"Hey! We're hiring! We're hiring! Qiqu Pavilion Workshop is hiring! As long as you have the strength and can work, we're hiring all of you. 30 copper coins per person per day. If you do well, you'll be rewarded! If you have experience in building houses, 80 copper coins per person per day. If you want to sign up to earn some money, come and take a look! "
In the streets and alleys of Chang 'an City, as well as the villages outside of Chang' an City, one could see two or three servants in green clothes and hats shouting at the top of their lungs.
"30 copper coins per day? That high? You're not lying, are you? "
In the first year of Zhen Guan, prices were very low. Correspondingly, wages were not very high either. Ordinary people would only earn 10 copper coins per day if they worked tirelessly at the docks to carry sacks. Those who helped people build houses also earned about the same price per day.
If you met a boss with a conscience, they would give you a raise. However, 20 copper coins per day was already the limit. Now, Li Zexuan was offering 30 copper coins per day, which was very attractive. The onlookers were all eager to make a move. The only thing they were worried about was the authenticity of this recruitment advertisement.
"Oh! Brother, isn't it wrong for you to say that ~? Do you see the clothes I'm wearing? This is something only the people from Qiqu Pavilion can wear! Do you know Qiqu Pavilion? That's our young master's business! Do you know our young master? He's a baron personally conferred by the emperor, the recently promoted Crown Prince Zhan Shi! Let me tell you, if the workshop manager didn't say that I didn't have enough strength, I would have done it myself. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come all the way to Liu Village to recruit people! "
When the servant heard that someone doubted him, he was immediately unhappy. This fellow was also a chatterbox. He put his hands on his hips and talked endlessly. He looked like a "shrew scolding the streets".
"Oh! You're really from Qiqu Pavilion! I've seen you in the city before! I say, Liu Buju, you didn't look carefully before you spoke! The men from Li County are extremely wealthy. Why would they care about your little wage? Hey, brother, don't you think I'm right? "
A tall and thin young man first reprimanded the villager who questioned him. Then, he turned around and said to the servant from Qiqu Pavilion.
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Why would my Lord Jue care about such a small amount of money! Those who have come into contact with my Lord Jue know that he is kind-hearted and can't bear to see others suffer. Why would he do such a deceitful thing? "
The servant of the Strange Interest Pavilion nodded in satisfaction, then proudly raised his head and said.
"Yeah! Liu Buju, you really are an ungrateful brat. Previously, when Li Xiannan made the curved plough, he helped everyone in the manor. How can you say that ~! "
"Hmm, Liu Buju, you heartless rascal! You dare to doubt such a good person like Lord Li ~? I hope you don't get it up for the rest of your life ~! Brother, I, Liu Bizhi, sign up ~! Don't even mention 30 copper coins a day. If Li Xiansheng needs my help, I'm willing to do it for 10 copper coins a day ~! "
"Damn! Since when did I suspect Li Xiannan? I didn't know that he was sent by Li Xiannan! Brother, I didn't recognize Mount Tai just now. Please be magnanimous. My name is Liu Fuji, not Liu Buju. I also want to sign up ~! "
The man in gray didn't expect that a casual question would put him in a situation where he was "surrounded by enemies". He quickly went forward to explain.
Seeing that everyone's attitude had changed and they were all polite, the servant of the Strange Interest Pavilion suddenly felt a sense of superiority. Working in the Strange Interest Pavilion was still the best! Uh, that's not right. If I can be transferred to work for Lord Jue, I'll have a better future ~!
The servant of the Strange Interest Pavilion said happily.
"Haha ~! Don't fight or fight. As long as you have enough strength, you can be chosen! Yes ~! Do you see this rock in front of me ~? If you can lift it above your head, our workshop wants it ~! Everyone, line up and take your time ~! "
The servant pointed at the one-foot-wide rock in front of him and said loudly.
Although Li Zexuan was short of people, he didn't hire just anyone. Those who didn't have enough strength would only cause trouble. The rock used to test people's physical strength was only 40 to 50 pounds. It shouldn't be difficult for most hardworking farmers.
"Hey ~! Such a big rock ~? Easy ~! I'll go first ~! "
The one who spoke earlier was called Liu Bizhi. He stepped forward and said loudly.
"Bullsh * t ~! I'm the one who came first ~! "
.....
He had finished his work and assigned the work to his subordinates. Li Zexuan had a rare moment of leisure in the afternoon. He sat under the pavilion in the courtyard, enjoying the breeze and eating iced grapes. He continued to write "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality".
Recently, he was so busy that he didn't have time to write novels. If it wasn't for a batch of manuscripts, "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" would probably stop updating in the next few days. The fans of "The Mortal" would definitely go crazy.
While he was writing happily ~, Li Zexuan suddenly felt someone beside him. He looked up and saw that it was the little fatty, Li Tai. He couldn't help but stop writing and asked curiously, "Hmm ~? Qingque, why are you here ~? "
"Hmm, nothing much ~! I'm just bored in the prince's mansion, so I came out for a walk ~! "
Li Tai looked at the manuscripts on the stone table and answered absent-mindedly.
Ever since Li Zexuan deliberately practiced writing for a period of time, the matter of ghostwriting for "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" was no longer his turn. This was because Li Zexuan's writing speed was much faster than his. This directly led to him not being able to enjoy the "privilege" of not being able to read the later chapters of "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" in advance.
"You can just walk around to my house ~? Brat, you're too good at walking around ~? "
Li Zexuan rolled his eyes and said.
"Hehe ~! Didn't I hear from Imperial Father that Xiaoxuan, you've already finished designing our Yanhuang College? This prince specially came to take a look ~! "
Li Tai laughed dryly and said the truth.
"Hey ~! Wait ~! That's my Yanhuang College ~! When did it become ours ~? "
Li Zexuan didn't expect that this little fatty not only had so much fat, but also had such a thick skin. He couldn't help but be angry.
"Hey, Xiaoxuan, you're not interesting ~! Back then, I was the first, ah, no, I was the first to support Yanhuang College ~! Even if you're not grateful, you can't bite the hand that feeds you ~! "
"Scram ~! I see that you haven't attended classes for a few days, so you've forgotten the dignity of a teacher ~! "
Li Zexuan lifted the "big sword" beside him, slammed the table, and said fiercely.
"Uh, uh ~! Fine, fine, fine ~! Yours, yours, it's all yours, alright ~? This prince is only here to take a look at your sand table, is there a need for this ~? "
The little fatty immediately dodged and kept a relatively complete distance from Li Zexuan. He knew that even if there were ten of him, he wouldn't be able to defeat Li Zexuan ~!
"Heh ~! The sand table is in the side hall, if you want to take a look ~! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and sat down to continue writing his novel ~!
