Chapter 246 - Chapter 246: Everyone scrambled to help Gu Chen with the farm work

Hearing the two hundred yuan, Tian Laosi was shocked, and his hand trembled, so that the ashes fell onto the mat under his feet.

He hastily reached out to wipe the ashes.

Gu Chen grabbed the steering wheel with one hand, while the other reached out to stop Tian Laosi, who was about to squat down.

'Fourth Brother, I'll clean it up if it gets dirty. You're being too formal,'

Gu Chen was a clean person, but he also understood that a car was a consumable product that could be cleaned if it got dirty. Besides, Tian Laosi hadn't meant to do it on purpose.

There was no need to let someone clean it up for him. He still needed the other person's help.

Tian Laosi looked at Gu Chen and couldn't help but swallow.

My goodness, this is too much money. If you farm for a month, you can barely make ends meet, and you might earn 60 or 70 yuan at best.

If you're lucky, you might earn 80 or so. Gu Chen's asking for 200 yuan just for his mouthful, which is almost four times the price.

'But... but I still have land at home...' Tian Laosi hesitated.

There was nothing he could do. He had just planted the seeds and they were already growing. He couldn't delay.

Gu Chen smiled, 'It's fine. It's not a big deal. As long as you keep an eye on everyone's work and don't slack off, that's actually enough.'

What he lacked was nothing more than a trustworthy and experienced person.

Tian Laosi obviously had both.

Hearing that there was such a good deal, Tian Laosi was instantly overwhelmed with excitement.

'Chenzi, are you serious?'

Gu Chen nodded, 'Do I look like I'm joking?'

'How about this, just give me 60, that's fine,' Tian Laosi said.

He was really an honest person, the kind of person who didn't even know how to joke. He hadn't done that much work himself, and he felt uneasy about taking so much money for nothing.

Gu Chen smiled and said, 'Fourth Brother, don't be polite with me. To be honest, I don't think 200 is enough. Besides, I know your family is having a hard time right now. It's no fun being formal with me.'

Tian Laosi's family has always been struggling to make ends meet, which is why sometimes he helps people with odd jobs.

He really appreciates Tian Laosi.

Paying him a little extra is also to help him solve his family's difficulties. As long as there is enough money, he won't do other jobs.

Then he will definitely be able to concentrate more on his work.

Tian Laosi didn't expect Gu Chen to be so good to him, and he was immediately full of gratitude.

He pursed his lips and spoke with conviction to Gu Chen.

'Chenzi, I will always remember how good you have been to me. Don't worry, I can't promise anything else, but I can promise that I will not neglect any of the work on the land, and I will definitely make you satisfied!'

Gu Chen has been really good to himself recently. The family went to Gu Chen's house for dinner and took a lot of fruit from his house.

Gu Chen didn't mind at all, and he always gave a lot of money whenever he asked for help.

There is no one else like Gu Chen, who has been so good to himself.

The village is not big, and the car arrived on the ridge in a few minutes.

The afternoon sun shone down on the yellow earth. Everyone was wearing straw hats and carrying hoes in their hands. Some were sowing seeds, others watering the crops. It looked really pleasant.

When they heard the sound of a car, they all turned their heads and looked behind them.

As soon as they saw it, there was another round of discussions.

'Is that Chenzi here? This new car really looks a lot better than that van!'

'I'm jealous. He traded in his van for a car, and I'm still fifty bucks short of trading in my bike for a tricycle!'

Everyone chimed in.

Li You'e was also working with her head bowed. When she heard that the car belonged to Gu Chen, she immediately dropped the hoe in her hand and walked over to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen and Tian Laosi got out of the car and looked over at the field.

Tian Laosi pointed at the land that Gu Chen had originally rented, gesturing with his hands.

'This area, this area, is all yours. If you want to plant, you need to talk to someone and find someone.'

After all, he was being paid, and Tian Laosi is now more concerned about Gu Chen's land than his own land.

Li You'e looked at the two of them smiling and walking over, 'Chenzi, are you going to plant the seeds?'

Gu Chen nodded in response, 'Yes, Auntie Li.'

He still needs to earn money!

There's no time to waste.

Upon hearing this, Li You'e looked at Gu Chen and said, 'Then you'll need someone to plant all that land, won't you?'

Her eldest daughter and son-in-law have always lived in the city, and recently her son-in-law was told at work that he had done something dishonest, and was laid off. He has been looking for work for a long time without success.

If Gu Chen is going to hire someone, it might as well be her eldest son-in-law.

It's not a good idea to keep him at home doing nothing, and if he comes, I can see my daughter and grandson every day.

Gu Chen nodded in agreement, 'Yes, I think I need about ten people. But for this kind of work, the villagers are very familiar with the land, so I don't think it will be a problem.'

Gu Chen was right. The land he rented was from the families of those in the village who didn't want to farm. Those people definitely wouldn't come to farm.

Those who could farm were all in the fields.

So Gu Chen planned to just ask, who would be willing to help, 20 yuan per mu per month, just help himself plant the land while doing his own work every day, and just take care of it.

In this way, Hao Chu could save a lot of money, and it was also very fair, whoever worked more would earn more.

Hearing that Gu Chen was looking for someone to help, everyone couldn't help but come over to join the fun.

Boss Ma looked curious. 'Chen, how are you going to plant the land?'

Gu Chen looked at him and smiled. 'Boss Ma, twenty yuan per mu per month. Seeing that you're in good health, how about three mu?'

In fact, everyone who actually farms knows that the busy season is only a matter of a few days. Planting and ploughing the soil, as long as the seeds are in the soil, all that's needed is to water them occasionally and check on their growth, and that's it.

Boss Ma didn't expect such a good deal and was overjoyed.

If there was a shortage of money, who wasn't short of money? He also wanted to make money.

'Five mu of land, is that okay? If it's okay, my wife and I will come together!'

Gu Chen grinned, 'Okay, 20 yuan per mu, as long as you can guarantee the survival rate, no matter how many mu you have, if you can plant it, I'll give you all 100 mu.'

Hearing Gu Chen say this, Boss Ma was so excited that he started rubbing his hands together.

'Oh, that's great! Then we have a deal. My family has five mu of land, and it'll be 100 yuan a month. Don't try to weasel out of it!'

One hundred yuan! With that,

he could pay for his youngest son's tuition and living expenses.

This was truly a great thing.

'And I, Chen Zi, can also plant it. Our family will also come up with five mu of land!' Wang Wu said while folding his five fingers.

Those who did not contract the land to Gu Chen at the beginning were actually the more capable farmers in the village.

The reason they did not contract it out was because farming was profitable.

For them, the hardship and tiredness really didn't matter, as long as they could earn money, they could do it themselves!

Even if they had to rush home by 8pm, they were happy.

'Me, me, I'll take care of the three mu of land!'

Everyone was arguing with each other about who would help Gu Chen with the farming, and it was a lively scene.
