"Little boss, did you call for me?"
At 3:30 p.m., Aunt Qian Huahua came over. Yuan Tiantian was also sitting in the downstairs living - room.
They had made an appointment for this time earlier.
After Aunt Qian Huahua came in, she asked curiously.
Yuan Tiantian nodded at Aunt Qian Huahua and then said,
"Are you going to harvest the fruits from the orchard tomorrow?"
Hearing Yuan Tiantian's question, Aunt Qian Huahua nodded, her face beaming with excitement.
"Yes, yes. Your Uncle Li checked the fruits on the trees the other day. They're all ripe and ready to be picked!"
Saying this, Aunt Qian Huahua was extremely shocked. These fruits were not only big in size, but also looked so fresh and juicy. She hadn't tasted them yet, but according to Uncle Li, judging from their appearance, they must be good.
Aunt Qian Huahua also thought so. The fruits were simply too appealing.
Moreover, when you walked under the fruit trees, you could clearly smell the unique sweet fragrance of the fruits.
"Auntie, I have two things that I need you and Uncle Li to help with."
Yuan Tiantian looked at Aunt Qian Huahua and then told her the two things she had in mind.
The first one was to ask Aunt Qian Huahua and Uncle Li to arrange the students who would go to the back - mountain for fruit - picking tomorrow.
"Let them pick whatever they want. You just need to keep an eye on them. As long as they don't pick unripe fruits or waste them, just let them be."
"Also, when it's time to harvest the fruits, if they're around, take them to watch and let them pick.
Let them pick as much as they can. Don't worry about anything else."
Aunt Qian Huahua nodded immediately after hearing this.
"No problem. You can leave it all to us!"
What a piece of cake!
Aunt Qian Huahua looked so confident. Seeing this, Yuan Tiantian smiled slightly.
"What about the other thing?"
Aunt Qian Huahua noticed that Yuan Tiantian had only mentioned one thing, so she quickly asked about the other one. Yuan Tiantian didn't keep her in suspense and told her right away after she asked.
"The other thing is related to our employees on the back - mountain!"
Related to the back - mountain employees?
Aunt Qian Huahua was startled. Did something go wrong with the employees on the back - mountain? Had she missed something, but the little boss knew about it?
Just thinking about this possibility made Aunt Qian Huahua anxious.
"Little boss, what's the matter?"
Aunt Qian Huahua looked extremely worried. Seeing this, Yuan Tiantian knew that she might have misunderstood something and quickly explained.
"Auntie, don't worry. It's okay. It's a good thing, not a problem."
Aunt Qian Huahua and Uncle Li were very serious and responsible. After Yuan Tiantian had reminded Aunt Qian Huahua last time, Aunt Qian Huahua had taken better care of the back - mountain and managed the employees there more carefully. There really hadn't been any bad things happening.
All the employees were well - behaved. In particular, Yuan Tiantian had originally thought that Xia Yanghua, the village head's wife, would cause some trouble, but she had also been working honestly and diligently.
There was nothing wrong.
Actually, what Yuan Tiantian didn't know was that Xia Yanghua had really wanted to play some tricks before. Especially after she accidentally heard that the vegetables planted on the back - mountain that Yuan Tiantian had contracted could be sold at such a high price, she had some ideas.
But it was useless to have ideas because of Aunt Qian Huahua's arrangement. Everyone was supervised by each other.
Moreover, Aunt Qian Huahua seemed to be afraid that Xia Yanghua would cause trouble, so she assigned Xia Yanghua to work with an honest woman who usually didn't get along well with Xia Yanghua.
In this way, with the constant supervision of the other woman, Xia Yanghua couldn't stir up any trouble.
We have to admit that Aunt Qian Huahua really knew Xia Yanghua well and knew how to deal with her.
Just like this, Xia Yanghua's desire to play some tricks was instantly extinguished.
Of course, Yuan Tiantian didn't know about these things, and Aunt Qian Huahua didn't mention them either.
She thought it was a normal and reasonable arrangement and there was no need to come to Yuan Tiantian to show off.
"Then, what is it?"
Aunt Qian Huahua was relieved to hear that it was a good thing instead of a bad one. She looked at Yuan Tiantian expectantly.
"Well, everyone has been working on the back - mountain for quite a while."
"Since we're going to harvest the fruits today, I've decided that each person can take one kind of the fruits harvested tomorrow. In addition, I'll prepare a vegetable gift package for everyone, with six kinds of vegetables in it."
"The total weight of the vegetable package should be about 8 - 10 pounds."
"Auntie, you go back and discuss with Uncle Li about which vegetables to choose, and then you can handle this tomorrow.
I'll ask Bai Jingyang to go and help you with the record - keeping and so on."
Yuan Tiantian thought that it was time to give these villagers some benefits during this harvest season.
There were so many fruit trees, and they would need a lot of people to help tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Yuan Tiantian added one more thing.
"Also, if you don't have enough people to harvest the fruits tomorrow and you need to hire some temporary workers, besides paying them their wages, each of them can also get two kinds of fruits. You and Uncle Li can decide which ones. I have no objections."
After saying all this, Yuan Tiantian looked at Aunt Qian Huahua, who nodded seriously after hearing this.
"This is a good idea. Everyone has been really busy recently."
The vegetables on the back - mountain grew very fast, and the daily tasks were not light. Moreover, perhaps because of the good soil quality, the weeds grew even faster. So, the task of weeding every day would take a lot of manpower.
"I'll thank the little boss on behalf of everyone first!"
Aunt Qian Huahua felt really pleased. Yuan Tiantian's actions clearly showed that she cared about her employees.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought of these things.
"Don't worry. I'll go back and discuss with Uncle Li right away."
"I'll definitely complete this task perfectly for you tomorrow!"
"I'll make sure you're satisfied!"
Aunt Qian Huahua's joking words made Yuan Tiantian burst out laughing. Aunt Qian Huahua was becoming more and more playful.
However, Yuan Tiantian didn't chat with her about this. She still had one last thing to remind her of.
"You, Uncle Li and Uncle Qing, each of you can take two of each kind of fruit, and you can also get double - portioned vegetable packages."
Yuan Tiantian naturally wouldn't treat these three managers badly. She gave them double the amount of things that the ordinary employees got.
Aunt Qian Huahua felt a bit embarrassed when she heard this.
"This, this is not good, right?
We can't take so much."
Yuan Tiantian immediately shook her head with a smile and said firmly,
"You deserve it. The three of you manage the place every day and have to think about a lot of things. It's only right that you get a little more."
Hearing Yuan Tiantian's firm words, Aunt Qian Huahua finally didn't refuse anymore.
"Okay, I'll go back and tell them. They'll definitely be happy!"
They would really be happy. The vegetables on the back - mountain were extremely delicious. The employees only had a vague idea of the prices they were sold for outside, but these three people knew very well.
It could be said that the little boss Yuan Tiantian's welfare tomorrow would be worth about ten thousand yuan.
She was really a kind - hearted person!
