Three yuan for skilled labor?

Two yuan for unskilled labor?

Wang Tieniu’s eyes widened in surprise. The average worker’s salary was only 40 yuan a month at this point in time. Normally when he built houses for others, he only charged one yuan per day for skilled labor and eighty-five cents for unskilled labor!

At Ni Yang’s, it was several times more!

Of course, Wang Tieniu was not the type to take advantage of others. Moreover, as Ni Yang was just a young girl, he certainly couldn’t take advantage of her!

“Yangyang, you don’t need to pay this much. Just give the market rate: one yuan for skilled labor and eighty-five cents for unskilled labor,” he said.

Ni Yang smiled and said, “No changes needed, but Uncle Tieniu, I have a request.”

“Go on.”

Ni Yang continued, “I hope all the renovation work can be done within a month.”

Wang Tieniu assured, “Don’t worry about it, there are so many of us. In fact, we can even get it done in half a month.”

It was only a 50 square meter shop, and there were twelve workers in total. As the saying goes, many hands make light work. Wang Tiezhu was not boasting.

So Ni Yang’s request wasn’t really a burden.

“There’s no need to rush,” Ni Yang continued, “As long as it’s completed within a month. I plan to open for business on the 2nd of next month.”

Wang Tieniu nodded, “Alright, alright, don’t worry.”

Ni Yang added, “Uncle Tieniu, do you know who in our village is the best at cooking?”

As a manly man, Wang Tieniu had no idea.

Zhou Qingshang laughed and said, “I know. Aunt Wang Jinfang makes amazing meals.”

Despite her differences with Aunt Jinfang, Zhou Qingshang spoke the truth; Aunt Jinfang indeed was a great cook.

Ni Yang nodded and then said, “Let’s get Aunt Jinfang, too. Have her cook lunch at the construction site, and she will get the wages of an unskilled worker.” Wang Tieniu felt a bit uncomfortable, “Yangyang, your wages are already high enough, there’s no need to provide lunch.”

Ni Yang laughed and said, “Uncle Tieniu, you’re all working hard and I can’t let you go hungry. That’s settled then. I’m putting my trust on you, Uncle Tieniu. Once you’ve made arrangements, meet me at the tram station in the city around noon tomorrow or the day after. I’ll take you to the shop. Now, I’ll be going.”

Zhou Qingshang and Wang Tiezhu hurried to see Ni Yang off.
