Chapter 520: Change your name collectively (Don’t remember the name, I will remind you later)
I have to say, the girl that the human trafficker was going to sell to a brothel was really pretty after she washed her face.
Although she didn't look very well, probably because she didn't eat or drink well before, her facial features were delicate and I felt pity for her.
Her brother was injured and couldn't be used right away.
But the younger brother of the other pair of siblings can be used.
So the next day, he received the difficult task from Shen Youyou.
"Do you know where there are little beggars?"
"It's at the City God Temple outside the city."
As expected, the little beggars all lived in the temple. Shen Youyou's eyes lit up:
"Then go find me a little beggar who is willing to sign a ten-year work contract. A single girl, or a brother or sister, will do."
By not going through human traffickers, she can spend less money, and the extra money can be used to provide nutritional supplements for these poor children.
Anything is better than letting the unscrupulous human traffickers make money.
She had made up her mind to choose her future recruits from these fatherless and motherless little beggars.
They worked for her, and she provided them with food, lodging, and wages, giving them a different life.
Moreover, the population of the Nine Clans is limited, and the manpower of Tangjia Village has been almost used up.
It is better to choose from orphans than from other villages.
Also, she never thought of letting her family members, whether uncles, aunts, or brothers and sisters, be trapped in the workshop working all day.
Shen Youyou has always believed that people’s motivation for making money is to enjoy life better, rather than to become slaves to money.
If you just work when you open your eyes every day, and no matter how much money you earn, you don’t have the chance to spend it, then what is the meaning of life?
And her understanding of spending money is also the kind of leisurely shopping.
Instead of taking time to buy something, going in a hurry and coming back in a hurry, just buying those things because they are necessities.
Therefore, slowly, when the manpower is trained, the family members of the Jiu clan only need to do some management work, instead of repeating boring work every day like an assembly line.
In the next few days, not only Shuntianfu, but also several nearby counties,
Shen Youyou even sent people to look for these orphans.
So, after five days,
When Shen Youyou brought these orphans back to Tangjia Village for the first time,
Standing at the door of the workshop.
There were rows of thin but neatly dressed girls and boys of all ages.
Mr. Shen almost burned his mouth with his pipe. He pointed at some little kids who were only five or six years old, his hands shaking a little: "You have to work at such a young age?"
Shen Youyou looked in the direction of Grandpa's hand and understood instantly: "What kind of work can such a young child do? What can they do? At most, they can help you collect firewood, but I can't not bring it back.
These are the little beggars from several counties. They have no parents.
At other times, the older beggars can take care of the younger ones, but I took the older ones in, and I had to take the younger ones with me, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to survive.”
Although the other old men and women in the Jiu clan agreed with her, they still had concerns. For example, how can we take care of so many children if they come with you?
Although they have enough food to eat now, children of this age still need to be looked after.
"It's okay. We have gold ingots. We can bring our children with us, or even a dozen or so. It's just like herding sheep. Let's do it together."
No matter how easily and confidently his sister spoke, Shen Yuanbao felt that the pressure on his shoulders suddenly increased a lot.
Fortunately, among the 200 people brought back by Shen Youyou, there were only about 20 kids who were unable to work, and the rest were between twelve and fifteen years old.
The old ladies first assigned accommodation to these half-grown children. Anyway, there were many empty rooms on the second and third floors of the new workshop, so for the time being, twelve people shared one room.
When building the workshop, Shen Zhiqiu considered that the upper floors were not suitable for placing stoves or machines.
Therefore, a large bunk bed was built in each room, and each room had a kang on the north and south sides, so that people could sew or make hairpins conveniently at the head of the kang.
After all, it is a waste of energy to build tables and chairs. It would be better to use it as staff dormitories.
After the rooms were assigned, the girls were given cloth and plastic cotton and asked to make their own bedding, but they also made some for the boys.
Of course, the boys didn't have to make their own bedding and work clothes, but they couldn't sit idle.
I handed it over directly to my older brothers, and taught them how to make various plastic products.
By the way, you also need to install all the plastic light guides in your home.
In the meantime, Shen Youyou also asked the grandmothers to train these girls. After all, when the supermarket opens, they will all work as waiters.
It was something the old ladies said unintentionally that added another task to Shen Youyou.
Just give these people names.
In the words of the grandmothers, there are so many people with so many different names, and many have the same name, so if you call out "Goudanzi", several people will respond.
Sister Erya also told her: "There are quite a few of them named Daya and Erya."
She could only sigh: "The ancients were too careless in naming people."
Therefore, Shen Youyou locked herself in the room again. She not only had to give names to the maids and servants, but also had to give names to her brothers and sisters at home.
In the words of Mr. Shen:
"Are these people you bought considered our maids and servants?
When you name them later, why not give your brothers and sisters new names as well, so that the young lady's name won't be as nice as the maid's."
Shen Youyou thought about it and realized, yes!
So, the eldest sister's full name is Shen Qingqing, the second sister's full name is Shen Miaomiao, and the Taohua sister's full name was also changed to Wang Chuchu.
He and his other brothers and sisters also became famous in the family.
But to be honest, when people talk to each other, they are still used to calling each other by nicknames, and I'm afraid it will take some time to change that.
The maids and servants were easy to name, Shen Youyou named them according to the twelve months of the year.
For example, if their birthday is in the first month of the lunar calendar, it is called Yinyue, Jiayue, Yuanyue, Duanyue, Huayue, and Xiazheng.
...
Those born in February stood in a row, and Shen Erya also held a piece of paper and read out the names one by one.
He said to the leading servant, "Your name is Jianmao."
"Thank you for the name, young lady."
"Your name is Liyue, your name is Hanyue, your name is Huachao... Huayue, Zhuying, "
Shen Daya looked at the tall and thin maid in front of her and said, "If you can't be the first in March, I have to hold my head high when I look at you."
The little girl was not afraid of people and answered directly: "To answer your question, Miss, I take after my father, my father is tall."
Daya nodded: "Well, from now on you will be called Jichun."
He also gave names to the other maids and servants, naming them as he went: "Yue Tao, Chen Yue, Ying Shi, Can Yue, Tong Yue."
Shen Jinxing also had a formal name, Shen Xiaoxiao. The girls of her generation all had double-character names similar to Shen Youyou's.
