They all felt that Lin Xiaoyue’s idea was a little whimsical. They couldn’t believe that sweet potatoes could have so much value.

“There really isn’t enough space. However, if there’s not enough space, we’ll build it.” Lin Xiaoyue said directly.

“Anyway, we’ll just use the two plots of land around the manor.”

“One for the pig farm and the other for a chicken farm.”

“The pig farm will have a wall and a roof. Inside, we will divide the land into columns. One pigsty could have three or four pigs, and there will be hundreds of pigsty.”

She could have 300 to 400 pigs in a pig farm.

“Managing the pig farm is simple. Get four or five people to prepare pig feed for the pigs, and then two or three people to clean up the pig manure in the Pigsty.”

“Three to four hundred pigs sounds scary, but if we really take care of them, we don’t need more than ten people.”

Everyone was stunned.

That made sense.

Ordinary farmers would find it difficult to take care of two pigs.

That was because farmers had many other things to do besides taking care of the pigs.

If they didn’t do anything else and only took care of the pigs, it was indeed possible for seven or eight people to do that.

Lin Xiaoyue saw that the three heads didn’t say anything and seemed to have agreed, so she continued, “the chicken farm is the same.”

“The chicken farm is even simpler. You just need to arrange for people to feed, pick up eggs, and clean up chicken manure every day!”

They were convinced.

The chicken farm was actually worth a try.

After all, chickens were much cheaper than pigs.

If the chicken farm failed, the losses would be smaller.

Before the three of them could speak, Lin Xiaoyue continued.

“If we don’t have enough manpower, we’ll hire someone. It just so happens that I’m not planning to rent out the land of the three manors next year.”

“Then, I will issue an announcement to hire the villagers to help out in the manor.”

“Pay is according to age, gender, and job scope.”

The three men felt that they could not keep up with Lin Xiaoyue’s speed of speaking.

Not renting the land? Instead, they would pay the tenant farmers wages? Giving money to the tenants?

Lin Xiaoyue looked at them.

“Isn’t it difficult to rent the land out? Then I won’t rent it.”

“The villagers nearby are not willing to rent and choose to work in town because they feel that working is more profitable than farming.”

“Next year, we will also provide everyone with the opportunity to work. We will pay them by the day and at the end of the month.”

“The manor is closer to them, and they have work every day. There’s no reason for them not to come.”

The three men were shocked.

Although that was the case, hiring so many people would cost a lot of money.

Lin Xiaoyue could see the worry in the three of them and continued, “don’t worry about the salary. If it was just farming, a manor with 70 to 80 people would be enough.”

“We only want people between the ages of 12 and 62. We could relax the limit for those with good physical fitness.”

Don’t blame her for hiring child labor. There was really no such thing in ancient times.

In the countryside, a twelve-year-old child could sometimes work as well as a fifty-year-old.

“The wages will be 50 wen a day. Moreover, we have to make it clear that lazing around will not be tolerated.”

“If this news is released, 1 believe that many will come.”

Although the salary of 50 wen a day was not high, for those who are too old and young, they did not have the age advantage to work in the town.

Now that they had the chance to earn 50 wen a day, it was not bad.

“Of course, we also accept young adults.” Lin Xiaoyue continued.

“However, we should let them do some heavy work. For example, carrying water, fertilizing, and watering. And when it is time to harvest, we will let them transport the goods.”

“Of course, the salary is correspondingly higher. They will be paid according to their tasks.”

As everyone listened, they imagined the scene.

They realized that with the division of labor, she could actually make use of all the lands.

Moreover, the efficiency would probably be even higher.

“Also, the same principle applies to the pig and the chicken farms. However, they have to sign long-term contracts. We could not let people come and go as they please.”

The three men nodded..
