She Is Not a Witch Chapter 84: Wine factory workers
When Lorrain Hill was obsessed with researching new things, Mei Lu also swept away the differences in the family with the momentum of thunder. At the dinner of the meeting that day, the uncles and relatives in the family "voluntarily" handed over their hands. He has the right and business, and is arranged by the owner’s family to stay in the headquarters to continue recuperating.
A team of messengers and personnel departed from Hellis headquarters and began to travel to various branches. A large number of personnel changes occurred in various branches. Some were taken over by people sent by the main family, and some were directly promoted. Unrelated personnel, for a time, Hollis's family style became clear, as if the fat on his body was cut off, and he went into battle lightly. The vacant position also inspires the people who are usually unwilling, so that they see hope, and the whole chamber of commerce is rejuvenated.

Nissos House, winery.
brick and stone structure, the winery under the wooden beams is a busy scene, stacked goods, neatly stacked wine barrels, and huge wine tanks.
Some people kept putting boxes of grapes on the table. A group of women and children began to pick out the green, small, broken, moldy, debris, etc., and throw them away.
Another group of people grinded the selected grapes and put them in a wine vat. After a while, the fruity aroma began to spread in the factory. The vat was full of broken grapes, peels and juice.
One of the teenagers is also working hard. Wearing a mask and special gloves, he constantly crushes some grapes and puts them in a big bowl. When the grapes in the big bowl are full, he pours them into the vat. There were a lot of workers standing beside them, some were older and some were young, but he was the youngest.
The workers in these breweries work from morning to night, and only have one hour off at noon. Usually, there is basically no vacation. If you take temporary leave, you will be deducted. Although it is very hard, many people still rush to it. After all, every month Can earn a dozen silver coins, which is much better than farming at home.
As the evening was approaching, the teenager was a little tired, so he found an empty wine barrel and moved over and sat on it to continue working.
"Budd." An aunt next to him gestured to him to come down instead of sitting.
The young man was a little puzzled. I didn't affect my work in this way, but the aunt continued.
"It's not good for you to work like this, because you are going to gossip to others."
Then let the young man come down and remind him that if you look at it this way, you will probably say, such as ‘you are so comfortable’.
As a last resort, the boy obediently stepped down from the barrel, moved his sore legs and waist, and then continued to work.
At night, huge candlesticks light up to illuminate the lights in the masonry factory. Several employees lift the wine jars and pour them into the huge filter funnel next to them. Layers of gauze, purple-red grape juice flows slowly through the gauze filter.
After seeing it almost, several employees gathered the gauze and squeezed out the remaining juice, and finally got a bottle of slightly clear grape juice. After closing the lid of the wine tank, the group of talents started get off work.
"I'm finished, hurry up, I'm late to Granny Dela's cakes are all sold out."
One of the uncles started to remind him. His body was covered with stains. The smell of sweat mixed with the smell of grape juice. It smelled a bit unpleasant, but no one laughed at him because everyone was the same.
"Wait, cover this up and come, otherwise tomorrow old man Abu will deduct money again after seeing it."
"That old thing will pick you up, and I don't know who it is for."
"That's it, I didn't see the Nissos family giving him more money, and he was so disgusting, he changed the deduction."
"Perhaps he likes this feeling. You didn't see him like an aristocratic master every time he checked, he was dragged into the sky."
"It's done, go, get some meat tonight."
"Cut, would you like a treat? I can't afford it."
"It's okay, please."
"Don't, Manda, when are you so generous, maybe something happened again."
"Heh, you'll know later."
Several brewery workers walked away, leaving only one worker on duty at night. He locked the door and blew out most of the candle lights, leaving only a small amount of lighting, and he took it out afterwards. I put some dry cakes in the hot soup and slowly softened. After eating, I lay down on the table and took a nap. The night was still very long.
Bud, who worked in the factory during the day, also dragged his tired body back to where he lived. This is a relatively remote corner of Hopeland. The mess is a true portrayal of this area. There are no lights at night. Can smell street garbage and dead fish.
In the middle of a small square, there is a well, and there is a low house not far away. An old man leaned on the doorpost, his eyes half closed and half awake.
Budd stepped forward to get some water out. The barrel was a little heavy, so he could only pull half of it up.
tightly tugged on the rough rope, the burrs on the rope were a bit scratchy, and then the old wooden barrel swayed and slowly rose.
"What are you doing." A hoarse voice sounded behind him, like a ghost, Bud was startled, the rope in his hand was loose, and the barrel fell rapidly, pulling the rope and rubbing his hand a little Stinging, he quickly grabbed the thick rope again, and then looked back.
The old man leaning at the door has woken up. He stared at Bud with his cloudy and yellow eyes open, like a dead man.
"I...I take some water to drink, and rinse my body." Bud was a little scared, and said tremblingly.
"Where do you... live?" The old man continued to ask.
"I live in the red clay house behind the zelkova tree to the west. I only came a few days ago and was introduced by Granny Nanter." The boy said nervously.
"Oh."
The old man replied, his eyes closed again and ignored him.
Bud took a sip of water, then rinsed his body again, and left quickly.
The next day, which is also the day of pay, Bud has been working at this brewery for two months, and only then did he get his first month’s wages, 12 silver coins.
He carefully wrapped the silver coins in the belt of his clothes before returning~IndoMTL.com~ but today is not as stable as before.
Several people who smelled of sweat and alcohol blocked Bud in the alley. They had planned and waited for this young man, and the leader was Manda, a worker in the winery before.
"Boy, are you happy, today I sent the money."
Compared with Bud, who is not very big, these adults are very tall. They stand together as if they are about to block the sky.
was shrouded in the shadows of these people, Bud could only keep backing up, and finally leaned against the dust-stained wall.
"Be honest, take the money out of the newcomer, this is the rule, okay?" One of the rough guys said, his skin is dark and his mouth is full of yellow teeth.
"No..." Bud was a little scared, but he still didn't want to hand it over. This is what he finally earned. After a long hard work, he still has to pay the rent to buy food.
slap——
A slap slapped Bud around the world, and the whole person was dumbfounded, a hot sensation appeared on his face, and then he had a pain in his calf and was kicked, but he still insisted on not falling.
slap——
is another slap.
"You and others know each other."
Several people next to him began to tear his clothes, looking for the money.
Bud hugged himself tightly, slowly slipped off the wall, squatted on the ground, cursing sound came from his ear, and then he kept beating. The final blow kicked him on the head. Fainted.
When he woke up, it was already dark, his clothes and belt had been torn apart, and there were only 3 of the 12 silver coins left in it. He knelt on the ground and took the remaining silver coins, one One held it in his hand, pinched his nails tightly into the flesh, and howled in a low voice, hot tears ran across his face and fell into the dust.
