章 662: Unstoppable Footsteps

"Oh? Why?" Fangzheng was puzzled. One Finger Village always employed the experienced. As long as one was diligent and willing to work, everybody would attempt to snatch them. At the end of the day, people who were familiar left one at ease. Unless the person was too lazy and unwilling to do work, it was quite unlikely they wouldn't find any work. However, the Zhou brothers were obviously diligent and hardworking men. Why would no one employ them?

Zhou Ziyuan said in resignation, "They all use machines now. The machines are like monsters. They sputter on the moment they enter the fields before quickly returning, and with that, the paddy is completely harvested. Although we are experienced and are fast enough with good technique, human strength is ultimately limited. We can't compete with machines. Furthermore, the cost of running those machines is lower than what we get paid… Sigh."
