Song Sancheng suddenly became anxious:
"Do you really want to live like this? Picking tea leaves isn't something that happens in a day or two, why hire so many people?"
This puzzled Song Tan: "But last year when our family hired people to pick tea leaves, we indeed hired quite a few. But it took many days to finish the work!"
Back then there were only 5 acres of tea gardens, wasn't it the same? Just accumulating days instead of number of people.
Song Sancheng: ...True, yes.
"But we can't hire so many people all at once, some people don't pay attention to their work, and pick tea leaves poorly."
This is indeed true.
But now we're using electric scissors. With the tea picking workers securely holding the core, moving forward with scissors in hand... Even if the picking is not great, it's just an issue of depth and detail. It's a bit troublesome but not serious.
