Praising employees is one of the most effective ways to tap their potential.
But we can’t just blindly praise, we must also have some not-so-pleasant rebuke.
Cheng Wanwan looked at everyone and said: "I noticed that the dry firewood in the firewood house will be slightly reduced. Some people will bring some dry firewood back. A piece of firewood is not worth a lot of money, but it can reflect a person's personality." Regarding moral standards, I won’t care about what happened before. If there is a next time, once I know about it, I will be fired directly. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
Everyone spoke together, their voices thundering.
Two or three of them secretly passed by Ganchai. They were immediately ashamed and secretly decided in their hearts that they must work harder in the future to live up to Dashan Niang's kindness...
"Looking back at the past month, I am filled with emotion and excitement, and I look forward to the way forward. Because of you, I am a hundred times more confident and ambitious." Cheng Wanwan concluded, "...I believe that with everyone's efforts, Our Dahe Village will have a better tomorrow, and everyone in Dahe Village will be happier!"
"Bah bang bang!"
Everyone clapped spontaneously, and their palms turned red.
"Okay, let's break up the meeting!" Cheng Wanwan said warmly, "Team leader, stay here and have a meeting."
Everyone in the main room dispersed, leaving only six team leaders, warehouse manager Wu Xiaochui, and HR administrator Mrs. Zhao.
Keeping them here for the meeting is to hand over the tasks on the team leader's shoulders. The team leader's salary is higher, and he will naturally bear more responsibilities...
Each person in charge also has to speak individually.
When it was Li Xiu'e's turn, she asked her to cough, and her face turned red until the end.
Zheng Liuya asked with concern: "Sister Xiu'e, I heard from Aunt Wang that your son had a high fever last night. Is it passed on to you? You are the one who has to go to work. You should leave the care of your son to your daughter-in-law." Come on, don’t be brave..."
"Ahem, my daughter-in-law is also sick." Li Xiu'e coughed, "I'm fine, but my throat... my throat has been a little itchy. By the way, Dashan Niang, where did I just say?"
Cheng Wanwan took a sip of tea and frowned slightly: "Has your son's high fever gone?"
When she talked about this, Li Xiu'e almost burst into tears: "I started to have a fever yesterday afternoon. When I came back from work, I was so feverish that I was delirious... I took care of me all night by the bedside. I probably didn't sleep well. In the morning I feel a little uncomfortable when I get up, but it’s okay, I won’t delay my work..."
Cheng Wanwan nodded: "Sister Xiu'e, don't go to work. Go back and rest first. This is considered sick leave. No wages will be deducted, and full attendance will not be affected."
There are several people in a room in the workshop. If one person coughs, the saliva will spread in the air. It is not known how many people will be infected. In ancient times, the cost of getting sick was too high. She did not want all the money earned by the people in the workshop to be spent. On medical expenses.
Li Xiu'e waved her hands quickly: "Dashan Niang, I can still work, it's okay..."
Cheng Wanwan deliberately said with a straight face: "This is an order. Go back and rest for two days before talking."
Old Mrs. Zhao echoed: "How many people don't dare to take a break because their wages will be deducted for asking for leave. Now you have money to take a break. Why should you push it out for such a good opportunity? Okay, go back quickly. My head hurts when I hear you cough."
Li Xiu'e returned home with great gratitude.
Everyone in the workshop continued to be busy.
Cheng Wanwan noticed that during the meeting, many men and women were still wearing single clothes.
This was the winter month. Although it hadn't snowed yet, it was already very cold. She secretly wore thermal underwear on the inside and two winter coats of this era on the outside, so she felt warm all over her body. The workshop was open all day long. When burning firewood, even if the temperature is higher than outside, wearing only a single layer of clothing is still too little.
After their wages were paid out just now, these people must be reluctant to spend it on themselves. Some of them are reserved to marry their children, and some are used to buy clothes for their children, cut some meat for tooth sacrifices... Also, some people bought land on credit from her before, but now After the wages are paid, half of them will be returned... There are still many people in the village who live in thatched houses, and they will probably have to save money to build adobe houses next year.
Cheng Wanwan took out a pen and paper, and made some calculations. She used the lowest coarse cloth to make clothes. A single suit was made of eight feet of cloth, and two layers of winter clothes were made, that is sixteen feet. The cloth was purchased for a total of thirty-two cents, plus Including labor costs, the cost of a piece of clothing is about forty yuan... Each employee is given a set of winter clothes, which she can still afford as a benefit.
Just think of it as giving out the year-end bonus in advance.
She called Mrs. Zhao over and expressed her thoughts.
The old lady's first reaction was to calculate in her mind how much money it would cost. After calculating, she found that it was more than three taels of silver.
Well, to today's eldest daughter-in-law, three taels of silver is really nothing.
Her old man came down and said, "Okay, I'll take care of this. I'll buy cloth first, and then find someone to make the clothes."
Cheng Wanwan drew a sample and made it into uniform clothing, and also embroidered the four words "Dahe Zhaoshi" on the chest, so that the employees would have a sense of belonging.
She wrote the order, paid three taels of silver and handed it to the old lady.
She felt more and more that she needed an accountant, but it seemed that there was no suitable child.
The second child likes to run around, and Dawang is the strongest follower of the second child. Dashan and Sanniu, let alone Dashan, are completely unsuitable, and Sidan is not suitable for studying.
There were some clever children in the village, but she still felt a little distrustful of letting other people's children manage money.
Her eyes fell on Wu Xiaochui.
Although this child is also a child of another family, he is a biological sibling with Hui Niang and can be considered as half of his own family.
If Wu Xiaochui was trained to be an accountant, specifically responsible for managing money and writing account books, she would save a lot of trouble.
"Little Hammer, come on."
As soon as Cheng Wanwan opened her mouth, Wu Xiaochui came over immediately and said respectfully, "Auntie."
"How do you feel about managing the warehouse every day?" She asked with a smile, "Is there anything you need help with?"
Wu Xiaochui shook his head: "Managing the warehouse is not difficult. I can handle basic trivial matters by myself."
He spends most of his time sitting at the door of the warehouse, checking the vouchers and leaving the warehouse when someone comes.
When no one comes, it is his own time. He takes a branch, writes and draws on the ground, and becomes familiar with the writing of each word.
Cheng Wanwan smiled and said: "Then I will give you another task."
Wu Xiaochui nodded immediately: "Auntie, just ask."
He had not done much work all day long, but today he actually received a salary of 420 yuan. The money was a bit hot for him to hold.
"The warehouse mainly stores soap and some production materials. Next, I want the warehouse to also be responsible for managing money." Cheng Wanwan said, "In the future, some expenses, such as the money for collecting dry firewood, money for buying honey and goat milk, the money for employees Wages, etc., all come out of the warehouse. Because money is involved, the requirements for accounting books are higher. You have to learn how to do accounting systematically. Are you willing to learn?"
Wu Xiaochui's eyes were full of disbelief: "Aunt, aunt wants me to take care of the money?"
His mother didn't dare to let him take more than three cents, for fear that he would spend it randomly outside... How could my aunt dare to trust him so much?
"It might be a little difficult to do the accounting." Cheng Wanwan took a sip of tea and said, "You don't know much about reading. I'm worried that you won't be able to learn."
"I will study hard!" How could Wu Xiaochui let go of such an opportunity? He said loudly, "Although I don't know many words and my writing is not good, but I am willing to learn and will study hard. As long as I am an aunt I will definitely learn whatever you teach me!”
Cheng Wanwan nodded with satisfaction: "Starting from today, study with me for half an hour every night."
Not only do you need to learn modern accounting methods, but you also need to learn ancient accounting techniques. Only by mastering the two methods can you truly be a good accountant.
