After hearing Jiang Michia say so much in one breath, Jiang Youcheng scratched his scalp and thought for a while, and finally raised his head and looked at Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu swallowed the last mouthful of rice porridge in the bowl without any hesitation, "I think my daughter is right."
Since Jiang Michia woke up, this person has become more and more clever, and everything she says becomes more and more reasonable. Almost everything she does according to her words is not profitable.
Now that Jiang Michia is thinking about setting up a workshop, Ms. Liu thinks there is no problem.
Liu agreed to this matter now.
Not to mention Song Jingyun, he always does whatever his daughter says.
Jiang Youcheng nodded without any hesitation, "Okay, just follow what my daughter said, but I have to go talk to Li Zheng about this later. Besides, I also think about what we should do in the future." If you open this workshop, do you want to donate part of the money every year to the ancestral hall in the village to replenish the income for the lonely, old and weak?"
When people of the same clan and surname live in the same village, the richer family will often pull some of the others along. If someone's family has trouble, others will help. When someone bullies someone in the village, the whole village will join in.
This is the clan.
Jiang Michia didn't know much about these things within the clan, but she also knew about the ways of the world.
Kindness and good deeds are a good thing, and it is also a good way to win over people and establish prestige. The family business will definitely grow bigger and bigger in the future. If you do something well from the beginning, your clan members can also help when encountering special situations. head.
"Just follow what dad said." Jiang Michia said, "I only know how to do business and make money. I don't know much about human affairs. Dad can just do whatever he wants."
I don't understand why, but it just makes him look good as a father.
Jiang Youcheng smiled and drank all the wine in the bowl.
After breakfast the next day, Jiang Youcheng went to find Jiang Zhengxin and told him that he wanted to open a workshop, hire people from the village to work, and donate half of the money earned from the workshop to the village ancestral hall every year.
"That's a good thing."
When Jiang Zhengxin heard this, he smiled all over his face, "People in the village can work and make money, and the ancestral hall can get half of the donations every year to take care of the elderly, women and children who live alone."
"Brother Youcheng, what you said is that you want to make money, but you have also done a great thing for the village."
"But please don't praise me like that." Jiang Youcheng chuckled, "Why don't you bother me, help me sort this out, tell everyone, let's see who it is. If there are young people who are willing to do this business, please come to my house to learn about the situation."
"Okay, don't worry about this. I'll help you organize it." Jiang Zhengxin agreed, and at noon, he knocked on the gong, and when the villagers gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall, he talked about Jiang Youcheng's family. It's a matter of hiring workers and paying apprentices to make baskets.
Note that the wages are paid to the basket weaving apprentices, not the basket weaving apprentices pay their families.
As soon as this news came out, Jiangjiacun was no different from a frying pan.
"Jiang Youcheng's brain should be fine."
"What are you talking about? When someone accepts an apprentice, they say they have something wrong with their brains. I think you are the one who has something wrong with your brain and said such a thing."
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. That's what I'm saying. Those who are skilled in craftsmanship can't wait to cover up as if they were something. Even if they want to bring apprentices, they should ask the apprentices to pay some filial piety money in order to learn the craftsmanship. This Jiang You Cheng not only doesn’t accept money, but also pays it to apprentices?”
"If you say that, it is indeed a bit strange. Is it true..."
"Oh, why do you think so much? Just go to someone's house and ask. Look at you. Those who want to pay to learn a craft say they are evil. Those who pay to learn a craft still ask why. It's really difficult to serve. Jiang Youcheng's family is willing to pay, isn't it because everyone in his family is a kind-hearted person?"
"That's right, you have to be grateful to be a human being. Don't make random guesses here. Ask Jiang Youcheng's family and you will know if it is true."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't go right now. Why don't you wait until you finish your meal before you go? Now everyone is surrounding you. What are you talking about..."
Farmers' rules are not to be guests, and they don't come to their homes for meals. If you are suspected of wanting to eat at other people's homes, you have to avoid certain taboos.
These are the rules, rules that everyone must abide by.
So, although everyone was eager to try it, they still went home and had lunch first.
But when Jiang Michia's family put down their lunch bowls and even before they had finished clearing away the dishes, people started coming to the door one after another, asking about work and being an apprentice.
What needs to be done, how much will it cost, and what kind of people are willing to use it?
Jiang Youcheng, Song Jingyun and Liu were busy working because they still had to make the bags that would be delivered to the academy in half a month. The matter of responding to inquiries fell on Jiang Michia's head.
Jiang Michia was also unambiguous. He set up a table outside his house and answered everyone who came to inquire.
If you are here to do the work of chopping bamboo and splitting bamboo pieces, you need to be physically strong and strong, preferably a male, and your age must not be less than sixteen years old. Your monthly salary is four hundred cash. The probation period is one month, and 80% of the salary will be paid during the probation period. If the employee fails to pass the probation period for three days, the balance will be calculated on a daily basis.
If you come as an apprentice to make bamboo baskets, you will be paid 100 cents per month during the apprenticeship, and during the probation period for one month, you will still be paid 80% of the salary. After completing the apprenticeship, you must continue to work here for ten years, otherwise it will be a breach of contract.
However, if the workshop is closed down due to physical reasons or the workshop cannot continue to operate, it does not fall into the category of breach of contract. After ten years, you can continue to renew the contract or do other work, but after leaving the workshop, you are not allowed to do such work within ten years, nor can you Teach others how to do it, otherwise it is also a breach of contract and you need to pay compensation to the workshop.
After the official start of basket weaving, each person's monthly salary is 300 cents, and the commission is calculated based on the quantity of finished products. The more you work, the more you get. Basically, the monthly salary will not be less than 500 cents. .
If you can't learn it in more than five months, you can be hired casually if you are willing to do the work of chopping bamboo. If you are not willing, you can find another job, but you can't do this kind of work again in the past five years, otherwise, you will have to pay compensation... …
Jiang Michia said it in detail, and the people in Jiangjia Village understood it and felt it was very reasonable.
The most important thing is that the salary is not low, and after completing the course, you can continue to work in the workshop. It cannot be said to be an iron rice bowl, but it can be regarded as the most basic guarantee.
So many people of the right age in Jiangjia Village came to sign up.
Jiang Michia's family has discussed that they don't need so many people at the beginning. They only need one person to cut bamboo and two apprentices.
The number of people who signed up far exceeded this number.
There are so many people, so naturally you have to pick and choose the most suitable person.
There is nothing too particular about chopping bamboo into pieces, as long as you are strong and can ensure long-term work. Among the more than ten people who signed up, Jiang Mixia and Jiang Youcheng finally decided on Jiangbanggu.
Jiang Banggu is in his early twenties, a time when he is full of energy and has many brothers in his family.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
Regarding wages, let me explain. I usually see 400 taels of silver a month, which is only a dozen fens a day, which seems a bit small. But basically, five taels of silver a year is almost enough to feed and drink a small family in ancient times. The most valuable thing in ancient times was People, the price of buying and selling a maid is only about 10 taels to 20 taels of silver (sometimes five or six taels). With human life like this, the labor force can be imagined, so four hundred coins a month, almost five taels of silver a year is already a lot. Good wages.
The overall low price of labor in ancient times cannot be compared with the current labor price, nor can it be measured by the current price ratio. Hope you know~
