Aunt Wenrui inside couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

Each of them has their own specialty in pastries, and Wanyue simply lets them make what they are good at. Apart from mooncakes, they can try any new ideas they have and she does not restrict anyone's creativity.

If you can present it presentably and it works well, then you can put it in a gift box and sell it.

Qiao Wanyue said, "Aunt Wenrui, you made this mung bean cake very well. You can collect a one-yuan reward after you get off work later."

Aunt Wenrui's eyes widened. "Wanyue, isn't this inappropriate?"

Qiao Wanyue smiled and said, "I discussed it with the brigade leader. As long as everyone makes a contribution, they can get money. And the brigade leader said that when we distribute the money next time, all of us aunties and sisters-in-law will get 10%."

She happily made a gesture.

Everyone's eyes widened.

A box of pastries sells for eight yuan. One portion goes to the workers, and a hundred boxes would cost a hundred yuan, so each of the eight workers would get a dozen yuan.

You can earn more than ten yuan in just a few days.

"Wanyue, isn't this against the rules?"

Qiao Wanyue: "Are you willing to divide the money equally among the villagers?"

The expressions on their faces changed.

That's definitely not something I'd be willing to accept.

Although they were paid, they worked overtime and poured all their energy into it, even thinking about the recipe and how to improve it to make it taste better while they were sleeping.

They accepted that Wanyue received more.

But the villagers who didn't contribute any effort or money also got a share, which must have made them unhappy.

Qiao Wanyue laughed and said, "That's right. You've done more work, why shouldn't you get paid? Our village is going to have a factory, and you'll be the technical backbone in the future. If you work hard now, earning 100 yuan a month won't be a problem." Qiao Wanyue was instantly energized.

"One hundred yuan, my goodness, can I do it?" Aunt Wenrui jumped up. Her family didn't even have one hundred yuan in savings. If she could really get one hundred yuan, she would sell herself to the village.

Qiao Wanyue smiled and said, "Once our small workshop is up and running, nothing is impossible."

Everyone was instantly energized and worked even harder.

She lowered the curtain and walked out of the production workshop.

“Old Mo, our village will probably need more people to build houses. If you don’t mind, you can take those construction teams and give them some instructions. After all, people’s lives are getting better now, and their requirements for houses are also increasing, and it’s not just about houses.”

Mo Li understood immediately.

She lowered her head and ate a chicken wing, speaking indistinctly, "If I can eat my fill and eat well, I don't need a salary."

The premise is that the meals every day are the same as today's.

Old Hu rolled his eyes gracefully.

"Dream on. Today's meal is from Comrade Qiao's family. From now on, you'll eat with me at the brigade's meals."

Mo Li glared at him.

He reluctantly agreed.

Anyway, it's better than carrying manure.

Qiao Wanyue went to see the brigade leader.

"You said you're going to move all the people from the cowshed to the village?" The brigade leader's voice almost cracked.

What a bold decision that was.

He vouched for both Mo Li and Old Hu with his life.

If another opportunist emerges in that cowshed, he'll lose his position as brigade leader.

Qiao Wanyue repeated her previous statement, "Captain, we need intellectuals. The combined education of all the people in our village doesn't even equal the number of books Old Hu has read. Do you really want our next generation to be illiterate?"

“Look at the great families that developed in ancient times. They were all learned and knowledgeable. We can’t just rely on selling dried vegetables and pastries. Look at Bai Zhiqing and Ouyang Zhiqing. Bai Zhiqing is eloquent and his parents were all intellectuals.”

Ouyang, the educated youth, is utterly useless, but she can draw diagrams, read books, and offer guidance. We can't find anyone like her in the entire village. Shouldn't we utilize the resources we have and learn from her knowledge?
