Transmigrated as a Troublemaking Mother-in-Law, Leading the Entire Family to Flee from Famine

Upon opening her eyes, Shen Qing found herself in a mud-and-thatch hut, wearing clothes covered in patches, eating corn paste, and seeing no trace of meat or oil. Shen Qing: This is too miserable! ...

Chapter 257: Can't Miss It

Chapter 257: Can't Miss It

Liu Cuihua was stunned and asked, "Workshop?"

By the way, Shen Qing bought the wool materials from their family in order to make brushes, so this must be a brush workshop.

With only five stoves, how many people can they feed? Perhaps hundreds of people!

She asked curiously, "Shen Qing, how many people are you planning to hire for your workshop?"

"Probably around fifty or sixty." Shen Qing replied casually.

Li Cuihua swallowed with a gulp.

Oh my God, fifty or sixty people!

She had only thought that Shen Qing's family made it, so she didn't ask in detail. Is it really that difficult to make a brush? It requires so many people!

However, studying has always been extremely expensive, and everything related to studying is expensive, so brushes must not be cheap either.

She stammered, "Then, how much is the salary?"

"It depends on the process you are responsible for. Each process is different, some have more and some have less."

Liu Cuihua nodded.

Yes, how can they be the same? The more difficult the process, the more expensive it must be. After all, it is a craft.

For example, there are several types of physical labor. A bricklayer who can do tile work costs six or seven cents a day more than a laborer who can mix mud, a total of twenty-eight cents a day.

The same goes for carpenters, kang builders and stove builders, they are all craftsmen!

A craft that can support the whole family and be passed down to future generations.

"We implement the principle of more work, more pay. The price of each process is different, and the more you do, the more you get, and the less you do, the less you get."

Liu Cuihua continued to nod.

It should be. Otherwise, if some people are lazy and some are diligent, wouldn't the diligent ones suffer? In the end, who would be willing to work diligently?

And you can definitely do more of the easy things and less of the difficult things. If the pricing is the same, even a fool will know to do the easy things!

Shen Qing thought very comprehensively and took everything into consideration.

According to the market conditions for working outside, she guessed that earning ten or twenty cents a day would not be a problem!

"The last step of tying the line is the hardest. Guan Xiaoshan is the best in the village. He's quick and steady, and he's very patient. On a good day, he can make 80 or 90 wen. On a bad day, 60 or 70 wen isn't a problem."

Liu Cuihua opened her mouth wide enough to swallow an egg.

She shook her head, calmed herself down and thought that this was the best and most powerful thing, and it didn't count!

There is a huge gap between the top ones and the bottom ones!

"Among the others, polishing is the simplest and cheapest. It costs one cent per stick, and I only earn a little over thirty cents a day."

Liu Cuihua: .....Only?

It is basically impossible to find a job in Jincheng that pays more than 30 cents a day!

And Shen Qing could provide them? And fifty or sixty at once!

There are only about a hundred people in their village, excluding the elderly, children and women... No, Shen Qing should not exclude the women.

She opened her mouth and asked, "Does your workshop hire women?"

Shen Qing looked at Liu Cuihua and said seriously, "Do you want to come?"

She described it in such detail because she thought the women of the Lei family could use it.

The second and third families of Jiang have sugar factories and will not participate;

The Guan family only has Guan Xiaoshan;

The people in the family make soap and do not participate in the specific affairs of the brush workshop;

There are only five other families. If these five families have to pick out fifty or sixty people, they will have no strong laborers to do the work - in this dynasty, there are no electrical appliances to help with washing clothes, cooking, and boiling water. In addition to feeding poultry and livestock, at least three or five people are needed to avoid being too tired. It would be best if half of them work at home and the other half work in the workshop, so that they can replace each other when there is something to do or when they are tired.

It is equivalent to working three days and resting four days, or working four days and resting three days a week.

The Lei family has three families, with twenty or thirty people, all of whom are in their prime.

If we leave half of the people at home, there will still be more than ten people free to work.

Liu Cuihua was so excited that she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet. After a long pause, she asked, "Is it okay?"

The simplest job can earn you more than thirty coins a day! They stay at home for the entire winter, at least more than a hundred days. Based on a hundred days, that's three taels of silver!

Three taels of silver per person. If ten people work, that would be thirty taels of silver in three or four months.

Oh my god, why is she a little confused? She can earn more than 30 taels of silver in one winter, and if we share it equally, each family can earn more than 10 taels of silver...

Shen Qing continued, "The workshop has a stove and a well, so cooking and drinking water are not a problem. There's also geothermal heat, which runs day and night. If it snows heavily or the ground freezes, you can bring your bedding and food and stay in the workshop."

It is equivalent to a staff dormitory.

Liu Cuihua: .....No need to say anything, she will go back to discuss who will come to work!

Liu Cuihua came and went in a hurry.

More than half an hour later, they came again. This time, it was not just her, but also Fang Ting and Ma Pandi - they did not come to do it, but packed up their children and sent them over.

Fang Ting rubbed his hands nervously, "Da Gui to Qi Gui, six or seven are a bit young, but Lao Da to Lao Wu are all fine. Lao Da is 54 years old. If you think he is too young, then don't want him. And in the fall, my family will have five or six children. Is that too many?"

Ma Pandi followed up and said, "My family can have a dog from the age of three to the age of four. Although it is a little young in winter, it can work very efficiently. Shen Qing, do you want to try it first and see if you can have it?"

In fact, she is not young anymore and can talk about marriage next year.

This is also the main reason why they would rather they and the head of the family not come and send all the children here!

Earning money is one aspect, and the other aspect is of course to have more contact with men and women of marriageable age in the village. Marriage has always been a big stone in their minds, and now they think about getting married as many as possible.

Whichever one comes true is fine!

Liu Cuihua was still hesitating whether to arrange for Dafu to come over. Her children were of any age and there were quite a few of them. If Shen Qing didn't need so many people, would she have to leave Dafu at home?

After all, there was no one in the village who was as old as Dafu. Moreover, Dafu was a good hunter. He was amazing at catching roe deer in the snow in winter.

"Okay, the more the better. You can deliver them all as long as you are not afraid of their hard work." Shen Qing couldn't ask for more.

Liu Cuihua's face lit up with joy, and she said with a smile, "Okay, then send them all over!"

What kind of suffering can be worse than the suffering of having no money?

Besides, there are fifty or sixty people. Shen Qing also said that family members can come and replace them to work, but the three families do not plan to come and replace them. You know, this is a great opportunity!

You can't miss it.

If it still doesn't work after one winter, then I'll just have to accept it and wait until next year to go to the homes of disaster victims in the city to see if there's anything suitable...

The people from the Lei family have been confirmed, and the rest of the villagers are veterans who can start making the products without any training. Shen Qing recruits workers according to the ratio of the number of people in each household.

Basically half and half.

On the second day, the workshop's geothermal energy was ignited, the room became warm, and more than fifty people officially started working!
