Since most of the workers are villagers, this is the most cost-effective option for them. They can earn money when they have free time, and sometimes they can also help with the crops in the fields.
"Wouldn't that be the same as city people? Great, great!" An older woman stared at Jiang Xue with shining eyes, eagerly awaiting Jiang Xue's offer of wages.
"If it's based on the salary, then it's fifty yuan a month." Jiang Xue wasn't stupid. If she were paid five yuan a day for thirty days a month, she would lose a fortune.
Furthermore, most of these villagers have things to do at home today and things to do tomorrow, so she is already being very generous by paying them wages based on the number of days worked.
"That's too little, I won't do it." Aunt Zhou, a newcomer from the neighboring village, publicly refused to do it.
"Do you think we're monkeys? Do you think we're stupid enough to be fooled like this?"
Jiang Xue stared sharply at Aunt Zhou, "You said I'd play the fool for you, but isn't that because you want to treat me like a fool? If we worked for five yuan a day, wouldn't it be easier for both of us?"
"That five yuan a day isn't available every day. You can't just decide when to give us a day off. Aren't you just treating us like idiots?"
Jiang Xue was furious. How could she be so unreasonable? If it were based on a salary system, she would have to take responsibility for things like holidays and whether there were any orders. That would definitely have to be taken into consideration.
These people felt that Jiang Xue had taken advantage of them, completely forgetting that in this era, rural women like them had very few opportunities, unless they abandoned their families and went to work in the south.
"You're just making a fool of us, exploiting us!" Aunt Zhou said, hands on her hips, looking like she was about to stir up trouble.
Jiang Xue checked the time and said, "You can leave today." This group of people had been making a fuss for less than half an hour since they arrived.
I was originally planning to pay them all their wages today, but now this nitpicker has come along. Does she think Jiang Xue is a pushover?
"They're just temporary workers, what's there to nitpick about? My suggestion to pay them monthly was just me being too kind."
Jiang Xue stood in the center of the crowd, exuding an aura of commanding thousands of troops.
"If anyone wants to quit, pack your things and leave now. My place is too small to accommodate a big shot."
When Aunt Zhou saw that Jiang Xue was serious, she said, "Do you know that my younger brother works at the Labor Bureau? I'll write a letter when I get back and ask him to investigate you thoroughly."
Jiang Xue rolled her eyes at her, annoyed. "Go quickly, go quickly. It would be best if your brother brought people over soon, and it would be best if they were high-ranking officials. Arrest them."
Aunt Zhou was furious. She glared at Jiang Xue and left angrily.
Aunt Wang quickly comforted Jiang Xue, "She's always been like this. A few years ago, her family was very poor. Later, they finally managed to support one of her children to go to university. It wasn't until her younger brother went to the Labor Bureau that she could finally hold her head high and walk with the confidence of a crab."
Jiang Xue shook her head, "Why did you find someone like this for me? Knowing there's a problem with the quality, it's definitely unusable."
“Her family is very poor. I never thought she would be so greedy. Maybe it’s because she’s too poor, desperate for money, and doesn’t know how to talk to people, that’s why she did this.” Aunt Wang shook her head and sighed. “She’s just too poor and too proud to admit it.”
Jiang Xue was furious. "You're so stubborn, you'll suffer for it."
