But Langzi quickly proved they weren't exaggerating. Every female worker who confirmed their willingness to work signed a contract. The terms were pretty much the same: eight hours a day, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., with a two-hour lunch break. However, they were required to complete their assigned tasks and not slack off. Overtime wasn't common during normal times, but if they received an urgent or large order, they would be required to work overtime, though they would be paid overtime.
On my first day at work, Haichao came to deliver lunch on his tricycle. It was enough for less than ten people, but he didn't think it was difficult.
The women chattered, curious about the meal. It was just family-style fast food, with three dishes per person, two vegetarian and one meat, and a pot of soup to drink as much as they wanted.
"Oh, I don't quite understand the things on the paper, but as for the food, I've tasted it in my mouth and know it's true!" someone said loudly.
"Yes. It tastes pretty good, and there's meat!" Although it was just some shredded meat and minced meat, everyone was still very happy. When they heard that such a meal would cost fifty cents, many people thought, my God, that would be enough for a month's food, which is almost the same as their wages.
Of course not. In fact, the cost is much lower. Women have smaller appetites than men and eat smaller amounts of food, so the cost is actually not high.
After Langzi's first lunch, it caused a sensation. Several female workers here came from Shengli and knew people there. Of course, they would not hide the good news and could not help but tell their sisters in Shengli. The other party widened their eyes in surprise and was full of envy, which made them very satisfied.
The workers at Shengli were upset. Why were the workers at Langzi being treated so well, while their own workers weren't? The gap between them and their boss was too big!
At first, the people at Shengli said that the people at Lanzi were definitely scamming people. With such high costs, how could they possibly make any money? Everyone was skeptical. But now, they've proven it.
A few more people are leaving. Victory wants to stabilize people's hearts, so they say that others can do it for three or five days, and if they have the ability, they can really do it for a year! They just want to deceive you, and then these benefits will be cancelled bit by bit!
Many people also think that it makes sense. It is difficult to get into state-owned factories, but these private factories are still very competitive for manpower. Maybe they are just giving you a taste of the sweetness!
But there are still a few people who refuse to believe Shengli's statement. Even if it is only for a few days, it is better than no victory at all. Shengli's boss and manager love to lie the most.
So a few more skilled workers left and joined Langzi, and enjoyed lunch the next day.
The factory was producing in an orderly manner, and the first place to supply goods was of course Yaotiao Shu Nv. However, Yaotiao Shu Nv could not digest all the goods. Although Wen Zhichao wanted to expand the store, the shops on both sides had no intention of transferring, so he could only shrink in grievance.
So Wen Zhichao and Haisheng still have to look for customers.
After the first batch of clothes were produced, the two men took the samples and went to look for customers.
In fact, sales is a very technical job, so it is not easy to be a salesperson.
However, Wen Zhichao had experience in setting up stalls on the street, and Haisheng was not a mediocre person. After three days of running around, the two of them each brought back a customer. Although they were both ordinary shops, they still purchased about a hundred pieces a month.
"We told them we would deliver the goods to their door, so we need to find someone to do the delivery."
"Let's do it ourselves!" Awang said. Although there are only three men in the factory now, they still have a group of brothers. It's very simple to pay them for each trip.
So I decided not to hire deliverymen for the time being. Otherwise, it would not be worth it to deliver goods two or three times a month and still have to pay them wages.
Now that Wen Zhichao is in charge of production himself, costs have been reduced to the lowest level, so Yaotiao Shunv makes more money than before, but it will take some time for the factory to make a profit.
As the weather gets hotter, when the workers are busy, Awang stays at the gate and acts as a gatekeeper, which helps him stay cool.
Seeing someone looking around at the Victory Garment Factory across the street, Awang got a sudden inspiration and went up to greet him, "Fellow villager, what can I do for you?"
He was a man wearing glasses and holding a bag. He was not wearing a blue cloth shirt but a shirt. He did not look like an ordinary person.
"Is this the Victory Garment Factory?"
"Yes, but..."
"But what?"
"But you came at an unfortunate time. The person in charge of the Victory Garment Factory is not here. How about you come to my place and have a drink of water for a while?"
In fact, Awang knew that everyone at Shengli Garment Factory was there, and the boss was in the office. The person in charge was the boss's younger brother, who was always absent. He must have slipped away again at this time, so it was inconvenient for the person in charge.
