Chapter 248 Which cat brought the fish?
A villager asked, "Cai Ping, is this workshop also looking for workers?"
Ye Caiping nodded: "Yes, we are hiring, a total of 50 people."
The villagers were delighted, especially those who had no chance to enter the Hu La Tang workshop, who were eager to try.
Ye Caiping continued, "This is a furniture workshop, where they make furniture. We need to recruit some people to be carpenters."
"Carpenter? Oh my god, others want to learn but no one teaches them. How can you teach us to make furniture in your workshop? Do you get paid?"
Ye Caiping smiled and nodded: "Yes."
The villagers were all in an uproar again. How could such a good thing really exist in the world?
Ye Caiping said: "But those who enter the workshop must sign a contract. As long as they enter the workshop to work, they must work for a full 10 years unless the workshop fires them, otherwise they must compensate the workshop 100 taels!"
"Also, while you are working in the workshop, you cannot teach others what you have learned, otherwise you will be compensated 100 taels as well."
The villagers were all shocked when they heard that they had to pay compensation. "What? We work for them and we have to pay for it?"
Ye Lizheng's face was stern: "What's the matter? You want to come in and learn something for free, then quit and run away to be a carpenter yourself? Or will you secretly teach what you learned to others?"
The villagers shook their heads and said, "Of course not. We just want to find a job and get paid every month."
Of course, there are a few people who have this little thought but dare not speak out.
Ye Lizheng continued: "That's all! As long as you don't violate the rules, who will ask you to pay?"
The villagers thought about it and agreed.
"Anyway, let me put it this way. If you want to sign up, then sign up. If you don't want to, we won't force you."
One villager stammered, "What about the wages?"
Ye Caiping said, "There are many positions in the furniture workshop. A warehouse manager similar to the one in the Hu La Tang workshop is 30 wen a day."
"For carpenters, it's a bit special. You have to learn for a while. The probation period is 4 months, 25 wen a day, and after the probation period, 60 wen a day."
The villagers were shocked and asked, "60 wen a day? That would be 1 liang 8 qian a month, right?"
"One ounce and eight cents, that's more than what the accountant paid!"
"Give me 1 tael and 8 cents a month. I can work till I die, not to mention ten years! I can work till I'm rotten!"
Ye Caiping and Ye Lizheng looked at each other and smiled.
This is exactly the effect they want. As long as the wages are high enough, it will not be a problem to retain employees even if they have learned all the skills.
The villagers who wanted to sign up were more excited than each other, but the families of some employees of the Hu La Tang workshop were dissatisfied.
The Hu La Tang workshop was still in operation, so those people didn't come, but many of their families came to watch the fun.
Mrs. Zhao squeezed through the crowd and said excitedly:
"How can this be? My son and grandson work in a spicy soup workshop and only earn 30 coins a day, but this furniture workshop is charging 60 coins a day?"
Ye Caiping had anticipated this situation and said, "Whether it's the spicy soup workshop or the furniture workshop, I have a share in it."
"The original employees of Hu La Tang can go to the furniture workshop if they want. They are the first batch of people I picked, and they are the best. There is no reason not to let them go."
"But the furniture workshop is different from the Hu La Tang workshop. The technical threshold is higher. Only if Uncle Wang can choose me can I switch to the furniture workshop."
The Hu La Tang workshop can easily recruit people as long as you have the skills.
So she doesn't mind employees jumping to the furniture workshop.
When Mrs. Zhao and other family members heard this, they were all very excited.
Ye Caiping said, "Anyone who is interested should go to the village head to register. You must clearly state what position you want to apply for. If you don't want to be a carpenter, just go back after registering."
"If you want to be a carpenter, after you sign up, you can go to Uncle Wang to line up for a trial job and let them see if you are suitable."
The villagers swarmed around Ye Lizheng.
Wang Shuantou, Wang Shouqiang, Wang Shoukuai and Ye Yong sat aside, waiting for the villagers to come for a trial job.
Let me chisel something, or simply carve something.
They are all experts and can tell whether these people have the talent, especially Wang Shuantou, who has a very sharp eye.
Wei was in the crowd, looking at the bustling furniture workshop and curled his lips.
Why does it look like everything is going well?
But when she thought about how it would cost her 70 taels of silver, she was completely unwilling.
Anyway…her family has more than 90 taels of silver every month, so this furniture workshop may not be able to make money.
Ye Caiping watched Ye Lizheng, Wang Shuantou and others proceeding in an orderly manner. Ye Daquan also yelled at them from time to time, asking them to line up properly.
Even Old Man Ye and Madam Du were busy moving out some small pieces of wood for everyone to try out their work.
She couldn't help but smile. Old Lady Ye stepped forward and said, "Cai Ping, leave this matter to them! Go home and take a rest. By the way, let your uncle the head of the village and your brothers come to our house for dinner today."
"OK."
The mother and daughter returned home, and Grandma Ye and Xiaoyan were cooking in the kitchen.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Caiping was studying the book on glass making under a tree in the outer courtyard. When she heard the sound, she went to open the door.
"Hello, Madam Ye." What came into view was Duanwu's smiling face.
"It's Dragon Boat Festival, what's going on?"
"Here." Duanwu brought a fish basket, "The master gave it to you."
Ye Caiping took it and looked down, only to see a small croaker, two fingers wide, lying inside with no desire to live...
"The younger one will go back first."
Duanwu left, and Ye Caiping froze in place, what to do...
Finally she carried the small croaker into the kitchen.
Old Mrs. Ye was chopping cabbage, and Xiaoyan was watching the stove. When she saw her come in with a small fish, Xiaoyan burst out laughing and said, "Which cat brought fish to Auntie again?"
