Chapter 378: Flexible Brain
So Yue Fuli directly posted a recruitment notice, preparing to recruit some people to go to the island to do the preliminary work of the workshop, such as cleaning sugarcane.
As soon as the job posting was posted, most of the applicants were women, because men looked down on cleaning work, believing it was a woman's job.
The women didn't mind, but when they heard they were going to work on Floating Cloud Island, they hesitated because they couldn't go back and forth every day and couldn't take care of the family.
Also, when men hear that women have to work so far away, they won’t let them go.
For several days, no one was found.
Yue Fuli saw that this was not going to work. Since the women were unwilling to go, she decided to relax the conditions and recruit some half-grown children.
As long as the children are willing to work, their wages are comparable to those of adults. This has attracted many people.
Not to mention far away, there are many children in Qingshan Village who want to work. After all, it is not easy to find a job outside, and Yue Fuli also promised them that he could pay them half a month's salary in advance.
With such good conditions, you’d be a fool not to go.
In this way, the team was quickly filled with people.
Having solved the manpower problem, Yue Fuli was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Du Ruomei came to see her again, telling her that the previous customer had placed another order for pills. This time, the quantity required was three times the previous order.
If Yue Fuli were to take care of so many pills alone, she would be extremely exhausted.
Therefore, she decided to build another workshop to produce pills. She also planned to cooperate with Lord Yang on this matter.
As for the matter of the salt mine, Yue Fuli thought about it and decided to keep a backup plan. Otherwise, if all the workshops cooperated with the government, it would be troublesome if they were targeted by people above Yang Zhifu.
Although, she is not afraid of trouble, maybe it is better to save some trouble.
Prefect Yang was a little surprised to see Yue Fuli coming to his house. He asked, "Mr. Li, is there something wrong with the sugar factory? If there is anything that requires the intervention of the government, please let me know."
"Sir Yang, there's no problem with the sugar-making workshop. I came to you today to discuss another business venture with the government, or with you personally."
"Another business? I wonder what business it is?"
Yue Fuli didn't hide her intention to open a pill-making workshop. Not only that, she also brought over several bottles of her own pills, including cough suppressants, cold remedies, and diarrhea remedies.
Seeing Yue Fuli's pills, Yang Zhifu's eyes lit up and asked, "Did you make all of these? And the effect is the same as the decoction?"
"Yes, I made this myself, and the effect is no different from herbal medicine. Some people don't like herbal medicine because they find it bitter, so this is very convenient. And you can take it with you when you go out, so you don't have to worry about not being able to boil the medicine when you are away from home."
"Not bad, not bad. Master Li, how come you have such a brain? How come you know everything? Since you can make medicine, then you must be proficient in medicine as well."
"I can't say I'm proficient in it, I can only say I have a basic understanding of it."
"Just be modest." Prefect Yang looked at Yue Fuli with admiration, thinking how great it would be if this was his own child.
This kid is really good. He is good at both literature and martial arts, medicine and business. He is also smart and has many ideas for making money, one better than the other, and each one is more profitable than the last.
