Chapter 111: From ancient times, people have always used tricks to win people’s hearts
The others nodded as well.
Although they were not in business, they knew that the most fearful thing about business was that someone would take advantage of others.
Yu Lao Da and his sister Hui Niang grew up together, so he naturally knew what his sister was thinking. He had also been cheated before, so he was very smart and figured it out after a while.
"Although my sister is a little weak, she is not a kind-hearted person without principles."
"We are new here and are not familiar with the local area. We have no backing and no background, so it is not appropriate for us to show off. If we offend these locals, we will probably have difficulty moving forward in the future."
"That's right." Hui Niang smiled and nodded, "If we really push people into a corner, it will be bad."
"Who doesn't have a few powerful relatives? They may not help if you are in trouble, but they will definitely jump out if they can profit from it." The
Gan family had just arrived in the capital and hired people to do business. They were like weak and vulnerable little sheep. Who doesn't like to eat delicious mutton? Who doesn't want to wear a warm sheepskin coat?
With just a plausible reason, the Gan family can be swallowed up openly. Who wouldn't be tempted by such benefits?
Let's not talk about the distant past. Let's talk about the seemingly impoverished Hong. Her husband's ancestors were officials.
It's easy to clean up the Gan family.
If you think about the bad side, even if these people don't have any powerful relatives or a powerful background, they may unite and harm the Gan family.
In this world, aren't there enough houses that are on fire and robbed by bandits?
Hui Niang's willow-like eyebrows raised slightly, and suddenly there was a hint of fierceness.
"The world is bustling for profit. If we can't give them what they want, we will definitely be envied. But if we give enough and show enough strength so that they dare not have any unnecessary thoughts, then they will do their best to protect us and become our supporters."
Dong Cuilian's eyes widened.
"You look like us, but I didn't expect you to be able to speak so elegantly."
Hui Niang was a little embarrassed.
In this world, few women read books, but she was an exception. Her brother had been imprisoned, and her husband was also a scholar. She was naturally able to recite some poems.
Her face was flushed: "I just think that if we can use some small profits to induce them to work for us wholeheartedly, it would be a good deal."
"But we have to control the overall situation, so that they can steal, but not too much."
Dong Cuilian understood this time: "I understand, I understand, it's just like men, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, it's boring to play with your wife at home, it's exciting to secretly go out and play with other people's wives."
Dong Cuilian's words stimulated several men to cough continuously.
"Old lady, what kind of metaphor are you using?"
Gongsun Yue was annoyed: "I am a decent man, not the kind of person who betrays others."
Li Zhi quietly distanced himself from his mother.
"Me neither."
Gan Fanren also coughed and said: "Having my wife alone in my life is enough for me."
As the last adult man present, Brother Yu felt that it would be inappropriate if he did not say something.
He said dryly, "Me too."
Seeing the blushing faces of the grown men, Dong Cuilian couldn't help but clapped her legs and said, "I was just making an analogy. Why are you blushing?"
"What I mean is that for the same salary, everyone would definitely like to get the better deal."
"The salary is high and the treatment is good. If I worked in such a place, I would definitely be worried all day long, afraid that I would be kicked out if I didn't do a good job."
"Not only do I have to work hard, I also hope that my boss will do better and better, and the business will be more and more prosperous. Not only will I be proud when I go out, but I can also make more money."
As a businessman, he naturally felt that stealing materials was an unforgivable crime.
But from the perspective of a servant, stealing some materials was nothing. Anyway, it was waste material, so it would be a waste if he didn't take it.
It is very common for cooks to steal leftovers and for pigs to steal offal.
"As the old saying goes, it is better to loosen up than to block. Instead of thinking about how to stop them from stealing ingredients, it is better to think about how to make them steal less, so that they feel they have taken advantage and work harder for us."
[I understand, I understand. They count the money for us even though we sold them, so they feel they have taken advantage.]
Gan Tian thought about it and felt that her mother's method was really good.
At least Hong's heart is with her mother, and today she promised that if she encounters any trouble, she can go to her.
[Speaking of which, it is a family system these days. A family of dozens of people live together. Those who come to work are all women. They are also consumers of sanitary napkins. If they can also feel that sanitary napkins are a good thing, they will naturally lead the people around them to buy them. This is simply a free advertisement. ]
Hearing the new words popping up in her daughter's mind, Hui Niang had a headache. Some of her daughter's ideas were really good, but sometimes she couldn't understand them.
Although she didn't know what the advertisement was, she could also hear that this was a good thing. Since she knew it was a good thing, she would use it.
The next day, when Hong and others came to get the work, there was a woman with a very pale face, a trace of blood on her body, and a painful expression.
Hui Niang roughly understood at a glance that she had her period.
"Madam, are you having your period?"
The lady nodded and said hurriedly, "Madam Yu, don't worry. Although I have my period, I will not delay the work at hand. I will definitely hand in the cloth bag on time."
She was afraid that her work would be divided by Hui Niang.
She did not finish her work the day before yesterday, but it was divided yesterday. She calculated that it was more than 30 coins, which was enough for the whole family to eat for several meals.
When she thought about earning 30 coins less, she blamed herself for not sleeping well all night. If she had known this, she would have done more and worked faster, so that she would not have lost 30 coins in vain.
Others looked at the woman with sympathy.
It's only been a few days, and I'm already having my period. No matter how well I take care of myself, I'll be weaker than usual when my period comes, so I'm sure I'll earn less.
Hui Niang thought this was a good opportunity, so she took out her sleeping pants and various sanitary napkins.
"You've been busy sewing cloth bags all day, and I'm afraid you don't even know what these cloth bags are used for?"
"The cloth bags we made are used to hold sanitary napkins and sleeping pants."
"This sanitary napkin is the new version of the menstrual belt, but this thing is clean and hygienic, and it is also very comfortable."
"Sleeping pants are an enhanced version of sanitary napkins. When you wear them, they are not easy to leak no matter how you move. I used this thing when I gave birth to Tianer, and my bedding and clothes were not dirty at all."
Hearing Hui Niang's words, the other women's eyes widened.
"Women have the most lochia when giving birth. Such a small thing can guarantee that there will be no leakage?"
