At a young age, Da Hu is already able to study calmly for an entire day.
My mother also said that women have fewer career options than men, but they can still achieve a sense of accomplishment by doing well and being strong in the available jobs. Managing the family business is one such option.
The eldest sister learned this best, and the youngest sister picked it up quickly too. Only she is a bit of a worry. Oh, she can't hold everyone back!
Shuiqing chuckled at her second daughter's worried expression. "I'm leaving this to you. I'm going to take a look around. Just report back to me on the accounts tonight, and it will be the same from now on."
She had finally trained a successor, so she couldn't just let go!
Trying to do everything yourself will prevent your children from growing up and will also exhaust you.
The three sisters watched as Shuiqing left without hesitation after speaking, seemingly without any concern that they might mess things up, which made them extremely anxious.
"Big sister, what should we do? There's so much more to do today than usual," Xinghui asked anxiously.
In the past, the tasks their mother assigned them were either unimportant or she would just stand by and watch over them, making it easy to change things at any time. Now that their mother doesn't care, how can they correct their mistakes if they make a mistake?
Yan Qiu took a breath to calm herself down, reassuring her two younger sisters and herself, "It's alright, let's do as Mother instructed!"
Sooner or later, they will have to stand on their own two feet. As their parents get older, they will have to support them. Otherwise, when their parents are old, they will not only not be able to enjoy their old age, but they will also have to clean up their messes.
As the eldest sister, she should set a good example.
After calming her flustered mind, Wanxia replied, "Yes, we can do it!"
Xinghui was about to cry. How come her older sister was so calm, but her younger sister, who was so much younger than her, was also more calm!
The difference between people is indeed vast. Could she really be the good-for-nothing her mother described...?
Shuiqing said she was going to take a trip elsewhere, but she wasn't actually idle—we're in the initial stage now, and if we don't put our hearts into it and make good plans, we could lose everything.
She gathered all the women in the workshop into the room and rearranged their responsibilities.
With all the toothbrush handles outsourced, the women who were originally responsible for polishing and drilling are now freed up.
The men who cut and split bamboo no longer needed to drag the bamboo into the yard; they could simply drag it back after cutting it, and their own yards became their work areas.
The toothbrush handles they made at home could be exchanged for silver. Working at home was the same as working in the workshop, and they might even earn more. After all, working at the workshop meant a fixed wage of 23 coins per day, while working at home meant more pay for more work!
The more you do, the more you earn.
Therefore, the wages of these workers in the toothbrush workshop need to be increased. At least they are responsible for the core technology. If they earn less than those who outsource their work, they might as well go home and do it.
Shuiqing announced: "The people in charge of polishing and drilling will teach the villagers who come to learn later. From today onwards, you will no longer need to do polishing and drilling. Our workshop will only be responsible for the last two steps."
In addition, the daily wage for all workers in the workshop has increased to thirty coins.
