As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Yu planned to have his brothers and sisters-in-law clear out the few acres of land by the river overnight.
She plans to scatter all the glutinous rice seeds she has stored into the ground.
What if the clan leader agrees to let Song Chongjin and the others stay, allowing her space to be upgraded again?
That means the glutinous rice cooks instantly, so she can take it home and doesn't need to buy it anymore!
The three old men, including Chi Dongyi, were all smiles.
Chi Sanhe further inquired, "Xiaoyu, you said you want to build a workshop as big as your house. Have you decided where to build it and how many people to hire in front of it?"
In his view, once the workshops in the village are built, the young men of Chijia'ao will have a greater advantage in choosing their spouses in the future.
Putting aside everything else, the young women and wives from Wuning Prefecture alone will definitely have their own ideas.
By then, there will definitely be more people willing to marry the men of Chijia'ao and live a good life together.
Chi Yu hadn't thought much of it at first, but seeing Chi Sanhe's bright eyes and cheerful demeanor, she instantly understood.
His family also has children and grandchildren who are of marriageable age. If a family member had a job and a stable income, life would definitely be better than usual.
With these thoughts racing through her mind, she replied, "Where the workshop is built is not up to me to decide, but rather for the clan to discuss and decide."
Then, I need to ask my sister-in-law about how many people to recruit initially. I'll see what Mrs. Zheng said to her after I returned.
We need to decide how many people to hire based on her needs.
Another point is about wages, clan chief, how much do you think is appropriate?
As far as I know, before the earthquake, waiters in the restaurants and teahouses of the county town earned between 300 and 400 coins a month.
However, they will provide food and lodging; if we don't, the cost might increase slightly.
Chi Dongyi and the other two elders exchanged glances, then discussed the matter at hand:
"Little Fish, how about this? Those waiters and such in the county town have to leave their hometowns, but the villagers don't have to."
Regarding wages, we'll have everyone work a little more each day, at four hundred coins a month. What do you think?
Four hundred coins equals thirteen or fourteen coins a day. You don't have to leave home; the job is stable right here in the village. I reckon everyone wants to work there.
I wonder how many people Xiaoyu is going to recruit this time?
"Okay, let's set it at four hundred coins a month for now! As for the working hours, we'll decide on that later."
Chi Yu had previously discussed wages with her sister, and her ideal price was within 500 coins.
Now that Chi Dongyi has mentioned four hundred coins, she is naturally willing.
For her, it would be enough if the managers and such were paid slightly more than the others.
For example, Chi Ye and Zhou Xiaolan each earned 500 coins a month.
Then, when more people are needed, group leaders are selected, and each person's monthly salary is increased by fifty coins or something.
After that, the longer you worked there, the higher your monthly salary became.
In short, these people's wages are not fixed, especially for management positions like Ah Ye and Sister Lan.
If business is booming, she will give everyone an extra amount at the end of the year.
But this is still uncertain, so there's no need to start making empty promises now.
After all, the empty promises are aimed at outsiders, not one's own people!
Chi Ye and Chi Kang hadn't gone far when Chi Qiao called them back.
Before entering the main room again, both of them were somewhat puzzled.
When Chi Ye saw his aunt hand him the silver notes and say that he would be in charge of the soap workshop from now on, he was a little taken aback.
After he finished digesting the information, he looked at Chi Yu and said, "Little Aunt, you said that you want to recruit female relatives to work in front of us, and then have Aunt Lan manage it."
