Chapter 586 Peasant Woman 14
Tan You is the kind of aggressive person, but Chen Xi is softer, and there is nothing wrong with that. The sharp edge is hidden under the soft and harmless face, which makes it easier to achieve one's goals.
An Wen quickly went to find Chen Tianshui. After An Wen told him his purpose, Chen Tianshui slapped his thigh: "Come on, everyone in the village will probably have work to do in the future."
< br>"Let's go quickly. Have all the clan elders invited us?"
An Wen said with a stern face: "I have invited all the houses I passed by, and now we still have to wait for the third master's house."< br>
Chen Tianshui was happy: "Then you go and invite your third uncle. I'll pack up and change clothes at home."
In order to know the result yesterday, he went to Chen's house wearing a short jacket, even the mud on his feet. They have never been cleaned. Thinking about it now, Chen Tianshui still felt a little uncomfortable. Now that Xue Guanglin came to the door again, Chen Tianshui felt that he could not lose etiquette again today.
When Chen Tianshui and the clan elders arrived at Chen's house, Tan You and Xue Guanglin also arrived at the door. Everyone consciously slowed down and waited. After all, this kind of thing should be discussed together.
The result of the conversation is naturally gratifying. The Chen family has another mosquito coil workshop. Compared with soap, mosquito-repellent incense workshops undoubtedly deliver products faster and can be put into production faster.
After all, the space and raw materials it requires can be collected as long as you are willing.
Of course, as soon as the contract was established, Tan You's warehouse was completely emptied. Tan You doesn't care. After the workshop starts production, you can just go to the workshop to buy whatever you want in the future.
Sent off Xue Guanglin, Chen Tianshui gnashed his teeth and said, "No wonder you asked people to dry mugwort leaves yesterday. It turned out that you were preparing for now."
Tan You: "The number of mugwort leaves on the mountain It’s limited. I suggest you organize people to go out to collect the goods, just like buying lard.”
Chen Tianshui calculated the manpower in the clan: “Okay, I will arrange people to go to several neighboring villages. Collect mugwort leaves."
Tan You won't interfere in this regard: "The village chief will take care of it, now the tribesmen won't complain, right?"
"How could it be?" Chen Tianshui laughed loudly: "It's too late for them to be happy now."
There is a dedicated person in charge of purchasing raw materials when going out, and the young people also started the work of burning charcoal and grinding elm tree powder. Even children, they are running around in the mountains and fields, collecting mugwort leaves and bringing them to the workshop. The workshop will keep accounts for them and settle the accounts together at the end of the month.
For a time, almost every house was drying mugwort leaves in their yard.
Ten days later, the first batch of mosquito coils from Chen’s workshop was shipped away by Sihai Grocery Store. After taking the five taels of silver from the other party, Chen Tianshui's lips trembled with excitement.
The tribesmen who were watching were also excited: "Is there money now?"
"Not only that, I heard that in five or six days, the first batch of soap will be unmoulded." An aunt said softly: "Our workshop has not stopped these days, and soap will be produced every day from now on."
"Great! Mingguang, how much soap can we produce in the first batch?" Aunt Hua saw that Chen Xi was nearby, so she simply asked Chen Xi about the situation.
Chen Xi smiled and said, "The first batch of basic soap products is about 800 yuan, and the mugwort and mint soap is 400 yuan. The workshop is expected to make fifteen taels of revenue."
" That's fifteen taels of silver." An aunt clapped her hands: "That's quite a lot. Then we ship every day, how many fifteen taels will it cost?”
Chen Xi corrected: “That’s not the calculation. We also invested a lot. Everyone went around buying lard in the scorching sun. These labor costs? It all counts.”
"Isn't manpower the least valuable?" An aunt didn't take it seriously. Indeed, in everyone's opinion, the manpower of the poor is the least valuable.
Chen Xi: "That's wrong. If it weren't for the uncles who went out to collect raw materials, the soap workshop would not be able to continue. Their contribution is huge and manpower is very precious." She was following Tan You learned that even though human power is not that precious in everyone's eyes, in Tan You's view, it is not like this.
“It is because of the raw materials that the workshop can continue to operate. Of course, the aunts and grandmothers are also indispensable. In short, the workshop cannot survive without anyone.”
Chen Xi said one last thing, which made these aunts and uncles feel very good. Tan You watched this scene from a distance and thought that Chen Xi was really a good steward.
"Mingguang, does the workshop pay... wages every month?" An aunt was not familiar with these new words, and she was still stuck when it came to wages.
Chen Xi said sternly: "My mother said half of the payment in the first month, because we need to leave enough funds to run the business. In the meantime, we need to purchase raw materials and various equipment for the workshop."
"But after next month, we should be fully paid."
"I don't know how much salary we can get." An aunt supported me. Ba, with some longing in his eyes: "I heard that a twelve-year-old boy working in the town earns about ten cents a day."
"We are right in front of home, and I am not greedy. I can make it in a month." I will be satisfied with one hundred cents." Aunt Hua smiled and said, "We are usually busy for half a day, and we can go back to work the rest of the time."
Chen Xi felt a little sour in his heart, and felt that everyone was so easily satisfied: "My mother-in-law said she would discuss the wages with the clan elders. Wages are set based on the shipment volume of the workshop."
" The more goods the workshop produces, the higher everyone’s wages will definitely be.”
The village chief’s wife rubbed Chen Xi’s head: “The light is coming. Now that she is so good, I decided to let my daughter learn to be a housekeeper. Do you think Ming Guang can tell everything about the workshop? My mother learned it. My mother is very good.”
“Yes, the eldest lady is very good.” The village chief’s wife smiled: “Your mother has something to do with you.”
"Then I'll go over first," Chen Xi hurriedly walked towards Tan You behind the aunts.
"So happy?" Looking at the smile on the little girl's face, Tan You asked softly.
"Happy," Chen Xi nodded fiercely: "Seeing that everyone's life is gradually getting better, I am happy."
Tan You also smiled: "As long as you are happy, Are you tired of learning this?”
Chen Xi shook his head: “No, I like this very much”
Tan You: "As long as you like it, we Mingguang are good seedlings in charge of things."
While everyone was anxiously waiting, the soap was finally released from the mold, and Sihai Grocery also arrived in Miaogou Village as soon as possible. . Almost every villager was present to watch this grand delivery event.
Xue Guanglin also came over this time: "Madam, there are soaps and soaps from the clan waiting in the shop now, which saves me a lot of trouble."
Shopkeeper Fan also On the side, he said: "These days, the purchase of soaps and soaps in the store is restricted, so I can breathe a sigh of relief now."
