Chapter 383: Come on and work hard
In fact, there is no need to worry about selling the colored glass in Jinningfang.
So after learning that Prince Kang was selling 1,800 pieces of glass a day, instead of being particularly happy, Chen Dongyue felt a little distressed about Jin Ningfang's bottomed-out inventory.
Even more unhappy than Chen Dongyue were the two master craftsmen from Liulichang and the two apprentices they brought with them.
In the past few days, the two master craftsmen have been working overtime day and night like lighting lamps and boiling wax. The oil has been boiled out by the kiln, and they have saved so much inventory.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their old work for half a day. They helped Kong Jie improve his iron hand and made a prosthetic leg for who knows who.
But after just one day of relief, the two masters were informed that Jin Ningfang's inventory was running low again.
Who will let this matter go? Who will not collapse?
"Boss, if you really can't do it, just raise the price of this colored glass! I don't believe it. If you sell a piece of glass for one hundred taels, someone will still want it!"
The person who said this was Master Lu, who was wearing a short jacket, his face was shiny, and his complexion was red with a hint of caramel.
"Then you don't understand rich people," Chen Dongyue stretched out her index finger that countless people wanted to break off and waved it in front of Master Lu, "The more expensive you are, the more rich people will flock to you. . Do you know why? Because what people buy is identity and status, not the product itself."
"...What do you mean?!" Master Lu didn't understand what nonsense Chen Dongyue was talking about.
If you don’t buy something for the sake of it, what else is it for? !
The rich are just rich, they are not stupid.
"It doesn't matter what you mean," Chen Dongyue shook her head and said, "What's important is that we have to mention the output of our Liulichang."
"It can't be done!!" Master Qi, who was busy using racks and hemp ropes to adjust the thickness of the glaze, suddenly raised his head and complained to Chen Dongyue, "To maintain the current output, we are all so busy that we have to poop and urinate together. Go to the hut, no more is really possible.
Master, look at my disciple. It turns out that the reason why he is called Xiaohai is because the child looks like the sea, with magnificent waves.
But these days, I stand by the kiln for five or six hours every day, and the children are exhausted! ! "
"Hahahaha, Master Ding is really good at describing," Chen Dongyue smiled a little heartlessly, "I said to increase production, but I don't want you to do more work.
I want to get a few more cauldrons and buy some people. At that time, besides working, the two of them will only have to take care of their apprentices. "
Master Lu and Master Ding both looked at Chen Dongyue with expressions of despair.
From the dim eyes of the two people, Chen Dongyue saw the ugly face of his own capitalist.
She said "haha" twice in embarrassment, and then said: "As long as you two bring the apprentice out, you can focus on management and technical skills from now on.
By the way, in order to reward you two for your hard work, starting from next month, your wages will be increased by another two taels of silver per month. "
The two masters, who were originally slightly rickety, instantly straightened their backs.
When the two masters came with Chen Dongyue, Chen Dongyue promised that as long as the glass was successfully fired, the two masters would be rewarded with ten taels of silver a month.
Now Chen Dongyue adds this to the wages, and the two masters can get one hundred and forty-four taels of silver every year.
What is the concept of salary level?
Take Master Lu as an example. The blacksmith shop he used to open in the capital was considered a good business, but if he could earn seventy or eighty taels a year, it was already considered a very good business.
These seven or eighty taels do not include the food and clothing expenses of the disciples and their families.
If you include all these expenses, you can probably save more than ten taels of silver every year.
This condition is not bad among the general public.
But now Master Lu is in Liulichang, and he doesn't have to spend money on food and clothing. If he wants to go out for a walk, he can, but he has to let Song Yang and the others take him with him.
In order to avoid trouble, these four people never went out since they arrived at Dehe Villa.
It’s like losing all your usual expenses.
One hundred and forty-four taels, almost all of it can be saved.
Chen Dongyue signed a ten-year contract with them, one hundred and forty-four taels per year, and one thousand, four hundred and forty taels in ten years.
net.
Let’s just say that this kind of treatment is not even available to managers of big families!
The two master blacksmiths swore to Chen Dongyue that as long as they couldn't do it to death, they would do it to death.
They promise to take care of the newcomers and improve Kong Jie's elbow if they have free time.
Chen Dongyue was very pleased with the enthusiasm of the two masters in their work.
But when she turned around, she saw the mountains and the sea looking at her pitifully.
Chen Dongyue understood, "You two will also get a monthly salary increase of five hundred!"
Dashan Xiaohai's eyes burst out with such intense light that Chen Dongyue was so frightened that she had to hide behind the two masters.
After all, as apprentices, in most places they only care about food and do not pay wages.
However, for the sake of being diligent and honest, Chen Dongyue gave them both a salary of 500 cash per month.
Now add five hundred yuan, which means the two apprentices have one or two silvers a month.
One tael of silver! What a concept!
That’s one tael of silver!
In short, once the salary increases, everyone will be happy.
After Chen Dongyue gave everyone a raise, she turned around and went to the flower garden to find Song Yun.
"What does my sister-in-law want from me?"
Because Chen Dongyue usually wouldn't come to her when nothing happened, so when she heard that her sister-in-law came to see her specially, Song Yun felt a little uneasy.
"Ayun," Chen Dongyue touched Song Yun's hand and smiled with a vulgar expression, "My little hands are so tender~~~~ It looks like she is a person in charge."
"Ah?!" Song Yun's hand was squeezed by her sister-in-law, and she immediately began to sweat. "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"
"Ayun~~~ Do you have any thoughts about your second brother becoming the shopkeeper of Liuyunxuan?" Chen Dongyue smiled with her eyebrows crooked, feeling like a wily fox.
Song Yun was completely confused and asked subconsciously, "Sister-in-law, did my second brother get into trouble again?"
"No, no, no," Chen Dongyue shook her head quickly, "Your second brother, besides not being very good at chatting with customers, he bought two bad paintings at a high price, was deceived by a poor scholar into taking away two lone ancient books, and sold one made by a master at a low price. Apart from the solitary inkstone, everything else is pretty good."
.....Song Yun opened her mouth slightly, but didn't know how to defend her second brother, so she had to shut her mouth angrily.
"Sister-in-law, how much damage has my second brother caused you? I will discuss it with my mother tomorrow and we will definitely compensate you."
After struggling for a long time, Song Yun thought about it, but she still had to express her attitude.
After all, Liu Yunxuan was opened by her sister-in-law, and her second brother was just the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper has caused losses to his boss, and he must compensate for it. If he says it is his sister-in-law, he will make his sister-in-law suffer.
I just don’t know if they can afford to compensate for the losses caused by her good second brother to her sister-in-law...
