Chapter 26 Hiring
"Twenty silver mal?!"

Roy and Adams were startled, and immediately looked at each other.

They are not very concerned about what Xia Lin said about the dry stocks of the factory. After all, they don't understand the concept of dry stocks at present, but twenty silver Maars for ten days means sixty silver Maars for one month. High salaries completely attracted their attention.

As a small leader, Roy is in charge of the two streets below the Copper Hand, and can basically earn sixty or seventy Copper Biss every day.

After handing over part of the money to the higher authorities, the remaining forty or fifty copper pes cents is enough for them to support their respective families, but as soon as Xia Lin opened his mouth, it was a high salary of sixty silver Maars. eager eyes.

"Xia Lin, my good brother, since you have something to do with me and Adams, then just tell me! I'll go and talk to our boss now, but we may have to use your name! "

With the real promise of money, Roy's attitude changed immediately, and he spoke enthusiastically, but when he mentioned leaving the bronze hand, his expression was a little worried.

"Then you guys have signed the contract now and go talk about it! I'll be of use to you later."

Xia Lin naturally didn't care about this kind of thing. He took out the pre-drawn contract, and after the two signed it, Xia Lin immediately gave Roy and Adams [-] silver Maar each.

Seeing their expressions of excitement and apprehension holding the silver coins, Xia Lin was very satisfied with his silver coin offensive.

In this way, there will be directors of the cement factory and the paper mill. As for the director of the brick factory, Xia Lin plans to find Edmund from his neighbor to be the director.

It is no problem to hand over the sugar and refined salt factory to his father, the machine tool factory to his elder brother's father-in-law Blake Barker, the textile factory to Ellen Gregg, and the soda ash factory to be directly managed by Wyatt.

These people are the people he is most familiar with. Although they may not be able to manage a large-scale factory well, there should be no problem in helping him through the initial stage.

After the planning starts, there will always be sharp awls coming out of the pockets, and it will be fine to pick people and replace those who are not capable enough.

According to Xia Lin's vision, the highest level of these factories is the board of directors, and Xia Lin himself is the first director. Except for the textile factory that is going to be handed over to Ellen, all other factories have achieved absolute control. The other directors are naturally the people who invest in these factories.

Naturally, it is impossible to make paper with just Roy and Adams. Xia Lin also plans to temporarily hire ten half-aged youths who are about the same age as her in the neighborhood where she grew up. The daily salary is set at 20 copper pes. , I believe that many people are willing to be hired by themselves.

After hearing that Xia Lin had this idea, Roy said gratefully:
"Xia Lin, you are so generous. I don't know what happened recently. The price of roving in the market has increased by several copper pess, and the price of spun yarn has dropped a lot, so that the spinning chambers in the city are no longer Hire our sisters to spin.

Everyone in the family can only live on the money that my father made on the dock or by the river. The money that Adams and I received every day is much less.

But 20 copper bis is too much, after all, they are some half-grown children, I think you only need 10 copper bis is enough. "

"There is no need to say more about the salary cut. I have the ability to pay this salary, but the price of roving has increased, and the price of spun yarn has fallen..."

Xia Lin's mind moved slightly. It seemed that Ellen's factory had expanded in size during this period.

The potential of Jenny's spinning machine was very clear to Xia Lin, and the carpenters under Ellen might have improved the spinning machine.

In this way, the work efficiency of hundreds of spinners using Jenny machines is equivalent to the work efficiency of tens of thousands of spinners using traditional hand spinning machines. fluctuation.

If this continues, Xia Lin feels that the price of roving will rise a lot, which will definitely make many manor owners choose to switch to cotton after the harvest season, and the price of grain next year may rise as a result.

Xia Lin realized that there was a lot of business opportunity in this news, but his strength was still too weak. Even though he saw this, he was unable to take action.

Shaking his head and putting this thought aside, Xia Lin realized that perhaps the market changes brought about by the spinning jenny machine were not a bad thing for him.

The reluctance of the Spinning Chamber of Commerce to hire workers in the slums means that the jobs that the gray organizations can provide are reduced by half. grassroots.

While thinking about this possibility, Xia Lin came to the neighborhood where he used to live with Roy and others. Adams called out a few children who were playing on the street, and quickly called out all the people in the three streets from door to door.

Although they have left the Copper Hand, the Copper Hand hasn't sent any new land yet, and these people don't know this, so the words between Roy and Adams still have some weight.

"Brothers and sisters, listen to me! I am Roy, I believe you all know him, this Your Excellency is the mage Charlene Karl who walked out of our block, I believe everyone has heard of him.

Today we are not here to take away the pitiful Copperbis in everyone's pockets, but Mr. Xia Lin was born and raised in this block. Rolling people.

He is willing to provide our children with a temporary job for 20 copper bis a day, and all boys aged 15 and above can sign up!We are recruiting ten people this time! "

Roy raised his hand and yelled loudly to a huge group of women, children and half-grown youths. As for those who were lazy and engaged in gray industries, Adams did not let the children yell over.

"20 copper pes? Is it true? Brother Roy, I want to sign up!"

A 17-year-old boy with a fairly tall figure and a childish face immediately raised his hand and shouted when he heard Roy's words.

"Oh my god! I really deserve to be a mage master, I want to sign up too!"

"Brother Roy, can't girls be allowed? My strength is no worse than boys, count me in! If you don't pity me, I will be sent to the 'big house' by my father in a few days!"

Facing a job that could compare with the salary of carrying bags at the pier, everyone became excited. At this time, a thin girl desperately squeezed out of the crowd, waving her hands desperately while shouting.

Xia Lin recognized her as Emily Sharman. The father of the family was a typical jerk in a slum. He didn't want to go to the pier and the river to sell his strength to support the family. He always thought of crooked ways, and the copper hand didn't look like him For such a person, the whole family relies on their mother and her spinning to make ends meet.

During this period of time, the Spinning Chamber of Commerce no longer hired workers in the slums, and their livelihood may have been difficult to maintain.

"This……"

Seeing Emily, Roy immediately looked at Xia Lin with a hesitant expression.

"Then let's count Emily! We will bring a lot of things and stay there for several days, so let her guard the tools and raw materials. Ten people may be a little less, let's add five more."

Xia Lin sighed, and suddenly felt a little ashamed that she was still thinking about the benefits brought by the spinning machine just now.

The dust of the times falling on everyone is like a big mountain. He didn't experience it personally in his previous life, but now he has truly experienced it.

Facing these people who lost their jobs indirectly because of him, Xia Lin felt that if he had the ability, he should still do his part for them.

"Xia Lin, good brother!"

Roy was silent for a moment, patted Xia Lin on the shoulder, turned his head and continued to name the juniors in the crowd who he thought were reliable. As Xia Lin's employee, he had to consider his employer, except for two or three names out of caring Except for the thin child, the others are relatively strong young people with a physique, and Edmund is naturally among them.

After recruiting enough people, Xia Lin first divided them into three groups, each group consisted of five people, with Roy, Adams and Edmund as the group leaders respectively.

After completing the recruitment, Xia Lin took them to the edge of the slum to receive various tools and materials bought by Wyatt, and then a group of people pushed the cart to the other side of the slum.
