Chapter 270 People are prosperous
Yun Niang asked very quickly: "Liu Qi just re-read the delivery standards written by Manager Qin to us all. It says that every book box must be equipped with two shoulder straps?"

Qin Yao ate her meal with a big mouthful, unable to speak. She nodded when she heard the words and looked at her to ask if she had any questions.He's craftsmanship is already very good, and now Qiu's details are added to it. Oh my god, she didn't know the workers were eating so well!

He lowered his head and put another big mouthful of multi-grain steamed buns soaked in vegetable soup into his mouth. It was so delicious.

In the same venue, Qin Yao was in high spirits and Yun Niang looked confused.

"Originally, we bought it ready-made from the embroidery shop in the county, which was a bit expensive. Now the quantity we need has suddenly changed from [-] to [-]. After all, it's even more expensive!"

She suggested hesitantly: "I was just thinking, how about we give it to the wives from several nearby villages to make it?"

Qin Yao asked doubtfully: "Can their embroidery work meet our standards?"

Yun Niang nodded wildly, "Okay, okay. There are several embroiderers in the villages near us who are very skilled in craftsmanship, and the patterns on the shoulder straps are very simple. If they do it, we only need to give them the raw materials, and then give them dozens of Just make some money."

Yun Niang had just calculated the cost. It turned out that she went to the embroidery shop to buy a ready-made shoulder strap. A shoulder strap cost them ninety cash, but if they asked the women in the village to make it, the cost might only be fifty or sixty cash.

The fabric of the shoulder straps does not need to be too good, it just needs to be strong and soft to relieve shoulder pressure.

There is a difference of thirty or forty cents between fifty or sixty cents and ninety cents, a difference of ten thousand, which is three to four hundred taels of silver.

After Qin Yao finished eating the food in the jar, Mrs. Qiu took the initiative to take away the jar and chopsticks and wash them. She just waited for Qin Yao's "empty bowl". After washing, she would finish today's work and go home~
Yun Niang glanced at He's Qiu's sister-in-law with envy, and continued to talk to Qin Yao about the specific details of the operation.

For example, they can still buy fabrics and needlework from embroidery shops in the city. When the quantity is large, the cost and price can be lowered, and then they can notify nearby embroidery ladies to come and get the work.

It is best if a village has a capable embroiderer who is responsible for supervising the work, helping with inspections and delivering cloth, so that unified management can be facilitated.

What’s more, you’ll be charged by the piece. If you do more, you’ll get more, if you do less, you’ll get less. The price of each piece of embroidery work can be clearly marked. The embroidery girls in the city are very good at charging high prices, but the shoulder straps are actually very expensive. For them, this is killing a chicken with a knife.

The embroiderers in the village only pay fifteen or twenty cents for one piece, and there are many people rushing to do this job.

If you are quick with your hands and feet, you can make two pairs of shoulder straps in one day.

Qin Yao looked at Yun Niang in amazement. She knew how to use a knife to kill a chicken.

Think again about Yun Niang a year ago. She was dedicated to guarding the small stall at home. She spoke softly and rarely went out. She was not as decisive and courageous as she is now.

"Mr. Qin, what do you think?" Yun Niang looked at Qin Yao a little uneasily, waiting for her to make a decision.

Qin Yao stood up and said: "Very good. I think your idea is very good. Then I'll do what you said. You first draw up the charter and give it to me. I'll give you the funds after I read it and think it's okay." manage."

Yun Niang was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly, saying that she would definitely handle this matter well.

But then, I suddenly remembered that I couldn't write a word, I only knew how to flick ink, and my smile fell.

Qin Yao knew what she was worried about, and suggested that she could use drawings if she couldn't write, or tell her after adjusting the order of things clearly in her mind.

"Or, you can find someone who can write for you." Qin Yao smiled and looked at Liu Qi, who was already being pressed by Liu Zhong in front of the stone mill, trying to count, and winked at Yun Niang.

Yun Niang laughed "Hey", she understood.Qin Yao has been in the factory all afternoon, helping out whenever necessary. With her joining, everyone seems to be more energetic at work.

The happiest person was Carpenter Liu. When Qin Yao came, all the responsibilities on his shoulders were lifted, and he could sit on the wood pile with Uncle Jiu and smoke a dry cigarette.

The two looked at the new factory that was about to be completed, with bright smiles and bright eyes.

In the evening, workers gathered from various villages returned home together after work.

There used to be few people on the mountain paths all year round, but now you can hear the echoes of people chatting.

The sound echoed in the silent valley, bringing infinite vitality to these excessively quiet mountains and forests.

The villagers of Liujia Village who were working in the fields looked at the young workers returning home from work as the sun set, and felt that such days were getting more and more exciting.

And all this is because a stationery factory was built in the village, which became popular and prosperous.

Qin Yao walked home on the tail of the setting sun and walked through the fields by the river. The villagers she met along the way greeted her.

She had children in the stationery factory and told her to tell them if her children were disobedient and they would help her deal with those brats.

If there is a daughter in the family, she will proudly say: "Our daughter is capable and sensible. We don't need to worry about Mrs. Qin. The factory manager will definitely handle the tasks assigned by us!"

Because there is no restriction on men and women in the factory, many unmarried or soon-to-be-married girls have joined Yun Niang's painter's team. Because they all look like women at first glance, Sister-in-law Zhou even jokingly calls them a women's army.

The wages the girl received were two cents more than the average male carpenter. The wages were twelve cents a day. After the settlement, she took home a heavy package of copper coins.

Only then did the tribesmen discover that girls can also make money to support their families and themselves, and they are very capable.

The clan elders who used to talk about the prosperity of the population every day but did not admit that girls also belong to the population, now see the girls smiling and going home with them after work, they can't help but laugh no matter how hard they talk. Whispering continuously:

"It's prosperous, it's prosperous."

Several families with only daughters drove away the matchmakers who came to see the girls, saying that their girls were not in a hurry to get married now and would wait for a few more years to raise them.

These 15-year-old girls are the main force in the factory. Not only can they make money but they can also provide subsidies for their families. Who would dislike them for staying at home and eating more food when they are older?

I just look forward to staying a few more years and providing good food, drink and clothing to my aunt.

However, there were a few people who were gnawing on their children's marrow and bones. The supervisors above were paying attention and took away their wages and told them to come back to them if they wanted to use the money, so as not to be robbed by those bastards.

With the stationery factory as their backer, these poor children can now secretly buy some delicious food for their teeth, and their faces have gained a bit of color.

The villagers didn't know how to say nice things, but their gratitude was almost overflowing from their eyes. Qin Yao was about to walk away, but they were still watching from a distance, asking her to remember to call the children to come home to pick vegetables and mulberries, and dig peanuts. Eat at home.

Qin Yao was most afraid of this, so she accepted the kindness, but her pace quickened, and she almost ran to her house in hiding. The door slammed shut, shutting out the enthusiasm that was about to overwhelm her.
