Chapter 87 Recruitment
Li Qing likes her aunt's life. Why is she not her aunt's daughter? If she is her aunt's daughter, she can live a life of food and clothing without worrying about buying and spending, and she thinks she is not inferior to Huang's at all.
After the three of them finished their breakfast, Huang asked them why they came here today.
"This is not Qing'er talking about you, saying that she hasn't seen her aunt for a while, so she brought her to see you," Xiao Huang said, "I'm afraid that you will be bored and have no one to talk to, come and accompany you."
The most troubles are not only the farmyard, but also the landlord Wu family. Although the two old men have left long ago, the landlord Wu has several wives. Huang is not a proper wife, and he has been excluded a lot because of his son. Xiao Huang's words are considered to be Huang's heart. Sisters can say what they think about, thinking about him like Li Qing.
"Yes, aunt, Qing'er misses you very much." Li Qing showed a cute and well-behaved look on her face. "I haven't seen my aunt for a while, and my aunt has become beautiful again."
"Our Qing'er's mouth is so sweet, it's good. If anyone marrys you in the future, who will be blessed?" Huang smiled and pinched Li Qing's nose with his hands.
Huang and Xiao Huang were talking in the room. Li Qing slipped aside and lifted the curtains in the inner room. Inside was Huang's place to rest and sleep. A dark red bed made of cherry wood was hung with crimson curtains on the bed. Next to it was a dressing table and dressing stool of the same color. There were some beautiful boxes and rouge, powder, and gold hairpins on the dressing table. This was Li Qing's favorite place. Every time she came back to the Wu family, she would come to touch it.
A few days ago, Huang put three sets of beauty products from Manager Zhou on the dressing table, and the rest were received in the cabinet. Li Qing's eyes were very sharp and he could see them at first sight.
I said, my aunt must have it here. She smiled and walked forward, picked up a bottle of beauty water from the dressing table.
This bottle is really beautiful. Li Qing held it in her hand and couldn't let it go. She opened the bottle plug and a faint fragrance floated over. It smelled so much, it was the fragrance of flowers.
"Qing'er, what are you doing there?" Huang and Xiao Huang were chatting, and just hearing Xiao Huang complain. Her sister was like this, and she always talked about how bad her family's conditions were.
Li Qing stood there with the bottle, "Auntie, what is this? It smells so good."
Huang came over, "This is a beauty product. The one you hold is beauty water. This is made of petals. Of course it smells good."
Li Qing and Xiao Huang came here today for this. I didn’t expect that my aunt had so many bottles here, so it was not a big problem to ask for a few bottles, so Li Qing whispered, “It turns out that my aunt is just making her beautiful. Qing'er likes this beauty bottle. Can my aunt give Qing'er this beauty product?”
It is hard for the child to refuse Huang's request. After all, it is not a big deal. It's just this beauty product. There are several sets in his cabinet. He is generous at the moment, "Okay, Qing'er likes it, my aunt will give you one set, you can pick two bottles."
When Xiao Huang heard this, he hurriedly came over and said, "Sister, you can give me a set too. Look at my skin on my face."
What can Huang do? When Xiao Huang heard that Huang had several useless sets in the cabinet, he took away all three sets on the table with shamelessness. This beauty product cost five taels of silver. Qing'er said that the things were expensive and it was difficult to buy now. Even if he didn't use them, he would sell them to others. This would be a lot of money.
The old lady who was married by Wu Landlord, looked at Huang's sister carrying something that looked quite heavy, and walked out of the Wu family's courtyard with a smile, spitting out the melon seeds, "No matter what, if this continues, will the things in our house be emptied by outsiders?"
"Who said no?" The second wife next to her continued, "The so-called emergency rescue but not poverty. Huang's heart will only harm herself in the end."
Li Qing showed off when she got the beauty product home. Who wouldn't know that there was a rich relative in her family, and probably got it from there. She was envious and jealous. Li Qing wiped it in front of the bronze mirror according to Huang's teachings. She felt that she was the most beautiful.
The desired effect has been achieved. Chuxia discussed with Sister Zhou that this beauty product can be sold in large quantities. Sister Zhou also released the news in advance, and everyone was waiting. So Chuxia's workshop has been very busy recently. In addition to Shitou Town, two shops in other towns also have to start selling this. If three shops are sold together and the goods are constantly being kept, then you must make sufficient preparations in the early stage.
In the early summer, I decided to add staff! While adding staff, I would increase my wages! After all, the profits of this beauty product are much more profitable, and I am not an unscrupulous boss. As long as everyone works hard, she will not be stingy to give more wages.
Everyone around you know that Cui'er and the daughter of the Ge family, Chunhua, work in the Liu family's workshop. They say it's twenty cents of silver a day, and that month is six hundred cents of silver. It's already a lot for ordinary people. They are envious of how much they can earn by placing shoes and embroidering clothes. There are also work in embroidering fabric bags. You say you can do it, but Liu didn't look for him, and the thin-skinned person is embarrassed to ask.
Niu'er's family regretted it so much that they had known that Chu Xia would have agreed when she asked her girl to work. Maybe she had already gotten back a lot of money now, but her family refused and they also found Chunhua to help with the work.
Niu'er felt a little embarrassed when she saw Chuxia, but Chuxia felt nothing.
"You still have to find someone to help with the work?" Liu heard Chuxia say that he wanted to find a few people.
"Yes, mom, there are only three of us in the workshop now. With more volume, there will definitely be insufficient staff." Chu Xia said, she also had her own considerations. She had thought about it. Since she planned to make beauty products, of course it was not limited to this. She also wanted to develop more beauty products in the future. "You should also find two more people to make fabric bags. I think fabric bags are not enough, and I plan to increase my salary. Fabric bags will increase by 30 cents per fabric bag. The wages in our workshop will also increase to 30 cents a day. If the money is in place, people can work harder."
Liu had no objection. Anyway, I heard Chuxia, and I could do whatever Chuxia said. After listening to Chuxia's words, I went out and found someone. This time Chuxia did not go to find someone again, so I asked Liu to tell me who would come to work in whose house.
Both Liu and Chuxia did not expect that this statement caused a commotion near their homes. The threshold of their homes was broken and they were all looking for work from home, but they couldn't get so many people. Anyway, they planned to find two more people in the workshop and two more people embroidered fabric bags. As for whether they still need people in the future, it depends on the situation, but the current plan is like this.
"I tell you, my girl has worked since she was a child and she did a good job..."
"You let my daughter work here and promise to do it well for you. If you don't work hard, tell me that I will go home and kill her..."
Some people even took their daughter to come and left the person in Chuxia's yard, and went back by themselves.
Liu and Chuxia: “…”
Chuxia is very troubled now. If she had known that it was the current situation, she would have been better to secretly find two people. This is the case, but the key point is that she didn't expect that there would be so many people coming.
Liu is not much better. You say, who do you need to use or who is not good at the aunts nearby? They are all living together recently. They look down and see each other. The Han family and others I have been looking for before. Liu wants to help her because of the poor family’s family. Some people are broken, and now it’s even more so. Maybe they will talk about their own affairs outside.
The nearby townspeople don’t know what the Chuxia family’s workshop is, and they probably know that it is said that it is something called beauty products that are applied to their faces. It is quite right what Cui'er’s mother said. The low-end society they live in is not so circulating. At present, I don’t know that the beauty products made in Chuxia are so valuable. I only know that the wages she owns are good.
Niu'er walked into Chuxia's door in a hesitant manner. It was her mother who heard that Chuxia's family was recruiting people to work and insisted on asking herself. You said that the last time someone asked you, you refused them. Why did they come and ask with shamelessness? If she didn't come, her mother chased her and there was no way, so she had to come and ask.
"Aunt Liu, is Chuxia at home?" Niu'er asked Liu.
Mrs. Liu has been troubled by people coming and going to the house these two days. If you come, you will not be stern and you have to deal with it. You are also weak now and pointed to the workshop and said, "It's there."
Chuxia was packing the beauty products, but Cui'er first appeared the girl standing at the door and shouted, "Niu'er, why are you here?"
"I, I'm here to look for Chuxia, there's something wrong?"
Looking for yourself? Chuxia put down the work in her hand and walked out. The two of them came to the yard. Chuxia spoke, "What's the matter with me?"
Niu'er said in a tangled manner, "I heard that your workshop is looking for someone to work again. I, I know that last time I was not good. You were not angry with me last time, right? I want to ask, is your family still short of people working? Can you let me work? I promise I will do it well."
It turned out that this was the case. I had looked for her last time, but she refused and didn't say the reason. "Then I can ask you what caused you to refuse last time, and why did you want to come this time?" I have to ask clearly, no.
Niu'er decided to tell the truth, "My family, I don't know where you moved from. I'm not very familiar with you. I'm afraid I'll be deceived when I come to your house to work, so I didn't let me come before."
This makes sense and understandable. Niu'er was originally the one she chose before. If she could come to work, she would save herself the trouble of finding people. Listening to what Niu'er said, this time she came to find herself, and her family members should have agreed, "Okay, then come tomorrow. I'll let Cui'er lead you to work, the salary is thirty cents a day."
When he heard Chu Xia agreed, and the salary was more than before, Niu'er nodded excitedly as if a chicken pecked at rice, "Okay, thank you, I will work hard."
Chuxia raised wages for both Cui'er and Chunhua. Of course they were very happy. This was something that neither of them expected. Cui'er thought that this beauty product could be sold for a lot of money, so the wages given to herself would be high. She asked Chuxia tentatively, "How much does this beauty product cost?"
No one asked before, and Chuxia didn't say that when he met Cui'er, the price was not good enough to hide it from the two of them, "This beauty product is sold for five taels of silver."
"Five, Five Taxes", which Cui'er didn't expect. She also thought that this thing is the most, at most seven or eight hundred liters per set. For her, it was a big silver. Thinking of the set given to her before Chuxia, she had to take it back and use it, that was five taels of silver. She just applied silver to her face every day, and her heart felt so painful. If she had known that this beauty product was so valuable, she would have sold it herself and she would have obtained the silver? No, the thing would not be used when she went back, so she had to save it.
Chunhua was also surprised when she heard the price, but she didn't have many ideas. From the packaging of the beauty bottle, she knew that this thing was not cheap, and it was definitely not something that someone like her could afford. She knew Chuxia was planning to find someone recently, and Niu'er came here for this matter just now. She actually wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to speak. After all, she was already very grateful to her for work here and how much she could pay.
When I saw the spring flowers in the early summer, I was hesitating and a little confused, and asked jokingly, "Why do I seem to be absent-minded today? Is there something wrong?"
Chunhua thought about it and plucked up the courage to ask, "I know a friend who also fled together. Her family's conditions were not good. On the way to escape, she helped our family and distributed the food to my younger brother and sister. I heard that you are looking for someone these two days, so I wanted to ask, can my friend come to work? I promise that she is very good and kind, and will not be lazy when doing work."
After Chunhua finished speaking, she was waiting for the response from Chu Xia.
If you can think of the person who has helped you in a bad condition, Chu Xia smiled, "Okay, let her come over, I will see if the person is good, you have helped me. I have been worried these two days, and it just happened to be solved."
Liu wants to be a good person, but it is difficult to be a good person. Chuxia directly gave advice, "Mom, don't worry, we give money, we want others to work for them. Those who are not good at embroidery work and still hold you, just tell them directly, just choose the people who are good at embroidery work."
Finally, Liu chose two people who were good at making fabric bags among the people who came to find him, so that he finally found all the people.
The effect of the extra manpower was immediately effective. The beauty products I stocked up before were transported to two other stores by Sister Zhou, and now the products are delivered to the shops in Shitou Town every day. The promotion was so long in the early stage that even though the price was very expensive, the goods were rushing to buy them as soon as they arrived at the store. The sounds of the other two stores were also very good, and they needed to ship the goods from time to time.
In front of Chuxia's house, I saw ox carts coming and going all day long, and I delivered beauty products to the outside. Now there are more people and it is more convenient to coordinate. It is made, packed, and packed goods in an orderly manner. Chuxia is responsible for testing beauty products, accounting, etc., and thinking about new things in my mind in my spare time.
The ox cart came late that day. Zhang Anmin went to the town to do business and did not return to the store. He went home directly. Seeing the scene of everyone busying with everyone, everyone sighed, "Our daughter is much more capable than me."
"That's right, don't look at whose daughter I am," Chu Xia said mischievously.
