Chapter 165 Invite people again
Gu Jinli said: "Aunt Tian, I propose to hire people not only because I think everyone is too tired, but also because I want our family to make more money."
"We have few people. Even if we keep working, we can make up to 1,500 kilograms of tofu a day. If we hire soone to grind the beans and we order the tofu ourselves, it will be much faster. We can make three thousand kilograms of tofu in a day. . The more we make this tofu, the more we earn."
"There are also seasonings and spices. Grinding spices is a very labor-intensive job. Grandma Yan and the others can grind only a dozen kilograms in one day, which is not enough to sell. If you ask soone to help, not to ntion a dozen kilograms a day, forty or fifty kilograms. It can be polished."
"This seasoning is different from tofu. It can be kept for a year. Let's order a batch of clay pots and sell them to others, and let others transport them to other places for sale. This can make a lot of money."
Compared to tofu, she is more optimistic about seasonings and spices. This is the business that can grow and prosper.
Gu Jinli quickly made a calculation for everyone: "If we can make three thousand kilograms of tofu and fifty kilograms of seasonings and spices in one day, we can earn at least fifty taels of silver that day."
"You can earn fifty taels of silver a day!" The whole family was shocked.
"Yes, you can indeed earn so much." Gu Jinli looked at Aunt Tian and said, "Aunt Tian, you don't have to worry about the wages. We can earn dozens of taels more for just two taels of silver a day. It's very worthwhile. "
When several families heard this, they no longer worried about the wages, and all agreed to hire people: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's hire people quickly."
However, Gu Dafu was a little worried: "If we ask soone to grind beans, wouldn't everyone know that tofu is made of soybeans? If soone does sothing bad and puts sothing into the soy milk, what will happen if our tofu eats the bad guy? There are also seasonings, Ask soone to grind the spices, and they will know the types of spices, and then our recipe will be revealed."
What Gu Dafu said was exactly what several families were worried about.
Gu Jinli had already thought of a way and said with a smile: "Even if they know that tofu is made from soybeans ground into pulp, they still can't make tofu. If you want to make tofu, the marinade is the key. As long as we make the marinade With their hands, they cant make tofu.
The sa goes for spices. As long as they dont know the proportions, they will never be able to make spices that taste delicious. They will only make spices that are very strong and difficult to swallow.
The raw materials of spices are very strong in taste, and they need to be blended in a certain proportion to neutralize the taste and make it fresh and fragrant.
"As for the worry that spices and soy milk will be stuffed with sothing, we can sign a contract with the workers and implent a joint-seating system. If there is a problem with the tofu and seasonings, all the workers must compensate us for the losses. Seriously, We can also send them to the authorities for investigation, so no one can escape."
This is indeed a good idea, but...
Isnt it too harsh? It was Mrs. Chen who said this. Even she said so, and several other mbers of the family felt that this thod was a bit too much.
Gu Jinli shook his head: "It's not cruel at all. Only if they all sit together, the people doing the work will have so scruples. Otherwise, if soone deliberately causes trouble and then blas the problem on another person, our tofu and spices will still have problems."
What she wants to ensure is that no one dares to get involved in tofu and spices, so sitting together is the best way. People who work will automatically supervise others in order to protect themselves.
After hearing what she said, the family mbers were silent for a while, then nodded and said, "That's what Xiaoyu said, so that's what we'll do."
"How will we pay them? How much money should we pay them a month?" Mrs. Chen cares about money the most. If she is given too much, she will feel pain to death.
Gu Jinli said: "It's not calculated by month, it's calculated by catty. Grind a catty of soybeans and filter them, and you'll be given one penny. As for seasonings and spices, if they're easy to grind, you'll be given twenty cents per catty, and if they're difficult to grind, you'll be given eighty cents per catty. .
This ans the more you work, the more you get. If you are given a monthly paynt, the workers will inevitably work hard.
After hearing this, several mbers of the family felt that it would be better to calculate the weight by kilogram, and they all nodded in agreent.
As for the matter of coming forward to invite people, it was left to Third Grandpa and Gu Dashan.
The third grandpa is experienced, but Gu Dashan needs training. Now the third grandpa is leading Gu Dashan and teaching him all the things that old man Gu has not taught Gu Dashan. Third Grandpa said: "He Laoguo and the others can clear up all the wasteland tomorrow. Let's see if they can do the job then. If they can, it's better to ask them."
He Laoguo helped them open up wasteland and did a good job. They were all honest and responsible people.
If we invite them, but the manpower is still not enough, I will talk to the village chief He and ask him to help invite people. With his help, the He family will be more afraid and can have a good relationship with him.
Even though Village Chief He treated them badly when they first ca to the village, it was still necessary for them to get along better with the Village Chief if they wanted to live in the village.
After talking about inviting people, it was already dark, and several families got up and went ho.
Today, when I was doing my monthly accounting, my third grandma was very happy when she learned that she had made so much money. She went to the backyard to catch a pheasant and planned to kill it to reward everyone.
Gu Jinli saw it and asked with a smile: "Third Grandma, didn't you say you want to keep pheasants to lay eggs and build nests?"
After arriving in Dafeng Village, they went into the mountains several tis and caught so pheasants, but the third grandmother was reluctant to eat them and said she wanted to keep them and raise them so that they could lay eggs and nest in them.
The third grandma knew that she was asking on purpose, so she glared at her and said, "You still dare to tease , am I that stingy to you, the third grandma? Of course I'm willing to feed you after making money."
As he spoke, he carried the pheasant to the kitchen and killed it quickly. Half of it was used for stew and half of it was braised.
That night, their family drank delicious chicken soup and ate fragrant braised chicken.
The next day, He Laoguo and the others went out to open up wasteland. As usual, they first went to Gu Jinli's house to say hello to Third Grandpa and the others.
In the past, when you went to work in the town, you had to inform your employer every day when you left work. This was the rule. Although they were now working in the village, they still insisted on abiding by this rule.
The third grandfather was waiting for them. When he saw them coming, he stopped them and told them that he wanted to hire soone to grind beans and spices.
He Laoguo and the others were worried that they would have no work to do after clearing the wasteland. When they heard this, they were naturally happy. When they asked about the wages again, they were completely shocked.
Gu, Brother Gu, how much do you think we pay for grinding a pound of soybeans? He Laoguo stared at the third grandpa with his sowhat cloudy eyes wide open and asked, holding the third grandpa with his calloused hands.
Third Grandpa smiled and said, "Grind a pound of soybeans, filter them, and give one penny."
Hey, its really a penny! He Laoguo was extrely excited. He had seen Gu Dafu and others working, grinding a pound of soybeans and filtering them. In a short ti, one person could grind at least a hundred pounds of soybeans in a day, which was worth a hundred cents. After a month, there will be three taels of silver, three taels of silver, He Laoguo is going crazy with joy.
He Shengzi was listening from the side and had already taken the lead in saying: "Grandpa Gu San, the four of us will do this work."
His family is extrely poor, and they not only have to support their younger sister, but also their elderly and frail grandparents. He is also sixteen, and at the age when he wants to get married, if he doesn't sacrifice his life to work, he will have to be a bachelor in this life.
Thats right, thats right, all four of our families have taken care of this job. He Tugou said quickly, fearing that soone would steal his job.
Third Grandpa said: "Don't worry, just listen to what I have to say. You don't think this job is profitable, but if you want to work for our family, you have to sign a contract."
Third Grandpa called Gu Jinan and asked him to read to them the contract he wrote last night.
