Chapter 398 - Is This Fair?
Ji Dynasty.
After lunch, Zhao Ming insisted on taking a walk in the garden. She has eaten too much, so she wanted to take a walk to digest the food, otherwise she will get fat.
Ji Cheng and Wen Ru ended up accompanying her for a walk.
" Brother Wen, how many people work here ?" Zhao Ming asks Wen Ru as she was taking a walk with her hands behind and walking casually.
This is not only a shop where they sell items but they make items themselves. So they need more people for it.
But she didn't see many people working here.
Zhao Ming was humming while walking. Her walk was not at all elegant.
With Ji Cheng, she doesn't need to pretend to be elegant because he has seen her clumsy side so much that she doesn't even care anymore.
Ji Cheng doesn't react to her actions and does not mind her clumsiness either.
Among all the people in this world, Zhao Ming feels more comfortable with Wen Ru and Ji Cheng. Wen Xu and Xiao Li make her feel nauseous.
" Workers? Ahmm….around 22, 12 n and 10 won," he said while walking.
He rembered the exact numbers because only today he was discussing their pay, so he rembered it clearly.
Zhao Ming stopped in her steps and looked at him, " Really?"
She was surprised when she heard his words. Because there were not many people in the pavilion at this mont. Only a few are working, so where are the rest of the employees?
"Hmm. Won are responsible for making the items while n gather the raw material from the forest," he said casually.
" And a few do the daily chores of the pavilion."
"But just now I have checked the warehouse and only a few won were working. Where are the other workers?" she was confused because there are very few people that she can see.
" Ah, so workers have gone to the forest to collect the wood and buy the beads from the market while so won are making items in the warehouse with the spare material. '' Wen Ru replied as he looked at Zhao Ming's curious expressions.
" Oh. But what about the won? There were only a few won in the warehouse at the mont who are working. You said there are 10 won but there are only 4 won in the warehouse. "
" Why are they not working?"
Wen Ru looked at Zhao Ming hearing her questions and replied, " Others went ho since its afternoon ti and they have children at ho. The other woman has young children, so they have to go back to take care of them. Don't worry, they will co in a while. "
Many won tend to go back in the afternoon because their children are alone at ho. So he has allowed them to go back in the afternoon and co back later.
He is not like his father and runs the Royal Brush on his own rules. This place was much better than others because Wen Ru is very kind-hearted and generous.
Zhao Ming was astounded seeing the working culture of Royal Brush. Brother Wen Ru is too cool.
She has expected a strict working culture like the Palace, but here workers have more freedom than anyone else.
However, this was also the reason that the shop was not doing well. His idea is good but his managing skills are not up to the mark.
Zhao Ming sighed when she realized that Brother Wen is such a softie. He is taking losses for the sake of others.
" Brother Wen, why don't you make a room in the pavilion where their children can play and rest. This way, those won won't need to go anywhere. They can take care of their children and work at the sa ti."
" It will save the ti that they spend going back and forth. They can work comfortably while looking after their children," she suggested that they save ti and this way, they can make more products in the ti which they used to waste before.
Ji Cheng and Wen Ru stopped in their steps when they heard Zhao Ming's words.
Her idea was indeed good. This way those won workers will be able to more efficiently and without worry.
This will save so much of their ti.
" Consort Zhao Ming, have you studied about business before?" Ji Cheng asked her as he was confused about how she can understand the problems and processes of business.
She even managed to catch the swindling done by Yu Kang.
He was wondering if she has learned the business from her father as well.
Because she was already an exception since she has learned dicine from her father.
Normally, the won in Ji Dynasty were taught the household chores from childhood, nor. How to be a filial wife? These were the training that won were given.
But how can she know about business? Even the won from noble families were not allowed to learn about business.
Wen Ru glanced at Zhao Ming with curiosity. He wanted to know how she could give better ideas that never occurred to him.
He has not only learned about business from his master but also goes to nearby countries for trade dealings.
However, this idea never occurred to him.
But Zhao Ming ca out of the palace only today, but her ideas were much more interesting and better.
Zhao Ming was caught off guard when Ji Cheng asked her this question. She pursed her lips and was wondering what excuse she could give him.
Because the idea she gave him was normal for her. In her ti, many offices started to make a playroom for the children of working parents.
Not only won but working but single parents can take care of their children this way.
This way those working won can work without worry about their children and they will work more efficiently in return.
" Ahm… I never learned about business before. It just… I thought that those won must be worried about their children and if their children were in front of their eyes, then they won't be worried."
" I was just..thinking from the perspective of a woman? Yeah. Woman. " Zhao Ming said while thinking of a strong excuse.
She beca confident seeing their expressions when they started to believe her words.
" Oh. " Ji Cheng nodded when he heard Zhao Ming's words.
Ji Cheng didn't say anything like always and nodded his head as he heard Zhao Ming's words.
-_-
Zhao Ming was speechless again because she makes excuses by racking her brain and he gives a single word response.
' Is this fair?'
