Chapter 51 Introducing New Employees and Grouping

Yan Mi is a native of Fengcheng, Jiangxi, originally an old boy, like his father in a relatively remote village to be Mr. Enlightenment, poor, because he and his father Yan Zhun is the same list as the county test, so Yan Zhun is familiar with him.

Now that Yan Mi sold his family's real estate because he sold land to bury his father, it was when he had nowhere to live, and his father Yan Zhun saw that Yan Heng said that Wenqu Study needed a bookkeeper who could read and hyphenate, so he introduced this person.

Yan Heng saw that he was honest, so he agreed to take in this Yan Mi, and after meeting him in person, he found that although this Yan Mi was just an ordinary old boy, he had a strong mental arithmetic ability, and his father had also managed accounts in the grain store when he was alive, and he was familiar with the study of mathematics and physics, but it was only now that Confucianism was the first in this era that made him fall to this point.

But this is an unexpected joy for Yan Heng, after all, it is not easy to find a literate and hyphenated person these years, and it is even more difficult to find a person who can have strong computing ability.

Yan Heng gave this Yan Mi a high salary of three taels of silver a month, and taught him a new bookkeeping method, which can basically do it Even if this Yan Mi is powerful, there is no way to cheat, of course, there may be some unnecessary restraints on Yan Mi now, but Yan Heng is difficult to guarantee that after the business scale of Wenqu Study will be larger in the future, this Yan Mi, who now looks honest and honest, will change his mind, seek profit and bend the law.

Wenqu Study not only recruited an additional bookkeeper, but also directly took in a group of more capable printers from the confiscated bookstore, so that the scale of the printing workshop of Wenqu Study has also been further expanded, and the scale of production has also increased.

There were about 30 new printers, twice as many as the first batch of printers.

In other words, there are now 46 employees and one partner, Ouyang Jin.

Within half a year, Ouyang Jin did not have any money because of the gambling contract, and except for Yan Mi, the bookkeeper, the remaining forty-five employees could be regarded as skilled workers in Wenqu Study.

Among them, Xu Deming is not only the general person in charge of the printing workshop but also the chief shopkeeper of Wenqu Study, although he is not even a child, but he also knows how to read, otherwise it is impossible to do proofreading work, and he can also stand alone.

As for Yan Mi, Xu Deming and the others were not unconvinced, after all, Yan Mi was a child and could manage accounts.

However, Yan Heng also added 500 yuan to the first batch of printers in Wenqu Study, and let them separate the gap from the new employees recruited for one or two silver a month, which also gave the old employees a sense of belonging and honor that they came early and had a closer sense of honor with the study.

At the same time, Yan Heng also promised that as long as the new employees perform well and are willing to wait for a long time in the Wenqu Study, the Wenqu Study will regularly adjust their treatment, and the outstanding ones will also have a month of two or three taels or even higher treatment.

In this way, it is better to mobilize the motivation of new employees and make them willing to stay here, after all, it is possible to earn a few taels of silver a month if they continue to work here.

Even if the new employee's salary is only one or two a month, it is already an unexpected surprise compared to their previous one, because before this, many people did not even have the awareness of Yulu.

Ouyang Jin took advantage of the fact that it was not yet the summer grain and autumn tax season to take the one hundred and twenty-two cases of silver given to him by Yan Heng to pull the relationship outside, while Yan Heng was carrying out further reforms to the Wenqu study, adding Mr. Bookkeeper and adjusting the money, Yan Heng and Xu Deming discussed and decided, and the forty-five printers were divided into six groups according to the printing process: typesetting group, typesetting group, proofreading group, brushing group, binding group and research group.

Among them, the research group was specially established by Yan Heng, in order to have special people to study and provide methods for improving the printing process in the future, especially to improve the printing efficiency and printing quality from the aspects of power and materials, after all, if you want to do business and make money, you have to reduce the production cost, and reducing the production cost can only improve the process efficiency.

In addition to the research group, six people were selected as team leaders by Xu Deming's recommendation and Yan Heng's inspection, who were responsible for the production links and tasks of the group to which he belonged, and also had the responsibility of bringing the members of the group to improve the efficiency of this link and improve the technology.

In addition, the compilation of the book collection and the original author of the book is Yan Heng himself, and he is the chief editor, and he also receives a salary of three taels a month, and Yan Mi can sometimes help Yan Heng, Yan Heng also let him receive the title of deputy chief editor, Yan Heng originally wanted his father to also participate in the compilation of this work, but his father looked down on this job because he was a showman, and he now has a wife and forgotten his children, and even the teaching job is lazy, Yan Heng is too lazy to trouble him again.

These days, Yan Heng is teaching early summer literacy, although the entire Wenqu study has been built in the two systems of production and financial management, and Xu Deming is also responsible for the purchase and bulk sale of books to other bookstores, but there is no one to take care of the daily retail of the store.

And in early summer, there is nothing to do at home, unlike Caixiu who has to serve his father and be responsible for the daily food and hygiene of the family and the purchase of daily necessities, and in late autumn he wants to take Xiao Yan Song, Yan Heng asked her to follow her to Wenqu Study to help take care of it.

After all, early summer is now Yan Heng's personal maid, and following Yan Heng is nothing, and Yan Heng took her out and let her dress up as a small girl, so no one said anything gossip because of this, the etiquette of this year has not been strict to the Manchu Dynasty and the early years of the dynasty, and soon a classmate named Wang Yangming will launch a greater impact on Cheng Zhu Lixue, and there are people like Li Zhuowu who challenge the etiquette, so even now in the Chenghua years, some daughters will not really have to dip in the pig cage when they leave the boudoir, What's more, in early summer, Yan Heng, the owner who is qualified to soak her pig cage, brought it out to meet people.

In this way, Wenqu Study has a complete set of processes from the compilation of the book collection to the printing and sale.

Yan Heng now gets up every morning and takes Xiao Yan Song to run in the morning to exercise, then eats breakfast and practices calligraphy, and in the afternoon takes early summer to Wenqu Study to meet Xu Deming and Yan Mi and others, early summer and Xu Deming entertain guests who come into the store to find books to buy, Yan Heng takes time to go to the printing workshop and discuss with the craftsmen how to improve the printing process, and will also think about compiling the next best-selling tutorial with Yan Mi.

Xiao Yan Song has been staying in the house now to recite the Shiwen assigned to him by Yan Heng, and after half a month, he can be regarded as memorizing all the Shiwen that Zhixian Xiong embroidered and writing almost silently.

And now it is the end of February, it has been only five or six days before the start of the county examination, the atmosphere on the street has suddenly become tense, the book sales of Wenqu study have also entered a cold period, and even the people who only look at it in the study are much less, and the latest row of "Compulsory Reading List for the Imperial Examination" on the bookshelf has not been bought for two or three days, but Yan Heng has been out of stock for the convenience of children who are taking the county examination for the first time.

Even some old Confucian children who have participated in many county exams came to buy it.

In addition, the pamphlets compiled by various current texts are also relatively popular, as for what these Confucian children buy to do, Yan Heng naturally doesn't know, and he can't interfere.

Since the county government cracked down on piracy, many booksellers simply only ordered from Wenqu Study, and they didn't bother to compile them themselves, after all, they all wanted to sell more booklets before the end of the county examination to make some money.

Yan Heng asked Xu Deming and others to print the words "Wenqu Study" on the cover of the book published by Wenqu Study as early as the beginning, in order to indicate that this is the book of Wenqu Study, although other booksellers will order it and sell it for Wenqu Study, but still rely on this to declare that this is produced by "Wenqu Study".

In a sense, Wenqu Study is not only a simple bookstore, but also a combination of a publishing house and a bookstore, and whether a book is genuine Wenqu Study is marked by the words "Wenqu Study" and complex color printing marks.
