The monthly work, food, and silver are three dollars, and everyone is like this.

With these three coins of silver, at least a family of three will not starve to death.

It's just that everyone is equal, which makes Lao Yan and some backbone masters a little unhappy.

Why do apprentices take so much?

Although Mei Chenggong was sluggish, he also felt everyone's emotions, and hurriedly read: "The next is the main thing." In addition to the monthly salary, there are also post allowances, post allowances, seniority allowances and bonuses. There are five ranks, the first class is the chief engineer, who is responsible for coordinating the whole company, and there is only one person, Yan Shi, and you have another five taels of silver per month for this position. ”

Old Yantou's eyes almost fell out.

Below the chief engineer is the engineer who can take charge of himself, below the engineer is the assistant engineer, and below is the technician. Below the mechanic is the apprentice of the casual worker.

The chief engineer is five taels per month, the engineer is three taels per month, the assistant is one tael per month, the technician is five taels per month, and the casual apprentice is one dollar per month. A total of five grades of post allowances, similar to the titles of later generations, gave these craftsmen the motivation to climb up.

The post allowance is given to high-risk positions, such as going to the house to frame the beam, these positions are prone to accidents, and it is unusual to give some extra silver to stimulate it.

The seniority allowance is calculated on an annual basis, and if you have been employed for one year, you will add a penny. For five years, two more dollars per year. If the employee has served for 10 years, the seniority salary will be increased by 5 cents per year from the tenth year. Until you have completed 20 years of service, add another tael per year until retirement.

If an apprentice at the age of sixteen works until he retires at the age of sixty, he earns three dollars a month for the first year and three taels or six dollars a year.

In the second year, there is a seniority allowance, and by the fifth year, you can get an extra four dollars.

Five to ten years of service, take an extra one or two.

In ten to twenty years, you can get a total of three taels.

He was thirty-six years old. The annual seniority allowance is 128 yuan, and when you retire, you will have 432 yuan.

In this way, if someone can be an apprentice for the rest of his life without being expelled, then the silver he will receive is two hundred and eleven taels and five yuan.

Now the land price in the Tanghang area has been speculated by 30%, and one acre of good land is only 5 taels and 5 yuan. Working for a lifetime can be exchanged for 38 acres of land, which is already very worthy of the ancestors.

Of course. It is impossible for anyone to work in Xu Yuanzuo's industry all their lives, and they are the lowest-level casual apprentices. He who is able will surely ascend; If you don't have the ability, you will be kicked out in less than three years.

In Xu Yuanzuo's arrangement, the apprentice was promoted to a technician for three years. If the assessment fails, it will be expelled.

Technicians should be promoted to assistant engineers within five years, and those who fail to pass the assessment will be dismissed.

An assistant engineer should be promoted to engineer within eight years, and if he fails to pass the assessment, he will be dismissed.

To the engineers. I barely got into the safe, and I don't have to worry about being fired because of the assessment.

In the end, there is only one chief engineer, and the rarity and authority of this title must be guaranteed.

Of course, these things will not fall on paper for people to know, but they are the secrets that Xu Yuanzuo wrote down in a small book.

Mei Chenggong read out the salary system, and read the examples listed by Xu Yuanzuo, so that these people who have not systematically studied mathematics have an intuitive feeling.

Of course, the apprentices with the lowest positions are happy, they used to have only something to eat, but now they have a monthly meal.

As the old strict head at the top of the pyramid. In the first year, you can get sixty-three taels and six dollars, which is not possible even in the best of the year.

After each of them has calculated their possible positions. There was a look of disbelief on everyone's faces.

Simple people have already begun to think about Xu Yuanzuo: how can you not lose money if you give so much silver just by hand?

Everyone present is aware of the market. They used to be a temporary partnership, and the foreman found a job, and everyone paid according to their duties. It is clear how much silver is used to build a house in the market, and how much silver is to build a bridge. Even if there are highs and lows. The difference is not too far either.

-- The proprietor gave so much silver, even if the work continued, and the labor was removed all year round, there would not be much left.

That's what everybody thinks.

Until someone asked in a trembling voice, "Well, who are the engineers?" ”

"There is a selection criterion for both engineers and assistant engineers. Those who are qualified are evaluated, and those who are not qualified will not be evaluated. Mei Chenggong said: "It will be evaluated by our Zuo Ge'er, Yan Shi, and two outsiders together." ”

Zuo Ge'er is the big boss, Yan Shi is the chief foreman, who is the outsider?

"It's Zhang and Chen." May successfully announced the answer to the mystery.

Everyone will know when they hear it.

They are all people in the industry, and their status is slightly higher than that of Yan Shi. was invited to repair the house together that day, but the big head was taken away by Yan Shi, and I wouldn't be convinced.

There is nothing to say about the craftsmanship of these two people in the industry, they are both masters. However, the master has the temper of the master, Xu Yuanzuo can lower his stature and ask them to help with the evaluation, but he can't endure their stubbornness for a long time, so they are destined to cooperate with each other for a short time, and it is impossible to become long-term partners.

Chief Engineer Yan knew these two people, and he also knew that the old craftsman would never play tricks in his craft. If he says the good is bad, and the bad is good, as long as he dares to mess around like this today, he will have to suffer the punishment of the ancestor tomorrow!

In this era when you have to make incense offerings to your ancestors every day, there are really gods and spirits!

Although Xu Yuanzuo didn't give them the work of the main project, there were still sporadic small jobs.

Masters Zhang and Chen also have apprentices and apprentices, and how much work they can earn is better than starving. This time, Xu Yuanzuo alone sealed five taels of silver, as a bride price, they were naturally happy.

"But Xu Xianggong, you are so generous, I'm afraid it's really hard to make money." Master Zhang has always been arrogant, if it weren't for Xu Yuanzuo's status as a student, he wouldn't even bother to talk to this little kid.

"It's not all about making money." Xu Yuanzuo said this, but he secretly said in his heart: Those of you who don't even know about government procurement, you can only play with the grass platform.

"Don't make money to feed so many people?" Master Chen on the side was short-tempered and spoke in a stiff tone.

Xu Yuanzuo knew that he didn't have bad intentions, he was just rude, and he didn't care, and of course he couldn't explain it, so he said casually: "As it is said in the book of the sage, men have a division and women have a home, which is the cornerstone of the world of Datong." Our Xu family provides some jobs, so that the men in the village have a job to support their families, which is just practicing the way of the saints. ”

This is a high-sounding statement, and it is the truth wherever it is placed.

Even the editorial on the front page of "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tales" is based on this tone.

On the eighth day of June in the third year of Longqing, the fifth issue of "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tan" ran 3,000 copies, reaching the limit of paper and ink. In other words, in the land of Songjiang, it is impossible to mobilize enough standard paper and ink in a short period of time.

The silver is naturally from the Xu family.

Xu Jie is now engaged in cultural undertakings, and more and more scholars are aware of the plan of "Ancient Training". This is of great benefit to Xu Jie's rise in prestige in the academic field. At the same time, Xu Jie also needs some good deeds to benefit Xiangzi, which is walking on two legs and cannot be wasted.

Xu Yuanzuo directly reported the matter of the construction company, and put forward a new concept of "employment" on the basis of cash-for-work, which opened up a new field for the gentry to benefit the township. (To be continued......)
