Lei Da laughed: "After all, the son will not lie to me, Lei Da is is." ”

Banniang said: "Having said that, since I plan to invite you, I have to explain the remuneration to you, and you can go back to make it clear to your wife." The monthly money of 20 yuan per month is the same as the chief steward in my carpentry workshop, and at the end of the year, I will give you dividends depending on the profits in my workshop. How much you can take depends on your ability. The dividends of the chief steward in my carpentry workshop are three out of 100, and if you are skilled and dedicated, I may give you two dividends. I will arrange food and housing, but since you have brought your wife and want to have your own lady take care of your own food, I will subsidize your monthly food money. What do you think? ”

Twenty times a month is not low, he went to sea for a year, the profits are just like that, and in the workshop to do things, the wind is not rainy, and there is no need to gamble with life, in theory, it is much stronger than going to sea, the most important thing, you can also bring your own mother-in-law, and there is a dividend at the end of the year, this workshop can afford to open twenty times a month, which means that the dividend will not be less than a year's monthly money. If he is alone, he prefers the exciting life of fighting to the death in the wind and waves at sea, but with a lady, it is different.

"Cheng, Gongzi really didn't lie to me, this income, if you talk about work, who can compare with me?"

"Wait, I have the conditions." Banniang smiled.

Lei Da waved his big hand like a fan, and hummed, "Childe has something to say." As long as it doesn't cost me my life, with this salary, it's all negotiable. ”

"Okay," Banniang clapped her hands and smiled, "I just like your refreshment." My request is very simple, I now have a group of carpentry workshops specializing in carving, but I am not satisfied with the craft, so I want you to use three years to bring me at least twenty apprentices who can become masters, these people, I will have other uses in the future. But you don't have to worry, in my place, if you don't have an apprentice, you will throw away the master's thing, as long as you work hard, your income will only rise, not fall, and every time you bring out an apprentice who can meet my requirements, I will reward you with fifty yuan. ”

This carving seal is no better than others, what is required is a talent, and hard practice, three years out of the teacher, it is too difficult. Lei Da was a little puzzled: "Twenty apprentices who can become teachers? It's a bit difficult. ”

"If it is not difficult, why do I need to look for you, why do I need to pay you twenty people and one thousand yuan? Your thousand guan, like the gentleman's bundle repair, have you ever heard of which gentleman can pay a thousand bundles of wood repair? Besides, I'll promise you a little bit, and you can pick and choose all the apprentices. If you're not satisfied, look for it from outside. And there are some basic ones, and it is not difficult for you to teach them. How? You don't even have that confidence? ”

When Lei Da heard this, he was not convinced, but he was aroused by the pride in his heart, and thought that as long as people let themselves choose, and there are still some foundations, it may not be successful. Besides, with twenty apprentices and a thousand entries, is there any master in the world who is more beautiful than himself? Then he said ruthlessly: "Cheng." So I made this military order. If you can't bring a decent apprentice, I'll let you punish me. ”

"I'll return in about ten days, you and your lady will take advantage of these days, and you will clean up and return with me when the time comes, no problem, right?"

Lei Da has a total of some family funds, and the money is loaded on his body, and the door of the house is locked, and it is done. There is no problem with self-preaching.

Banniang sent him away.

waited for someone to leave, and then said: "It's really a real person who doesn't show his face, this thunder is big, but it's a little interesting." ”

Lin Zhaoqing said with a smile: "If I hadn't seen him carve things and only looked at people, I wouldn't believe that those lifelike and delicate things would have been carved by people like him." No, although this thunder seems to be reckless, he is actually a person who is thick and fine, and he is extremely righteous, if he can really convince him, he is a good helper. ”

Because what the two of them should have said, they were almost said yesterday, Banniang simply asked Cang'er to accompany her, and together with Lin Zhaoqing, she continued to sweep the streets.

This time it was a big purchase, only to buy things are very complicated, there are overseas muslin, glazed ware, jewelry, tin and other things, the result is a settlement, the price is surprisingly low, Banniang Qi said: "Store, what's going on?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Childe said that you are laughing, you came with our chief steward, how can you charge it at the regular price?" These are basically the cost prices for you. ”

I see.

Banniang glanced at Lin Zhaoqing: "Yes, I owe you a lot of favors." Why didn't you say it earlier? ”

As I said earlier, she may not be so happy when she buys things, and she can't pick them up so carefully. Lin Zhaoqing smiled silently.

Banniang paid the price the shopkeeper said. There was no need for Lin Zhaoqing to explain, the shopkeeper took the initiative to say that he would deliver the goods in the afternoon.

Lin Zhaoqing said: "Send it directly to the trading house." ”

After another day of shopping, Lin Zhaoqing also wondered, I don't know what she was doing when she opened a woodware shop.

After Banniang solved her confusion, it suddenly dawned on her that some of them were kept for their families or as gifts in the future, and others, if they were not kept for tie-in sales in their own shops, they were kept for addition, and she wanted to open a new restaurant, and it happened that there was decoration in her own restaurant.

Her restaurant, Lin Zhaoqing also heard Steward Lin say that she has been traveling south and north for many years, and she has never seen a more gorgeous, unique, and better meal than her restaurant.

Lin Zhaoqing said that he wanted to go one day to see what the restaurant she opened and her woodware shop were like.

The more I know about her, the more curious Lin Zhaoqing becomes, this seems to be simple, has unique insights when it comes to things, and acts vigorously and resolutely, it can almost be said that she is bold and vain, and she laughs harmlessly and innocently, what kind of person is she?

After two or three days like this, even porcelain Lingluo and other things were purchased, but the fleet of Yongxing Commercial Bank still did not even have a shadow, and the other fleets did not return. At this moment, not only Banniang was anxious, but also the merchants who came to guard the goods from all over the city were also discussing, and on the fifth day, it was Lin Zhaoqing, who frowned.

After dinner that day, the two were talking in Lin Zhaoqing's conference hall, Lin Zhaoqing thought for a while, but decided to speak, and said with a solemn face: "Eighth brother, if something really happens to the caravan, your 10,000 yuan, I'm afraid it's ......."

is to lose the 10,000 yuan, and now Banniang can afford it, although it is hard-earned money, flesh pain is inevitable, but this is not the point of the problem.

The point is that if Yongxing Commercial Bank's fleet cannot return, her timber supply will be seriously affected. Although it is possible to purchase other timber from Quanzhou and other timber shops as before last year, there is no supply and it has always been constrained. If someone gets stuck on the wood raw materials one day, then her entire wood industry chain will be affected, and the cost is greatly beyond her budget, and if she buys from others, she has to let others compete for money.

It also involves a series of issues such as the development planning progress, price strategy, and so on of her entire carpentry business.

But the matter has come to this point, and it is not something that can be changed and controlled by manpower.

But there is only one word for today's plan: wait.

Going to sea is inherently risky, not to mention this person's era, it is the era of highly developed scientific and technological civilization in her previous life, and she was as blind as she was caught when the wind exploded in Shanghai.

Banniang said: "Doing business, where there is no risk." I can afford this loss. It's just that the raw materials of wood are especially important to me, and they can't be compared to the loss of 10,000 yuan......" As she spoke, Banniang smiled bitterly, "Wait." There's no definite news, so I'll wait here until there is definite news. ”

In fact, in addition to Yongxing, there are other caravans, although the time of everyone's return is not consistent, but at this time in previous years, all the fleets that went to sea should basically have returned to the time of return, from the deduction to the return to the present, there are also five or six days, the fleet has not returned to the Xingxing is delayed, but there is not even a fight back to deliver the letter, it is indeed very abnormal.

And one of the fleets has some shares of Qingrui Commercial Bank, so if something really goes wrong, for Lin Zhaoqing, it is not only the supply of goods before and next year, but also the loss of investment in the sea fleet, so that the assets he has accumulated in the past few years will be lost at least half.

Lin Zhaoqing also smiled bitterly: "I really can only wait." I'll send someone to Yongxing early tomorrow morning to find out the situation and contact a few other firms. ”

After thinking for a while, he said: "Eighth brother might as well prepare with both hands, if there is really a problem with the goods of the fleet in Yongxing, your timber must be prepared early, why don't you ask Liu Erlang to follow the steward of my side tomorrow, and then go to the timber shop where you ordered timber before, how about ordering some goods first?" ”

Banniang also felt that it was so safe. Then he said, "I'll go with me." ”
