Chapter 361: New factory opened
Over the next few days, Master Mo and a few apprentices in carpentry worked overtime to make small stools and chairs for the embroidery factory.
Ma Dali went out to shop around to buy fabrics during the day, and would also help make small stools at night.
Chen Xingling arranged some basic measures for the factory, such as adding some electric lights, buying a kettle, etc., and helping to prepare some daily necessities and utensils for the fourth brother and sister-in-law.
Several brothers have learned motorcycles one after another, and she has also learned seven, seven, eight, eight.
Someone helped pick up and drop off, and Zhu Siya finally happily agreed to come down and go into the city to help take care of the new factory.
The various generous small subsidies of the embroidery factory were passed out one after another, and they were soon known by the various "teams" of the embroidery team, which instantly stirred up thousands of waves in their calm circle!
Soon, they came to the east of the city to visit the embroidery factory.
The factory has been opened in advance, Chen Xingling and Zhu Siya sit in front of the gate, every time an embroidery lady comes, they will take them to visit inside and outside, and actively promote the embroidery factory of various generous small allowances.
The embroiderers looked at the bright factory, the brand-new wooden stools and chairs, and all kinds of brand-new tools, and they were all tempted.
After the visit, some people took the initiative to leave their names and addresses, and asked with a smile when they would be able to start work.
Chen Xingling hurriedly replied: "I can come to work next Monday, the fabrics have been bought, and I only need proofing to start work immediately." In addition, there will be two teachers on our side during the day to teach and impart experience, and interested colleagues can come to exchange experiences. ”
Under the leadership of Ma March, she visited three experienced old embroiderers.
Two of them, both in their fifties, agreed to come and help. The reason is not complicated - just because there is a regular working environment in the factory and a guaranteed minimum salary of 30 yuan a month.
Thirty yuan is a fixed salary, which means that even if they don't have to work, they can earn thirty yuan just by teaching the younger generations. If you use your leisure time to do more embroidery, you can also receive money by piece like everyone else.
No matter how you calculate it, they are sure to make a lot of money, and they must make a lot of money!
Only another old embroiderer said that she could not come to help for the time being, because her daughter-in-law was going to give birth to three children next month, and she had to stay at home to take care of her daughter-in-law's confinement.
However, she said that she would be available at the end of the year or the beginning of next year, and asked if she could take a break.
Chen Xingling agreed, saying that the door of the embroidery factory would always be open for her, and she was welcome to come over at any time. As long as she comes, everything promised before will come true.
When the embroiderers heard this, they were overjoyed!
Someone rushed to explain: "Not all masters are willing to teach us...... Some old embroiderers hide their skills, for fear that we will rob them of their jobs! ”
"Yes, yes! Sometimes we don't even want to watch it! ”
"Are you really willing to teach? You won't just teach the most ordinary ones, right? Ordinary ones will too! ”
Chen Xingling is willing to answer for them: "They receive our master's salary every month, and they must be taught to each other - that is, no matter what you ask, as long as they know the embroidery skills, they will answer and teach you for you." ”
When she and March went to ask for the master, she inquired about the master's temper in advance. If it's the kind of master who doesn't usually like to interact with people, then rule it out in advance.
Because the master needs to sit in the factory during the day and needs to solve doubts and demonstrate for everyone, he tries to find something that is approachable and easy to get along with.
An embroiderer exclaimed, "Wow! There is also a master's salary! How much in a month? What kind of master is it? ”
Chen Xingling replied: "If you can practice all the skills of our Yu School embroidery, and you are very, very skilled, you can become our master." The master has a fixed salary of 30 yuan a month, and the annual allowance is twice that of the employee. They go to work every day to guide the younger generations, and continue to embroider when they have time, and the salary is the same as yours. ”
"That's great! You can get paid every month! ”
"The subsidy is doubled!"
Some embroiderers asked curiously: "Then if you don't have any work to do, will they not be able to receive their wages?" ”
"No, it won't." Chen Xingling explained: "Our factory will continue to produce for several years, except for the New Year's holiday, there is work to do at other times. ”
A young embroiderer exclaimed, "Wow! There can be a holiday during the New Year's Festival! I like this, and I'm most afraid of having to work for the first 365 days a year! ”
Zhu Siya nodded again and again: "Yes, we will have holidays on traditional festivals and New Year's holidays." Rice oil subsidies will be issued on major festivals, and there will be a day or half a day off on small festivals. ”
"That's good."
"They are embroidery factories, not small dealers who buy them. Big places just don't change. Wait a minute! You don't all have to pay monthly, do you? Is it the same as other factories that pay wages? ”
Chen Xingling hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, you can deliver the goods with one hand and pay the money with the other, whether it is a master or an ordinary employee." ”
The embroiderers were finally relieved, reported their names successively, and promised to come to work next week.
"I still have some unfinished work on hand, so I'll come over when I'm done. You don't have to bring anything, do you? ”
Chen Xingling replied: "Just bring a cup, there are a few thermos flasks here that have hot water supply at any time." You don't need to bring anything else. ”
After the embroiderers consulted and visited, they left one after another.
After a few days of coming and going, the embroidery factory is finally open!
The firecrackers crackled and exploded for more than a minute, and everyone pushed open the door with joy.
"Welcome the God of Wealth to the God of Wealth!"
"Abundant wealth!"
"Wealth in all directions!"
"Wealth from all over the world!"
……
Chen Xingling took out a few large bags of candy and asked his brother and sister-in-law to distribute them to the neighbors who came to see the excitement, as well as to the children passing by, and the rest to the two masters and more than a dozen embroiderers who came to work today.
That afternoon, a few young embroiderers came, all of whom were good sisters of March Sifang, saying that they wanted to learn skills and make money.
Ma March and Sifang had to go to class during the day, and they could only do embroidery after school or at night, so they only took the simplest handkerchief patterns back.
Ma Dali told with a calm face: "Don't stay up late at night, the lights need to be bright." Also, you have to do all the homework before you can do it. ”
"Got it." Ma Yue and Sifang obediently agreed, and turned around to find Chen Xingling.
Chen Xingling gave each of them a handful of candies, and took out a few for Ma March.
"These are for Sister Lin's daughter Xiaojing."
Listening to Ma Dali, since Erli went to school, the widowed sister-in-law didn't go to find Erli much, because Erli went out early and returned late every day, and she had to catch up with homework at night, so she didn't have time to take care of her.
Ma Erli would send rice and grain every few days, and occasionally give her some money.
Xiao Jing, the widow's daughter-in-law, is more than a year old, and from time to time she will go to Ma Erli's house to find March and Sifang, because she likes the two big sisters very much.
Ma March nodded and took it, and pouted instead.
"My little sister and I haven't been there much lately, so we don't have to see some unclean things."
Chen Xingling raised his eyebrows suspiciously and asked, "What?" ”
Ma March stepped forward and lowered her voice: "Sister, that Sister Lin doesn't abide by women's morals, and likes to hook up all day long." Lately, there have been a few slackers walking around her doorway. My eldest brother told us not to go that way or to talk nonsense. Occasionally, Jing would come to us, and we would give her something to eat and play with. Recently, the second brother didn't send rice and vegetables, and Xiao Jing came to pick them up. She was so strong that she could carry a small basket of things. ”
"Uh-oh." Chen Xingling couldn't comment on anything, so he could only nod perfunctorily.
This is someone else's private matter, and she can't talk about it.
Lin is only a woman in her early twenties, her husband is gone, and even if there are people around him to rely on, she still has to think more about her life.
She is also for herself and her daughter, and it is her right to pursue her own life. After all, she is still so young, and it is too cruel for her to be widowed for most of her life for a dead person.
In this way, Ma Dali doesn't have to worry that the other party will continue to pester his younger brother, and he can breathe a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, Ma Dali was still sullen.
"You don't know I've been having a hard time lately! I didn't dare to go home and live...... It's true! ”
Chen Xingling couldn't figure out what was going on, and asked, "What?" Are you being targeted too? ”
"Go, go!" Ma Dali scolded with a smile: "Can't you hope that I will be better?" I didn't dare to walk on the village road recently, so as not to be seen by my clan relatives and uncles, and I was caught and blamed! ”
Chen Xingling quickly figured out what was going on and asked, "They asked you to drive away Widow Lin's sister-in-law, right?" Isn't it? ”
"Alas......" Ma Dali was a little embarrassed, and whispered: "There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door." She is the kind of person who likes to provoke right and wrong, and she talks to a few men in the village all day long. Uncle Zongqin was very angry and scolded my brother for getting such a woman to come to the village. ”
