Chapter 162: Inaugurated
At the beginning of September, the two-storey round building bookstore in the single ring was completed first.
Song Yushan and Ma Xiaomao went to the bookstore together.
At the mouth of the valley, on the side of the foundation of the round building market, next to Cuiping Mountain, a single-ring three-story round building is located here.
The bluestone foundation and rammed earth exterior wall are exactly the same as the round earth building in her memory.
The round arched gate is made of granite strip stone masonry, with two door panels and a double bolt behind the door.
After entering the gate, there is a large circular plaza with a water well on the left and right.
There are stairs on each side of the building that lead to the upper two floors.
The first and second floors are production workspaces.
The northern half of the first floor is paper-making, and the southern half is printed with books.
The north half of the second floor is woven and the south half is tailored.
The third floor is the accommodation area.
All the production tools and living facilities in the building are made by ghosts.
Song Yushan checked it, and found no other problems except for the yin qi left by the ghost activities in the building.
After leaving the bookstore and locking the door, Song Yushan handed over the key to Ma Xiaomao, and then used his true qi to disperse some of the yin qi on his body.
"Now the doors and windows in the building are open, ventilated and breathable, and after a few days of sunshine, the yin will almost be dissipated, and you can move in when the time comes."
Song Yushan asked Ma Xiaomao: "How did you pick people?" ”
"At the age of ten, twenty-five children who had tested the fairy fate were selected, of which eighteen were girls and seven were boys; Among them were six girls and five boys, beggars on the streets, and these children were either bad-looking or disabled, but they were all good children, and they would not interfere with their work after being taught. Ma Xiaomao said.
Song Yushan nodded: "What about the young man?" ”
The child is bought as a talent reserve, and it must be taught for at least one or two years before it can be used.
The production of the bookstore and the operation of the round house bazaar still need young adults to undertake most of the work for the time being
Ma Xiaomao's face is difficult.
Song Yushan asked him what was going on, and he said:
"Miss, the young man and the embroidery lady are okay, the former picked twenty people, all of whom were under the age of thirty, and the latter picked thirty people, and the embroiderers were good.
It's just that on the other women's side, I had a disagreement with Jing Niang.
On the other side of the Ya Shop, there are twenty girls from the Jinfeng Building, the youngest is twenty-eight years old, the oldest is thirty-nine years old, and you can buy one for eight to ten taels of silver, and the price is more than half cheaper than that of men and children.
Jing Niang wanted to buy these girls, teach them and put them in the Yuanlou Market to manage the store.
I don't think there's something wrong with that. ”
"Why not?" Song Yushan asked rhetorically.
Jinfeng Tower is a place of wind and moon in the county town.
"Not to mention that some of them are older, and they have worked in Jinfeng Tower, although they are lucky and in good health, but for many people, they are familiar faces.
If you put it in the bazaar to manage the store, you are afraid that if you are recognized, it will affect the business of the store and add a lot of trouble.
If they work in the bookstore, they are used to eating and drinking in Jinfeng Tower, and they are afraid that they will not be able to endure the hardship. ”
Ma Xiaomao did not discriminate against these girls, but felt that buying them was not a good choice.
"There is some truth in what you said, so let's ask these girls and say that they want to buy them to do hard work, but they have food and shelter, and they have monthly money, and if they save enough monthly money, they can redeem themselves, and if they are willing to do it, they will buy it, and if they are not willing to do it, forget it."
Song Yushan said: "After I buy it back, I will teach according to Jing Niang's ideas." ”
That is to say, he still wants them to work in the shops in the market, Ma Xiaomao is very worried: "If they are recognized, it will definitely affect the business of the market!" ”
Song Yushan waved his hand: "I know that you are thinking about the interests of the bazaar.
The previous experience of these girls is both a flaw and an advantage, they are definitely more sophisticated than ordinary women, and they are more able to speak, and the key is that they are literate.
The Layue Market is about to open, time is running out, and it is too late to train people who do physical work, and it is too late to cultivate mental work and fine work from scratch.
If these girls teach well, they will be able to get started quickly.
As for their reputation, don't mind.
If there is a problem, it is solved.
How can there be so many best of both worlds?
Besides, it's just some hard-working women, and it is not my choice to enter Jinfeng Tower. ”
Although she built the Yuanlou Bazaar to make money, to make money, to put it bluntly, it was also to provide herself with good deeds and accumulate virtues.
Isn't it accumulating virtue to take in these girls and give them a place to settle down?
What's more, they're not useless.
Ma Xiaomao lowered his head and said: "It's me who is narrow-minded." ”
"In addition to these, the pickers all ask if there are any relatives who are together and can be bought together, and it doesn't matter if they are older, the cleaning of the canteen and public areas in the bookstore also needs manpower.
There are a lot of people who buy it, and you only have one person, so don't bring it all back at once.
Score batches to bring back, bring back, first strict rules.
Those who do not follow the rules and do not repent will return directly to the tooth line.
After the first batch has been accustomed for at least a week, bring the next batch back.
Tell them that it is the monks who buy them, so that they will not have a different heart and cause trouble.
Most of the adults here are going to Yuanlou Bazaar, Ganning Ferry and Fumanzhai, so let Jing Niang, Qiu Niang and Uncle Jin also participate in the training to help you share some of the burden.
When they are not in class, they can also come to the bookstore to help and give a few coppers for their hard-earned money.
……”
Song Yushan told a few things.
Ma Xiaomao is young and has less experience, and he didn't think of some things, but he is very smart, as soon as Song Yushan mentioned it, he understood why, and nodded hurriedly.
Three days later, he brought back a group of people with their families, a total of eighteen people and five households.
They were given the same coarse cloth clothes, and arranged for them to live separately from each house.
Among them, the women temporarily took on the task of cooking in the canteen, and the elderly temporarily took on the task of cleaning the common areas.
During the one-month probationary period, only those who do well can get the corresponding job.
Ma Xiaomao sent them the employee code and told them for a full ten days, and after confirming that they had memorized them, he brought back the next batch of people.
The second batch of girls came from Jinfeng Tower, and the twenty girls were all willing to endure hardships, so they all bought them.
The girls did not live separately, but arranged for them to live in a certain area.
When they came, they didn't tell them that they were going to train them to take care of the store, but they thought they were going to do hard work.
The clothes have also been changed to uniform linen clothes, without powder, and they look no different from ordinary women from good families.
When they came in, like the five families in front of them, they also learned the rules first and memorized the rules of the staff.
These girls are literate and learn faster, and they memorized it in three days.
