Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 38
According to the agreed address, Wang Xiujin arrived with his nephew according to the time. It was neither early nor late, and there was no meal time. They were drinking rough tea. Wang Xiujin and shopkeeper Yu sat at the table without Tai Chi. Wang Xiujin felt that drawing circles was too much Trouble, ask shopkeeper Yu directly if he is satisfied with his current employer, and then drink tea slowly after asking. Since shopkeeper Wu has repeatedly assured that shopkeeper Yu intends to find another employer, then he doesn't have to offer too tempting conditions.
The biggest difference between the ancients and the modern people their predecessors came into contact with is that few executives want to change jobs because of salary, pressure, or health reasons. The biggest reason for wanting to change jobs is mostly distrust.If they feel that it is quite difficult for people trusted by the boss to poach corners, they will work for the boss for the rest of their lives, and even the children they cultivate will continue to work for the boss.There may be such things in modern times, but they are very rare.Because shopkeeper Yu did not trust his boss, although he still tried his best to work, the seeds of leaving had already been planted in his heart.What Wang Xiujin has to do is to confirm whether shopkeeper Yu really wants to leave. If he can find someone, he will give him respect and trust.
Shopkeeper Yu looked at the child who was still much shorter than him after sitting down. He would not question the child's ability. If the other party dared to bring only a child who was slightly older than him, it meant that he was the one who made the decisions. After the shopkeeper Yu left work yesterday, he asked his daughter-in-law to inquire about some news. The Wang family's shop launched crab rice. It is said that the taste of this rice is better than what they used to eat.The rice has not been sold yet, and the shopkeeper Wu of the grocery store has already ordered more than half of it, and the rest is not much except for saving seeds and eating for the Wang family.The ones ordered by shopkeeper Wu are not sold in Wu County, but shipped to the capital.
The rice from Wangcun and several neighboring villages has already been collected by the Wang family, and the price is not higher than his current owner. Everyone sold the rice to the Wang family with the idea of next year's crab field rice. It is said that if the rice needs to be After signing the contract, the harvest can only be sold to the Wang family, otherwise the Wang family will have to pay a hundred times the compensation, and the crab field rice family purchased by the Wang family is really not cheap.This is because the daughter-in-law has someone close to her who lives in a village adjacent to the Wang family, so she asked. Otherwise... where can I find out.
"I just want to ask, when doing things, can someone give directions?" Shopkeeper Yu is concerned about this, he can't let go of his fists to do things, how can he feel comfortable, if someone gives directions, he might as well stay here.
"What is shopkeeper Yu's so-called suggestion? If someone else's opinion is very good, will shopkeeper Yu also reject it?" Wang Xiujin narrowed his eyes, "If someone makes a good suggestion, even if it's just a errand, I will give it to you. Rewarding money, if you are a self-willed person, you will be kicked out immediately."
Shopkeeper Yu froze for a moment, then laughed, very heartily. "Boss, after I quit my job, I will go to find you."
"Okay! I believe shopkeeper Yu will not go back on his promise. In order to avoid trouble, after the shopkeeper resigns, he will go to the capital. The newly harvested rice will be used in the capital. This time it will be through shopkeeper Wu, and it will be up to us in the future. The shop will transport it by itself, and the shopkeeper Yu will find out the way, and relax by the way.” Wu County is such a big place, if Yu came out of the shop before the shopkeeper and went into his house, the owner of Mipu would probably jump out immediately.The shop hadn't opened yet, so Wang Xiujin didn't want to get into trouble first.
"My boss has considered it carefully, I don't know when to leave, so I can make preparations for me." Hearing about sending rice to Beijing, I became more determined in my heart to make a decision.His daughter-in-law's intimacy was an exaggeration, he only believed it to a certain extent, and now the Wang family did not avoid him, and even asked him to follow him. Although they had other intentions, they really trusted him.
"Three days later." After talking about this matter, Wang Xiujin began to discuss the salary issue with shopkeeper Yu. He also asked shopkeeper Wu in detail yesterday. After hearing the monthly money of shopkeeper Wu, Wang Xiujin only felt that the ancient executives It's sad, it's only 15 taels a year, and the average is just over one or two taels a month. Although one tael can be exchanged for thousands of dollars, it's called a shopkeeper!It is equivalent to the manager level of a branch. Throughout the year, that is, during the Chinese New Year, there are three or five days off, and there are no benefits. There are some rewards for doing well, but not too much.At that time, Wang Xiujin asked in surprise, is the monthly payment too little?
Shopkeeper Wu's eyes widened, and he asked him if he was stupid. If one or two save some flowers, it would be enough for the family to live for a year.Wang Xiujin couldn't understand at all, how much more did the ancients think?He also looked very satisfied.Compared with shopkeeper Wu, Wang Xiujin is not easy to give more to the shopkeeper, so it is 15 taels a year, but there are some extra benefits, but he will not give too much, and it will look very eye-catching.
Afterwards, Wang Xiujin took out the deed that he had written before. He had always firmly believed that what he said was unsubstantiated, and it was better to leave written evidence. There were three copies. Put it in the yamen, but the yamen doesn't care about it now, so Wang Xiujin can only release the third order, and wait for a place to supervise it in the future.Before signing, Wang Xiujin asked shopkeeper Yu to read the clauses carefully word by word. The contract of employment is different from that of planting, and there are more rules and regulations. In order to adapt to the thinking concepts of the ancients, Wang Xiujin and his eldest brother discussed for a long time before they came to what they now look like. Pretty good employment contract.
It was the first time shopkeeper Yu had seen an employer's contract. He looked at it as a novelty. The young man had read books, so he didn't need to look for others to read the content of the contract.After reading it word by word, shopkeeper Yu was very surprised. He didn't know who came up with the contract. If it was a child in front of him, then the owner was really extraordinary. Whichever it is, it can indicate that following the owner will definitely not be wrong.Shopkeeper Yu bit his finger and directly stamped his handprint. Wang Xiujin was taken aback by this move. This person is too straightforward!He was so embarrassed that he didn't use his bloody finger.
Having invited a good shopkeeper, Wang Xiujin was relieved. Thinking about it carefully, he was a little rash and did not have too much interview process at all, whether it was out of trust in shopkeeper Wu or his intuition that the person in front of him could be used. , are fatal errors.
Taking Wang Juye away, Wang Xiujin kept reflecting. Now he has completely lost the calmness of his previous life. He beats and crawls, and sweeps with a broom. He doesn't have an absolute goal for management, which is really taboo!
Wang Juye followed behind. Seeing that the little uncle had a bad face, he thought that the shopkeeper had not been persuaded, and was trying his best to search for words that could comfort him.After walking all the way, Wang Juye didn't dare to speak even if he thought of words of comfort. The little uncle's face was really scary, and he was a little scared.To say that Wang Juye is also a solid person, he was often beaten, he was pressed and beaten by his father, and he was not afraid. The little uncle just had no expression on his face, so he felt like trying to escape, why?The clever kid can only scratch his head at this time.
Wang Xiujin thought about it for a long time, and came to the conclusion that if he is a merchant, he should do his best and have the best reputation. Either he will open his shop in every corner like a grocery store, or he will make offerings, special offerings, and only supply them to high-ranking officials. Even the palace.The former may earn a lot, but without a strong backing, it is like a dream, while the latter may earn less, but with the word "special offering", it is like being shackled, protected, waiting for papers, etc. Some of them didn't dare to obstruct them, and there wouldn't be so many difficult things for the little devil.
Comparing the two, you will know how to do it to maximize your benefits, and you don't need too many "specials", just one or two is good, and other things will automatically increase their worth, even if they are the same as other people's things, people will He would think that the things in his shop are better, and if he is unscrupulous, even if he raises the price, people will not say that his things are expensive.
Squinting his eyes, the crab field rice in his hand can become "special", and it is not so easy to make "special". This year will be like this, and next year will be planted on a large scale. Wait, since the first class and the upper class are sent to Beijing, he can't enter Beijing, and some people will not know the good stuff.Medium and low grade listings should fetch high prices as well.In addition to crab field rice, he should come up with another kind, otherwise he will have no advantage if he is imitated.
"My brother is so leisurely, but it's settled?" Wang Xiubo knew that his brother was going to invite the shopkeeper today, so he deliberately came back from the academy to ask how the talk went.When he saw Wang Juye in the yard, he asked, but Wang Juye couldn't hide anything on his face.Seeing this, Wang Xiubai thought it was unsuccessful, so he hurried back to the room, ready to appease his younger brother.Returning to Wu County from the capital city, although my younger brother had some small setbacks in his work, but generally he hadn't failed yet. Now he was rejected by others. I was afraid that he would feel unhappy, but he came in and took a look, how could his younger brother feel unhappy? Although she was a little serious, she didn't look like she was being rejected.
"It's settled. Shopkeeper Yu will follow him to Beijing in three days." Wang Xiujin hurriedly got up when he saw his elder brother coming in. After the elder brother sat down, he retracted into the chair and assumed the posture just now. "Brother, have you thought about what you want to bring?"
"List some book titles, just let shopkeeper Yu come back with the manuscript. I heard from Sister Liu that Xiu Yun should bring a letter to Beijing?" Wang Xiubai disagreed a little. It's better for them to communicate less with the capital now.
"I have read the letter from the elder sister. It is for the embroidery workshop in the capital. I want to buy some patterns. I am afraid that people who come to Beijing don't understand, so I wrote the letter." Wang Xiujin defended the elder sister, "Although the eldest sister is Not good at housework, but not stupid, knowing how to advance and retreat. Now the eldest sister learns from her mother to run the house every day, so there is nothing wrong with it." In the future, they will all go to the city, and the elder sister will take care of all the big and small things in the house, Wang Xiujin is slightly worried.
"I'll make amends when I get out later." After listening to his younger brother's explanation, Wang Xiubo felt that he was exaggerating.
