Chapter 621 Scolding (1)
Long Shiyu's words made everyone present who came to cause trouble look at each other, and then someone finally spoke.
"Boss, how could you do this? Why are you only giving 500 wen? Shouldn't Wang Guoer get 100 taels? ... Why don't you give my family 100 taels as well?"
"Yes, yes! They all went in together, so why is Wang Guoer an exception? You have to give us an explanation."
"They only get 500 wen as wages, but Wang Guoer gets 10 taels? How much is 500 wen a year? 500 wen a year is only 6 taels of silver, but Wang Guoer gets 120 taels a year. Is that appropriate?"
"You must give us an explanation today, or we will quit!"
"That's it."
"We must be given an explanation."
"Then you can take the person back, I can save even 500." After hearing what they said, Ji Xiaowu laughed. "I think 500 is too much. How much is a handkerchief out there? They can't even earn me 500 in a day, but you are so greedy that you ask me for 10 taels."
"It's only been a few days since you started learning. You haven't even finished learning the skills yet, but you're already so high-spirited? What's the matter? Do you think your daughter can embroider at the level of ten taels now?"
Ji Xiaomu's words were completely disrespectful. There was no need to beat around the bush when dealing with these people. Just confront them directly and they'll be done.
Many people were shocked by Ji Xiaomu's words. Then they thought that embroidery was a delicate job, and a handkerchief could be bought at a maximum of twenty yuan outside, so they couldn't embroider ten in a day.
"But... but five hundred coins is too little!" Someone still insisted. "No matter what, after you learn it, you should have two taels of silver!"
"You mentioned two taels of silver. I have no problem with that, but they do." Aunt Ji said calmly.
"What problem could there be for girls?" asked the lady.
"Two taels of silver a month, I have to pay them sixty taels of silver a month, do you know how much that is?" Ji Xiaowu raised her eyebrows. "Can you guarantee that they can rest well? Can they embroider well and feel at ease? Can the goods they hand over be sold at a good price?"
"Why not! It's just embroidering a few flowers!" A man disagreed, but the ladies looked at each other in bewilderment. They all knew a little bit and knew how much effort embroidery took.
None of them could guarantee that they could embroider ten handkerchiefs a day.
"Mr. Wang, stop bragging. I don't even dare to say that I can embroider ten in a day!" said the old lady to the man.
When they heard that Ji Xiaowu was spending sixty taels every month, they were frightened. "Your daughters don't have any basic skills at all. I've spent so much time on them to learn how to embroider handkerchiefs. You don't care about the cost I put in, right?"
"Boss, this, this, this... We are not here to cause trouble on purpose. It's just that Wang Guoer can sign a contract and get a hundred taels, so why can't we? Wang Guoer must not have learned much, right?" asked an old lady.
He didn't dare to throw a tantrum in front of Ji Xiaomu, who raised her eyebrows and replied.
"Because Wang Guoer was almost driven to death! As the boss, I couldn't watch her die, so I broke up. How could she do the same? The wages she gets are not much different from your daughter's, but do you know how long Wang Guoer spends embroidering every day? How hard she works?"
