Chapter 793: After Laba Is the New Year
Seeing this, Lin Ruohan's wet nurse finally had a heart in her stomach. She was really afraid that her own girl was pregnant with a girl and would not be welcomed by her husband's family. From this point of view, the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion did not pay much attention to male grandchildren, but it had such an extraordinary love for female dolls.
Thinking about it carefully, it is not uncommon for the six sons of the Duke of Zhen to have male heirs. On the contrary, there is only one girl, Miss Ye Er, who is favored by the Duke and his wife as a baby. It seems that even if her own girl gives birth to a baby girl, she will not be slowed down.
Lin Ruohan's wife came back suddenly, and the yard was not fully prepared. Junshi wanted to leave her eldest daughter-in-law in her yard for a night, but her daughter-in-law cut her off: "Dad is in the mansion today, and my eldest sister-in-law lives in your yard. It's inconvenient, a lot of rooms in my place are empty, sister-in-law, you can sleep with me tonight!"
Jun Shi was worried: "What if you don't sleep honestly and kick your sister-in-law's stomach?"
Gu Ye pouted and said: "I let my sister-in-law sleep on my bed, and I sleep softly, isn't it? Mother, my nephew hasn't been born yet, and your heart is biased to the navel. After birth, do you still have a place for me in your heart?"
Jun Shi tapped her forehead with his finger: "You! You must have been soaked in a vinegar jar in your past life, otherwise why would your body smell sour?"
"Mother, you are wrong. I was a lemon essence in my last life, so I like to drink sour water. You are used to this problem!" Gu Ye smiled and pulled Lin Ruohan towards the Pearl Pavilion next door.
To say that this is the most comfortable place in the Duke's Mansion, the Pearl Pavilion is the most comfortable place. The room was as warm as spring, and although there was no incense, it exuded a faint floral and fruity fragrance.
Seeing that Gu Ye really wanted to sleep on the soft couch, Lin Ruohan hurriedly stopped him: "Your bed is quite wide, enough for both of us to sleep in. Don't worry, I sleep well."
"I'm not at ease with myself! I often sleep with my head facing east, and when I wake up, I just lost my head and changed my head to west. They all have to get up and cover me several times during the night. , they were all kicked under the bed by me. I'm afraid I'll be dishonest when I fall asleep and kick my little nephew, but what should I do?" Gu Ye smiled embarrassedly.
"Then I can't occupy the bed, and who is the soft couch who wronged you!" Isn't this a dove occupying a magpie's nest?
Gu Ye patted the quilt on the soft couch and said, "It's okay, I'm thin and small, and the soft couch is almost like a small bed to me. Besides, there is a thick carpet underneath, so it doesn't hurt to fall down. …”
After speaking, she wrapped the quilt and lay down on the soft couch. In order to confirm his own words, he still rolled around on the couch. What else did Lin Ruohan say, the little girl was already lying on the couch, pretending to sleep with her snoring.
The nanny waited on her girl to sleep, and her heart was full of relief. When he was in Yancheng, although the uncle was a military general, he was gentle and considerate, and he knew the cold and the heat. Yancheng's foreign family also took good care of the girl. Not to mention the kindness of Mrs. Zhenguo's wife, and the kindness of her sister-in-law... The girl married into the manor of Mrs. Zhenguo, she is considered to be married to the right person!
If this child can be a boy in one fell swoop, the girl's position in the government of the town will be more stable. Although Mrs. Zhenguo said that she likes girls, but in the nurse's heart, she still hopes that her girl will have a boy, so that she can stand firm!
After Laba is the New Year! After drinking Laba porridge, the footsteps of the Chinese New Year are approaching day by day. The pharmaceutical factory and the daily chemical factory were on holiday one after another, and Gu Ye, the shopkeeper, finally appeared in front of the employees at the end of the year.
Daily chemical factories and pharmaceutical factories have achieved excellent results in the past six months. Whether it is medicines or skin care products, the sales volume is very impressive. Gu Ye flipped through the ledger and found that in less than a year, the pharmaceutical factory had made nearly 200,000 taels of profit, and the daily chemical factory had nearly 100,000 taels. Gu Ye instantly felt that he had become a little rich woman from a state of extreme poverty. This taste, let alone how beautiful it is!
Gu Ye took out a small part of it and distributed year-end bonuses to the employees of the two factories. And announced that every year in the future, half of the benefits will be taken out and bonuses will be given to employees. In other words, the better the efficiency of the factory, the higher the bonus for employees.
Take pharmaceutical factories, for example, half of the profits this year are more than 10,000 taels. The pharmaceutical factory has more than 600 ordinary employees and dozens of management personnel. If it is divided, the least ordinary employees will receive seventy or eighty-two year-end bonuses.
Not to mention those employees who work overtime, work hard, and contribute outstandingly. The year-end bonus is distributed, and there are not a few people who get more than 100 taels. Worth their salary for almost a year!
The staff are just crazy! In a pharmaceutical factory, the most common employee also earns 5 taels a month, plus year-end bonuses. After working for eight or nine months this year, they earn more than 100 taels. Most of the employees of the pharmaceutical factory came from poor backgrounds, and such "big money" is something he (she) would not dare to imagine!
Originally, after Laba, the two factories were on holiday one after another. As soon as they saw other employees who worked a lot of overtime with such a high year-end bonus, many people immediately expressed their willingness to work overtime year after year. Especially those who live near the capital, said that they can work overtime in the pharmaceutical factory except for the 30th and the first day of the new year.
A few families in Yancheng simply don’t go home for the Chinese New Year, so they can take advantage of the New Year to work overtime to earn more money and bring it back to their families! As a result, the owner of the pharmaceutical factory, who originally wanted to give employees a holiday and let them go home for a good year, was asked by the employees to continue working.
With such enthusiasm and awareness, Gu Ye, the boss, will naturally not treat them badly. Immediately, the decision was made. Anyone who voluntarily stayed to work overtime would be paid three times the salary for the holidays.
As soon as this decision was made, more people stayed and worked overtime. Moreover, overtime pay is settled on a daily basis, and the road is a little longer. If you want to go home for the Chinese New Year, you can work a few days less overtime. In this way, the overtime pay for the New Year alone is enough to pull some clothes for the family, buy a few pounds of meat, and catch a few chickens, and the family can have a fat New Year!
As soon as the year-end meeting was over, everyone went back to work with full enthusiasm. Innocently, Gu Ye shrugged at Gu Li'er and Li Xiu'er's subordinates, "Look, it's not me who is ripping off the skin and not giving employees a holiday, they are willing to stay and work overtime."
"The overtime pay you gave is so high that no one would be willing to pay more than ten or twenty taels of silver this month. You must know that even an ordinary farm family near the capital may not have a year's income in our factory. A month's overtime pays well."
Gu Lier thinks that the boss of Gu Ye is too generous, and it is a bonus for half of the profit and three times the overtime pay. Encountering such an owner is a blessing that the employees of the two factories have built over their lifetimes.
"What? You feel bad for me? Then take out your year-end bonus, please give everyone a meal! Go to Qingfeng Building, I will order the table and you will pay for it!" Gu Ye thought about it, and the two factories suddenly sent it The bonus of more than 10,000 taels of silver was a pain in the ass.
Of course, the one with the most year-end awards is Yinmang, the chief steward. He also changed back to his original name at this time - Zhou Jiahe, officially leaving the Hidden Soul Hall and becoming a general under Gu Ye. On behalf of Gu Ye, he successfully pryed away a corner of the wall from her brother Chen's hands.
Zhou Daguan won nearly a thousand taels of year-end bonus without adding his usual wages. Gu Li'er and Li Xiu'er also received bonuses ranging from three hundred and five hundred, far exceeding their wages. In a few years, these small butlers can buy property in Beijing!
Gu Li'er rolled her eyes at Gu Yefei and said, "It's okay to invite you to dinner, but Qingfeng Building will be exempted. I'm afraid that my bonus, plus one year's salary, together may not be able to work in Qingfeng. Please have a meal in the building!"
Gu Ye hooked her shoulders and laughed slyly: "It's okay, I know the shopkeeper of Qingfeng Building, and I can give you a 20% discount!"
Gu Li'er made the calculations, shook her head and said, "I can't afford that. I heard that the special dishes of Qingfeng House can easily cost a hundred taels of silver. After a meal, it will cost you a thousand and eight hundred. A 20% discount is also It costs seven or eight hundred. One year’s wages for a meal plus a year-end bonus, why are you asking me to treat me, eating my flesh and drinking my blood?”
Gu Ye said: "Sister Li'er, don't worry. We only pick up cheap dishes, a few taels of silver, and dishes for a dozen taels of silver. Qingfeng Building also has dishes. After a meal, we can guarantee that it will not exceed one hundred taels, isn't it? ?"
Li Xiu'er pouted and said, "Forget it, entering a place like Qingfeng Building, ordering shabby dishes and being looked down upon by others, it's better to pick a small restaurant, open it up, and eat more happily."
"Don't...you guys don't want to feel the taste of dining in a top-class hotel in the capital?" Gu Ye was still trying his best to agitate.
"How big are the feet and how big are the shoes you wear. Three years ago, let alone going to a restaurant, we even had an extravagant hope of having a full meal. With two coins in our hands, we all felt that we were rich. Ben He was born in poverty, why should he compare himself with those wealthy lords in the capital? One meal will eat up all the ordinary people's chewing for several years!" Gu Li'er pinched the banknotes in her purse, feeling extremely at ease.
After a few years, when she had enough money, she bought a yard in the capital and took over the whole family. By then, the younger brothers will all grow up and work in pharmaceutical factories or daily chemical factories, and these days will definitely become more and more prosperous!
"Let's go! Please go to the restaurant. I know that there is a small restaurant in Beijing. The taste is not bad and the food is affordable. The owner and the proprietress are also neat, and the restaurant is quite clean."
That small restaurant was taken by Li Hao last time. That guy has only been in the capital for less than a year, and he knows the capital well. It is estimated that the net is wandering around the city during the holidays.
"Hey! I'm listening from a distance, someone said please have dinner. Take me with you!" Just thinking of Li Hao, the guy with long ears came over.
Li Xiu'er said happily: "Sister Li'er, it's done now, someone who pays the bill is here. The mother-in-law treats the guest, and the man pays the bill, it is only right and proper!"
Li Hao listened, reached out and knocked on her head, and said, "Xiu'er, who are you with? Joining others, you're here to trick your own brother. Is there someone who turns your elbows out like you?"
