 Chapter 213: Benefits and Commission

Shu Yu affirmed once again, and Ah Xiang couldn't help but lift the corners of her mouth, finding it difficult to contain her excitement. Shu Yu smiled and said, "Shall I introduce our shop to Aunt Xiang first?" Ah Xiang immediately sat up straight and said, "Sure." "Our clothing store is called Yiren Pavilion, mainly focusing on women's clothing. Moreover, we cater to the women from wealthy families, so there is a higher demand for tailored garments. The fabric used for the clothes is also of good quality, so extra care is needed during the tailoring process." Ah Xiang looked down at her hands and asked, "What about my hands...?" "No worries, I have hand cream there. Just take good care of them for a few days, and it won't be a big problem." Ah Xiang nodded without any objections. Shu Yu continued, "Furthermore, the workshop is located in the county. I have already rented a courtyard specifically for clothing production, and you can also live there." Ever since deciding to hire people, Shu Yu had been searching for a suitable courtyard. It wasn't difficult to find such a place, and it happened to be in Liufang Lane, not far from the courtyard they rented. Currently, the stall wasn't very big, but once the business grew and expanded, she planned to build another workshop. Ah Xiang paused for a moment after hearing this and turned to look at her daughter, "Living in the county?" Fu Xiang Di quickly said, "Mother, I'll be fine on my own." Shu Yu raised her hand to interrupt their conversation, "Of course, Xiangdi can also go together. I've been paying attention to her as well, and I also want to hire her. Putting everything else aside, Xiang Di's cutting skills are neat and fast, very skillful, just like her personality." Fu Xiang Di's eyes instantly brightened, "Really? Can I come too?" "Yes, but your salary will definitely be a bit less." "No problem, as long as I have food and a place to stay, I don't need a salary." Shu Yu chuckled, "That won't do. Let's talk about the salary issue for now. Aunt Ah Xiang's salary will consist of a basic salary plus commission, while Xiang Di will only receive a basic salary." "What does 'basic salary plus commission bonus' mean?" Ah Xiang and her daughter heard this term for the first time, and both had puzzled expressions. Shu Yu explained, "The basic salary is a fixed monthly amount of 500 wen, the same for both you and Xiang Di. The commission bonus is additional pay based on the clothes you sell. For example, if a piece of clothing is sold for one tael of silver, Auntie Ah Xiang will receive an extra 50 wen as a reward. If it's two taels, then it's 100 wen, and so on, with no upper limit." Initially, Shu Yu thought that they would receive a commission for each item of clothing they made. But then she realized that some clothes were simple while others were more complex. The definition of simplicity and complexity was too vague, and in the end, it would be up to them to determine the commission. This would undoubtedly lead to many grievances. It would be better to base the reward on the final selling price of the clothes, which would be clearer and more understandable. After hearing this form of payment, Ah Xiang and her mother were stunned. "There's such a reward system?" "Yes, but you should also be prepared. Our shop is small, and business might not be very good. It's possible that you may only receive the basic wage in a month." "That's enough," Ah Xiang hastily replied. "500 wen a month is already great." Currently, the young and able-bodied villagers who go out for casual labor earn only 20 or 30 wen a day, and they don't always find work. In a month, they might only earn 400 to 500 wen, doing physically demanding and labor-intensive jobs.
