Chapter 188 Offer
For several days in a row, needless to say, I got up early again.

After the handicraft workshop was built, Gu Qingyou divided the female workers into two groups, and selected twenty or so of the hundreds of people with the most meticulous workmanship and the most nimble hands and feet to live in the small courtyard, specializing in high-end custom-made work. , and the rest are being stocked up in large workshops.

In this way, the female workers who were assigned to the small courtyard felt a little uneasy.

No matter whether it is high-end or low-end, they are all paid on a piece-by-piece basis. The difference lies in the small items like dolls. The fee for making one piece is low, but the speed is fast. Even if it has not been sold to the outside world, Gu Qingyou has already paid the wages.

As for the few of them, the commission for each piece of work is high, but if they want to continue to work steadily, they need a steady stream of orders to support them.

This time Gu Qingyou came back with a full load, almost one order was brought back, which made everyone happy for a long time.

However, there are also female workers who consider ordering shawls. Due to the size of the craft and other issues, the construction period is relatively long. Before the order is completed, they have almost no income at all. Therefore, they suggest that it is better to work in pairs, crochet one piece at the same time, and then crochet the other together. pieces.

In this way, for the same working hours, half of the wages can be obtained in the middle, and everyone feels at ease.

This request sounded reasonable, but Gu Qingyou refused.

"There is no mold for crochet products, and individuals have different feelings about the degree of tightness of the thread, and the effect of crochet will also be slightly different. It is inevitable that there will be differences between the left and right sides of the shawl."

Shuang Jiang nodded in agreement. The shawl she gave to Princess Qin was almost endless. Gu Qingyou originally thought of this method, which was to crochet with her at the same time, but after only crocheting a little, she discovered the problem and changed her strategy. .

Changing left and right to up and down, Gu Qingyou divided the shawl into three parts: upper, middle and lower. Since she hooked better and faster, she was in charge of up and down, while Shuang Jiang only hooked the middle. Finally, Gu Qingyou connected the three parts together. The middle part is obviously different from the upper and lower styles, but it seems to be a deliberately ingenious design, which can be regarded as the icing on the cake.

But that was because time was too tight, and she had to find another way. Now that there is enough time, it is of course best that the whole shawl can be unified in style.

As for the remuneration mentioned by the workers, she has long thought about it. Before starting work, she will pay part of it in advance, and then pay part of it when the shawl is finished.

This move was unanimously approved by the female workers. Thinking of the generous remuneration for each cloak, everyone worked overtime, and no one wanted to slack off, because time is money!
The handicraft workshop is becoming more and more mature, and the tea shop is also becoming more profitable. It seems that everything is developing in a good way. Gu Qingyou is as energetic as the female workers every day, and only feels that the future is promising.

Xue Lan saw that her daughter was able to do a job with ease, and gradually put her mind on the business of the Duke's Mansion. The delivery station established a foothold in Shangjing, and rushed to the whole country with a lightning trend, blooming everywhere.

Song Chengye has been depressed since Xue Lin'er's death, drinking at home all day long, Xue Lan was upset when he saw it, and just happened to set up a new station in a county not far from Beijing, so he sent him out of Beijing under the pretext of letting him practice, so as not to be in front of his eyes every day dangling.

Although the two women are not together, they are working together for a better life. This feeling of going hand in hand, accompanied by the germination of spring, brings vitality and excitement to life.

"Shopkeeper, the back chef said that Keemun Kungfu (black tea) is almost used up, when do you think you will go to buy it?"

Gu Qingyou was in the corner of the tea shop, calculating the profit for this period of time, and she stretched herself very satisfied with the figure at the end.

Hearing what the man said, she took advantage of the opportunity to close the ledger, went to the back kitchen to check, not only the black tea was used up, but also the green tea was running out, and she needed to buy some together, and said, "I'll go to the tea shop right now, if it's really not enough , you can ask customers if they would like to change flavors.”

The spring rain was like crisp, and colorful oil-paper umbrellas were set up on the street. Gu Qingyou tried it with his palms facing upwards. The rain was as fine as a cow's hair, almost negligible. Thinking that the tea shop was very close to the corner of the street, he didn't hold it up. umbrella.

It is said that spring rain is as expensive as oil, but that is for the farmers who face the loess and their backs to the sky. The nobles who come out to hang out will definitely not like it.

After taking a few steps, Gu Qingyou regretted it. The rain was so fine and dense that it felt very small at first, but its penetrating power was extremely strong, and it had already soaked the thin jacket on her body.

The tea shop was not far ahead, thinking that it was time to go back to get the umbrella, so she put her hands on her forehead to make a temporary umbrella shed, and trotted all the way over.

Walking to the door of the tea shop, he suddenly remembered that this was Song Hengye's shop, and couldn't help but slow down.

Gu Qingyou didn't know why she was hesitating, afraid of bumping into him?
It seems a little unfounded, I have been here many times before, but I have never met him once, so it can be seen that he usually does not come to the store at all.

But in fact, it's nothing to meet, and we are not enemies. She wants to keep a distance, but it doesn't mean she has to avoid it like a snake and scorpion, but it seems more deliberate.

After struggling for a while, I suddenly felt that my twisting was unreasonable, and it was more like being self-indulgent, so I was relieved.

Laughing to death, maybe she is just willing to help others, and she, a woman in the new era, thinks about things, which is simply unreasonable.

After running into the tea shop, the hair on her cheeks was wet and sticking to her face, she dialed casually, and called the waiter, "Ah Hua, Qimen Kungfu and Biluochun are two catties each."

Ah Hua was the guy he met when he came back that night, because he was already very familiar with him, he smiled and said: "It's raining outside, what does Boss Gu need, just ask someone to come to the meeting, why did you come here in person?"

If someone else asked this question, she might think she wouldn't trust her, but Gu Qingyou knew that Ah Hua had good intentions, so he said: "It's okay, I've been sitting in the store for a long time, and I came out to do some activities."

The clerk handed her a clean veil and led her to sit in the inner room, while he was busy packing the tea.

Every time he came here in the past, Gu Qingyou would wait outside, but today his hair was all wet, so he didn't refuse.

Because they are acquainted, each time the buddy will divide the tea into small bags according to her request, so he won't be back for a while.

It just so happened that there was a bronze mirror on the table, so she simply let her hair spread out and dried it in front of the mirror. She will be busy recently, so she must not catch a cold.

Even though it is spring, because the tea leaves are afraid of getting wet, there is still a carbon basin inside.

The veil was already wet, and it wouldn't work if you wiped it again, so Gu Qingyou sat in front of the charcoal fire, held up her hair, and dried it with hot air.

There were footsteps coming from behind, thinking that Ah Hua had come back, Gu Qingyou hurriedly tied up her hair with her hands, turned around and said, "Why are you so fast today?"

After seeing who was coming, she hurriedly got up, and put her hands by her side with some embarrassment: "Second Young Master, why is it you?"
