Chapter 364 Welfare
The buddies and workers who worked with them had been with them for several years. They knew each other's temperaments to some extent and were all honest and hardworking people who worked sincerely for them. They had put in their heart and soul and put in their labor, so naturally they couldn't treat them unfairly.
They can't pocket all the money they earn while the workers and assistants are paid like they're getting paid in the market. If this continues, the workers and assistants will become disheartened, and even those who aren't lazy will learn to slack off.
Lin Qingchuan said, "Alright, then I'll trouble you to allocate some silver to give everyone a reward, so that everyone can get one."
Manager Su thought for a moment and said, "Qingchuan, how about this: we pay them by the year. One tael of silver for one year of service, two taels of silver for two years. The longer they work for us, the more silver they will receive. This way, everyone will be more willing to work for us for a long time. With more money paid each year, everyone will surely be happy."
"Yes, that's a good idea. Paying out annually will prevent people from feeling cheated and will also motivate them to keep working with us."
The accountant standing to the side was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with surprise. He hadn’t expected the two employers to be so generous, giving out such a large reward. One tael for each year of service, so ten years would be ten taels of silver, and twenty years would be… Good heavens, he was already forty-five years old. If he worked for the employers for twenty years, he would be sixty-five by then.
For the first time, he felt that he was getting old and didn't have many good years left to live. If he could be given a chance to be reborn ten years later, he would be only thirty-five years old now and could serve his two employers for another ten years. How wonderful that would be.
The accountant's smile gradually faded, and a sense of melancholy arose in his heart.
I just regret that I met my employer so late!
He sighed, his expression quickly returning to normal, and asked, "My two masters, then I'll work for you as you say, for a year and be paid one tael of silver, based on the current number of workers and companions, is that alright?"
Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su exchanged a glance and finalized the agreement.
Manager Su instructed, "Keep a clear record of the accounts and calculate the total amount of silver needed. If the restaurant doesn't have enough cash, go to the bank to exchange some tomorrow morning and distribute it to everyone as soon as possible. This will give everyone more energy to work."
The accountant bowed to Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su, and said sincerely, "The two bosses are very generous and considerate of the hard work of the workers and employees. They have specially given everyone a bonus. In recent years, we have never heard of any boss in Dushui County and the neighboring counties giving out bonuses so generously. We have all made the right choice in following the two bosses. Today, I would like to thank the two bosses on behalf of everyone."
I'll calculate the amount of silver in a little while, and we'll exchange it at the money exchange tomorrow. Then the two owners will personally distribute it to everyone, and everyone will remember their kindness."
Manager Su said with a smile, "Our business is thriving now, and everyone deserves credit. If it weren't for everyone working together, our restaurant and herb garden wouldn't have earned so much money. We can't make money and eat meat while not even giving everyone a sip of soup. Wouldn't that break everyone's hearts if we didn't work for them?"
From now on, as long as everyone sincerely follows us, we will lead you to a better life. Even if we expand our business to the capital, let alone the neighboring counties, our benefits will be the best. Whenever we encounter a restaurant or merchant offering wages and benefits to their employees, we will strive to match that, raising our rates even higher than the best!
The accountant's eyes lit up, and his lips immediately curled into a wide smile.
"That's great! If we follow the two managers, we'll definitely make a fortune in the future, everyone will be able to save money, live in nice houses, and live a good life!"
