Chapter 191 Everything is harmonious
Actually, salary and benefits are not particularly important issues.
The biggest problem is that the bamboo ware factory built in their village was built in the name of the collective.
The best example is pig farms. Every year after they sell their pigs, the money they get is divided among each household.
Therefore, the meaning represented by this group deserves even more attention.
Lu Yuanqing did have a solution in mind, but he didn't intend to say it out loud. He believed that everything needed to be discussed by everyone.
Perhaps there's a better way? Let's brainstorm!
“There are more than two hundred households in the village. Our village’s bamboo ware factory is not like other large state-owned factories. They hand over their profits to the higher-ups, but we need to share our profits with the villagers!” Zhou Ping glared at them speechlessly, not getting to the point for a long time. She also rolled her eyes to the sky!
Lu Yuanqing pursed his lips, suppressing an overly obvious smile, and reminded them, "You have to pay taxes on the money you earn. After deducting the factory's annual development funds, the remaining money is what the villagers receive!"
Zhou Ping nodded to him, then glared back at Zhao Lide and said, "Did you hear that? Instead of saying so much, why don't you consider this: if they can get a large sum of money every year without doing anything, won't they end up like they were before the grain distribution reform?"
The others then snapped out of their reverie.
Yes!
Judging from the current situation, it's certain that this bamboo ware factory will make money in the future, and the money it makes may even exceed that of the pig farm.
Now, each family can receive several hundred yuan a year from raising pigs. With money in their hands, people are not as motivated to work as before.
Zhao Zhongcai and Lu Yuanqing had already sensed this psychological shift.
They were only kept busy at the bamboo ware factory, and with Zhao Zhongcai supervising and yelling at them every day, they didn't just quit and wait to get their share of the money.
"I'd like to see them dare!" Zhao Sheng slammed his hand on the table, making it shake.
"However, Xiaoping's concerns are reasonable. So, in the meeting, team leader, you should state directly that if anyone slacks off at work, they won't receive any dividends from the factory that year. Only those who perform well the following year will be able to continue receiving dividends!"
Zhao Sheng is an elder of Zhao Zhongcai's clan and also an elder of the Zhao family in the village.
Even the grandfathers sitting in the office right now are the elders of most people in the village.
With them making the decisions, even if someone causes trouble, it will be suppressed.
Moreover, when it comes to disciplining their own younger generation, these elders use both words and actions, showing absolutely no favoritism.
After Zhao Sheng spoke, the others echoed his words.
"That's right. Without rules, nothing can be accomplished. Making things clear in advance will prepare us for any such incidents in the future."
"Now that they have money, they don't work hard anymore. I'll break their legs! Don't worry, with a few of us old folks here, we'll definitely be on your side. Deal with them as they need to, don't hold back!"
With the assurances of several elders, Zhao Zhongcai smiled with narrowed eyes. As the future director of the 'Shihua Bamboo Ware Factory' and the head of Shihua Village, he would definitely take good care of those who wanted to slack off just because they had money!
The group then resumed their harmonious discussion.
They've all been working for decades, and although they may not understand many things, their suggestions for solving problems are definitely worth considering.
Lu Yuanqing's pen flew across the notebook, scribbling down some useful suggestions.
After quickly organizing his thoughts, he said, "Based on the methods we've discussed, I'll now explain the factory's future wages and benefits."
"First, fifty percent of the factory's net profit will be distributed to the villagers. Of the remaining fifty percent, ten percent will go to the factory's management personnel (the exact amount for each person will be discussed later), and the other ten percent will be used as commissions for all of you grandfathers!"
"Grandpa Lu, every time you make a bamboo weaving piece and sell it, you'll receive a commission in addition to your wages. This commission will be deducted from this amount!"
"Of course, Grandpa Lu, once you've taught your apprentices, if their bamboo weaving meets the standards for sale, you'll receive half of the profits over the first three years! What do you think?"
After all, the bamboo ware factory needs to grow and requires more young bamboo weaving craftsmen to take over, since Lu Pingsheng and the others are all getting on in years.
Teaching a student a skill that will sustain them for life doesn't yield much commission over three years.
Lu Yuanqing understood very well that these older folks were indeed quite old, and it would be good if they could work for at most three more years.
If they no longer have that energy, then more young people will be needed.
They've learned a skill, and these grandfathers will surely train many apprentices over the next three years. With these commissions, plus their future dividends, they can easily enjoy their retirement!
Lu Pingsheng and the others looked at Lu Yuanqing gratefully and said that there was no problem.
They hadn't even thought of that.
After all, they earn a lot from their own commissions, and the apprentices they teach are all their own children, as well as children they've watched grow up in the village. They're willing to teach even without tuition fees.
What else could it be but valuing them if not Lu Yuanqing's current arrangement?
What a kind and honest child!
Several older people sighed inwardly!
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
"Okay, no problem with that. You can continue. After deducting the dividends, the remaining 50% will cover the remaining 30%. If we encounter any unexpected situations later, we'll use that money for expenses!"
"Uncle Zhao, I'll definitely find a way to get you a tractor that you've been admiring!"
"Really!" Zhao Zhongcai exclaimed with delight.
He's been talking about it ever since he found out about it.
However, in the entire Dian'an County, they had only heard of Wutai Mountain.
Their commune didn't have a single machine, so you can imagine how poor they were.
If their village really had one, it would be the envy of the entire commune!
Lu Yuanqing smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll definitely get you one!"
"Therefore, large items like these that benefit the village will come from that 30%!"
"No problem, we all agree!"
They talked for a long time that day.
Since this is their first time building a factory, there may be many unknown troubles for them.
But so what?
There are many problems in the world, but there are even more ways to solve them.
They are not afraid of encountering difficulties.
Whenever we encounter a problem, we can solve it by pooling our wisdom and ideas. They are a team, so what is there to be afraid of?
The majority of people in Shihua Village are reasonable, and they become even more polite after they have money.
Lu Yuanqing had no idea what Shihua Village would become in the future.
But so far, everything is developing in the direction he predicted!
