"I am a businessman and I am not a charity person. I give you these wages naturally because you need to do so much work for a lot of money." Su Tang also saw that the father and daughter felt that the wages they paid were too high. So explain it carefully.
Su Tang was not a charity person, and it was better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. She wanted to give Zhou Xiaocao a chance, but she was not prepared to give her free money.
Su Tang's money was earned through hard work. Zhou Xiaocao had food and drink at home, so she didn't need her sympathy.
The reason why Zhou Xiaocao is given so much wages is because the average waiter in a restaurant in Qinghe Town currently earns about 300 taels of silver a month, while those who hire bookkeepers and shopkeepers will pay more, and the bookkeepers will cost at least 30 taels of silver. The shopkeeper will charge you anywhere from 20 taels to 50 taels of silver, depending on what kind of shop it is.
Like Yang Fudou's grocery store, his annual profit is only more than 20 taels of silver. He can't afford an accountant or a shopkeeper, so he can only look after it.
Su Tang would give Zhou Xiaocao a higher wage than ordinary workers because Zhou Xiaocao would basically have to help with the decoration of the grilled fish shop and the preparation of the shop, which was a very heavy workload.
Naturally, wages cannot be reduced. The basic principle is that the amount of work you do is the same as the wage.
So Su Tang also said to Zhou Xiaocao, "I'm very busy. After the restaurant in Qinghe Town is purchased, I need you to keep an eye on it from the beginning of the decoration."
And if you want to be a shopkeeper, you have to learn to read. I'm afraid I don't have time. You can learn from Mrs. Jiang's family. She is also learning to read.
You two will be responsible for the restaurant affairs for the time being, but she still has to take care of Xiao Nian, so you will run more, and you deserve the salary. "
For now, Mrs. Zhang has nothing to do. Su Tang also asked Mrs. Zhang to follow many things in the restaurant. Mrs. Zhang used to live with Jiang Hong, and she also recognized a few words, but not many. She is also learning recently.
Su Tang meant that Zhang had opened a restaurant with Jiang Hong before. This time, she would temporarily let her bring Zhou Xiaocao to open this grilled fish restaurant. When it is opened, Zhou Xiaocao can stand up. When the time comes, let Mr. Zhang open a chain of grilled fish restaurants in Qingshui Town.
It is more convenient for the couple to live together. Jiang Nian's body is in good health. It is said that there will be no problems after a while. Children have relatively strong recovery capabilities.
In this way, Zhou Xiaocao has someone to take care of him, so he won't suddenly not know how to do things, and he has a serious future.
Zhou Dazhu and Zhou Xiaocao were even more grateful when they heard that they could learn to read. They also understood that Su Tang paid a lot of money, but the work was also tiring, but Zhou Xiaocao was eager to give it a try. She wanted to give it a try.
"Then let's follow what the boss said." Zhou Dazhu and Zhou Xiaocao quickly entered their roles and directly changed their names.
Su Tang did not object or stop him. He nodded, took the labor contract and explained it to them carefully. Finally, he added, "In addition to the wages I mentioned before, there is another point that is also clearly written in the contract. In my opinion, You must keep your mouth shut when doing things here. Anything you see in the shop and around me can only enter your eyes and ears. Never spread it out. Not even your parents and relatives can say anything. If I find out , then I can only count you as a breach of contract and send you to see the official."
Although grilled fish restaurants basically don't have too many secrets, Su Tang still made it clear in advance to avoid any problems.
