    Shu Yu affirmed.


    Xiang could not help but smile, unable to suppress her excitement.


    Shu Yu smiled and said, “Then let me introduce our shop to Aunt Xiang first?”


    Xiang immediately sat up straight, “Alright.”


    “Our ready-to-wear clothes shop is called Yiren Pavilion, mainly selling women’s clothes. Moreover, the target customers are women from rich families, so the demand for quality is rtively high. The material of the clothes is of high quality too, so you have to be careful when making the clothes.”


    Xiang lowered her head and looked at her hands, “Then I…”


    “It’s okay. I have hand cream. It won’t be a big problem after you take good care of your hands for a few days.”


    Xiang nodded and had no objections.


    Shu Yu continued, “Also, the location of the work is in the county. I have already rented a courtyard in the county specially for making clothes. You can live there.”


    Ever since she decided to hire someone, Shu Yu had been searching for a courtyard.


    It was easy to find such a courtyard. The one she rented was in Liufang Alley, not far from the shop they rented.


    Her shop was not very big now. When her business improved and expanded in the future, she nned to build a workshop.


    Xiang paused and turned to look at her daughter, “Lixing in the county?”


    Fu Xiangdi hurriedly said, “Mom, I’ll be fine alone.”


    Shu Yu raised her hand and interrupted them, “Xiangdi cane with you, of course. I’ve been paying attention to her just now and I want to hire her too. Not to mention anything else, her cutting technique is neat and fast.”


    Just like her personality.


    Fu Xiangdi’s eyes lit up instantly, “Really? Me too?”


    “Yes, but your sry will definitely be lower.”


    “No problem. As long as there’s food and shelter, I don’t need a sry.”


    Shu Yuughed, “That won’t do. Let’s talk about the issue of wages first. Aunt Xiang’s sry will be the basic sry plusmissions. Xiangdi’s sry will only be the basic sry.”


    “What do you mean by basic sry plusmissions?


    This was the first time Xiang and her daughter had heard ofmissions. They were both puzzled.


    Shu Yu exined, “The basic sry is fixed at 500 coins per month. It’s the same for you and Xiangdi. Commissions work such that if clothes you made are sold, you will be given additional wages based on the prices of the clothes sold. For example, if a piece of clothing was sold for a tael of silver, Aunt Xiang would be given an extra 50 coins asmission, two taels would be a hundred coins ofmission, and so on. There is no limit to themissions.” Shu Yu originally wanted to givemissions for every piece of clothing made.


    However, after thinking about it, there were simple andplicated clothes, but the definition of simple andplicated was too general. Wouldn’t themission ultimately be her decision? This would surely cause a lot of dissatisfactionter on.


    As such, it would be better to base themissions on the final transaction price of the clothes.


    Xiang and her daughter were stunned when they heard about all this.


    “This works too?”


    “Yes, but you have to be mentally prepared. Our shop is small, so our business might not be that good. It’s also possible that you only get the basic sry each month.”


    “That’s enough too,” Xiang hurriedly said, “Five hundred coins a month is already very good.”


    Nowadays, the young and middle-aged men in the vige only earned 20 to 30 coins a day when they went out to do short-term jobs. Plus, they could not find work every day. As such, they might only be earning four or five hundred coins a month, and all the work was hardbor..
