Nongmen's elder sister-in-law is the richest in the world

Chapter 886 Shen Wan and the others’ counterattack and recruitment of female workers!

As for what kind of ranking they can achieve, Shen Xuan and the others are very confident that they will win the exam, and Shen Dong is also confident. As for Shen Jie, he also said that he will accompany the exam.

Of course, these are just some of Shen Jianwan's expectations, and we will only know what the real results will be.

When Shen Jianwan and the others arrived at Qiu'an Mansion on the boat they were traveling on, they were greeted by people along the way.

In addition to welcoming Shen Jianwan, the people were also welcoming Shen Wan, Shen Min and Xie Xiangqin.

Yes, this time Xie Xiangqin and others from Fenghua Buzhuang also came back together with Shen Jianwan and others.

Not only did Shen Wan win the first place in the embroidery competition, Shen Min and Xie Xiangqin also got the fifth and seventh place respectively. These three people actually all got the top ten in the Yamato embroidery competition. For a while, they were settled. The reputation of embroidery in the Qiu'an Prefecture and even the Qiu'an Prefecture next door has spread throughout Yamato, which has brought huge benefits to the embroidery and even the textile industry here.

So this time when the people welcomed Shen Jianwan, they also welcomed Shen Wan and the others.

Shen Wan and Xie Xiangqin were both peaceful women in the past. They had never thought that one day they would get the support of so many people before, and they couldn't help but be so excited that their eyes turned red.

Even the little girl Shen Min felt like she was dreaming when faced with the big guy's love.

It is said that this time they won the top ten in the entire Yamato Dynasty Embroidery Competition. In addition to being able to display their works at the Wanshou Festival, they also received generous rewards from Emperor Xuanping.

In addition to the 10,000 taels of silver for the first name and the 1,000 taels for the first trial, there are also a number of silks, satins and jewelry. The most important thing is that Emperor Xuanping also handwritten plaques for these ten people saying "Yamato Embroidery National Master". This is Shen Wan and the others are the greatest wealth of their trip.

As for the concubines in Emperor Xuanping's harem and the ladies from aristocratic families in the capital, they followed Emperor Xuanping and rewarded them with many things. I won't go into detail one by one.

When they were in the capital, among the ten people who were still single, there were even many wealthy and powerful people who came to seek marriage. Of course, the lintels of the families seeking marriage were all related to the woman's origin, but even among them, there were fifth-grade Beijing officials who came from peasant families. Seeking marriage for their legitimate sons, it can be seen how much the status of these award-winning embroidery girls has improved through this competition.

And Shen Jianwan and the others had just arrived at the Xiangjun's Mansion in Ding'an Prefecture. No, it should be said that it was the current County Lord's Mansion. In less than an hour, someone came to Shen Min to propose marriage.

Next, the families who came to propose marriage to Shen Min came in large waves. In less than half a day, more than ten families from the top families in Ding'an Prefecture came to ask for marriage.

Shen Jianwan was so frightened that they hurriedly closed the door and stopped welcoming guests. At the same time, they spread the news that Shen Min was still young and they were not planning to get engaged to her yet.

After a few days of struggling like this, the number of people who came to propose marriage to Shen Min gradually decreased.

Not only Shen Min is like this, I heard that Xie Xiangqin of the Xie family is in the same situation. In addition to an endless stream of people coming to propose marriage, even Xie Xiangqin's ex-husband knelt in front of the Xie family to beg for reconciliation.

Of course, Xie Xiangqin would not agree to this "reunion" if she could reconcile with Li now, so her ex-husband was beaten away by the Xie family.

Then this matter became a hot topic of discussion in the city. Some people even wrote a book about it and spread it in teahouses and restaurants.

The theme is naturally a story about a woman who strives for self-improvement, who resolutely divorces her husband after being bullied by her husband and his family, and finally uses her embroidery skills to turn the tables and make the scumbag regret it. Later, it evolved into stories of various women counterattacking by relying on their talents, cooking skills, and various crafts.

For a time, the social atmosphere seemed to suggest the rise of women.

Shen Jianwan also seized the opportunity to announce the news that her Jinxiu Xinyin Textile Factory was once again expanding its recruitment, providing a large number of jobs for women, and this trend suddenly reached its climax.

This time, Shen Jianwan's Jinxiu Xinyi Textile Factory recruited two thousand more female textile workers, which was double the number of female textile workers recruited last year.

Since she first recruited a thousand female textile workers last year, many people have been looking forward to her second recruitment. So as soon as the news came out, Shen Jianwan's "Textile Factory" headquarters outside Fucheng was already packed with people.

Shen Jianwan's treatment for recruiting female textile workers is excellent. It can be said that women have never encountered such a large number of formal job opportunities.

Even the income from this job is higher than that of most male laborers. This income is almost only comparable to the work of scholars.

There are mainly three types of female textile workers recruited by Shen Jianwan.

The first is apprenticeship, which recruits women between the ages of ten and fifteen. The monthly salary is three hundred cash per month. The most important thing is that they will have an hour every day to work in the "textile factory". They set up enlightenment schools for learning, and this learning is free.

After two years, they can pass the skills assessment and cultural assessment to become regular workers. The skills assessment will naturally test their embroidery technology and textile technology and other work abilities, while the cultural assessment will assess their literacy level.

Then those who pass the assessment will become official female workers, and even go to the grassroots management level, and their monthly salary will be doubled to a full 600 yuan, or even 800 yuan, and there will also be performance bonuses.

The second type is formal female workers, which recruits women between the ages of 12 and 50. As long as they pass the skills test or cultural test, they can join as ordinary female workers, with a monthly salary of yuan plus performance bonus.

The last category is also the one with the least recruitment. This category is female workers in management. It has relatively high requirements for female workers. In addition to passing the technical examination, it also requires a certain level of knowledge and management ability.

Of course, their income is also the highest, with jobs ranging from 800 to 50 taels of silver, and there are also performance bonuses.

It can be said that whether they are apprentices, formal female workers, or female workers in management, their income is far more than the current income of male laborers from farming. Even from the beginning of formal female workers, their income is no less than the income of some accountants. .

The number of men who can become scholars and find high-paying "decent jobs" that rely on knowledge, such as accounting clerks, can't be said to be just a matter of chance in the imperial examination, but it can definitely be said to be far more than just one in a thousand, a village or even a town. There are not many such people.

But now there are a lot of job opportunities for women that can match the income of accountants. For a while, many people couldn't help but lament that it is easier for girls to get jobs than sons.

If they can have a girl get this job, the financial pressure on the family will drop drastically, and now the girl can become the breadwinner of the family.
