Chapter 360: Reward and Punishment (2)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The hiring process varied depending on who she wanted to hire.
“Miss is right. But the expenses would be high.” Cao De couldn’t help but say to Lin Xiaoyue.
He agreed with her idea.
However, they would require a lot of money to implement.
Hiring workers and building the farms require money.
Building a house was only a small part of the expenditure. The bigger part was actually the money to buy the piglet and chicks.
Piglets, in particular, were not cheap.
As for breeding, it was not as simple as what she said.
They would be able to earn a lot of money if they bred them well.
Otherwise, the piglet or chick could die.
Worse still, if there was an epidemic, killing the livestock in batches, the losses would be huge.
Lin Xiaoyue nodded.
“The expenses are naturally high, but it is still within the range of what we can afford.”
Lin Xiaoyue thought for a while and said, “how about this? 1’11 give you 2,000 taels of silver for each manor. Work with the accountant to execute the plan.”
“The pig and chicken farms must be built. Also, the policy of hiring people to farm cannot be changed.”
“For some jobs, if you really can’t trust outsiders. You can go to the Zhou Trading Company to buy the workers. Of course, this money had to be deducted from the budget.”
“I only have one request. By the end of next year, the output of the manor must earn 4,000 taels of silver.”
“That includes the unspent money, the agricultural products and the discounted value of livestock. As for the houses that were built, they were not included in the calculation.”
The three men were shocked.
Doubling the money within a year and that did not include the expenses of building houses and buying workers?
Miss is too ruthless…
Even Li Xiao and Zhou s.h.i.+ were a little surprised.
She was quite ambitious.
The three men looked at each other, their faces filled with fear.
Fan Ming was just about to speak when he heard Lin Xiaoyue speak again.
“Don’t think that 4,000 taels of silver is too high a target.”
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the three men. “The amount of chili peppers can reach more than 3,000 catties per mu of land and we can plant them for three seasons a year.”
“After the red chilies are dried, 10 catties of raw chilies are roughly 1 catty of dried chilies. As for these dried red chilies, they can be sold at 15 wen per catty.”
The men began to calculate in their hearts.
According to Miss, 1 mu of land could produce 3,000 catties of chili, which was about 300 catties of dried chilies.
The dried chilies could yield 15 wen per catty. Therefore, the profit from the chili peppers on one mu of land was 4,500 wen, which was equivalent to 4 taels and 5 silver coins.
For 3 seasons a year, the income from 1 mu of land planted with chilis would be 13 taels of silver.
Each manor had more than 300 mu of land.
Just the income from the chilis alone was more than 4,000 taels of silver!
After calculating the result, they were shocked.
Then, their opinions also changed.
If the production of chili peppers was so high, the income from the chili peppers alone would be very considerable!
Besides, there were also sweet potatoes.
They could be used to feed livestock. By then, the income from the pig and chicken farms would probably not be less than the chilis.
Thinking about it this way, it seemed that her request was not too much.
Lin Xiaoyue seemed to have thought of something and suddenly spoke again.
“Forget it, 1’11 give you another job. After the dried red chilies are ready, you can then process them into chili powder.”
“Send the chili powder to the workshop in Dais.h.i.+ Village. The price will be 20 wen per catty.”
If they gave the chili powder to the workshop, the workers would not even know what the chilies look like. It would be safer this way.
As for the people who worked in the manors, although they planted chili, they did not know what they were used for.
With Liang Yu and Third Master Zhou keeping an eye on them, they couldn’t do anything.
When the three heard that the unit price would increase by 5 when the chili was ground into powder, their faces were filled with joy..
