In order for the Nangong Army to go out, he had made an agreement with Li Xiao.

After he ascended the throne, the NangongArmy could choose to stay in the army and join the imperial court’s army, or return to Qingshi Town and become a civilian.

Now that he had the Imperial Advisor’s help, if everything went smoothly, he might be able to succeed next year.

In this way, the lack of people in the workshop could indeed be resolved.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled again.

“I didn’t want to wait like this.”

Faced with Prince Anyang’s puzzled gaze, Lin Xiaoyue continued, “my sister has already arranged for people to find a place. After we’ve chosen a place, we’ll build another large workshop. At that time, we’ll recruit the nearby villagers to work in the workshop.”

Prince Anyang nodded.

“Do you have any location in mind?”

Opening a large-scale workshop requires a lot of manpower.

If this was done well, it could provide for many people.

Just from the Liu family workshop he had visited earlier, there were probably no less than 200 people working inside.

Ms. Lin had told him before that the workshop was very beneficial to the local economy. Now, he had witnessed it for himself.

Just comparing Daishi Village to the other villages around it, the houses were taller and larger, and there were more brick houses.

In addition, the villagers of Daishi Village were dressed better than the villagers of the surrounding villages.

This was all thanks to the Liu family’s workshop in Daishi Village.

“Yes.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.

“In order to facilitate transportation, the workshop will be located as close as possible to the dock of Qingshi Town. Moreover, the dock is closer to the town, so it’s more convenient to recruit workers.”

Prince Anyang frowned slightly.

“It’s more convenient for the people in the town to find work than the people in the village. The requirements are also higher. Wouldn’t it increase the labor costs if we set up the workshop in town?” He asked.

From his point of view, he actually hoped that Master Lin could open her workshop in the village. freewebn ovel.c om

In this way, not only that village, but even the villagers of several surrounding villages could go to work in the workshop. In this way, the lives of the villagers in several villages could improve.

However, if she opened a workshop in the town, most of the benefits would go to the people living in the town.

However, for these commoners, even if they did not go to the workshop, they could still find other jobs relatively easily.

The workshop was obviously not as helpful to them as it was to the villagers.

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

“The labor cost will indeed be higher, but the logistics cost and human resource cost will be reduced.”

She saw that Prince Anyang did not understand.

“Let’s compare the workshop in Daishi Village with the workshop that will be built by the dock in the future,” explained Lin Xiaoyue.

“The chili, cabbage, oil, salt, and other materials needed for the production in the workshop, as well as the pottery jars and oil paper needed for packaging, all need to be transported in from outside.”

“Now, the workshop needs a lot of manpower and resources to transport these things every day.”

“Then, after the goods are produced, Young Master Liang and Third Master Zhou will need to send people to Daishi Village to take the goods away. They also need to pay for this part of the logistics cost.”

“But for the workshops by the dock, other than the chilies that need to be transported from the various villages to the workshops, the other materials can be bought in town.”

“Even cabbages. At that time, we just need to set up a cabbage purchasing point beside the workshop. The nearby villagers will take the initiative to send the cabbage to the workshop.”

“Or we can just make an announcement. For example, the cabbage will be bought at a minimum of 1,000 catties. When the time comes, someone will drive the ox cart to the villages to collect the cabbages and sell them to the workshop.”

“The transportation distance is shorter, and time is saved. We can renegotiate the price with the merchants.”

“Furthermore, the workshop is close to the dock. If the merchants from other places deliver their goods by sea, there will be a cost advantage. The workshop will have more suppliers to choose from.

“At the same time, there are more people in town, and more smart people.

Things like cabbages can be directly distributed. We can save a lot of trouble.”

“It’s also more convenient to recruit people. When the factory orders increase and we are in a time crunch, we can add more workers at any time.”

“Besides, according to my plan, apart from the workshop, I also plan to build some dormitories next to the workshop.”

Prince Anyang was puzzled.

“It’s for the workers who live far away,” Lin Xiaoyue explained.

“If you’re from town, you can go home. If you live far away, you can stay in the workshop’s dormitory.”

Prince Anyang nodded and felt that Lin Xiaoyue’s idea was not bad. freewebnov(e)l.com

With dormitories, even the villagers in remote villages could go to work in the workshop.

“Of course, there is a cost to build a dormitory. The workers who lived in the dormitory had to work more hours, and they had to work overtime as much as possible. Only in this way can the workshop reduce costs.”

Prince Anyang nodded.

“If you live near the workshop, it’ll be more convenient for you to go to work.

They should be happy to work more..”
