Chapter 398 - Is this fair? (1/2)

Ji Dynasty.

After lunch, Zhao Ming insisted on taking a walk in the garden. She has eaten too much, so she wanted to take a walk to digest the food, otherwise she will get fat.

Ji Cheng and Wen Ru ended up accompanying her for a walk.

” Brother Wen, how many people work here ?” Zhao Ming asks Wen Ru as she was taking a walk with her hands behind and walking casually.

This is not only a shop where they sell items but they make items themselves. So they need more people for it.

But she didn't see many people working here.

Zhao Ming was humming while walking. Her walk was not at all elegant.

With Ji Cheng she doesn't need to pretend to be elegant because he has seen her clumsy side so much that she doesn't even care anymore.

Ji Cheng doesn't react to her actions and does not mind her clumsiness either.

Among all the people in this world, Zhao Ming feels more comfortable with Wen Ru and Ji Cheng. Wen Xu and Xiao Li make her feel nauseous.

” Workers? Ahmm….around 22, 12 men and 10 women.” he said while walking.

He remembered the exact numbers because only today he was discussing their pay, so he remembered it clearly.

Zhao Ming stopped in her steps and looked at him, ” Really?”

She was surprised when she heard his words. Because there were not many people in the pavilion at this moment. Only a few are working, so where are the rest of the employees?

”Hmm. Women are responsible for making the items while men gather the raw material from forest. ” he said casually.

” And a few do the daily chores of the pavilion.”

”But just now I have checked the warehouse and only a few women were working. Where are the other workers?” she was confused because there are very few people that she can see.

” Ah, some workers have gone to the forest to collect the wood and buy the beads from the market while some women are making items in the warehouse with the spare material. '' Wen Ru replied as he looked at Zhao Ming's curious expressions.

” Oh. But what about the women? There were only a few women in the warehouse at the moment who are working. You said there are 10 women but there are only 4 women in the warehouse. ”

” Why are they not working?”

Wen Ru looked at Zhao Ming hearing her questions and replied, ” Others went home since its afternoon time and they have children at home. The other woman has young children, so they have to go back to take care of them. Don't worry, they will come in a while. ”

Many women tend to go back in the afternoon because their children are alone at home. So he has allowed them to go back i'm afternoon and come back later.

He is not like his father and runs the Royal Brush on his own rules. This place was much better than others because Wen Ru is very kind hearted and generous.

Zhao Ming was astounded seeing the working culture of Royal Brush. Brother Wen Ru is too cool.

She has expected a strict working culture like the Palace, but here workers have more freedom than anyone else..

However, this was also the reason that the shop was not doing well.His idea is good but his managing skills is not upto the mark.

Zhao Ming sighed when she realized that Brother Wen is such a softie. He is taking losses for the sake of others.

” Brother Wen, why don't you make a room in the pavilion where their children can play and rest. This way, those women won't need to go anywhere. They can take care of their children and work at the same time.”
