After the Full Level of the Profession

Robb couldn't help laughing and crying: "You saw this when you woke up?"

Lillian and the four middle-aged women who were invited to help weave and sew socks hid in the back far away, poking their heads in fear, when they heard Robb's question, they nodded quickly: " Yes, it wasn't like that yesterday."

A woman said: "No wonder this big spider was not willing to spin silk yesterday. It turns out that it is about to lay eggs."

"It's really scary." Lilian said: "If we only lay a few dozen eggs, we can still raise them, but there are so many in our lives, we can't support them, Master, it seems that we can only deal with them. More than half of the eggs, only a small part is left, otherwise, these hundreds of eggs hatch at the same time, and the little spiders run around all over the ground, it is not disgusting and dead."

Robb was actually thinking about this, but he glanced at the middle-aged woman next to him, and suddenly thought that there are hundreds of such women in Xifeng Town, and they are also idle when they are idle, and smiled: "If you deal with it, It's too wasteful. The silk spit by this spider can be used to make stockings, and it can be sold for a good price. It can form a pretty good industry. Well, let me build a big factory and put these hundreds of spider eggs. All hatched, used to spin silk, and then hired all the women in the town, let’s come up with the fifth largest industry in Westwind Town—the manufacturing of stockings.”

There are currently only four industries in Xifeng Town, namely mining, hunting, agriculture, and herb collection. Except for agriculture, these four industries are all high-risk and heavy physical work. Only men can play it well. Apart from doing some farm work at home, there is no value.

And Robb's opening is to hire all the women in the town, which will undoubtedly be a great act of kindness.

The four middle-aged women next to him gave Robb the most solemn gift on the spot: "Praise the God of Light, praise Father Robert!"

"Don't patronize compliments." Robb smiled: "Go to someone, help me call the cloth dealer in the town, I want to build this factory, and I can't do it without the help of the cloth dealer."

Soon after, the cloth dealer was invited.

The cloth merchant in Westwind Town is actually a very, very small businessman. When Robb just bought Lillian a month ago, he once went to the cloth merchant to buy cotton cloth and black dye. When the merchant saw Robb, he hurriedly saluted and shouted first. Dad, then stood with his hands down: "You sent someone to call me here, what instructions do you have?"

Robb said with a smile: "I use spider silk to make stockings, you should know?"

The town is too small to have no secrets, and the white stockings on Lillian's legs are too eye-catching. In fact, the whole town knows that Robb is doing stockings, but everyone knows it and knows it, but they can't learn it.

The cloth merchant nodded quickly: "Yes, I know."

Robb said: "My spiders suddenly lay eggs, hundreds of them at a time. I wanted to burn them all, but after thinking about it, I thought it was too wasteful. It's better to feed all these spiders and make a large one. Pantyhose factory. But you know, I'm a busy man..."

As soon as he said this, a strange expression flashed on the face of the cloth merchant. Although he did not speak, Robb seemed to hear him say: "Cut!"

Robb: "What was your expression just now?"

The cloth merchant hurriedly said, "No, no! I don't have any expressions."

"Okay, then I'll go on." Robb said, "Where did you say that? Oh, yes, I just said that I am very busy..."

Cloth dealer: "Cut!"

Robb: "I'll wipe, this time you not only made a face, but cut out your voice."

Cloth dealer: "..."

Robb said: "Forget it, I don't care about the villain, and then I talk about the real business. I don't have time to do any factory management, operation and other things, so I want to hire a professional manager, or a factory Long, I think you are the right person."

"Huh?" The cloth merchant became a little excited: "Really?"

Robb said: "Then there is still a fake! Most of the townspeople in this town are small producers, small handicraftsmen, and they can't even do the simplest arithmetic problems. Only you, a business person, have the ability. Make overall arrangements and calculations, I think you can do it."

The cloth dealer was moved!

Luo Bo said: "You can't actually make a lot of money by selling some linen and cotton. Follow me to make stockings and make high-end products. That's a better way to reach the peak of life. I won't talk nonsense anymore, just ask you one question. , are you coming?"

"Yes, of course!" The cloth merchant quickly agreed.

In fact, the cloth dealer knew exactly how valuable the stockings were, because he and the itinerant merchant were good friends.

The cloth purchase channel in his shop is the itinerant merchant. Every time the itinerant merchant comes to Westwind Town, he will bring him some cloth and let him sell it in the shop.

Because of this, every time the itinerant merchant came to Westwind Town, he would chat with him.

A few days ago, the itinerant merchant came to Xifeng Town and bought a small amount of silk stockings from Robb. At that time, he sighed a few words to the cloth merchant, saying that this kind of stockings is a unique and good product in Fengmo Continent. I like it, it can be sold for a big price, but unfortunately the quantity is too small.

The cloth dealer listened to it and remembered it in his heart, but he was unable to intervene. Now Robb suddenly wants to hand over the management of this business to him, which is not a great joy.

"Father, what do you want me to do, just tell me, I will do my best to do it."

Robb secretly rejoiced: Very good, and you don't have to get tired yourself.

He thought for a while and said, "First of all, it is to build a factory. You need to ask some townspeople to help and pay them. Just build a random piece of land on the hillside behind my church... Be careful about building a factory. It’s time to think about how to raise spiders in advance, and ask an experienced hunter to guide you on how to build a house that is most suitable for raising spiders in large numbers.”

The cloth dealer quickly took note.

Robb said with a smile: "You have to hire people while the factory building is under construction. The division of labor must be fine, at least divided into four groups of people. One group of people must be men, who are mainly responsible for raising spiders, and nothing else. The second group all need women, they only need to take care of weaving cloth, and nothing else. The third group also needs women, who are responsible for sewing the woven cloth into stockings, and nothing else. The fourth group It is responsible for counting the number of finished stockings, putting them in the warehouse, managing them well, and shipping them to the itinerant merchants when they come to buy them... If the speed of the itinerant merchants' acquisitions can't keep up with our production speed, you can build one yourself. The caravan, which belongs to the fourth group, will be transported to the Bright Road by ourselves to sell the stockings."

Chapter 76 You are here to spy on me

The cloth dealer couldn't help but wonder: "Father, why is the division of labor so fine? If everyone's work is divided so finely, the usefulness of one person will become smaller, wouldn't it lead to more people? Pay some more and go out."

"No, no, it won't. If a person does everything from raising spiders to weaving to sewing socks to selling, it will make his actions inefficient, and it will take many people to do it." Robb laughed Said: "Refinement of the division of labor will allow us to hire fewer people and pay less salaries. You will gradually understand in the future."

The cloth dealer couldn't understand, but that didn't prevent him from doing so obediently.

After receiving a start-up capital from Robb, the cloth merchant went to the town to find someone to build a factory.

It didn't take long for a large group of townspeople to come back with the cloth merchant. There was also an old acquaintance here. The plasterer who built the water tower for Robb heard that he was going to build a factory for Robb. He was very excited. He kept saying: "It is my honor to serve Father again."

Robb said with a smile: "The things to be built this time will allow women in the whole town to participate in production and work, and everyone will make a lot of money. Let's work hard."

"That's great. My wife has always wanted to do something to support her family."

The factory building was built very quickly. These days, building a house does not require laying foundations or running any sewer pipes. It is simply to level the land, then pick up a pile of stones and mud, and dozens of townspeople work together. Within a few days, the house was erected.

Next is the migration of the spider eggs. The cloth dealer invited the most experienced old hunter in the town to guide him, and moved the spider eggs one by one into the workshop, and placed them in the spider rooms of small cells and small cells. .

Robb heard that the old hunter had been warning the townspeople who were moving the spider eggs: "Take your hands and feet! This spider's eggs contain highly poisonous mucus. Although there is a priest behind us who can detoxify you, even if No matter how fast you solve it, you will be sour with the venom, and I guarantee you don't want to experience that feeling."

Hearing such a warning, the townspeople dared to neglect and carefully moved the eggs into the new factory building.

In the end, the old hunter personally led the chain and brought the four big spiders into the workshop. After closing them, he breathed a sigh of relief, and finally gave a warning: "I have to remind you that you must be very careful when raising this kind of spider. Let one of them escape, or God will condemn you if they escape and poison the townspeople."

Robb smiled and said to the old hunter: "Don't worry, old man, I will use holy water to draw a huge circle outside the factory building. This kind of spider is evil, and they don't like going through the circle drawn by holy water."

After hearing what Robb said, the old hunter was relieved: "It will be fine if the priest is covered."

The next step is to prepare a large number of looms, needles and threads, and hire women from the town. All kinds of preparations are carried out in an orderly manner. Of course, all these things are done by cloth merchants. Robb just needs to be lazy in the yard. Enough.

Then, ten days passed in a blink of an eye...

The first batch of small spiders hatched in the workshop, and the "spider rearing group" hired by the cloth merchants took the lead in putting into work. They were responsible for raising these small spiders healthy enough to spin silk.

Robb really doesn't know how to raise spiders. Fortunately, it's not a problem for the hunters in the town. The spider raising team takes good care of the little spiders.

In mid-August, the weather became even hotter, and the cries of "knowing, knowing" rang out all day in the woods on the mountain, making people's brains aching.

Robb was still lazy on the stone chair in the yard, and an uninvited guest suddenly appeared at the door of the church.

Robb just glanced at it and couldn't help laughing: "Yo, it's Xiao Yi, what kind of wind blows you here again?"
