Lin Fan glanced at the group of people, then took a few steps forward, stood in front of them, coughed, and said, "As you can see, I will be the new factory manager of the garment factory from now on."

"I know you don't care about any of the other nonsense, you just want to know how the factory is run and how your wages are paid."

“You must have had fixed wages and fixed working hours before, but I think times are changing and some things need to be reformed. So in my factory, the principle of ‘the capable do more’ is followed.”

"How long you work each day is not important; what matters is how much work you do during those hours!"

“For every garment sold in our factory, a portion of the profit will be publicly and transparently distributed to you. In other words, the more garments you produce, the more wages you will receive. I call this the dispersed shareholding system.”

Lin Fan looked at the female workers in front of him, their eyes wide with anticipation, and gave them a brief introduction to the future plans of his factory.

To be precise, this wasn't a legitimate way of distributing shares; he just used the name briefly. Of course, the name isn't important; what matters is the content he conveyed in his words.

"For example, if a piece of clothing sells for ten yuan, one yuan of that will be divided equally among you. You can all understand what I mean, right?"

"So the amount of your wages here does not depend on me, but on the labor of each of you. Of course, because everyone has different tasks, different divisions of labor, and different procedures, there will be a simple assessment after you enter the site. Different people do different things and receive different powers. Those with higher technical skills will earn more money."

"You'll be paid whatever amount of clothing and shoes you helped make that day."

In fact, many bosses use this pie-in-the-sky approach of promising more work to those who are capable, but few can actually implement it.

In the future, the more you work and the more overtime you put in, the more your boss will earn, but your salary won't increase much. The so-called "the capable should do more" is just empty talk.

But Lin Fan really intended to popularize and implement the concept of "the capable should do more" here.

"This... Factory manager, is what you said really true? From now on, our wages will be distributed based on how much work we do, not on the hours we work?"

Hearing Lin Fan's words, the female workers below were all somewhat shocked.

When I worked in a state-owned garment factory, I started work at 8:00 AM and finished at 12:00 PM every day, then started work at 2:00 PM and finished at 6:00 PM, and I also had a one-hour night shift.

No one really supervises how much work was done or how many tasks were completed, but each group had a designated group leader to oversee the work.

Anyway, they don't know exactly how much you did, but you just can't stop working. You have to make it clear to people that you are actually doing something.

Based on this model, there are many people in these assembly line-like factories who try to slack off. Since the wages are the same and they can finish their shifts and go home, why bother to work hard?

But things are different now. Lin Fan is paying them based on how much work they do. Doesn't that mean they can earn more money than before just by working a little harder?

"That's right, that's what I mean. So even if you stay in the factory all day but only make a few garments, I won't blame you. I'll pay you whatever you make, so I won't lose out. The decision of how much money you make is up to you!"

"Of course, I'm not that hypocritical. I'm doing this to motivate you to work harder, so that I, as the boss, can also earn more. At most, it's a win-win situation for everyone."

"As you can see, I'm not that old, and I don't want to get involved in any of those complicated things. I just want to keep this factory running smoothly!"

"As long as you are willing to earn this money, I will provide you with this opportunity and I will definitely not let you suffer any losses."

Lin Fan looked at the group of female workers in front of him and spoke calmly.

Even Sun Hongxia was a little excited.

"Factory manager, if that's really the case, I guarantee that everyone's enthusiasm will be unprecedented!"

At this point, Sun Hongxia rubbed her hands together happily.

He had a premonition that the jobs he had found for the people around him today might be lucrative ones.

This way, all my hard work in gathering them together wasn't in vain, and I've finally given them a satisfactory explanation!

"Haha, the more enthusiastic you are, the better."

“Aunt Sun, you’ll get the same. From now on, you’ll get five percent of the factory’s revenue. You’ll take whatever percentage the factory makes. The more the factory makes, the more you’ll get!”

In a small county like this, the concept of shares is still relatively shallow.

So this was the first time everyone had encountered such a novel way of paying salaries.

Upon hearing this, Sun Hongxia was even more excited.

Five percent may not sound like much, but for such a large factory, in addition to all the necessary expenses, it also has to pay employee salaries, so Lin Fan might only end up with about 30% or 40% of the profit.

He's offering me 5% right off the bat. What boss would be so generous?

"This... Factory Manager, I really don't know what to say!"

"Don't worry, I'll definitely lead them to do a good job!"

"Anyone who's lazy, disobedient, or can't generate revenue for the factory, I'll fire them!"

Sun Hongxia clapped her hands and spoke excitedly.

Lin Fan smiled slightly and continued, "This is how we will pay your wages. I will inform you of the factory's location and the start date together, which should be in a few days. Get ready!"

"I need to tidy up the factory and get all the equipment ready in the next few days. Then we can start production immediately. It won't take long, so don't worry!"

Everyone was relieved to hear that Lin Fan's work wouldn't be for very long.

They were afraid that Lin Fan would give them six months or a year of treatment, then were they supposed to just stay at home and wait?

Or what if Lin Fan suddenly changes his mind about this event and doesn't attend? Wouldn't all their enthusiasm and other work they had turned down have been for nothing?

But they could wait a few days. With such a short start time, Lin Fan was at ease and so were they!

"Alright, Aunt Sun, you can arrange the rest. I have things to do and I'm quite busy these days. I'll contact you again when the time comes!"

"Okay, I live in Building 4, Room 202. Just come find me when the time comes!"
