"Even if they only take this one order, it will take them two days at most. If they work overtime the first evening, they can deliver the goods by the second afternoon. Four hundred yuan isn't a small amount, is it? That's two hundred yuan a day! Isn't that enough?"
"You're a carpenter yourself, so you can estimate it. Set a price for them that allows them to earn about two hundred yuan a day. That should be fine, right? For a bulk order, they wouldn't earn more than that anyway, would they?"
"If that really doesn't work, have them switch to working by the hour for a while and offer them a higher wage."
"If we make them work by the hour, they'll be even less willing. Even if we pay a bit more, it can't exceed one hundred yuan a day, can it? With overtime, that's only one hundred and fifty yuan a day! They'd feel it's an even worse deal," Yi Xiaoman said.
