Li Xianyun addressed the crowd, explaining the reason for recruitment, the qualifications required, and the daily wages. She asked them to consider, and if they were interested, to line up to register.
The registration process was also a screening process to check if the applicants met the criteria.
Li Xianyun made it clear in advance that all who qualified would have a one-day trial, which was paid, but those whose weaving and cotton spinning skills did not meet the standard would not be employed.
Even if they passed the trial day, if they were found to be deceitful or lazy, they would be dismissed.
In addition to recruiting women for weaving and spinning cotton, Li Xianyun also stated that they were looking for men to transport goods and do miscellaneous tasks. These men also needed to have good character and be hardworking and able to endure hardships.
