The weaving wage is based on the value of the yarn: for linen and silk it is one-and-a-half times the yarn value; for leaf-fibre cloth, woollen cloth/blankets, and fine cloth it is twice the yarn value.
It standardizes compensation against input cost and complexity, reducing disputes and limiting scope for hidden markups.
