The punching machine made a monotonous sound. Every time the die under the punch undergoes an impact, a'metal ornament' will break away from the hot steel bar and fall into the collection tank under the machine.
The forging plant in another world has just been constructed, and the production efficiency of the melting furnace is low, and even molten iron cannot be produced. Roughly crafted wind forging machines are full of problems, and they can only process inferior sponge iron into soft wrought iron.
The so-called "pattern steel" can be obtained by superimposing wrought iron and pig iron and then forging. However, the efficiency of this process is very low, far from meeting Zhou Qingfeng's current needs. It is still possible to make large items, but it is very difficult to make small pieces of metalware. and so... ...
In the Nantou Township Machine Repair Factory, the'metal ornaments' dropped from the old-fashioned punching machine look like arrows. After the stamping is completed, this kind of "metal jewelry" will be polished and drilled by workers to form qualified products of the same size.
Zhou Qingfeng would never admit that this was an arrow, and the delivery order clearly stated that it was'metal jewelry'. It is diamond-shaped, sharp-edged, made of steel, very light, and weighs about ten grams. With his carrying capacity, he can take nearly 1,300 sticks every day.
In another world where technology is backward, a thousand arrows are a large number. It is difficult for people to produce such delicate metal parts. Orcs can only use bone to make arrows, and humans also use copper for casting. Punching like a sausage is something you can't even think of.
At the Nantou Township Machine Repair Factory, which is technologically backward, the old punching machine can punch thousands of'metal accessories' every day. Fully meet Zhou Qingfeng's needs. These products will be transported to other worlds, and the wooden arrow shaft is a good arrow.
The production of'metal jewelry' is just a small task for this small rural factory, and its main job now is actually maintenance. "Machine repair" factory, meaning mechanical repair.
Zhou Qingfeng was driven to the shelves by ducks. Originally, he wanted to study the'indigenous steelmaking', but he abruptly contracted the only manufacturing company in Nantou Township.
Of the 37 people in the factory, only 13 work. Others are eating idle meals. The factory still owed a bad debt, as high as hundreds of thousands.
This rotten factory is the biggest burden in the whole township. The township has long wanted to kick it out, but it has never been able to find a "receiver". After inspecting the factory's debt and asset situation, Zhou Qingfeng flatly refused to be the victim.
However, Zhou Qingfeng re-exported to express that he was willing to rent the workshop and equipment of the machine repair factory, and hire employees separately to set up a new machine factory—don't come to me for troubles in the past, I just need to open a new stove.
The township was happy, and simply let the original machinery repair factory go bankrupt and agreed to Zhou Qingfeng's reorganization request-as long as it is good to settle some workers and pay some profits and taxes, it will save them from making trouble all day.
Although this machine repair shop was broken, it was much stronger than Zhou Qingfeng's forging field in another world. He set up a company, "Shengguang Machinery", with all the formalities. On the day he took over, he re-employed more than 20 people from the original factory.
That's right, Zhou Qingfeng also hired a few more people, with monthly salaries ranging from fifty to one hundred and fifty. He became a manufacturing giant in Nantou Township in one fell swoop, and was recognized as the richest man. The employees hired by the company are quite proud of this and proud of it.
After getting to know the machine repair factory in depth, Zhou Qingfeng discovered that the collective enterprise in this village is "a bad boat has three catties." It has no cash on its books and only debts, but there are actually several warehouses in the township. Not to mention the large area of the warehouses, there is a lot of tattered inside.
In addition to processing the arrow-shaped'metal jewelry' designated by Zhou Qingfeng, he put the creation of benefits first on the day of the establishment of the company-young and old, don't sit idle and start working.
The machine repair shop, the focus is actually on the repair of agricultural machinery.
Why did the original factory decline? Zhou Qingfeng didn't care about it either. Anyway, it's all about eating inside and out, shit, nothing new at all. There were too many similar situations in the 1990s, and there were too many disharmony talks.
After the establishment of the new factory, Zhou Qingfeng did not give'Shengguang Machinery' any special preferential treatment. He just stripped off the original burden, and injected more than 10,000 yuan of funds, cashed out suppliers, and paid a settlement allowance to employees, so that everyone had a rush.
All the equipment to be repaired accumulated in the warehouse of the original machine repair shop was turned over, ranging from farmland pumps to medium to vehicle engines, to large grid transformers, everything messed up.
For minor problems, Zhou Qingfeng used the repair technique to get it right. Ten water pumps were sent to several villages that day, all of which were used for irrigation of farmland. If the structure of a large piece of equipment is damaged, the factory master and the apprentice need to manually process the parts to replace it.
In fact, the work accumulated in the past few years, two to three hundred pieces of equipment to be repaired, was completed in only half a month by more than twenty employees. Simply repairing a transformer will restore normal power supply to the power grids of the two villages in the township-the increase in GDP for this will be counted on Zhou Qingfeng's head.
In the past, the Nantou Township Machinery Repair Factory was reduced to the point where it could only build farm tools such as sickles and hoes. It's still those people, still those broken equipment, but somehow they can really do some work.
Repairing a tractor can immediately greatly reduce the labor intensity in farming and increase labor efficiency by more than ten times. Who doesn't want good equipment? It's just that the old machine repair factory has been tossed and abandoned, dragging down agricultural production in the village.
After "Shengguang Machinery" proved its ability to work, dozens of villages across the township immediately sent hundreds of agricultural machinery that needed repairs.
This is the real value creation and the growth of GDP, which made Zhou Qingfeng a little bit gratified. The funds he obtained from selling the "future garbage" finally came in handy-this is called investment to stimulate economic growth.
Dr. Yu from the township health clinic was working early in the morning, and he saw a long line on the street at the door, all of which were machines to be repaired from various villages brought in by pallet tricycle tractors. The streets are noisy, it hasn't been so lively for a long time.
Doctor Yu glanced curiously, and found that Zhou Qingfeng's repair shop was still open. Two advertisements with jokes on the door were put out again. A bunch of kids and idle guys who don't go to school squatted at the door, waiting for the TV to move out to play videos.
"Xiao Zhou, your factory is full of people. Why are you still thinking about opening a shop here?" Dr. Yu hurried over and saw a box of "Star Wars" video tapes on the big color TV-oh, this is good The film is not to be missed.
Zhou Qingfeng was plugging in the video recorder, and said without looking back, "I recently bought another batch of knitwear for export for domestic sales. Brother, would you like to buy a few? The price is absolutely cheap."
At the door of the Wuming repair shop, there are a few clothes that are quite trendy in styles and colors, most of which are favorites of young people. Doctor Yu glanced at him but didn't care too much. He grabbed Zhou Qingfeng's hand and asked eagerly: "You have opened the factory, so what shop do you care about?"
"I don't know how to repair machinery. Why do I go to the factory to make trouble?" Zhou Qingfeng also raised the video tape in Yang's hand and shouted with the people: "Today I watched the American Hollywood blockbuster "Star Wars". Exciting."
A bunch of children idlers followed, all waiting happily.
Doctor Yu is more anxious than Zhou Qingfeng, "You are the owner of a factory, and the leader of more than 20 employees, how can you not go to the factory and stare at it?"
"I do performance wages." Zhou Qingfeng lazily said: "A piece of equipment to be repaired is inspected from entering the factory to being delivered out of the factory, and everyone who handles it needs to sign and confirm. It is the loss or the profit that depends on the employees themselves. Try hard or not. Why should I stare? Can I stare?"
This seems to make sense, but Doctor Yu still feels something is wrong. It takes him more than a month to accumulate contacts, open up relationships, and invest a lot of money to open a factory, which is definitely staring at him 24 hours a day from morning to night.
Press the power of the video recorder, and "Star Wars" begins to show. Along with the magnificent Star Wars March, countless stars are embellished, the vast universe is presented, and the fierce war kicks off in front of the audience.
Zhou Qingfeng shot a big color TV and sighed and said: "It's not that I don't want to manage, but I can't. I have to pay attention to the overall situation and grasp the right direction. It is enough to leave the matter to the employees. It will be exhausting to do everything by yourself."
