Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 319 Difficulties
Later, Zhang Qingfeng added a quality supervision system to ensure the quality of weapons produced by craftsmen.

Then, Zhang Qingfeng even divided the manufacture of firearms into many processes, and each process was manufactured by a special person.

Afterwards, he also adopted the method of factory recording, which increased the efficiency of weapon manufacturing several times.

Working for the imperial court, not only the wages are low, but sometimes they are deducted by the people above.

After Zhang Qingfeng took charge of the Gunpowder Bureau, he didn't deduct any more money, which made many craftsmen see hope.

In the past, they were lazy when they could work for the court, because everyone did more, less, better, or worse, and most people's wages were the same.

Zhang Qingfeng's craftsman rating system first broke this unfair state.

Then, the piecework system has improved the work efficiency of the craftsmen several times, and of course doubled their wages.

In just two months, more than 500 workers have actually done work that usually takes half a year to complete, which shows the benefits of this change.

But in contrast, they also received equal wages.

Three fifth-level workers got 50 taels of silver in two months.

Others almost doubled or tripled their wages.

In the past two months, although everyone felt that the work was a little more tiring than before, everyone was very happy because they made money.

Many people also rejected Zhang Qingfeng's rules at the beginning, but later became very supportive.

By this time, Zhang Qingfeng's prestige in the Gunpowder Bureau had also reached a level that was second to none.

However, the workers in the Gunpowder Bureau made so much money, which naturally caused dissatisfaction among the people in other workshops.

Because they think their skills are no worse than the craftsmen of the Gunpowder Bureau, but the money they get is less than a fraction of the craftsmen of the Gunpowder Bureau.

As a result, many craftsmen began to demand the same wages as the Gunpowder Bureau.

However, when their requests were rejected, many craftsmen began to slack off in their work.

For these passive sabotage people, the eunuch's beating and scolding are of no use at all, because the law does not blame the public.

The negative attitude of the craftsmen slowed down the efficiency of making weapons in the Military Bureau.

"I just said, Zhou Qingfeng can't be allowed to do that. It's fine now, and it's implicated all of us. What can we do now?"

"It's all Zhou Qingfeng's fault. It's okay to mess around with some moths. It's all right now. If this continues, the task will not be completed. How can I explain to the court..."

Many eunuchs complained extremely about Zhang Qingfeng's actions.

But Zhang Qingfeng had Concubine Zheng's support behind him, and they didn't dare to offend them, so they could only curse quietly.

Someone also quietly found Feng Mo and asked Feng Mo to stop what Zhang Qingfeng was doing.

"Feng Zhangyin, please tell Zhou Qingfeng to stop. If he continues like this, we can't manage it anymore. The people under me are making trouble every day. If this continues, the task entrusted by the court will never be completed..."

Regarding this matter, Feng Mo also had a headache.

It stands to reason that Zhou Qingfeng's gunpowder bureau completed half a year's task in two months, which should be a very good thing and should be rewarded.

But what the Gunpowder Bureau did put the entire military war bureau into trouble.

Under such circumstances, he couldn't suppress Zhou Qingfeng. If Zhou Qingfeng suppressed him when Zhou Qingfeng did well, Zhou Qingfeng, as Concubine Zheng's person, would definitely be hated by Concubine Zheng.

Being hated by Concubine Zheng, when Concubine Zheng said something bad in front of Emperor Wanli, he would not even think about being an eunuch in charge of the military battle bureau.

"Zhou Qingfeng did this, why don't you ask him what to do?" Feng Mosi had no choice but to ask Zhang Qingfeng.

Facing a subordinate with a strong background, he can't be too tough.

Soon, Zhang Qingfeng was summoned by Feng Mo to the Yamen of the Bingzheng Bureau.

"Qingfeng, because of the matter of the Gunpowder Bureau, the entire military battle bureau is in conflict. Can you see if there is any way to solve it?" Feng Mo asked Zhang Qingfeng.

His tone was very modest, like an elder who put down his face and asked for advice humbly.

"Palmprint, the solution is actually very simple." Zhang Qingfeng said: "As long as other government offices implement the system of the Gunpowder Bureau."

"This, I'm afraid it's not easy." Hearing what Zhang Qingfeng said, Feng Mo said.

Implementing the Gunpowder Bureau system will harm the interests of many people, and others may not agree.

"Palmprint, you have seen that after the Gunpowder Bureau implemented the system I prescribed, it has done half a year's work in two months." Zhang Qingfeng said: "If the entire Military War Bureau implements such regulations, then the entire Military War Bureau will become very efficient.”

"And this, this is a great achievement. It will also mark your success in managing the military situation. The court will have to mention it to you." Zhang Qingfeng said seductively.

"This..." Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Feng Mo was a little moved.

"Palmprint, even if the official cancels the regulations of the Gunpowder Bureau immediately and returns to the way it was before, things will not calm down, but will only get worse. So instead of doing this, it is better to give it a try. At least this system is in the Gunpowder Bureau. It has been proven feasible." Zhang Qingfeng continued to persuade Feng Mo.

"Okay, then give it a try." After thinking for a while, Feng Mo finally decided to try the system of the Gunpowder Bureau.

The next day, Feng Mo summoned all his eunuchs except Zhang Qingfeng to the yamen of the Bingzheng Bureau.

"Currently, the war bureau is messed up by you. Apart from the Gunpowder Bureau, the efficiency of the government offices under your jurisdiction is getting slower and slower. Let me ask you, can you complete the production of various weapons on time?" Feng Mo Ask all the eunuchs below.

After hearing Feng Mo's words, many of the eunuchs below had expressions of embarrassment.

An old eunuch complained to Feng Mo and said: "Zhangshou, the craftsmen below are very passive in their work, and there is nothing we can do!"

"Hmph, don't you know how to beat the workers for being passive? Kill one or two and see if the others dare to work passively." Feng Mo said with a cold snort.

"It's useless, palm print, I have killed and maimed several people below me. Although they seem to be active on the surface, they are either slow or the things they make are poor. There is no way to deal with the court. I can't beat everyone to death!" A eunuch cried bitterly.

At the beginning, the workers adopted a negative attitude, and they have punished them before, but the workers are not balanced in their hearts, and they will always find ways to resist.

Some people seem to be very active in doing things, and they are so busy that they can't find the north, but at the end of the day, you will find that what they do is not half as good as before.

There are also many people who do not work seriously, and the weapons they make are all defective.

For example, a blacksmith stipulates that a weapon must be hammered a thousand times. Although he has hammered it so many times, the strength will gradually become smaller every time, and outsiders can't see it at all.

In the end, the weapon produced in this way is just a defective product, which is not up to the quality at all.

Moreover, the supervisor cannot keep an eye on every craftsman all the time. As long as they are negligent, these workers can produce a large number of defective products.

In the end, the law does not blame everyone, and these eunuchs have nothing to do. They can't beat everyone to death, can they?
