Fengxian Jiangshan

"Incentives are more effective than punishment. Start with the Fengtian Machinery Bureau and take the first step towards change." Zhang Tinglan came to the Machinery Bureau and already alarmed the people inside. Liu Tongguang, who was in charge of the Fengtian Machinery Bureau, hurried out.

Seeing Zhang Tinglan, he hurriedly said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, you are coming, why don't you let me know in advance, so I can welcome you!"

Liu Tongguang's face was full of smiles. This guy had heard that Zhang Tinglan was a big celebrity in front of Zhang Zuolin's eyes. He held a high position at a young age. This was a task that he could not afford to offend.

"President Liu, have you received the order from Governor Zhang?"

"I got it, I got it, I'm waiting for you to come over, I'm making up my mind!"

Zhang Tinglan nodded, and then said: "Fengtian Machinery Bureau will carry out a thorough reform, separate a special mint, and the mint will be directly under the management of the military, so you don't want to interfere. In addition, the remaining machines and employees will be reorganized Let’s form the Fengtian Arms Factory, which will be responsible for the production and maintenance of arms in the future!”

Fengtian Machine Bureau was in charge of manufacturing Dayang and copper coins since the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Tinglan believed that minting work should be separated from military industry. Therefore, he unified the function of printing banknotes of the official bank and the function of making Dayang in the Machinery Bureau, and set up a special Fengtian Bureau. The mint is directly militarized.

As for the remaining machines and workers, full-time production of arms, this plan has long been supported by Zhang Zuolin, and it is imperative.But after Liu Tongguang heard it, the smile on his face became a little embarrassed. Everyone knew that this kind of reform was a reshuffling of the cards, and the benefits would be redistributed. What should the general office of his factory do?

Zhang Tinglan also saw his thoughts, but he didn't care at all. The arsenal was the lifeline of the Feng Faction warlords, and it had to be taken care of, no matter how many people they offended, it was worth it.Zhang Zuolin also knew the importance of the arsenal, so he specially asked Zhang Tinglan to help build the framework of the arsenal.

These days, Zhang Tinglan is also thinking about how to reform, how to make the arsenal play a role as soon as possible, and provide Fengjun with a steady stream of munitions and supplies.Now that there are available talents in hand, Zhang Tinglan immediately decided to make drastic reforms and build up the factory.

Moreover, the machines ordered from the United States are about to be shipped to Fengtian, and soon there will be gun stocks and bullet clips for the Americans. If the production work is not straightened out, nothing can be done.

"President Liu, go and call all the workers over, I have something to say to them."

Liu Tongguang did not dare not to listen, and soon the courtyard was full of people, a total of seven No. middle.

Zhang Tinglan first asked Xiong Mengyuan to put the young worker in front of everyone. Several people who knew this child felt a little heartbroken when they saw him being beaten like this. Is there anyone who hasn't been beaten?

"Everyone, when I came here, I saw him hanging at the gate and beating him fiercely. Today, I will explain the matter clearly in front of everyone and see who is right!"

The foreman also felt something was wrong at this time, his legs were trembling unceasingly, and reluctantly said: "For many years, the villain has devoted himself to doing his best, and he dare not slack off in the slightest. It is also the rule for many years to punish them. The villain asked himself that he did nothing wrong. what!"

The little worker also woke up slowly at this time, struggling and said: "Sir, I will work hard, please don't drive me away, I still have younger brothers and sisters to take care of at home!"

"Don't be afraid. Explain the matter slowly." Kuang Rongguang is older and more experienced in dealing with young people.He asked in a gentle tone.

"Old man. My name is Xiao Chun'er. Either I don't work hard, or I have to process the gun stock and polish the hardwood in the past two days. If I can't eat enough, I will have no strength. If I can't finish the prescribed amount, I will be beaten frequently."

Zhang Tinglan got the work of making gun stocks from the Americans. Although the American machines had not yet been fully shipped, it was to let them get acquainted with the process.Also started production of butts ahead of schedule.

"You're young, it's okay to go hungry. Where does your wages go? Isn't it enough to buy food?"

Xiao Chun'er was asked about the sad place, with tears rolling in her eyes, she said in a low voice: "Old man, I am an apprentice, and my salary is only half of my salary, and I have to give half to Foreman Sun, and I have to pay the rest of the money." Send some at home, or the family will starve to death!"

Hearing that the big guys have figured out what's going on here, Zhang Tinglan glanced at the people present: "Everyone heard it, I believe that Xiao Chun'er's situation is not uncommon, the big guys work hard, and most of the wages will be lost In the hands of these foremen, I can’t even support my family. Perhaps, as this Foreman Sun said, it has been like this for all these years. But I want to tell you that this is very unreasonable. You have to work hard to get enough As a reward, at least you will have enough to eat and warm clothes, so that your family members will not have to suffer from hunger!"

Talking about other things is empty, and what can move these workers the most is real benefits, so everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully to Zhang Tinglan's words.

"The Machinery Bureau will soon be reorganized into the Fengtian Arsenal, which will be responsible for repairing guns and producing weapons and ammunition. The management model of the new factory will also be changed. In the future, there will be no foremen who oppress everyone. Your wages will increase, and I will be in the bank. Arrange a special account for you, and you can go directly to the bank to withdraw your wages, without worrying that anyone will deduct it!"

After Zhang Tinglan finished speaking a few words, everyone was boiling over. This was simply pie in the sky, so everyone talked about it.Liu Tongguang's complexion was getting worse and worse, he coughed and said, "Head Zhang, let me say something inappropriate, you can't patronize being a good person and doing good deeds, if you do this, who will work hard for these workers?" Ah, if the task cannot be completed by then, no one will be able to explain it!"

"President Liu, don't worry, our salary will be divided into two parts in the future, one part is the basic salary, and the other part is the bonus. Everyone can get the basic salary as long as they complete the prescribed amount. As for the bonus, it depends on everyone's ability. The more quantity you complete and the better the quality, the more bonuses you will get. To put it simply, more work pays more. If someone can't even complete the basic number, as long as it reaches three months, he will be fired directly. I believe that the wages in the arsenal will make countless people salivate, if you don’t work hard, outsiders will take your jobs!"

Both Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming were listening carefully. They were very familiar with Western companies and adopted piece-rate wages. The more you work, the more you get. It is determined entirely by the amount of labor, which seems a bit unreasonable.And Zhang Tinglan divides wages into two parts, basic wages and bonuses, which can not only ensure a certain degree of fairness, but also encourage workers to work hard, achieving the best of both worlds.

Management is a profound knowledge. How to design a suitable management system is a test of the wisdom of a manager. Zhang Tinglan handles the weight lightly and has a good idea of ​​the plan. They immediately admire this young man.

No wonder Kuang Rongguang is willing to go to Fengtian, and following such a person can enable them to realize their ideal of serving the country.

Zhang Tinglan continued: "Soon we will produce rifle parts for the United States. Before that, we have to formulate specific management evaluation methods and work out the process. Everyone will have to work harder. I will announce two decisions first. One is to pay an extra two months’ wages, so that everyone can solve the difficulties at home first. The second is that from now on, the arsenal will provide free lunches, and everyone can eat whatever they want.”

After Zhang Tinglan announced the two benefits, all the workers present cheered, and they were happier than New Year's Eve. However, the faces of Foreman Sun and the others turned green, which also meant that they lost their chance to suck blood forever.

As soon as the new official took office, Zhang Tinglan announced the reform plan, which improved the treatment of workers, and immediately won the hearts of the bottom people. In this way, the management of Liu Tongguang and others were isolated. Substitution is also easier.

Then Zhang Tinglan, Kuang Rongguang and others checked the situation of the machine bureau again, and they shook their heads more and more.

Chapter 1: Here Comes Feng Delin

To make a factory more efficient, we must start from two aspects, one is the workers, and the other is the machines.Zhang Tinglan proposed a new management system and promised a substantial increase in wages, which greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of workers.

In the past, the foreman punished the laggards, but now it has become a reward priority. The former completely treats people as animals, while the latter makes full use of human nature, and everyone is eager to earn more.I'm afraid that in the future, workers will work harder, produce more goods, and sweat more, but they will enjoy it.

"Humble words, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. It is good to solve the workers' problems, but the factory's machinery is too backward, and must be innovated!"

Kuang Rongguang frowned when inspecting the factory, and Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming seemed to have eaten bitter melon.The machines of the Fengtian Machine Bureau were originally procured by Shengjing General Yi Ketanga. The original plan was to produce arms, but after they were completed, they could only produce silver dollars.

These machines are all steam-powered, and the crude benzene is huge. Compared with the mainstream electric equipment in the world at that time, they are seriously behind, and they have been used for nearly 20 years, and the maintenance effect is also very bad. word description.

"The road is blue, and starting a business is difficult. We are not afraid of how difficult it is!" Chen Qiming said with a serious expression: "It's okay for factories to start at a low level. Many large companies in the United States also started from small workshops. The most important factor is people. There must be good managers and enough talents, so that it will definitely be able to develop.”

"That's right." Xiong Mengyuan also said loudly: "When we come back from overseas, we just want to serve the country. If we want to enjoy happiness, we won't come back from abroad!"

"It's best if you two are ambitious, I can tell you. These difficulties are temporary. The British agreed to build a power plant some time ago, and it's almost done. In addition, I ordered a batch of machines and generators from the United States. It will soon enter the electrical age. As for talents? For the time being, there will be a group of Russian technicians working in Fengtian. I stared at every operation process!"

Kuang Rongguang knew that Zhang Tinglan's affairs were tight-knit, and looking at it now, he really thought carefully.Another power plant, another machine, and Russian technicians, all of these added up, and the shelf of Fengtian Arsenal was set up.

"Mr. Zhang. Now that everything has been arranged so thoroughly, what are we going to do now? Produce guns. Or explosives?"

"Brother Xiong, you are too impatient." Zhang Tinglan said with a wry smile, "I negotiated an agreement with the Americans. We will be responsible for the production of gun stocks and magazines, and then ship them to the United States for assembly. For the time being, we will do this first."

"This is too far from making guns!"

"Finally, we are close to guns." Chen Qiming said with a smile: "First make gun stocks, and after you get some money, you can continue to buy machines, just like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and sooner or later the factory will be perfected. stand up."

Chen Qiming is obviously very motivated.Zhang Tinglan is also very satisfied. What he needs is such a young man who is not deeply involved in the world and is full of drive. The initial stage of the arsenal is bound to be very difficult. Without perseverance, he will not be able to persist.

"To tell you the truth, I have enough funds in my hands to buy several production lines, even chemical plants, and steel plants!"

"Then why don't you buy it?" Xiong Mengyuan blurted out, obviously he still doesn't understand Fengtian's current situation.

"Brother Xiong, the big powers don't want to see China grow stronger. Many key technologies and equipment cannot be sold to us, and there are Japanese wolves staring at them. They have long regarded Fengtian as a future colony and managed it. The squadron is not allowed to grow stronger. Maybe they can tolerate the production of some gun stocks now. If they can produce rifles, the Japanese will definitely intervene. They will try their best to control the factory in their own hands!"

This is the case with the Fengtian Arsenal in history. There are a large number of Japanese technicians active in the factory. These people are called to help, but in fact they limit surveillance and even destroy.They control the key technologies, control the direction of development, do everything possible to prevent Fengtian Arsenal from developing independently, and put everything under the control of the Japanese.In history, the Fengtian Armory was the largest in the country, but it was a castle on the beach. It did not have enough foundations, and it did not make the Fengjun really strong. In the end, the arsenal fell into the hands of the Japanese and became a warlord for invading China. accomplice.

When Zhang Tinglan established the arsenal, he had already thought of preventing the infiltration of Japanese forces as much as possible.Our ancestors taught us long ago that the sharp weapon of the country should not be shown to others.The core technology of Fengtian Arsenal must not be known to the Japanese with ulterior motives.

"Mr. Zhang, then we can't keep producing gun stocks instead of rifles just because we are afraid of the Japanese?" Chen Qiming asked with some doubts.

"Of course not, the production of gun stocks is just a cover." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Whether it's buying, stealing, or even robbing, I can always get some. After the arsenal takes shape, the position of Dudu Zhang If we sit firmly, we will have enough power to deal with the Japanese. At that time, we will build and expand in an open and honest manner, and I believe that Fengtian Armory will soon become the largest factory in China!"

"That's great!" Xiong Mengyuan waved his fist excitedly: "Since Mr. Zhang has a clear plan, then we don't have to think too much. Qi Ming and I just work, and you can assign any tasks to us." !"

"My preliminary plan is to divide the arsenal into three production workshops. The first is responsible for firearms, the second is responsible for explosives, and the third is responsible for maintenance. Currently, the task of producing gun stocks is mainly placed in the first workshop. Brother Xiong will be in charge temporarily. The explosives workshop is handed over to Brother Chen. The third workshop is called the maintenance workshop, but the task is the most important, to allow workers to understand the structure of the rifle through disassembly and assembly, and strive to make more parts by themselves."

"Zhuo Yan's idea is very good." Kuang Rongguang also said with a smile: "Sooner or later, we will make our own rifles. It is necessary to start researching now. Let's learn from each other's strengths!"

"Mr. Kuang, it's not just that. The more parts we can manufacture, the more orders we can get from the United States. Now we are making gun stocks, the next step is to make bayonets, gun bolts, and bullets. Take out ants to eat The strength of the bones, small steps and fast running, soon we will be able to make our own weapons, and the Fengjun will have the capital to deal with the Japanese."
