Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

"What? Ten times the output?"

Li Huaide was stunned. Although the steel previously provided to the automobile factory was not much for the steel rolling mill.

However, increasing it tenfold is impossible for steel mills.

Li Huaide’s first reaction was disbelief.

“How many trucks can your car factory produce in a month? Do you need us to provide ten times as much steel?

Deputy Director Yang, please don’t speak carelessly. Once our steel rolling mill produces the steel.

Your car factories cannot use up all the steel, which leads to a backlog of steel. You must be held responsible."

Without waiting for Yang Yunfei to speak, Zhang Weiguang said impatiently.

"Can you ask about production? This is a military secret.

Just provide as much as you are asked to provide. Even if it is more, it will be used up sooner or later.

At least having more is better than having less. At worst, you can just keep it in the warehouse for a few more days.

If there are fewer, the work will be stopped. The army has a plan for the destination of each truck.

If the military operation is delayed, the responsibility will be even greater."

For Zhang Weiguang, a military watchmaker, completing the task with quality and quantity is the most important thing.

Just keep the production going and produce the trucks as planned.

As for the excess steel? It's a lot, because the army wants all the trucks produced by the automobile factory in recent years.

Even if the army has enough trucks, there will still be demand locally.

Zhang Weiguang also heard that the automobile factory is about to develop a new engine.

The new car does not have off-road capabilities and has higher requirements for roads, but its load capacity has also been increased to four to five tons.

The army also needs this type of truck, so how can they have too much steel?

Li Huaide was a little helpless. If Chen Changan was here, he would still have room for bargaining.

But when facing Zhang Weiguang, Li Huaide didn't know how to talk to him.

"Okay, ten times as much, at worst our car factory will also start operating in three shifts.

If you cannot complete the steel production task for subsequent pickup trucks, please do not blame our steel mill.”

Li Huaide’s idea was very simple. There were only so many people in the steel rolling mill and the output was also limited.

We can see that the automobile factory is constantly expanding in scale and its output is increasing.

The steel rolling mill, as the unit that supplies steel to automobile factories, has remained unchanged.

He must take this opportunity to go to the ministry and ask for some benefits.

Their steel rolling mills are currently several levels lower than their automobile factories.

Once the number of workers in a steel rolling mill increases, the level of the factory will naturally rise.

Even if the level is not upgraded, just allow the steel rolling mill to recruit workers independently like the automobile factories did before.

Considering the scale of a steel rolling mill with tens of thousands of employees, a temporary worker position can be sold for a lot of money.

Of course, if I could exchange the temporary worker position for some money, the level of the steel mill would also be improved.

This is a good thing that can bring both fame and fortune. Li Huaide needs to think about it carefully.

If necessary, you have to go to your father-in-law to see if it can be done.

Zhang Weiguang doesn't care whether the pickup truck can complete its mission.

Since they cannot get any foreign exchange, this is not a problem he needs to consider.

The troops only need trucks, and as for the issue of pickup trucks, naturally, those with vested interests will be concerned about it.

"You don't need to worry about that. Just supply the new steel needed for the trucks."

Zhang Weiguang has already notified the steel mill, and now it all depends on what the steel mill does.

If he can do it, that's fine. If he can't, he will find another way to punish Li Huaide.

The purchase of this batch of trucks was related to his father's mission. Otherwise, why would he send his own son here?

Zhang Weiguang and Yang Yunfei went back, and Li Huaide also had to take action.

Li Huaide is not clear about the specific production details.

Although Li Huaide himself did not understand technology, he knew how to use people. When he returned to the office, he immediately called the deputy factory director in charge of production.

After careful inquiry, it was found that it would be impossible to complete the task without working in three shifts.

And it will definitely have an impact on the material production of pickup trucks.

After understanding the specific situation, he went to his father-in-law's house immediately after work.

After listening to Yang Yunfei's report, Chen Changan didn't care.

Just focus on production. As for Yang Yunfei's false reporting of production, Chen Changan didn't take it seriously.

Once the two new machinery factories in the ministry are completed, this output may be used by the automobile factory.

Early the next morning, Li Huaide hurried to the department.

For Li Huaide, working in three shifts to produce new steel will also have an impact on the steel used in pickup trucks.

It is impossible not to report such things, if I really don't ask for instructions or report them.

If he makes a decision on his own and it affects the export of pickup trucks, he will definitely not be able to bear the consequences.

After anxiously waiting for two hours, Li Huaide finally met Uncle Nie.

After Li Huaide recounted what Zhang Weiguang and Yang Yunfei said at the gate of the steel mill, he also recounted the difficulties of the steel mill.

The three-shift system and the food problems of the workers have affected the production of pickup trucks. Should the number of workers be increased?

Shouldn't the workers' welfare benefits also be improved? After all, the steel mill should account for a share of the foreign exchange earnings from pickup trucks.

"Did the military representative really say that? To increase the output of new steel products at your steel mill tenfold?

Your steel mill is a large factory with 10,000 employees. You can't even produce enough steel to supply two models? You still need to increase the number of workers?

You just mentioned 3,000 new workers. You are quite arrogant."

Li Huaide suddenly felt aggrieved.

"Leader Nie, you don't know. The tone of the military representative shows that he doesn't care about the production of pickup trucks at all.

All he had in mind was trucks, and the car factory was about to develop a new engine.

Trucks with a larger load capacity will soon be developed, and by then the output of steel will be even greater.

These 3,000 new workers may seem like a lot, but they are all novices.

It takes time to train people to become skilled workers.

It is better to train them all at once. When automobile factories have new models in the future, they will definitely continue to increase their requirements for steel.

Our steel rolling mill cannot recruit workers at that time, so we have to train new ones.

Our steel mill can’t handle this situation every time.”

Uncle Nie also nodded, agreeing with Li Huaide's statement.

Instead of recruiting workers passively again and again, it is better to recruit all the staff at once.

I'll call Chen Changan first to find out what's going on.

At this time, Chen Changan was receiving Director Li in the office.

For frame structures, after the roof is sealed, the next steps are wall construction, plastering, and whitewashing. Some of these jobs can also be done by temporary workers.

These temporary workers are not considered newbies, but the company has requirements on the number of regular workers.

The construction team is progressing very quickly, and half of the residential areas have been completed.

Director Li came this time to discuss the handover of the residential area with Chen Changan.
