Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 52 Division of Labor
Now there are more and more tasks to install antennas. In addition, since yesterday morning, someone has found Duan Yun and asked him to come to repair the electrical appliances.

Although he lived a lot, Duan Yun didn't feel much pressure, because Cao Dong's joining made him a lot easier.

Now that Duan Yun and Cao Dong have a clear division of labor, Duan Yun has given Cao Dong a key to the rental house. Cao Dong wakes up very early every day and goes to the rental house to assemble after having breakfast at the roadside stall. The part of the antenna rack, and it has been able to independently install the antenna at the door.

On the other hand, Duan Yun made up his sleep in the morning and went to the rental house after eating at noon. When there was an electrical repair business, he would ride a bicycle to provide service. After all, Cao Dong had no electrical repair skills, so Duan Yun could only go out in person.

When there is no business, he will stay in the rental house and continue to make antenna amplifiers, constantly hoarding goods, and already have some tacit understanding with Cao Dong in the division of labor.

Business is not every day, Cao Dong is a person who can't be idle. After the work at hand is finished, he cleans up the room. This also allows Duan Yun to have a good working environment and feel a lot more comfortable.

In addition, in order to solve the problem of eating in the evening, my sister Duan Fang prepared two meals for my brother and Cao Dongduo. They usually put them in the lunch box to keep warm and wrapped them in old cotton jackets and sent them to my brother's rental house, which completely solved the problem of Duan Yun and Cao Dongduo. East dinner question.

"elder brother!"

Seeing Duan Yun riding a bicycle outside the rental house, Cao Dong, who was spraying the cleaned ground with a basin of water, immediately greeted him.

"It's very early." Duan Yun slammed the car at the door, patted Cao Dong's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Come in and talk to you about something."

"Hey." Cao Dong responded and followed Duan Yun into the rental house.

"There are three households who want to install antennas today, and the addresses are all written. It's better to finish them today." Duan Yun said, took out the note that Li Yun's mother gave him before, and continued: " Also, pay attention to safety while working.”

"Understood, brother, I will bring all the guys." Cao Dong heard the words, picked up a coiled safety rope from the corner and shook it in front of Duan Yun.

"Well, very good." Duan Yun nodded with satisfaction, then turned his attention to the assembled antenna racks in the corner, and said, "After I left last night, how many antennas have you assembled?"

"Now we have a total of 53 antenna racks in stock, but the aluminum tubes and angle irons are almost used up, and we need to buy some more soon..."

"No, these stocks have been enough for us to use for a while, and there is almost no place to buy materials." Duan Yun pondered for a while, and then said: "I still have a job I want to give you, I don't know what you want. Don't want to do it?"

"Brother, just tell me what you want me to do, don't be so polite."

"Haha." Duan Yun smiled when he heard the words, and then said: "Actually, I want you to take our antenna and go to the Mining Bureau or other factories to promote our products..."

"Brother, let me go outside to advertise that our antenna is fine. This thing is indeed a good thing, but I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it..." Cao Dong said with an embarrassed expression.

Cao Dong now also knows that Duan Yun’s antenna sells for more than 70 yuan. Frankly speaking, he feels that the price is a bit too high. If it weren’t for the related households brought by Li Yun’s mother, could the antenna be sold at this price? Going out is still unknown.

"There are some things you haven't worked hard to do, so don't say you can't." Duan Yun raised his brows and continued, "Let me tell you the truth. Before the Li family helped me sell antennas for 70 yuan each, I gave the cost price. Sixty, they can earn ten yuan, but if you are willing to take the initiative to go to other factories to sell, I only charge 50 yuan for a set of antennas, which is almost my cost price. As for how much you can earn, it all depends on you If you sell it for sixty, you will earn ten yuan, and if you sell it for seventy, you will earn twenty!"

In fact, Duan Yun has long planned to go to other industrial and mining enterprises to promote his antenna. After all, Jiuxiang is also afraid of deep alleys, but because of his work in the unit, he really can't spare much time to go elsewhere except on Sundays and holidays. publicity.

But now Duan Yun's antenna business is far from being in short supply, and there is not much work that can be handed over to Cao Dong at ordinary times. Instead of letting him idle the rest of the time, it is better to let him go to other industrial and mining factories instead of himself. Turn around and see if you can find a new user buyer for your antenna.

Moreover, Duan Yun doesn't like the management model that is like a state-owned factory earning dead wages. As long as he can make a large profit, it is completely feasible to allocate a part of the profit to mobilize Cao Dong's enthusiasm.

"Okay! I'll do it!" Cao Dong's eyes lit up when he heard that.

Cao Dong is actually a man with a good brain. Although Duan Yun's antenna is expensive, it is indeed a good product. Before, he and Duan Yun went to other people's homes to install it, and no one did not praise the magic of this antenna.

In addition, the profit margin Duan Yun gave him is not small, especially in the Mining Bureau, where the income of ordinary employees is definitely only higher than that of the Red Star Gear Factory. If you only need to sell four or five sets, you will earn more money than ordinary workers who work in the factory!
"But I want to make it clear, no matter how many antenna business you receive outside, the work on my side must be done first. This factory is the base for us. After people hand over the money to me, they want to do it right away. Enjoy our products, and our electrical repairs mainly earn money from users in our factory area, reputation and word of mouth are very important, you have to be able to distinguish between primary and secondary..." Duan Yun said seriously.

"I understand, I promise not to delay things on your side, Brother Duan!" Cao Dong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Okay, after assembling and installing the antenna, you can arrange the rest of the time yourself." Duan Yun was satisfied with Cao Dong's attitude, got up and said, "Then you can do it yourself, I'll go back to sleep first."

After Duan Yun finished speaking, he turned and left the rental house.

……

Just when Duan Yun went home to sleep in the morning, Wang Qiang, the workshop director who was on the morning shift, went around the workshop and returned to his office.

Sitting down at his desk, Wang Qiang picked up the "Reference Daily" on the table and read it.

This kind of newspaper is not publicly distributed and subscribed these days, and Wang Qiang, a party member and workshop director, is qualified to read this kind of "internal reference" internal newspaper.

In fact, Wang Qiang himself does not have a strong sense of politics, and sometimes reading newspapers is just a relaxing pastime.

But a piece of news in the paper today caught his attention.

The headline of the news was 'The State Council Issues Regulations on Rationalization Suggestions and Technical Improvement Incentives'.

The news also listed specific reward rules for this new regulation:

Award Level - Annual Savings or Value Creation - Award Amount - Honorable Mention

1. Certificates of 100-2500 yuan above 4000 million yuan

2.50-100 million yuan 1500-2500 yuan certificate

3.10-50 million yuan 500-1500 yuan certificate

4.1-10 yuan, 300-500 yuan for praise

5.1 yuan or less, 300 yuan or less praise

Seeing this, Wang Qiang couldn't help shaking his head. In his opinion, it is very difficult to improve technology in a gear factory, not to mention getting the first, second and third prizes, even if you want to achieve the fourth prize with a creation value of more than 1 yuan. Unimaginable things...
