Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 217 Paying Salary

Ten days later, when Mike came to the factory after training again, the place had changed a lot.

Dozens of wizards are scattered and busy in the huge factory building. They are in groups of five, staying in different positions, and are responsible for the different production steps of the Dolphin Magic Drink.Compared with the huge factory building, the assembly line and scattered workers are obviously very small, which also makes the factory very empty.

The factory had already been built 8 days ago. Speaking of which, Mike had to praise the wizard construction team. The efficiency was simply invincible.

On the second day after the factory was established, Mike asked the Weasley brothers to bring the employees they had recruited into the factory, and after signing the magic contracts one by one, the production of Dolphin Magic Drink began.

It is worth mentioning that the contract that Mike made these employees sign has an additional confidentiality contract besides the basic labor contract. To compensate 'Los Santos No Liability Infinite Magic Company' 10 Galleons.

The huge compensation of 10 Galleons scared away many people, but more people still signed without hesitation.Because the fundamental reason they come here is just to find a job.

Thanks to this non-disclosure contract, the operation of this factory is not as troublesome as Mike and the others in school. Instead, it has been directly made into an open assembly line, and the efficiency has been greatly improved.

In addition, Mike and the Weasley brothers also designed the shift of the factory into three shifts after discussion, that is, the remaining more than 100 people were divided into three groups, corresponding to three different time periods to maintain the factory 24 hours non-stop working status.

Yes, you heard that right, work three shifts in three groups.

In other words, these workers have to work seven days a week without a day off.

The workers complained about this at the beginning, but after hearing the basic salary of 30 Galleons plus food and housing, the complaints disappeared.

Even though these thirty gold Galleons may not be many per month, even these Muggle-born wizards can find them outside, but it's the same with food and lodging. This system will undoubtedly save them a lot of money overhead.

That is to say, these people can have savings.

As for deposits, the temptation is huge for a person who has to spend all his salary every month or even make ends meet.

Mike walked in the factory building, inspecting the hard work of the employees of 'Los Santos No Responsibility Infinite Magic Company'.Contrary to Mike's expectations, those employees didn't have much reaction to the arrival of his big boss. Most of them pretended not to see it and just immersed themselves in processing the raw materials.Even a few employees who were more troubled just nodded to Mike slightly, which was regarded as a greeting.

Mike didn't feel any dissatisfaction with this, but nodded with satisfaction, because it happened to prove that these employees are working hard.

In fact, these employees also had to work hard, because their wages were directly linked to the amount of work they completed, which is the so-called piece rate.

The piecework method means that the more you do, the more you earn. It is because of this rule that these employees work as hard as they can.

According to calculations by George, who is the temporary accountant, the employee who worked the hardest and earned the most this week earned a weekly salary of 12 Galleons, of which 5 Galleons were piecework bonuses.

If this model worker can still maintain this efficiency in the next few weeks, his monthly salary will reach about 50 Galleons, which is already on par with the low-level clerks of the Ministry of Magic.

This is usually something that Muggle-born wizards who are not strong enough to have a good job can't even think about it.

However, what they didn't know was that the salary standard set by Mike and the Weasley brothers from the beginning was actually 50 Galleons per month.

That is to say, the so-called piecework bonus is actually what Mike and the Weasley brothers took from the original wages of these employees. The purpose is to make these employees become unemotional tool people and work hard.

As for some employees, what if the work efficiency is unfathomable and the piece bonus far exceeds the level of 20 Galleons?
Just kidding, the more they do the more Mike earns as the boss!Mike wished that everyone in the factory could receive a monthly salary far exceeding 50 Galleons, so that he could earn more money!
Of course, Mike is not a devil, he would not dare to do those bad things in the black factory in his previous life.

For example, if your piecework bonus is against the sky this month, then Mike will definitely not do such a thing as I lower your unit price next month.And he also strictly prohibited the Weasley brothers from doing this, because it was an extremely degrading behavior.

The purpose of Mike starting this factory is not just to make money, but to gather people's hearts and unite those Muggle-born wizards who have a difficult life.

Regardless of the fact that these people may not be strong individually, they are still a powerful force when united, at least they are good as cannon fodder.

In the environment of a closed factory, Mike can easily brainwash these workers with a little trick, making them have a personality cult of themselves, so that others will obey him.

Some people may find it difficult to do so, but in fact the human brain is simpler and more easily deceived than you imagine.

Mike remembers watching a movie called 'The Wave' in his previous life. This movie tells the story of a high school teacher who, in just three days, made his students become fanatical followers of him through some simple arrangements.

Even when the teacher finally repented and decided to disband the Inspur organization he created, some fanatics came out to stop him, wanting him to continue leading the Inspur organization.

This is only in an open campus. Mike is confident that with his own strength and means, coupled with the fully enclosed environment of the factory, he can also do what the teacher did.

Although Mike didn't want to engage in the spirit of "swastika", a certain degree of personality cult is still needed, because this will greatly increase the work efficiency of the factory, and even, when Mike needs these people to do other dangerous jobs in the future, they Will do it without hesitation.

At the same time, Mike has also come to the meeting room in the factory.

The conference room of Dolphin Factory is magnificently arranged, and a huge conference table is placed in the center of the conference room.

"Busy man, you're finally here!" Mike just entered the conference room, sitting on a wooden conference chair, and George, who had his legs crossed on the conference table, said, "You are so chic, you don't care if you leave the factory to us Now, do you know how tired we are this time?"

"Yeah, Mike, you are not enough friends!" George on the side also echoed, "We will be sad if you don't give us some bonuses!"

Facing these two treasures, Mike could only shake his head with a smile, and casually threw a traceless stretching spell bag on the conference table and said, "Sorry, my cultivation has reached a critical stage during this time, so I can only I'm counting on you. As for the bonus you mentioned, I'll give each of you an extra 50 Galleons."

George and Fred cheered as soon as the words came out, and Qi Qi rushed to the traceless stretching spell bag on the conference table, and after opening it, no one grabbed it out.

Mike didn't even look at how much money the Weasley brothers got, and after he came to the top seat and sat down, he raised his legs and said, "I just saw that the employees are working hard, so this week How many magic drinks have we produced?"

Hearing that Mike started to ask serious questions, George and Weasley also became serious. They put away the Galleon they got and said, "The workers still don't trust our company a little bit during this time, so many The enthusiasm of the workers has not been mobilized. This has led to a relatively average output in our factory, and only produced about 4000 bottles of Dolphin Magic Drink in a week."

After listening to the reports of the two, Mike immediately bowed his head to calculate.

If calculated based on the wholesale price of a bottle of 2 gold coins, excluding 1% tax, workers' wages and material costs, then he can earn more than [-] gold Galleons a month.

In other words, he can basically recover the construction cost of this factory in one month.

Mike nodded in satisfaction. To be honest, he was very satisfied with being able to do this. After all, the income of more than 1 Galleons per month is already very impressive.From the very beginning, he didn't regard Dolphin's magic drink as a profitable industry.

So Mike stood up and said to the two of them: "Very well, for the time being, I am very satisfied with the output. Next, you will tell all the workers to gather in the auditorium, including those who are still sleeping on the night shift. I'm going to pay them their first wages there!"

Hearing that, the Weasley brothers quickly got up and ran out to carry out the order given by Mike.

----------------

Half an hour later, the originally empty factory auditorium was already full of people.

The workers chattered non-stop and looked excited that they were about to receive their first weekly wages at the Dolphin factory.

After everyone arrived, Mike walked slowly from the backstage to the podium, and although the original noisy voice in the auditorium did not disappear completely, it also weakened a lot.

Standing on the high podium, Mike shook his head as he looked at the people in the back of the crowd who were still talking.

It's just self-deception.

They thought Mike couldn't see them standing in the back row, but Mike could see them very clearly.

But Mike didn't say anything, and started the speech he had already prepared.

"Everyone, today is the seventh day that everyone has come to our Los Santos company. This is a critical day, because you are about to receive your first weekly salary."

After Mike finished speaking, he untied the Untraceable Stretching Curse bag and dumped all the Galleons inside on the podium, forming a hill made of Galleons piled up.

Now the entire auditorium was completely quiet, even the few people in the last row who were chatting were staring at the pile of Galleons.

Immediately afterwards, a louder cheer than before came from the mouths of each employee, and they squeezed forward one by one, with greedy smiles on their faces.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Mike snorted coldly. With a flick of his wand, he saw a wall of flames erected, surrounding these employees.

Now all the employees were dumbfounded. The greedy smiles on everyone's faces turned into endless panic in an instant as they watched the flames emitting amazing heat. shaped into an ellipse.

"I hope that everyone here can figure out their position! You have all signed labor contracts with our Los Santos company. Our company is a reputable company. We will never deduct what should be yours." Mike He paused here, raised his wand and said again, "But if you touch something you shouldn't touch, then don't blame me!"

Following Mike's actions, the wall of fire surrounding the audience suddenly exploded, changing color from red to purple, and the heat emitted was even more astonishing.

Seeing this, the people surrounded by it cried out in horror, and squeezed in even harder.

A smile appeared on the corner of Mike's mouth when he saw this, and he withdrew the firewall with a wave of his wand. Looking at the people in the audience who were still in shock, he said, "Since everyone has no objection to what I said, let's announce good news. Given that Everyone did a good job this week, so everyone will get a Galleon bonus this week."

After Mike released the good news, everyone in the audience didn't react too much. They hadn't reacted from the panic just now, and Mike didn't care. He has a wealth of life experience and he understands the thoughts of these people at the bottom of society. .

The benefit of getting it in your hand is the benefit, and the rest of the things are useless no matter how hype you brag to me!
So he went on to say: "I won't talk nonsense, and then I will be called up to get my salary!"

George on the side stood up, took out the salary list that had been prepared a long time ago, and began to roll the roll.And Shu Ke and Beta also appeared beside the pile of gold Galleons, giving out gold coins according to the amount reported by George.

"Harrison Carter, 13 Galleons!"

As Percy's loud voice echoed in the auditorium, the audience was still silent, and no one came up to collect wages at all.

After a long time, a young man timidly stepped onto the podium.

Shu Ke, who had been ready for a long time, didn't talk nonsense, snapped his fingers and saw 13 shiny gold coins flying out of the gold coin pile and flew into the young man's hand.

The young man looked at the Gold Gallon in his hand in disbelief, feeling the heavy weight, the expression on his face slowly began to change, from initial fear to ecstasy, he bowed several times to Mike Only then quickly ran down the podium.

However, at this moment, Mike's voice suddenly sounded.

"Wait! Come back to me first! The matter is not over yet!" Mike frowned and said, "Also, have I seen you somewhere?"
