Chapter 1857 Machine Tool Replacement
"Finally gone!"

Yang Xiaotao stood at the door and rubbed his cheeks. "I've said more in this day than I usually do in a week!"

Liu Huaimin and the others behind him smiled when they heard this. Chen Gong patted Yang Xiaotao on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You don't just talk a lot, you say a lot of disgusting things. How can you not feel uncomfortable?"

"What's disgusting? This is for the revolution."

"Xiao Tao said it very well, very good!"

Yang Youning praised Yang Xiaotao, "Next time there is such a job, you can continue to do it!"

Yang Xiaotao curled his lips, "Once is enough, come again!"

"It's your turn next time!"

After hearing this, Yang Youning was eager to try it.

This time, their machinery factory made a fortune!
Liu Huaimin then said, "This time, there are 100 Mole armored vehicles, each one costs 100,000, which adds up to 10 million."

"It's still Alliance Coin!"

"Tsk tsk!"

Yang Youning took a breath, his face excited, "Who would have thought that the armored vehicles originally sent to the disaster area would have such a use? It's simply, recycling waste!"

"Should we do more? We may need more later!"

Yang Xiaotao waved his hands and said, "Don't do it yet, wait for the other party's news!"

"With the small space they have, one hundred is more than enough. If they give them more, they will just be hiding in the mountains and feeding flies."

Everyone was noncommittal about what they heard, but right now the most urgent task was to complete the order for these 100 vehicles.

Especially if it is delivered within a week, any delay will affect the business.

Four workshops.

When the news came, the entire workshop fell silent.

Wang Fa opened his mouth in disbelief.

To be honest, when that guy came down to watch today, he was sweating.

What is this thing made of?
Compared with the armored vehicles they made in the past, this thing seems like a joke.

There is no armor and no technology, so it can be used after being installed.

If it were based on the standards of the Kuiniu armored vehicle, I guess people from the internal audit department would have come!

But now, when they heard about the order for one hundred vehicles, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

After making so many genuine, high-quality products, everyone is a little uncomfortable with suddenly having to make defective products.

At a loss!

But when they heard that a car cost one hundred thousand, everyone's faces changed from surprise to delight, and then to cheering.

Wang Fa was surrounded by several team leaders, confirming the reliability of the news.

Dai Qinggang and others who were in charge of Kuiniu production felt like pie in the sky when they heard the news.

One car costs one hundred thousand!

A Kuiniu armored vehicle only costs 500,000 yuan.

The materials, labor and energy required to make a Kuiniu armored vehicle definitely exceed that of five moles!
This is definitely a profit!

Everyone cheered, and Wang Fa quickly arranged the work.

Five Mole armored vehicles were sent to the south within a week, and the train ride from Sijiu City to Guangdong Province took five or six days.

In other words, five Mole armored vehicles must be produced within two days.

Time is running out!
Fortunately, today is not one of them, and for the purpose of demonstration, they have already made most of the armored vehicles. If they work overtime tonight, they will probably be able to finish them tomorrow.

The workshop soon entered a busy period, while Yang Xiaotao, Yang Youning and others held a small meeting in the conference room.

"I just reported this good news to Mr. Chen, and he highly praised this matter..."

"We will recognize our achievements and reward the relevant meritorious personnel..."

"We also hope that we will guard against arrogance and impetuosity, work hard and steadily, and continue to contribute to the revolutionary construction!"

Papapa

Everyone applauded immediately. They would all benefit from the meritorious service this time.

After Liu Huaimin sat down, Yang Youning made an opening speech and talked about the recent situation of the factory.

"Let's talk about it. All five workshops are busy with production. The recent tasks are heavy. Now there is a mole armored vehicle and the matter of the Yanzhou branch..."

Then he expressed his opinion, "So our production task is very heavy!"

"I want to improve work efficiency. Either I have to upgrade the machine tools or I have to recruit more workers!"

After saying that, Yang Youning looked at Yang Xiaotao.

Chen Gong and Wang Guodong also looked over.

There was no other way. If we wanted to improve and upgrade the machine tool, Yang Xiaotao was the only one present who had the ability to do so.

Not to mention the machinery factory, even in the whole country, the only person they can count on is Yang Xiaotao!
"It's not that easy to upgrade a machine tool!"

Yang Xiaotao shook his head after hearing this. It was not that he did not want to research machine tools with higher precision, but the current domestic materials did not support it!
The materials used in those high-precision machine tools are definitely extraordinary and cannot be compared with simple alloys!
Liu Huaimin knew a little about this and explained on behalf of Yang Xiaotao, "If you want to upgrade the machine tool, you have to work hard on both the hardware and software."

“Design theory, basic materials, innovation, etc. are all indispensable!”

"Everyone is aware of the situation in our country."

"Besides, our main goal now is to popularize machine tools!"

“Especially the production of Morningstar, which is far from being popularized nowadays with insufficient production.”

“Even if we want to conduct research, we must ensure that there are enough machine tools to meet the needs of various factories and drive production in more factories!”

After Liu Huaimin finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao nodded in agreement, "Now Morning Star's design drawings have been given to other factories, but how many can actually make them?"

“No matter how high the precision of the machine tool is, it’s useless even if we make it!”

“It’s better to improve infrastructure!”

Everyone nodded silently after hearing this. The machinery factory is the locomotive, but it cannot derail!

"Then let's recruit some people! Yanzhou will be sending some people away soon, so we have to prepare early!"

Yang Youning spoke again. Wang Guodong stretched his body and said, "It's better to hire some workers this time. Don't hire those green hands. It's a waste of time to bring them to the machinery factory!"

“And these inexperienced people can easily cause accidents.”

"The students we recruited last time had three accidents that month. One foot was crushed and two fingers were broken!"

"These guys are clumsy and will only hinder production!"

After Wang Guodong finished speaking, Chen Gong immediately agreed and said, "Old Wang is right." "We don't have that much time to train workers. Let's talk to the leader this time. It's best to transfer a group of workers over so that they can get familiar with the workers as soon as possible!"

Everyone nodded.

The recruitment of workers needs to be reported, and the transfer of workers also requires orders from superiors.

"And with the reputation of our machinery factory, I think many factory workers would be willing to come here!"

“But the factories may not be willing to do so!”

Chen Gong added one more sentence at the end.

Workers, especially highly skilled workers, are the treasures of factories wherever they are.

Just like level 8 workers like Liu Daming and Hou Baowei, they may not be needed under normal circumstances, but when they are needed, others can only watch.

Although the superior's order is there, people must be complaining in their hearts.

If things go wrong, conflicts may arise in future communications.

"I have an idea!"

Yang Xiaotao was playing with a lighter on the side and said with a smile, "No one dares to disobey the orders of the superiors, but the people who are given to us may not be willing to do so."

"So, I think we can give some extra compensation."

"One steel rolling mill can match the efficiency of three workers, so let's replace them with three people."

"One Hongchong can match the output of five workers, so let's replace five people."

"For a Morningstar, at least a Level 7 worker should be hired..."

Yang Xiaotao counted on his fingers and began to mark the prices of the machine tools.

In fact, this can also indirectly improve the factory's production capacity.

Of course, in addition to machine tools, there are other products. Yang Xiaotao will not say much, just focus on this direction.

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin looked at each other and then nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, everyone discussed the situation of the Yanzhou branch. It was initially estimated that the departure would be around mid-August. The first group of people would first go to the local machinery factory to find out the situation.

It is expected that the machinery factory will start to provide machines, materials and personnel after October 1st!
Next is the situation of several other branches.

"Let's leave this as it is for the machinery factory for now, let's talk about the pharmaceutical factory!"

Liu Huaimin changed the subject and everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao again.

Everyone knew that the incident at the pharmaceutical factory was caused by Yang Xiaotao.

In addition, the superiors also gave instructions, and Mr. Chen also gave the medicinal wine a name.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao said, "Director Bai is preparing to find someone to test the medicine and ensure safety protection. Once it is made, we will take it to the south for testing!"

"As for the rest of the matter, Mr. Chen will contact the comrades in foreign trade and get them involved!"

Yang Youning nodded, "In that case, we just need to produce it!"

Everyone nodded, and Yang Youning said, "Recently, our machinery factory has been quite active, especially with the production of several projects, and all departments must cooperate well."

"Old Chen and Old Wang, you guys should keep an eye on the logistics of the workshop!"

Chen Gong and Wang Guodong nodded!
"You are still responsible for the pharmaceutical factory."

Yang Youning looked at Yang Xiaotao, "There is still work in the workshop, go and have a look when you have time!"

"Row!"

"I'm in charge of Yanzhou's affairs, and Lao Liu will coordinate. If there are any problems, we can discuss them later!"

"It's almost August, it's a busy season!"

"Everyone should cheer up and ensure the task is completed"

After Yang Youning finished speaking, the meeting ended.

After the meeting, Yang Xiaotao and Yang Youning walked towards the office.

It was raining outside at this moment, and the sound of rain hitting the glass made a bang bang sound, and the light around was dimming.

"What you just said about replacing the machine tool, do you have other intentions?"

Yang Youning was talking on the side, Yang Xiaotao stopped, "Any ulterior motives? No!"

"Huh, I don't know your plan yet?"

Yang Youning looked as if he had seen through the truth, which made Yang Xiaotao even more confused!
I really don't have any intention!

Yang Youning patted Yang Xiaotao on the shoulder and then spoke.

"Have you also heard about what happened next?"

Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes and neither answered nor nodded, just waiting for Yang Youning to speak.

Sure enough, Yang Youning quickly said, "Alas! These guys are short-sighted and can't keep up with our pace!"

"We gave them such a good machine tool, but they still treat them the same as before. They are just playing dumb. Do they really think I don't know what they are thinking?"

Yang Youning was sighing and lamenting on the side, but Yang Xiaotao understood what was going on!

In short, the widespread use of machine tools has endangered the status of workers.

Take the machinery factory for example. Before Venus was developed, a task might require the participation of fifty people and be completed in one day.

But with the Venusstar machine tool, the same task only requires five people and can be completed in half a day.

After completing the same task, the reward from the superior is the same.

That is to say, if fifty people participated before, everyone could get a share.

But now there are only five people participating. Even if they get ten points, the remaining forty-five people will get nothing.

If there are a large number of tasks, people who use machine tools will earn more and more.

But the factories with few tasks will be in trouble.

There are not many people to begin with, and if machine tools are used, most people will lose their income. Not only the workers in the factory cannot accept it, but even the factory leaders will have a headache.

Don’t worry about scarcity but inequality.

It doesn't matter whether you give it to anyone or not.

In addition, since the workshops are using machine tools or advanced production equipment, some people are bound to be idle.

The more they are used, the more idle workers there are, and in the end, there will be fewer and fewer people working.

So when it came to recruiting workers, Liu Huaimin and his colleagues all agreed and had no objection. It was estimated that under such circumstances, there were quite a few "idle people" in each factory.

After listening to this, Yang Xiaotao knew that Yang Youning had misunderstood. He simply wanted to give the factory some compensation so that the factories could develop.

As for the personnel, he didn't think too much about it.
