Jagged Warlord

According to the plan of the designer Samuel, the machinery factory is near the locomotive factory, and it only takes 10 minutes to walk.Li Mohan didn't take the car, and asked the workers of the locomotive factory to carry the two engines and headed for the machinery factory.

The soldiers standing guard at the gate of the factory hurriedly saluted Li Mohan, and the old man at the gate also trotted out to greet him, and then shouted at another gatehouse, "Call inside and say the commander is here."

Li Mohan shouted: "Don't fight."

The old porter was startled, and when he saw Li Mohan's dark face, he screamed in his heart that something was wrong, and he didn't know who was going to be in trouble.

As soon as he entered the gate of the workshop, this was the second time Li Mohan entered the workshop since the factory was put into operation, the first time was the day when it was officially put into production.Seeing Li Mohan coming, the workers stopped what they were doing and saluted Li Mohan.Li Mohan waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, don't worry about me."

Then, Li Mohan walked around the workshop, his face became darker the more he looked at it.

The interior of the factory is in a mess. The machines that were purchased less than a year ago are already rusty. Although they are still in operation, the ground is full of loess and a little water. A large pile of mechanical parts are piled up in the corner. Many are moldy.Li Mohan checked several other workshops, the situation was similar, only three words can describe it, dirty, messy, broken!

This is the factory I spent a lot of money to build?This is China's future industrial hope?

Li Mohan walked to the office building with a dark face, Pei Yuqing led a group of engineers and foremen ran down from upstairs to greet him.Pei Yuqing knew something was wrong when he saw Li Mohan's expression, "Marshal, why are you here?"

Li Mohan raised his eyes and said, "Your machinery factory is well managed, and the machinery you make is very useful. Of course I want to come and see it."

Pei Yuqing was a little embarrassed, it seemed that he knew it already.

Li Mohan pointed to Pei Yuqing, Savitz and several other Chinese and German engineers, "Come in with me. What should the others do?"

Li Mohan called Pei Yuqing and others into the office, and scolded them all over his face.Sevitz and several German engineers felt aggrieved, and Sevitz said: "General Li, I think you should know that the machinery factory is managed by Mr. Pei. In fact, we have put forward suggestions for improving management to him many times, but none of them have been received." adoption."

Li Mohan stared straight at Pei Yuqing, and asked sternly, "Is that so? Old Pei?"

The corner of Pei Yuqing's mouth twitched, and finally nodded, "Yes, they all told me."

"Then why don't you change?" Li Mohan asked

Pei Yuqing sighed, and said, "Marshal, I also have my own difficulties."

"Say." Li Mohan said

Pei Yuqing said: "Our factory is large, but there are few skilled workers who can operate machines. Rare things are more expensive, so those skilled workers become arrogant, shouting at every turn, and changing ways to ask the factory to raise their wages. Among the workers There are also intrigues. The technicians hide their secrets and refuse to teach the skills to the small workers. Often, only one or two people can use a machine. As long as three or two big workers make trouble, the whole factory has to stop. I am trembling every day. I really can't tell. If there is a slight mistake, killing me is a trivial matter, but if I miss the commander-in-chief's important matter, I, Pei Yuqing, will not be able to pay for a hundred lives!"

"So, you don't dare to control them and let them do nothing like this?" Li Mohan pointed to Zheng Guangquan who was beside him, "The engines they use in their locomotive factory are made by your machinery factory, and the sound is as loud as thunder. The members' ears are deafened."

Savitz interjected: "We have also raised this issue. When installing engine parts, some screws need to be unscrewed five times, and then screwed back one and a half times. However, Chinese workers take it for granted that five times less Going one and a half laps is three and a half laps, so they are not willing to strictly follow the design and construction."

In later generations, Germany's automobiles are well-known in the world. In addition to excellent performance, they are excellent in quality.Anyone who buys a car knows that German cars can be imported with original packaging or assembled domestically.A detail during domestic assembly caused quite a headache for managers.When the original product was installed in Germany, the workers tightened the screws strictly in five turns and half turns. Although this requirement is also required in China, but the last half turn is more lazy. This is a difference that cannot be seen by the naked eye. After two winters and summers of heat expansion and cold shrink, the effect of that half circle will appear.Some Chinese workers asked, "Why not just twist it two and a half times?", because the subtle elastic space formed by the half-turn provides a maneuver for thermal expansion and contraction, and it cannot be formed by direct twisting.

A small worker offered tea, and Li Mohan took a sip of it, and then said, "Old Pei, you can't handle this kind of thing? You can do the factory manager if you can. If you can't, I'll replace him."

"I~" Pei Yuqing didn't know how to answer

Seeing Pei Yuqing's embarrassment, Savitz stepped forward to make a rescue, "General Li, let me be fair. Believe me, Pei has done his best."

After the criticism, Li Mohan became a little less angry.What Pei Yuqing encountered was a very real problem.Whenever later generations mention Wanqing’s modern industry, it refers to Jiangnan, Mawei, and Hanyang. Although the Hanyang factory is generally higher than the whole country in terms of technical ability and manufacturing level, and the total number of workers exceeds [-], the number of technicians in the country is still very high. scarce resource.

This matter cannot be entirely blamed on Pei Yuqing, Li Mohan thought about it calmly, and said, "Have our factories and workers signed a contract? It's a contract."

Pei Yuqing shook his head and replied, "No, what kind of contract do workers need to sign? This is not a business."

Li Mohan shook his head and said: "You are wrong, and I was negligent at the time. The workers sell their labor, and the employer pays for it. This is a kind of business. If there is no contract, neither party is bound. Of course, they have advantages, so they can blackmail employers at will, but employers dare not speak out, and the end result is that workers and employers hate each other, and one day when this conflict breaks out, it will be a big deal."

Pei Yuqing frowned and thought for a while, then said: "It's really true. If a worker wants to slow down or hurt his employer, he only needs to quietly sprinkle a handful of sand in the gear of the machine, and he can destroy a machine worth tens of thousands of yuan. .If the boss and the guys can't get along in harmony, sooner or later something will happen."

"Well, that's the reason." Li Mohan said: "Instead of getting into trouble at the end and tearing each other's faces, it's better to make it clear one by one from the beginning. Look at those who opened the bank , Shanxi merchants of the ticket number, starting from the buddies, everyone is holding personal shares. If the deal is good, everyone has a share. If the deal is not good, everyone will suffer. In this way, can they not desperately work for the boss? ?”

Pei Yuqing suddenly became enlightened, and said: "I understand. What the Marshal means is that if you sign a contract with the workers, no matter who violates the contract, the government and the king will naturally judge. If the factory is good, so are they. The business of the factory is poor. Are they also affected?"

"Yes, that's the way." Li Mohan nodded, "If the workers don't regard the factory as their own at all and have no sense of belonging, then naturally they will be lazy if they can, and count as one if they can earn more. one day."

Pei Yuqing said excitedly: "I understand, let's do it now."

Li Mohan waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute, Lao Pei, one size counts for one size, and you can't escape the responsibility of poor management. Do you accept the punishment?"

Pei Yuqing lowered his head, "I agree."

Li Mohan nodded and said, "Suspension without pay for three months, the factory will be temporarily handed over to Sevitz."
