Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

The textile factory has been running stably for nearly a month.

In less than a month, of course, many problems will arise in the work coordination.

Opening a factory and organizing large-scale personnel coordination activities has never been an easy task.

On the second day of training, the textile factory screened out a small number of people.

Those with extremely poor learning abilities, low cooperation, and insufficient obedience were directly sent home.

The situation for the subsequent second and third batches was roughly the same.

Although the textile factory can now operate normally and stably, its production capacity is far from being maximized.

Currently, the finished clothes and fabrics produced are piled up in the warehouse, waiting for the right time to be released to the market.

Part of the construction land was acquired with Li Yuanzhao's help, so the warehousing costs are not too high.

Fang Zheng Yi has not been idle during this short month; although no major problems have occurred within the textile factory.

Many problems have arisen outside the factory.

Those women who went home on vacation or were fired inevitably talked about the textile factory's generous treatment with their families and neighbors.

One person tells ten, ten tell a hundred, and the textile factory's work has become the envy of countless women.

Even many men are secretly eager to try.

In this environment, factory recruitment has also become much smoother.

However, in this process, some women actually entered the textile factory through the brokers of the brokerage firm.

The so-called brokerage firm is equivalent to an intermediary agency, and the broker is naturally the intermediary.

The scope of work of brokerage firms in this era is quite extensive, encompassing almost everything!

But the problem is that Fang Zheng Yi has not entrusted the brokerage firm to recruit female workers.

Then the question arises!

I have actually been targeted by a damn black intermediary!

This group of intermediaries is so bold as to interfere in any kind of work!

Women who want to enter the textile factory directly find the broker to inquire about work, and the broker dares to say that the textile factory's salary is one and a half taels of silver per month, guaranteed entry!

However, half a tael of silver per month needs to be handed over to the brokerage firm as an intermediary fee.

Those women are already poor and uneducated, and coupled with their lack of independent judgment, they naturally believe whatever others say!

They sign contracts with the brokerage firm without understanding what is written on them, but under the temptation of the textile factory's generous benefits and guaranteed entry, they hastily put their fingerprints on them.

After signing the contract, the broker directly asks these women to go to the interview point for recruitment interviews.

If the interview fails, then forget it, and the contract naturally becomes a waste of paper.

If they succeed, it is equivalent to having an automatic income of half a tael per month.

With the contract, even if they take it to the government, these common women will have nowhere to appeal.

Even worse, they directly deceive those ignorant women, saying that if they want to enter the factory, they must first buy designated bedding from the brokerage firm, as the factory no longer distributes bedding.

Those who pass the interview also have to come back and pay an extra amount of money for the bedding.

This matter had been brewing for less than a few days before it was reported to Li Yuanzhao and Fang Zheng Yi.

The two were immediately furious!

Damn it, they dare to touch even the tiger's head; they really don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!

So, in the second half of this month, Fang Zheng Yi and Li Yuanzhao took the health team to the streets whenever they had nothing to do to crack down on black intermediaries.

As for how to crack down, of course, it was with fists!

Upon finding a black intermediary, the two barged in and dragged the person out without saying a word, giving them a good beating!

The boatmen, cart drivers, innkeepers, and brokers, even if innocent, deserve to be killed!

Fang Zheng Yi has no ill feelings towards intermediaries, after all, intermediaries are very necessary in any era.

It can be said that intermediaries greatly enhance the flow of information and increase price transparency.

However, the current brokerage firms are obviously very unregulated, with a strong gangster nature, and many even moonlight as human traffickers.

A gathering place for the dregs of society, even if they encounter poor people, they will peel off a layer of skin from them.

His female workers are already poor people, and seeing them suffer this grievance, Fang Zheng Yi naturally chooses to take the initiative!

After practicing his fists and feet for half a month, his physical strength has also increased a lot.

Although the beaten brokers are secretly ruthless, they are obviously not as ruthless as Fang Zheng Yi, who has power and influence. After a beating, they also complain aggrievedly that they want to report to the authorities.

However, before Fang Zheng Yi and the others could reveal their identities, the largest black gang and hooligan group north of the capital, the Fenghuo Gang, directly moved into the brokerage firm!

They announced on the spot the establishment of a Brokerage Committee, and all actions of the brokerage firm need to be reported in advance! To facilitate supervision!

If anyone in the brokerage firm dares to violate the law and discipline, deceive superiors and conceal subordinates, let them immediately see the brutal nature of the Brokerage Committee...

In addition to cleaning up the black intermediaries a little.

Every day after exercising, Fang Zheng Yi also has to run to the harem and simply "report" to the princess.

The content of the report is naturally about romantic dates, affectionate glances, flirting with eyes, wagging tongues, and touching up and down...

Of course, there is some serious business as well.

The textile factory can now start production, but production is production, and sales are sales.

In fact, these are two completely different industries.

To win over the cloth merchants of the whole city and quickly stock up in winter is the top priority for Fang Zheng Yi.

They are all existing sales channels in the capital.

Not to mention small businessmen, but the merchants who can gain a foothold in the capital are almost all quite capable, or rely on aristocratic families for survival.

In addition to the capital, their influence even extends to cloth shops and branches throughout the country.

If good cooperation can be achieved with these merchants, then the promotion of new-type textile machines and low-priced fabrics can be much smoother.

On this day, well-known cloth merchants in the capital were almost all invited to the gate of the Banshan Textile Factory.

Many people were actually in a state of ignorance.

They simply received Fang Zheng Yi's invitation and came over.

Although the news of the textile factory is very lively in the market, many people actually look down on it.

Everyone is an industry insider; although your Fang Zheng Yi's status is not low, you are still an outsider after all.

Outsiders watch the excitement, insiders watch the doorway.

After staring at the market for so long, they have not seen the goods of the Banshan Textile Factory on the market.

That means the textile factory is unreliable!

It's been almost a month, and not to mention finished garments, they haven't even seen a bolt of cloth.

Why did you call us here? To ask us to impart some experience?

The merchants were discussing enthusiastically in front of the textile factory, also taking the opportunity to exchange industry experience. Before long, Fang Zheng Yi arrived late in a carriage.

Li Yuanzhao did not accompany him this time. During this period, he became quite addicted to boxing and is still diligently finding black intermediaries to beat with his men...

Seeing Fang Zheng Yi get out of the carriage, the merchants hurriedly saluted.

His reputation is still very high among merchants, and the relaxed business environment of Banshanfang has long been well known to everyone.

Many people have even opened branches in Banshanfang, so they also know Fang Zheng Yi.

Fang Zheng Yi waved his hand and said with a smile, "Hello everyone, no need to be polite. Everyone is here, so let's go in."

After speaking, he waved to the guards at the gate, and the guards immediately opened the gate.

Following Fang Zheng Yi, the merchants filed in.
