Chapter 239 New Production Plan

"Even if, as you said, slaves are animals, they must be carefully fed, and slaves are tools, so they must be maintained with time and oil.

Otherwise the animals will emaciate and die, and the tools will rust and be ruined.

Viscount Pound, I think you should be aware of this truth, but you think these tools are too cheap, and it's not a pity to use them if they break.

But even for a simple labor job like a miner, there are actually a lot of tricks to learn. A skilled worker with good labor security is always much more efficient than a slave who is dying.

Like this redstone mine under your name, it can only accommodate 200-[-] people working at the same time. If we want to increase efficiency, we should pay attention to the treatment and quality of workers.

If Viscount Pound insists on objecting, then I can only forcibly interfere with mine production as the general manager and technical director of the Coal and Iron United Company.

Since the directors of the coal and iron joint company are willing to let me handle these matters, then I will carry out my ideas. If the method does not work by then, the losses caused will be borne by the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce. "

Seeing Viscount Pound's disapproval, Xia Lin had no choice but to insist on the resolution of the board of directors.

"...If Viscount Xia Lin thinks that this must be done and insists on doing so, I will not object.

In this case, the management of the Redstone Mining Area and the other mines of the Brook Chamber of Commerce will be handed over to Viscount Xialin in charge of our agreement.

But if your method still doesn't work after one month, I will ask the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce to make up for the loss of our Brook Chamber of Commerce! "

Viscount Pound thought for a while, seeing Xia Lin's persistent appearance, he had no choice but to compromise. Fortunately, this matter did not do any harm to the Brook family, so the objection in his heart was not very strong. .

"no problem!"

Xia Lin naturally agreed to this small condition.

With the authorization of Viscount Pound, Xia Lin took a look around the entrance of the mine in Hongshi Mountain. It was similar to what he expected. It was a simple mine supported by wood.

In such a mine, all kinds of dangers may happen at any time. Xia Lin suspects that the unsupervised slaves in the mine dare not and are unwilling to go deep into the mine with more abundant reserves, but choose to casually walk in the shallow part of the mine every day. Dig 10 pounds of iron ore to finish.

Even if they are smarter, they will hide the extra iron ore dug out in some places. If there is not enough ore dug out one day, they can take it out to deliver tasks and get daily rations.

With this kind of management, it’s no wonder that the output of each slave is ten pounds every day. After looking at several mining areas under the name of the United Coal and Iron Company, I found that the situation is basically the same as that of the Hongshishan mining area, and there are even better conditions than the Hongshishan mining area. The mining area is even worse.

Xia Lin shook his head and returned to Helgana with Viscount Pound. While arranging the necessary manpower and materials, they prepared a detailed plan for the mine's new production campaign.

Including setting up logging teams and wood workshops, cutting wood on the spot and using eliminated woodworking machine tools to process planks and various supporting molds to improve the safety conditions of the mine.

From the mine to the camp, and from the camp to the wharf, iron-clad wooden rails will be built, and mine carts will be set up to facilitate the transportation of ore.

The content up to here will be implemented in the mines planned for the first phase of development under the name of the Coal and Iron United Corporation.

The miners are promised that on top of the basic task of 35 kg per day, they will be given a work point for every [-] kg of iron ore dug, and a batch of long wooden houses will be built in the camp for the miners.

At the same time, a canteen and a supply and marketing store are opened. The canteen can provide enough food that is more like human food for the miners who complete their daily tasks, and the supply and marketing store can allow the miners to use their work points to obtain more food, better clothes, A more comfortable home.

Until 2000 work points are exchanged for their physical deeds, that is, freedom, each of these work points can be directly exchanged for 1 copper bis currency. At that time, if they want to continue to be miners or leave Hongshi Mountain, Xia Lin will allow them .

All these expenses will be recorded in the account books by the financial personnel sent by Xia Lin. Through the increase in ore output, Xia Lin will smooth out these expenses, and then let the directors of the Coal and Iron United Company who disagreed see how they liberated the slaves. After the productivity, how much profit can each miner bring to the mine.

No need to think about it, Xia Lin also knows that the directors of the company will definitely choose their own management methods at that time, because the recent wars in the three borders of the empire have been stable, the traffic between the central border and the northern border and the eastern border has been cut off by the rebels, the source of slaves has decreased, and the value of slaves Ascension, this is no longer the time for these mine owners to squander slaves at will.

Even if they own a mine, a miner only needs to dig the mine alive for three days to allow the mine owners to recover the cost of buying slaves, and then let the slaves die.

However, compared with Xialin's guarantee of the survival of miners, investing more and at the same time allowing them to produce more ore through modern management methods, thereby obtaining greater profits, there are obvious differences between the two methods.

After completing the preparatory work, Xia Lin formed a mining area management team based on the specifications of six managers and four craftsmen drawn from the Union Chamber of Commerce, and went to each mining area to start new mine production with the help of the mining area personnel. exercise program.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the plan, Xia Lin followed one of the groups and came to Hongshi Mountain with woodworking machine tools, various tools and various materials purchased by the coal and iron joint company.

Just as Viscount Pound promised yesterday, the camp guards did not interfere with anything in the camp today. Apart from not letting the miners leave the camp, they did not drive them to work in the mine early as usual.

Just when the miners were trembling at this strange change, Xia Lin led a group of people to drive the carriage to the foot of the Red Stone Mountain, and then contacted Lucas to ask him to arrange for people to carry the materials to the camp. middle.

"Viscount Xia Lin, all the supplies you brought have been transported in place, do you have any orders next?"

It took almost half a day for Lucas to take the supplies brought by Xia Lin and his party to the mining camp. Then he asked Xia Lin again. Although he didn't take Xia Lin's plan seriously, on the surface he still had to obey And cooperate with Xia Lin's arrangement.

"Well, now you go and ask the guards to gather these miners and announce that I will take over the Redstone Mountain camp, otherwise my words won't work here."

Xia Lin nodded and said to Lucas.

"Understood! Matthews, you lead a team of guards to drive those rats out of the mud nest!"

Lucas casually gave instructions to a tall and strong man beside him. The strong man nodded to show his understanding, and quickly gathered his team members and led Xia Lin to the camp.

"Come out, you dirty bastards!"

"Get out, the new lord has something to announce!"

After a burst of stabbing and cursing that made Xia Lin frown, the miners all timidly gathered in the open space at the entrance of the camp, looking at Xia Lin and the ten people behind him, as well as the man who carried the burden manually. All kinds of materials that came over.

"You stupid pigs, remember it for me, from now on, this Viscount Charlene Karl will be your new master!
During this time, you must obey the orders of Viscount Xia Lin!At that time, maybe the benevolent Viscount Xia Lin will grant you freedom!
But if some stupid and dirty guy has the idea of ​​running away, our guards will find this guy out of the forest with hounds as before, and then hang them at the gate of the camp!
Next, I would like to invite the distinguished Viscount Xia Lin to say a few words! "

Matthews yelled angrily in front of a group of slaves curled up in a group, causing a change in the group of slaves. Obviously, he had been gaining power in front of these slaves for a long time.
