When the Saint comes, she does not collect food

Chapter 1139 Harkin, you newborn!

These small blackboards on the factory walls were actually part of the literacy requirements of the Sacred Heart Church.

The factory has part-time literate people who come to write these things every day.

After work, there are literacy groups where people teach and learn from each other.

A literacy group that performs well and achieves rapid literacy progress will receive a bonus from the Holy Church.

In addition to the daily literacy classes, the factory also displays work-related words, definitions, and daily example sentences.

"This is also one aspect of the Holy Alliance's factory management method." The two dwarf brothers appeared before them without their noticing.

The cannery we have today was jointly funded by the two dwarf brothers, the Bureau of Sacred Produce, and Hot Springs Castle.

"You two are a bit late," Grossien teased. "Is it because your legs are too short to walk fast?"

"Go to hell." The dwarf brother Gulgar landed a straight punch on Grossien's knee. "We're going for training."

"Training? What kind of training?"

"Of course it's training on the 'Pilgrimage Management Law'! This morning, the observers from the Holy Produce Bureau and the judges from the Tribunal all came. Even if it's just for show, we have to go," the dwarf brother Gargu couldn't help but complain.

"It's all because of those rookies at the Capital Construction Bureau that everyone has to make changes," the dwarf brother Gulgar couldn't help but curse.

Even Kuvask had heard about the Capital Construction Bureau incident that Gulga mentioned.

In other words, when the Capital Construction Authority was building apartments, it forced the price down in order to win the bid and make a profit.

This ultimately resulted in low wages for workers, poor safety conditions, arbitrary beatings and verbal abuse of construction workers, and shoddy construction projects.

Unfortunately, they were discovered by His Holiness the Pope, who had just returned from an inspection.

This incident enraged His Holiness the Pope, who immediately mobilized the Cheka to personally investigate and launch a bloody purge.

It was during this campaign that the tribunal discovered the problems in the factory.

In other words, although the factory was established, it was still operating in the manner of a workshop or even a small workshop system.

Simply put, the factories or workshops at that time were just enlarged versions of traditional workshops.

A factory is owned by the investor himself or by appointing the factory owner, who then appoints a supervisor who directly controls and supervises the workers.

This refers to a three-tiered management system: factory owner, supervisor, and worker.

Supervisors typically earn 6-8 dinars per day, while workers receive a basic wage of 3 dinars plus piece-rate bonuses; skilled workers can earn up to 5 dinars per day.

However, such skilled workers are few and far between; most workers' skill level is at most 3.5 dinars.

The supervisor's duties include checking the workers' work progress, quality, and discipline, and rewarding or punishing the workers based on their own judgment.

While this kind of supervisory system can ensure production order to a certain extent, its biggest problem is its subjectivity and unfairness.

Those who have a good relationship with the supervisor can easily pass the inspection with their products.

Those who have a bad relationship with the supervisor are often harassed and will never receive a bonus.

In some workshops, foremen even exercised personal control over workers and forced them to work.

As for factory owners, they always had to be severely punished in order to ensure the smooth operation of the factory and the rapid production of goods.

Some factory owners, due to personal grudges, will arbitrarily reduce wages, impose fines, or dismiss employees.

For example, one employee might be randomly selected each month to be fired because "our factory doesn't welcome unlucky people."

Some factories, in order to increase profits, even fine employees 2 dinars if they do anything else during work hours, even singing.

Being late, leaving early, being distracted while working, or talking to coworkers can often result in being caught doing something that means a whole day's work is wasted.

Not to mention pre-job training, you have to learn by yourself, and if you can learn it, you stay, if you can't, you get out.

You may not know how, but plenty of others do.

Horn himself had to admit that these strict systems did indeed ensure that the factory could produce goods quickly and in large quantities, and that the factory could recoup its costs and expand very quickly.

The problem is that this has led to serious labor disputes and severely damaged workers' health.

Even more seriously, in order to resist this oppression, workers either blindly pursue quantity, resulting in poor product quality, or engage in covert resistance, such as shirking work and outwardly complying while inwardly resisting.

At the four-year summary meeting in 1457, Horn went on and on about this for almost an hour.

However, His Majesty the Holy Grandson also conducted a self-examination, believing that:

"Although I told you why I did it and what I was going to do, I forgot to tell you how to do it." "There is an old saying in El, 'To punish without teaching is cruelty,' so I will give you another chance."

Following the debriefing meeting, Horn immediately released a comprehensive management plan, known as the "Pilgrimage Efficiency Method."

Simply put, Saint Sun hopes that the factory, as a monastery of the new era of the Holy Alliance, should pursue faith in the Father in addition to profits.

Therefore, in addition to profits, factories must also consider the well-being of workers and production efficiency.

"So, do you think this 'Pilgrimage Efficiency Method' is useful?"

The entrepreneurs from Shenglian looked at each other, gave a wry smile, and remained silent.

If asked, they will definitely boast about how useful it is.

In reality, from a tactile perspective, it's not just useless, it's truly useless.

They split one supervisor into five or six foremen with different responsibilities, paid five times the wages, and still had the same supervisor doing the work.

They set up a so-called observer and had people randomly selected to conduct so-called efficiency experiments every day, which did absolutely nothing except disrupt production plans.

Not to mention worker training and standardized tools; their training content was simply teaching workers how to walk and carry things.

Do we need to be taught how to walk and carry things?

In addition, there are dedicated foremen who supervise the workers to ensure they follow the training instructions on walking and movement.

The workers found this extremely difficult to adapt to, and their daily workload actually decreased.

Not to mention, they also had to elect worker representatives from among the workers to negotiate with the factory.

From the perspective of these factory owners or entrepreneurs, it resembled a kind of religious ritual or political performance.

However, there was no other way; the rectification campaign had just ended, and no one dared to defy the trend.

We can only maintain this for now. When we really can't take it anymore, we'll secretly make some changes.

The four industrialists from the Holy Union, along with representatives from the Holy Estates Bureau and Hot Springs Castle, toured the factory and then returned to their offices for a meeting.

Next, he went to inspect the raw material mining area, and then immediately went to introduce trade channels.

For the next three days, the same thing happened. By following them, Kuvask got a general idea of ​​how industrialists did business and made decisions.

As for Moloka, he even took notes on the Holy Alliance's business model.

Strangely, they waited at Hot Springs Castle from the end of July to the beginning of August, a whole week, but still didn't see the Krabby Patty King.

Could it be that something came up at the last minute? Or is it because they want to break the contract? Were they just playing them from the beginning?

The Krabby King has a good relationship with the Holy Alliance. His daughter Theodora and several of his family members have set up workshops and trading companies in the Holy Alliance.

The Evangelist Busak was very close to the Lord of Crab Roe Castle and often accompanied him on missions to other Norn lords.

This Grand Prince is one of the few enlightened rulers in Norn. As a member of a thousand-year-old family, he has a strong sense of law and order.

This resulted in the entire Krabby Patty territory being inhabited by relatives from top to bottom.

It has a bit of the feel of the mountain bikers of yesteryear.

At the recommendation of his daughter and friend Busak, he actively promoted an agricultural revolution in his territory.

They use things like threshing machines, new agricultural implements, and water conservancy projects very smoothly.

This time, as the breakthrough point for Southern Norn, he personally came to discuss cooperation matters.

It can be said that this shows considerable sincerity.

What happened?

Grossien and Palak waited anxiously, trying to find out what was going on, but they were still completely baffled.

Then, an explosive piece of news arrived.

The moment the two dwarf brothers saw the news in the newspaper, they nearly fainted, while Grossien and Palak's eyes practically popped out of their sockets.

At the time, Kuvask and Moloka were studying the Holy Alliance Almanac in their room when they heard four unison roars from downstairs:

"By the Holy Father, Halkin, you beast from Hell, how did you get involved with Theodora?!"
