Fengxian Jiangshan

To make a factory more efficient, we must start from two aspects, one is the workers, and the other is the machines.Zhang Tinglan proposed a new management system and promised a substantial increase in wages, which greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of workers.

In the past, the foreman punished the laggards, but now it has become a reward priority. The former completely treats people as animals, while the latter makes full use of human nature, and everyone is eager to earn more.I'm afraid that in the future, workers will work harder, produce more goods, and sweat more, but they will enjoy it.

"Humble words, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. It is good to solve the workers' problems, but the factory's machinery is too backward, and must be innovated!"

Kuang Rongguang frowned when inspecting the factory, and Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming seemed to have eaten bitter melon.The machines of the Fengtian Machine Bureau were originally procured by Shengjing General Yi Ketanga. The original plan was to produce arms, but after they were completed, they could only produce silver dollars.

These machines are all steam-powered, and the crude benzene is huge. Compared with the mainstream electric equipment in the world at that time, they are seriously behind, and they have been used for nearly 20 years, and the maintenance effect is also very bad. word description.

"The road is blue, and starting a business is difficult. We are not afraid of how difficult it is!" Chen Qiming said with a serious expression: "It's okay for factories to start at a low level. Many large companies in the United States also started from small workshops. The most important factor is people. There must be good managers and enough talents, so that it will definitely be able to develop.”

"That's right." Xiong Mengyuan also said loudly: "When we come back from overseas, we just want to serve the country. If we want to enjoy happiness, we won't come back from abroad!"

"It's best if you two are ambitious, I can tell you. These difficulties are temporary. The British agreed to build a power plant some time ago, and it's almost done. In addition, I ordered a batch of machines and generators from the United States. It will soon enter the electrical age. As for talents? For the time being, there will be a group of Russian technicians working in Fengtian. I stared at every operation process!"

Kuang Rongguang knew that Zhang Tinglan's affairs were tight-knit, and looking at it now, he really thought carefully.Another power plant, another machine, and Russian technicians, all of these added up, and the shelf of Fengtian Arsenal was set up.

"Mr. Zhang. Now that everything has been arranged so thoroughly, what are we going to do now? Produce guns. Or explosives?"

"Brother Xiong, you are too impatient." Zhang Tinglan smiled wryly, "I negotiated an agreement with the Americans. We will be responsible for the production of gun stocks and magazines, and then ship them to the United States for assembly. For the time being, we will do this first."

"This is too far from making guns!"

"Finally, we are close to guns." Chen Qiming said with a smile: "First make gun stocks, and after you get some money, you can continue to buy machines, just like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and sooner or later the factory will be perfected. stand up."

Chen Qiming is obviously very motivated.Zhang Tinglan is also very satisfied. What he needs is such a young man who is not deeply involved in the world and is full of drive. The initial stage of the arsenal is bound to be very difficult. Without perseverance, he will not be able to persist.

"To tell you the truth, I have enough funds in my hands to buy several production lines, even chemical plants, and steel plants!"

"Then why don't you buy it?" Xiong Mengyuan blurted out, obviously he still doesn't understand Fengtian's current situation.

"Brother Xiong, the big powers don't want to see China grow stronger. Many key technologies and equipment cannot be sold to us, and there are Japanese wolves staring at them. They have long regarded Fengtian as a future colony and managed it. The squadron is not allowed to grow stronger. Maybe they can tolerate the production of some gun stocks now. If they can produce rifles, the Japanese will definitely intervene. They will try their best to control the factory in their own hands!"

This is the case with the Fengtian Arsenal in history. There are a large number of Japanese technicians active in the factory. These people are called to help, but in fact they limit surveillance and even destroy.They control the key technologies, control the direction of development, do everything possible to prevent Fengtian Arsenal from developing independently, and put everything under the control of the Japanese.In history, the Fengtian Armory was the largest in the country, but it was a castle on the beach. It did not have enough foundations, and it did not make the Fengjun really strong. In the end, the arsenal fell into the hands of the Japanese and became a warlord for invading China. accomplice.

When Zhang Tinglan established the arsenal, he had already thought of preventing the infiltration of Japanese forces as much as possible.Our ancestors taught us long ago that the sharp weapon of the country should not be shown to others.The core technology of Fengtian Arsenal must not be known to the Japanese with ulterior motives.

"Mr. Zhang, then we can't keep producing gun stocks instead of rifles just because we are afraid of the Japanese?" Chen Qiming asked with some doubts.

"Of course not, the production of gun stocks is just a cover." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Whether it's buying, stealing, or even robbing, I can always get some. After the arsenal takes shape, the position of Dudu Zhang If we sit firmly, we will have enough power to deal with the Japanese. At that time, we will build and expand in an open and honest manner, and I believe that Fengtian Armory will soon become the largest factory in China!"

"That's great!" Xiong Mengyuan waved his fist excitedly: "Since Mr. Zhang has a clear plan, then we don't have to think too much, Qi Ming and I just work, and you can assign any tasks to you! "

"My preliminary plan is to divide the arsenal into three production workshops. The first is responsible for firearms, the second is responsible for explosives, and the third is responsible for maintenance. Currently, the task of producing gun stocks is mainly placed in the first workshop. Brother Xiong will be in charge temporarily. The explosives workshop is handed over to Brother Chen. The third workshop is called the maintenance workshop, but the task is the most important, to allow workers to understand the structure of the rifle through disassembly and assembly, and strive to make more parts by themselves."

"Zhuo Yan's idea is very good." Kuang Rongguang also said with a smile: "Sooner or later, we will make our own rifles. It is necessary to start researching now. Let's learn from each other's strengths!"

"Mr. Kuang, it's not just that. The more parts we can manufacture, the more orders we can get from the United States. Now we are making gun stocks, the next step is to make bayonets, gun bolts, and bullets. Take out ants to eat The strength of the bones, small steps and fast running, soon we will be able to make our own weapons, and the Fengjun will have the capital to deal with the Japanese."

Zhang Tinglan said very seriously: "Fengtian established a strong military industry system to protect the fertile soil of the three eastern provinces. The Japanese are wolfish ambitions, and Tsarist Russia is insatiable. The lives of tens of millions of compatriots and the survival of millions of square kilometers of land depend on Fengtian Arsenal. Let’s do our best together!”

These words are Zhang Tinglan’s heartfelt words. Only in this era can you truly feel the aggressiveness of the Japanese. There are a large number of Japanese troops stationed along the South Manchurian Railway, and Japanese businessmen have traveled all over Fengtian. They use force as a backing to rob economic interests. , turning the three northeastern provinces into actual economic colonies.

The September [-]th Incident was by no means accidental. After Japan's management, the three provinces in the Northeast have already matured, and it is difficult to maintain them.Although Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming don't know the history of later generations, they are very aware of the cruel reality. The Japanese just threatened to use force against Fengtian, and up to now, the carjacking case has not yet been finalized.

With the facts in front of them, they all felt a sense of urgency. After the inspection, they began to formulate a plan for the comprehensive reorganization of the factory. Zhang Tinglan and Kuang Rongguang were responsible for drawing up various specifications. It is necessary to figure out what kind of talents and machines Fengtian Arsenal still needs.

Then draw up a catalog, estimate the cost, and hand it over to Zhang Tinglan, and then Zhang Tinglan will find a solution.While they were busy, Yang Yuting also came to the arsenal.

"Mr. Lin Ge, you came at the right time, otherwise I would have to catch your young man." Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting got along for a while, and found that this person is actually very good. The only problem is that he is a bit arrogant, but he must have talent first. Well, in history, Fengtian Armory was run by Yang Yuting alone, and now it is appropriate to ask him to help.

Yang Yuting didn't make any excuses, and helped Zhang Tinglan sort out various relationships and formulate strategies together.

"Humble words, the first thing you need to do in running a factory is to hire people. You don't need to say anything about your ability, but you can't keep an eye on the arsenal every day. Mr. Kuang will also be in charge of the School of Mining in the future. Although Mr. Xiong and Mr. Chen are talented, they are not good at management and coordination. Not necessarily familiar. Liu Tongguang is an old man from the Qing Dynasty. He was a smooth official and extremely greedy. He is not a suitable candidate to manage a factory. Therefore, I recommend a man named Tao Zhiping. , is a talent."

"Lingge has always had a unique vision, so appoint Tao Zhiping as the supervisor of the factory!"

"Zhuoyan, there is another point, you should also pay attention to it. The factories are all located in Fengtian, which will inevitably attract the covetousness of the Japanese, especially those Russian technicians. It's going to be hard to do anything!"

Yang Yuting participated in the carjacking case, and he was the most vigilant. What he was most worried about was leaking the news. Zhang Tinglan also strongly agreed with this point, and he was very careful.

"Ling Ge is right. I was planning to place the Russian technicians in Tieling, so I might as well put the maintenance workshop in Tieling, and put the explosives workshop outside the city and keep it under strict protection. Factories moved together."

"Well, although it increases the difficulty of management and costs a lot of money, safety still comes first!"

Both Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting are the most capable people in Fengjun. Together, the two of them will soon complete the reorganization of the arsenal. The American machines have also arrived in Tianjin and can be shipped over immediately.And they found Wang Yongjiang again, and now he is Fengtian's finance minister, holding financial power, and he quickly approved special funds.

Just when everything was ready, another team came from Fengtian, led by Feng Delin. He led two battalions of soldiers and found Zhang Zuolin in a murderous spirit. The old enemies met again. (To be continued..)
