Chapter 68 Preparations for the Opening of the Establishment
The antechamber of the Yan Mansion.
After the two sat down, Li Zexuan asked, "Brother Shaoning, I don't know how many scooters have been made?" ”
He didn't come here today just to deliver drawings, he was also very concerned about the preparations for the opening of the Wonder Pavilion.
When Yan Shaoning heard this, he smiled proudly and said, "Hehe, Xiaoxuan, brother, aren't you still at ease with my errands?" The first batch of 300 scooters was all made yesterday, just waiting for the opening of the Wonder Pavilion. ”
With his dad's current status, it's not easy to get people to make some scooters.
Li Zexuan is also relieved in his heart, this Yan Shaoning is really neat and tidy, unlike some rotten Confucians, who act like mothers-in-law and mothers-in-law, as an engineering dog, he has not lost the face of these engineering compatriots.
"Brother Shaoning said this, I was relieved, otherwise there would be no goods, how could this Wonder Pavilion be opened. By the way, Brother Shaoning, have we found the craftsmen of the Quire Pavilion? ”
He had asked Yan Shaoning to help him find a group of skilled and loyal craftsmen, and the Wonder Pavilion must have its own workshop in the future, which would be more conducive to secrecy and technological monopoly.
Hearing Li Zexuan ask the craftsman, Yan Shaoning became even more proud, and he smiled:
"Hey, I was going to surprise you Xiao Xuan, but since you took the initiative to ask, then I'll tell you. After my father found out about my cooperation with you in running the Quirk Pavilion, he gave me one of our family's previous workshops, and this workshop will be part of the Quirk Pavilion in the future. The craftsmen in that workshop used to be overseers, and there was no talk of technology. ”
Li Zexuan was really pleasantly surprised when he heard what Yan Shaoning said, he just asked Yan Shaoning to help him recruit a few craftsmen, but he didn't expect that people would directly send a workshop in one step, this gift is really valuable. Since everyone is so generous, Li Zexuan can't be stingy, he waved his hand and said generously:
"Brother Shaoning is really interesting, I have to thank my uncle in person, and I will pay for all the craftsmen in this workshop in the future."
Yan Shaoning looked at him with a strange expression, and couldn't help but say: "The craftsmen of the workshop work for the Strange Pavilion, of course the salary should be paid by you, Xiaoxuan, do you still plan to let my father continue to pay them salaries?" ”
Eh, Li Zexuan felt that what Yan Shaoning said was reasonable, so he patted his head in annoyance, and secretly scolded himself for being a little funny.
"Well, what Brother Shaoning said is that I have been a little busy and confused in the past two days. Where's the workshop? Would you like us to go and have a look? ”
Since I have a workshop, wouldn't it be more convenient to hand over the quyuan plough to the craftsmen of the workshop.
"That workshop is in Anyi Fang, which is very close to the East Market, so it will be very convenient in the future."
Li Zexuan said happily: "That's great, Brother Shaoning, let's go to the workshop to have a look, right?" ”
"Since Xiao Xuan wants to go and see, then brother, I might as well obey my fate!"
……
followed Yan Shaoning to Anyi Fang, and walked into a small alley, and saw a relatively large courtyard group, although the house is not luxurious, but it occupies a very large area, and there is a sign hanging on it, "Strange Pavilion Workshop". Li Zexuan looked at Yan Shaoning suspiciously, he didn't expect him to move so fast.
Yan Shaoning seemed to see the doubt in his eyes, and smiled triumphantly: "My father said that since this workshop was given to us, of course the name will be changed, and this plaque is still inscribed by my father himself, how about it?" My father's words are in Chang'an, and many people can't ask for them! ”
Although Li Zexuan didn't know calligraphy, when he saw these words, they were vigorous and powerful, hundreds of times stronger than his own dog-planed words, and he immediately exclaimed:
"Uncle Yan's words are indeed good words, this time he inherited such a big favor from his old man, and the younger brother must personally thank him in person another day!"
Yan Shaoning smiled secretly in his heart: It's just like this, when you fall into the hands of my father one day, see how you can excuse yourself to be lazy, haha!
At the moment, he said without changing his face: "Well, Xiaoxuan, if you have this intention, my father is very pleased." Let's go inside and have a look! ”
When the two of them entered the courtyard gate of the workshop, they saw that there were more than 20 houses scattered inside, and there were some empty spaces outside, piled up with some wood and iron, and Li Zexuan even found a large iron furnace.
The scale of this workshop was really beyond Li Zexuan's expectations, he originally thought it was just a small workshop, but he didn't expect it to be equivalent to a small factory, Li Zexuan was really a little moved at this moment.
Looking at Li Zexuan's shocked expression, Yan Shaoning introduced him:
"Xiao Xuan, this workshop was built by my father in the first year of Wude, it was just a small workshop at that time, and my father was only a young craftsman who would be a supervisor, but our Yan family is a real engineering family, I know many people in the same way, it didn't take long for the scale of the workshop to gradually expand, and there are more and more people, and now there are more than 60 craftsmen in this workshop, some of which old craftsmen such as Fu Bo have worked with my father before, and the skills are very exquisite, Xiao Xuan, you can't treat these old craftsmen badly, otherwise my father will not spare you at that time."
Li Zexuan waved his hand again and again, and said: "Of course I won't treat them badly, these people will be the foundation of our Wonder Pavilion in the future, and in the future, all their salaries will be increased by fifty percent on the previous basis!" ”
Yan Shaoning picked his thumb and said with a smile: "Haha, brother, you are arrogant!" ”
When the two of them entered a room, they saw an old man dressed like a farmer, drilling wood, presumably making a scooter.
"Fauber, are you busy?" Yan Shaoning shouted.
The old man turned around, saw that it was Yan Shaoning, and said with a smile: "Yo, Young Master Yan, you are here, who is this?" ”
He pointed at Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan heard Yan Shaoning call this person Fu Bo, remembered what he said just now, and knew that this person was an old man in the workshop, so he couldn't be lazy, so he took the initiative to introduce himself:
"Fu Bo, hello, I'm Li Zexuan, one of the owners of the Wonder Pavilion, you can just call me Xiao Xuan!"
Fauber raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "You are the one who invented this scooter and roller bearings?" ”
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded.
Fauber was pleasantly surprised: "I didn't expect you to be so young and think of such a good idea, it seems that we old guys are really old!" Ha ha! ”
"What did Fu Bo say, as the saying goes, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, the kid will have a lot of immature ideas in the future, and he needs you to always be on the side!"
Li Zexuan still attaches great importance to these old craftsmen, although their physical strength is not good, their experience is very valuable.
Fu Bo's heart was also a little warm by Li Zexuan's words, this owner is young and talented, but he is not domineering, Fu Bo also has a good impression of him, stroked his beard, and said with a smile:
"Hehe, the owner is serious, we old guys just can't be idle, and we have no regrets about making the last contribution to the workshop."
"Fu Bo can call me Xiao Xuan in the future, you are an elder, and the kid can't afford to be called that."
"Haha, I'll take care of the old man, call you Xiaoxuan, come on, Xiaoxuan, you came just in time today, I just wanted to talk to you about your scooter and bearings."
