Changle Machinery Manufacturing Factory, Forging Workshop.

Thirty or forty forging craftsmen lined up, wielding hammers and "clanging", a hot scene.

The supervisor Xiao Mingliang walked around the various workbenches with a gloomy face, don't look at the busy joy of the craftsmen, but there are not many qualified parts, the requirements for machine parts are too high, and the slight difference in size is not good, which is really not easy for a group of forging craftsmen who are accustomed to relying on eyesight and experience to master the proportions.

Wang Xiaoqi sweated around a leather skirt and knocked on a bent part, Xiao Mingliang walked to him, he put down the work in his hand, wiped the sweat with his hands, and said: "This way of playing is not good!" ”

There was a clanging sound in the workshop, Xiao Mingliang didn't hear it clearly, and leaned forward and said loudly: "What did you say?" ”

"This way of playing doesn't work, you have to think of another way!" Wang Xiaoqi said loudly.

"Go out and talk!" Xiao Mingliang pointed outside, and then strode out of the workshop, the two of them walked out of the workshop, Wang Xiaoqi fanned the wind with his clothes, and said: "It's too slow to fight like this, only one or two of the ten pieces are qualified, it's too delayed." ”

"What's your idea?" Xiao Mingliang said in a sullen voice, he himself is also an experienced forging craftsman, he is a good hand at playing knives and farm tools, forging machine parts with high size requirements and non-standard shapes, but it is also the first time to encounter it, the slow speed of forging parts has affected the production progress of the entire silk reeling machine, he has been said several times for this, although he is anxious, but he is helpless.

"Can you hit it with a mold?" Wang Xiaoqi glanced at him and said: "The size of the parts is high, and the arc should be consistent. ”

"How do you hit with a mold?" Xiao Mingliang looked at him confusedly and said, "This is a big piece." It's not a small piece, it's okay to hit a mold in a small piece, it's a big thing. Before he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of Yi Zhicontentment coming briskly accompanied by the factory director Tang Degui and others, and hurriedly stopped talking to meet him.

Yi Zhizhi didn't say hello, and said directly: "I heard that the forging workshop is dragging its feet." ”

"Hey." Xiao Mingliang said with a sneering face: "The big shopkeeper." This part is too dimensionally demanding and too much reworked."

"Let's go, go in and have a look." Yi Zhizu said and walked away, and came out of the forging workshop, he was quite speechless, glanced at Xiao Mingming, and said, "What is the pass rate of the parts that are punched?" ”

"One or two percent." Xiao Mingliang was embarrassed to look at him, and lowered his head and said.

"Remarkable." Yi Zhizhi said, he is not sarcastic. Just by eyesight, it is really not easy to have a pass rate of one or two percent, and after a pause, he asked: "Why don't you use molds to unify specifications and sizes?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoqi, who had never found a chance to speak, lit up, and before Xiao Mingliang could speak, he said: "Small pieces can be forged with molds." But large pieces are forged with molds, not one or two craftsmen. Not to mention four craftsmen with great strength, that is a work of strength, and I am discussing it with Manager Xiao. ”

Hearing him say this, Yi Zhixiang glanced at him with interest, it seems that there are still capable people in this factory, so he didn't wait for him to ask. Xiao Mingliang introduced: "This is the blacksmith, Wang Xiaoqi." ”

"Wang Xiaoqi." Yi Zhishu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, you are now the deputy head of the forging workshop." ”

Deputy Director? Wang Xiaoqi was a little confused, and he became the deputy manager in one sentence? A month's salary has risen by two oceans?

Seeing that he couldn't react. Yi Zhishu smiled and said, "All parts must be forged with molds, otherwise the specifications and dimensions cannot be unified, but you can rest assured, no manpower, use machine forging instead." Saying that, he glanced at a few people and said, "In the past few days, your forging workshop has hurried to make molds for all parts. ”

"Forging with a machine?" Xiao Mingliang asked with a puzzled expression.

Yi Zhifen smiled: "Yes, use the steam engine to pick up the sledgehammer." After a slight pause, he continued: "The forged parts are stronger and more durable than the cast parts, the machine is sold, and we also repair the package, so we must ensure the quality, but all important parts are required to be forged, and the specific parts need to be forged. ”

It wasn't until Yi Zhicontent and his party walked away that Xiao Mingliang muttered: "That iron lump can pick up a sledgehammer?" ”

Yi Zhizhi and his entourage turned back to the factory office, Tang Degui sent a group of people out, diligently poured a cup of herbal tea for Yi Zhicontent, and said with a smile: "On this hot day, it is difficult for the big shopkeeper to run around at both ends." ”

The weather is really hot, the forging workshop is more like a furnace, and after turning around in it, the clothes on Yi Zhi's back are soaked with sweat, and he drank most of the cup of herbal tea in one go, and then he said: "What's the matter, can you still stay in the factory?" ”

Tang Degui is not a craftsman, originally the second shopkeeper of Shengdefu Qianzhuang in Xiguan, Guangzhou, attached to Yuanqi as the second shopkeeper of a branch in Xiguan, only 35 years old this year, shrewd and capable, resistant to cumbersome, good at dealing with the relationship between the top and bottom, when preparing to build Changle Machinery Manufacturing Factory, Yi Zhifen transferred him to serve as the factory director.

Tang Degui of Changle Machinery Factory does not like it, one is that the factory is simple, and the other is that the craftsmen who deal with it all day long, and then the affairs are complicated to a few points, the construction of the plant, the recruitment and placement of craftsmen, and the procurement of things, are all undertaken by him alone, and the second shopkeeper in the Yuanqi branch, it can be described as a world of difference.

Even so, he knew that this was an extremely rare opportunity, if this thing was done beautifully, and he would be appreciated by the big shopkeeper of Yi Zhicontent, he would definitely be able to rise to the top in Yuanqi, and since he took office, he had no complaints, worked diligently, and took care of everything in an orderly manner.

Yi Zhicontent, who listened to it, asked if he was used to it, and he said with a smile: "I was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but now I have adapted to it." ”

"It's good to get used to it." Yi Zhizhi said and opened the folding fan, and shook it unhurriedly: "There are too few craftsmen in the factory, recruit some craftsmen, this time only recruit young ones, as long as those under thirty, fifteen or sixteen-year-old apprentices can recruit more" After a pause, he continued: "One hundred craftsmen, two hundred apprentices, and the treatment is the same as the previous one." ”

There are already more than 200 people in the factory, and they still want to recruit? Tang Degui reacted very quickly, and hurriedly probed: "The silk reeling machine is in high demand? ”

"It's not ordinary." Yi Zhizhi said: "Next year, 20,000 units will be completed, and the year after tomorrow, it is estimated that this number will be needed." ”

20,000 units a year? Tang Degui was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Big shopkeeper, it's good to be able to produce 2,000 units this year, how can 20,000 units be completed?" ”

Yi Zhizhi said with a smile: "20,000 units is not a difficult task, when the steam engine is installed, you will know, and the steam engine will be installed as soon as possible in the next few days." (To be continued.) )
