Seeing that He Shutai changed his previous hesitation and had a firm attitude to use female workers, Yi Zhizhi couldn't help but smile secretly, in the face of huge interests, what moral norms and constraints such as immorality are not worth mentioning at all, let them compare the different production efficiency of men and women, they will naturally make the right choice, which is more trouble-free than he forcibly asked to use female workers.

Wu Changqing on the side said with excitement on his face: "This is only one day, this effect can be achieved, and in a few days, after the female workers are skilled, won't they really be able to achieve ten times the efficiency?" No matter how bad it is, it is six times more efficient? ”

"That's what Wu Gongzi said." He Shutai said with a smile: "Now it seems that the efficiency of machine silk reeling is really high, and the silk reeled is also high-grade silk." ”

Listening to this, a group of businessmen are all happy, this time to Shunde, is to inspect the effect of machine reeling, Donghuang Silk Co., Ltd. shares, they are all knowing, machine reeling effect is good, it means that their business banks have one more way to make money, who is not happy?

Seeing that everyone was happy, He Shutai said with a smile: "After the dinner, the silk merchants want to ask the big shopkeeper to talk about the affairs of Donghuang Silk Industry Co., Ltd., but they don't know the big shopkeeper. ”

"I'm tired today, so I won't talk about it." Yi Zhizhi said simply: "Let's go to the factory tomorrow." ”

He Shutai hurriedly said: "Okay, big shopkeeper, please." ”

The next day, after breakfast, Yi Zhizhi and his party went to the silk reeling factory, and when they entered the factory, Yi Zhizu went directly to the silk reeling workshop, to be honest, he was also a little curious, how is the production efficiency of female workers so much higher than that of male workers?

Yesterday's best female worker was a young woman in her twenties, who was engrossed in silk reeling, and the noise in the workshop was already loud. Yi Zhishu and his party came behind her to watch. She didn't even notice it. Self-care proficient Suoxu, Lixu, Jixu, porcelain eye, twisting, filling, jointing, discarding silk.

After only a few glances, Yi Zhizhi knew that this woman must be accustomed to reeling silk, her techniques and movements are very different from the male worker the day before yesterday, especially when dealing with broken silk, the two broken heads did not see her knotting action, directly into the mouth to bite, joints, discarded silk in one go, really made him breathtaking.

He finally understood where the gap was. Silk is delicate and easy to break, a little careless, it will break the thread, as long as there is a slow movement, it will lead to a chain reaction, will be in a hurry, will be busier and more chaotic, the more chaotic the slower, this female worker is skilled, in charge of sixty silk mouths. It's still easy and easy.

Come out of the workshop. Yi Zhishu couldn't help but ask: "There is a broken wire, how did the female worker connect the discarded wire?" Is it with the tongue? ”

"Not bad." He Shutai smiled: "She uses her tongue to tie knots and bite off excess silk with her teeth, I asked, most women who reel silk have this habit, it is faster and better than knotting with their hands, and they can also free one hand to take care of other silk mouths." ”

How flexible is this tongue? Yi Zhizu shook his head, quickly collected his attention, glanced back, and saw that everyone had followed, so he said, "Find a place to talk." ”

There is no conference room in the factory, the place is spacious is the lounge, everyone enters, easy to be content with the courtesy of everyone to sit on the top, glanced at the people who are sitting or standing, and said: "None of them are outsiders, if you have anything to say, you can say it bluntly." ”

Seeing that no one was silent, the fat Maitreya Buddha-like Dynasty coughed lightly and said: "Before the big shopkeeper said that the machine reeling silk can be ten times more effective, to be honest, I have never believed it, and I still don't believe it until the day before yesterday.

Ten times let's not talk about it for the time being, the situation of the silk reeling workshop, everyone has seen it, six times is no problem, I noticed it, with six times the calculation, a day can reel silk four taels, a machine can reel silk twelve pounds a month, one hundred and forty-four pounds a year.

The silk reeled by the machine is the best raw silk, which is more expensive than the price of medium raw silk, and in general, the profit of a pound of raw silk reeled by the machine is one or two silver, and a machine can earn one hundred and forty-four taels a year. ”

Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Yi Zhizhi said: "Don't hide it, even if you say it bluntly." ”

Wang Chao arched his hand at him and said: "The big shopkeeper, twenty silk reeling machines, earning less than 3,000 taels a year, and 80,000 yuan of investment, is really too expensive, and several silk merchants who originally intended to invest in the shares were scared away." ”

"Who said that 80,000 yuan only has these twenty machines?" Yi Zhizu glanced at He Shutai and said, "Donghuang Silk Industry Co., Ltd. Longjiang Machine Silk Reeling Factory relies on these twenty silk reeling machines, and twenty-five quintals of silk reeling a year?" ”

He Shutai was stunned for a moment, and stammered: "What does the big shopkeeper mean...... The Longjiang plant plans to install 400 machines...... That's only 80,000 yuan? ”

"What do you mean by only 80,000 yuan?" Yi Zhicontent said angrily and funny: "Such a broken machine, two hundred silver dollars, is it still cheap?" ”

A group of silk merchants looked at each other, and in an instant, all their eyes were a little red, two hundred yuan a silk reeling machine, which was still purchased from France at three times the high price, and was transferred to Citigroup to drift across the sea, so how much is a silk reeling machine imitated in Guangzhou? Fifty? Forty? Thirty? Can you pay back in three months?

Yi Zhizu glanced at Wang Chao and said: "Xun Zhifang is not right, a silk reeling machine can't earn one hundred and forty-four taels a year, you don't deduct labor costs and production costs, machine silk reeling consumes coal, and the machine also has losses, as well as labor salary expenditures, the salary of silk reeling women is four oceans a month, and forty-eight yuan will be deducted a year, which is thirty-three taels of silver, and then deduct other consumption expenses, and you can earn one hundred taels a year." ”

Four oceans a month! Not only silk merchants, but even a group of businessmen's children are surprised, the market situation, the daily wage is only 70 or 80 wen a day, the monthly wage is less than 1,000 wen, more than 2,000 wen, the silk reeling female worker is four oceans a month, this is 4,200 wen, this price is too high!

A group of businessmen are headed by Yi Zhicontent, although they feel unexpected, but no one is silent, Wu Changqing knows that Yi Zhifen is not ignorant of the market market, for more than a year, he has participated in the construction of Yuan Qiyixue, the reconstruction of Tianbao Watch Factory and Xiguan Newspaper Museum, as well as the construction of Changle Machinery Factory and four resettlement villages, how can it not be clear about the price of labor in the market?

Wang Chaoyi took it for granted that Yi Zhizhi didn't understand the market, smiled, and said, "The big shopkeeper doesn't know anything."

Before he finished speaking, He Shutai interrupted him and said: "I am inferior and dull, I don't understand why the big shopkeeper wants to give such a high salary to the silk reeling women, and I hope that the big shopkeeper will give advice." (To be continued.) )
