Chapter 203: Subjective Initiative
Yang Yuanzhao is very rich, not to mention the gold and silver collected from the gold mines in Baotou, the gold and silver collected from the golden sand, and the purified tungsten, which caused a sensation in Europe, just ordinary shares and funds for the purchase of machines, all of which are an astronomical version of the number, even if they are raising displaced people in vain, with Yang Yuanzhao's strength, there is no problem at all, using white rice to raise people, can not raise a group of qualified workers, at best, this group recruited by Yang Yuanzhao are lazy people, work for relief, to put it bluntly, It is just to use a little work, a group of people together, only to give full play to their subjective initiative, can better play their strength.
In China's past history, there are such examples, big pot rice, labor for all, agricultural communes, not only did not play an important role, but instead raised a group of lazy people, you don't do it, I don't do it, everyone doesn't do it, and in the end, it develops into a big problem that is difficult to solve.
When the land is their own, given enough to the state, left enough for the collective, and the rest is their own, China's peasants have burst out with the vitality of their imagination, and the previous kind of laziness has completely disappeared, and agriculture has changed from an old and difficult problem to a problem of overall planning and cooperation.
From this point, Yang Yuanzhao knew that even illiterate peasants had great power, and as long as someone guided this force out and gave full play to it, it would be an earth-shaking change for China's rural areas.
The family loom is the key to solving this problem, the male farmer and the female weaver is the ideal life of many people, which has been recognized by the people at the bottom, although the loom uses more manpower, but in the countryside, under the premise of the household unit, 4 people, it should not be difficult to find, this loom, Yang Yuanzhao took into account the current situation in the countryside, so as far as possible to compare it like an ordinary loom, simple and easy to learn, as long as four people cooperate with each other, do it fast, OK, dry slowly, it is not impossible, You don't have to deliberately guarantee a certain speed.
The policy of the company plus farmers, just such a simple implementer, around Baotou, there are few weavers, but not nothing, most of them are reluctant to come out, but when the loom is sent to the village, headed by the chief, the process of promotion began, there is one, there are two, and then there are three, with the help of Jin merchants and various large landowners, the loom expanded rapidly, and soon, from the periphery of Baotou, expanded to all over the place, from the beginning of 100 units per day, to 200 units, and then to 300 units, breaking the ice is always the most difficult, There is a standard example, there has never been any followers in China, not to mention, there are many Jin merchants, small landlords, small factories, from the textile factory, 300 weavers were transferred, although it will affect the production of only a textile factory, but Yang Yuanzhao does not care, these are all seeds, are the same as the master, ordinary farmers use looms, in a certain way, and relatively simple, and not a factory, pay attention to labor efficiency and cooperation, as long as you know the methodDon't underestimate the wisdom of Chinese farmers, the glorious history of the past 5,000 years, how many inventions are created by farmers, as long as they are mobilized, let the subjective initiative, with the invention of the creation of the zào, the changes brought about are absolutely amazing.
300 weaving women, divided into several directions, have penetrated into almost all parts of Baotou, from villages and towns, to villages, they are divided into more than 300 small teams, each of them, are alone in front of a large number of people, they need to weave the loom, the method of weaving, to teach everyone who is interested.
In this era, it is a very difficult thing to walk alone, not to mention a young woman, in order to ensure safety, behind every textile worker, at least four or five soldiers of the new army, responsible for protecting them, for this reason, the new army specially transferred half of the manpower, and even Wang Jinming with a battalion, almost 700 people, stationed around Baotou, ready to support them at any time, with them as a backing, many female workers calmed a lot, began to go deep into the fields, A series of teachings began.
It is not to exterminate the clan, four or five heavily armed warriors to protect these female workers, it is already enough, and the clan power of the eight Jin merchants in various places is displayed at this moment, and all of them are carried out smoothly.
Ordinary people, there is always the idea of taking advantage, even if it is a farmer, a thing, if no one goes to try, maybe, this matter, can not be carried out, when the first one starts to try, slowly more.
The whole plan and implementation is very simple, the machine is provided by the company, the personnel are also responsible for training, raw materials are provided, the finished product is recovered, as long as you are careful, not intentional damage, there will be no problem at all, the cotton yarn is woven into cloth, you can get a certain amount of rewards, one or two horses look inconspicuous, when the efficiency of the work is improved, the number of weaving cloth is improved, this number is considerable.
Everywhere they went, the women weavers who were in charge of imparting their experience were greeted with cheers, and those who wanted to learn the knowledge of weaving were getting higher and higher. According to the calculation of a female worker, within a week, about 30 families are trained, in just over half a month, 18,000 families, not everyone has applied for looms, and almost half, which is 90,000 units, which is an astonishing change, enough to cause a change from quantitative change to qualitative change.
The first batch of looms has been delivered to the eight major Jin merchants and shareholders, with a number of more than 2,000 units, and the machine has taken a week, along with the gradual proficiency of the workers, as well as the designed assembly line, the daily production capacity, from about 250 units to 1,250 units, which has increased more than 5 times, and the next 7 days, almost 10,000 units of supply, these finished looms were first supplied to the periphery of Baotou.
Originally, there was no work, just relying on the farmers who worked for relief, began to try to get here, each machine qì 4 people, smart, skillful, not few, but a lot of people took this step, before the teaching of female workers, most of them looked at it, after serious study, into weaving.
40,000 jobs, 10,000 looms, on the first day of the completion of the distribution, it produced a considerable effect, these people weaved a total of 15,000 horses, when the number reached a certain number of times, the surprise between individuals was very small, these household looms, the woven cloth, are narrow, and the previous more closely combined, but not afraid of no market, for the time being, or handed over to a few Jin merchants, through guò channels, sales, Yang Yuanzhao's task, is to continue to promote his loom, Let more people join this money-making plan.
Before the 10,000 machines, from the first day, the daily production capacity is gradually rising, on average, not much, but the total output, has been 1,000, 2,000 slowly rising, finally, to 10 days later, this number, reached a daily production of 24,000 horses, which almost means that the average machine qì, can produce 2 horses of cloth, this number, not as good as the skilled weavers in the textile mill, but has represented half of the ultimate efficiency of the loom.
Novices, can have such a level, on the one hand, the loom is relatively simple, on the other hand, it is also the result of the weaver more serious, without serious study and summary, the careful guidance and problem solving of the teachers, they can not do this step.
Unexpectedly, these ordinary peasants, between learning, are faster than their specially recruited workers, passively to learn, for a salary, and active to learn, for a more increasing wage, this seems to have a deeper meaning, that is, initiative.
Yang Yuanzhao felt that this might be applied to the cotton textile factory, but he didn't think very clearly for the time being, the cotton textile factory was still full of ideas, solved the problem of the remaining cotton yarn, and turned the cotton yarn into cotton cloth, such a market is larger, and even the ordinary village market can be sold, ordinary villagers, even if it is economical, no matter how simple, the necessary clothes are always to be worn, no silk, you can choose cotton, and you can choose linen if you don't have cotton.
Clothes are just needed, as long as it is to go out, you must prepare something, and this kind of thing, with the passage of time, slowly deteriorate, damaged, until you can not wear it on the body, Yingyi 300 million pieces of cloth number, representing China's vast market, rural areas are even more so, with more people, the more cotton cloth is needed.
In the second week, the speed of machine production has been accelerated more and more, York and others, has thoroughly eaten the key to the production line, everyone, in the specified time, almost at the same time to complete the assembly, even if it is not synchronized, the first machine, starting from the first person, through to the last person, from an ordinary skeleton, into a complete finished machine, everyone is doing their most familiar, even the best part, finally, the efficiency of production, in the gradual improvement, From the previous 1250 units, increased to 1800 units, the second week close to 15000 units of production, on the basis of the first batch of expansion, the second batch in addition to continuing to take care of the idle people around Baotou, began to expand outward, Yang Yuanzhao's previous ideas, has issued a scale, more than 100,000 textile population, in the previous Baotou was almost a poor and white appeared, the company's policy of adding farmers, almost showed his power.
