Text: Chapter 8 Part-time Job

Today is the first day to see a worker, and to be honest, Ding Yi doesn't resist going to work very much, especially the Xu Ji puppet shop at the front door, which is also Ding Yi's favorite storefront. In fact, it is to look at the puppets outside the window, and those puppets are not cheap.

Ning Shao once bought a tin warrior, and as a rich man in the class, he once took it out to show off. The seven-inch samurai cost fifty silver dollars, and the samurai could only walk simply, and when he encountered obstacles, he would only take the short sword in his hand and slash down.

Ning Shao's big name is Ning Jin, and their family is in the timber business, has their own workshop, and also has a large furniture store at the front door. Ding Yi, as the contractor of Ning Shao's operation, actually has a very good relationship between the two.

Ning Shao is very smart, he is familiar with various business skills and methods, and he is also very good at being a person. He never oppressed others with power, nor did he take advantage of his money to bully other poor students in his class.

Take homework as an example, he gave Ding Yi a small contract meeting. Ding Yi and five or six poor students offered to compete, and Ding Yi made the lowest offer, beating all the competitors. Because he doesn't want money, he just needs to be able to watch the magic disc. And Ding Yi has good academic performance, and can imitate several fonts, the key is that Ding Yi is very good at guessing questions, and the preparation of the cheat sheet before each exam is perfect.

Another reason for choosing Ding Yi is that he thinks that Ding Yi is a bit special, and he feels that this guy should not be an ordinary person, which is purely intuitive. Maybe this guy will go to junior high school like himself in the future, and he is willing to invest in people who can follow him for a long time.

Before Ding Yi went to the front door, he first went to the fruit on Guangyuan Street, and repeatedly begged Grandpa Hu, who sold fruits, this Grandpa Hu's grandson and Ding Li are close friends, and he is an extremely kind old man who speaks very well.

A lie should be covered up with more lies, and the ancients did not deceive me.

There is no way, after all, this matter is too big, it involves cultivators, and Ding Yi doesn't know what to do if the matter is exposed.

At half past eight in the morning, Xu Ji puppet shop, Ding Yi met the puppet shop manager Xu Rongfa, this is a black thin man who does not smile, after a brief inquiry about the situation, he handed him over to a short-legged dwarf, the dwarf's name is Duoduo, and he is the puppet master of this shop.

The so-called puppeteers are actually not all cultivators, but people who have a considerable study of machinery and formations.

Xu Kee's workshop is huge, with about thirty or forty workers working, many of whom are as big as Ding Yi.

Ding Yi was assigned the task of sorting the various components and transporting them to the various workers who needed them. This is obviously a very difficult job. Not to mention which components have as many as thousands of kinds, the weight of a few components alone is not less than dozens of catties, which is not something he can move.

Duoduo is a grumpy person, you can hear him shouting at any time, he doesn't seem to be happy with anything, he has an opinion on anyone. It's the first time Ding Yi has seen someone who can stop scolding all morning.

In just three hours, Ding Yi almost couldn't feel the existence of his arm, his chest was like being pressed by a boulder, and he couldn't breathe. Three hours of sweat is estimated to be more than three years of sweat.

In this way, he still suffered a lot of abuse.

At noon, Ding Yi found that he couldn't lift his arm, so he barely picked up the bowl, and trembled unconsciously enough. The workers all burst into laughter.

Seeing those child laborers with the same status as himself also laughing at himself, Ding Yi was speechless. It seems that my small body is still not qualified for this job that I don't know how much salary.

There was only one hour to eat at noon, and Lao Zhang's explanation was the most important, the distance between Shuijing Hutong and the front door was not too far, he pinched the silver dollar in his jacket pocket, ate two free lunches provided by the workshop, said goodbye to Duoduo, and left in a hurry.

When Ding Yi rushed to Yining Hall, Zhou Chong, a partner of Yining Hall, was grabbing medicine for the guests, and Ding Yi handed over the silver dollar to Zhou Chong and said the medicine powder he wanted to buy, Zhou Chong felt very strange.

The strange thing is not that child, but the silver dollar, maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, this silver dollar is no different from ordinary silver dollars, but as soon as the silver dollar touched Zhou Chong, Zhou Chong knew that this was the 'magic silver' circulating in the organization, and quietly took the silver dollar, wrapped the medicine powder according to Ding Yi's requirements, and handed it to Ding Yi.

Zhou Chong didn't know who his superior was, and he didn't know who his contact person was? In fact, the name Zhou Chong was also fake, and his superiors had never given him any tasks in the three years since he came to Jiyun City, and no one had contacted him. He just hibernated in this pharmacy, maybe he thought the organization had forgotten him.

But at this moment, this silver dollar appeared in front of him.

Ding Yi was relieved and completed the transaction. Hurry back to the puppet shop.

On the way, Ding Yi couldn't help but think about a serious question, should he continue to do this deadly job?

Ding Yi didn't want to die of losing his strength, and said that he understood that with his current physical strength, he couldn't continue to work at all.

Skipping work? You can't be beaten to death by your dad when you go back. I have to find a way to get myself out of this job on the one hand, and on the other hand, I can still not be slapped by my father's big slap.

Leaving the city? As soon as this idea arose, Ding Yi vetoed it. Not to mention that outside the city are dreaded wolves, wild lions, and some unknown beasts. The legal situation outside the city alone also made Ding Yi afraid. Cultivators can ensure the peace of the city, and they don't have the leisure outside the city.

If the city is still a place of legal law, outside the city is an out-and-out lawless place, although the security of the situation at the township level should be relatively safe. However, all kinds of village rules and customs are completely independent small kingdoms. In many places, the concept of the legal system is very weak.

Every year, only the quota of converting villagers with less than 100 people in a city into urban residents is given, and then the commoners of the empire are divided into urban and rural people. Let the countrymen envy the city people is hatred.

Moreover, most of the civilians who made mistakes in the city were also driven out of the city, and they only made mistakes, not broken the law, which increased the resentment of the villagers outside the city. All I heard were horrible, bloody legends. Although he doesn't know whether it's true or not, Ding Yi is still afraid of going out of the city alone.

Knowledge is power, and knowledge changes fate! In the case of physical incompetence, only through the power of knowledge can we change all this.

In fact, Ding Yi's work in the morning also gave him the opportunity to observe the operation of the workshop and familiarize himself with the working environment. To put it bluntly, this 'Xu Ji' located at the front gate is just a very rudimentary workshop. The work of the whole workshop is still the most basic production mode of one master with a few apprentices.

Take 'Xu Ji' as an example. Xu Rongfa, the manager of Xu, is just the role of a store manager, overseeing procurement, shipment, finance, and responsible for the overall situation. The grumpy dwarf of Duoduo is in charge of the progress of production and the arrangement of personnel, of course, he is also the chief designer of this puppet shop, and he also completes the production of the core technology of the workshop. Below him were the formation mage Lu Shiji and the mechanism master Jia Shiyuan, who mainly built the formation and mechanism of the puppet. And then there are five or six big workers, and they are some skilled skilled workers. Finally, there are small workers, child laborers, and this group of talents is the main body of Xu Ji, with the largest number of people. Although they have the name of master and apprentice on the surface, they do not have a strict subordinate relationship with the great workers, and they can be called by those great workers at will.

Xu Ji mainly produces small and medium-sized mining puppets, and of course also produces some kinds of dolls and dolls.

It can be said that its entire management and production procedures are still disorganized and chaotic. The whole production process is chaotic, according to the order of production, surging up, many small workers, child workers are at a loss, just mechanically obey the random scheduling of various large workers, and dispose of them at will. Every big worker wants to have as many manpower at his disposal as possible, and the big workers often wrestle with each other in the distribution of manpower, and the workshop is like a noisy market. Moreover, the level of each major worker is also uneven in different processes, and there is often mutual blame and rework......

Of course, Ding Yi has never studied management, but he has read hundreds of various books (mainly in the field of cultivation), and has watched dozens of magic discs. Although this is a bit difficult for Ding Yi, it is still feasible to peel back the cocoon, straighten out the production order of this primary workshop, and correct it one by one.

Ding Yi converted the knowledge of 'art', 'law', and 'array' that he saw in the book into a management model, and used the military management method he saw in the history book about the father of the nation winning more with less in the early days of the empire to prove his ideas, and felt that it should not be a big problem, so he walked to the store.

Xu Rongfa was taking a nap, he was sleepy after eating, and he was woken up by the little ghost who just came this morning, Xu Rongfa was very angry. Staring at the clerk who woke him up, "What's the matter?" "I don't know, the little ghost who just came in the morning, said that it was very important to tell you, and when I asked him, he wouldn't tell me what was going on. I saw that he seemed to be talking about something, so I ......" the clerk hurriedly replied.

"What can a little ghost do, you didn't lie to that kid. Xu Rongfa just wanted to lie down again, but stood up again. "Let that imp in. Xu Rongfa said to the clerk.

"Steward Xu, my name is Ding Yi, and I just came to your store to work today," Ding Yi saw Xu Rongfa's obviously bad complexion, and hurriedly said.

"Well, I know, you are a kid from the Ding family, let's say, what's the matter?" Xu Rongfa asked.

"I found that the operation pattern of the workshop can be changed, and I initially estimate that if I follow my design, the efficiency of the whole workshop can be improved by at least 20%. Ding Yi organized the language.

"What? You say you can improve the efficiency of the workshop?" Xu Rongfa was taken aback, this little ghost who had just arrived at the store for just three or four hours actually made such a suggestion. He thought that this little ghost couldn't endure hardship and didn't want to do it. To improve efficiency, just rely on this little ghost? Xu Rongfa couldn't believe it.

Xu Rongfa has never met such a person in this puppet shop for more than ten years.

"Yes, I can do it!" said the child stubbornly.

Xu Rongfa looked at the child opposite in surprise, and couldn't believe that this was from the mouth of a child who was less than ten years old.

"I'd like to ask you to tell you when you come to the workshop. Ding Yi told the story.

Xu Rongfa, and the shopkeeper, all grew their mouths and froze
