148 Unexpected

In the gun barrel workshop with a total of 150 people, there are only twenty real gun makers.

These twenty people are skilled workers brought from the Springfield Arsenal. They are now receiving a salary of forty dollars a month for senior mechanics, which is similar to the salary of senior workers in the Springfield Arsenal.

Of course, if the bonus of bringing apprentices is added, the wage level of these workers will immediately increase to a higher level. Even if one apprentice is brought out on average every month, their monthly salary will reach $140. This is definitely a high salary in the United States at this time, which is enough to support a family to live a very wealthy life.

Each workshop has a pipe loss team, who are responsible for checking the qualification rate of the finished product and the consumption of raw materials. If unqualified parts are sent from the production workshop to the assembly workshop as qualified parts, then this responsibility will be counted on the pipe loss team.

The consumption of raw materials is the pass rate of parts. After soliciting the opinions of Zhang Leye and some old workers, Li Mu set the red line of the pass rate of parts to 70%. That is to say, if ten raw materials are used to make seven qualified parts, it is considered qualified. If you are punished below this standard, and if you are above this standard, you will be rewarded. This will maximize the workers' sense of responsibility, improve the pass rate of parts, reduce waste of raw materials, and thus improve efficiency.

Of course, Li Mu did not forget the piece-based system and the ten-hour working system. Speaking of this ten-hour working system, it is related to the weather at this time. It is the middle of winter, and the light is not sufficient. Even during the day, gas lights must be lit indoors for supplemental lighting. Li Mu does not want to use the twelve-hour working system like the Springfield factory. This will be too labor-intensive for workers and cannot guarantee labor efficiency, and may lead to operational accidents. Therefore, ten hours are relatively reasonable. When the number of workers is sufficient, Li Mu will implement two shifts, and then eight-hour three shifts.

Li Mu did not understand technology, so Li Mu only formulated the rules and then handed them over to Zhang Leye and Cao Anran to implement them.

After leaving the workshop, Li Mu had to go to the canteen and toilet for a walk.

The canteen is a public canteen, and there is no distinction between Chinese, Western, Han and Hui people. It provides three working meals every day. The standard working meals include meat and vegetables, and meat dishes include pork, beef and fish. As long as you are a worker in the factory, you can come to eat when you order, with no restrictions on the portion size.

All the employees in the cafeteria are workers' families. They work in the cafeteria and can receive an apprenticeship salary of 12 US dollars a month. Of course, the master is not included. The master's salary is 30 US dollars a month, which is paid according to the salary standards of management and technicians.

Twelve dollars sounds a little short, but it is already very good. At this time, few companies in the United States would hire female workers, and even nurses in hospitals were men.

Toilets are part of public health. In the factory of Junma Weapons, public toilets can be seen everywhere. If they are caught by security personnel in the factory, in addition to being deducted from their salaries, they will also have to carry out compulsory voluntary labor.

The last place Li Mu went to was the school, which is also what Li Mu cares most about at present.

The three thousand dollars given to the Connecticut Bureau of Education was very useful. Not long after Oliveira returned to Connecticut, she found four teachers for Li Mu, namely a music teacher, an art teacher, and two math teachers. In addition to the two English teachers Li Mu hired from Springfield, the school's general framework was already available.

Li Mu originally planned to put the school in the living area of ​​the factory, so Li Mu built five classrooms to deal with five different grades in the primary school stage.

Facts have proved that time travelers also made mistakes, and Li Mu made a mistake in school.

In fact, even if Li Mu is not an orphan, the concept of an only child has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, so Li Mu did not prepare too many classrooms. In Li Mu's opinion, more than 100 workers, up to 200 school children of appropriate age, and five classrooms are enough to use.

When Li Mu arrived at the school, he realized that not to mention five rooms, even five rooms were not enough. Currently, there are more than 400 workers in the factory, and the number of school children of appropriate age scared Li Mu, with more than 800 people. This is based on the premise that less than 200 workers started their families. On average, there are four school children of appropriate age in each family.

Before Li Mu returned to the factory, Zhang Leye had already squeezed out two more units from the already nervous houses and used them as classrooms to accommodate these "unexpected" students. Even so, they were still crowded. On average, more than 100 people in each classroom were much larger than Li Mu's original expectations.

"Expand! Expand immediately - expand according to the standard of one thousand students - no, two thousand, expand first according to the standard of two thousand students, if necessary in the future, continue to expand. Aren't there any workers not arranged to enter the workshop? All of them are transferred here to build a house. Each class can only have at most fifty students. The funds can be withdrawn from the Finance Department. If the teaching staff is insufficient, send a telegram to Oliveira-" Li Mu was determined and hesitated to run the school first, even if it delays the development of the factory. Compared with Li Mu's personal assets, the children's education cannot be delayed.

"Okay, no problem--" Zhang Leye agreed very happily.

Both Zhang Leye's children are educated in the school, so Zhang Leye is happy to see Li Mu tilt resources to the school. This is also the biggest gimmick for Junma Weapons Company to recruit workers. When workers work at Junma Weapons Company, children can receive education in schools affiliated with the factory. With this, Zhang Leye has attracted several skilled workers from Chuntian Arsenal and Zaihan Factory.

Speaking of which, Chinese people never care about the education of the next generation. This is thanks to the imperial examination system that has been passed down for more than a thousand years. Almost all Chinese people understand the truth that "there is a golden house in books and a beautiful woman in books". Even if their families are poor, they will send their children to a private school to recognize a few words as long as they have the opportunity. In such a general environment, the gimmick of Junma Weapons Company is really powerful. When Cole recruits workers in California, he even publicizes this as the biggest welfare of Junma Weapons Company.
