526 The great development of outsourcing: Captain Kong’s little calculation
When leaving the independent regiment's armory, all the cadres were amazed.
Among these regiment leaders, some of the regiments under their jurisdiction have actually established repair shops, but the scale and extent are simply dwarfed by those of the independent regiments.
What is the current scale of the independent regiment’s repair shop?
It is said to be a repair shop, but in fact it has been divided into a damaged weapons repair shop, an explosives factory, a new weapons research and development institute, a red-tipped bullet production room, etc.
All this is just like the chief of staff said, Kong Jie's repair shop is small but has all the internal organs.
When a group of cadres left the repair shop with shock and wonder, Kong Jie secretly winked at many of the group leaders.
These old group leaders, who were all smart, immediately understood what Kong Jie meant and expressed their intention to stay and wander around.
The brigade commander and the leaders at the headquarters took the first step.
Just like that, Commander Xu of the 771st Regiment, Commander Cheng, Commander Feng, Commander Yang, Commander Jiang of the 772nd Regiment, etc.
A dozen group leaders all stayed.
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei naturally stayed, as they knew Kong Jie very well.
Just like what Lao Li said in Ding Wei's ear, "As soon as Lao Kong sticks his butt out, we Lao Li will know what he wants to fart. Looking at his look, he probably has some small calculation!" <
/p>
Ding Wei nodded sympathetically.
As expected.
When the group leaders stayed, everyone was walking around and chatting in the field outside the repair shop.
Captain Feng was the first to ask: "I'm talking about Lao Kong, you just winked at us and asked us to stay. Now the brigade commander, political commissar and leaders have all left. Stop being so secretive and say it quickly!"
Kong Jie suddenly smiled, smiling like an old fox hiding an abacus.
"What do you old comrades think of the development of my weapon repair business?"
Leaders: "..."
Captain Xu of the 771st Regiment once fought side by side with the Independent Regiment in the Battle of Cangyunling. He said happily: "Old Kong, if you keep everyone here just to brag about your armory, then forget it.
Let’s do it!”
Kong Jie said: "Old Xu, please answer my question first. How is my repair shop?"
Captain Xu is probably a real person. When Kong Jie said this, he replied helplessly:
"It is indeed developing very well. In addition to the headquarters arsenal, your independent regiment's repair shop has the most complete equipment and the strongest ability to produce munitions."
"Old Feng?" Kong Jie looked at Captain Feng of the fifth regiment.
Commander Feng's face collapsed and he said: "Who can be better than your old Kong's armory? They can make guns and bullets, but they probably can't make artillery."
"Old Cheng?"
"There's nothing to say. What you're doing as a repairman makes people jealous."
"Lao Yang?"......
"Lao Li, Lao Ding, what do you two think?"
Li Yunlong, Ding Wei: "………………"
Kong Jie was really patient and asked all the group leaders present, leaving everyone speechless for a while.
In the end, it was Captain Feng who said: "Let me tell you, Lao Kong, since when have you started to play tricks? If you have anything to say, just say it quickly. Beating around the bush is not pleasant at all."
Hahahaha——
Kong Jie laughed and spoke loudly, his words seeming to be giving advice.
"Dear comrades, you have all seen with your own eyes the equipment and production capacity of the independent regiment's repair shop.
I am not bragging, except for the arsenal at the headquarters, there is absolutely no regiment that can compare to my independent regiment in repairing weapons."
Looking at the group leaders who were about to roll their eyes, Kong Jie added with a smile:
"What do I want to say? What I want to say is that I, Kong Jie, have never been a selfish person."
"Everyone thinks that the headquarters arsenal is the largest, has the most equipment, and has the strongest production capacity. None of the regimental commanders care about it. On weekdays, they go to the battlefield and seize materials and stuff, and they try to send them to the arsenal. Why?
Because it is very useful and can even provide some weapon support for our regiments."
"Although the armory developed by our independent regiment is not as good as the headquarters arsenal in terms of scale and production, it is more than enough to supply one to our independent regiment.
I don’t want to keep anything private, but I also want to share it with everyone so that I can help one more old comrade-in-arms, an old comrade-in-arms, that’s what I think.”
As Kong Jie narrated, the eyes of the group leaders, who were initially speechless, gradually brightened.
What does it mean?
Are you planning to help other regiments?
Captain Feng couldn't bear his temper, so he was the first to ask: "Old Kong, please speak more clearly. What do you mean?"
Kong Jie said: "It's very simple. I want to cooperate with everyone and enjoy the benefits of my repair with everyone."
"Oh?"
"That is to say, from now on, if our regiments need equipment or ammunition, our independent regiment can produce it through the repair shop and provide a steady supply for everyone. This can be regarded as a gift from me to all my old comrades.
It’s a blessing.”
As soon as these words came out, all the group leaders' eyes widened.
Is it true or not, such a big deal?
Some also sighed in their hearts based on their past impressions of Kong Jie:
Lao Kong is still as down-to-earth as ever! Don’t forget your old comrades even when you get benefits.
Li Yunlong on the side suddenly became vigilant. It didn’t matter if others didn’t know Kong Jie, he knew Lao Kong too well.
How could Lao Kong give people benefits for no reason?
You really have to take this seriously, you were sold by this guy Lao Kong and you still count the money for him!
Now Lao Kong is a shrewd old profiteer, and he will be fooled if he is not careful.
Kong Jie still smiled, and there was no flaw on his face. He said decisively:
"You don't need to worry too much. I, Kong Jie, have been spitting and nailing each other for so many years. All my old comrades know what kind of character and conduct I have."
"Right now is a critical juncture in the War of Resistance. Only when all our troops are strong can our Taihang base be truly strong.
It’s just that the development of my regiment, Kong Jie, is a drop in the bucket.”
"So I thought, my repair shop should not only work and serve my independent regiment, but also work and serve the regiments of my old comrades-in-arms. Only in this way can it maximize its value and significance."<
/p>
Generous speech, words and expressions from the heart.
Many of the leaders who came to the independent group for the first time almost burst into tears. One by one, they stepped forward and held Kong Jie's hand with emotion.
"Old Kong, don't say anything anymore. We have remembered this favor!"
"It has to be you, Lao Kong. After so many years, you are the most down-to-earth and the one who takes the best care of your old comrades."
After a few words, coupled with the visit and study in the independent group, it really shocked all the group leaders, and Kong Jie immediately became the central figure.
But then a group leader suddenly raised a question:
"Comrades, we understand what Lao Kong means, but there is just one question, have you thought about it?
Even the headquarters arsenal is as large as it is, and it is impossible to provide equipment and ammunition for all our regiments.
If we put together so many groups, we can even exceed 100,000 people.
Although Lao Kong's repair shop is developing well, its scale is still too small.
Under such circumstances, how is it possible to provide sufficient equipment and ammunition for each of our regiments?"
"This..."
This question touched on a key point, and all the group leaders choked. The beauty they thought before was shattered in an instant.
Ideals were defeated by reality.
Yes, even if Lao Kong wants to help.
As for this small repair shop, no matter how well it develops, it still has more wolves and less meat. How can it be possible to take care of both?
Nowadays, Lao Kong's independent regiment has also developed. The total strength of the regiment has already exceeded 5,000, making it the largest among all regiments.
Is it possible to not only take care of my own group but also help other groups?
The heads of the group quickly focused their attention on Kong Jie, wanting to hear what Kong Jie had to say.
Kong Jie coughed lightly and said solemnly:
"Old fellows, this is indeed a problem. I have also thought about it. According to the current scale and production of my repair shop, it is far from possible to provide enough equipment and ammunition for all our troops." p>
"On the other hand, even if I have this ability to repair weapons, I still need raw materials to produce equipment and ammunition, right?"
"Without these raw materials, it would be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!"
When the conversation changed, Kong Jie said with relief: "However, after thinking hard, I came up with a solution that will allow each of our regiments not only to obtain sufficient equipment and ammunition, but at least to receive a large amount of support." When all the group leaders heard this, they all looked happy.
Captain Feng quickly asked: "Lao Kong, what's the solution?"
Kong Jie's eyes passed over Li Yunlong's body, and he said without changing his expression: "It's very simple. The main thing that limits the production of equipment and ammunition in our armory is that the procedures for these arms are too complicated.
Some unnecessary simple processes waste too much time, manpower and material resources.
If these processes can be eliminated, the efficiency will undoubtedly be greatly improved."
"It's like cooking in this cooking class. You can't let me light the fire, hold the pot, cut vegetables, and serve the dishes all by myself, right?"
"Lao Kong, what do you mean?"
Kong Jie said: "What I think is that in fact, we have developed some repair shops in each regiment. Not to mention many, we still have the ability to simply repair some damaged firearms!
Although the core technology and equipment are insufficient, our repair shop can provide this."
"So our independent group can cooperate with all your groups."
"How to cooperate? Actually
Everyone can produce equipment and ammunition together.
In terms of core technology, whether it is the production of bullets or explosives, it is fully provided and responsible for it by our Independent Regiment Repair Institute."
"Your regiments are only responsible for some simple production processes. For example, you bring over semi-finished bullets, grenades, and guns. I am responsible for the core processes here. I can produce these equipment and ammunition in a blink of an eye." p>
"In this way, everyone has contributed, which not only saves time, but also improves efficiency."
"After our armory is up and running at a high speed, we can use this method to provide more equipment and ammunition for each regiment."
"Wonderful!"
Captain Feng reacted and clapped his hands in praise.
The other team leaders also nodded, saying that this was a good idea.
Ding Wei always felt that there seemed to be something wrong here. When he turned around, Li Yunlong, who would usually be the first to jump out when encountering such a thing, was silent now.
This is very wrong.
Ding Wei is so smart, he immediately understood what was going on.
He leaned into Li Yunlong's ear and said: "I'm talking about Lao Li, why are you so well-behaved today? This is not like your usual style."
"What do you think of Lao Kong's method of outsourcing the munitions production process?"
Li Yunlong said without hesitation: "I don't think it's very good. It's time-consuming and labor-intensive. So many regiments are stationed far away from each other. Transportation back and forth is a problem."
"Is that true?" Ding Wei laughed, "The location of other groups is inconvenient, but our three Iron Triangle groups are always close to each other.
I said, Lao Li, no wonder the last time we came together to ask Lao Kong for equipment, you were still noisy and the lion opened your mouth, but then you turned your head, didn't want half the bullet, and ran back happily.
I guess you collaborated with Lao Kong on outsourcing production last time, right?"
Ding Wei's judgment was too strong. Li Yunlong smiled and did not deny it.
Ding Wei suddenly cursed: "Well, you, Old Li, don't ask me to do such a good business! This old Kong is really, it's not interesting enough. What you, Old Li, can do, I, Ding Wei, can't do."
