"Uncle Wu, don't worry! I'm not advising you not to take ideas from those people, but before giving any suggestions, I still need the general distribution of these people."
"Huh..." Wu Liangdong breathed a sigh of relief and introduced: "After September 18th, many workers from the Shenyang Arsenal entered the customs in batches, and some remained outside the customs.
Among these people who entered the customs, a group of middle- and lower-level technicians with technical drawings joined the Gongxian Arsenal, and some high-level technicians joined the Ordnance Industry Administration.
Of course, this is only the destination of the relatively concentrated group of people who entered the customs. Some of the remaining people joined other arsenals, some lived among the people, or entered private factories with their skills, or changed careers to make a living, and some were just like the one I found.
Fortunately, in recent years, the domestic situation is no longer as chaotic as it was during the warlord war, and it has only been a few years since September 18th. The whereabouts of the remaining people are still roughly clear, and many of them should be able to be found.
A very small number of those who stayed outside the customs continued to work for the Japanese in the arsenal, but the number was not large. Some of them joined the anti-Japanese armed forces in the Northeast. Of course, there were also many civilians scattered outside the customs.
At that time, the Northeastern Army's military industry system was too huge. The Shenyang Arsenal alone had 25,000 people at its peak. Calculating it carefully, there were quite a few people going to each destination."
Lin Mo nodded and asked: "Uncle Wu, what kind of people are you planning to recruit?"
"Those who enter the customs and live among the people, there is no problem, right?"
"Yes..." Lin Mo spoke bluntly and said: "Uncle Wu, you can recruit these people who are living among the people after entering the customs, but you must recruit a group of people... or rescue a group of people who are still living outside the customs. You are more important."
Before Wu Liangdong could ask again, Lin Mo explained: "Uncle Wu, to be honest, you and these people from the previous processing plant are really not good enough in front of this new group of people you recruited. If you don't use some means, this In the future, you may be afraid of..."
Wu Liangdong was silent. This kind of thing was no longer what Lin Mo said, but had already begun. He was the owner of a small processing workshop. Compared with the dazzling positions of those people, he was really...
Fortunately, he also has the kind of character that never admits defeat, which actually aroused his competitive spirit, and he was mentally prepared for this situation, but he was still a little worried, fearing that he would cause trouble and affect his business.
Lin Mo stopped to give Wu Liangdong time to think, and also observed the other party's reaction. When he saw that Wu Liangdong only frowned, he felt relieved.
"In the armory, Uncle Wu, the people you fished out from prison, as well as the people you recruited to privately manufacture weapons, have a dark history. Don't worry too much. There is a high probability that they will surround you.
As for the others who live among the people and are recruited by you, it is not easy to unite them because they come from a variety of sources. It is not difficult to give you time to separate them and win them over so that they can be used by you.
The trouble is that those people from the Northeast who were recruited have had a glorious past, so they will naturally have arrogance in their hearts. It is not easy to get them to obey an outsider.
And according to what you mean, these people are planning to recruit a large number of people. It will be easy for them to unite and form their own clique. Coupled with the National Ordnance Industry Administration, the power of the Northeast Clique is not weak. You should understand what I mean. Meaning, it may not just be an internal matter within the repair shop."
Wu Liangdong's frown deepened. He had not thought about it so deeply before. After Lin Mo reminded him, if things really developed to that point, it would be beyond his control.
Seeing this, Lin Mo continued: "Recruiting people from the Northeast will indeed be of great benefit to the development of the armory, so it would be a pity to give up, but we cannot let this happen, so we can only use some means.
.
Rescue those people living outside the customs. Firstly, you can gain the goodwill of these people from the Northeast and reduce their rejection of you. Secondly, you can even become their benefactor, allowing you to occupy the highest moral position.
But you have to pay attention to a few things in this matter. First, you have to be quick. As the weapons you make appear again and again, especially after the Japanese suffer a loss, sooner or later their eyes will be on you. Even now, you may have been captured by the Japanese.
People are paying attention.
Therefore, this matter must be done quickly. Before the Japanese find out your details, you must take back the people outside the customs and try to avoid being blocked by the Japanese.
The second is to have more people. Those who are living outside the customs, we will try our best to pick up those who can be found, especially those who are easy to find. After all, after we do this, they are likely to become the targets of Japanese revenge. If there are too many people
If something goes wrong, it may backfire.
Moreover, this matter must be done secretly, and the person must be picked up quietly in private, otherwise once the Japanese notice is drawn, there will be trouble.
Also, after all, the Shenyang Arsenal is in the Northeast, and it belongs to the Northeast Army. The local people are probably the majority. They evacuated into the customs back then, and many of their families are still here.
You have to recruit them, and try your best to bring in the family members who stayed in the Northeast, firstly to show kindness to these people, and secondly to eliminate future troubles, so as to prevent the Japanese from making an issue of their family members.
Once this is done, the people in the training workshop will definitely accept your kindness, and the people in the Ordnance Industry Department will also accept your kindness. If you can take the opportunity to help them pick up their families, I'm afraid they will still have to protect them.
you."
Hearing what Lin Mo said, Wu Liangdong couldn't help but feel a little moved, but he still had some doubts. Moreover, this matter was very difficult to handle, and he couldn't even do it by himself.
After hearing Wu Liangdong express his concerns, Lin Mo said with a smile: "Uncle Wu, are you ready to take advantage of all this kindness? Just pull the strings, build a bridge, and report the suggestions to the office. The rest will take care of itself.
People take care of it for you.”
"That's easy to say..." Wu Liangdong nodded and said, "I just don't know how many arrangements the office has in the northeast. Can this be done?"
"There must be arrangements in place, it's just a question of how much, and it's not as difficult as you think. Pull out the carrots and bring out the mud. As long as you understand part of the situation and follow the clues, it won't be that difficult.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And this matter is only suitable for making decisions. At most, we can provide some information. What you are worried about is that you will be taken into account by the Japanese, but we have already been taken into account, and we will definitely
It is the object of focus.
It is difficult to do this matter quietly. Once the situation is discovered, it will definitely attract the attention of the Japanese people. Therefore, it is not suitable to handle this matter in person.
I already have a rough candidate for the person handling the matter, and I will take the time to help you contact him. Remember to keep it confidential and try not to spread the word before the matter is completed."
"Okay..." Wu Liangdong nodded without being polite.
Lin Mo thought for a moment and then said: "You'd better inform Section Chief Xu about this in advance and ask him to ask the boss for instructions. The boss will give his approval before making arrangements."
After speaking, the two discussed the details and made enough plans to avoid trouble later.
"By the way, Uncle Wu, your repair shop has grown to hundreds of people. What's the boss's attitude?"
Wu Liangdong heard this and said: "This matter was ordered by the boss! Originally, I was only planning to develop to a hundred or so people first, but the boss said it was too few and too conservative, so he asked me to recruit more people freely, and also decided on a
The goal is to recruit a thousand people in the early stage.”
Since it was Boss Dai who gave the instruction, Lin Mo's worries were immediately reduced by more than half. Lin Mo didn't believe that Boss Dai would not consider it. Since he dared to give the instruction like this, Lin Mo's worries have either been solved or there is a way to solve it. Lin Mo
Dare to let go...
Wu Liangdong wanted to say something, he hesitated for a moment, quietly approached Lin Mo, and then asked in a low voice.
"Lin Mo, the boss asked the repair shop to expand so rapidly. What is the specific reason? What should I do? Can you help me analyze it?"
Lin Mo listened, thought for a moment, and said: "The weapons you produced have proven to be a significant improvement in our combat effectiveness. Continued production and development of special equipment suitable for use here must be one of the reasons.
As for other reasons, there may be involvement in military production to recoup investment or even earn funds, etc. I can’t quite guess what the boss is thinking, but don’t worry too much. Follow the boss’s instructions to recruit people and build projects.
Factory, R&D, and production, if we run these beautifully, there won’t be any big problems.”
Lin Mo wasn't talking nonsense. In the arsenal, that's all it should do. As for making money, wouldn't it have to be based on these jobs? If you don't have the ability, can you seize the opportunity presented to you?
In fact, Lin Mo had another idea that he didn't mention. Boss Dai might have used some method to persuade the principal about the repair shop, otherwise he would not have given such an instruction to Wu Liangdong.
"By the way, Uncle Wu, with the police equipment order, how much profit can you estimate in the end?"
When Wu Liangdong heard this, he made a rough estimate in his mind and said: "If all the police in Nanjing's sphere of influence change their uniforms, and we can get all the orders, the profit will be enough to recover all the expenses of purchasing equipment and recruiting manpower.
, there can also be a lot of profit.
These two types of guns are indeed very suitable for police equipment. Compared with rifles, they are also more practical for the police. I dare not say that all the equipment will be replaced within the national government, but the amount of equipment is definitely not small.
But if we want to cover all orders, it is unlikely. I even estimate that we can win 30 to 40% of the orders, which is already too optimistic.
As far as I know, the Jinling Arsenal has already begun research on these two types of guns, and other arsenals and even repair shops that have received the news will probably not be slow in their actions."
If there is money to be made, there will definitely be people who look for it. Lin Mo has already predicted this. What he wants to confirm is whether Boss Dai relies on the repair shop to make money. From the current look, he should have this intention.
.
"Uncle Wu, don't just focus on the gun. Guns are durable goods and can be used for three to five years, ten years or more. Normally, no matter how much you can earn from a gun, it is basically a one-time deal.
In the arms business, the real money maker is ammunition. Even if it can be reloaded, the number of times is limited. It is a consumable. Although the profit per bullet is not much, it cannot support the large quantity needed and there is still a continuous need.
In addition, currently, domestic ammunition still needs to be imported in large quantities from abroad. If you want to be self-sufficient, there is still a huge gap. If you produce the ammunition, as long as the quality is not too inferior, you will have no worries about sales. So if you want to make money, just put more effort into this.
!”
Wu Liangdong nodded involuntarily, thinking about it in his mind, and realized that there was a lot to be done in this. He immediately made up his mind to arrange it immediately after returning.
"By the way, Uncle Wu, the repair shop is expanding so fast, so it must cost a lot, right? What is the attitude of the people in the department towards this?"
Hearing this, Wu Liangdong regained his composure and said, "It must be a lot. Equipment and people are two big expenses, but not many people know the exact amount spent.
The attitude of the people in the department towards us is quite polite and friendly, and they are not very polite, but that's normal. After all, the weapons we provide can sometimes save lives."
Lin Mo just asked, if he was not afraid of 10,000, he was just afraid of what might happen, or if someone didn't have a good eye.
"Uncle Wu, I usually follow the Action Department, those who graduated from Huangpu, and those who came from Jiangshan. These are our own people. From now on, we won't be working at the headquarters, so we can't take care of you in everything. We still need to get a firm foothold as soon as possible.
.”
"Okay..." Wu Liangdong nodded. In fact, even if Lin Mo didn't say it, he could also feel the closeness and distance of those people. But since Lin Mo mentioned it, he naturally had to bear this intention.
Lin Mo mentioned a few more people for Wu Liangdong and continued to ask: "Uncle Wu, how are you considering the location of the repair shop and the arrangement of manpower?"
"I chose three locations respectively, Nanjing, Dangtu and Wuhan. The one in Nanjing is mainly the research and development part of the repair institute, which conducts research, improvement, transformation, and research and development of weapons.
Nanjing's personnel composition is mainly composed of experienced technicians with R&D capabilities, as well as talents reserved for the future.
Technicians are those talented people we have found. They have either presided over or participated in the imitation research and development of various weapons, or they are experts with in-depth relevant knowledge. Of course, there are also some technicians with top technical standards who have made a big name among the people.
of talented people.
Reserve talents, these young guys I brought are among them. They mainly come from the juniors who were recruited. They either have been exposed to it since childhood, or they already have certain skills, and are even slightly famous. Some have even entered university for further study.
Related majors.
They are young, studious, hard-working, and very adaptable, so we recruited them to Nanjing to give them a better environment, better education, and good training."
"Hmm..." Lin Mo nodded and added: "In addition to these, the research department had better find some personnel majoring in military industry, as well as scholars, experts in machinery, science and engineering, graduates with excellent grades, etc., to add
Come to your research department."
"Is this necessary?" Wu Liangdong was a little confused. Except for the reserved talents, the researchers he recruited were all people who had been involved in military industry for countless years. It was completely unnecessary to recruit some inexperienced laymen.
"It is very necessary..." Lin Mo answered affirmatively and said seriously: "Ordnance industry is also an applied branch based on modern science and engineering. Let them conduct weapons research, which can be regarded as counterpart work.
The researchers you recruited are all veteran military workers. They have rich experience, but their thinking is inevitably mixed with stereotypes. Not to mention that they have been away from research for many years. Even the research they once did was not the most cutting-edge research in the world.
The introduction of these people is to add some fresh blood among them, to combine and collide with experience and new ideas, and to create the soil for the birth of new inventions.
Secondly, these people have undergone systematic study and have good scientific research capabilities. If they are recruited, there should be no problem whether they are allowed to conduct some basic research and theoretical research or participate in weapons research."
"Okay..." Wu Liangdong chose to believe Lin Mo, but when he thought of something, a layer of gloom suddenly appeared on his face.
