"We are actually doing a pretty good job in safeguarding our family's honor, let alone the salaries and benefits we provide to our workers. This can already be seen in the products alone."
After a brief beating, Lawrence felt that he should encourage everyone. After all, after his own inspections both overt and covert, he found that the entire factory was indeed running well. There was no ideological guidance or industrial management for the development of the entire factory.
Big problem.
"For example, the products we are producing now fill a gap and allow those who were originally unable to enjoy this type of food to enjoy these safe, nutritious and delicious foods. I hope that everyone can maintain this in the future and provide the entire society with
More and better food," Lawrence encouraged everyone.
"Understood, we will insist on doing this in the future." The managers in front of Lawrence assured in unison.
For these managers, they did not understand the business plan proposed by Lawrence at first, because it was different from the management methods popular in various factories now.
But after following Lawrence's instructions for a while, they also realized the advantages of Lawrence's business plan.
On the one hand, these new products proposed by Lawrence are aimed at a completely new market, and there are basically no competitors during this period of time.
Therefore, while these new products accurately meet part of the demand, they also obtain huge profits for Lawrence and others. For example, in addition to the initial investment, the profits during this period plus the expected excellent prospects are enough for those banks.
We have issued many low-interest loans to them.
With these low-interest loans, the entire factory quickly entered a period of rapid development.
On the other hand, when the entire factory entered a period of rapid development, the managers of these factories also realized the benefits of giving better treatment to those workers in accordance with Lawrence's requirements.
When they needed to recruit new workers, they found that many skilled workers came from all over the place to apply.
You must know that for a factory, the most important thing besides the machines is the workers. When the machines are similar, the production efficiency between novices and skilled workers can be said to be hugely different.
After Lawrence asked the factory to improve the benefits for workers, workers had more time to spend on receiving free vocational education.
At the same time, because of these benefits, the trained veterans basically stayed in the factory. As a result, Lawrence and his factory naturally became one of the most productive factories in the area.
After operating the factory according to Lawrence's orders, these managers found that although the expenses were indeed higher at the beginning, after the factory was put into normal operation, those extra expenses were quickly made up by the extra profits generated by the improvement of production efficiency.
.At the same time, it has also gained a reputation that far exceeds that of other factories.
For these retainers belonging to Earl Sauer, although making money is a very important thing, the glory of the nobility is more important to them than making money.
Therefore, the managers of these dairy plants immediately assured Lawrence when he asked him that the operations of the entire plant would continue according to the original practices.
"I never thought that in addition to making money, a factory can also bring benefits to all those related to the factory." After inspecting the dairy factory and moving to the next stop, Saifei sighed to Lawrence.
"You know, I have studied in Briton, a country where the Industrial Revolution broke out in the western part of the mainland. But there, I saw that the workers lived a very poor life. Even working hard can barely feed their families.
.”
"This is about distribution." After hearing Saifei's question, Lawrence decided to talk to his fiancée about this matter. In any case, the two of them will live together for a long time. So this
It is an inevitable choice to talk to each other at this time.
"Wealth is very important, but for us, there are many things that are more important than wealth, such as reputation and social contribution."
"Those factory owners are obvious counterexamples. They obviously only have money in their eyes. If the various churches hadn't been staring at them and asking them to formulate minimum wage policies and labor protection measures, I believe the wages they paid to their workers would have been
At most, it can prevent workers from starving to death."
"But we must not do this. At least in my opinion, if we want to make more money, we should adopt methods such as updating technology and training workers to improve labor efficiency. Rather than exhausting all efforts to obtain more money from workers,
Stealing money. That is both evil and lacking in honor——"
Saphire, like Lawrence, was born in a commoner family, and her previous life experience was also very simple. Therefore, she was very able to understand what Lawrence said, and was not like some people who could explain why they did not eat cake without bread.
That fills your mind with condescending ignorance.
"Mr. Lawrence, Miss Coburg, what you said is so good." Just when they got off the bus at the door of the next stop, Bach, who was driving for them, put his right hand on his chest and bowed, with a look of admiration in his eyes.
Zhise said.
"Several generations of Earl Sauer have been saying this and doing this. According to them, the Sauer family should strive for every benefit that belongs to them, but if it is not their own benefit, they should not reach out to take any of it, no matter how much it is.
"
"Yes, especially the latter, which is difficult for ordinary people to do." Lawrence said when he got off the carriage. "It is not difficult for everyone to strive for their own interests, but it is not difficult to curb the greed in their hearts.
It is really difficult for everyone to take benefits that do not belong to them, and each of us should be aware of this."
"Of course, Your Lordship, of course it should be so." After listening to what Lawrence said, Bach bowed to him again, and then guided him into the cannery.
The canning factory has not changed much compared to the past. However, after Lawrence brought more cheap tropical spices and adjusted his attitude towards workers, the production efficiency and profit margin of this factory were similar to those under the warlord's management in the past.
The comparison has been greatly improved.
This situation is caused by many reasons, the most important of which is that the quality of the warlords' subordinates is really appalling.
Since the conditions in this area are better than those of the small islands located in the sea of stars, warlords often give management positions as rewards to some of their subordinates who have meritorious service following them.
Compared with the personnel selected by Lawrence who had management experience, the personnel sent by the warlord had at most had experience in managing serfs or even slave plantations.
And obviously the methods of squeezing serfs used on a small island in the Sea of Stars are not allowed to be used here at all.
Not to mention that there are not many truly good people among the subordinates of the warlords. They are basically a group of guys who will never give up if they have the opportunity to make a fortune.
As a result, these factories have basically not made any money since they were run by warlords. They have just enriched one batch of managers after another.
And this is why Lawrence was able to quickly turn the meat cannery back into profitability without updating the factory machinery.
In this era, many factories can really make a lot of money as long as they can start operations smoothly. Unfortunately, too many people don't know how to run a factory.
"It seems that it is not too difficult to make money by running a factory these days." After visiting a canning factory, Saifeir came to this conclusion, and at the same time, he had new doubts in his heart.
"But why did you sell all the wool spinning mills and leather processing plants in the batch of factories you acquired?"
