Xue Ling smiled and said: "You are my father's friend. I call you 'uncle' and I must respect you. Furthermore, the next management depends on you. Even if I have the intention, I can't be good at it!"
From now on, I will have to rely on you to take care of me, uncle."
Zheng Sanyuan was so excited by what she said that he nodded excitedly.
"Thank you! Xiaoling, you trust me so much, which makes me... very touched! You and your father are both good-natured people, and both are worthy of lifelong friends. Don't worry, I will manage the factory well and never let you down.
You have worked so hard for such a trip."
He wiped his hands and said: "The wires have been prepared in advance. Let's settle down today. If we go quickly, we can test the machine tomorrow. As for the workers, I have already made preparations. In addition, I have wool and other things over there.
I'll have people move it in a moment. As long as the machine is normal, we can start making money right away. There are a lot of orders!"
"Okay! I'll leave it all to you, Uncle Zheng." Xue Ling clasped his fists.
Zheng Sanyuan laughed, turned around and drove away.
For the next two days, Zheng Sanyuan and several technicians stayed in the work shed and worked overtime until the morning of the third day when all the machines were successfully tested.
Xue Ling couldn't help but praise: "Dad, Uncle Zheng is really a hard-working person."
"Yes." Xue's father whispered: "He not only fights for his own affairs, but also for his friends' affairs. This is why he, a foreigner, can get along so well in the imperial capital. He has friends all over the world and does things naturally.
Very handy.”
Xue Ling further explained: "Yesterday, I accompanied him to apply for two accountants. One is responsible for the daily incoming and outgoing goods management, and the other is responsible for the workers. He said that the accounts are clear and clear, and every penny must be accounted for.
You also need to register clearly. The accountant is not only responsible for him, but also responsible for me. I feel more at ease when doing business with upright people."
"Don't you still have your dad?" Xue's dad said warmly: "The factory is mine, and the place is mine. With me here, what are you afraid of?"
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "Dad, I'm anxious about money! It's already March, almost April, and I'll probably have to invest one million in the middle of the year. I'm so poor now that I can only afford the travel expenses home."
"Hahaha!" Father Xue couldn't help but laugh and said: "Then it depends on the income of your factory. Xiao Zheng has few machines, even semi-automatic ones, and he can make more than one million yuan a month.
Aren’t there still two months in the middle of the year? If everything goes well, why don’t you need to worry about not having a million!”
Xue Ling giggled and geared up.
"Then I'll just wait to collect the money!"
After the machine was successfully used, Zheng Sanyuan hired a group of workers.
"My workers work in three shifts. I plan to transfer a batch here first. Everything here is fully automatic. As long as the workers are skilled, they can just watch after the operation."
Xue Ling asked: "There won't be a shortage of manpower there, right?"
"No." Zheng Sanyuan explained in a low voice: "The machines over there are too old and cannot be used too much. They need to be properly rested and maintained. I plan to remove the night shift so that the machines can have a good rest at night. This batch
Workers use it here, and it happens to be on two shifts, which is just right."
Then, he sent people to move wool from his warehouse, hired more packers, hired all the chefs in the canteen, and hired five security guards to take care of daily safety work.
Xue Ling was extremely satisfied when she saw that everything had been arranged for him.
Two days later, the factory opened for business and three huge firecrackers were set off!
The machine is fully automatic, requires less manpower, and works quickly. The lines come and go at a dizzying speed.
Mother Xue exclaimed: "Oh my god! It's so fast! We can weave for several days in just a short time!"
"So we need machines!" Xue Ling explained: "Manual work is too slow and cannot be popularized. If we want to benefit the public, we must use machines for mass production."
Mother Xue didn't understand this and waved her hand.
"When there are no machines, we have to rely on our hands! In the future, labor may be more valuable!"
"Definitely!" Xue Ling chuckled and said, "But not now. When artificial art becomes popular, I'll ask you to knit a few for me!"
Father Xue looked at the factory name above and laughed.
"Can't you think of a nice name? It's rare to be so lazy!"
Xue Ling shook his head: "Isn't this name nice? How special! Not only is it easy to remember, but you can also know who the boss is at a glance. Isn't it great?"
Zheng Sanyuan explained: "This is Xiaoling's decision. I also think it's very good and easy to remember. 'Sanling Sweater Factory' sounds nice and easy to remember - it's very good!"
Everyone laughed one after another.
The fully automatic machine works extremely fast, and the workers hardly need to use their hands. They take an hour's break at noon, half an hour in the evening, and get off work at twelve o'clock in the evening.
On the first day, the output was quite gratifying!
Zheng Sanyuan was extremely happy and said: "It is more than twice that of my old factory. With more machines, the total production value is more than four times that of my old factory."
After hearing this, Xue Ling breathed a long sigh of relief.
That night, she chatted with Cheng Tianyuan on the phone and told him the good news.
Cheng Tianyuan was also happy for her, but he missed her very much.
"Daughter-in-law, it's been two months."
Xue Ling's heart twitched when he said such a low voice.
"I miss you too...I miss Xiao Ranran very much."
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but urge: "Then come back soon."
Xue Ling said "Hmm" and said, "I will go back when things stabilize here."
Five days later, the first order was completed, totaling 100,000 pieces.
Zheng Sanyuan personally supervised the packaging and shipped it out quickly.
The next morning, Zheng Sanyuan brought the account book and said with a smile: "Xiao Ling, my customer settled the account and remitted it last night. Well, this row is the cost, and this row is the worker's expense. This is a profit of 220,000
More than five thousand. I suggest that the more than five thousand be put aside. In the future, these small sums can be used to advance workers' wages and daily use of the factory. We will only divide the large sum. By the end of the year, the decimals will add up to a large sum. No matter how much is left, we will
Divide carefully one more time."
"No problem!" Xue Lingling said happily.
Zheng Sanyuan asked the accountant to go to the bank and open two separate accounts for the two of them.
Xue Ling looked at the "110,000" on the bankbook and smiled happily.
"I finally have the money to go home! Haha!"
Three days later, she booked a flight back to the provincial capital.
Seeing that the factory was operating as usual, Xue's father couldn't help but urge: "Go back quickly! Xiao Ranran is still so young, and you, a mother, can't be without him."
"Dad, this is the cost price of the last batch of goods." Xue Ling said: "I just transferred it to your account at the bank. I have to go to a clothing store for half a day on my flight tomorrow morning, and I will not arrive in Rongcheng until the day after tomorrow.
"
"Yeah." Xue's father said warmly: "The weather is starting to get hot. You have to drink more water when you go out to avoid heatstroke."
"Hey!" Xue Ling took a long breath and said with a smile: "Mom bought a lot of things for me and Xiao Ranran. You have to take me to the airport tomorrow, otherwise I won't be able to carry them!"
"Okay!" Although Xue's father was reluctant to let her go, he didn't say anything and whispered: "There is a factory here, come back and check it out more. With your income now in place, you don't have to worry about the air tickets. Come here with Xiao Ranran."
"Don't worry, I plan to come over during the Mid-Autumn Festival!" Xue Ling said, "I'll come over in the next two or three months."
