After dinner, it was already twelve o'clock. According to the factory's management rules, everyone has a two-hour break and can go back to take a nap. If you want to work overtime, you can receive a two-dollar subsidy.
Most of the workers are students and have the habit of taking a nap, so they go back to school to rest.
Anyway, it's not far from the school, so I can catch up with the two o'clock class after taking a break.
Zheng Bajin and Li Yang also had difficulty working, so they rolled out an assembled bicycle.
After careful inspection, everything is normal and the brakes work very well. Zheng Bajin rode up and walked around the factory.
The performance is pretty good, but it's a bit heavy. However, it can be sold to rural areas. Anyway, people in this era like heavier ones. In addition to being strong, they also believe that heavier ones are better, and there is no such concept as material.
Therefore, in the previous life, there was a joke that a businessman specially added two iron bars as counterweights in the TV.
When he arrived at Li Yang's side, Zheng Bajin jumped out of the car, lifted it up and placed it heavily on the ground. He inserted it a few times with force. The steel drill did not deform at all. He couldn't help but nodded and said, "A bicycle like this can't be placed on the ground." It’s definitely easy to sell in rural areas.”
With that said, he threw the bicycle to Li Yang and said, "Would you like to give it a try?"
Li Yang was not polite, took the bicycle and started riding.
Zheng Bajin ran two steps behind him, jumped up, and sat on the shelf.
The shelf was specially designed by Zheng Bajin. It is made of very strong iron bars and will not deform even if it is loaded with three hundred kilograms.
I tried several cars in a row and Zheng Bajin was very satisfied.
After taking stock, hundreds of bicycles have been assembled. In a few days, they will be able to take one back to Qiucheng and sell it.
He doesn't plan to go home yet. He wants to wait until the first batch of goods is completed and then go back to Shili Village. He will start selling from his hometown first, and then open a store on Xiangjiezi.
For a while, he couldn't find a suitable person to look after the store for him.
As long as Zhang Xiaoyang watches first, I wonder what happened to his purchase of dry firewood?
Zheng Bajin thought that he should really set up a phone in Shili Village. Although it is very expensive now, it is convenient to contact him.
…
At night, Li Yang had nothing to do, so he thought of writing a letter to his comrade Gong Hu, explaining clearly the reason why he did not go to Zheng City. Otherwise, he would always feel that it was not handled properly and he would be sorry for his comrades.
I've been thinking about it, but don't know how to start?
Zheng Bajin looked at him rarely writing, and couldn't help but chuckled: "What, you want to write a love letter?"
"No, I want to write a letter to my comrade and explain to him the reason why I can't find him. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to be a good person in the future." Li Yang said seriously.
An imperceptible smile flashed across Zheng Bajin's face, and he thought to himself: Sure enough, he still cares about his comradeship. It seems that it's not easy to give up on not letting you know who your comrades have tricked. He smiled and said: "This is not easy. Tell me about the current situation of working here. By the way, after a while, after everything is straightened out, you will be a manager and be responsible for directing the workers to produce. , I’ll give you a thousand yuan a month. If you do well, you will be the director of the factory here, and the entire factory belongs to us two brothers."
Zheng Bajin drew a big enough cake for him. Li Yang was unmoved and said seriously: "How can I dare to be the director of the factory? I just want to start with you, so you should be the one. Besides, I can't control it. so many people."
"It's okay, they will listen to you gradually." Zheng Bajin said with a smile, "As for me, I can't stay in the factory every day. I have to go out to the market, do sales and other things. After producing cars, We still have to find a way to sell it, otherwise, where will the money come from?”
Li Yang nodded and said: "That's right, brother, if you go into sales, you will definitely be able to sell well with your sharp tongue."
Zheng Bajin was stunned and said awkwardly: "It's definitely not enough to just rely on words. You have to look at the product. By the way, why don't you write it down?"
"Okay, okay, just write." Li Yang said, and really started writing on the letter paper. He first expressed his apology to the other party, and then stated the reason why he did not attend the appointment according to what Zheng Bajin just said.
Zheng Bajin didn't read what he wrote, but took out a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and read it.
In my previous life, I read a lot of books, which are still stored in my brain. I took a casual look at them as a refresher, and glanced at Li Yang from time to time.
After watching Li Yang finish writing the letter, he read it several times silently, and made a few corrections. Then he folded it with satisfaction, put it in an envelope, and sealed it.
Zheng Bajin said with a smile: "Has it been written? Do you feel a lot more at ease now?"
Li Yang nodded, as if he was relieved.
"By the way, with the comrades who got along well with each other in the past, apart from this one named Gong Hu, shouldn't I also write a letter and talk to them about daily matters?" Zheng Bajin suggested.
"That's right." Li Yang nodded, picked up the pen again, and started writing again.
After writing the second letter, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening. Zheng Bajin had already gone to bed and placed the military book on the bedside table.
…
A week later, there were one thousand bicycles in the factory.
Zheng Bajin was ready to bring him back to Qiucheng, but before leaving, he had to pay his salary to stabilize people's hearts.
When people heard that wages were going to be paid, they were very happy and excited. For these students, this was the first money they had earned. The meaning was naturally very different from the living expenses they had asked their parents for before. It showed that, From now on, they can support themselves.
Zheng Bajin withdrew the cash. According to the previous agreement, everyone was still in the probation period, and each person received 200 yuan per month. Although he had not worked for a full month, he stipulated that wages would be paid on the 25th of every month.
He glanced at the students in the audience, their eyes were shining, as if they were planning for this huge sum of money for them. Some plan to buy two new clothes, and some decide to send half of them back home to make their parents happy.
Zheng Bajin started to call the names, and those who were called came up to the stage to receive the money, which was very ceremonial.
After they received the money, they were all very happy and discussed how to spend the money.
However, a few students were a little frightened when their names were not called. Some of them could no longer keep their composure and began to question Zheng Bajin: "Boss, why weren't we called?"
"What's your name?" Zheng Bajin glanced at him.
"Gao Shengqi!"
"Oh, your name is Gao Shengqi!" Zheng Bajin said with some surprise.
"Yes, I came here on the same day as everyone else. Why don't I get paid?"
"You, I've seen it all. You are the one who works hard and cheats. I am officially informing you that you are not qualified for the work here. You should go back. However, you can only work for a few days. You won't be short of money, but it's not a month's salary, but a daily settlement. Even if it's half a month, I'll give you a hundred yuan, do you have any objections?" Zheng Bajin looked at the man and said in a deep voice said.
"This..." Gao Shengqi was speechless. A classmate once advised him to work hard, otherwise his boss will deduct his salary if he finds out.
He didn't take it seriously and said these people were really stupid and the boss didn't see it.
Unexpectedly, the boss actually remembered every move he made. Of course he didn't dare to have any opinions, otherwise the one hundred yuan would be wasted.
He wanted to beg Zheng Bajin to give him another chance, but in front of so many classmates, he couldn't let go, so he had to take the money and leave in shame.
Fortunately, this is just an internship and not a formal job. Otherwise, I would really regret it for the rest of my life.
"Who else hasn't been named?" Zheng Bajin looked at the people in the audience.
There was silence, and no one answered. Even the few people who didn't receive any money could only pretend to be confused, thinking only: It seems that they really have to work hard, otherwise, not being paid is a small thing, and being humiliated in public is a big deal.
