A busy night.

Doug got up a little later than usual the next day.

He got dressed, but he still felt a little cold. When I opened the curtains, I found that it was already snowing outside the windows covered with a layer of white mist.

The snowflakes are not big, they are very finely broken.

When it falls on the ground, it melts immediately and does not become snow, but it makes the weather a little colder.

Doug went downstairs and found that none of the women were moving so quickly.

"Rose, come here. Doug beckoned Rose over, "Go and count how many female workers have frostbitten hands and feet." ”

Rose gave Doug a grateful look.

She was the link between the boss and the female workers, and in the factory where she had worked, she had never met a factory owner who counted the frostbite of female workers.

After she went to inquire, the female workers also cast grateful glances.

Doug didn't feel much in the grateful gaze.

For him, women workers are just tools of production.

Production tools are in a bad environment, and the efficiency becomes low. In the face of such a situation, of course he has to take care of it.

He waited for Rose's statistics as he walked around the workshop. Take a look at how to put as few stoves as possible in key locations to solve the problem of heating the workshop in winter.

If the steam engine was working, it wouldn't have to be so troublesome.

The gushing steam condenses into hot water, pours it into the pipes, and then passes through the radiator to solve the heating problem.

But unfortunately, although it has been renovated for a month, the semi-automatic "Monopoly" production line that Doug is looking forward to still has all kinds of problems.

It's something that can't be helped.

It's not that the mechanic whose name Doug can't remember clearly and his apprentice are lazy, it's that they're not first-class people themselves.

In addition, in this era, in order to build the semi-automatic production line that Doug expects, it needs to be done completely with a mechanical structure.

Although the machine with a purely mechanical structure looks handsome, it has a high probability of failure because of the excessive number of parts.

Think about the rivets that used to shoot Doug to the head before, if the female workers went to work on that kind of production line and died two or three headshots a day, I am afraid that the Clayden Printing and Dyeing Factory would become a Claydon human meat slaughterhouse.

Doug turned around, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Human subjective initiative, although to a certain extent, can change the world.

However, most of the time, the objective world is undesirable.

To live is to compromise.

"Boss, there are thirteen such female workers who have frostbite. Rose came over and reported.

"You go to Williams and apply for a grant to buy more frostbite medicine and tell them not to be reluctant to apply it. Doug commanded.

"Yes, I'll go!" Ross acted crisply.

Doug looked at Rose's back and smiled.

It is difficult to do an intermediate management position that is responsible for undertaking the tasks assigned by the boss and actually promoting the work to the workers.

A little leaning towards the boss is a thief who has nothing to say.

Tilt a little towards the workers, and the boss will think that you are not going to rebel.

Such two sides are not human work, and if Doug were to do it, he would never do it.

There's a place for everyone, though.

If he doesn't want to do it, there will always be people who will.

The vast majority of people have no plan for their own life or career, and they just live in the moment.

"Freeman, I need you to put a couple of stoves in the workshop. Thus is the edification. Doug handed Freeman a sketch.

Freeman and his two apprentices are still working around the production line. However, Doug did not hope much about it.

Now let the three of them toss the production line, instead of looking for a more professional person, mainly because Doug is not in a hurry.

The market for Monopoly in New Haven is so big, and there is already a bit of oversupply of female workers working in three shifts a day.

As for the "Monopoly" market in other places, although it has been tried to develop, the effect is not ideal.

Not every city has a Yale Academy, and not every city college student will be addicted to Monopoly.

As for the strategy of opening the bag and winning prizes, the farther away it is, the more difficult it is to implement. The middleman has a lower purchase price, and if the money is over, there is no reason why they should not open the bag themselves. Even if you put less, why not earn more if you can earn a little more?

As for the transformation of the assembly line of steam power, it is not needed now, it does not mean that it will not be used in the future, and it is good to use it as a technical reserve.

Freeman, who was physically strong, wiped his hands on the leather apron and wiped most of the black oil stains off before taking the drawing.

He has mixed feelings every day now.

On the one hand, he wants his boss to come here and see the results of his work.

On the other hand, he was afraid that his boss would be dissatisfied because of the progress.

When Doug came in just now, he even shrank a little at first.

However, the boss deserves to be a cultural person, and instead of insulting, he gave himself a new task.

It seems that he is still trusted!

"Mission accomplished!" Freeman assured, looking at the diagram on the paper.

Doug asked Freeman to produce a tin stove, and the biggest advantage of this small stove is that it is good in size and can be placed anywhere.

On the round stove, there are also rings made of iron sheets, layer upon layer, which can hold a kettle of any size.

As for why a kettle is placed on top of the stove.

On the one hand, it can provide hot water for the female workers, and on the other hand, it can make the air too dry and uncomfortable.

As for how to exhaust smoke?

Smoke is exhausted through iron pipes that fall into the air.

At the same time as the smoke is exhausted, the waste smoke in the pipe can continue to emit residual heat.

Freeman looked at the stove in the sketch, and the more he looked at it, the more he realized that the design was exquisite.

For a mechanical veteran like him, a machine may not understand the specific use, but at first glance, whether it is comfortable or not can represent the machine to a certain extent, and the design is not very reasonable.

This stove, despite its simple appearance, looks very comfortable. It will also seem to be easy to use.

This is probably a stove somewhere else......

Freeman thought to himself, and at the same time said, "In two days, I will definitely do it all!"

"Hmm. Doug nodded, "When you're done, just press the position on the map." I also have one in my office and bedroom, one in the office of Attorney McGill and Williams, and you can put one here if you need one. ”

"Thank you, boss!" Freeman said gratefully.

Just as he was grateful, Nathan, wrapped in thick clothes, ran up and said, "Boss, there's a guy who claims to be the captain of the ship who wants to see you!"
