Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Assembly Line

In this world, there are people who point to anything, some rely on wisdom, some rely on knowledge, some rely on fathers, some rely on friends, and some people are born opportunists.

Xu Deshan's second notice was issued, and someone found this wonderful business opportunity, thinking about it, as long as you find ten people and send them to the Terraigma Division, you can get a hundred yuan for nothing, which is equivalent to ten yuan for a person's head, and this is pure earning, as long as you run errands and say two words, you don't need any additional pay, one person ten Wen, ten people Baiwen, one hundred people will be one or two silver, one or two silver, even in the Daimyo Mansion, this is also a windfall.

Those who usually have nothing to do, idle and wander in the streets and alleys, or the scoundrels, are the people who benefit the most from this notice, and when they make it clear that the Terracotta Division will not cheat, they immediately go to their sphere of influence, those places where the laborers gather, these laborers, who are worried that there is no work to do, do not need to play tricks, only hear that the work is coming, and one by one they will drop their heads.

For these laborers, where to work is not to work, as long as there is money to get it, not to mention that this is to work for the yamen, at the very least, they will not be in arrears of wages, and moreover, to work for the yamen, there is also a brilliance on the face when they say it, and it is not the capital to brag a little more to make themselves brag.

So, whether it was coaxing or cheating, or sincerely, anyway, the front of the Terracotta Division was lively, and the entire Daimyo Mansion was afraid that half of the idle labor force was concentrated in front of the Terracotta Division, and suddenly the originally quiet and majestic Terracotta Division gate became like a vegetable market, with people crowding and crowding.

At this time, Xu Deshan's benefits of spending money to find people are reflected, the labor is disobedient, but the splash wants money, and when the poor person registers in front, he gives priority to the orderly and non-chaotic queues, and those who are chaotic and noisy are all in the back.

Those street splashes, no matter what kind of officials and rich businessmen you are, they are not afraid of you, if you reason with me, he will play tricks with you, if you come hard with me, he will stalk you to the death, if you pretend to be pitiful, he can still be ruthless, it is simply not boiled and can't be moved, just like the stone in the pit is smelly and hard.

They are so difficult, but there is only one thing that can stop them, and that is money.

It can be said that there is no one in the world who does not like money, but these scoundrels are the most persistent, the most unscrupulous, and the most unscrupulous group of people who are the most persistent about money, and everything they have is for the sake of money.

And now that he has wasted half his day, he has found labor for the Terracotta Division, but people think that the people he has found are noisy and don't give him money, how can this work, isn't this a tired stupid boy, some of them want to quarrel with the registered poor people, but the row of Xueliang steel knives exposed behind them let them know that this is not a place where they can come nonsense.

Since the Terracotta Division can't afford to offend itself, then it can only take those laborers to get angry, these splashes have been angry with each other, and they have become a good boy who maintains order in front of the Terracotta Division, and they are called laborers to line up, not allowed to talk to each other, let alone walk around casually, if there are those who dare not listen, these splashes naturally have the means to make him obedient.

In this way, the order is much better, and the speed of poor registration is much faster, those who are sloppy wait for their turn, and then wait to receive the money, but don't think that Xu Deshan's money is so easy to make.

These laborers were brought by the prank, and after carefully checking and registering the identity, appearance, address and other information of the laborers themselves, they finally had to write down the information that came to them.

In Xu Deshan's words, since it is the people you brought, then you have to be responsible for them, the announcement said, these people can only get money if they work hard, abide by discipline, and complete their work, although this money can be given to you now, but if something happens to the person you found, or they run away without permission, or snoop on secrets, not only these people will be detained and questioned, but even you don't want to run, don't blame the officials of the Daimyo Mansion for finding your door, the iron lock is ruthless.

When these pranksters saw Xu Deshan's little trick, their faces were going to turn blue, if they also wrote their names on this paper, they would have pigtails in the hands of the Terracotta Division in the future, who knew what these people they had in mind, in case anyone couldn't think of it, it didn't matter if he was looking for death, wouldn't he have to put himself on it.

These splashes have seen the danger, but they are also reluctant to get the money at their fingertips, please, they have already found people for them, and they have also helped people line up and maintain order, how much effort did it take, and in the end they left by themselves with a word, wouldn't it be in vain to work for others.

Even if someone has the idea of breaking up in two and breaking the jar, and walking away, taking away the labor they brought and letting the Terracotta Division not recruit people, it is too late now, these laborers are not dead, people have seen the Terracotta Division recruiting, even if they take them away, people will not come back by themselves, and when the time comes, they will really be Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, and they are not people inside and out.

Fortunately, these pranksters often wander around the streets all day long, and often deal with these laborers, so for the people they brought, regardless of whether they are locals or outsiders, most of them can be regarded as knowing the roots, so after weighing the pros and cons, most of the pranksters still gritted their teeth to vouch for these people, of course

, If there is something that is really unclear, these splashes will not be unable to live with their own lives for ten cents and blow those people out, so that those who have an unclear origin will naturally be excluded.

Of course, Xu Deshan's plan was actually habitually rejected by Jia Changchao, in Jia Changchao's opinion, these splashes were originally an unstable factor in the Daimyo's mansion, and they could still be expected to vouch for others? Xu Deshan is a little too whimsical.

Xu Deshan's answer to Jia Changchao is also very simple, adults are in a high position, naturally they don't know the situation in the market, these splashes are the most solid supporters of the Daimyo's Mansion, think about it, these splashes can have a little heroism, and they also became kings in the morning, and they have already found another way, so why bother to be this spurned scoundrel in the Daimyo's Mansion.

Jia Changchao was persuaded by Xu Deshan's philosophy again, so he could only let Xu Deshan come to Hu, so on the first day of the recruitment of the Soldiers and Horses, more than 400 people were recruited.

When I came to a strange place, especially after seeing the splashes who called me to take money and leave, and threw myself here, these laborers couldn't help but feel like they had been sold, and they were nervous and uneasy, especially when they recruited their own small ones, or the Imperial Court Soldiers and Horses, recruiting so many people at once, it wouldn't be that there was a war on the frontier, and they tricked themselves into coming here to be a strong man.

People are afraid of death, although these people are hungry and full every day, and they are not comfortable, but as the saying goes, it is better to die than to live, compared with hunger, death is undoubtedly more frightening, this emotion continues to spread among the crowd, and finally, when it reaches a critical point, it erupts.

Laborers, living at the bottom of society, have to face the oppression of scoundrels, street patrol servants, rich merchant slaves and others every day, or they will be tortured by them to lose their temper completely, or they will be even more arrogant than them, so that they dare not provoke themselves easily.

Obviously, there were not a few short-tempered laborers in the group of laborers recruited, and when one of the leaders jumped out, the laborers' team was instantly chaotic, shouting and scolding.

However, these people are obviously not thoughtful, usually in the streets and alleys, which merchant's house, such a trouble, in order not to make a big trouble, someone will come forward to calm down, whoever makes the most trouble, who gets the cheaper.

But where is this, here is the Daimyo Mansion Soldiers and Horses, and it is Xu Deshan who leads all this, Xu Deshan has already calculated that this group of people is not easy to manage, so he first borrowed five hundred elite soldiers from Ming Hao, and waited left and right, waiting to find an excuse to take people to open the sword, and now there are people making trouble, where are the soldiers who have already been ordered, where are they polite, shooting in a row, swords and guns forward, and pressing the laborers.

Think about it, these laborers are just making trouble on the streets, but where have you seen the murderous atmosphere on this battlefield, these soldiers are the elite composition of the Soldiers and Horses Division, most of them are veterans who have killed people on the battlefield, just looking at their eyes, they scared the laborers one by one, and they retreated one after another, and they did not dare to have the idea of resisting.

It didn't matter if everyone retreated, they subconsciously stayed away from those who took the lead in making trouble, and as a result, those who made trouble were left in place and vacated.

Xu Deshan has always believed that under normal circumstances, it is necessary to be reasonable when encountering things, and when his fist is bigger than others, using his fist is the best way to solve things, so these thorns who dared to make trouble in the Terracotta Division were quickly cleared out of the people's ranks, and after a hard lesson, they were driven out of the Terracotta Division.

After rectifying the discipline of the team, Xu Deshan finally belatedly appeared, because someone had already been a villain, so Xu Deshan's appearance was to send sweet dates to the laborers, Xu Deshan first brought a new identity to the laborers, that is, workers.

Don't underestimate this identity, what is labor, that is, people who work hard to eat, the lowest level of society, the most worthless, and what is a worker, is a person who earns money from work, as long as it is a job, there is a certain technicality, there is a certain irreplaceability, and there is a certain social status, it can be said that Xu Deshan is secretly changing the concept and buying people's hearts, but after Xu Deshan explained the concept of these two names clearly, the nature of these people is obviously excited.

Then, Xu Deshan introduced the main content of this work, that is, according to the list given to him by Ming Hao, he made all kinds of ordnance listed above, which was messy and had everything. Of course, Xu Deshan's mere listing of these names obviously did not touch the workers much, but when Xu Deshan introduced these weapons, he closely linked the serious situation of the tense confrontation on the Song-Liao border, and invited the brothers of the Terracotta Division to share a few touching cases sensationally.

Then, it's time to serve hard dishes and talk about wages, which is the main reason why people come here to work, after all, there are old and young, and they can't be fooled by coming here to listen to a few words.

Xu Deshan brought a new concept to the workers, that is, piecework wages, this concept is obviously not small to the workers, in the past, they went to find work, most of them negotiated in advance how much money a day, go in the morning, give money at night, among which will be lazy to brush flowers, just do less, if you are willing to work hard, you will do more, but now it is different, as long as you do more, you will earn

Much more, apparently such a policy has won the popularity of the large logarithmic.

And piecework wages also have an advantage, that is, it can stimulate people's subjective initiative, think about it, you work for a day, no matter how much work you do, the salary is that anyway, and piecework wages, although Xu Deshan has already calculated that even if you work hard for a day, the money you earn will be about the same as the original day's money, but every time you do a little work, you can feel that your wealth has increased a little, and this feeling is definitely not the same.

After saying that, the most important thing is that the rest is pure welfare, although in terms of wages, Xu Deshan did not increase too much, but in terms of welfare, Xu Deshan was rare and generous, stipulating that as long as it is a worker in the Terracotta Division, three meals a day, the Terracotta Division is in charge of food, and everyone is full, there is no limit.

This is this, it has attracted the attention of the vast majority of workers, you know, at this time, the goal of these workers is to have three meals a day to eat, which is also their biggest expense, and Xu Deshan solved their biggest problem at once, the rest of the wages, isn't it pure leftover, if so, the workers make a lot of money.

However, Xu Deshan used some small means here, three meals a day, the rice is the rice, but whether it is breakfast or dinner, the time is set too outrageous, Xu Deshan stipulates that the meal will be opened at four watches in the morning, and the meal will be opened at the same time in the evening, and each meal will be limited to half an hour, and it will not wait for the expiration date.

This is very learned, although there is no regulation of the working hours of the workers, but in the early morning, in order to eat this breakfast, must get up early in the morning, and come early, eat breakfast early, far away, can not go back to sleep a return to sleep, and the wages here are piece-rated, I am afraid that everyone will seize the time, to do a while of work, and dinner, is the same reason.

What does Xu Deshan lack now, he lacks money, and he lacks time, the rebellion of Maitreya Buddhism is just around the corner, and when the time comes, he doesn't want the Song army to fight with Maitreya Buddhism with rags, so he must hurry up every minute and every second to make more ordnance.

If you talk about overtime or something, maybe the workers have resistance, even if they pay more, the effect is not very good, but in the form of eating to compensate, the effect is surprisingly good, a meal can be worth a few dollars, let go of eating, a meal at most a few copper plates, but in this way, everyone's working hours should also be doubled out of thin air, in Xu Deshan's view, this is better than trading, cost-effective, and done.

After getting the approval of the workers, all that remained was to arrange the work, and these people, according to their size and age, were divided into several large groups, and each group, led by an officer of the Ordnance Division, went to different sites, where there were professional craftsmen from the Ordnance Division's foundry to teach them how to make different parts of different ordnance.

Yes, what Xu Deshan wants to do is streamlined operation, the speed of a person's ordnance manufacturing is related to his proficiency, the higher the proficiency, the faster the speed, if a person is asked to learn a complete set of ordnance production process, it will not be possible to work hard for a few months, let alone be proficient in production, but now Xu Deshan only needs them to learn to make a part of ordnance, or assemble a certain part of ordnance, so it is much simpler.

It's not a very complicated thing, most people, after the craftsman introduced and demonstrated, they know what they want to do, and so on to send the materials, make it by hand, find a problem and then ask for advice, and then make, and repeat, after a few cycles, most people can correctly manufacture a qualified part, and the rest is to increase their proficiency and create more production value in continuous production.

This process was carried out one after another a few days, with the first day of 400 people as the foundation, the second day immediately another 300 people signed up, after all, the signboard of the Terracotta Division and the temptation of free meals is too great, after the entire production process has stabilized, the workers recruited by the Terracotta Division have reached a thousand, and there is a rising trend, some people in the Terracotta Division suggested stopping recruitment, but Xu Deshan did not agree.

A thousand people, even in the top five metropolises of the Song Dynasty such as the Daimyofu, is not a small number, especially these people are all from labor, and now they have been recruited by the Soldiers and Horses, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of outside laborers, scarce, and wages are also rising, and when they rise the most, wages can even be doubled, and there is still a situation where there is no market.

When they first came to the Terracotta Division, according to the price at the time, they made money, but who made the current market rise, according to the current salary, they have lost money, and they work in the Terracotta Division, stability is stable, but every day they get up early and are greedy for darkness, not everyone can stand it, so some people want to leave.

Xu Deshan also does not stop these people from leaving, people have personal freedom, who can control it, even if they don't leave, eat here and don't work, it's not good for anyone, it's just that they go back, but they can't go in vain, they need to pay a liquidated damages of 30 Wen, well, the liquidated damages are not good, then say it's a handling fee, what? Don't give? Did you write the information you registered in vain, I am here as a soldier and horse division, all the right to interpret belongs to me, if you have the ability, you can go and try it.
