Qin Chuan was thinking wildly, when he saw the black panther who had been sandwiching Yuan Dundun's little head between his two front legs, quietly lying at his feet and enjoying the warm time, raised his head suddenly, and his two pointed little ears suddenly stood up, and a pair of black and bright eyes shot a vigilant gaze in the direction of the door.

Qin Chuan's actions made Qin Chuan also startled, and he listened quietly for a moment, except for the faint sound of people outside the building and the slight sound of the rolling mill turning from the backyard, he didn't hear any other sounds. However, Qin Chuan clearly knew the power of the purebred border collie at his feet, and the panther must have sensed something. Qin Chuan wanted to get up and go to the window to check, but saw that the black panther had put its little head down again and closed its eyes comfortably.

Qin Chuan knew that nothing had happened, so he reached out and patted the panther softly on the back, and leaned back in the chair with confidence, just as he was about to continue thinking about his thoughts, but the door downstairs was pushed open from the outside, and then Li Mingfang's reproach came from below.

"You bastard, you can't be lighter, our boss has been very tired in the past two days, in case he falls asleep and wakes you up, see how I clean you up."

"Oh, Sister-in-law Wu, is the owner upstairs?"

With Sister-in-law Wu's reply, there was a slight sound on the stairs, and Qin Chuan could hear the footsteps of the two people, but both of them put their steps very lightly.

Qin Chuan looked at his watch, the time was already half past two, and after hesitating for a moment, he still stood up and walked towards the staircase.

With a slight sound of the stairs, Li Mingfang, who was sweating profusely but had a happy face, followed closely behind him, carrying a bulging small cloth bag in his hand, and Chu Yunfei, who was also sweating on his forehead, grinning and not looking like he had just been reprimanded, turned out lightly from the turn of the stairs, and saw Qin Chuan, who had a faint hint of nervousness on his face, waiting at the staircase, Li Mingfang took a few steps and almost trotted upstairs.

"Boss, it's all done, we're back."

Li Mingfang wiped a handful of sweat, and before he could catch his breath, he happily wanted to report the situation to Qin Chuan.

The moment he saw Li Mingfang and Chu Yunfei, Qin Chuan already understood that Li Mingfang's going to the cloth shops inside and outside the Tianjin Acropolis to sell his colored cloth must have gone smoothly, and his anxious heart finally calmed down.

Since this is the case, Qin Chuan's expression became more and more indifferent.

Qin Chuan waved his hand and said, "Lao Li, don't worry. Come, you and Yunfei sit down first, drink tea and moisten your throat before it's too late. ”

While speaking, Qin Chuan walked to the coffee table, took two cups and put them on the coffee table, and personally poured tea that was already a little cold for the two cups, and then sat on the sofa behind the coffee table.

Li Mingfang sat on the sofa on Qin Chuan's right hand side, picked up the teacup and took two sips, cleared his throat and put it down.

Chu Yunfei didn't sit down, but put the cloth bag he was carrying in his hand on the coffee table with a clatter, and when he heard the sound, he knew that the bag was full of Yingyang.

Chu Yunfei stood in front of the coffee table, reached out and grabbed a full cup of warm tea, and poured a full cup of tea into his stomach with two sips.

It's just that Chu Yunfei didn't sit down after drinking tea, but retreated to the side and stood up in a proper manner.

Qin Chuan, out of his own considerations, asked Chu Yunfei and Chu Yuntao last night not to always call him the owner and teacher, because Chu Yuntao was only eighteen years old, Chu Yunfei had just arrived seventeen, Qin Chuan reported that he was nineteen years old, and according to his age, Qin Chuan asked them to change their names to eldest brother. Although Chu Yuntao insisted on being called a teacher, Chu Yunfei had already changed his words, with Chu Yunfei's temperament, he liked Qin Chuan's owner very much, and he didn't think anything about it, but he thought it was more affectionate.

It's just that after being told by Chu Yuntao in private last night, although he still calls Qin Chuan his eldest brother in private, when there are people, he is more formal in front of Qin Chuan.

Li Mingfang just evened out his breath, and he couldn't suppress his excitement, and hurriedly told Qin Chuan about the situation when he went to sell colored cloth.

"Owner, the quality of our colored cloth is really not said, we pulled a few large cars of colored cloth on the street, in the sun our colored cloth color is more bright, in the street there are many people asking where our colored cloth came from? And where are you going to send it? How much does it cost? There were even a few people who were in a hurry, so they followed us directly to the cloth shop to buy it. ”

"The shopkeeper of the cloth shop is a person who knows the goods, the shopkeeper of the Maoxiang cloth in the British Concession, his eyes lit up when he saw our colored cloth, asked the price, pulled my sleeve for fear that I would run yes and not let go, I asked for 200 horses, I looked at this posture, I knew that we had fired this shot, so I said that I didn't sell him so much."

"Originally, according to your instructions, we should have sold him more cloth shops of his size, but I had a lot of thoughts, and I wanted to run a few more, so that our Aurora brand color cloth would be known to everyone in Tianjin, so I only sold him ten horses. I told him that if he wanted to buy more of our colored cloth, he would have to wait until early tomorrow to come to the factory and pay directly to pick up the goods. ”

Li Mingfang's approach, Qin Chuan agrees very much, this is a very important and effective empirical method in business psychology summarized by later generations.

Li Mingfang didn't know what Qin Chuan was thinking, and continued to say excitedly.

"The rest of the shopkeepers are the same as the shopkeepers, but I sell them a maximum of ten horses, and the smaller ones only six horses. On the way, I paid out of my own pocket and spent dozens of copper plates to buy pancakes and fruits for the coachman and Yunfei and a few of them to protect the factory, and I ate them all the way, and I just returned to the factory. ”

Li Mingfang, who was excited, seemed to suddenly think of something, suddenly stopped, reached out and carefully took out a palm-sized silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Qin Chuan.

"The owner, this time a total of 6,200 yuan was recovered."

He pointed to the small cloth bag on the coffee table again: "I took back the fraction of 200 yuan, and the remaining 6,000 was inconvenient to hold, so I exchanged it for a silver ticket in the silver number." On this day alone, we earned 2,200 yuan. ”

Qin Chuan just glanced at the silver ticket in Li Mingfang's hand and didn't take it.

"Lao Li, you keep the silver tickets and these eagles, just keep the accounts, and the day after tomorrow we will take all the money we have recovered to buy grey cloth, let's wait for the rice to go to the pot now."

Li Mingfang, who was still excited, nodded and said: "Owner, you can rest assured, our color cloth is in demand, and the money will come back quickly, so you can't make a mistake." ”

Li Mingfang said again while holding the silver ticket in his arms.

"Boss, I think we will let the workers work half a night tonight, if we can have three hundred colored cloths, we will not only be able to earn more tomorrow, but also deal with those cloth shop shopkeepers, otherwise our door will have to be crowded by those cloth shop shopkeepers tomorrow."

Li Mingfang's words made Qin Chuan unable to suppress his joy any longer, and couldn't help laughing。。。。。。

"Lao Li, I think so, originally we agreed that your monthly salary is twenty-five yuan Yingyang, but now let's change it, from this month onwards, your salary will be doubled, and it will grow to fifty. If our factory is doing well, and there is a new factory for you to manage, then don't say fifty, that is, five hundred, you can earn, keep you for a few years, and you can afford to buy decent real estate in Tianjin, even worse than the compradors in those foreign firms. ”

As soon as Qin Chuan opened his mouth, he doubled Li Mingfang's salary, and the words behind him were even more tempting, which made Li Mingfang's face flush with joy, and his heart was about to jump out of his throat with excitement.

Although he was very happy, Li Mingfang said: "Don't add any more money, the owner has already given a lot, and if you want to add more money, it will catch up with the master in the county government." ”

"Lao Li."

Qin Chuan didn't continue, but watched Li Mingfang change the topic.

"Yesterday we just worked overtime, and if we have to work overtime, the workers will be very tired. Besides, it's not a long-term solution. ”

"It's better to do this, you immediately arrange to find some more people, deploy the new and old workers, divide them into two shifts, and do not stop work day and night, we also follow the example of the Qing officials, every foreigner's Sunday, the workers of the two shifts are suspended for a day of rest, on this day to concentrate on the maintenance and repair of equipment, and a few more half days a week to repair and inspect the equipment."

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the officials' vacations were three days off a month, in addition to holidays, and there were almost more than 50 days a year. In the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty basically copied the Ming Dynasty's vacation system, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, the officials were more relaxed, not counting holidays, and the officials had to take a day off every Sunday. However, this is only the treatment of officials, and ordinary people do not have this blessing no matter what they do.

"In addition, you remember that it is best to recruit workers who have fled from other places to come to Tianjin, and we recruit such people, not only to solve their urgency, but also to give them something to eat. In this way, not to mention themselves, even their families will be grateful to us, and they will do their best to do things. ”

Li Mingfang knew that Qin Chuan's intention was that he was afraid that the workers would be too tired.

But don't say that there is no precedent for the entire Pingtong people in Tianjin Wei to work and earn a living, even if you look at the entire Qing Dynasty, there is no owner who does this. What's more, according to the current sales trend of Aurora brand colored cloth, every day of work stoppage, it is a large amount of money not to pick up, thinking about it makes Li Mingfang's heart ache.

Li Mingfang hesitated while thinking about how to persuade Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan understood Li Mingfang's thoughts, and waved his hand: "Lao Li, don't think about it too much, just do what I say." Hurry up to recruit people now, and in addition, the uniforms of our workers must be done as soon as possible. ”

As soon as Qin Chuan mentioned the matter of uniforms, Li Mingfang's heart trembled again. Now more than 60 people are more than 120 sets, if you find another group of people, it is almost 100 people, counting the people of the factory protection team, that is about 200 sets of new clothes, that is a lot of cloth, this is a lot of money!
