Chapter 13 Steam Factory

The time for cultivation always passed quickly, and before I knew it, two days had passed.

In the past two days, Li Feng has gradually stabilized his realm, and since breaking through the Innate Cultivation Pill Realm, Li Feng has not tried to cultivate.

"According to this cultivation speed, I'm afraid it will take me half a year to break through the Innate Void Pill Realm, and if it weren't for this divine skill, I'm afraid it would be difficult to break through in three years. Li Feng sighed.

"Forget it, don't think about it yet, right now, the steam engine is my top priority. Thinking of this, Li Feng took the drawings that had been prepared long ago and went to the blacksmith shop.

Inside the blacksmith's shop.

"Boss, can you make all these things according to the drawings?" Li Feng said, and at the same time handed over the drawings in his hand.

"These things are not difficult to make, they can be made. The blacksmith shop owner looked at the parts on the drawings and said, and wondered what Li Feng wanted these things for, after all, he had never heard of many things on the drawings.

After the blacksmith owner had made all the parts, Li Feng paid and put the things in the storage space.

After leaving the blacksmith shop, Li Feng went to the restaurant to eat again.

"Little two, old three. Li Feng said to the shopkeeper.

After dinner, Li Feng returned home and began to study the steam engine.

"It worked. Li Feng tried to use the freshly built steam engine to try to drive the loom he had already prepared.

Before, when Li Feng was preparing the loom, he had already decided how to make the steam engine drive the loom.

The next day.

Li Feng spent a whole morning, first purchased a place to be used as a steam factory, and spent sixteen gold coins, after all, this is just a factory, the lot, the decoration is not too good, as long as the place is enough.

In the afternoon, Li Feng posted another job poster, which showed that the salary of recruiting a worker was 20 silver dollars a month.

In the Immortal Cultivation Continent, the annual income of the people at the bottom is generally about 30~50 silver dollars, and Li Feng pays a salary of 20 silver dollars a month, so a person's salary in a year has exceeded two gold coins, which can even make them take a step towards the middle class, at least there is hope.

Because Li Fengfa's salary is very high, after the news spread, in less than an hour, there were already hundreds of people in front of Li Feng's factory to sign up.

Why was the steam factory able to make a lot of money? Isn't it because the labor cost was reduced and the production quantity was extremely large, so that the price of goods was reduced, so that the goods were competitive enough, so Li Feng only selected a dozen people, which was more than enough for Li Feng's steam factory.

After one night, Li Feng had prepared five steam engines, enough to drive hundreds of looms in this world, and at the same time, Li Feng also purchased a certain amount of coal and sufficient raw materials for weaving.

As soon as the morning dawned, Li Feng first gathered the workers, taught them how to produce, and assigned jobs to these workers.

In order to keep the machine running, Li Feng divided the workers into night workers and day workers.

Now Li Feng is like a capitalist.

"I didn't expect that I also had my own factory, and it seems that the knowledge I learned in school before is still useful. Li Feng looked at the factory he had built and said excitedly.

In one day, Li Feng instructed the workers to place the machines and cloth machines in preparation for the next day.

Evening.

"Okay, everyone did a good job today, and one person will give you 50 copper plates as a reward. Li Feng said to the dozen or so workers in front of him.

"Thank you, thank you. After all, it was 50 copper plates, and they got 50 copper plates after a busy day, and they didn't count their wages yet, how could these workers not be happy.

"Ma Xiaoming, Ma Xiaoyang, you two brothers are working very seriously today, I will promote you to director without exception, double your salary, and the factory will be handed over to you two brothers to take care of when I am not there." Li Feng said.

Although the Ma brothers didn't understand what a director was, they at least knew that their wages had increased, and they still let them manage the workshop, so they were particularly excited.

"Okay, since there's nothing to do, let's disperse, remember to come to work tomorrow. After Li Feng finished speaking, he left and walked home.

The next day.

In one day, the factory also began to work, a cloth machine can produce one piece of cloth a day, can work day and night, a machine can produce three pieces of cloth, after all, the steam-run cloth machine does not need to rest, and people need to rest every one to two hours of work.

In the market, the price of a piece of cloth is ten copper plates, and generally a piece of cloth can earn 4~6 copper plates, because a cloth machine needs one person, and a hundred cloth machines need one hundred people to work, so the labor cost is high, and the profit is lower.

Li Feng's steam factory is naturally different, the original price of 10 copper plates and a piece of cloth on the market, Li Feng reduced to 6 copper plates and a piece of cloth, a day 100 looms run non-stop, a day to produce 300 pieces of cloth, a piece of cloth Li Feng's price is 6 copper plates, minus the cost price can net 2 copper plates (usually excluding labor, the cost of cloth is 3 copper plates, and the extra 1 copper plate is the consumption of coal, and the most basic minerals in the world are also available, like coal).

At the same time, because the cloth is produced by machines, the workers are not tired from their work, which is the benefit of machines.

A day passed, Li Feng counted the copper plates in front of the table at his home.

"In just one day, I have earned 600 copper plates, and in a year, I will earn 200,000 copper plates, and if I can build more steam factories and find a way to get the cloth out, then the wealth I will earn will be amazing. Li Feng looked at the copper plate in front of him, meditated, and already daydreamed.
