Chapter 77 Foundation Building (End)

Returning to Nan'ao Island, Chen Kaimeng discovered that after co-writing and meeting with Zheng Chenggong, the problem of attracting immigrants was still not solved. This matter was not only because he did not ask, but also because of Zheng Chenggong's attitude.

When you see an idle labor force, you may want to draw it into the military camp. You are satisfied with the expansion of the army and draw people to work on Nan'ao Island. Naturally, you don't need to bother asking anymore.

The old departments of the Arms Bureau only need to carry out their work step by step. In the past four months of this year, a large number of weapons have been produced, and they are still being produced. As long as Hong Xu's

The raw materials can keep up, and with Zheng Chenggong's current speed of military expansion and the types of weapons he needs, it will be enough to meet his needs.

The order to merge the military uniform tailoring workshop into the Ordnance Bureau was conveyed at the first opportunity. Including the officials in charge, there was great joy - let alone others, the welfare of the Ordnance Bureau is the best among all departments.

Even that official has been transferred to Haiyang County to be the chief clerk. Isn't it wonderful to make a leap from a clerk to an official?

Like the original Ordnance Bureau, that is, the arms workshop last year, the Military Uniform Tailoring and Manufacturing Workshop did not have many employees, just a dozen reluctant tailors, and that was it. Chen Kai turned around and assessed

Once you take a look at your work efficiency, you can no longer stand it any longer.

Chen Kai, who was accustomed to the old-fashioned production model and old-fashioned management model, found it unbearable. He even felt that even the rooms in the workshop were gray and lifeless.

Immediately, Chen Kai announced that the military uniform tailoring workshop would be merged into the Ordnance Bureau, and all personnel would enjoy the same treatment as the Ordnance Bureau. Immediately, there was a burst of joy. Probably if Chen Kai had not been here, I am afraid that there would have been cheers.

There was thunder.

With the improved salary, the management model of the Arms Bureau will naturally have to keep up. Chen Kai specially brought Mouse Beard and a supervisor over and asked them to be responsible for the work here. Of course, Zheng Chenggong was far from being able to achieve what he achieved with these alone.

It was a mission, so Chen Kai decided to come up with another trick, a trick similar to the one he used in the Ordnance Bureau earlier.

"You are all experts, and I can trust your craftsmanship. However, if you cut it like this, you will never be able to meet the needs of the army in this life."

After scolding him with his fingers, Chen Kai then said to the master-level tailors: "Today, I will give you one day to wait. You don't have to do anything. According to your memory and relevant records, I will put together some of the most recent ones."

Common clothing sizes and making ready-made clothes are all left to Cai Guanshi."

After telling these people, Chen Kai turned his head and said to the rat bearded man: "Manager Cai, after you get the dimensions, you have your own work. Tomorrow, I will also see the relevant results."

"I obey my orders, please join the army and don't worry, our military uniform tailoring workshop will never let you down."

From an accountant to a manager of a workshop affiliated to the Ordnance Bureau, Mouse Xuzi has been substantially promoted, both in terms of monthly salary and position. At this moment, his daily life has completely changed.

With that look on his face, he responded loudly to Chen Kai's orders. If he hadn't been concerned about his higher status than those who were purely illiterate, he might not have slapped his chest in front of him.

Chen Kai did not just change the system here and sent trustworthy people to control it. After the work was decentralized, Chen Kai left the place, but the notices for hiring casual workers were still posted.

"The Military Uniform Tailoring Workshop under the Ordnance Bureau is recruiting female workers. They are required to be good at cutting, sewing, and will be paid on a piece-rate basis. One payment is made every day, and there will be no arrears. To sign up, please go to the Military Uniform Tailoring Workshop, left wing, and see Master Zhou Laifu for a test, and the best will be selected.

Admission."

The clerk shouted loudly in front of the list, and soon a large number of young girls and young wives gathered. On Nan'ao Island, Zheng Chenggong recruited a large number of soldiers under the recruitment tree. Whether in the city or on the entire island, the army

It is inevitable that the yin will be strong and the yang will be weak when you are born. For these women, either their fathers and brothers are in the army, or their husbands are in the army. Even if their family members have not joined the army, their neighbors, relatives, and close friends' family members are also in the army.

The Ordnance Bureau cannot be called a stranger to them.

"It's Chen Canjun who is recruiting workers. I heard from my brother that Chen Canjun is the most considerate and considerate person. He has never been in arrears with monthly payments from the Ordnance Bureau."

"That's right, that's right. I heard my man say that all the weapons in the army depend on Chen Canjun. Now Mr. Guoxing has given the military uniform tailoring workshop to Chen Canjun. It's really great. My man probably won't need it soon.

Let’s go into battle wearing our own clothes again.”

"..."

Chen Kai is an official, but what he does in the Ordnance Bureau is something ordinary people like to see. Here comes a good official like Hai Qingtian. This is the most common saying on Nan'ao Island. It is also true for upright officials.

It is even more possible to gain the trust of ordinary people, not to mention that Chen Kai's ability is obvious to all.

Some of them went to the military uniform tailoring workshop to watch the excitement, some went home to discuss it, and some even went to try it out. When they got home, they all said that the test was actually not very difficult, just cutting the fabric and sewing two pieces of cloth together.

Together, it's that simple. However, the crowd under the banner never stopped, so that the clerk was too busy to even drink water. However, even if his mouth was dry, he did not dare to do anything.

I am resentful, and I don’t dare to be passive and slow down my work. It’s not for anything else but because of the word Chen Kai. That’s enough.

Once things are properly arranged, the rest can be left to the subordinates. There is no need to do everything personally. At least Chen Kai doesn't intend to exhaust himself to death, which would be too much of a loss.

The next day, Chen Kai was on duty as usual. Mouse Beard came early in the morning with things to check on Chen Kai. The energetic leader looked at Wang Fugui and others with envy on their faces.

What Chen Kai wanted was actually the standard sizes of later generations' ready-made clothes. He did not intend to copy the sizes of later generations, so he simply let the tailors decide on the sizes themselves, and changed each soldier's tailor-made clothes to a fixed size, and the size differences were determined by themselves.

By finding someone to make modifications, the work efficiency of the tailors can be greatly improved.

Of course, it's not just that simple. If it were just like this, Chen Kai wouldn't have to go to great lengths to recruit female workers - since he wants to play, let's play big.

"Joining the army, these are the sizes of each section of each size. I specially asked the tailors to cut another unsewed piece."

The clothes in different sizes were broken down into sleeves, collars, fronts, backs, cuffs and many other components that make up a piece of clothing, and were placed in front of Chen Kai respectively.

After making a few gestures on the table, Chen Kai nodded and said to Mouse Xuzi: "Manager Cai, how much and how much each piece of fabric can carry? Let the tailors make the paper pattern first, and then let the female workers

Go and cut and sew. However, you must supervise and manage it. You can let them take away the ends of the cloth, but you must not let them get too greedy and increase the consumption of cloth."

"I understand that I will live up to my trust in joining the army."

Division of labor is still division of labor. To put it bluntly, Chen Kai's method is to imitate the methods of garment manufacturing in later generations. Anyway, what he wants this time is quantity, not anything else. As for which range the soldiers' sizes can be classified into, he also

Don't worry, when the first batch of finished products are delivered, you can ask Ye Yiyun to help organize some manpower to measure the dimensions, and you can save a lot of money in hiring professional tailors. And the current batch of tailors, in addition to making

Cardboard molds can also be customized specifically for those officers, so that the entire army can take comprehensive care of them.

Chen Kai gave this opportunity to Mouse Beard to Mouse Beard. Mouse Beard was very happy and was very grateful to Chen Kai. However, unlike the Ordnance Bureau, after all, there was mixed work between men and women, so some things had to be discussed in advance.

understandable.

"Your mission is very heavy, but I don't want to hear even one of those nasty things like cheating, indecency, and adultery."

"Please don't worry if you join the army. I will definitely keep a close eye on anyone who dares to hook up with you. I will beat them out with a stick. I will never let those dirty things ruin the reputation of our Arms Bureau."

"very good."
