Chapter 380 It takes half a day to fix the sewing machine!
"Grand Master, since the negotiation went well, tell Xueshi Huang that if they can sign the agreement, they can sign the agreement and don't get too hung up on the details."
"If Your Majesty signs an agreement, will you publish an article in the newspaper to announce it to the people?"
"You can make an announcement!"
"Have Daning and Jinzhou's front lines withdraw a certain number of troops?"
"We won't withdraw for the time being! We'll see what happens when winter comes." Who knows what the situation will be like in the Qing Dynasty after the situation has calmed down. It is too risky to withdraw troops now. Of course, if the situation gets better, in winter, from Daning and Liaonan, all troops will be withdrawn.
It is also entirely feasible to withdraw a division's troops and horses.
If two divisions can be withdrawn, the main troops of seven or eight divisions will be idle here in Beizhili. Xuanhua, Baoding, and Shanhaiguan each have one division stationed. It seems that there are still four or five divisions that can be used? So many troops are idle.
Staying in the capital does not seem to be a problem. It seems that after winter, it is time to consider where to put our efforts next besides the Liaodong battlefield.
However, I always feel that the current use of troops against the Central Plains and other places seems to be somewhat inadequate. It is a fact that there is no strong enemy in the belly, but the troops required to pacify the belly are indispensable. It is difficult to pacify a province without about 100,000 troops.
Done, the chaotic situation in the belly can easily affect the whole body. If the army is trapped, it will easily be impossible to escape.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Youjian didn't think of a good direction, so he had to give it up for the time being and wait until winter to think about it again.
After sending Zhou Yanru away, Zhu Youjian prepared to go somewhere. Next to the Second Ring Road that was being built, a new factory was opened in the palace. It was a factory that made official uniforms and military uniforms. This factory deserves attention because of this
It has been equipped with twenty sewing machines. Zhu Youjian wanted to see how much the efficiency of garment making has improved after using the sewing machines. There are some unreasonable aspects of the sewing machines that need to be improved.
"Go to the Tiangong Bureau and ask them to send a few craftsmen responsible for the development of sewing machines. At the same time, ask the R&D Department in the palace to send a few technicians to accompany me to the clothing factory. Let's hold an on-site meeting to follow up on the sewing machines.
Project!" I explained it to the people in the attendant's room, and asked some relevant craftsmen to go to the site to understand the situation. Sewing machines are relatively complex machines, and there are definitely various problems in the more than 20 units that have been made now, and they must go through
Only through on-site observation and investigation can we know where the problem lies, and making improvements based on the problem should be more effective.

People from the Tiangong Bureau and the R&D Department quickly rushed to the palace, and Zhu Youjian took them straight to the clothing factory!
When they arrived at the garment factory, Zhu Youjian asked the person in charge to take him and his team directly to the sewing and machine-made garment production line.
"How are these machines used now? Is there any obvious difference in efficiency between sewing clothes by hand?"
"Hooray, if you operate it properly, a sewing machine will indeed sew clothes much faster. But the problem is that not many people here know how to use a sewing machine. Everyone is learning to do it. Moreover, it is very inconvenient to operate and the machine is easy to break.
In particular, the belt connecting the casters and the runner is easy to loosen or break. It often takes half a day to repair a machine, which is not as fast as manual repair." The person in charge reported the actual use to Zhu Youjian. She
In fact, she really doesn't like sewing machines. They are inefficient, waste time, and are quite troublesome. Ever since the sewing machine arrived at their factory, she has been working on it every day, and it has not yet improved its efficiency.
"When any machine first comes out, it is true that there will be a lot of faults. This is inevitable. But we cannot resist the machine just because of the faults. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. With good tools, he can start working.
Only when things happen can you get twice the result with half the effort. Don’t be afraid of finding problems during use, but be afraid of not being able to improve them. Today I called the technical staff from the Tiangong Bureau and the R&D Department to let them listen to your front-line voices, so as to make better improvements.
Machinery used.”
After comforting the factory manager for a few words, Zhu Youjian asked the front-line workers to operate the sewing machines to see what problems there were in these machines and how they could be improved.
"As technicians, you should know more about the needs of front-line workers so that you can make truly useful machinery. You see, the distance between the eucalyptus and the pedals is a little inappropriate, and it will be quite difficult for the master workers to use it. The needle clip
The stuck needle is loose and it is difficult to replace it. This place must be connected with a small bearing, otherwise it will not rotate smoothly..." After a cursory look, Zhu Jian discovered many problems.
The research activity lasted for a whole afternoon before it ended. A simple sewing machine, to put it in detail, is really not simple. If Zhu Youjian hadn't forced it on, these current machines would not be qualified for use.
"There are many problems, but the future is bright. At least we found many solutions to the problems during our discussion this afternoon. Most of the problems can be improved with existing technology. After today, the Tiangong Bureau and R&D
The company split up to improve the sewing machines. The quality of the improvement will be rated by the workers and masters of the garment factory. If the next batch of machines does not improve well, the garment factory will reduce the order for that machine. There are 500 machines in total. I want to see
Which one is more caring to you?"
The purpose of establishing the R&D department is not only to solve the funding problem of the Tiangong Bureau, but also to allow the two companies to compete with each other. Without the introduction of a competition mechanism, it is easy to be perfunctory. For example, the sewing machine that the Tiangong Bureau built this time, although it has many functions,
There is a lot of creativity in it, but the handling of details is quite rough, especially in front-line production applications, and there is no care.
"We must carry out R&D with problems in mind, we must pool our wisdom for R&D, we must carry out R&D based on the actual application of front-line production, we must standardize R&D, and we must consider specific manufacturing and maintenance issues. Some of the parts of the 20 machines currently being built even
They can't be replaced with each other! This definitely won't work! What I want is machinery that can be produced on a large scale and can greatly improve the efficiency of garment making. From today on, the technicians from your two companies will be stationed in the factory to help the front-line production departments at any time.
To solve problems and grasp the direction of technological improvement. In one year’s time, all garment production lines in garment factories will be replaced by sewing machines. I don’t want the sewing machines to be full of problems like they are now.”
He criticized the craftsmen very severely. After criticizing the craftsmen, Zhu Youjian communicated with the management team of the garment factory. He proposed to them that without increasing manpower, the daily output of the garment factory next year should be higher than
The requirements are now expanded more than five times.
"If machinery is good, it must be used well, and a group of workers who are skilled in operating sewing machines must be trained. At the same time, the production model must be adjusted to better utilize the advantages of sewing machines. For example, the production line must be divided into labor, and people who use sewing machines must not be allowed to go to work.
Doing some cutting and repairing of corners can greatly improve production efficiency. In a word, you need to use your brain more and be good at summarizing, and don't use your brain to do things!"
