The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 504: United Machinery Group Smelter

Claude Lee is the director of the metal smelter of the United Machinery Group. He also feels a little weird that he can become the director of a 500-man factory. After all, he was only one of the factories facing unemployment Ordinary old accountant.

Not long ago, the metal smelter he belonged to was still privately owned by Congressman Lloyd. This metal smelter has been built for thirty years and has also been glorious. It is the largest metal smelter in the eastern region of the entire English kingdom. The factory has thousands of employees. Nearly half of the steel used in the fleet of the English Kingdom's dominant ocean comes from this factory. Lloyd's ability to be re-elected in the seat of Congress also has something to do with this factory.

However, as the science institutes of various countries around the world have developed new forging furnaces and new metal formulas, the old smelting tools have been unable to keep up with the times and have been phased out. The old smelters using these smelting tools are either Close the door, either purchase a new forging furnace to complete the mechanical upgrade.

  For the employees of the smelter, no matter which kind of choice is a good choice, because those two choices mean that some employees will be dismissed, the difference is that only one dismissed most of them, and one is completely dismissed.

   However, for the middle and high level of the factory, it is natural to hope that the factory will complete the upgrade of the new equipment, because in that case, even if the factory wants to dismiss people, they will not be dismissed.

But in the end, things are going in the worst direction. Lloyd has established his relationship with Congress and the government through these years, and the smelter has not helped him much, and Because of the aging of the equipment, it became a burden, so he decided to close the factory without much consideration, then dismantled the factory, and transformed the factory land into a shared apartment, which was specially rented to those who fled from Weilun mainland. This is a refugee from France.

  After making a decision, Lloyd began to dismiss employees in the factory, and Claude Lee's name was on the list of the first batch of employees who were dismissed, and was also the first to be dismissed.

The reason why Claude Lee will be the first to be dismissed is mainly because he is too honest and honest, and is not in line with any middle or high-level in the factory. If he does not have excellent accounting skills, say He may have been swept out of the house.

  Now that the factory is going to be closed, there is no need for accounting. After all, there is such an honest and honest accountant in charge of the accounts. How can the middle and senior managers of the factory get enough oil and water from the employee severance payment.

However, what is unexpected is that before the first batch of dismissed employees complete the resignation procedures, there will be a new notice. Lloyd has sold the entire factory and the land. The new owner of this factory does not The factory will be closed, but the equipment will be upgraded, and the scale will be expanded, which means that no employees will be dismissed, and it is more likely to recruit workers.

This news undoubtedly pleased all the people in the factory. After all, no one wants to lose their jobs. Especially when the large number of refugees in the influx of French refugees are willing to exchange their jobs with lower wages. The vast majority of these refugees They are all Mirias, and all of them have very professional qualities. This makes businesses and factories in the city more willing to hire these people. Because of work problems, there are many conflicts between the Inge locals and the French refugees.

   It is precisely because of the disaster of unemployment that everyone in the factory is very grateful for the new owner of the factory, and is ready to show their enthusiasm and respect when the other party comes to inspect the factory.

However, it is disappointing that the new owner of the factory did not come the next day, but sent his butler to announce a series of decisions about the internal reorganization of the factory, and the most surprising decision was to smelt the whole The factory was merged into a group company, which was the appointment of former accountant Claude Lee as the factory manager.

Everyone in the smelter was curious about why Claude Lee could gain the trust of the new owner of the factory, and he became the director of the real power, but Claude Li himself was very clear why he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility because he Meet the housekeeper of the new owner of the factory.

  In fact, the moment when he was appointed as the factory director, Claude Lee was also very surprised, and his accident was not only because of the change of his own position, but also because of the change of the housekeeper's identity.

He remembers the last time he saw this person, this person was picking up tatters and begging on the street, which was no different from the refugee beggars in the city, even worse. Later, he didn’t see this person for a long time. Thought this person was dead.

So he never imagined that the old man who had fallen down at that time would appear to him in a completely different way now. If it were not for the words of gratitude the old man said after seeing him, he might not be sure of his guess. .

   Actually, in his heart, he did not think that what he did deserved such a return in the present. At first, because the old man begged and picked up the ruined area just near his home, he could see the old man every time he commuted to get off work.

Out of compassion, every time he commuted to work, he took away the food left in the canteen of the factory, which was recognized as uneaten, and gave it to this person, but he did not expect that the food left in the end was exchanged for now. Such a position made him dazed the whole day he was appointed, and felt he was living in a dream.

But although he was appointed as the new factory director, and the old man also showed extraordinary support, Claude Lee still felt a little uneasy because he knew how powerful he was and let him take care of the accounts. There is no big problem, but it is a bit overwhelming to let him manage the whole factory.

   To this end, he specifically found the old housekeeper Sanjas, clarified his situation, and expressed the hope that the old housekeeper can re-elect a competent plant manager.

However, the old housekeeper did not answer his request, but took him to the real owner of the factory, and actively expressed to the factory owner that he hoped to be a teacher while teaching him how to manage a factory while taking care of the apartment. I saw the appearance of the owner of the factory for the first time.

  Claude Lee originally understood that the rich man's request, the old housekeeper's request was simply impossible to agree, but what happened a little unexpectedly was that the owner of the factory actually agreed.

After   , according to the arrangement of the old housekeeper, he took two hours a day to receive the training of the old housekeeper, and he also asked the old housekeeper for help to get some advice from the old housekeeper.

Under the guidance of the old housekeeper, Claude Lee dismissed the worms in the factory, reformulated a more effective and fair reward mechanism, and hired some new workers from refugees and locals, He secretly promoted each other's competition and strengthened the plant's work efficiency. With the implementation of a series of measures, he soon changed from a middle-aged accountant to a smelter's plant manager.

During this period of time, various rumors circulated among the workers in the factory. Among them, the most rumors were not only about how Claude Lee became the factory director, but also more speculation about the new owner of the factory. What kind of person is it.

After a period of exploration, the workers in the smelter had a certain understanding of the new owner’s financial resources, because they knew that the smelter they were in was not the first one to be acquired. The small and large factories were acquired by this person, and they merged into a new company called United Machinery Group.

In terms of size and number of workers alone, the boss of the United Machinery Group has become the largest factory owner in the entire Port of Saite, and more importantly, these factories that were about to close down after reorganization and equipment upgrades There has been a resurgence, especially some of the new products that have been designated and produced recently have become popular products on the market. As a result, orders from various factories have increased and signs of prosperity have gradually appeared. No matter how dull people are, it can be seen that with this continued benign development, United Machinery Group will inevitably become the largest machinery and metal manufacturer in Port Sait and even the entire Kingdom of England.

In a large number of rumors about the owner of the factory, everyone is most concerned about the appearance and age of the owner, because the boss of the United Machinery Group has never appeared in any of the subordinate factories, and the management of the factory is led by the old butler Some professional managers are responsible for supervision and operation, and factory management is all entrusted to the newly appointed factory director.

It is for this reason that the vast majority of people in the factory know nothing about the new owner of the factory, but they do not prevent them from guessing this person, and almost the vast majority of people guess that the owner of the factory should be an old man with territory Aristocrats, because only such aristocrats can get a lot of money to buy some factories that are about to go bankrupt, without worrying about investment failure.

However, Claude Lee, who had been to the apartment and had seen the new owner of the factory, knew that the new owner of the factory was not an old nobleman at all, but a young man. As for whether the nobleman was not clear, he was seeing that person. At that time, I felt that the temperament of that person was very complicated, not only as a scholar but also as a warrior, and some of them were like the seafarers who often ventured out on the pier. They were not like nobles or merchants.

Although Claude Lee had seen the new owner of the factory, he did not show it. He did not know why his young boss wanted to hide his identity, but he knew exactly what he should do, at least when the boss took the initiative to reveal his identity. Before, he could never reveal a word to the outside.

Originally Claude Lee felt that the secret about the boss’s appearance needed to be hidden for a long time before it was possible to tell it, but what he didn’t talk about was that the opportunity came soon, and he didn’t need him to speak, the people in the factory It is already known that their boss is a young man.

  On this day, Claude Lee tidied up the office as usual, and then began to inspect the workshop to check the raw materials.

It was just that he had just walked out of the office, and a factory gatekeeper hurried over and told him that the old housekeeper was coming, and there was a young man who came with the old housekeeper, and from the attitude of the old housekeeper, the young man seemed to be his The owner is the owner of the factory.

  Claude immediately thought of his mysterious boss when he heard that there was a young man beside the old housekeeper, so he let the guards take him in the first place.

   The factory guard did not take Claude to the parking lot beside the factory gate, but took Claude directly to the first melting furnace workshop.

The first smelting furnace is a new smelting furnace after the reorganization and upgrading of the factory. The main body of the furnace is the latest smelting furnace of the Kingdom of Marais. However, the internal structure of this furnace is not the original furnace. I came here with a drawing specially to supervise the transformation of the furnace and transform the inside of the furnace into another look.

At that time, the workers responsible for assembly did not know why this kind of modification was made, and they all thought that this kind of modification would damage the furnace. However, under the strict instructions of the old housekeeper, they had to follow the drawings to make separate modifications, so when the furnace modification was completed, it started The first time they tried to light the fire, they were all in a mood of schadenfreude, thinking that the stove must not be on fire, even if it was on, the temperature of the stove would not be able to meet the requirements.

What everyone can't think of is that the refurbished furnace ignited very smoothly, and the temperature inside the furnace also exceeded the maximum temperature of the original design of this furnace in a short time, until it was nearly higher The temperature stabilizes only after doubling the temperature.

The time it takes to reach this temperature is several times faster than any other type of furnace reduced on the market. It does not even require a furnace heating process, and the temperature stability is also much higher~www.wuxiahere. com~ The most terrible thing is that the fuel consumption is only half of the original melting furnace.

Claude knew exactly what kind of sensation would be caused by the effect of this stove, so the first thing he thought of at the time was to hide the news, because this sensational effect would not bring any benefit to the factory, but would make the kingdom high-level Coveting this stove, using some illegal means to **** this stove.

However, it is clear that the old butler sees this kind of problem farther than him, and thinks about it earlier. Before transforming the furnace, he signed a confidentiality agreement with all the technicians and workers involved in the transformation. If the person reveals it, then everyone will be punished by the agreement, and the cost of the punishment varies, but it just happens to exceed the psychological bottom line of the participants.

  At the same time, the old housekeeper also signed a long-term contract with the royal family for a long-term low-cost supply of special steel immediately after the furnace effect was tested. The factory and the royal family were tied together to completely solve this worries.

  In those factories under the United Machinery Group, the smelter can turn losses into profit in a short period of time and become the largest profitable factory of the group, largely relying on this unmatched transformation of the melting furnace.

So when he learned that the old housekeeper and the young man entered the factory and went directly to the first smelting furnace workshop, Claude wondered whether it was necessary to remodel the smelting furnace. If so, then the effect of the new smelting furnace would be able to To what extent? ...
