Chapter 21 Old Li, come to dinner(1/2)
"Your Majesty..."
Plop.
Cheng Chumo's face turned pale and he fell to the ground: "Please forgive me for my crimes. I am incompetent... I haven't done it yet. Please give me some time. I will definitely get the secret recipe for soap!"
Li Er frowned and asked coldly: "What the hell is going on?"
Cheng Chumo said innocently: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to do the job well, nor is my subordinates neglecting their duties. All of this is because of the assembly line production created by Chen Chu. The people I sent are only responsible for chopping wood, some are only responsible for making fires, and some are even responsible for guarding the door... I want them to secretly learn how to make soap, but I'm afraid it won't work until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse..."
After hearing this, Li Er pondered for a while: "There is such a thing? Humph, what a Chen Chu, I cooperated with him to do the soap business, and I contributed money and effort, but I didn't expect that he was wary of me everywhere. It was really outrageous. Let's go to Qingfeng Village, and I want to come to him for his theory in person."
The two cooperated.
Li Er accounts for 40%.
This book is Li Er's biggest concession.
Unexpectedly, Chen Chu was still wary of him.
This is unbearable.
I am the emperor!
Immediately, Li Er rushed to the foot of Qingfengzhai Mountain in anger.
The originally deserted Qingfengzhai Mountain has now become very lively.
The soap manufacturing plant covers an area of over thousands of acres.
In addition, it covers more than 5,000 acres of land, including canteens, dormitories, raw material stacking places, warehouses and other places.
The scale is larger than that of Qingfeng Village!
When Li Er came in, he saw hundreds of people busy in an orderly manner without any confusion, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He then said, "Chumo, take me to take a look!"
"yes!"
Cheng Chumo took Li Erxian to the raw material processing workshop.
Raw material processing is actually cutting down trees from the mountain, burning them together with grass to make them into wood ash.
Li Er felt that such a place must be dirty and messy.
Who knew that after coming in, I found that the ground was neat and clean.
All the wood is stacked in an orderly manner.
The workers were wearing uniform clothes and clean.
Li Er said in surprise: "Why is this place so clean? Are these people lazy and not working hard?"
Cheng Chumo hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, these are all Chen Chu's regulations. Chen Chu requires everyone to change clothes every day, and everyone must take a bath every three days, otherwise the wages will be deducted for one day. The workers were not happy at first, but the wages a day were only twenty cents. Of course, everyone couldn't bear it. After a long time, many people got used to it... Even me, now I change clothes every day. Your Majesty, look, my clothes just changed this morning, and it was very clean..."
Li Er looked at Cheng Chumo.
Sure enough, the clothes were washed clean.
The hair is no longer messy.
He looks like a kind of mental guy.
Look at the surrounding environment, it is clean and orderly.
It is even cleaner than many places in the palace.
Li Er couldn't help but say to himself: "This kid Chen Chu is a bit interesting..."
He had never heard of anyone asking craftsmen to change their clothes a day.
The two continued to walk forward.
Come to the door of the second workshop.
I saw a few men in their forties walking over with exhaustion on their faces. They all looked so tired that they could no longer do it, but they were talking and laughing, and a happy smile appeared on their faces.
Li Er stepped forward and asked curiously: "Several people can stop, dare you ask, are you tired of working in the soap manufacturing factory?"
A man said, "I'm so tired, I'm almost exhausted. The workshop we are in is the busiest place in the entire factory."
Li Er was even more surprised and asked, "But why are you still joking?"
The man laughed and said, "It's a little tired, but it's worth it. To be honest, we used to be bandits in the village. The master of the village found such a living for us. He promised us that each person had a salary of twenty cents a day, but when we saw this, we found that in the second workshop, we were as tired as we were, we actually had thirty cents a day. No matter how hard or tired we were, it was worth it."
The others nodded.
Then he left with jokes.
Li Er was a little stunned and asked, "Chu Mo, is this Chen Chu's rule?"
Cheng Chumo hurried forward and explained: "Your Majesty will be accurate as soon as you guess. Chen Chu stipulates that in the soap manufacturing plant, more work is more rewarding, less work is less rewarding, and no work is not worth it. In short, everyone has certain tasks. If these tasks are completed every day, they will have twenty-month wages. If they cannot complete them, they will be deducted. If they are completed too much, they will process money. For example, there is a young man in the third workshop who is amazingly strong. He can finish the work that others need three hours to complete, and he can finish it in one hour. He can get sixty-month wages every day... Moreover, Chen Chu also regularly selects and selects a group of skilled workers to promote these people to the squad leader. The wages of the squad leader are five cents more than others..."
Li Er was surprised again when he heard this.
He is the emperor!
I think I know everything about the world.
But when I arrived at the soap manufacturer, I was a little confused.
Chen Chu's approach was something he had never heard of before.
I'm afraid that the workshops in the world have not done this way.
Just then—
Dangdangdang.
Not far away, a rapid bell rang.
Li Er's face changed and he asked, "The bell sounds so fast, there must be an enemy situation. Go and see what's going on."
Cheng Chumo quickly grabbed Li Er's sleeve and whispered: "Your Majesty, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this is the bell for lunch."
Li Er was stunned, "I also need the bell to have lunch?"
Cheng Chumo explained: "Your Majesty, Chen Chu stipulates that noon is the work time every day, and the workers go to the cafeteria to have dinner... After dinner, there is half an hour to rest. When the bell rings again, the workers rush back to their positions..."
It turned out to be an obsessive thing!
Li Er felt a little embarrassed, and muttered, "This Chen Chu, I cooperated with him to do business, so that he could make money for me, but he used it to do these fancy ones! Let's go, I'm going to see him."
Cheng Chumo said, "Your Majesty, at this time, Chen Chu should also eat in the cafeteria. Let's go to the cafeteria."
As he said that, he took Li Er to the near dormitory area.
A short-speaking building covering a considerable area.
A plaque hung above the gate: Soap Manufacturing Factory Canteen.
I saw the workers talking and laughing and lined up to enter.
As soon as Li Er walked to the door, someone shouted: "Old Li, come and have a meal!"
He looked back and saw that Chen Chu was waving to him not far away.
He and Cheng Chumo walked over.
Chen Chu said: "Old Li, you haven't seen each other for a few days, you're getting fat again, tsk tsk..."
Li Er: “…”
Chen Chu pointed to the front and said, "Come on, line up."
Li Er's eyes suddenly widened.
What?
I have to queue up for dinner?
It's simply outrageous.
He was about to explode on the spot.
Cheng Chumo whispered: "Have your majesty calm down and don't expose your identity."
Li Er clenched his fists and nodded: "Okay, I'll queue up."
When he got the food, Li Er was stunned again.
He held a plate in his hand, which was made of wooden, and was very strange, with four squares.
One is used to hold rice, and the other three are used to hold rice.
this……
How to eat this?
Cheng Chumo quickly took a pair of chopsticks and said, "Your Majesty, the food in the cafeteria is fine."
Chen Chu came over and said, "Old Li, come with me!"
Chen Chu took Li Er and Cheng Chumo and the three of them walked outside the door.
To be continued...
