Chapter 29 Bullets Save

The three newly recruited translators and several foreign technicians were very attentive. With their cooperation, more than 300 female workers quickly learned to operate these machines. The seventeen female workers who were literate were also arranged by Yan Guang as employees, who were responsible for managing other female workers.

On the day the factory opened, Chengdu magistrate Yu Zongtong personally came to congratulate him. Sichuan acting governor Zhao Erfeng also wrote a plaque and sent someone to send it over. It happened to be the four big characters of Huasheng Company.

Yan Guang believed that as long as these two people were in one day, no one would cause trouble for him in Sichuan Province.

Of course, some small troubles are inevitable, but Yan Guang can handle those small troubles himself.

So, in the eleventh month when Yan Guang arrived in this era, Huasheng Company finally officially opened.

With the start of the factory, the first batch of cotton yarn and cotton cloth were quickly produced. Since the dealer was contacted in advance, it was very popular in sales.

However, this is also because compared with textiles coming from other provinces, Huasheng's products reduce transportation costs and are therefore lower in price. Moreover, in this era when locating region very much, although Yan Guang's origin is not very clear, Huasheng's products are both Sichuan products and domestic products. Huasheng Company is undoubtedly a Sichuan company. Although the merchants below are merchants, they are also Sichuan merchants and will naturally support Sichuan companies.

So in the first month of opening, Yan Guang found that it might be unlikely to take back the money from buying machines in the short term, but if he just wants to make a profit while maintaining balance between income and expenditure, there is absolutely no problem.

Moreover, just like Yan Guang had expected at the earliest, even if only a small number of consumers in Sichuan who became Huasheng products were a very impressive force. With Huasheng's current production level, Huasheng Company's current production level could not meet these consumers at all, and it was not even enough to meet the 400,000 population in Chengdu.

Therefore, when the merchants below learned that Yan Guang's warehouse had a bunch of machines that were not used, they had already come out to urge him to expand his production capacity.

"Huh, those guys finally left..." After sending away another group of dealers urging expansion, Yan Guang wiped the sweat from his forehead. "What a group of difficult guys. He clearly told them that the expansion had started, but he would urge us to move faster."

"Do businessmen always seek profit..." Wang Er, who was standing beside him, smiled.

Yan Guang glanced at him. "You have understood a lot."

"After watching it for so long, I always learn a lot."

"By the way, how are those guys doing now?" The guys Yan Guang mentioned were the original ten security guards and the ten new security guards who later joined.

These twenty people are all strong young men, and everyone can read. However, they have no experience as a security guard in the past, nor are they from the ranks, so it is okay to pull out to fight in groups, and it is a bit unqualified to be a security guard. Therefore, Yan Guang asked Wang Er, the former water bandit and the current security captain, to train them well, so that they know that five oceans are not that easy to get.

"They?" Although Wang Er was about the same age as those people, he still laughed. "Those guys are lying on the bed in the dormitory and can't get up..."

"Is that true?" Yan Guang also smiled.

The group of security guards Yan Guang was planning to be the team for future uprisings, so he naturally hoped that they would be more capable. Unfortunately, Yan Guang did not have a suitable candidate at hand now, so he could only use Wang Er, the former water bandit, to make do with him.

"But this is not enough..." Yan Guang touched his chin and thought to himself. "There are still three years left before the Wuchang Uprising, so it doesn't matter if Wang Er practices first. Military talents should wait until London's stocks can be turned into silver dollars next year..."

After thinking about it, Yan Guang asked Wang Erdao. "The factory is expanding production now, and the original more than 300 workers is definitely not enough, so some workers must be recruited outside. Well, at least more than 300 people must be recruited."

"If this happens, I'm afraid that all the machines will not be able to be activated, right?"

"Of course not, but you always have to eat step by step?" Yan Guang said with a smile. "And there are more people in the factory, and your responsibilities are much greater than before. The twenty people now are definitely not enough. I decided to expand the security team."

"How much is it expanded?" Wang Er asked hurriedly.

"It's enough to expand thirty people and expand the entire security team to fifty people." Yan Guang rubbed his neck. "When the factory puts all the machines into use, there will be at least two thousand workers in the entire factory. At that time, you may have to expand."

"But the boss..." Wang Er scratched his head. "Fifty people are enough, right?"

In Wang Er's opinion, the security guard's work is just to prevent people in the factory from taking things out, or people outside the factory sneaking into the factory to steal things, so even fifty security guards in the factory with one or two thousand people are enough...

"Of course not enough!" Yan Guang waved his hand. "In the future, it will be expanded to at least one hundred people. You wouldn't think I'll just build a textile factory, right? There will be a gray factory and a glass factory in the future!" This is also the reason why Yan Guang built a security force.

Although Wang Er is now Yan Guang's confidant, Yan Guang does not intend to tell him his true purpose now, as are the security forces built with a lot of money.

Of course, I still have to say it at the end, but at that time it was already the time when the movement broke out and the Kawara vibrated.

At that time, Yan Guang believed that this team he built himself would definitely support him.

Speaking of this, Yan Guang remembered another thing. "By the way, you still need guns, right?"

I think that there is always a gun when I revolt. If there is no gun, how can I revolt? Fortunately, the problem of guns in this era is not difficult to solve.

"Gun?" After a moment of silence, Wang Er nodded. "A batch of guns is indeed needed, well, ten Hanyangs can be made." As he said that, Wang Er looked at Yan Guang carefully.

Unlike later generations of the War of Resistance, Hanyang made a standard good gun during this period, and the better one was the higher-generation Mauser G98 rifle. However, at this time, the Mauser 98 rifle had not been sold to China, and it was difficult to buy even if you had money, so the only option was Hanyang made...

Although Wang Er only needs ten Hanyang builds for his men to use, Yan Guang does not want his uprising troops to become a unit that lacks guns. Even if it is only in the early stages, Yan Guang did not intend to tell Wang Er, so he just patted his shoulder...

"Remember to save some use of bullets..."
