Struggle in the Steam Age

The reason why this factory manager is so proud is very simple. After this period of time, Lawrence and the others sent to carry out a comprehensive renovation of the factory, the profit rate of the entire factory has risen greatly under the modern management.

At the same time, because of the introduction of modern management, the treatment of those workers is naturally improved. In this way, for the workers, this dairy factory named Neuschauer is naturally quite attractive to them.

So when they knew it was recruiting people, so many people came to sign up, hoping to become workers here.

"In fact, when we recruit people, the wages we open are not higher than those in the neighboring factories. After all, our factories have to be kept in the factory area, so sometimes we can only compromise."

The director shook his head and said. "But we can provide better welfare for workers."

Speaking of this, the factory director pointed to an open space under construction outside the factory fence. "For example, over there we are building some 4- to 5-story apartments according to the drawings you drew, which is one of the best benefits for those workers."

"Although each of these apartments is only 30 to 40 square meters, whether it is cooking or going to the toilet, it is done in the public space on this floor, but this should be regarded as the best residence within a limited budget."

"I have to say that you do have incomparable talent in this area. We later found several architects for detailed design, but I didn't expect that they could not modify how much you designed based on the standard."

The director said, looking at Lawrence with admiration. Lawrence could see that this admiration was out of admiration for the building construction drawings he provided before, not because of his identity.

The drawings that Lawrence provided were actually from the Tongzilou where he lived for a year or two when he was a child. In those days, these residential buildings solved the problem of housing a large number of people with limited budget.

Therefore, after learning that companies here need some low-cost, high-density housing, Lawrence quickly remembered those buildings and drew the outline drawings of the tube building based on memory, and asked the managers who were sent to the industrial zone to bring the drawings Construction here.

Although the drawings that Lawrence drew from his memory only included the parts he saw, the managers only found a few professionals after getting this part of the drawings and easily came up with the detailed drawings of the overall construction. Then, according to the detailed drawings, the new building was built.

"If the methods I thought of can help everyone, that would be great." Lawrence said while looking at the workers in the distance. When the warlords bought the land, they directly fooled the local housing intermediaries, so the factories they bought were all located in the fringe areas of the city, and all kinds of transportation and logistics were inconvenient.

But this is good news for Lawrence and the others. At least they can buy a large piece of land with a small amount of money when they want to expand the factory.

"Yes, this not only shows your kindness. It also reduces the operating cost of the entire factory by a big margin." The young factory manager who looked only in his thirties said with emotion.

"According to your order, we bought a large piece of land around here. In addition to the current and future factory expansion, some of the land will be used to build the living quarters of the workers."

"According to our calculation, if all the workers live in this living area. Then we can increase the labor efficiency of the workers and produce more high-quality products without increasing the overall labor cost. At the same time, it can also improve in disguise. The income of workers gives them a stronger spending power."

"Yes, that's why I want to build the workers' residential area called the Workers' New Village." Lawrence said when he looked at the busy workers and machinery.

"With the concentration of personnel, we can reduce a lot of unnecessary consumption through scale and improve various efficiency at the same time. This situation is very important for both the operators of our factories and the workers. Nice thing."

After passing through a large area of ​​construction site, Lawrence and the others simply passed through a disinfection room, put on white coats and hats, and then entered the factory.

As the first scholar in the world to put forward the disinfection theory, Lawrence naturally set an example in this regard and introduced a complete disinfection system in the factory.

After these disinfection systems were put into operation for about ten days, the factory management, who had previously thought that doing so was a waste of money, immediately praised Lawrence's decision.

Because there is no change in other processes, the cheese produced by strictly following the sterilization process does not often deteriorate during the production process as before, which is equivalent to reducing production costs and increasing the quality of dairy products. profit.

After looking at the complete production process in the factory and summoning some phantoms of fire poisonous bees and soil ants for a thorough inspection, Lawrence, who felt that the situation was really good, left the production factory. Then I tasted some samples of the products in the warehouse behind the factory.

"The taste is pretty good." After the tasting, Lawrence gave a good evaluation.

However, Syfiel raised a question after eating the small piece of cheese. "Why is this cheese different in taste from the cheeses I have eaten before? It feels as if it is not more fragrant than the cheeses I have eaten before."

"We think it may be caused by high temperature sterilization." The director said after looking at Lawrence. "For safety reasons, we use a high-pressure container with an internal temperature of 140 degrees to sterilize the milk before it is used to make cheese. According to the Earl’s theory, this process is likely to eliminate certain microorganisms in the milk that affect the flavor of cheese--"

"There is no way, after all, if these cheeses are produced according to the original method. Not only will the shelf life of the cheese be short, but there may also be a large number of harmful microorganisms in it, which will poison the people who eat the cheese."

Lawrence also shrugged and said. "Of course, the taste of cheese made in this way is a bit thin, not as rich as traditional cheese."

"Yes, these cheeses we produce now have a clear difference in flavor compared with traditional cheeses." The factory manager said helplessly, but soon he seemed to be energetic again.

"But also because of disinfection~www.ltnovel.com~ our cheese has a longer shelf life, lower cost and a safer reputation. So during this time, our products can be said to be in short supply. Every day, as long as the goods are produced, Someone bought it right away."

The taste of industrially produced food is always worse than in the past in most cases, but the advantage is that it can reduce the price of food. In this way, those who could not afford to consume these foods in the past will also become new consumers. It is equivalent to expanding the market and increasing profits.

"This is the differentiated competition you told me before." Saifei asked after listening to what the director said, turning his head to look at Lawrence.

"Yes, that's it." Lawrence smiled and nodded. "I think these new types of cheeses shouldn't be eaten by the wealthy, but their appearance can enable ordinary people in the past to buy more cheese. ."

"It's really good news." After learning that the new cheese produced has broad development prospects, Syfiel showed a bright smile on his face. As the future Mrs. August, she will naturally be happy for the bright future of this family industry.

"By the way, are those factories over there also producing cheese?" After taking a look at the surrounding factories, Syfiel asked curiously, pointing to several factories in the distance.
