Chapter 3 Trivial Affairs

More than half a month has passed since the New Year, and the hustle and bustle of Bangta City has gradually recovered from the hustle and bustle during the New Year to its usual scene.

The factory of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the western suburbs also started to operate again as early as a week ago, returning to a lively and tense working state.

Heinze pushed open the door of the office and saw Xu Yizheng standing in front of a wall of the office, thinking about something in front of a map of Lampari Kingdom hanging on the wall.

This map was asked by Xu Yi from the Lord of the City some time ago. He seems to like this map very much, and he looks at it like this for a while every day.

Heinze found that today the map has changed a little bit.

As soon as this map was hung up, Xu Yi painted a fiery red on the west side of Bangta City.

When Heinze asked why he wanted to do this, Xu Yi told him that it meant that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce was here, so it was painted in red, which meant that the flames of the magic industry were lit here.

And now Heinze discovered that Xu Yi also painted a fiery red patch on the south of Karma City not far to the upper right of Bangta City on the map, and the range was much larger than the group outside Bangta City.

Heinze glanced at the extra fiery red, and asked Xu Yi with a smile, "What? Has it been agreed?"

Xu Yi nodded: "Well, I just talked with the representative of Earl Anaris and negotiated the lease of land in Karma. The next step is to send someone from our Chamber of Commerce to conduct an on-the-spot investigation and finally confirm it. I think it should go well with the attention of Earl Narris to this matter. By the way, the representative of Earl Anaris just now invited me to go to Kalmar City for an on-the-spot investigation as soon as possible, and I told him that time would be arranged within a week. Although Karma City is very close to Bangta, and it doesn’t take much time to come and go, but it always takes a lot of time to visit, so you and Camby have to prepare.”

Seeing Heince nodding in response, Xu Yi sighed again, pointed to the extra flaming red on the map and said, "But now there is a very important issue before us. Investing in Kalmar City to build a factory It's not difficult. As long as you invest enough money, under the care of Count Annalis, the planned factory can be easily established. But the problem is that I find that we can't send the corresponding people to manage it. Reasonably It is said that the Chamber of Commerce has opened a new market. As the chairman, I should take the lead, but now there are a large number of orders for farmland magic machinery ordered by the Agriculture Department. If I find someone else, I'm not at ease, it's really difficult."

A hesitant look flashed across Heinze's face, he paused, and suddenly said, "Let me go."

Xu Yi looked at him in amazement: "Are you going?"

"Well." Heinze nodded vigorously. "Xu Yi, I've thought about it, there are more and more things that the Chamber of Commerce needs to deal with now. You can't always let you, the president, handle it yourself. Sooner or later, you will be overwhelmed. As the vice president, no matter what I'll share some of it for you. So I'll be responsible for the investment and construction of a factory in Kalmar City this time. What do you think?"

Xu Yi pondered Heinze for a while, then smiled and said, "You have managed the household magic machinery production workshop so well. You have already shared a lot. But since you are willing to take on more work, of course I strongly welcome you. But Heinze, didn't you always tell me that you would like to spend the rest of your life in Bangta City, and don't want to go anywhere else? Why suddenly..."

"I've been thinking about what you said on New Year's Eve these days. Every time I think of what you said, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has set up factories in all parts of this continent, and we can see our Xinfei brand logo everywhere. I feel very excited. I think a lot. I just want to do something for this idea. Xu Yi, I know I'm not a visionary like you, so I can't help you with the decision-making of the Chamber of Commerce. What I can do and are good at are trivial things. This time I invested in Kalmar City and built a factory with the support of Count Anaris. I don't think there will be any problems. The main thing is that someone needs to do these trivial things over there. I think I'm quite suitable, Xu Yi, what do you think?"

"I also think you are quite suitable." Xu Yi couldn't help laughing. "But Heinze, you are mistaken a little bit. These tasks are trivial, but they are equally important. If these practical trivial matters are not handled properly. Then the development of our chamber of commerce is only based on empty talk. You can I'm very happy to stand up and help me share these things. But Heinze, when you're gone, who do you leave the workshop to?"

"Don't worry about that. Do you remember the worker named Ankato I mentioned to you last time?"

"Ankato?" Xu Yi thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Is it the worker who took the initiative to deal with the conflict between the workers last time?"

"Yes, it's him." Heinze nodded, with an expression of admiration on his face: "I have observed this guy for a while and found that he is a solid man, his head is flexible enough, and he has some prestige in the hearts of the workers, so More than a month ago, I promoted him to be the team leader to assist me with workshop management. Now after this period of investigation, I think he is very good. If I leave, you can promote him to the deputy workshop supervisor, who is mainly responsible for For the production work of the entire workshop, I think he should be able to do it."

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "It seems that you are very satisfied with this Ankato. Well, since you personally recommended it, then choose him. After you go back, let him know and let him prepare in advance."

"Don't worry. I know what to do."

Now that Heinze has volunteered to recommend himself, Xu Yi simply waved his hand and handed over all the investment and construction of Kalmar City to Heinze.

In fact, compared to Xu Yi, Heinze was much older, and he was more skilled than Xu Yi in terms of human relationships. If he were to handle such specific affairs, the effect might be better than Xu Yi's.

However, through this incident, Xu Yi discovered an old problem of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, that is, the shortage of talents.

Although Heinze unearthed such leadership talents as Ankato from the workers this time, according to Xu Yi's expectation, the new aircraft chamber of commerce will develop rapidly in the future, and it will not be able to keep up with the demand just by discovering talents from within. .

Therefore, Xu Yi added the item of recruiting management talents to the recruitment of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce due to the expansion of production.

Of course, talent does not appear so easily, and Xu Yi can only wait slowly.

However, the production work of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not allow any waiting at all.

After the start of the new year, the completed new workshop was officially put into use. After the dwarves of the magic machine tool workshop moved into the new workshop that was more than ten times larger and brighter, their enthusiasm for work seemed to be even higher.

In just one week, the Magic Machine Tool Workshop completed the production of 500 small Magic Harvesters.

According to this progress, I am afraid that it will take less than two months to complete the first order of 3,000 farmland magic machines from the Agriculture Department.

Of course, the reason for such a terrifying speed is that the dwarves such as Camby have completed the research and development of the magic forging machine a few years ago.

Now, a whole machine tool production line for the production of small magic harvesters has been arranged in the new workshop. The production of this small magic harvester does not have to be handcrafted by dwarves as before, and the efficiency is naturally greatly improved.

I saw that the iron plates were cut, punched, and polished into suitable shapes under the action of the magic forging machine, and then flexibly assembled by the dwarves into small magic harvesters. I just arrived at Bangta City in the morning, and as soon as I arrived, Sevigny, who came to the factory of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, was very satisfied, and couldn't help nodding his head in admiration to Xu Yi: "President Xu, to be honest, I didn't have enough confidence in you before. Because I came to Bangta City. Later, I saw with my own eyes that your chamber of commerce is not very efficient in producing farmland magic machines, so I doubt whether your chamber of commerce can fulfill the order. You said earlier that as long as you develop a magic forging machine, the efficiency will be greatly improved. I am still very skeptical, because Before seeing these magic forging machines, I can't imagine what kind of tools can make workers ten times or even dozens of times more productive at once."

"Then what if you see it now?" Xu Yi said with a smile.

"I'm... shocked. Yes, I'm shocked." Sevigny said with emotion. "I didn't expect these magic forging machines to be so powerful. You see, if you want to forge an iron plate into a suitable shape, it may take a blacksmith an entire afternoon. However, using these magic forging machines The machine tool, in the blink of an eye. It really opened my eyes.”

Xu Yi laughed and came to the stack of iron plates that had been punched and piled up. He scratched his finger on the edge and said to Sevigny: "Miss Sevigny, efficiency is only one thing, the other more important point is It's the standard. You see, almost every piece of these iron plates is exactly the same shape, with almost no difference. And if the blacksmiths were to make it by hand, it would never be as neat as this. And the difference is whether it can be The biggest difference is to scale and streamline production.”

Sevigny frowned slightly, looked at Xu Yi, and said somewhat puzzledly: "President Xu, these things you said... Actually, I don't quite understand a lot of them. Can you explain it to me specifically?"

"Of course there's no problem with that. But Miss Sevigny, you need to pay tuition to learn this knowledge. What are you going to use to pay for the tuition?" Xu Yi joked.

"Tuition?" Sevigny showed a sly smile. "President Xu, a piece of good news about renting the land, is it enough to pay tuition fees?"
