Chapter 85 An Extra Hundred Dollars
Although the workmanship is still not very sophisticated, it has been significantly improved compared to the samples that I hand-polished at home.
Both the accuracy of material cutting and the completeness of the overall process are much higher.
This progress made her feel quite satisfied and gave her more confidence to continue expanding the production scale.
It should be fine for tomorrow's inspection.
She put the finished product back to its original place, a relieved smile on her face.
This level of performance should be enough to handle the upcoming safety inspections and technical acceptances.
She believes that with her current status, she will be able to pass the review smoothly.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of something else that could make money, which was a 90-degree right-angle brush.
Just before she was about to leave the workshop, an idea suddenly came to her mind.
The design of a new cleaning tool quickly appeared in her mind - a brush for cleaning dead corners.
This 90-degree right-angle brush can be widely used in difficult-to-clean locations such as kitchens and toilets. It is extremely practical and has great market demand. Once launched on the market, it will inevitably have considerable commercial value.
Now that the conditions are ripe, she plans to start production and apply for a patent.
Compared with the resource-scarce situation at the beginning of the business, the factory now has basically the basic conditions for independent research and development of products, both manpower and equipment are in place.
She was determined to launch the project in the near future, and immediately submitted relevant patent information after designing the prototype, striving to obtain legal protection as soon as possible.
Chen Yan asked Fan Mu: "Mr. Fan, will Boss Fan return to the factory at noon?"
Then, she walked a few steps towards the technical department, paused at the office door, and softly asked Engineer Fan who was busy recording data.
Fan Mu replied expressionlessly, "No. What do you want from him?"
Fan Mu raised his head from his notebook, his eyes calm but without any enthusiasm, his tone flat and direct, as if his curiosity about her purpose was just a polite question rather than a real concern for her needs.
Shen Yan laughed dryly twice, and suddenly understood why Fan Youfa was the boss and Fan Mu was only a technician.
She couldn't help but laugh dryly when she heard this, and suddenly she understood something.
No wonder the two brothers, both with the surname Fan and both founded a factory, ended up with one taking charge of the company while the other could only focus on a technical position.
From a personality perspective, Fan Youfa is more like a businessman, flexible and sociable; while the Fan Mu in front of him is obviously not cut out for this kind of work.
It seems that Fan Mu is really not suitable for the kind of job that requires dealing with many people.
His responses were cold and mechanical, and he failed to give people the impression that he was actively communicating or willing to listen to others' opinions. He was obviously not suitable for a management position that required frequent external communication.
Not to mention jobs that require flexibility.
What's more, management work is often accompanied by emergencies and situations that require quick adjustments to plans. Given his rigid way of dealing with things, he probably won't be able to come up with even the most basic countermeasures in a timely manner when faced with complex problems.
She smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll talk to Boss Fan tomorrow and ask him to pass it on to you."
She didn't say much, but put on a relaxed expression and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll tell Boss Fan about this matter after I see him tomorrow."
Fan Mu lowered his head and continued to look at the thing in his hand, "Yeah."
After hearing this, the other party did not react much. He just nodded casually and then turned his attention back to the information in his hand, as if this conversation had never happened.
After getting his response, Shen Yan said that she had finished looking at the road and was ready to leave.
After confirming Fan Mu's attitude, she knew that she had almost seen everything she needed to see today and there was no need to stay here any longer, so she stood up and sorted out the notebook she carried with her, preparing to end this factory inspection.
Fan Mu said expressionlessly, "Goodbye."
Just as she was about to step out of the door, the technician who had always had a stern face whispered two words.
Shen Yan also said goodbye and left the factory.
She smiled and waved goodbye to him. Although he showed no emotion at all, she tried her best to remain polite and friendly, and quickly pushed the door open and walked out again into the sunny factory path.
Everyone has a job that suits him or her. Perhaps for Fan Mu, concentrating on technology is the most suitable path for him.
Looking at his departing back, Shen Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Perhaps some people are born technicians and are not suitable to be managers.
This is the case with Fan Mu. He is more suited to quietly and attentively delving into technical problems in his own field rather than engaging in complex social activities.
After returning to the manor in the afternoon, Shen Yan went to the warehouse to help clean up.
After leaving the factory, it was almost evening and the sunlight was gradually getting warmer.
She returned to where she lived, took a short rest, and then went into the warehouse to join the cleaning work.
Although she now has regular hired workers, she still insists on personally participating in affairs from time to time, both to grasp the actual progress and to enhance the familiarity between them.
Today is payday!
As the sun sets, a hint of autumn fills the air, and the entire manor is filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
The workers came one after another to collect their monthly wages, with a smile on everyone's face. In this warm atmosphere, Chen Yan also showed a satisfied smile, welcoming the arrival of this day.
Before leaving get off work, the setting sun shines through the glass windows of the company's office into the corridor and the ground. The light is warm but with a hint of fatigue.
She packed up the documents and keys on the table, then followed Tong Da to the Finance Department on the other side of the office building to collect her pay slip.
Although she had earned much more money from street stalls during this period, she was in urgent need of paying the rent. Even if she could earn a hundred yuan more this time, she would feel extremely relieved and happy.
After all, in this era where the pace of life is slow but careful budgeting is required, money is undoubtedly the most secure thing for a girl who is alone.
The finance office is quiet and orderly. Everyone's pay slip is issued using two long pieces of paper sandwiched together. This effectively protects employees' privacy and makes it difficult for others to see the specific content.
This kind of detail warmed her heart. She didn't expect that the management of this company would be so meticulous and thoughtful.
After Shen Yan came out of the Finance Department, she went straight back to her seat in the warehouse.
Colleagues around me have started looking through their pay slips. Some look happy, while others sigh quietly.
She took a deep breath and carefully unfolded the foldered pay slip, ready to see what her pay was for the month.
She didn't know until she saw it. When she did, she could hardly believe her eyes - her pay slip showed a full 1,503 yuan!
“Oh my God!”
