"Can you get the job done by yourself?" Wan Feng asked worriedly.
It doesn’t matter who is working here now; what matters is that the work is done.
Can Liu Yang be taken down? Although he has no hair on his mouth, Wan Feng also feels that he is not doing his job well.
"As long as the equipment is complete, taking the piston ring alone is no problem. Making the piston requires some skill, but I can't do it myself. I need some helpers who understand heat treatment."
"Once your factory is open, you can hire these people. Tell us how much space and equipment you need, and make a list. Also, list where you can buy these equipment. You should know where they're sold."
Liu Yang was obviously prepared. He took out a thick piece of paper and handed it to Wan Feng.
It listed the venue, machines and other things he needed.
"Ah! Two hundred square meters is enough?"
"It's more than enough. Didn't you see how small your piston ring is? Why would you need so much space?"
Don’t underestimate something because it’s small, but it’s not necessarily small where you need it, okay?
But if you think about the piston ring, which is about the same thickness as a child's wrist, it really doesn't seem to require too much space.
If it’s only 200 square meters, then you can just put it in the yard of the machinery factory. As the machinery factory is about to be split up, a space of more than 200 square meters is no big deal.
"We will order the equipment you requested immediately."
The equipment Liu Yang needed included a lathe, small heat treatment equipment and chrome plating equipment. The total investment for the entire set was around 60,000 yuan, which was a huge investment, at least in 1983.
The big one here is one of the most advanced lathes in the country at that time. It was produced by a factory in Bohai and it was said that it used outdated technology licensed from the Japanese.
The Japanese already had three-axis and four-axis lathes at that time, but except for a small number of three-axis lathes, they would not sell the rest to China.
One can imagine what kind of stuff they authorized, but even these discarded products were more advanced than China's at the time.
Wan Feng suddenly thought of this problem and felt powerless. At the same time, he felt an urge to build a lathe.
It's not like he hasn't seen a five-axis lathe before, and he understands the mechanics, but the computer control software...
Although chip-based substrates are now available,…
Forget it for now. The conditions are not right now. Let’s wait a few years.
The lathe and chrome plating equipment were found in the resident factory, while the heat treatment was ordered from other places.
Through the machinery factory, Liu Yang recruited five skilled machinists in the first batch. These people were responsible for the initial rough processing of the piston rings. After they completed the rough processing, he would complete the later fine processing.
After arranging a meal for the people from the County Quality Inspection Bureau, the beverages from the Innahe Beverage Factory were finally put on the market. The first batch of beverages had five flavors, and the 500 boxes of beverages produced on the first day of the market were all distributed to stores at the supply and marketing cooperative level.
The factory price of the beverage is 1.2 cents and the retail price is 1.5 cents.
Excluding labor, electricity, and material costs, there is a profit of 5 cents on a bottle of beverage, a profit of 1.2 yuan on a box of 24 bottles, and a profit of 600 yuan on producing 500 boxes a day.
It doesn't sound like a small amount, but it's hard to say whether 500 boxes can be sold every day. It depends on the market consumption situation.
When the beverages at the beverage factory began to be sold, the Inna River magazine, which condensed Jiang Min's hard work, was also printed and began to be distributed.
The first issue was not free, but only a dime was charged for its production cost. Jiang Min and Yan Ling distributed the first thousand copies in the market, which almost caused a stampede. If Zhang Xian had not brought the security team to maintain order at the scene, there would have been a riot.
Almost all the articles in this publication come from people who work in various industries in the market. Some of them have been writing for many years and have never published a single piece of tofu, but now they occupy a whole page in this magazine. How can they not be excited when they see their names turned into lead type?
Although these people are considered wealthy due to their years of doing business here, many of them still have a dream in their hearts.
In addition to the authors themselves who paid to buy a copy, there were also customers who came and went here. When they picked up their goods and were about to return, they saw magazines for sale and bought one to relieve the loneliness of their journey.
Even so, the one thousand publications were not enough for the market to absorb, so Xiao Jun, who was in charge of renting out the magazines at the market, used a tricycle to pull another load from the garment factory.
Some people look at the content and some people look at the cover.
So some advertisements caught the eyes of some businesses.
"Inna River Drink? Isn't this the same drink that just arrived in the boxes at Manager Glass Flower's store? Not to mention that this picture is really thirsty. Go buy a bottle and try it."
"Hey, aren't these the rubber shoes I sell? I didn't expect them to look so good after all this fiddling. Why didn't I notice it before?"
"Holy crap! There are even tricycles and tractors from the machinery factory here."
"There's also an introduction to the market. Eh? Isn't that silly guy you, Old Dong? Old Dong is on the back cover of the magazine."
"You're the silly one, look how energetic you made me look!"
"Come on, you're still so energetic even with your eyes closed!"
"Yeah! Next time if I take a picture again I will definitely not blink an eye."
This magazine not only caused a sensation at the market, but also sparked a lot of discussion in the garment factory.
Because many people from the garment factory also submitted their works, and because of Jiang Min's relationship, many female workers in the garment factory were also on the list.
"This is a piece by Xiaocao, which is written by Director Jiang. It's really well written."
"Xiao He, this is what you wrote. Wow! What is this?"
