It all starts with killing the vicious dog

Chapter 218 Tricycle

With the permission of the factory manager, Zhao Shanhe started manufacturing tricycles.

There are ready-made steel pipes, steel bars, steel plates, gears, chains, etc. in the factory.

When he was about to leave work, he finished the frame and bucket.

"Just faucets, brakes, tires, sanding, and paint."

Go back to No. [-] courtyard, take a bath, eat and sleep, the moon is hidden and the sun is rising, and it is a new day.

Zhao Shanhe cut a piece of discarded tire and used it to make brake pads.

"Front handbrake, rear handbrake, plus a foot brake and a fixed brake."

After working for more than an hour, Zhao Shanhe got the brakes done.

"Five-speed transmission, more labor-saving uphill."

After modifying the gears, Zhao Shanhe tried it, and he was quite satisfied.

Not long after lunch, the tires purchased from the factory arrived.

The tire includes the hub, which can be used directly after installation.

Zhao Shanhe machined the axle, and then installed bicycle tires.

"Bicycles can only bear a few hundred kilograms, and tires will have to be customized in the future."

It is very simple to realize self-production of bicycle wheels with the technology, equipment and labor of a steel factory.

After polishing the whole car, Zhao Shanhe began to paint.

The next morning, he sanded again, followed by another coat of paint.

"The paint sprayed by the airbrush is smoother, and the paint brushed is a bit worse after all."

Take the tricycle to the steelmaking workshop, and the paint will cure quickly with the help of the temperature in the workshop.

Leaving the steelmaking workshop on a tricycle, Zhao Shanhe went to find the factory manager.

"That's it?" Liu Jianfei looked at the tricycle, his heart moved.

"Director, this car has five gears," Zhao Shanhe introduced.

"Put something on and test it." Liu Jianfei said.

Zhao Shanhe loaded five hundred catties of iron, and then rode a tricycle to test it.

"This car can pull more than 800 catties?" Liu Jianfei was stunned.

Five hundred catties of iron, plus the two of them, is more than 800 catties.

Zhao Shanhe said while riding a tricycle: "The tires and wheels are bicycles. Even if there are three wheels, they can't fit too much. If we mass-produce tricycles, we can customize tires."

"Yes, our factory can produce wheels." Liu Jianfei nodded.

When approaching the uphill, Zhao Shanhe stopped the tricycle and shifted to first gear.

Without much effort, the tricycle rushed up a slope tens of meters long.

The slope was more than [-] degrees, and with so many things on a single bike, it was easy to rush up, which surprised Liu Jianfei.

After turning around, the two returned to the factory.

Liu Jianfei looked at the time and said with a smile, "Let's go here today."

I'm off work right away, and the meeting can be put on tomorrow.

At seven o'clock the next morning, the factory director, deputy factory director, director, deputy director, supervisor, and deputy director gathered in a conference room.

"Everyone must have seen the tricycle outside." Liu Jianfei added, "I plan to set up another workshop to produce tricycles, and Zhao Shanhe will be the director of the workshop."

Lin Lei, the deputy factory manager in charge of the oxygen workshop, sintering workshop, and coking workshop, frowned and said, "Lao Liu, our factory still owes a lot of money to the bank, and we don't have the money to produce tricycles."

"Our factory has ready-made equipment, materials, and workers. We only need to customize some tires to produce tricycles. Bicycles sell for more than 400 yuan, and our tricycles can sell for at least [-] yuan." Liu Jianfei said.

Cheng Gang, the deputy factory director in charge of the iron-making, steel-making, and steel-rolling workshops, said: "I agree to produce tricycles, but wouldn't it be too reckless for Xiao Zhao to be the workshop director?"

"The tricycle was designed by Xiao Zhao. I believe he can be the director of this workshop." Liu Jianfei said.

"If that's the case, let's vote. Those who agree will raise their hands." After Linley finished speaking, he raised his hand first.

Seeing that the factory manager raised his hand in agreement, the rest of the people raised their hands one after another.

In terms of technology, Zhao Shanhe is already a seventh-level technician, and he is considered the top in the factory.

As for the management ability, that is a matter for the future.

If Zhao Shanhe's management is not good enough, it's a big deal to change someone.

Two hours later, the personnel department posted an announcement on the bulletin board in the factory.

After receiving the appointment, Zhao Shanhe began to recruit people in the factory.

Knowing that he became the workshop director, many people were dumbfounded.

After Liu Jianfei left the steel factory, he went to the bank to borrow 5 yuan.

Zhao Shanhe recruited [-] people from several workshops, including [-] technicians.

In the early stage of production of tricycles, not many people are needed.

Most materials are readily available in the factory, and only need to be welded and installed.

It took a few days to make five sets of molds for the production of tricycle wheels.

Taking the letter of introduction issued by the factory, Zhao Shanhe went to the tire factory with the wheels, and Zhao Shanhe ordered [-] tires.

Help the tire factory to complete the production process of special tires, and then follow the truck carrying [-] tires back to Xuyang Steel Plant.

In less than a day after the tires entered the factory, two hundred tricycles were built.

Of the 5 yuan provided by the factory, only 5000 yuan was spent.

Except for tires, all kinds of raw materials for tricycles are provided by the factory.

The machinery and equipment belong to the factory, and so do the workers.

To purchase something in the plan, a corresponding ticket is required.

Tricycles are currently an unplanned commodity and do not need a ticket for the time being.

Zhao Shanhe brought ten employees, each riding a tricycle, to the market to sell.

"How much is this car?" Zhang Kui, who was nearly forty years old, asked.

"One thousand." Zhao Shanhe replied.

"So expensive?" Zhang Kui frowned.

"Bicycles sell for more than 400 yuan. Our tricycle can hold more things. You can buy it for 1000 yuan. Now you can buy it without a ticket, and you may need a ticket in the future." Zhao Shanhe laughed.

"Is it easy to use?" Zhang Kui asked again.

Seeing many people gathered around, Zhao Shanhe introduced the tricycle: "With a load of [-] kilograms, you can go uphill with the first gear. The fifth gear is the fastest but also the most laborious. It is suitable for running on flat roads. "

"When you pass by, don't miss it. The latest tricycle can pull goods without refueling. As long as you can fit it, you can ride it." An employee yelled loudly.

"Can I try?" Zhang Kui asked.

"This is the front brake, this is the rear brake, and this is the foot brake." After Zhao Shanhe finished speaking, he motioned for the middle-aged man to test it himself.

"Old Wang, can you lend me a few bags of fertilizer?" Zhang Kui asked.

"Old Zhang, how many bags do you want?" Wang Sheng, who sells fertilizer, asked.

A bag of fertilizer is one hundred catties, Zhang Kui packed eight bags, and then rode a tricycle to test it.

Twenty minutes later, he rode the tricycle back, immediately took out the 1000 yuan he had just withdrawn, and said, "I bought this bike."

"Old Zhang, how is this car?" Wang Sheng asked curiously.

"It's much easier to use than a bicycle. It's very convenient to pack things and sit on people, and you don't need to refuel." Zhang Kui laughed.

"I'll buy one too." Wang Sheng walked into the house and took out 1000 yuan.

In less than two hours, eleven tricycles were sold out.

Zhao Shanhe and others took the money and returned to the steelworks, talking and laughing.

"Xiao Zhao, how are you?" Liu Jianfei asked eagerly.

"It's all sold out, here's the money." Zhao Shanhe handed over a stack of money.

"How much?" Liu Jianfei asked.

"The unit price is [-], and the total is [-]." Zhao Shanhe said, "There are still many people waiting to buy cars over there. I'll send the existing cars in the car over there."

"I'll call the tire factory right away and buy [-] tires first." Liu Jianfei laughed.

The unit price of a tire is five yuan, and three thousand tires are only fifteen thousand.

There are still a few days before the salary is paid, and the money I borrowed from the bank last time has more than 4 yuan left.

180 nine tricycles were looted by a group of people as soon as they were delivered to the market.

You can buy a tricycle with a wide range of uses without a ticket. After passing this village, there is no such shop.

Once the planned production of tricycles is implemented, if you want to buy a tricycle, you must have a ticket.
