Being Reborn And Starting Off By Not Being A Simp-Chapter 104: The Tyrannical Boss

Now, there were only a dozen production workers left in the mask factory. They could only get a basic salary every month. There was not much work to do at all.

It was quite easy. He worked eight hours a day and five days a week.

However, with 2,000 yuan a month, life was tight. After work and on the weekends, they had to find other part-time jobs to support their families.

Now that Liu Qing had directly raised their basic salary to 3,000 yuan, it was an increase of half of their income. Of course, they were happy.

What was even happier was that Liu Qing also said that if they wanted to work overtime in the future, they could fill in a volunteer overtime form and arrange for them to work overtime.

Some young people might think that this was unlikely. Who would be happy to have a lot of overtime in the future? Wouldn’t it be a fool to rejoice over being exploited by capitalists?

However, the truth was that there were indeed many people in this world who were willing to work overtime. Some of them even had several jobs.

The reason was simple-poor.

When people were poor, it was enough as long as they had the opportunity to earn money. It didn’t matter if they worked hard or not, whether they had dignity or not, and whether they were exploited by capitalists didn’t matter.

This was especially true for a married person. They had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of supporting their family. Without the ability to make a lot of money, they could only work harder to earn money.

Liu Qing himself was from the bottom. Even if he was in a property management company, the security guards would not be happy to have an extra day off than their colleagues.

If they were arranged to rest during the legal holidays, they would be even more unhappy because they would be paid three times the overtime pay for those days.

The basic salary was 3,000 yuan, and the overtime pay had to be calculated at the base of 3,000 yuan. This way, their overtime pay would also increase by half.

If he had enough overtime, it wouldn’t be difficult to earn six or seven thousand a month. Wouldn’t it be better than part-time?

Liu Qing expressed his stance, and the front-line employees immediately applauded enthusiastically.

It was much more enthusiastic than when Nian Fengyan announced that he was the new boss of the factory.

Liu Qing didn’t feel the pinch at all.

He knew how useful these employees were at critical moments.

He was still thinking of keeping these employees to continue working overtime during the New Year. At that time, every employee was a huge and precious asset.

Whether it was for himself or for society, it was the same.

Of course, he did not want these employees to leave because of low wages. He had to find a way to keep them.

This was all small money.

In front of the workers, Liu Qing said to the factory director,

"You don’t have to worry that the masks won’t sell. I have my channels. You can produce as many masks as you can, as long as you don’t break the machine."

The factory manager was surprised and happy, but he quickly frowned.

"But the materials we have in the warehouse are only enough for a month of production. If they were to produce at full capacity, it would only be enough for half a month."

"Then buy the materials! Give me tens of times, hundreds of times!"Liu Qing said arrogantly.

Nian Fengyan had yet to leave and was stunned when he heard that. He said kindly,"Brother Qing, do you want to reconsider? This mask market might not be as big as you think. It’s not a good thing to stock up on too many materials."

Anyway, the factory had already been transferred out and the money had already been made. He could persuade Liu Qing as a friend.

"It doesn’t matter. I have international channels."Liu Qing said casually," I want to make this mask factory the largest in the world. If we don’t even have enough production materials, how can we produce it?"

This statement sounded inexplicably familiar.

Nian Fengyan looked at Liu Qing and was suddenly in a daze.

"This person has my past glory!"

Just like when he first started his business, he was just as arrogant, as stupid, and as ignorant.

For a moment, he didn’t know if he should continue persuading her.

He knew that Liu Qing was going down a wrong path. The bigger the investment, the bigger the mistake.

However, he had also had those moments when he harbored dreams. He knew that at this moment, he would not be able to persuade anyone.

If he persuaded her too much, she might even be seen as a bad person who prevented her from becoming the king of masks.

That would hurt their relationship.

In the end, he decided to give up on persuading her.

He thought to himself, It’s good to have dreams and the passion to chase them. There’s no need for me to disturb people’s dreams. His family’s assets were worth tens of billions, so he could afford this tuition fee."

The factory manager stuttered," Boss, how many materials do we need to buy?""

Liu Qing did not know the price of the most important production material, the melt blown cloth. Anyway, no matter what the price was, he was sure of one thing, and that was that he would definitely make a fortune if he hoarded it.

He said,"Buy me a 50 million yuan melt blown cloth.""

Nian Fengyan and the factory manager were both stunned.

They used medical BFE99 grade melt blown non-woven fabrics to produce disposable anti-virus masks, which cost about 50,000 yuan per ton.

If he bought 50 million yuan worth of medical BFE99 grade melt blown cloth, that would be 1,000 tons.

One ton of melt blown cloth could produce about one million disposable anti-virus masks.

One thousand tons was equivalent to one billion masks.

There wasn’t such a big market in the world, right? 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Boss, we don’t have a place to put so many melt blown cloths," the factory manager said in fear."

Liu Qing pointed at the large open space in front of him and said to the factory manager arrogantly,"

"You don’t have to worry about not having a place to put the meltblown cloth, and you don’t have to worry about not having a place to put the masks. These places will soon be built into warehouses. It’s fine if I don’t want to enter the mask industry, but since I’m here, I must be the best in the world!"

He was a complete layman in this industry.

However, he also knew that the biggest problem restricting the production of masks during the epidemic was the lack of raw materials.

After the epidemic, the price of the melt blown cloth needed to produce anti-virus masks soared, which also increased the cost of mask production.

He had to stock up on enough Meltblown Cloth in advance.

Otherwise, with machines and workers, but no raw materials, how could they produce?

Originally, the global mask market was very small. There was not such a large demand, so naturally, there was not much supply.

However, he believed that as long as he created a greater demand, there would be a greater supply.

He said to the factory manager very seriously,

"To be the world’s number one mask factory is not a slogan for me. It’s something that will start soon. If you can still contact the employees who were previously trained in the factory, contact them for me. Tell them that as long as they are willing to come back to work here, I welcome them to come over and will give each of them a 1,000 yuan fare subsidy. If they are not willing to come over, then quickly recruit new employees for me and train them as soon as possible."

"As I said, you don’t have to worry about the sales. I’ll take care of it. All you have to do is produce, produce, and reproduce!"
