Chapter 74

North of Qingzhou City.

When Xiao Ming arrived at the iron and steel workshop, he called on the craftsmen to teach him how to use the hydraulic forging hammer effectively.

This iron and steel workshop is made of green bricks. On the one hand, this structure can effectively prevent fire, but also strong enough.

These green bricks came from the brick kiln in the workshop area. At first, Xiao Ming's goal was red bricks, but he gradually found that the use of red bricks in this era was wasteful, and green bricks were enough.

In this way, it can also save costs.

The material for building all kinds of workshops is naturally cement. Since the limestone mine provided enough limestone, he began to calcine cement for the construction of workshop area.

Moreover, in the workshop area, several main roads all use cement pavement, which makes the workshop area very clean and convenient for transportation.

The emergence of these two building materials has long attracted the attention of Qingzhou businessmen, but Xiao Ming did not intend to open these two technologies to the outside world.

However, he believes that the green brick is very easy to master. It is estimated that businessmen can use clay to make it just when they see it. After all, the pottery and porcelain industry in Dayu is still very developed, which can't be concealed.

But cement is not the same. First of all, limestone ore, and then the firing process. Without any of them, cement can not be produced.

Although businessmen are discussing these two things, they are not interested in them.

because in their view, the value of these two things is not high, far less than perfume, and soap can bring real benefits to them.

There is no concept of real estate here.

"Assembly line means that everyone is only responsible for the production of their own parts, which are assembled at the end, so every production team of hydraulic hammer will get it." Facing the craftsmen of the steel workshop, Xiao Ming taught them the concept of assembly line production.

In the past, the working habit of craftsmen was that everyone was responsible for making a suit of armor, but this method would be eliminated under industrial production.

Chen Qi and Chen Wenlong nodded secretly. They had never thought of this mode of production at that time, but as soon as Xiao Ming mentioned it, they immediately understood the advantages of this mode.

Each group of craftsmen focus on their own accessories, which can make them quickly familiar with the products in their hands. The forging speed is very fast, practice makes perfect, and the speed will be greatly improved.

In the workshop, Xiao Ming introduced the concept of assembly line. He called Chen Qi and said, "you are familiar with the craftsmen. Now that the forging hammer is out, let's divide the craftsmen into groups today."

Chen Qi also doesn't understand what stimulation Xiao Ming has suffered today. Some time ago, he was negligent of the workshop. He suddenly felt like he had beaten chicken blood and had to direct everything himself.

But when he thought about it, he understood that he knew too little. Sometimes he really admired the king of Qi, because he seemed to have endless ideas.

Under Xiao Ming's on-site supervision, Chen Qi naturally did not dare to be careless. According to the work that each craftsman was good at, he turned the craftsman in the iron and steel workshop into ten groups, and each group was responsible for one process.

Most of the craftsmen in the steel workshop are slaves, and each group is led by a skilled craftsman.

Now the skilled workers will also have a problem with Xiao Ming, because this is not a problem that can be solved by relying on the teaching of knowledge.

Although the equipment department let skilled craftsmen to train them, most of them are only apprentices.

"Oh, please, where is the craftsman going to find it? "Xiao Ming murmured to himself.

Chen Wenlong said at this time: "Your Highness, craftsmen are certainly the fastest plundered in the war. In the past, the barbarians plundered many skilled craftsmen from Dayu. Now, not only do they not lose their armor and weapons, but they even use a torch when they attack the city."

"The barbarians learned very quickly. The torch has not appeared in the state of Dayu for decades, but they all learned it." Xiao Ming is very worried.

Today's era belongs to the 17th century, but the firearms of the state of Dayu are still in the initial stage. This torch is also the most primitive level. It only shoots stone bullets with a range of less than 100 meters. However, even so, these torches have quite shocking effects in the siege.

Chen Wenlong also frowned, "the barbarians in the north are becoming more and more powerful, and their national strength is gradually not lost to Dayu. Koryo, who used to submit to Dayu, now becomes a minister to the barbarians."

"Koryo." Xiao Ming sneered, saying that this Bangzi country has always been a grass on the wall, and even in modern times, it can't be changed.

Xiao Ming remembers that in the history books of Dayu state, when Dayu state was founded, the officials of Koryo special mission paid tribute to it.

I didn't expect that the owner has changed now.

"Not to mention Korea, let's say that when Dayu was strong and prosperous, our country paid tribute to Dayu every year and exchanged countless gold and silver with the small gifts. Now, seeing Dayu being bullied by barbarians, we don't care about our old friends, but also feel disrespectful. We often plunder the coastal areas of Dayu. Ah."

At any time, there are people with lofty ideals who lament the fate of the country. Although Chen Wenlong doesn't speak much, he is also a person who cherishes his family and country.

Seeing the people of Dayu being insulted by other people, I felt indignant.However, the state of Dayu is still intoxicated with the dream of the kingdom of heaven, and the prosperity of the south makes officials indulge in the gentle hometown and ignore the constant crisis.

In Xiao Ming's mind, the knowledge of Korea and Japan is not much, but it is certain that these two countries have also changed because of the change of history.

Korea should have been called Korea at this time in history, but this name was given to the Lee Dynasty of Korea by Zhu Yuanzhang, and this Lee Dynasty was also a dynasty that overthrew Korea with the support of Ming Dynasty.

However, in this place, there is no Yuan Dynasty or Zhu Yuanzhang. With the support of the barbarians, the Wang Dynasty of Korea has continued to this day. Naturally, the name of Korea has not changed.

As for the Japanese invasion of Korea, this happened. The history of Dayu seems to have no great influence on the isolated island of the Japanese. The era of Toyotomi Hideki's rule still witnessed external expansion.

But this time, the Japanese were defeated by the barbarians. Because of this, the Japanese despised Dayu more and more.

Today, the Japanese nation has entered the era of Tokugawa Shogunate. In history, barbarians have always been afraid of power rather than virtue. Because of this, the Japanese pirates and ronins saw that the great Chongqing was rich and weak, and robbed many times.

"Chen bingcao doesn't have to sigh. It's better to do something than talk. Self pity can't change the current situation. If our king is strong and powerful, why should he be afraid of Hu Lu and barbarians. "Said Xiao Ming.

"Your Highness's lesson is that if the same is true for the lower officials, they are no different from the literati who talk about saving the country." Chen Wenlong said.

Xiao Ming nodded, which is what he meant. The truth is only within the range of the cannon. This is his truth.
