Since ancient times, talented people have been born in the Red Chamber

Chapter 414 Then everyone squats together to watch the cold winter play? (Second update)
Chapter 413

"Thank you sir, there will be 100 people, not one less." Wang Yang stood up, saluted Chen Andao, then turned and left.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"I have to find a way to find people. Otherwise, there are only 40 people. Do you think you can really solve the problem before the end of next autumn?" Wang Yang answered without replying and left in a hurry. Go, I really don’t want to see the confused face of this innocent and kind-hearted old man.

"Oh... ok, then you should go and think of a solution quickly. If anything happens, just come and find me. Alas... Anyway, that's all I can do." Wang Yang walked away without looking back. Chen Andao rolled his eyes angrily, returned to his desk, sat down, and sighed.

As soon as the words of emotion fell, he saw Wang Yang appearing at the door of the room again, which shocked Chen Andao. "Hey, why are you back again?"

"By the way, sir, didn't you ask how many slave laborers can be given to us after the autumn harvest?" Wang Yang said with a bit of scorn. He was in a hurry just now and actually forgot about this important matter.

"Oh, I also asked Ning Shangshu about this, but what Ning Shangshu meant was that this year is about the same as in previous years, but for the sake of taking over this big project as the supervisor, we will assign 300 more people to us. "Chen Andao hastened to show his merits and said authentically.

"How much was it before? A few hundred?" When Wang Yang heard this, he was a little disappointed, but at least it was more than nothing, which gave people some hope.

"It turns out that there are probably 300 servants assigned to us as prisons. However, you can only get half of the [-] servants, and the [-] people are not too small."

"Indeed, it's quite a lot. It's a pity, how many days will they be able to work after the autumn harvest?" Wang Yang grinned. This is so funny. Give yourself three or four hundred?Even if a laborer gives himself three or four thousand after the autumn harvest, at most he can complete the construction of the first batch of projects before the freeze. After all, more people are not enough to do things, and it also takes time.

Then just squat together and watch the game in the cold weather?Depend on!
Wang Yang didn't say anything more, he cupped his hands hastily towards Chen Andao, raised his legs again and disappeared out the door. "This kid..." Seeing Wang Yang acting like this, Chen Andao could only whisper something about how the world was declining, people's hearts were not as old as before, and subordinates didn't know how to be respectful to their superiors.

After returning to his yamen, Wang Yang sat in his office thinking hard, and decided to see how those skilled craftsmen were doing.

It's been several days, and here, there are dozens of pairs of lenses that have been cut and the thickness will not exceed three millimeters.

And in addition to those skilled craftsmen, there are also some craftsmen within the general who know how to grind jade and jewelry are also helping.

After Wang Yang walked over, he looked around the craftsmen. There would be an apprentice shaking the shaft, while the craftsmen controlled the lens and rubbed it against the piece of deerskin to increase its smoothness.

Seeing the craftsmen shaking a cup of tea, some apprentices had to stop, moving their sore wrists, and continuing after a while.

"You used to use this kind of grinder to polish jade and gemstones?" Wang Yang couldn't help but feel a toothache when he saw that more than ten craftsmen here were doing this. Isn't this kind of work efficiency too bad?

"Yes, Mr. Zhuangyuan, we all use grinders like this." The old craftsman replied.

Wang Yang looked at it, it didn't have any mechanical principle at all, it was just a handle, connected to a wooden stick, and it was an outrageous grinder with a simple structure. After looking at it for a long time, Wang Yang didn't talk nonsense.

Instead, he turned around and walked out the door, and then went to find two guys who were good at carpentry and asked them to build some wooden components they needed. Then he drew a few pictures and told Wu Qilang to go to the room where Buy it and use it to be built by a blacksmith who is currently specialized in making iron stoves and various screws.

What Wang Yang wanted was very simple. When Wang Yang came back to the Yamen the next day, the craftsmen used the wood in the office to build it.

And Wang Yang also took out the long levers that the blacksmith had made yesterday, and began to splice them together.The two famous carpenters watched in amazement as Wang Yang, the majestic number one scholar, did it himself.

A few holes were drilled on the wooden table like a student's desk, and then the main component made of cast iron was fixed on it first, and then the levers below were connected.

Soon, a prototype of a somewhat nondescript simple reciprocating lathe appeared in front of people's eyes.

"Mr. Zhuangyuan, what is this thing used for?" A craftsman who helped fix and install the machine couldn't help asking curiously.

"This thing is called a machine tool. It has countless uses. For example, it can be used to grind crystal lenses. Come on, let's see how I operate it." Wang Yang smiled proudly, sat down, and rested his feet again. After stepping hard on the pedal, the wooden board below carries the lever, and then drives the upper running wheel.

After that, everyone saw Wang Yang clasping his hands in front of his chest, exerting only slight pressure on his feet, while the straight iron rod on top was spinning very fast.This is the prototype sewing machine that was most popular in the 80s and appeared more than 1000 years in advance.

Don't underestimate this kind of thing, this is definitely the prototype of a modern machine tool. With this thing, grinding, or drilling, or even cutting can all be done on this simple machine tool. Of course, it can also continue its essence. work, sewing.

After a little effort, a wooden wheel was attached to the tip of the straight metal stick, and after the negative watch was wrapped with the deerskin that was going to be polished, those artisans who had started grinding next door early in the morning They were called over.

An old craftsman stepped on the pedal tremblingly, watching the deerskin wheel in front of him spinning rapidly. He finally came to his senses, and then began to carefully grind it on it.

After the time of a cup of tea and the time of a stick of incense passed, the old craftsman slowly stopped. "Well, this baby, Zhuangyuangong, this baby is ten times stronger than the little old man's grinding machine, no, even more than a hundred times, Zhuangyuangong is indeed the reincarnation of the Wenqu star in the sky..."

"Okay, being ten times more powerful is already the limit. Stop trying to flatter me. You can try it first. If you really think it works, I will purchase a few more." Wang Yang laughed. , gesturing to the curious craftsmen to come forward and admire their masterpieces.

Turning his head, he looked at Mr. Tu Shantu who was looking at the machine with puffy eyes. "Master Tu, why are you here?"

"Master Chen has already explained that I don't have to go to the Ministry of Industry to wait any longer. Wait, you must have invented this thing too, right?"

"Well, they're just small things, they're not worth mentioning because they're not on the stage." Wang Yang said modestly.

Tu Shan looked at Wang Yang, who was standing in front of him, pretending to be aggressive, with a dark expression on his face, and said to himself that this is not worth mentioning.
　I'm not feeling well, so I only have two updates. I apologize.
