Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

Li Ke continued to explain to everyone how to increase the furnace temperature.

"It can still be like this!"

Hearing Li Ke's words, the old craftsman showed a deep look of surprise on his face again.

He really didn't think about increasing the height of the blast furnace.

"So, you can't passively wait for the accumulation of technology to make progress, but actively think about how to improve technology, so as to speed up the progress of technology!"

"And you need to open your mind, don't have limitations, dare to guess, dare to try!"

Li Keyu said this to everyone in earnest.

These craftsmen are the backbone of the establishment of the industrial system in the future, but it is not enough for now. He needs these craftsmen to have innovative thinking and creative ability.

Their foundation is very good, they just need to be guided by him in the future, and they should be able to cultivate them.

"Yes, I would like to follow His Highness King Wu's instruction!"

Everyone answered loudly, convinced.

I can't accept it!

They have been smelting iron for so many years and have not solved the problem, and the king of Wu solved it as soon as he came.

This is professional!

Those who are masters are teachers, and Li Ke is more professional. Everyone naturally admires Li Ke from the bottom of their hearts.

"So, we need to modify the ironmaking furnace first, and add a preheating furnace next to it to heat the air!"

Li Ke gave the blueprint to the little supervisor, and asked him to bring people to build the furnace in the shortest possible time.

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, I will build the blast furnace as quickly as possible!"

The little supervisor took over the drawings and assured Li Ke confidently.

They are the Ministry of Industry here, and they are responsible for the construction of various buildings. This small matter will not trouble them.

"Build a few more. Next, in addition to ironmaking, steelmaking is also required!"

Li Ke is not only satisfied with making iron. Although iron has many uses, the metal he really needs is steel!

Many of his next plans will require steel, and a lot of steel!

"Yes!"

The workshop supervisor nodded again.

In fact, he was not surprised by this.

Although he is a supervisor, he is also a craftsman, and he knows that the difficulty of steelmaking lies in the furnace temperature.

Now that there is a blast furnace and blast heating, the temperature of the furnace can definitely be raised.

In this way, the problem of steelmaking is also solved!

"We will also build a few of these furnaces."

Li Ke seemed to have thought of something, and drew a blueprint with a pen on the spot.

The temperature required for steelmaking is very high. Even if the furnace height is increased and preheated by blasting, it may be difficult to reach the furnace temperature required for steelmaking.

At this time, you need to start with the heating source.

Coke!

Because it can emit a lot of heat when it burns, it has always been the main heating source for steelmaking!

As long as the coke is removed, the furnace temperature can be heated enough to make steel.

It's just that coke is processed from coal. Next, he needs to buy a few coal mines according to the mine map that he wrote down in his mind.

After explaining the task to the craftsmen, he came to the carpenter's workshop again.

The drum car is a wooden structure, so it is not limited by raw materials.

"His Royal Highness, the structure of the bobbin car is quite complicated, and there are a lot of parts, so the daily output is really limited."

The little supervisor of the carpenter's workshop explained to Li Ke with a embarrassed face.

And everyone has never been in contact with bobbins before, and it takes some time to get familiar with how to process each part.

Once the size is not suitable, it has to be remade, which is time-consuming and laborious.

"You can use the assembly line method, division of labor and cooperation."

Li Ke saw at a glance the reason why their production speed was slow, that is, the way of cooperation was wrong!

They are a group of several people, and each group is responsible for building a bobbin.

Not to mention that the bobbin car made by everyone may have different sizes, and the efficiency of such a matching method is also very low.

Because each person needs to learn to build a large number of parts, this will greatly reduce efficiency.

"Assembly line? Division of labor and cooperation?"

The little manager and the craftsmen all looked confused, not understanding what Li Ke meant by the assembly line.

What is the pipeline?

They remember that there is no need to use thread to make bobbins?

"That is, divide the bobbin car into how many parts, each person is responsible for one of the parts, and don't care about anything else, just build this part."

"Only building one part makes it much easier to get started. Each person has one part, and when these parts are assembled, it becomes a complete bobbin car!"

"Moreover, since the individual parts are all made by the same person, the size and size are exactly the same. In this way, even if a bobbin car breaks down in the future, you only need to replace it with one part!"

Li Ke briefly introduced the concept of assembly line division of labor to everyone.

After listening, the young manager and the craftsmen immediately fell into deep thought.

Thinking about it carefully, the division of labor and cooperation on the assembly line that Li Ke said seems to make sense!

Human energy is limited, and the efficiency of making ten different parts at the same time is completely different from making ten same parts!

Each person only makes one kind of parts, so the speed of getting started will be very fast, and the more proficient they are, the faster and faster the production speed will be!

Everyone is only responsible for making their own parts. When everyone has made their own parts, and someone assembles these parts, it will become a complete bobbin car!

Compared with the previous efficiency of a group of several people, this efficiency has improved by a lot!

"His Royal Highness King Wu's assembly line operation is really ingenious!"

The little supervisor and a group of craftsmen looked at Li Ke with admiration in their eyes!

PS: Fifth more! .

Chapter 76 Net profit of three thousand guan!The prototype of luxury!

Craftsmen like them are afraid of laymen leading experts.

They thought Li Ke was an outsider.

Unexpectedly, when Li Ke came over, they would change their traditional working methods.

Putting forward the concept of assembly line operation greatly improved their work efficiency at once!

They still like a boss like Li Ke very much.

"During the production process, you must pay attention to standardization!"

"The parts made by everyone must be built strictly according to the size marked on the drawing, and the error of each part must be controlled within a very small range!"

"Only in this way can the parts made by everyone be assembled seamlessly, and in the future, once the parts are damaged, they can be replaced directly with new parts."

Li Ke then emphasized to them the most important point of assembly line production~, that is standardization!

Standardization must be achieved. If the manufactured parts are one big and one small, then even a bobbin may not be able to be assembled!

"So, to achieve standardization, firstly, the craftsmen themselves must meet sufficient standards, and secondly, an auditor must be arranged to measure each component. Once the error exceeds the allowable range, the component will be discarded."

"In the later stage, a reward system will be established. Whoever has a good product rate of more than [-]% will get an additional bonus, and whoever has a good product rate of less than [-]% will have no bonus."

"Once three consecutive statistics are made and the good product rate is lower than [-]%, I will be dismissed from the Ministry of Industry directly!"

However, standardization cannot be achieved by talking about it. It also requires special auditors and corresponding reward and punishment mechanisms.

Next, his job is to modernize the Ministry of Industry, improve the efficiency of the overall operation, and expand productivity!

Moreover, it is necessary to gather senior craftsmen and set up a research and development department, which is responsible for tackling difficulties and developing some new technologies.

If he develops the most inconspicuous Ministry of Industry among the six departments into the most dazzling department, he will be able to show his ability to everyone!

Li Shimin will definitely see it, increasing his status and weight in Li Shimin's heart.

After all, who wouldn't want their heir to be a capable individual?

After listening to the ideas Li Ke said, and the plan to be implemented next.

All the craftsmen looked at each other in blank dismay. They had a feeling that the Ministry of Industry would definitely usher in huge changes next!

And this change is still good for them at present.

First, the work is easier. I only need to make my own parts, and I don’t need to learn this and that.

Second, as long as you carefully build parts and components, the good product rate will reach more than [-]%, and you can get extra bonuses!

The Ministry of Industry is the department with the worst treatment among the six ministries, not to mention the treatment of their craftsmen.

And now there is a channel for additional bonuses, how can this not make them happy?

They are still very confident in their craftsmanship, even if they can't reach it, they should study hard and strive to achieve a higher level of craftsmanship!

"Thank you His Highness King Wu!"

All the craftsmen sincerely thank Li Ke.

"Go to work."

Li Ke said everything he should have said, so he left here.

Today is just his first appointment, so he came over to have a brief look.

Next, he will make a plan and write down all the places that need to be changed.

Give it to Duan Lun to read it first, and then implement the plan in the Ministry of Industry.

Even though Duan Lun is his uncle, he trusted him to delegate power.

But Duan Lun is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry after all, his immediate boss.

In the workplace, there is still a minimum of respect.

Afterwards, he walked around other workshops in the Ministry of Industry, and after learning about the situation, it was almost time to leave work.

In this way, Li Ke's first day of work after coming to the Tang Dynasty was over.

He returned home in the carriage of the palace, and after dinner, he listened to Liu Zhong report to him some things that happened today.

For example, many people came to Li Min's house today, wanting some tea and soap.

Li Yin also followed Li Ke's instructions, as long as anyone who went, gave some.

But not much, for example, the tea is estimated to be enough for a family to make two pots of tea.

The soap is also cut into several small pieces from a large piece. If it is used for washing hands, it can be washed several times. For bathing, it is estimated that it is almost enough to wash it once or twice.

But what Li Ke wants is this kind of effect, which not only allows them to experience the goodness of the product, but does not give them enough quantity.

Only in this way can we maintain a high enough popularity and ensure that after the product is launched, these people will become the first batch of customers!

Of course, in addition to this, I also heard a lot of gossip.

For example, so-and-so was driven to the study by his wife last night, and so-and-so was given a death order not to go home until he got these two things today.

Among them was the gossip about his uncle, Duan Lun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

Hearing these news, Li Ke couldn't help laughing.

He really underestimated the personality of the Tang woman!

However, we must not let everyone know that the instigator is him, otherwise he will become the public enemy of so many ministers!

In the evening, he went to the backyard of the palace to inspect it.
