I learned skills in a different world

For the square and cylindrical bellows, in order to prevent accidents, Shen Fangshi first made a scaled-down model of each.

Shen Fangshi made the two models and brought them to the workshop, and everyone gathered around them.

Looking at the model of the bellows, Lin Xiaotao came up and asked curiously: "Brother Lin Ku, what is this? I seem to have never seen it before."

Mo Yuting looked at it carefully and said hesitantly: "This device is extremely exquisite, but is it a push-pull rod? Is it related to ironmaking?"

Shen Fangshi smiled appreciatively and explained: "It is indeed related to iron-making. This is a blast box that can make the fireworks in the furnace burn brighter and brighter."

"Blower box?" It didn't look like it, and everyone was surprised.

Most of their current blowing devices are natural wind or leather bag bamboo tubes. Where have I seen such a device.

Shen Fangshi was about to explain when a side mission was suddenly triggered.

["Di - Congratulations to the host for triggering side mission 1 and successfully manufacturing a large double-action piston bellows. The time limit is three days.

Completion reward: A detailed drawing of the high-temperature iron-making furnace. "

"Dip - Congratulations to the host for triggering side mission 2, teaching three people to independently make a double-action piston bellows, within a seven-day time limit.

Completion reward: Coal mine distribution map (only applicable in and near Wei State in this world). ”]

Shen Fangshi's eyes lit up when he looked at the mission reward. What he needed most now was an iron-making furnace and coal.

These two side tasks must be completed. Shen Fangshi made up his mind and glanced at the people next to him.

Lin Xiaotao and Mo Yuting's bodies felt inexplicably cold.

Shen Fangshi smiled and said: "This is a device that can supply sufficient air to the iron-making furnace. It provides stronger wind than the previous blowing devices. As for whether it is feasible, we will know after trying it."

The bellows that was pushed and pulled by human hands was quickly tested, and the effect was indeed good. Although it was only a model, it can be seen that the blast efficiency was very high.

The water-driven bellows had to be tested in the water. Fortunately, Shen Fangshi chose a location close to the river for the new workshop, so he didn't have to go too far.

After successfully testing the two bellows, Shen Fangshi saw that the craftsmen and apprentices in the workshop were obviously very excited.

They all have a certain knowledge of carpentry, so they naturally know how valuable these two bellows are, but after seeing the results of the experiment, even people who don't know anything can probably figure it out.

Shen Fangshi said with a smile: "Those who are interested in this kind of bellows can first see how I make it. After learning it, if anyone can make a bellows independently, I will give a reward."

Lin Xiaotao and Shen Fangshi were relatively familiar with each other, so she asked directly: "Are both possible?"

Shen Fangshi nodded, "Yes, both types of bellows are acceptable, regardless of size."

This is his first time to do a limited time mission. He is not worried about Side Mission 1. Not to mention that he already knows the manufacturing process of double-action piston bellows. Even if there is not enough time, he can try it in the space simulation room first. Making a bellows for a large iron-making furnace would be much faster in real life once he became proficient. His physical strength was also much better now, and three days was enough.

Instead, Side Mission 2 requires the three people to independently make a double-action piston bellows, and there is still a seven-day time limit.

Mo Yuting and the others had only studied with Shen Fangshi for about a month, and their carpentry knowledge was too little. If he only limited himself to fifteen apprentices, he probably wouldn't have to think about the coal mine distribution map, no matter how talented he was.

But the other craftsmen in the workshop are different. Their carpentry skills are somewhat higher than Shen Fangshi's. After all, with their working experience, they can probably make it just by looking at it once.

Therefore, Shen Fangshi really placed his hope on the experienced carpenters for this task, but he still had to give apprenticeship opportunities.

In fact, carpenters have long been interested in double-acting piston bellows, but the technical knowledge among the craftsmen is kept confidential. Knowledge and technology are their foundation, and no one is willing to disclose it to others, even apprentices and masters. He will not give everything to others easily.

Although Shen Fangshi didn't care, they also knew that Shen Fangshi was not a person who cherished his broomsticks. On the contrary, he was quite willing to teach others the skills of making various tools.

However, the carpenters still abide by the rules and will not learn techniques at will just because Shen Fangshi is generous.

However, after Shen Fangshi took the initiative to say that he could learn it and would be rewarded if he made it alone, the carpenters became excited and almost all the carpenters participated.

It doesn’t matter whether they are rewarded or not, what is important is that they are really interested in the new bellows.

The blacksmiths also came over one by one with expectant eyes to join in the fun. Nonsense, although they are not carpenters and cannot do carpentry, this kind of bellows is made for them to use.

One of the craftsmen shouted: "Mr. Lin, what is the reward? Do you have any money?"

Shen Fangshi laughed and said: "Yes, if the bellows made by the top three people who make it first passes the standard, then these three people will be rewarded with five taels of silver. If they make it alone later, as long as the time is within seven days, each of them will be rewarded with one tael." silver."

After thinking for a while, he added: "If you don't need silver, you can exchange it for grain of equal value."

Everyone became excited. What is the concept of five taels of silver? An ordinary family only needs a few taels of silver for food, clothing, housing and transportation for a year. With two taels of silver, you can buy a cow or two or three sheep.

Craftsmen like them only receive 600 cash per month in addition to rice and grain, which is higher than the wages of military craftsmen in weapons workshops. This is already a high salary.

Not to mention, the silver can be exchanged for grain of equivalent value.

At the border, sometimes food is more important than money. After all, nowadays we rely on the sky for food. If something goes wrong, there may be no harvest. In times of famine, even if you have money, you will not be able to buy food.

Now, as long as you successfully make a tool, you can get five taels of silver for free, and anyone is willing to do it.

He is not short of money now. Not to mention that the workshop has his 10% profit, but he has not touched the one hundred taels that Chu Kui gave him before. He is not short of food, and Chu Kui rewarded him with space and money. He can't finish all the food in the world. Rather than leaving it there to waste, it's better to use it to provide welfare to everyone.

Sure enough, with the encouragement of money and food, everyone is now much more enthusiastic about making bellows. When he was making the double-action piston bellows, everyone's eyes were glaring, for fear of missing a detail.

Shen Fangshi deliberately slowed down his speed and explained while doing it, so that the students could see clearly.

It was at this time that Chu Kui came.

Before he even got closer, he heard the harsh sound of cutting and sawing wood, and Shen Fangshi's slow voice, like a clear spring in the mountains. The two sounds sounded at the same time, creating the ultimate contrast.

When I got closer, I saw a dozen people gathered in a circle, intently looking at Shen Fangshi's workmanship.
