technical type

There is also a chain of contempt among craftsmen. After signing up, someone will ask Ji Mo when they see him: "Are you Master Ji's closed disciple?"

"Yes, I am." Ji Mo, who thought he was about to face a challenge or something, received a warm greeting, but immediately after him, the one who signed up after him seemed to be neglected. It was only later that he found out that the other party's inheritance was not the same. It's not that hard, it's like competing within a class who has a deeper background. Of course, this kind of competition is a bit ridiculous in the eyes of the people above.

But I have to say that when selecting people, the people above will also compare these "backstages" and then assign them suitable positions.

Thanks to Master Ji's good reputation, Ji Mo didn't attract any hostility. A group of men gathered together to talk and laugh lively, and soon after Shangguan finished assigning tasks, he started to work.

The location of this Hongqiao is not far from where Ji Mo visited last time. The embankment has been repaired urgently, and it is already slightly visible.

In charge of the construction of the Hongqiao is a master surnamed Zhang. Master Zhang also has a family background, but he is from the North, sent by the government. He is usually responsible for some big projects built by the royal family. I am condescending.

His official language is very good, and his whole body looks like those scholars, with a bit of an official look. It is said that he is really a high-ranking craftsman, and he is considered an official in the eyes of ordinary people. The grades of the princes in the court are obviously not the same thing. He is nothing in front of those people, but in front of these local officials, he can hold some pomp.

Master Zhang is not the kind who can bully people. When he got an errand, he arranged it directly. He asked them what bridge builders are good at, and asked some questions. The answers were not bad, so he explained some important tasks. Hey, he didn't even understand the questions, so he assigned simple tasks. Anyway, he got the general inspection in the end, so he wouldn't let people get away with it.

Ji Mo also got a question here, and he asked directly about the fit of the arch. He had a plan in mind before, and now he answered with confidence and satisfaction.

Seeing him talking eloquently, Master Zhang stroked his beard and asked, "Have you built Hongqiao before?"

"That's not true. It's just that I have a plan and hope to participate."

After all, Ji Mo is a person who has learned culture, and he is still different from a native-born clumsy man. Even if he does not deliberately show this difference, it gives people a different feeling. It is a kind of temperamental highlight.

"Then tell me what it would be like if you made it."

Master Zhang directly asked a very broad question.

There are two kinds of answers to this kind of question, one is biased, directly talking about some vision and the like, as if someone asks what he wants to do in the future, not to be a teacher or an executive, but directly to say that he wants the world to be in harmony Kind of, it sounds too high and unattainable.

One is more realistic, answering how to do it specifically, what position to put each brick in, what structure to use, how to fix it, etc., which can be regarded as technical explanations.

Ji Mo chose to answer from a more practical point of view, not caring about the many people around him, and directly stated his expectation for the structure of the Hongqiao. Master Zhang nodded slightly when he heard it. It is only able to connect the two banks across the river, what kind of shape it is, and what method needs to be used, even if it is pieced together, it is a good bridge that can walk and use.

"Go to the side first, and talk about it later."

Master Zhang didn't directly comment on the quality of his answer, but asked people to wait aside, and then started to ask the people who came after him. After everyone had asked the question again and arranged an errand, he called Ji Mo who had no errands. Come to your side, "You follow me."

"Yes."

Ji Mo heard that there was a meaning of cultivation in it, and his face was a little happy. Although the Hongqiao is good, the project is too big, and there are so many people who are not familiar with it. It is really not that he wants to build it. This is not the time to build the mausoleum, and there is a general leading soldiers guarding it enough to scare everyone.

The people who can be appointed by the government are all well-known craftsmen in the local area. These craftsmen dare not fight with the government, but they dare not deal with their peers. Pushing you, if you can't finish it in the end, it must be the fault of the general.

Ji Mo is young, and his reputation is mostly based on the reputation of Master Ji. He has not built a few bridges seriously, and he is recognized among his peers. It is impossible for him like this to lead the construction of Hongqiao. He didn't even dare to accept the appointment, who knew what would happen if these people didn't deal with it.

The human heart is never measurable.

Now it is good to follow Master Zhang, watch him do it, and learn some tricks from it.

In the skill of bridge builder, in addition to superstition-related professional knowledge points, there is also the art of manipulating people, not many, just a little, but the reason why this kind of knowledge can be added shows that this is not a one-man job. things that can be accomplished.

Ji Mo is a weak point in this aspect, and he really needs to study hard.

This study lasted for 11 years, and I experienced many things. The worst thing was that a certain bridge builder secretly reduced materials during the construction process because of his anger, which resulted in the Hongqiao not supporting ten people after the final docking. It collapsed. As a result, Master Zhang was almost condemned. Fortunately, someone reported it soon, and it was found out that it was not Master Zhang's fault, so he was able to take charge of the reconstruction.

This is also a water conservancy hub. It is possible to set up brackets for bridge building, but these brackets cannot completely obstruct traffic, but it is impossible to say that there is no impact at all. Big ships need to be replaced by small boats, and there are many people here. a business.

The bridge was rebuilt, and the result was much better. Because of the last incident, everyone was whipped, and the bad guy was dragged out and beheaded. Bian'er killed Jiqiao, and when it was being rebuilt, everyone didn't even dare to desert, and they all worked hard, for fear that the blade might fall on their own necks.

Ji Mo said, wouldn't everything be fine if this happened earlier?You have to see blood to know the pain, it's really...

It seems that many people know that breaking the law will not have good results, but they always know the law and break the law, which is enough to be a warning.

This time, the Hongqiao bridge is stretched across the river, and the gray-white bricks seem to have another layer of halo. Pedestrians walk on it, jumping back and forth, testing the load bearing of each brick surface. After all the tests are completed, there is a burst of light. Unanimous cheers, finally finished!

"One battle every ten years, luckily."

Master Zhang looked at him with a rare smile on his face. When he was almost condemned before, he was also shocked and suffered a lot. Ji Mo didn't feel better at that time. It was the situation where they were going to die, and someone reported that it was someone who was hiding something.

As for whether the hands and feet of this person with hidden thoughts are really that big and will cause such evil results, it is something that they themselves are not easy to estimate.

Anyway, they survived.

"It should be thanks to Master Zhang. If it weren't for Master Zhang's ingenious design, it would be difficult for us to see the birth of this Hongqiao."

What Ji Mo said was very emotional. Master Zhang did not shy away from him these years, but instead brought him by his side, letting him see the key details of those skills. I really want to thank Master Zhang for giving him the opportunity to learn these technical points.

The last two points of professional knowledge points were completed during this time.

"I am a mortal, there is no ingenuity, everything is nothing more than a gift from God, and it is just left in the world by our hands." Master Zhang said this, not ordinary humility, as if he really felt so.

When everyone was discussing about the sacrifice, Master Zhang explained to Ji Mo the key points of the skills needed. This kind of explanation was like a master, but he didn't ask Ji Mo to learn from him, and he didn't ask for other things. He was extraordinarily tolerant .

Ji Mo is used to not passing on skills lightly, seeing him like this, he can't help but have doubts.

Master Zhang saw it, and told him about a bridge-building history, which can be described as a history of blood and tears. It was the experience of Master Zhang's grandfather and his master.Just like Ji Mo, who inherited Master Ji’s bridge-building skills, Master Zhang also inherited his family’s knowledge and was responsible for building things from generation to generation. Bridge building is only one of them, not all of them. His father was sentenced to death for inappropriately building a palace. , he learned construction from his grandfather since he was a child.

Because of his father's death, he resented this skill very much in the early years. He felt that he would be punished if he was not good at it.No matter how hard it is for ordinary people, there are many people who can survive. Why are they so conscientious and hardworking, and they will not die forever.

"The merits of construction are far beyond the present." Master Zhang's grandfather believed in cause and effect, and always felt that what he did was very meaningful. Once he took Master Zhang to build a bridge, and that time took more than 30 years. , when my grandfather died, the bridge was not yet completed, and Master Zhang took over later, and I just saw that the bridge was completed.

When the crowd happily celebrated the completion of the bridge, Master Zhang shed tears in front of those smiling faces, as if he understood what his grandfather wanted in his life.

"Life is short, and good fortune is long. Only they can stand up to the wind and rain, and see the tomorrow that we can't see."

That night, there seemed to be tears in the corners of Master Zhang's eyes, who fell asleep soundly with the flagon in his arms. Ji Mo seemed to see a person who was bound by layers of chains sleeping there. The inescapable shackles made him unhappy.

The chains and shackles are the skills he has learned. For ordinary people, this skill is the glory of eating. To him, it is the embodiment of a prison, which makes it difficult for him to get out of this life and raise his eyebrows.

So, if he could get rid of these through inheritance, why wouldn't he do it?

This kind of mentality may also determine that he will never be able to focus and love it like Master Ji. No one can be happy in the face of suffering. The pain is too heavy, and the people who watch it feel the same.

30 years, a bridge, the moment the bridge was built, did it also suppress him?
