It is not easy to learn a new thing, it requires talent and understanding.
Qin Huaidao knew he was in a hurry, so he had an idea when he thought of the assembly line, and said: "You will divide the work in a while, and each person will be responsible for one process. This will be simpler and get started quickly. Continue to watch me make another thing."
Not long after, another rotary drum was made. This time, the top and bottom were the same size. The middle was completely opened. The diameter was much larger than the previous one. Instead of a cross-shaped clay, it was made of a whole strip, which was also thinner, like a rectangle.
The paper is attached to the rotating drum, shaped by hand, and the joint is fixed into one body, and then rotated, and then shaped with long wooden strips to make the mud blank more round, and then the top is cut neatly.
After it was done, Qin Huaidao took the roller and found a place to put it down. He loosened the wooden board of the cylinder and removed it. A cylinder appeared in front of everyone. It was much faster than making it by hand, and it was also more beautiful.
Not long after, Qin Huaidao made a circle with bamboo slices slightly larger than the cylinder, with a handle on each side for easy handling. Four thin wires were drawn inside the circle, divided into four equal parts, and cut down from the top of the cylinder, just inside the cylinder.
There were small traces left at the joints of four wooden boards. The string was cut down along the traces to cut the cylinder into four pieces of just the right size. Qin Huaidao explained: "When cutting, you must have steady hands, be fast, and follow the direction."
Trace down, avoid switching, each block will be a tile in the future, four blocks at a time.”
Everyone suddenly realized that this was actually making tiles, and they were four pieces at a time. Everyone made the mud cylinder into two halves, not four petals.
"This is much faster, and the whole is flat and smooth, and the thickness is the same. The tiles are just bigger and flatter, but they can better protect against rain." Someone praised.
"What's more important is that it's round enough. It's not as smooth as what everyone did before, and the appearance is much better."
"It's also faster and easier to do."
"Young Master, it's a good idea to shape the clay first and then use it to make it. It's not like everyone applying a large piece of clay and slowly shaping it, which is much slower."
"I think the better way is to rotate. When the wooden strips are pushed up, they become round. The top and bottom are consistent, neat, simple, and easy. Children and the elderly can do it."
Everyone was chatting away, their eyes were shining, and they saw the miracle.
Qin Huaidao didn't stop him. Communicating and summarizing is more conducive to mastering and improving. As long as he is correct, when everyone has said it almost, he will give an order and everyone will take action.
There are many processes, but there are also many people. Each person is responsible for one of them, so it is easy to master. Qin Huaidao let everyone choose which link to do, and guided everyone one by one to try it.
Not long after, Qin Huaidao saw Mr. Huang coming, so he pulled him and said: "Old Huang, ask all those making clay pots in the village to stop, and continue to assemble the finished ones into stoves, and distribute them to the people in the village for their own use, with one or two more for each household.
It doesn’t matter.”
"Thank you, Master Xie, who are they?" Huang Lao asked curiously.
"A brand new production tool will be distributed to everyone after it is made. Teach everyone how to use it. It can increase production. It can be two or three times faster than before." Qin Huaidao explained, motioning to Mr. Huang to come over and take a look at the shape of the vessel he had just made.
.
When Mr. Huang heard that it was two or three times faster, he became uneasy. Qinjiazhuang's wages were based on piecework, not time. Doesn't this two or three times faster mean that the income would be two or three times more? This is a huge kindness, and his heart is full of it.
I was so moved that my eyes lit up when I saw the shape of the vessel, and I said excitedly: "The appearance is much better, and this is a stove, right? It is actually formed in one piece, which is stronger and better looking. Doesn't it mean that there is no need to assemble it?"
Qin Huaidao nodded, and his eyes fell on the shape of the stove. It was about ten centimeters thick, and the insulation should be no problem, but it was a little troublesome to hold. Suddenly something occurred to him, so he picked up the bamboo branch that was drilled just now, and punched a hole in one side to form a symmetry.
, and then shouted to the two people who were responsible for making the clay: "You two, come here."
"What are your orders, young master?" The two men came up.
"See, there are two holes in it. They need to be symmetrical. Then use wire to make a handle to hold it for easy moving." Qin Huaidao explained. Seeing that the two of them didn't understand much, they just started.
New things are a bit difficult for people who have never been to school. No matter how many times you talk about it, it is better to do it again.
Qin Huaidao carved two marks on the upper end of the rotating drum to form a symmetry. In the future, drilling holes would be drilled from the bottom of the marks. Then he found a blacksmith and made a handle with iron wire. The handle should not be too soft and should be harder.
As for deformation, Qin Huaidao taught him how to simply carburize it and make it into pig iron.
Pig iron is hard and will not fall off when stuck in the hole.
Finally, Qin Huaidao made a small cylinder out of wood, with a hole in the middle, and put it into an iron wire for easy grasping and heat insulation, and gave it to a carpenter to do the work.
As for the iron ring support piece on the stove, Uncle Ma is making it at home, so it's not a big problem.
Qin Huaidao thought about it carefully and made sure that there was nothing missing. After observing for a while and making sure that everyone could do their own processes, he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at how late it was and warned: "Everyone, you should go all out to make these things during this period. First,
Make five hundred sets and complete them as soon as possible. When finished, each person will be paid two taels of silver."
"Young Master has taught us his skills as a great kindness, and it's free of charge."
"Yes, we don't need to pay for it. This technology is worth thousands of dollars, so how can we still need to pay for it?"
"That's right, if you work as an apprentice outside for three years without earning a penny, you may not be able to learn the real skills. The young master is generous, pours all his money into teaching, and takes the trouble to guide. We can't lose our conscience, and we will never ask for money."
"Whoever takes the money will not die well."
"Yes, I don't have to die well, I don't have to disgrace Qinjiazhuang."
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, and they were a little excited, as if giving money was a kind of humiliation.
Qin Huaidao couldn't react for a while. Isn't it natural to pay for work?
At this time, Mr. Huang also said: "The young master taught you the craftsmanship. The craftsmanship is a priceless treasure. It can be passed down to the family in the future. You must not take the money. I have a bad conscience. Please take back what you just said."
"Yes, take it back, otherwise we won't do it."
"Yes, it's just a few days to live. We can't lose our conscience."
"Stop, stop -"
Qin Huaidao shouted quickly, feeling that he would be a sinner if he continued to speak. This man's heart is simple.
"Everyone, stop for a moment." Huang Lao shouted quickly. After everyone was quiet, he looked at Qin Huaidao and asked sheepishly: "Young Master, I definitely can't ask for the money, but can you pass on the skills you have learned to your family?
The old man promises that they will not pass it on to outsiders, and his daughter will not pass it on to avoid leakage."
"Yes, pass it on from male to female."
Everyone agreed, their eyes eager and full of desire.
At this moment, Qin Huaidao realized that he had underestimated the status of technology in this era, and he also understood everyone's emphasis on technology. He thought about it and said: "In this way, Qinjiazhuang will set up a craftsman's workshop, with you as the main one, and some more.
Mr. Huang is responsible for the management of this craftsman's workshop, and will teach you some techniques in the future. You can pass them on to your family members to avoid breaking up the inheritance, but they must not be passed on to others, otherwise the interests of Qin Family Village will be lost."
"Thank you, young master!" Everyone was overjoyed.
Huang Lao also said excitedly: "With technology, Qinjiazhuang is completely hopeful. Young master, don't worry, anyone who dares to leak it will be the enemy of everyone in Qinjiazhuang and a traitor. We are all warriors, and we must treat the enemy
, there is only one word for traitors, kill!"
"Yes, kill all the enemies, recover the technology, and never leak it." Everyone expressed their stance.
Qin Huaidao warned: "You decide what to do, Mr. Huang, build a workshop after the warehouse is built, and build it near here. It is remote and quiet. No outsiders come, so there is no need to worry about peeping. In addition, people who are not from the craftsman's workshop will
No one is allowed to go near the craftsman's workshop, and a team of security guards will be arranged to guard it."
"I remember it, old man." Huang Lao patted his chest and expressed his position: "I guarantee that everything will be foolproof. Back in the military camp, the craftsmanship camp was also under strict management. We all know the rules and regulations."
"That's good!" Qin Huaidao saw that it was getting late and was about to leave. When he saw Luo Zhang running in in a hurry, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something happened to the transport team?
"Uncle, I finally found you." Luo Zhang rushed through the door and shouted.
"Is something wrong?"
Luo Zhang looked at everyone: "Let's go out and talk."
