Qin Huaidao looked at the distance in the distance and pondered without saying a word. He let the cold wind blow over his face and blew up his robe. His cold eyes were bright and sharp, and he remained silent for a long time.
The two women accompanied him quietly, enjoying this rare world of three people.
After a while, Qin Huaidao said: "The time is not mature enough. It is not good for us to force the Holy Emperor to agree. Although we are not afraid, there is no need to make trouble over this matter. It is not a big deal anyway. I will coordinate it first. If it doesn't work, it will be a day later."
, coming together is equivalent to doing it together."
"This method is feasible." Li Xueyan agreed.
He'er also agreed: "It's better to be separated. It shows that we take it seriously. Who doesn't want to be the only one that day? Having multiple people seems a bit childish and doesn't take us seriously enough."
"Really?" Qin Huaidao was a little surprised, but he quickly realized that this was the Tang Dynasty, which valued reputation and honors. It was not like the mass weddings of later generations for the sake of excitement. If they were put together together, they might attract jokes, so he stopped insisting and warned
Said: "He'er, you are considered an elder, Luo Zhang's marriage will be left to you."
"No problem, I promise nothing will happen." Seeing Qin Huaidao trusting her so much, He'er felt sweet in her heart. Seeing that Li Xueyan was not dissatisfied, she thought of something and said with a bitter smile: "Just like this, the seniority is a little messed up."
At this time, someone came over from outside the courtyard gate: "Young Master, Wang Xuance is here."
The inner courtyard is a forbidden area. No one dares to break in. They can only announce it at the door.
"Let him wait in the living room." Qin Huaidao replied, and after exchanging a few words with the two women, he hurriedly left and soon came to the living room.
"King of Han!" Wang Xuance stood up and bowed.
"Sit down and chat." Qin Huaidao made an invitation and immediately sat down at the main seat.
Wang Xuance sat down again and spent some time together. He already knew Qin Huaidao's temper and said bluntly: "King Han, when I came here, I saw a man who called himself Masanguan bringing a batch of silver. He has arranged for people to wait in the side room. I came to ask
Ask the King of Han what to do next about the claim?"
"Masanguan is the general manager of the Department Store. The money is compensation. I will arrange for someone to take it over in a while. This matter is over. The merchants who assisted in this matter will focus on taking care of their business in the future. Those refugees should be evacuated."
"There are a lot of refugees, how to resettle them? Or should we give each person some money and send them home?" Wang Xuance asked.
"Two pieces of silver per person, no matter how big or small, is enough for everyone to go back and survive this winter. The young and agile ones can be hired to run errands. The market will be reopened, and the department store will be ours and will be reopened in the future, so that the people of Chang'an will not be left without anything.
If you want to eat, the price on both sides is the same."
When Wang Xuance heard that the King of Han Dynasty had won the battle in the Department Store Pavilion, he became excited. However, he was too smart to ask for details and agreed: "Great. New Year's Day is coming soon. The people in Chang'an City are worried about not being able to buy anything, and they are complaining.
In this way, the problem is easily solved, and the refugees are extremely benevolent in this arrangement. Each person has two guans, which is enough for everyone to survive. However, I am afraid that there will not be enough food and vegetables."
"Let those merchants who are close to us go shopping in other places. We don't have enough money to give them. If we give them 20% of the profit, many people should be willing to do it. In this way, they won't have to worry about food and vegetables. But remember, no matter purchasing or selling,
You can only use the voucher." Qin Huaidao solemnly warned.
Having done so much, in addition to attacking opponents, the more important thing is to popularize credentials.
Financial war is king.
Wang Xuance also understood the reason and agreed: "Don't worry, King Han, I guarantee that everything will be perfect. However, there is an extra department store that needs to be run, and there are not enough manpower. Can you send some to help?"
"Recruit yourself, find some people you trust, and form your own team. From now on, all business and trade will be handled by you. Recruit ten people first, and then gradually increase. As for the salary, in principle, it should not be three times higher than the other party's existing salary.
times, those with outstanding abilities can be appropriately improved.”
When Wang Xuance heard that he could form his own team and be responsible for business in the future, this was a lucrative position and would not be accepted by anyone who was not absolutely trustworthy. This was a kind of recognition and a great trust. He was overjoyed and said solemnly: "Thank you for your trust, King Han.
I know a lot of officials in the court who are unsuccessful because they are not from a good background, there is no one in the court, and they are not good at wielding power and specializing in business. However, they are not lacking in talent, but they only lack opportunities, so they will definitely be willing to come here."
"As long as you are trustworthy and think you can use it, then you can win over me, but do it in a hidden way so as not to cause a big fuss and make it difficult for the court to explain to you." Qin Huaidao agreed wholeheartedly.
After chatting for a while, Wang Xuance hurriedly left the mansion and returned to the courtyard. He saw that the hall was filled with various gifts and his wife and children were packing them away. He quickly asked: "What's going on?"
"Mr. Lang is back. This is brought by Mrs. He'er. It is said to be a New Year's gift. Everyone around the King of Han has it. By the way, he also sent this month's salary, which is a thousand guan, and a thousand guan happiness.
The money is said to be a New Year's Day red envelope. I know the New Year's Day. What does this red envelope mean? I heard from Mrs. He'er that it was requested by the King of Han."
Wang Xuance didn't understand what red envelopes were, and was filled with shock. He hadn't said much about his salary before, and he didn't feel embarrassed to ask. He thought that having more than a dozen red envelopes was very impressive. There were only so many for third-rank officials in the imperial court, so he didn't expect to give them to him.
If you get a thousand guan, you still have a thousand guan of silver.
Is this too much?
The next moment, a strong sense of gratitude surged into my heart. I looked toward the top of the mountain and murmured to myself: "You treat me as a countryman, and I will repay you as a countryman. I will never let you down!"
The voice was firm, as if he was making an oath.
"The King of Han's benevolence and righteousness cannot be compromised." Mrs. Wang Xuance also said solemnly.
"My wife is slowly packing up, and I am going out for my husband. The King of Han has just entrusted me with an important task, asking me to recruit talents, form a team, and be responsible for business in the future. The King of Han is so benevolent and righteous, and my husband cannot slack off or betray his trust. He must get things done today."
, I can’t match you anymore.”
"Go, business is important, be careful on the road, my mother and I are safe here, don't worry."
Wang Xuance smiled gratefully, hugged his child, turned and left, with firm and steady steps, and soon disappeared into the vast snow.
Qin Huaidao didn't know Wang Xuance's gratitude. After receiving the compensation and house deeds from the department store, Qin Huaidao and his family had hot pot in the backyard. It was freezing cold but the hot pot was hot.
During the meal, they explained the matter of the Department Store Pavilion in detail. The two women did not expect that it was really King Wei behind them, and they did not expect that King Wei actually negotiated peace and gave up. Li Xueyan couldn't help but remind him: "Mr. Lang, King Wei seems to be easy-going, but the city government
He is extremely profound, has a proud personality, and will retaliate for his anger. If he seeks peace now, will he be holding back big trouble later?"
He'er's wonderful eyes flashed: "Yes, the reason for seeking peace should be to stabilize us and provide cover for other things."
Qin Huaidao smiled and said: "I've thought about this too, but it doesn't matter. Why don't you use the money if you have it? That's one million dollars, which just solves a problem. You can fight back when he gets the chance. Absolute strength
In front of us, all conspiracy methods are a joke, not to mention that he may not be targeting us."
"Something else? King Jin?" Li Xueyan blurted out, and immediately thought of the dispute over the country's foundation, but did not dare to say it out loud. This guess was too bold and shocking.
Qin Huaidao smiled but said nothing and nodded slightly in acquiescence.
He'er wasn't politically sensitive enough and didn't think too deeply, but he keenly grasped another key point and asked: "Young Master, what's the problem? Do you need money? I'll spare some for you."
"One million is enough, Xue Yan, Fei Ge sent a message to Luo Ying and two battalions of people to come over immediately and take the money away." Qin Huaidao said and looked at Li Xue Yan. There were a large number of weapons, grenades, and land mines in Chashan.
Zhong Jia, etc., last time they took away a sum of money, but it was far from enough, but this matter is too sensitive and no one can talk about it.
Li Xueyan was smart enough not to ask any more questions and agreed wholeheartedly.
After the meal, Qin Huaidao plunged into the special workshop and built the key component of the grenade, which is also the most difficult and important component - seamless steel pipe.
The grenade tube is indispensable for seamless steel pipes, and those with seams cannot be used. However, the craftsmanship of this era lacked machines, and no one knew how to make seamless steel pipes. Qin Huaidao could only research and make it by hand.
Fortunately, the general process is known. It is nothing more than heating the round steel pipe blank first, then perforating, rolling the pipe, heating, sizing, heat treatment, straightening, inspection and repair. But it is easier said than done.
There is a way to heat the steel pipe billet and it will be burned. There is no way to solve the perforation. You need a piece of steel of suitable size, sufficient hardness and toughness, and one end is sharpened, similar to a drill bit. The billet becomes soft after heating. As long as the force is strong enough,
The drill bit can perforate the steel billet.
However, perforation will cause the hot steel billet to deform, so it is necessary to tie the pipe, that is, the two rollers are fixed, so that the hot steel billet can pass through the middle of the rollers, and the rollers will also rotate to reduce friction. Since the rollers are fixed, the passing hot steel billet will not appear.
Inconsistency in size, deformation, etc.
After piercing and tying the pipe, a preliminary seamless steel pipe is formed, and then heated again. More directional wheels are needed to block the steel pipe and allow the steel pipe to pass through the middle, which can fix the radial direction of the steel pipe, also called sizing.
After sizing, there is straightening. The principle is similar. It also needs heat treatment to soften the steel pipe slightly. Then it passes through rows of fixed rollers to ensure that the front and rear are straight. Then the head and tail are cut off and the details are checked to see if there is centrifugation or deformation.
, cracking and other phenomena, just pick out the available ones for flaw detection and repair.
Therefore, the most difficult parts of the entire process are the rollers, fixed wheels, etc.
Everything can only be made by hand and through trial and error.
Fortunately, Qin Huaidao has extremely good hands-on skills, so he calmed down and polished slowly.
