Liu Tong's face darkened, and Chen Xi realized at this moment that it was indeed his negligence. The Weishui Bridge was very different from other bridges. After all, it existed as a transportation hub in this era.
In addition, the climate of this era was also very different from that of later generations. The simplest point is that the flow of the Wei River in later generations was not large, but in this era the Wei River began to surge every April and May, and floods regularly broke out in July and August.
Even if the people who built the bridge are extremely skilled, the bridge span structure is reasonable, and the bridge span is relatively large, it would be mysterious if the flood comes and you don't look at it. After all, it is a 900-meter-long bridge, which is considered the highest in the bridge building industry at that time.
The standard is good, but if it is washed away by floods, you will really lose your head.
Therefore, until the Tang Dynasty, bridge workers and professional bridge repair craftsmen were stationed at the Three Weishui Bridges.
These people are supported by the state, and their main job is to prevent the bridges from leaving hidden dangers after the flood, which will lead to the collapse of the country's facade. Therefore, until the Weishui Bridge was destroyed by war in the late Tang Dynasty, the state had been maintaining these three bridges.
Professional bridge builders.
This is also an important reason why the bridge has been able to sustain for thousands of years without collapsing. In the Han Dynasty, these people were named under the name of the Shaofu Shaojian. However, looking at the current situation, it seems that the Shaofu Shaojian lost the people. This is a big deal!
These three bridges also belong to the national dignity, so 120 bridge workers and 24 professional bridge craftsmen are arranged for maintenance. In fact, they are reserved at double the scale.
There was a flood almost yesterday. The flood stopped in the morning and in the afternoon we could stand on the bridge and watch fishing on the Wei River.
In my impression, this was the same standard until the Tang Dynasty, but now the Shaofu Shaojian said that there are less than a hundred people left, which means that at least more than two hundred people have left. Even if there are parallel imports over two hundred, at least half of them can be built.
of the Weishui Bridge.
According to an old foreman leading three or five new people, if he teaches them well, more than a hundred people can look at five sites and build this kind of thing in five places at the same time. But now you say they have run away?
At this moment, the young eunuch of the young master clearly felt the knife in his back that could pierce him. He knew that this wave of his own was about to end. The young eunuch of the young master tried his best to explain that the situation in the country was too bad in the past few years and he could not afford to support idle people.
What……
Then Cao Cao asked, with the money I allocated to you last year, and the money allocated to you by Chen Xi, who was part-time serving as the Shaofu and DaSinong, you didn't call back the people? Not to mention that they were all dead.
"Pull it down and let Tingwei check it." Liu Tong waved his hand and signaled the guards to drag the young eunuch out. The young eunuch also had a gray face and did not dare to resist. After all, there was really nothing to explain about this matter.
The situation in the past few years was not good, and everyone was bad. It is understandable to disband, but you can leave me a personnel record at least. If it doesn't work, you will give me the money that Cao Cao and Chen Xi have paid you in the past two years.
Bring it back again.
Now when we need to recruit people, you tell me that there is no one available. If you don't step down, who will step down! Therefore, even if there are many people who are familiar with the Shaofu Shaojian, no one will step forward at this time.
The young eunuch of the young mansion has been dragged down, but what to do next? A group of people in the court, you look at me, I look at you, what should I do? This kind of professional is not something you can do just by saying.
Yes, even if it needs to be cultivated, it will take several years.
Sun Qian was the most embarrassed at this moment. He really didn't know that such a group of people existed. Building the bridge had always been his own business.
"Let me ask you something." Chen Xi felt a little embarrassed when he saw this scene, so he sent a message to Jia Xu and asked, "When the craftsmen were prostituted from Chang'an, was there anyone from the Shaofu who prostituted them?"
"..." Jia Xu was stunned, "You mean that the master craftsmen who are now following Gongyou to build the bridge are probably the bridge workers who used to work on the Third Weishui Bridge?"
"Because we brought many craftsmen from Chang'an, didn't we?" Chen Xi said with a smile.
"I think it's very possible." Jia Xu glanced at Chen Xi speechlessly, "At least Ma Deheng was indeed under the Shaofu Shaojian."
"Ma Deheng brought a dozen master craftsmen here..." Chen Xi said with a twitching corner of his mouth, and then sent a message to Cao Cao, "Sikong, can I ask a question?"
"What's the matter?" Cao Cao replied casually. He was also upset now. So many top bridge workers were gone, how to work next.
"Is Ma Deheng a subordinate of Sikong?" Chen Xi asked tentatively.
"Who is that?" Cao Cao asked.
"..." Chen Xi laughed dryly, "You are joking, you are joking."
Chen Xi silently broke into a cold sweat and calmed down. There was no doubt that he had poached those people. He should go back and bail out the young supervisor. He could not let others take the blame.
"Speaking of which, there are actually so many great craftsmen among the bridge builders of the Weishui Bridge." Chen Xi said to Jia Xu with a dry smile.
"The imperial chefs of the Han family are all great chefs. Aren't you talking nonsense? To work in that place, you don't have to rely on nepotism. If you don't have this level, how can you eat." Jia Xu said speechlessly.
"Go back and help me bail out the young eunuch of the young mansion." Chen Xi held his forehead and had nothing to say. It was indeed an empire. Maybe in the Han Empire at its peak, the generals and eunuchs were all great craftsmen.
"No problem. Sure enough, you don't pay much attention to what you do, right?" Jia Xu nodded, and it was not difficult for him to keep a young prisoner in a young mansion.
"It's my fault to ask him to come to me later, and I'll find him a job." Chen Xi said helplessly. Although the young eunuch of the Shaofu was seeking death, it would not have been the case without Chen Xi.
"Turn those people back and let them build the bridge." Jia Xu said very understandingly, but still gave the advice out of habit.
"Wake up, those people are working on big ships with Lu Jicai now, do you think they will come back? Or Lu Jicai is replaying people?" Chen Xiwu rolled his eyes and said through the message, "Big ships are also very important, okay, this thing Determines the balance of our maritime power."
"Then just pretend it doesn't happen and don't mention it. Let's see if the court can do anything about it. After all, it's not good for you to say you're taking people away from the Shaofu." Jia Xu warned, knowing that Luo There is probably no hope for Jicai's side when entering the mainland, not to mention that the group of master craftsmen probably don't want to build a bridge at the moment.
Chen Xi nodded, knowing that it would be good for everyone if the matter was revealed like this, so he focused his attention on the court again.
"Ahem, leave this matter to me. I still have some memory of the roster from that year. I should be able to find it if I search for it." Zhao Qi was also helpless. What is this, and why should he let the old man live?
Everyone else nodded, and that was all they could do. But if you think about it carefully, the Weishui Bridge that my group of people have seen all day long is actually very strange. Logically speaking, the width of this bridge can pass through the narrower places on both sides of the Yellow River. .
"I think we should also compile these skills. If you hadn't said it today, I would have ignored the existence of the Three Weishui Bridges." Chen Xi said with an expression of liver pain, although it was his own Pot, but Chen Xi still sincerely expressed that all seniors, including Huangfu Song who is not here, please keep your common sense!
To be honest, if I had thought about the Three Weishui Bridge and borrowed some people from here because of Liu Bei's reputation, considering the poverty situation of the Shaofu at that time, I would definitely have borrowed people from here. Then when Sun Qian built the Yellow River Bridge, it would not have been so difficult that he was the first. It takes a lot of time and effort to design.
Chen Xi has basically remembered where the two hundred people are now. They are all in the Lu family shipyard now. Who knows how these people learned to build ships. Anyway, after coming here, they started to build mechanical transmissions and steam engines, and then went to build large ships. , on the contrary, Sun Qian had basically no subordinates.
But it’s not a loss. After that training, Sun Qian’s skills, as well as the skills of many master craftsmen who worked together to build it, have made great progress. This time, we will collect the construction materials of the Weishui Bridge and learn from each other’s strengths. There should be more Considerable progress.
Okay, the above is just self-comfort. Chen Xi just wants to say something to you, can you be more reliable? Come out with whatever you have, everyone collects their own things, at least come to a family that makes catalogs, no Do you know that my road is difficult? Can you give me less trouble?
In fact, Chen Xi thought wrong. There used to be a family that made catalogues. That family was called the Sima family, but it was not the same family as the current Sima family. It was a hereditary historian family. Wasn't it cut off by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? No one will make directories again.
After all, there are people who record history, but it is a little different from the way it was passed down from generation to generation in the past, and it is really not as professional as it was back then, let alone keeping a directory of major families. If the Sima family is here, everyone will still It is acceptable, but if the Sima family falls and future generations want to re-enter it, it will really not be that easy.
When the Sima family was here, those families that had transferred from the nobility could not stop the Sima family from continuing to do so due to inertia. But after the Sima family fell, why should the new historian who took over want the trump cards of each major family?
"It's not impossible. The problem is that most people like to keep this kind of thing on their own." Xun Yu's answer largely represented the psychology of others.
"Would it be okay to write a book for them? I can't believe that no one would be willing to leave him a position as the Patriarch under Lu Ban. Anyway, all walks of life can leave a booklet as a compilation." Chen Xi said with a dark face. Everyone smiled bitterly, but did not directly object.
Compared with the value of killing Kushan, these bad things should be tolerated as long as they are tolerated. When Kushan is killed, we can go back and argue. The day that the place is no longer in our hands, we will not be able to rest assured.
With this mentality, it was completely impossible to compile the three religions and nine streams, but this time it was passed so easily. The Han Dynasty officials really didn't want to waste time on this. Hurry up and build the road. Finish it. The army will go over and kill Kuishang!
