512 Tight
Clay, water, coal, and other things are ready, and Xu Wen uses water and earth to make clay blanks.
When he began to do these things, the others were not idle, spreading coal into the kiln, continuing to process the cutting materials, and setting up the remaining strange traps outside the area that had just been circled......
Very busy.
The chief judges also saw that most of these craftsmen were quite average, that is, the most common kind of craftsmen in the countryside and streets, with a certain amount of craftsmanship, but they were very rough and basic, and they could only be done.
There are some slightly stronger ones in the middle, but in most cases, it is not its long board but the short board that determines the strength of a team, and the slightly stronger ones will also be pulled down together, and they will not be able to play their own level at all.
But this team is different, they seem to have prepared in advance, divided into groups according to different levels and directions they are good at, and then assign work according to the group, each person does their own thing, and everyone can give full play to their strength.
And the managers manage them in a very orderly manner, using the simplest passwords, gestures and some flags to command them, never let them have a time when they are at a loss and don't know what they are going to do.
This level of management is very unusual......
When the chief judge observed the surroundings, Xu Wen had already prepared the pottery embryo quickly.
Of course, it can be so fast, because the things he makes are very simple.
It is some pottery tubes, some large and some small, divided into several different models, each tube is thick at one end and thin at the end, and can be socketed together.
Pottery pipes are mainly used for drainage and are commonly used accessories for urban construction and high-end houses.
Different models are for different purposes, and Xu Wen has obviously planned it for a long time.
The pottery embryo was transported into the inverted flame kiln by a trolley, and Xu Wen went in to arrange it neatly one by one, and checked the coal.
When he came out of the kiln, he stood in place and was stunned for a moment.
"Is there something wrong?" Qin Lianying asked sensitively.
"The embryo is in and out of the pottery, and I feel that it is not very convenient to enter and exit the inverted flame kiln, and it needs to be improved again. Xu Wen said thoughtfully.
Aren't you worried about the firing problem and thinking about the next improvement?
What was going on in this person's head......
Now is obviously not the time to think, Xu Wen took out a small notebook from his chest, wrote down this question, put it back in the notebook and began to seal the kiln.
It takes a while for the inverted flame kiln to fire pottery, so Xu Wen took a drip and set a time to put it next to him.
"Can the time be so accurate?" asked Mingshan.
"Yes. This is also one of the advantages of the inverted flame kiln, the finished product is fired at different times, and the effect is also different, which is very flexible. Xu asked.
Mingshan nodded thoughtfully and wrote this down.
"The fineness of the pottery tube is not too high, so it takes about half an hour to fire, you need to wait a little longer to see the effect, and you can also come back when the time comes. Xu asked.
"Half an hour...... It's short. I'll just watch it here. Mingshan said.
Ming Shan said this, and the others simply stayed, and asked people to move chairs and sit aside.
Xu Wen didn't accompany him, said sorry and went to the other side, leading someone to do the final assembly of the mechanism.
The area enclosed by these institutions is about a three-zhang square, which is not very large, and it is impossible to build a complete house like Li Quan's side.
"What is this going to build?" asked Mingshan.
"I can't see it. Qin Lianying shook his head.
No matter what he wants to build, Xu Wen seems to be very confident. He kept giving orders, and the leaders of each group quickly led their subordinates to act according to the orders.
The processed stones are placed on the conveyor belt, the team leader turns on the mechanism, and someone next to him steps on it, and the conveyor belt starts to run, and the stones are transmitted forward, from one point to another. At the second point, a craftsman took over and removed the stones and put them on the spot.
The whole process is very convenient, and there is no need to move around manually, and the benefits are very obvious.
When Jing Nanhai saw this scene, she couldn't help but straighten up, leaning forward, and her expression changed significantly.
However, all this was only the beginning, and most of the work that followed Xu asked them to do was using such strange tools and machinery that they had never seen before.
Moreover, the convenience they bring is visible to the naked eye, which greatly accelerates the progress of the entire project and saves the craftsmen a lot of effort.
The men, who were visibly bandaged and appeared to be wounded, were rumored to have been whipped recently and are now serving hard labour.
The injury was supposed to affect their condition and make them slightly unable to move. But with these tools, they can easily do what three or four, or more, people could do together.
Jing Nanhai crossed his fingers, and his gaze kept sweeping everything in front of him.
He was a little excited.
Beside him, Mingshan was writing hard, recording everything he had never seen before.
Qin Lianying watched silently, his attention fell on a few points, and there seemed to be some worry between his eyebrows.
Half an hour later, there was a clicking sound from the drip, Xu Wen raised his head, walked to the side of the pottery kiln, and opened the kiln to take pottery.
The door of the kiln opened, and the heat erupted with the sparks, and the chief judges not only did not retreat, but took two more steps forward and squinted to see.
It didn't take long for the burnt clay tube to be pulled out on the trailer, red and steaming.
Xu Wen inspected a few of them wearing thick cloth gloves and put them together to form a pipe about two meters long.
Then he picked up a bottle from the side, poured some sticky liquid from it, and smeared it on the surface of the clay tube.
"This one will bubble when it comes into contact with water, and it can be used to check whether there is a leak. Xu Wen explained to the presiding judge.
At this time, water was sent to the side, Xu Wen demonstrated it, and sure enough, as soon as it came into contact with the water, it immediately blistered, and the effect was very obvious.
Xu Wen then poured water from one end of the clay pipe and let it flow.
It can be clearly seen that the water flows smoothly, and the surface of the pottery pipe is quiet, and there is no bubble at all.
This not only means that the pottery pipe is fired with good quality, and there are no cracks inside and outside, but the precision of embryo making and firing is also sufficient, and each pottery pipe is tightly buttoned up, and there is no water seepage at all.
"Look at something else. Jing Nanhai said.
Needless to say, Xu Wen was also doing it, and soon, all the pottery pipes were connected according to the model - each one was very well connected.
The water gurgled through the clay pipe, except that the water was still water. The surface of all the clay tubes is very smooth, and if it weren't for the luster of the test reagent, it would make people wonder if they had forgotten it.
Experiments have proved that the quality of the whole kiln pottery is quite average, and all of them are qualified!
The advantages of this inverted flame kiln are indeed clear at a glance.
And this is just one of the quite inconspicuous advantages of Xu Wen's current display of strengths.
"The stuff was good and well prepared. Qin Lianying opened his mouth and said slowly, "But in the end, it still depends on the effect." ”
He turned his head and looked at Xu Wen with a scrutinizing gaze, "The rest is just a small path." ”
Xu Wen looked back, his expression seemed to be a little disapproving, but in the end he didn't say anything, just looked at the construction site that was surrounded by various organs and was being built in full swing.
