In addition, Huang Dahe will always randomly check the quality of the goods, after this big wave of sand, the people who can stand here now are afraid that they are all capable people.

And in this group of people, the only one that makes Huang Dahe feel uneasy...... may be the pair of Gu Zheng.

Because he was kind-hearted for a while, he promised to come down to accept the young man who handed over his family's products, and he didn't know what kind of finished products he could bring.

I still have to focus on this place.

Thinking like this, Huang Dahe's eyes were not plucked out of Gu Zheng's body.

The boy at the end of the line, however, was ignorant, staring very seriously at the huge melting pot in the workshop as if he was curious about everything...... I'm salivating.

Chen Sanbao in his arms was not to be outdone, the baby who had understood what good equipment represented since he was a child, had been muttering in Gu Zheng's ear since he entered the door.

"Oh, I'm afraid this is what Daddy said about an ultra-high temperature furnace that can turn iron into water, right?"

"Oops, there are so many notches on the mold table over there. Brother, if only this were our family. ”

Gu Zheng thought so, and patted Chen Sanbao's head in his arms very approvingly, not an ordinary big-hearted promise to give an irresponsible promise.

"Sanbao, what is this, haven't you seen the equipment in the General Administration of the Chang'an Imperial Court. As your father once described to me, the furnace there is so big and so wide, and when my brother and I are developed, we will make an exact same one in our shop. ”

"When the time comes, let alone ten shovels, at least twenty or thirty can be beaten when the pot comes out. ”

After saying this, the two brothers hugged their heads and started to laugh.

Because they had already walked to the front of the forging platform, Huang Dahe, who happened to listen to the conversation between the two brothers, covered his face in his heart.

This is really the fearlessness of the ignorant, these two guys really dare to brag.

You'd better hurry up and take out the ten sets of iron ingots, and pass the test first.

But the business-like Huang Dahe was not obvious on his face, as if he had never known Gu Zheng before, with his bronze square face, he said mechanically: "Chen Ji blacksmith shop, ten groups of iron ingots." Symbol o×. ”

"You can take out the ingots you have turned in. ”

After speaking, Huang Dahe pointed to the row of grooves on the casting table in front of him.

Gu Zheng glanced down, and immediately understood, after he put Chen Sanbao on the ground and took out the iron ingots from the package behind the quilt, he put these ten groups of ingots in turn in these grooves of the same system.

'Click'

The iron ingots were placed in it, and they were all the same size, and the length, width and height were exactly the same.

Just looking at its appearance, the black and swarthy one is really good iron, and the Huang Dahe on the opposite side fell down after just entering the eye.

Then his singing voice was a little higher.

"Chen Ji blacksmith shop, the appearance of the ingot group is all in line, the next step is to weigh. Come, throw the ingots one by one on this weight, and weigh them. ”

"Hey!"

Gu Zhengying was so happy that he put the iron ingot into this very old measuring instrument with a wooden horizontal and copper ring right.

The copper ring on the side is equivalent to the scale stone that falls on one side of the current scale rod, and it has already fixed two copper rings, one large and one small, on one side according to a unified standard.

There was a hemp rope attached to the balance point in the middle, and when Gu Zheng put his iron ingot on the plate of the vacant side, the little official in charge of measuring the rope was lifted like this, and the measurement task on both sides was officially started.

Every time Gu Zheng put on a set of iron ingots, the thing that looked like a crude measuring instrument shook twice in the little official's hand, and it quickly became balanced.

In this way, Huang Dahe, who was staring at the side by mistake, was even more satisfied.

The number of ten sets of ingots is not much, and the little man with quick hands and feet can measure it in just a moment.

Then Huang Dahe's singing voice roared out immediately afterward.

"Chen Kee blacksmith shop, ten sets of ingots, full baht and two, meet the standard. ”

As the words fell, the knife and pen clerk in charge of registration on the side drew a scale on the bamboo slip cylinder of Chen Kee's blacksmith shop.

After the weighing work is completed, it is the bulk of the test, and it is also the most important step, the quality inspection.

Among these ten sets of ingots, two groups were randomly selected and collided with the carving knives made by the craftsmen in the workshops of the government offices.

If there are no obvious defects such as fragmentation and gaps, and there are no visible external injuries and depressions on the iron ingot group, it can be regarded as a real pass.

For this part of the test, that's what everyone is staring at.

Even if it is a qualified iron ingot, the veteran craftsman can judge the quality of this group of iron from the traces left in the ingot group through this collision.

Whether it is fine or ordinary, the feel and the eyes it will not deceive.

'Oooooo

The craftsman in charge of the collision really showed no mercy under his hands.

But after the collision was completed, the people who circled around found that the full ingot handed over by Gu Zheng did not even leave an obvious scratch on it.

I wiped my hand on the slightly whitish traces, and after the meager sweat on my hands moistened that position, there was no trace of half of the collision.

"Good iron!"

The craftsmen working beside him praised it from the bottom of their hearts.

And Huang Dahe, who had the courage to take over Gu Zheng's work, stood up his chest with honor and disgrace.

He patted Gu Zheng's shoulder very proudly and praised sincerely: "Young man, it's amazing!"

"It's a little more refined than your master's craftsmanship back then. ”

"Since that's the case, Chen Ji blacksmith shop is full of ingots, inspection, pass!!"

After this notice fell, the knife and pen clerk on the side did not even raise his head and carved another knife on Chen Ji's bamboo slips, and the handwriting, the roll, the attached rope, and tied it into a roll, and put it in a stack of records that passed the inspection, and no longer paid attention to it.

And Huang Dahe here, naturally, will not let go of such a talent, as soon as he handed over his hand to the little official who was in charge of issuing the sign on the side, he took over the signature of this exemption from servitude, and then stuffed it into Gu Zheng's hand.

"Take it, next month or this time, remember ten groups, let's decide. ”

"There is a chance!"

Huang Dahe grinned, and was about to pat the virtuous nephew on the shoulder and ask him to hurry home and talk again, but the kid opposite him said something that surprised him again.

"That, Uncle Huang, I heard that if we hand over iron ingots that exceed the basic share here, we will give the rest of the money?"

Huang Dahe, who heard this, was stunned, but when he reacted, he was not a little surprised, and he was a little worried about the younger generations.

"Yes, there is such a saying, the imperial court provides auxiliary materials, and the private workshop can be responsible for processing. ”

"A set of ingots here is extra than ten dollars for the manual fee. ”

"But nephew, it's not worth it. Even if it is your uncle and I who are in charge of this expropriation, I have to remind you of a superfluous sentence. ”

"You see that you pick up a little guy on weekdays, don't say too much, you always have an income of thirty or fifty a day. ”

"But if you take over my group of ingots here, not to mention the side, you will spend seven or eight days on the standard amount of ten groups. ”

"This month, excluding the full ingots that must be handed in, even if you take my work here without sleep, then your net income in a month is only more than two hundred dollars. ”

"You have all this money, just to supply you with charcoal, the run-in of tools, I'm afraid it's barely enough, then you can't do this thankless work, and damage your own business. ”

This Huang Dahe still has a little conscience in the end.

You must know that the government-run workshops set up in a county, and the supervisors in charge of the construction there, all the merits are linked to the amount of materials they pay to the imperial court every month.

If the ruthless supervisor encounters a master like Gu Zheng, he can't wait to fool the other party into making more points.

But Huang Dahe has seen Gu Zheng's craftsmanship and experienced the friendship of his master's funeral, so he can't do such a lack of morality.
