Chapter 31 The Shipbuilding Industry

Yang Yingqi said so many things just now, what he wanted was Ah Guta's promise, and he said to Ah Gu at the moment: "Our Dajin is rich in all kinds of wood, but the good wood is in the mountains. There were few people in the Han Department, so they could only draw out 500 man-made skewers, and Ying Qi hoped that the lord of the country would send another person into the mountains to cut wood for shipbuilding. ”

Ah Gu said: "What a big deal! Let the Minister of State arrange it. ”

After talking about shipbuilding, Aguta looked at the map again. The Jurchens did not have such a map at the time, and the roads of the mountains and rivers were imprinted in his mind for decades, and he relied on this invisible map to plan his wars. Although he was not literate, he was a man of true vision, and he was very happy to see this tangible map, which could corroborate what he knew in his heart.

Yang Yingqi pointed while explaining what a certain point and a certain circle on the diagram meant. Aguta also corrected some mistakes on the map with what he knew. At the end, he put his palm down, pressed it on the position of Da Liao Tokyo and said, "I will take this place sooner or later." If I get here, then my Dajin has the solidity of mountains and rivers and the danger of rivers, and I can compete with the Liao people, so that Yelu Yanxi will no longer dare to underestimate me! ”

Sagai and the others said together: "The emperor is eloquent and strategic, and he will do what he wants." ”

The shipyard was coarsely built into a scale within half a month, and a month later, the timber from the deep mountains continued to arrive, and Ouyang Long's uncle and nephew's eyes were red when they saw it! Such a big, so good, so much wood, is actually only used to build river boats! He ran to see Yang Yingqi, hoping that General Xiao Yang would let him supervise the construction of the sea ship.

Yang Yingqi said: "I know you have the ability to build sea ships. But of the 500 men I have handed over to you, few know how to carpenter and build ships. Therefore, most of the ships could not be built for a while. You'd better build a bunch of boats first. Think of it as military training. Besides, this place is deep inland, and you can't enter the sea even if you build a sea ship. ”

Ouyang Long was a little disappointed, but he also knew that Yang Yingqi was right. Yang Yingqi saw him like this, and his understanding of this person was deeper. I thought to myself, "Everyone has their favorites. This man is not only good at seafaring and shipbuilding, but also very obsessed! Although he has the worldly ** of being an official, what can give him a sense of accomplishment the most is that he is afraid that he can still build a good ship. With a little guidance, he may not be able to become an important partner of our department. ”

Yang Yingqi was right, most of the 500 people had no experience in shipbuilding, and they couldn't even do simple carpentry. Looking at the hundreds of "clumsy" guys, the ambitious Ouyang Long's expectations for shipbuilding suddenly fell to the bottom again -- he even doubted that this group of people could build a batch of river boats.

"These people are not shipbuilding materials at all!" He ran to Yang Yingqi again, but this time he came to complain: "These people don't even know how to use a planer!" It's good if you don't sink when you throw something into the water. ”

Yang Yingqi said patiently: "Who is born to build a big ship!" If they don't understand, you can teach them until they know how to do it one by one! If they all do, what else do we want you to do? ”

Ouyang Long said: "Teach? How to teach? These people are clumsy, I'm afraid they won't be able to teach them in a hundred years! ”

Yang Yingqi's face sank, and he said coldly: "What are you talking about!" Two days ago, I came to boast that I wanted to build a sea boat, but now it has become a big problem to build some small boats and rafts! I tell you, I have made it clear to the lord of the kingdom that within three months a thousand ships will be launched. Now that I've got it for you, I'll get you a steady stream of wood! The forge has stopped other work and built a large number of tools according to your description! You can say that I will give you whatever you want, and if you can't get the boat out then, just wait to lose your head. ”

Ouyang Long was so frightened that half of the three souls and seven spirits were lost, and after finding that the plea had no effect, he hurriedly ran back to the shipyard and stirred up hundreds of people. He and his nephew Ouyang Yun picked out a dozen carpenters who were more clever, teaching them day and night, and then let them teach others. As for those who are rough-handed, let them carry and carry them.

Yang Yingqi went to the shipyard a few days later, and saw that there was tension and chaos everywhere, and he said in his heart: "Uncle Ouyang's enthusiasm seems to have been mobilized, but it is too disorderly. "I came to find Ouyang Long, and saw that he was personally shaving, and saw Yang Yingqi hurriedly coming over and said: "General Xiao Yang, I'm in a hurry, don't rush!" ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Let the others be busy first." Your uncles and nephews come with me. ”

Ouyang Long said: "I'm in a hurry." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "If you are in a hurry, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deliver within three months." Come here, I'll teach you some secrets from the Book of Heaven. ”

Ouyang Long was very happy when he heard the "Heavenly Book Secret", and hurriedly followed.

The three of them sat down, and Yang Yingqi said: "If you want to build a big ship, how can you make a mess like today's shipyard!" Is it true that your Ouyang family's shipbuilding is like this, and there is no law order at all? ”

Ouyang Long complained bitterly: "Why not." Those who read the drawings, those who supervised the construction, those who planed the wood, and everything were separated. But now these people don't understand anything! I can only teach them one by one. ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Teaching is to teach, but you don't have any Dharma in your chest, so it's such a mess!" I said I want you to build a thousand ships in three months, but you don't have to be in such a hurry. In the first month, it doesn't matter if you only build 10 ships, the key is to build up the shipyard organization and train a group of people who can do the work. Then your second and third months will be much faster. ”

Ouyang Long nodded, and Yang Yingqi continued to explain to him the division of labor, management and other principles. Ouyang Long has never read any books, and these principles cannot be explained, but he has been in the Ouyang family for decades and has a lot of experience, so Yang Yingqi is thorough at the key point. Ouyang Yun is still young, and he knows some words, so he has gained more.

Ouyang Long was very impressed when he heard this, and said: "General Xiao Yang, it turns out that you also know how to build ships, and you are better than me." ”

Yang Yingqi smiled: "I don't know how to build ships. However, the principle of organizing and assigning manpower is basically the same. It's just that you have to think about how to use it in shipbuilding, and if you can't figure it out, come to me at any time to talk. Remember, you are no longer a shipbuilder, but a shipbuilder! Build these river boats and bring out a group of handy people, so that we can build sea ships in the future. ”

Ouyang Long was pleasantly surprised: "The big sea ship? ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Yes! Sea ships. As long as you do a good job, I will allocate more manpower to you in the future. 1,000, 2,000...... Or even 10,000 people! Think about it, if you could command 10,000 man-made ships, what kind of giant ships would be built! At that time, even your brother Ouyang Ji had to bow his head when he saw you. ”

Ouyang Long was overjoyed and said, "General Xiao Yang, don't worry, I will do a good job." ”
