Chapter 247 Craftsman Classification
"Skilled craftsmen of all kinds, whether carpenters or blacksmiths, are divided into apprentices according to their skills! Artisan! Craftsman! Masters! Master Craftsman! Master! Six levels.
Reach the level of the craftsman, and the imperial court will issue a monthly payment! This is true regardless of whether you serve the court or not, but there is a war, and you must respond to the call of the court!
Ten times a month for the master craftsman; Twenty masters of the master; Grandmaster is blessed with fifty times a month, knighted! As for whether it is sealed or not, it depends on his contribution to the court and the people of the world!
In addition, for each invention and improvement of an object, a reward of more than ten times will be given depending on the situation, and there is no upper limit! Sitting down again, Zou Yu took out a stack of papers and asked people to send them down and said.
"The prime minister's move is really a way out for all craftsmen in the world! Xia Guan is grateful! Li Chun burst into tears, got up and bent over his hands, and bowed.
"Young Eunuch Li doesn't need to be polite, I'm just doing my part! Shinong Industry and Commerce! Everyone is just a different division of labor, how can they determine their status by their occupation! Because it was far away, Zou Yu got up and said.
"The prince is cautious! When these words get out, I am afraid that some people will take the opportunity to attack and seriously hurt them with rumors! Pei Shiqing persuaded him.
"Shinong Industry and Commerce! No agriculture is unstable; No work, no wealth; No business, no life; Nothing is exciting! This king never cares what others say behind their backs. Zou Yu waved his hand and said.
"The prince is right! There is a saying: if the farmer does not come out, there is no food, if the work does not come out, there is no work, if the business is not out, the three treasures are absolute, and if the food is not out, there is little wealth. Fang Xuanling quoted scriptures and agreed.
"What do you think of this setting?" Zou Yu nodded and asked.
"The prince is wise!" The crowd agreed.
"Dare to ask the prince! How are these levels divided? What is the standard! Yan Lide asked.
"Needless to say, apprentices can make a certain item and reach an eighty percent chance of success, then they can become a master and become a craftsman; As for the craftsman, he is proficient in a certain job, qualified to teach his disciples, and regarded as a craftsman! This point needs to be assessed by the craftsman supervisor before the monthly service is issued; As for the master craftsman, he must not only be proficient in his own skills, but also have a specialty that he can master; The master craftsman must have a new invention or an improvement on something, and this improved invention can be generalized and taught to others; As for the Grandmaster, it is even simpler, there is an achievement recognized by the world or the imperial court! For example, Young Eunuch Li Chun! Can be a bridge grandmaster!
As for how to judge, the craftsman supervisor formulates a standard, discusses it with the Heroes Palace, and then announces it to the world! Zou Yu picked up a piece of paper again and handed it down.
"The subordinate obeys!" Yan Lide stood up and saluted cautiously.
"Now the workshop is only using the equipment in the first place, and there is still a lot of room for improvement, and I hope that the craftsman supervisor will make persistent efforts and work hard to study." The people below were reading the documents, and Zou Yu continued to Yan Liben.
"Xia Guan understands!" Yan Liben nodded.
"Young Eunuch Li Chun, continue to serve as a young eunuch of the craftsman supervisor, and be crowned with the title of bridge grandmaster! As for the title, this king will ask for a county male first, and if there are achievements in the future, he will be rewarded separately. Zou Yu saw that he had finished reading it, so he continued.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Li Chun said excitedly.
You must know that it is not difficult to be crowned, the most difficult thing is to be knighted, and it is to be knighted as a craftsman, and there are few throughout the ages.
"Young eunuch doesn't need to be polite, you deserve it!" Zou Yu was relieved, and then said to the Yuwen Rutong brothers: "The two titles are still the same, temporarily serving as subordinates of the Ministry of Industry, Tuntian, and Dushui Shilangzhong!" ”
Six departments and twenty-four divisions in three provinces, with Shangshu as the main official and Shilang as the deputy; Each department is subordinate to the four divisions, and Lang Zhong is the chief officer. So a position in Langzhong is already very high, and he has real power.
"The subordinate obeys!" Brother Yuwen hurriedly saluted.
Only after Yuwenkai's death, although Yuwen Rutong inherited the title, the two brothers were like being forgotten by the imperial court and were not appointed at all; This time, Yan Liben invited them, and they happened to encounter the Luoyang Mutiny, so they took advantage of that time to manage the chaos and leave Luoyang.
When I came, I just heard that Jinyang reused capable craftsmen, and I had the attitude of giving it a try, but I didn't expect that as soon as I came, it was real power.
"The two masters of the Yan family are already very busy, originally I was still having a headache, there are no professionals, the three of them came at the right time!" After talking about his duties, Zou Yu began to arrange things.
Fortunately, the three of them are all doers, so they didn't hesitate to get up and arch their hands: "Please give the Prime Minister's order!" ”
"After the autumn harvest, the people are empty, and it is time to gather the people to build several large reservoirs!" Zou Yu introduced.
"The new water conservancy is a good thing, but the people have just stabilized, will this conscription for labor cause public anger?" Li Chun reminded euphemistically.
"Young Eunuch Li don't worry, the prime minister is not letting the people serve for free, and the people will not be disgusted!" Fang Xuanling helped explain.
"Yes, this year the people are exempt from taxes, but there is not much grain in stock, and after the autumn harvest, the government pays grain in the form of labor, so that the people can save more food. There will be no worries about the grain tax next summer. Zou Yu nodded and said.
"The prime minister is wise! Xia Guan was too worried. Li Chun understood what Zou Yu meant, and said with admiration.
"I don't know how big a reservoir the prince needs to build? What is the specific purpose? Yuwen Rutong asked.
"No matter how big the reservoir is, you need to take people to various places to investigate! At the minimum, a few villages should be irrigated. The maximum is unlimited! The use, of course, is to water the fields!
Now we have a waterwheel, and with the capacity of the waterwheel, we can pump water to a high place, and use multiple waterwheels, layer by layer, to gradually pump water to the reservoir. In this way, irrigation can be guaranteed even in a year of great drought, and even if it is not a year of great drought, water can be put down through the canal, so that the people do not have to work hard to carry water.
It's just that it is necessary to find a suitable mountain col, fence it off to build a reservoir, and ensure that the water of the reservoir will not cause landslides! Zou Yu picked up the drawings and explained.
"This is not a small project! Using the mountain col as a reservoir will cause a lot of water loss, which requires no hollows in the mountain! The terrain is too restrictive! After looking at it for a long time, thinking about it in his heart for a while, Yuwen Rutong frowned.
"It's really hard to find! I mean, if there is a suitable place, it is completely possible to fence off the whole village, all and build a huge reservoir. Even in the event of a once-in-a-century drought, you can put the water from the reservoir into the river to ensure that the people have water to eat! Zou Yu nodded and said.
"The whole village?" Yan Lide was startled and asked.
"Yes, the whole village, if you want the terrain of two mountains and one ditch, and build a large reservoir dozens to hundreds of miles long, Young Eunuch Li can be sure that such a big dam will be built!" Zou Yu asked.
