Zheng Jifu went to the palace again and exchanged marriage contracts with His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er also handed over a booklet to Zheng Jifu.

That is the method of drying salt written on the Tang River.

Flipping through the booklet, Zheng Jifu couldn't help but say "it"!

Will this work?

No wonder the salt cost in Yuncheng is high, people are dried salt, basically do not need too much material resources, only a round of red sun is enough for birds!

And what about the Zheng family?

To mine, to crush, to dissolve, to filter, and finally to boil salt!

Compared with this, the manpower and material resources spent have naturally increased exponentially......

Of course, despite complaining in his heart, Zheng Jifu sincerely felt that he had lost unjustly, and only Tang Laosi could think of such a thing as drying salt.

Speaking of Tang Lao Si, after arriving in Hanyang, after a day of repair, a day of recruitment of Hanyang shipbuilders.

On the Don River, all the shipbuilders were summoned to a large house in the rented shipbuilding rest area.

Don stood at the innermost end of the house, and behind him was a black plank.

The wooden planks are freshly made on the Tang River, which is also due to the fact that the weather in the south has begun to warm, otherwise in two days, the black paint on the wooden planks may not be able to dry thoroughly.

The black wooden board is full of white lettering.

By the way, there is also a three-dimensional picture, which makes people understand that it is a ship at a glance!

Looking at the eighty craftsmen from Lingnan and more than fifty locally recruited craftsmen sitting on a stool in front of him, Tang Heshang took a deep breath and began to speak:

"Everyone! Whether you are from Lingnan or a local craftsman in Hanyang, Tang would like to sincerely thank you for your willingness to join the big family of the Navy.

Here, Tang will first tell you about the division of the level and monthly salary of naval craftsmen.

Naval shipbuilders will be divided into apprentices, first-class craftsmen, second-class craftsmen, third-class craftsmen, craftsmen, and ghost workers; Among them, the apprentice monthly salary is five hanging, the first-level craftsman monthly salary is consistent, the second-level monthly salary is consistent and half, and so on.

At the same time, the apprentice received the rank of warrant officer of the navy, which was equivalent to a foreign officer; The first-class craftsman receives the rank of second lieutenant of the navy, which is equivalent to the ninth grade; The second-class craftsman received the rank of captain, which was equivalent to the eighth grade; The third-level craftsman leads the rank of major, which is equivalent to the seventh grade; The craftsman received the rank of colonel, which was equivalent to the sixth grade; The ghost worker leads the rank of young craftsman, and is equivalent to a five-grade official.

The specific rank of the navy will not be repeated here, and I believe that after getting along for a long time, you will be able to understand it. Tang can only assure you that as long as you have enough ability, the navy and the imperial court will definitely not be stingy with official positions.

The purpose of these things is very simple, that is, I hope that you will work in a down-to-earth manner in the days to come. At the same time, if there is any good suggestion, just put it forward.

You, from now on, are not hired by the Navy, but you are all part of the Navy!

Of course, there is an essential difference between sea ships and river ships, do you have the confidence to build a qualified naval ship and build the largest ship in the world? ”

"Yes!"

"It works!"

"No problem!"

The jagged voices emanating from the mouths of the craftsmen include the Hanyang dialect, the broken Mandarin, and the Lingnan native dialect.

Tang Heshang was very satisfied with the passion of the craftsmen, nodded, and then pointed to the three-dimensional pattern on the blackboard and said, "It's good to have confidence!"

Before you do, though, you need to know what kind of ships the Navy is going to build. What is the difference between the boats we build and the river boats!

At the same time, in order to ensure the manufacturability and process of shipbuilding, you must learn new weights and measures before building a ship! Of course, this is after today!

So today, what is the main thing?

Maybe everyone has seen it, it's the picture behind Tang! ”

The Tang River staggered a body and displayed the three-dimensional picture on the blackboard.

A lot of craftsmen are directly stupid!

It was a vivid battleship, and the height of the whole hull was larger than the width, like a flat swimming fish. The bow of the battleship looked very sharp, but there was no slap.

On the side of the battleship were written the following words: "The length of the ship is 100 meters, the height of the ship is 18 meters, and the maximum width is 16 meters!" ”

Craftsmen don't understand the meaning of "100", "18", "16", and they don't know if "rice" can be eaten.

But just such a picture makes the craftsmen feel as if they are in front of a behemoth!

The main thing is that there are no sails on this battleship! Instead, it's like a chimney! The belly of the battleship did not stick out, but there were several sets of windmill-like objects on the tail of the battleship.

"What kind of ship is this?"

"I don't know, it looks amazing!"

"It should be big, but this ship has no sails, what can be used as power?"

“......”

The craftsmen in the audience began to talk.

Admiral Tang He raised his hand flat and pressed down many times before finally bringing calm back to the entire venue.

"Everyone!"

Tang Heshang said with a smile: "This is the warship that Tang wants to build!" You may wonder, how can a ship sail without sails? How can you melee combat without a slap stick?

However, all this is not a problem, you just need to think about what kind of wood to use as a keel and what kind of planks to use as a plywood!

The problem of power, Tang will naturally find a way to solve it!

At the same time, I can reveal to you that the ships of our navy do not need close combat, let alone soldiers to fight with knives! Moreover, our ship will completely ignore the impact of others!

After you learn the measurement specifications, Tang will divide the labor among you, and each group of craftsmen will make the parts that make up the giant ship according to the drawings in their hands.

Ladies and gentlemen, you are all the top existences of Datang Shipbuilding, do you dare to accompany Tang to try it and build the world's largest ship! Do you dare to accompany Tang to make a grand wish, so that Datang can always build the world's largest ship? ”

As a craftsman, my greatest wish is to cast the best thing in the world.

The last two sentences on the Tang River pierced the hearts of the shipbuilders!

What's more, the treatment given by the navy is only afraid that no one in the world can give it.

I only heard the craftsmen say in unison: "I am willing to obey the leadership of General Tang, I am willing to work hard for the naval warships, and I am willing to make the Datang warship the most powerful warship in the world!" ”

"Good!"

Tang He's slapped on the blackboard, almost throwing the blackboard down.

With such craftsmen with the spirit of craftsmanship, do you still have to worry about building giant ships?

Tang Heshang took a deep breath and said: "For your great support, Tang and the navy sincerely thank you!" Today, our mobilization meeting will be held here for the time being, and we will disperse for a while and don't leave yet. Please also tell Tang what you are best at. ”
