"Brother Zhang, how is the progress of building the new armor? How long does it take to build 5,000 sets? ”

After descending from Yunshan, Li Zexuan came to the makeshift blacksmith workshop near the Bahe Hydropower Station, and he asked Zhang Hongsheng to call him, and then asked.

The workshop is not short of iron at present, because Li Zexuan himself already has iron ore, and the eldest grandson's family also handed over the iron ore to him (of course, the condition is that Li Zexuan's iron smelted from the iron ore of the eldest grandson's family every year will be distributed to the eldest grandson's family half, but this time to help the Xuanjia army refine armor equipment, the eldest grandson Wuji very generously agreed to supply Li Zexuan with 200,000 catties of iron ore free of charge), so he is not short of raw materials for the production of weapons and armor, what he lacks is speed!

Zhang Hongsheng may have just come from the wrought iron stove, his head was full of sweat, and when he heard Li Zexuan's question, he wiped his sweat and replied:

"Master Hou, vanadium steel horse lance, horse armor, horseshoes, these three things are good to say, it is not complicated to build, but the plate armor is not very easy to build, and the cooperation between the joints of the body and the plate armor must be taken into account when building, although we now have a hydraulic stamping machine tool, but a day can only produce up to ten sets of plate armor, and if you want to complete all five thousand sets of plate armor, it will take almost five hundred days!"

"More than five hundred days?"

Li Zexuan couldn't help frowning, let alone five hundred days, even if it was a hundred days, he couldn't afford to wait! After pondering for a moment, Li Zexuan asked, "If you add a few more hydraulic stamping machines, can you increase the speed of plate armor?" ”

Zhang Hongsheng scratched his head, thought for a moment, and replied: "Master Hou, this is okay, but in addition to the hydraulic stamping machine, I think our workshop needs to recruit another batch of blacksmiths, otherwise the speed will not be much improved!" ”

Li Zexuan nodded and said: "That's the truth, I'll ask Fu Bo to recruit a group of blacksmiths as soon as possible, if you have a familiar blacksmith, you can also help introduce them!" ”

Zhang Hongsheng laughed and said, "Hey! Hou Ye, when you say this, Zhang really thinks of some acquaintance blacksmiths, their skills must not be said, and they will be idle today, Zhang will ask them to come over to help! ”

When Li Zexuan heard this, he immediately put his mind at ease, and he said with a smile: "Whether it is to expand the recruitment of craftsmen or increase the hydraulic stamping machine tool, you can just let it go, you don't need to worry about materials and money, Benhou only needs you to lead someone to make five thousand sets of plate armor as soon as possible!" Two months, two months at most, Brother Zhang, is there a way to complete the task in two months? ”

"More than two months?"

Zhang Hongsheng couldn't help but be stunned, according to the current speed, it would take a total of five hundred days, but Li Zexuan opened his mouth for sixty days, directly compressing the time to nearly one-tenth, he subconsciously wanted to finish speaking directly, but seeing the eagerness in Li Zexuan's eyes, it was obvious that Li Zexuan wanted to create five thousand sets of plate armor as soon as possible at any cost!

Could it be that there is a war in Datang that is near?

Zhang Hongsheng suddenly had such a guess in his heart, and he was stunned and scared himself out of a cold sweat.

"Master Hou! This Zhang can't guarantee you, but Zhang will do his best, and I hope that I will be able to live up to the trust of the Hou Ye when the time comes~! ”

Zhang Hongsheng gritted his teeth and hugged his fists.

Hearing this, Li Zexuan did not embarrass Zhang Hongsheng, but said with a smile:

"Okay! That Ben Hou is looking forward to your good news, what do you need, even if you live with me Fuberti~! ”

With that, Li Zexuan turned around and prepared to leave.

Zhang Hongsheng suddenly said at this time: "Master Hou, there is one thing that needs your help~!" ”

Li Zexuan paused, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Hongsheng said: "Master Hou, you must also know that this plate armor must first match the short, fat and thin of the soldiers' stature to exert the greatest effectiveness, otherwise this plate armor will greatly affect the actions of the soldiers on the battlefield!" So Zhang wanted to ask Hou Ye to send someone to measure the bodies of the soldiers wearing this batch of plate armor! ”

When Li Zexuan heard this, he couldn't help but secretly say that Zhang Hongsheng was still quite thoughtful, but he still frowned and said: "In this way, it must also greatly affect the speed of building armor, right?" ”

"Uh, it probably will!"

Zhang Hongsheng scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"But your proposal is not unreasonable, in this way, I will send someone to measure the body of the soldiers, and you need to divide their figures into four sizes according to the data I provided to you, small, medium, large, and extra-large, each size actually corresponds to a range of body data, what is this range, you can consider it yourself, in this way, we only need to produce four sizes of armor, and the soldiers wear behind them, although there will be a little error, but it will not affect their normal activities!

In addition, when forging armor, Brother Zhang, you must remember to let the craftsmen divide and work together, and divide the plate armor into many parts, so that a specific group of craftsmen can specialize in production! For example, a group of people specialize in creating bracers, another group of people specialize in building shoulder armor, and another group of people specialize in creating helmets, so that a production unit only needs to focus on processing a certain fragment of work, which can greatly improve work efficiency and output! ”

Li Zexuan simply told Zhang Hongsheng about the modern clothing size grading system, compared with tailor-made, making clothes according to the size number can greatly save labor costs and time costs, which is why the clothes in the modern mall are basically marked with "S" size, "M" size, "L" size and so on.

Speaking of size, Li Zexuan remembered that plate armor is very suitable for building in an assembly line way, so. He taught the assembly line production method to Zhang Hongsheng.

In fact, on the side of the new workshop of Qiquge, some workshops have long been using the production method of the assembly line, such as the bicycle workshop, but Zhang Hongsheng joined the workshop relatively late, and he is not very clear about the assembly line model.

Hearing this, Zhang Hongsheng's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Master Hou's method of dividing sizes and division of labor is simply great!" In this way, it is really possible for us to build 5,000 sets of plate armor in two months! ”

Hearing Zhang Hongsheng say this, Li Zexuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's good!" Then there's Brother Lao Zhang here! ”

"Master Hou just rest assured!"

...................................

Leaving the plate armor forging workshop, Li Zexuan went directly to the workshop to find Fu Bo, and told Fu Bo about the expansion of blacksmiths and the addition of hydraulic stamping machine tools, and Fu Bo agreed with his mouth. After repeatedly instructing Fu Bo to ensure Zhang Hongsheng's production, Li Zexuan turned around and went to the laboratory in the workshop.

In the morning, Li Taike said that Yan Shaoning and Mo Lingwei were about to get married, and as a friend and "boss", Li Zexuan had to go and see the newcomer in person!

"Shaoning, quickly connect it and see if the motor can rotate?"

(It used to be called Xiao Ningzi, but now it's called Shao Ning, it seems that this woman who is about to get married will generally be more polite than before)

"Good! Vier, you wait! ”

"Hmm!"

"Woo~! Woo~! ”

"Turned! Turned! This small motor can rotate stably, which means that our rectifier circuit has finally succeeded! ”

When Li Zexuan was close to Mo Lingwei's laboratory, he heard such a conversation coming from inside, and finally heard Mo Lingwei's cheers, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and secretly said Could it be that the electron diode was made?

So, he hurriedly quickened his pace and walked into the laboratory.

"Shaoning, Miss Mo, have you made an electron diode?"

When he entered the laboratory, he saw Mo Lingwei and Yan Shaoning snickering at the small DC motor that was spinning wildly on the table, and Li Zexuan couldn't help but ask.

"Yikes! Mountain Chief, you're here! ”

Hearing Li Zexuan's voice, Mo Lingwei hurriedly stood up and said hello, and then, she said excitedly: "Chief, Shaoning and I not only built an electronic diode, but also made a rectifier circuit, just now we tried it with a small DC motor, it is completely feasible!" In the future, as long as it is matched with the rectifier circuit, we can directly use AC power to charge the battery~! ”

Li Zexuan stepped forward to take a look, and seeing that the rotor of the motor had been rotating steadily, he nodded and said, "Hmm!" I didn't expect you to make diodes so quickly, I thought you would make DC generators first, and then study how to make diodes! ”

Mo Lingwei glanced at Yan Shaoning, and said with some embarrassment: "I originally planned to do the same before, but a few days ago, Shaoning was ... was injured by me, even if I built a DC generator, he couldn't accompany me to the dam to verify, so I took care of him in the workshop, and tried to make the kind of electron diode you said, but I didn't expect it to really make the two of us~! ”

Looking at the bright-eyed girl in front of him, Li Zexuan couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Miss Mo's talent in physics is really admirable!" I'm afraid that many men are less than one-tenth of you! ”

Yan Shaoning immediately stopped doing it, "Eh, eh! Xiao Xuan, how do I feel that you have something to say? I'm afraid that you, the "many men", include me, right? ”

Li Zexuan said with a smile on his face: "How is that possible?" Shaoning, your talent, that's no worse than Miss Mo! Isn't it, Miss Mo? ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Mo Lingwei glanced at Yan Shaoning lightly with a slightly threatening gaze.

Yan Shaoning was excited, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no!" Xiao Xuan, what are you talking about? My talent is still a little worse than Wei'er~! Hey~! ”

Li Zexuan was speechless for an instant, and said in his heart that his brother will definitely be a strict wife in the future!

"Hmph~! That's pretty much it~! ”

Mo Lingwei snorted, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Li Zexuan looked at Yan Shaoning at this time and asked, "Shaoning, how is your body recovering?" Delay the marriage at the end of the month? ”

Hearing this, Mo Lingwei next to her suddenly turned red, but Yan Shaoning's face was stagnant, and he said, "Eh! Do you know all about the mountain chief? Don't worry, I'm fine, I shouldn't delay getting married! ”

The reason why the wedding date is set so tightly is that it is all his own pot, if he hadn't pretended to be okay in front of Yan Lide and kept saying that he was only a little injured, Yan Lide would definitely not have chosen him and Mo Lingwei's marriage date so close!

But now that the matter has come to this, it's too late to say anything, and the kiss you made about yourself will be finished on your knees!

Li Zexuan looked at Yan Shaoning's expression, and his heart instantly understood, but this matter was Yan Shaoning's family matter, and he was not easy to interfere with, after all, it was difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs! After pondering for a moment, he said: "I will ask Daoist Sun to do more acupuncture and massage for you these days, supplemented by medicinal wine, which should be able to speed up the recovery of your lower back, but you should also be careful not to do strenuous exercise, so as not to add injury to injury~!" ”

Today is the fourth day of the first month of June, and there are only more than 20 days before the end of June, but generally speaking, it takes 100 days to break the muscles and bones, and in this special period, there is only special means!

Yan Shaoning didn't refuse, he nodded and said, "Then thank you a lot~!" ”

Li Zexuan couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Go!" Are you still polite with me~? Seeing that the two of you have finally come together, I, as a brother, am also very happy for you, rest assured, when you get married, I will definitely give you a big gift~! ”

Hearing Li Zexuan say a big gift, Mo Lingwei next to her suddenly couldn't care about being shy, she "swooped", and set her eyes on Li Zexuan's body, Yan Shaoning's eyes also lit up, and said directly: "Big gift? Xiao Xuan, what kind of gift? Let's take a look at it first, huh? If it's not to our liking, you have time for another gift, don't you? ”

Li Zexuan glared at this stinky and shameless goods angrily, and said, "Get out!" Love or not! ”

This gift recipient is still picking and choosing here, what else can it be if it's not stinky and shameless?

"No, Xiao Xuan, why are you unreasonable? You said that you have to satisfy the recipient of the gift, right? Why else would you give a gift? ”

Yan Shaoning began to play scoundrel.

I have to say that this thing has been with Mo Lingwei for a long time, and she has become more skinny!

Li Zexuan rolled his eyes and said, "Okay! Then I won't send it~! ”

"Oops! Other! Don't! Let's talk and discuss! ”

Yan Shaoning hurriedly said.

The person in front of him is a real big family, and the big gift he wants to give is definitely not small, and Yan Shao would rather not miss it.

Li Zexuan was too lazy to talk to this guy, he turned to look at Mo Lingwei and said:

"Since the diode has been made, it means that Mr. Wang's electrolysis workshop can operate normally, and in the past two days, Miss Mo has worked hard to help Mr. Wang transform the electrolysis workshop. In addition, now we can connect the alternating current to charge the battery, which means that the conditions for the large-scale application of the battery are ripe, and you need to arrange for the craftsman to make a batch of batteries as soon as possible for backup! ”

Mo Lingwei said: "Yes! Mountain Chief! ”

After a pause, she asked, "Chief, can we still build a DC generator?" ”

Li Zexuan pondered for a moment and said, "Build!" Of course you have to build it, but you don't need to build it, this thing is relatively simple, over there in the academy, recently Qingque will come to the workshop to practice and help, you can leave this work to him to do! ”

"Huh~? His Royal Highness the King of Wei is coming to the workshop? ”

When Mo Lingwei heard this, she immediately exclaimed.

Although the Mo family used to live in a remote place for a long time, they didn't ask about the world, and they didn't know how to deal with the royal power, but since they entered the WTO last year, the Mo family and others have slowly begun to fear the royal power.
