The next day, Chen was in the woodworking workshop, and Deng Yang arrived as promised.

Deng Yang entered the carpentry workshop, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, and a pair of eyes was not enough at all.

Even when Chen Zheng came behind Deng Yang, he didn't notice it.

"How?" Chen Zheng asked behind Deng Yang.

Deng Yang turned around, only then did he see Chen Zheng, and hurriedly smiled: "It's so beautiful." ”

Chen Zheng called a guy over and said, "His name is Deng Yang, you introduce him to the situation in the store, and you take him with you during this time." ”

So, Deng Yang followed the guy to familiarize himself with the situation in the store.

After Chen Zheng walked around the carpentry workshop a few more times, he went to his own carpentry workshop.

This carpentry workshop is a small courtyard that Chen Zheng bought not far from the carpentry workshop, which is mainly used to make various furniture items.

As the business of Chen Ji Carpentry Workshop is getting bigger and bigger, Chen Zheng will definitely not be able to keep himself busy.

Fortunately, Chen Zheng selected some people who were interested in carpentry from the Red Pine Village to teach carpentry skills, and now most of the furniture can be processed from the carpentry workshop.

Of course, the furniture processed from here is explained by Chen Ji Red Pine Workshop, and Chen Zheng's works will never appear.

The furniture made from the carpentry workshop will be much lower in price at first, but the style is the same as that made by Chen Zheng, so that those who are not too wealthy can afford it.

At least in terms of style, the furniture used in ordinary homes is the same as that used by wealthy families, which greatly stimulates the consumption of ordinary people.

Although they themselves knew that the furniture they bought was not made by Chen Zheng himself, at least it was from Chen Kee's red pine workshop, and they were happy to do so.

This is the brand effect.

Although the product is not the original factory, as long as it is labeled with a brand recognized by everyone, the product produced has a value similar to that of the original product.

Chen Zheng builds furniture, usually in the backyard of the carpentry workshop, where he and Yue Xiaorong live.

Now, Chen Zheng is no longer doing it himself, sometimes he is interested, so he makes two pieces by himself and puts them in the woodworking workshop, both of which are marked at a high price.

But despite the high price, as long as Chen Zheng's works appear, they are generally bought quickly.

There is no market for it, this is the value of Chen Zheng's works now.

When they came to the workshop, they were busy inside, and if you looked closely, you would find that what they were doing now was the bus and carriage that Chen Zheng mobilized the people to take yesterday.

After Chen Zheng made the first bus carriage successfully, he sent the drawings to the workshop, and after the test ride yesterday, Chen Zheng ordered to go down and start building in batches.

The craftsmen here may not be as talented as the craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Industry to build ships, nor as skilled as those people, but they also have their own merits.

The advantage of the craftsmen in Chen Zhengmu's workshop is that they never pay attention to bells and whistles.

In a sense, woodworking should also be regarded as an art, focusing on the combination of imagination and skill.

However, Chen Zheng's definition is clear, they make products, not works of art.

The biggest function of the product is to use, as long as the thing that is easy to use is a good product; And the biggest function of a work of art is appreciation, not necessarily practical.

Of course, there are only a few people like Chen Zheng who can combine products and artworks.

Therefore, the workmanship has become the advantage of the craftsmen in this carpentry workshop, which can ensure that the products produced from here have absolutely no problems in terms of performance.

At the same time, Chen Zheng is not the kind of person who deliberately erases the artistic talent of others, if there is someone among these craftsmen who can show the slightest artistic talent, Chen Zheng will definitely not obstruct it.

Because Chen Zheng knows that the added value of art is much higher than the added value of product performance.

This is why the furniture made by Chen Zheng is several times more expensive than the furniture made by this carpentry workshop.

For the craftsmen in this carpentry workshop, the most rare thing is probably all kinds of carvings.

In this regard, Chen Zhengdu now draws the pattern, and then enlarges it on the wood through photocopying, and then the craftsman compares it little by little to carve out the pattern.

In this way, those carvings appear very rigid and unspiritual.

Maybe it can't be seen at first glance, but if there is an identical piece created by Chen Zheng next to it for comparison, it will be easy to compare the gap between the two.

Chen Zheng plans to make 20 of this first batch of buses, and 10 each on the east-west and north-south ring routes, which should be enough to operate in the initial stage.

Then it was necessary to make enough spare parts for the maintenance and renewal of the carriages to ensure the normal operation of the two loops.

This manufacturing process may take ten days or half a month, because not everyone can have a super carpenter system like Chen Zheng, and the speed of building is unbelievable.

Everything is going according to plan, not like facing a pirate invasion before, or going forward, a natural disaster is coming. This kind of leisurely life is the life that Chen Zheng yearns for.

However, the leisurely life often doesn't last long, because Xiao Zan is here again.

After Xiao Zan successfully established the whaling team, he led the team to rush back to Kyoto with Tang Yi, the secretary of the military department, and reported to Emperor Xiao Ding.

When Xiao Ding led the Kyoto ministers to see Xiao Zan's whaling fleet, Longyan Dayue immediately announced the abolition of the sea ban and established the Liang State Naval Division on the basis of the whaling team.

This greatly shocked Yu Youguang, the head of the household department who resolutely opposed the revocation of the sea ban, and vigorously opposed it on the spot, which made Xiao Ding very unhappy.

However, this time, Shangshu Ling Xu Yiyang, who has always been Yu Youguang's firm backing, did not open his mouth to help Yu Youguang speak.

In this way, Yu Youguang's opinion seemed very weak, and he could not stop Xiao Ding's decision at all.

In the end, Yu Youguang came to a way to put his death and live later, and resigned and refused.

In this way, Emperor Xiao Ding felt shocked again, so he had to be surprised and approved Yu Youguang's request to resign and let him return to his hometown.

This caught Yu Youguang off guard, originally resigning was just a means, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so real, and he was actually accurate, which made Yu Youguang a little difficult to ride.

However, if you say it and spill the water that you spill out, you can't get it back, despite all kinds of reluctance, Yu Youguang, the head of the household book, has done it anyway.

Immediately afterwards, Emperor Xiao Ding acted resolutely and summoned Feng Xueyong, the prefect of Hongjiang Prefecture, to return to Beijing and succeed him to the post of secretary of the household department.

This decision caused an uproar among hundreds of officials.

From the prefect of a state, he was directly promoted to the head of the household, and even Feng Xueyong himself was a little stunned.

However, with Yu Youguang's experience, at this moment, no one dared to speak out against or even question, so Feng Xueyong successfully became the head of the household.

Subsequently, Xiao Ding ordered Tang Yi to step up the establishment of a naval division, to build a combatable division in the shortest possible time to solve the bandits in the East China Sea.

When Xiao Zan reported, by the way, he also told them about their annihilation of the Fusang bandits before, and Li Gang and Feng Xueyong had also played this matter before, and Chen Zheng's name was mentioned many times in front of the emperor.

When he first learned that a group of bandits dared to attack the county seat of Liangguo, Xiao Ding was outraged, which was one of the reasons why he made up his mind to directly abolish the sea ban.

Therefore, Xiao Ding gave Tang Yi an order to set up a sailor, and the first thing to eliminate was the lair of the Fusang bandits, and completely solve the bandit problem in the East China Sea.

In addition, for Chen Zheng, who was mentioned many times, Emperor Xiao Ding finally issued a decree to praise him.

Knighted!

Chen Zheng was named a man from Ningyang County, and Li Shuang was also named a man from Haiyang County.

Ningyang County and Haiyang County are two small county towns under the jurisdiction of Hongjiang Mansion, which are worse than Dongyang County, and the county male is the lowest level of the title, so in Xiao Zan's opinion, his father picked out the search, and only sealed out two county men, which is not interesting enough.

According to Xiao Zan's meaning, at least one county uncle must be sealed.

However, when Chen Zheng and Li Shuang received the holy decree, they were still very happy.

Although the title of a county man is not as profitable as the two of them in business, it is also a status symbol.

This symbolizes that the two have officially stepped into the aristocratic class of the Liang Kingdom, after all, this title can be inherited.

Of course, the premise is that the offspring of the two are not so wasteful and losers.

Therefore, Xiao Zan's return this time not only brought the good news of the two knighthoods, but also brought a new task - to set up a sailor division and exterminate the remnants of the bandits.

This is not a difficult task, the dockyard has now been nominally accepted by Liang Guo, and all Chen Zheng has to do is to receive money every month, and he no longer needs to worry about the rest.

Moreover, shipyard shipbuilding has already formed mass production, and expanding the size of the fleet is the first thing to solve the problem.

After all, it is unrealistic to set up a naval division, with a dozen ships.

Build the ship first, then recruit soldiers and train them.

And in charge of this series of tasks, Chen Zheng originally thought that even if he was not Tang Yi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, he would send someone from the Ministry of War to take over.

However, in fact, Emperor Xiao Ding has already confirmed the candidate.

This person is the current county magistrate Li Gang of Dongyang County.

However, the leisurely life often doesn't last long, because Xiao Zan is here again.

After Xiao Zan successfully established the whaling team, he led the team to rush back to Kyoto with Tang Yi, the secretary of the military department, and reported to Emperor Xiao Ding.
