When Wei Yan finished training his 5,000 guards and returned to the Pingnan General's Mansion, he saw Ma Jun waiting in front of the mansion with a depressed expression. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wei Yanfei dismounted, handed the reins to the horseman, and asked Ma Jun with a smile: "Deheng, why do you look like this?" ”

Ma Jun hung his head and said dejectedly: "Lord, my subordinates have lost." ”

Wei Yan was very incredulous, and looked at Ma Jun in surprise: "Don't you tell me, you actually lost to my lady for such a thing as improving the silk weaving machine?" ”

Silk is a kind of jacquard silk fabric with a smooth surface, Huaxia is the earliest country in the world to produce silk fabrics, the earliest weaving machine has one hundred and twenty feet (pedals), people use pedals to manage it, weaving a flower silk takes about two months. Later, although this kind of weaving machine has been simplified many times, by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was still a weaving machine with 50 warp threads and a weaving machine with 60 warp threads and 60 threads, which was very clumsy.

Wei Yan saw that the peasant women were tired and sweaty and the production efficiency was very low, so he assigned tasks to Ma Jun and Huang Yueying to improve the weaving machine to reduce the labor of the workers.

Ma Jun drooped his head: "Yes, my subordinates didn't expect it, but the master's mother changed it first, and it was better than her subordinates." ”

"Let's go to their workshop." Wei Yan walked to a large compound next to the Pingnan General's Mansion, which was even bigger than the Pingnan General's Mansion.

The female soldiers guarding the door saw that it was Wei Yan and Ma Jun, so they let them in, but their eyes were full of fun when they looked at Ma Jun.

The layout of the whole compound is very similar to that of some assembly line factories in later generations, each product is lined up in a line, divided into different stations according to different division of labor, and assembled step by step, which not only ensures the confidentiality of the process, but also greatly improves the efficiency, which is naturally what Wei Yan told Huang Yueying to do.

After Huang Yueying used it at that time, she was shocked at Wei Yan: "Husband, you even know this." ”

Wei Yan sighed at the time, in fact, in the Qin Dynasty, there was already a prototype of assembly line operation, but unfortunately it was wiped out by the two Han Dynasty, fortunately he came, otherwise the industrial production efficiency of the Han nation would continue to stagnate for more than a thousand years.

Huang Yueying was dressed in a short dress, clean and neat, and was talking to Zhuge Meng in a production line.

Seeing Wei Yan and Ma Jun coming over, Huang Yueying stepped forward and smiled at Wei Yan: "Husband, fortunately, we have simplified the pedal, transformed the movement mechanism, the original weaving machine of fifty warp threads, sixty warp threads of sixty feet, we all changed to twelve shoes, after such an improvement, the new silk loom is not only more exquisite, simpler and more applicable, and the production efficiency is also five times higher than the original, the jacquard silk brocade weaved, the pattern is peculiar, and the pattern is varied. You see, this is a newly woven jacquard silk brocade, is it much better than the original? ”

Wei Yan looked at it and nodded: "It's really much better, let's start mass production of this machine." ”

Huang Yueying said to Zhuge Meng: "Then arrange mass production, let the second and third games be carried out simultaneously, and the first batch of 1,000 aircraft." ”

Zhuge Meng arranged the production task, ten lines at the same time, and the other two branches were also carried out, the new weaving machine not only marketed more than a dozen counties controlled by the Yiyang Army, but also prepared to market Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places.

According to Wei Yan's instructions, this new weaving machine, and even all the machines, have gradually achieved the standardization and interchangeability of parts, so that assembly, transportation, and after-sales are very convenient, and it can also have a technical crushing advantage over counterfeit products in other places.

Wei Yan looked back at Ma Jun and said with a smile: "Deheng, it really shouldn't be." ”

The reason why Wei Yan said this is because Ma Jun's first commendable invention in history was to improve the silk loom, but he didn't expect that in this life, he would be defeated in the hands of Huang Yueying.

Ma Jun didn't understand Wei Yan's deep meaning, just looked at the new silk weaving machine made by Huang Yueying blankly, and sighed: "The skills are not as good as people, there is no way." ”

At this time, Wei Yan walked up to Huang Yueying and asked quietly, "How did you suddenly become so powerful?" ”

Huang Yueying thought for a moment, and finally made up her mind, pulled Wei Yan, and walked to a secret room in the workshop.

In that room, a man and a woman were waiting for Wei Yan.

Wei Yan fixed his eyes and saw that the pair of men and women were all sturdy, with sharp eyes, thick fingers, and looked extraordinary, not like ordinary craftsmen, so he asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man and woman bowed: "Tell the general, we are disciples of the Mo family." After saying his identity, he looked at Wei Yan nervously.

They can't help but be nervous, starting from the first generation of Mo Zhai of the Mo family, the Mo family is the main opposition of Confucianism, especially before the rise of Legalism, the Mo family is the largest school opposed to Confucianism in the pre-Qin period, and in the Western Han Dynasty, due to the exclusive Confucian policy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Mo family gradually disappeared after the Western Han Dynasty, and the Mo family disciples can hardly be seen in public occasions, and because the Mo family and Confucianism have various ideas-for-tat, once the Mo family characters appear, they must be banned by the absolute mainstream of Confucianism, they are very worried, Wei Yan would sell them to Confucianism.

Before Wei Yan crossed, he had read a document, the Mo family has actually been quietly inherited, the last generation of the Mo family appeared in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and the last generation of Juzi left a suicide note, this Juzi only has two disciples left, one outside and one inside, and the outer disciples have traveled far away, and the inner disciples have closed the Hidden Spirit Secret Mansion, and have since been cut off.

Extrapolating, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, even if the Mo family was secretly circulated, it still had considerable power.

Wei Yan looked at the man: "Are you a juzi?" ”

The man shook his head: "Not down there." ”

A voice came from behind Wei Yan: "Husband, the concubine is the son of the Mo family." ”

Wei Yan turned around and looked at Huang Yueying in disbelief: "You are a woman, how can you be a big man?" ”

Huang Yueying smiled slightly: "Husband, the Mo family advocates both love and virtue, and is in opposition to Confucianism, naturally it is not the inferiority of men and women, but the equality of men and women. The concubine was promoted as a great son after marrying her husband! ”

In fact, in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were records of women as vice-jugglers.

Wei Yan instantly understood, perhaps, that life, the wooden ox and flowing horse, Zhuge crossbow, mine (used when capturing Meng), and Zama nail...... A series of inventions were not made by Zhuge Liang, but invented by Huang Yueying and her Mohist team, just like Edison, he became a great inventor not by his wisdom alone, but also by his strong team, and Huang Yueying is the same.

Compared with the much-criticized Confucianism, he, who is also an engineer, admires this group of ancient engineers more, and he laughed loudly: "Do you think that following me can really make the Mo family flourish?" ”
