Chapter 287: Wear a coat for Shuofang City
It is impossible for a few people, or even a few hundred people, to repair a huge Shuofang City, although it may be much smaller than the city of Shuofang in other state capitals, but in the land of the Hetao, it can really be called a lion isolated on the grassland.

Zhang Yi understands Wang Lao Wu's thoughts very well, his life can be dedicated to the country, but the secret recipe is not successful. Because his life is worthless, he will die when he dies, but in his opinion, the secret recipe is something related to the entire Zhangjiazhuang, and it is a good thing that can be passed on, how can he be willing to take it out and let other irrelevant people learn it?
Although the life of Zhangjiazhuang is simply paradise compared to the past, it is precisely because they know that happiness is not easy to come by, so the old people in the village like them attach more importance to these things that can bring benefits to their livelihoods.
Just like the hatchery, just because there is a method of hatching chickens inside, it is regarded as a forbidden place by the people of the whole village, not to mention that outsiders can't enter, even the women of the village can't enter within three feet of the sideline, if you find it, you will be separated! Of course, if it is an outsider, I am afraid that the end will be even more miserable! You must know that the Zhuang Guardian Team has a large number of men who have served as government soldiers, and they will not be as merciful as Zhang Yi for these guys who have seen blood.
As far as Zhang Yi knows, there were once so many idlers from other villages who sneaked into the hatchery at night, it is estimated that other big families want to steal the teacher, Zhang Yi also met on the night he was caught, but the next day, the third uncle actually said that the person was lost.
How many big living people will get lost?
I don't believe it if I killed Zhang Yi!
But since that night, the hatchery patrols have become more intense.....
Therefore, in Zhang Yi's opinion, the secret recipe is just a dispensable thing, and it can even be improved by countless skilled craftsmen because it has been promoted, and it will become a better thing.
In reality, however, it is poverty that has created a different situation.
In the eyes of almost all people in the country, as long as the art is still there, as long as it can be kept, it is equivalent to a long-term job, not only to be able to feed their own generation, but also to live on this skill for future generations.
It is precisely because of this that the promotion in Zhang Yi's heart has become conservative, and it is precisely for this reason that old people in the village such as Wang Lao Wu would rather be tired themselves than let other people help.
"Uncle, I can't think about it!" Hearing Zhang Yi say this, Wang Lao Wu was silent for a moment, and then said respectfully: "It's better to be like this, Uncle asked General Niu to send some people to the kiln, and they are responsible for the transportation and firing of materials, and how about I bring the manual ingredients from Zhuangzi?" ā
It is said that the wisdom of the people represents the basic level of wisdom of society, and Wang Laowu's words undoubtedly made Zhang Yi's eyes shine.
Unexpectedly, Wang Lao Wu actually learned the method of mastering key skills.
That's a big step forward from that.
In fact, this method of operation has been used even in later generations. Because as Zhang Yi said, it is impossible for a few people or even dozens of people to carry out mass production. If you want to ensure efficiency and keep the core technology confidential, then this method is undoubtedly the best way.
And in Zhang Yi's view, the assembly line of later generations is likely to be slowly developed from the core technology of secrecy from a certain point of view.
First of all, the assembly line operation is to divide one thing into several things to make it simpler, so that the technical requirements for each operator are undoubtedly greatly reduced.
In addition, because practice makes perfect, and the same thing is simply repeated, a qualitative change is formed, not only can speed and efficiency be improved, but also because of long-term work, even the defects in the process can be found and improved as a laborer.
And what Wang Lao Wu said about having the people in Zhangjiazhuang be in charge of the ingredients, and letting the other sergeants be in charge of the manufacturing of other processes is undoubtedly a tendency to divide one thing into two things, and this is likely to be the original purpose of creating the assembly line pioneer.
However, in reality, it is definitely not the first time that such a thing that is used for secrecy and requires mass production has happened, such as ironmaking and steelmaking.... In fact, this method is used to keep the technology secret, so Wang Lao Wu's remarks are nothing more than drawing reeds in the same way.
But the speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional, and Zhang Yi instantly thought of whether it could be used to carry out simple assembly operations.
After all, there is really no shortage of manpower now, and almost all of the auxiliary soldiers are nested in the barracks except for the grain and straw on Li Jing's side, and the invisible waste of so much labor obviously makes Zhang Yi see their surplus value.
At that moment, Zhang Yi nodded, clasped his fists with both hands and said sincerely: "I don't know if the general may send some people to burn cement?" ā
Niu Jinda has actually been paying attention to the conversation between Zhang Yi and Wang Lao Wu, and when he heard the meaning of the two of them preparing to retain the core technology, his face only flashed a trace of disappointment, but he did not force Zhang Yi to hand over the secret recipe.
After all, he was also from a poor background, so he could naturally understand Wang Lao Wu's thoughts, and immediately said: "How about sending 500 strong men to cement production?" However, although the war is not tight at the moment, the old man still hopes that you can burn more and build the fortress as soon as possible! ā
The number of five hundred people made Zhang Yi a little disappointed.
Although it seems like a lot, in the era when the means of transportation are almost entirely carried on the shoulder, this manpower is undoubtedly just a drop in the bucket, and the importance of He Shuofang is undoubtedly very important for the Tang Dynasty and even the grassland, thinking of the north gate where the plague is about to break out, and the huge Shuofang City.... Zhang Yi's face immediately became ugly.
Xue Wanqian was the first to notice that Zhang Yi's face was wrong, and immediately said, "Brother Zhang, is five hundred people not enough?" ā
In Xue Wancheng's opinion, although the number of five hundred people is not much, it is definitely a lot. As long as the team of 500 people is well-equipped, it can even raid some small tribes, although the combat power of the auxiliaries is not good, but it is also a large force.
However, Zhang Yi's expression was obviously dissatisfied, so he couldn't help but say this.
"Indeed... It's not enough! Zhang Yi looked at Niu Jinda, and then at Xue Wanyan, and then said embarrassedly: "Although there is no obvious conclusion in the war now, I don't think we can passively act according to the conclusion!" Shuofang is undoubtedly a nail in the coffin to curb the Hetao for our dynasty, and you two should be very clear about its strategic importance! ā
