Chapter 158: Arming
Because the participants were all men, the worship of force did not diminish in the slightest. When Yao Ran talked about the component of the defense armament www.biquge.info, everyone was eager to try it and wanted to participate in it. Or simply want to be the leader of the armed forces.
This candidate does not need to be recommended by Mao Sui, it is directly selected by Yao Ran, this candidate Yao Ran did not need any consideration, and directly selected Yao Shi, for no reason that he is Yao Ran's first follower, and Yao Shi himself is an excellent hunter.
Arranged, armed with weapons and equipment is called armed forces, after the other scattered work was arranged, Yao Ran took four disciples and Yao Shi and five people went straight to the blast furnace camp.
When they arrived at the camp, it was already noon, and after a few people had lunch in the camp, Yao Ran checked the operation of the blast furnace, and when Yao Ran left, because he took almost all the manpower, the output of the blast furnace was directly reduced to one-third, and it was also the production of some simple casting tools.
Now there are only about 40 people burning charcoal near the blast furnace, and more than half of them are women. Responsible for some simple operations. Manual work is done by men. Yao Ran frowned, and let Lang Yan go to the inner city and transfer 20 slaves from Yao Bone.
Yao Ran has always been thinking in his heart, don't leave the iron fighters in Canglong City, but what are you afraid of, none of the eight people who beat iron are left in Canglong City, there is no way Yao Ran selected a few slaves who are honest and obedient and have good health.
Frying iron, forging is not a technical work, can only be regarded as a kind of skilled work, of course, proficiency is required process, the molten iron is cooled and pulled into the shape of a long strip, and then forged, then folded, and then forged.
After teaching for a whole afternoon, only two people were taught, and the other 10 people who were selected were left as apprentices, and the faces of the hesitant barbarians were different from those of Yao Zhai, so for Yao Ran, if there was no special attention, almost all of them were the same face.
In the end, there was no way, Yao Ran thought of a simple and feasible way to do it, that is, to bring a work card, to mark the work performed by the slave, and directly reflect it on the work card, if it is an iron, draw a hammer, record the blacksmith below, and then write the time when he first became a blacksmith.
In this way, both the occupation and the length of service are explained and explained in detail.
In one afternoon, Yao Ran created a Baiduan knife, and the shape of the knife was a bit like the Mo knife in the later period. But the handle in his hand is not as long as the Mo knife.
Yao Ran named it the chopping knife, because the blade is wide and thick, so it is very heavy. A big knife is more than forty pounds.
Yao Ran used suitable wood to remove a handle and installed it with the blade. In this way, a 'horse chopping knife' is made.
At this time, it was already dark, and Lang Mao Yao Hemu had arrived. In front of Yao Ran's tent. Respectfully waited for Yao Ran to go home.
Yao Ran's wife group, of course, followed closely, and saw that the two generals were waiting for him to come back at the door of his tent.
Yao Ran and the three of them talked at night, and after chatting, the three of them became seven people, because Yao Ran's disciples had all eaten, and then Xiao Mumu, who had a heart, reminded everyone that the patriarch was going to give a lecture to Lang Mao tonight.
The four of them got together, and then they ran over, Yao Ran didn't rush people, it was a good thing to want to learn what he wanted to hear, and only by listening more and trying more could he find what he was really good at and what he liked to do.
The seven of them chatted until dawn, from farming to tool iron smelting, medicine planting, animal husbandry, animal husbandry, and so on. Why is it a chat instead of Yao Ran's lecture, because Yao Ran wants more people to speak freely, not to open up new things, but to be able to save themselves and get out.
This night is a very successful example, Yao Ran led the topic in one direction, and then everyone talked nonsense, and after the talk was done, Yao Ran made appropriate corrections. To sum it up.
This kind of teaching method can be read much better by Yao Ran to the retinal system, in fact, this is also due to the fact that Yao Ran really knows the knowledge just mentioned. If you make those, for example, iron and copper. These technical ones, Yao Ran doesn't understand them without cheat sheets.
The last group of men ran to the edge of the warehouse where the blast furnace worked, spread out a few animal skins, and slept on the wood.
The next day, two slaves who had learned to strike iron took a few who couldn't do it, and Yao Ran also followed along to make a finished product for a morning, Yao Ran made a finished product here, and the two who took the lead were a little rusty. It is also a prototype, but they have also bought strength, although the shape is a little out of shape, but the small hammer can be used to change it.
After a whole day's tinkling, Yao Ran took out two finished horse chopping knives. And the two leaders, under the command of Yao Ran, also reluctantly came out of two. These horse chopping knives were all put away by Yao Ran, saying that they would be issued to those people after the team was formed, and others wanted knives, so they had to spend money to buy them when the production was enough.
The money sent out by Yao Ran can only be circulated, the kitchen knife and iron pot, the family sent you a set of each family in the early stage, and if you want it, spend money to buy it. Of course, iron bowls have to be bought with money. Kitchen knives, hammers, shovels, these daily necessities, you used to use stone tools, now you want to use iron tools? It's impossible to give it away for nothing, buy it with money.
Of course, if you are a blast furnace worker, you don't have to spend money, you can use it as you like, but you can't sell it, as long as it is ironware, not within the scope of control, you can use it casually, and you can bring the old one if you want to exchange it for a new one. But if you lose it and still want it, then you're embarrassed, buy it yourself.
It is very easy to make money with ironware, it is easier than selling salt, and as for salt, Yao Ran implements a rationing system. Daily limit per household. Lost registration will not be replaced.
Of course, if you want to spend money to buy it, you can buy it, but the price of salt is deadly expensive, 50 grams of salt is one yuan, and the current per capita income of Yaozhai is about five yuan. Of course, it is not excluded that some captains, and those who have knighthoods, have a lot more income than this average.
With the circulation of these goods, there will naturally be a surprise in life, not suffering from poverty and inequality, those who are lazy or have low ability, low income naturally has the possibility of causing trouble, which requires someone to maintain local security. Mediation of interpersonal disputes.
Then, Yao Zhai or Yao clan is not independent of this land, and other tribes will see the life of the Yao clan, will they be red-eyed, will they come over to fight the autumn wind. Therefore, it is necessary to have a strong arm to protect and defend the interests of this clan and its people.
Then this armed force Yao Ran must be firmly controlled. Therefore, these weapons in the early stage cannot be circulated casually. These are murderous weapons, and compared to bows and arrows, these swords are more lethal. (To be continued.) )
