The eldest grandson said four words, but the meaning was really not small. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

These four words signify a change in the way of industrial production under the supervision of Changsun Tang - the beginning of assembly line operation and standardization.

Fortunately, the logistics battalion of the army often repaired some damaged weapons, and this coal was also carried a lot.

The eldest grandson re-divided the labor of the logistics battalion responsible for repairing weapons, and one person was responsible for one process, and a simple assembly line was formed.

But the critical issue has not yet been resolved.

The efficiency of assembly line operation is very high, but there must be a premise: unified standards.

If what is made by A and what is made by B are not at all matched, there is no way to talk about this assembly line.

This reminded the eldest grandson of one of Qin Shi Huang's achievements: the unification of weights and measures.

But many times history turns back. The Qin army used bronze weapons, the god of war, and the six kingdoms of Shandong that used iron weapons, which was considered one; Qin Shi Huang's unified weighing instruments were also chaotic; Wait a minute. ……

The most amazing thing is that the crossbow used by the Qin army has begun to use modularization and standardized manufacturing, but now this standardization has disappeared.

Changsun Tang casually picked up two corner rulers in the logistics camp, and miraculously found that the error reached one-tenth, no wonder the things made couldn't even be exchanged.

"Hou Xian, as the ordnance superintendent's ordnance order, is the situation of your ordnance superintendent like this?" The eldest grandson wanted to know what it was like to represent the most skilled weapons supervisor in this era.

"Oh, this one, I guess it's pretty much the same." Hou Xian was a little embarrassed.

"You don't even know this? What do you do? "The eldest grandson showed no mercy.

"That's right, Master Hou." Hou Xian paused. "There are two kinds of craftsmen in this armory prison, one is a master and the other is an apprentice, both of whom learn in the form of master and apprentice."

"It's good to bring the old with the new, but what does it have to do with unqualified parts?" The eldest grandson was a little puzzled.

"The main task of our ordnance supervisor is to divide the tasks among them, how much can a pair of masters and apprentices or a master do." Hou Xian was already sweating profusely.

"Are you saying that if you make a gear, there are only a limited number of people from the iron to the final shape?" The eldest grandson asked.

"That's pretty much it." Hou Xian took advantage of the eldest grandson's thinking to secretly wipe his sweat.

"Why? Or what are the benefits of doing so? The eldest grandson did not speak rashly. It's easy to get slapped in the face if you make a rash decision without knowing the truth of the matter.

"That's right, you can monitor the quality of the products they produce, and if there is a problem, you can find them according to the map." In fact, according to the strict Qin law, standardization is not too much of a problem, but it is basically impossible to do so in later generations, which has led to the loss of standardization, an efficiency multiplier for industrial production.

"I see." Changsun Tang was silent, if there is no way to solve the problem of product quality, the rash introduction of this standardization will be counterproductive.

This was not the Qin Dynasty, and it was impossible to adopt the harsh punishment mechanisms and measures such as Lian Sitting.

However, the immediate problem also needs to be solved, and it is impossible for the gears and other relatively precise parts to be widely used on a large scale without solving them.

"Let's not talk about this first, so let's collect everyone's rulers first, let's make a standard ruler first, and then use this ruler as a benchmark to make a ruler that can be widely used, what do you think?" Although the eldest grandson is asking, the meaning is self-evident.

"Is that any good?" Duan Zan was a little puzzled, just now looking at what Hou Xian said after the eldest grandson, he couldn't help but interject.

"That's right, if we use the same ruler, then if the things made are unified in specifications, every part that comes out of this way is consistent, and if the part is broken, it can be replaced directly." The eldest grandson had no way to get angry with Duan Zhan.

"Oh, you seem to be very powerful, but I don't understand." Duan Zan is an honest baby, but what he means by saying this at this time is that you need to convince every craftsman here, at least the majority.

Changsun Tang picked up a broken crossbow machine, removed the badly worn pinion from above, and said: "If our parts are the same, we only need to replace this part, but if it is not the same size, then the problem will come out, this spacing cannot be adjusted, so this crossbow will be scrapped." ”

"I understand what Master Hou means. I'm in charge of promoting it. After all, Hou Xian was a technician who had been immersed in this Tao for a long time, and the benefits of doing so soon understood.

"I'll leave it to you." As the ruling class, Changsun Tang really has no interest in doing these things that others can do with just one sentence, although his mouth is almost worn out, but some people understand it.

"Yes." Hou Xian only has two simple words.

"That's right, Hou Xian. Before the war, the Hou Ye said that the firing mechanism of the crossbow machine... Gears, right? Duan Zan suddenly said.

"Yes, little grandfather." Hou Xian didn't understand what Duan Zan meant.

"Brush oil on this gear, how effective is it?" Duan Zan asked.

"It's very good, I laughed a lot when I tasted the gear bite yes, and the wear was a lot less. In the last battle, the eighty bed crossbows were fired on average thirteen times each, and seventeen were worn, and this time they were fired sixteen times, but only nine were worn. As soon as Hou Xian came, he was responsible for the repair of the crossbow in the logistics camp.

"You mean it works well?" Duan Zan heard the meaning, but the data made him a little dizzy.

"That's right, little grandpa. This time with such a strong fire, even if there is no last one left, it should be. Hou Xian put it another way.

"So that's the case, this small change can have such a big effect!" Duan Zan was amazed.

It is only now that the eldest grandson understands that this piece of Chan is putting his credit on the table, and it can be regarded as helping him establish his authority.

In the following days, the army methodically marched along the vast lake towards the royal city of Fuqi City in Tuyuhun. The Tang army marched unhurriedly, and went down to the village for thirty miles every day.

The eldest grandson specially applied to Duan Zhixuan for a batch of horses and carriages for the logistics battalion, and the craftsmen of these logistics battalions have always been the lowest-status existence in the army. The eldest grandson let them rest in the carriage during the day, and when it was time to set up camp, they began to work. The effect is surprisingly good, and in such an environment, standardization has been basically achieved. (To be continued.) )
