After Princess Wanchun returned to the princess's mansion, she became a lot more silent. Of course, Chen Fei knew that it was impossible to accept this result in a short period of time, and Chen Fei knew that Li Shimin might also know about this situation, but Li Shimin would not cut off Princess Wanchun's princess status without discipline. After all, they have lived together for more than ten years, and they are all brothers and sisters. Perhaps, it was precisely because Li Shimin knew that Princess Wanchun was not his own sister, so he agreed to her choosing her own husband.

However, because of the urgency of time, Chen Fei also took the initiative to devote himself to work. Now Chen Fei is engaged to Princess Wanchun, and he has already met his parents. As for officially getting married, I'm afraid it will take more than a year, because where does Chen Fei have time to solve personal matters now? In the coming year, Chen Fei will be in charge of producing ordnance and will be extremely busy.

"Craftsmen, the emperor has ordered me to supervise the production of ordnance, so I have come to see how you produce ordnance. And the emperor's task has been issued, to produce 300,000 winter clothes in a year, and there are 200,000 pulley crossbows, 10 million arrows, and finally 300,000 horizontal knives and 150,000 spears. As for the armor, we must also do our best to produce it, and we cannot see a reduction in production. Chen Fei said.

Hearing this request, the craftsmen of the ordnance prison immediately began to whimper. With such a large number of tasks, even a layman like Chen Fei knew that it was impossible to complete, how could they, the craftsmen, complete it? When they heard about the mission, they immediately began to complain.

"Chen Langzhong, we really can't help it!" "Chen Langzhong, how can we finish it?" "Yes! Chen Langzhong, don't be so much! ”……

But Chen Fei did not have the slightest weakness, but continued: "This time, the emperor gave a death order. I'm also going to be given a military order, and if I can't do it, I'll have to go home and farm. So, you have to give me some strength, don't drop the chain. ”

"Yang San of the Crossbow Workshop Department, you come out!" Chen Fei said.

Soon, Yang San came over, and Chen Fei asked, "If you want to produce 200,000 pulley crossbows within a year, how long will it take to make them?" I'm talking about ordinary crossbows, not those kinds of excellence. Something that takes years to complete. ”

"Chen Langzhong, if we do our best to produce, the thousands of craftsmen can not complete tens of thousands, and there is still a big gap between 200,000!" Yang San said.

Chen Fei immediately frowned, this is only capable of producing tens of thousands of pulley crossbows, which is still very huge from the entire gap. How is it possible to make up for such a big gap?

"How many craftsmen would it take to make 200,000 crossbows?" Chen Fei asked.

Yang San immediately said, "It takes at least 10,000 people to be able to produce 200,000 bows and crossbows in one year!" ”

", this is simply impossible!" Chen Fei said angrily.

I heard that it would take at least 10,000 people to produce 200,000 crossbows. Where can this Chen Fei get 10,000 craftsmen out. According to the current population of the Tang Dynasty, there are only more than 10 million, and the agricultural population accounts for more than ninety and five. And the rest of the population is about 500,000, and among this 500,000 people, there are people who can work as craftsmen. It's just one or two thousand. But these 20,000 are still distributed in different places, or scattered in different types of work, and many of them have nothing to do with weapon manufacturing, so where did Chen Fei find 10,000 craftsmen for him? I am afraid to give him all the carpenters of the whole country. It's not enough!

Even if he took a step back, Chen Fei gave him all the craftsmen, but did he still have to produce other things? Let's not talk about the 10 million crossbow arrows. And those 300,000 horizontal knives and 100,000 spears, these are to be produced. If you don't produce it, you can't make a difference!

"I'm telling you, if you don't have 10,000 craftsmen, and you can only use so many people, how can we produce so many things?" Chen Fei asked.

That Yang San shook his head helplessly and said, "Chen Langzhong, I really have no choice, please give me advice!" ”

Chen Fei knew that he couldn't count on this guy, and this guy actually put the responsibility on Chen Fei. Everything is for Chen Fei to think of a way, if he doesn't think of a suitable way as soon as possible, which can greatly improve the production level, then I am afraid that he will not be able to complete the task at all. Such a task is not something that ordinary people can complete at all, it is simply a cheat!

"How do you make bows? What is your process? Chen Fei asked.

And Yang San immediately replied: "Do we just let the craftsmen take out the wood by themselves, and then knead the beef tendons into bowstrings, and finally come step by step?" ”

"Don't you have a division of labor? Is one person in charge of the whole process? Chen Fei asked.

"Division of labor? At most, some people are responsible for the bowstrings, while others are responsible for making the crossbows. Yang San asked.

Chen Fei asked again: "Then have you taken apart the parts one by one and divided them to different people to do?" One person does a process and then finally splices it together? ”

"Is that okay? Everyone has their own craftsmanship, if it is assigned to different people, then I am afraid it will not be spliced at all! Yang San said.

Chen Fei suddenly burst into a foul mouth in his heart: "I'll take it, I finally know why you guys are so slow in production efficiency, it turns out that the root is here!" ”

Chen Fei finally knew what this meant, it turned out that each of the ancient craftsmen had their own technical habits, and the things made by each person were different. They don't have a completely uniform standard, and in this absence of standards, everyone makes something different. And this is completely based on experience, they are responsible for the entire process of a crossbow machine, and then only what they make can be spliced together. And once it is separated into someone else's hands, then it will not be able to be spliced together at that time.

Therefore, this is the reason why there was no standardized production in ancient times. There is no unified standard, and the parts produced in this way are also of different precision, so how can they be spliced together? Therefore, only by formulating standards first, and then trying to produce on the assembly line again, can the efficiency of this production be greatly improved. Otherwise, then I'm afraid Chen Fei won't want to make a difference. And if the assembly line production cannot be realized, the production efficiency is surprisingly low, which is simply not something that Chen Fei, a later generation, can tolerate.
