Chapter 20: Heavenly Creation
[The public chapter is sent, please support it!] 】
Zhang Rou thought that everything would be fine if she gathered the ready-made personnel, and she didn't have to worry about anything, so she sent her personal maid Xiao Taohong out as a temporary top post, and she enjoyed life very comfortably.
But God was destined not to let her be idle, and Xiao Taohong grabbed her in a hurry and walked out: "Miss, go to our textile base!" Something big is wrong! ”
"What's going on? Someone making trouble? This is the only possibility that Zhang Rou can think of.
"How can it! You give them money, and give them dividends, just work every day, don't worry about anything, such a good thing, whoever makes trouble is stupid! Without your involvement, the others cleaned him up. ”
"So what else could it be? You've been messing around with Miss Ben for so long, can't you be uneven? ”
"Miss! This time, the slave and maid are really uneven. Did you know? We have gathered thousands of people and thousands of textile machines to build this textile base this time, and the scale is there, but these machines are varied. There are hand-cranked, foot-stepped ones, and even very old spinning pendants, with different raw materials and spindle types, and there is no way to work according to the assembly line you said! Xiao Taohong poured bitter water on Zhang Rouda, recently in order to do things for Miss, her heart was broken, she looked at how relaxed Miss was on weekdays, why did she have a lot of trouble!
"Let's go check it out first!"
The textile machine base is located in the east of the capital about ten miles, along a small river to build, the whole covers an area of nearly 100 acres, divided into raw material warehouse, raw material processing area, textile area and finished product warehouse and other areas.
The road conditions were not good along the way, and Zhang Rou and the maid drove for almost half an hour before coming to this textile base.
"This road needs to be repaired!" Zhang Rou gave the first instruction as soon as she got out of the car, and Xiao Taohong hurriedly took out her notebook and wrote it down.
Maybe Zhang Rou thought things too simple and didn't take this textile base seriously, and Xiao Taohong was basically in charge from beginning to end. Or maybe she felt that she was about to get married, so she should show her face less, so as not to leave too much bad impression on the ministers in the capital.
Anyway, it was her first time in this place.
So, Xiao Taohong led her to start investigating the entire base, and of course there was also an element of invitation.
"Miss, you see that this river is connected to the Yellow River, and it is not far from the Yellow River, when it is time to build a small wharf by the river, it is convenient to transport raw materials and finished products, this is the address selected according to your requirements, do you think it is okay?" It was the first time for Xiao Taohong to handle such a big thing alone, she was both excited and a little worried, and she urgently needed to be affirmed by her own young lady.
Zhang Rou and others stood on the slightly raised hill by the river, with a panoramic view of the entire factory area, and the living area and the various production areas were clearly and well organized, and it could be seen that she had put a lot of effort into it.
"Not bad! It's good to see that you have planned well, and you haven't spent so many years with Miss Ben! Work hard, use more snacks, and you will have to help take care of a lot of business in the future! ”
There are always gains and losses in life, and if you find a husband and become a queen, it is impossible to do what you want as before, at least this palace is not something that can be done casually. She was also forced to train her maid out, fortunately, there was still half a year, and she had helped do a lot of things before, only this time she was allowed to deal with it independently.
When Xiao Taohong heard Miss's compliment, her heart was much more stable, and she said playfully: "Miss Xie's compliment!" You see, these houses around us are used as storerooms, which are more ventilated and not so damp. The upstream part of the river is the living area of the employees, the middle group of houses is the textile factory, and the downstream part is the raw material processing place, such as silk reeling and the like. Didn't you say anything about environmental pollution, slaves and maids understand! Anyway, as you said before, the river water was channeled into the big pond for use, and the used water passed through several large pools before flowing into the river......"
"Well, I see! This is not for anything else, just to let the dirty water we used be clarified and then put back into the river, otherwise the river water will be dirty! In the future, remember to repair a few more sewage pools, so that they can be replaced, so as not to stop work and delay time. Let's go to the textile factory now and see the big problem you mentioned! ”
"Yes, Miss! Come this way, slow down, watch your step! Xiao Taohong helped Zhang Rou and slowly walked down the hillside.
Although it has not officially started yet, the workers have been gathered, and Zhang Rou's arrival has caused a great sensation, especially after knowing that she is now the identity of her own owner, those who have nothing to do follow behind to see the excitement.
Pushing open the door of the factory, you will see a bunch of chaotic machines, although they are different in size and model, but there are roughly two styles, one is foot-pedal, and the other is hand-cranked. Little Peach also has no experience, she thought that the integration of all the machines would be completed if all the machines were put together, but when she tried to run it, she found that there were problems everywhere.
Because there is still such a big difference in everyone's technique, from the reeling to the back weaving, the quality is different. In the past, each of them started from beginning to end by themselves, and they were already very familiar with their own style, and they were at a loss for what to do if they rashly split them into several parts...... In the end, it naturally becomes a chaotic battle.
Zhang Rou carefully inspected the situation of various machines and consulted the opinions of several workers, and she basically figured out the problem.
The rest is how to prescribe the right medicine, she thought quietly for a while, and said to Xiao Taohong: "Originally, the best way to solve this problem was to unify the machine and train the workers in all links, but now it is too late, only use these first, and then gradually solve this problem later." For now, you need to put the various types of looms together and try to let someone who is familiar with them control them. The same is true for silk reeling, on the premise of meeting the demand for textile machines, the silk reeling standards for various types of textile machines are formulated and supplied separately. That's it for now, you're still staring here, come back to me if there's anything! ”
"Yes, Miss! Slaves must work hard and work hard! Little Pink raised her fist to cheer herself on.
"Come on!" Zhang Rou also responded with a fist to Xiao Taohong.
When Zhang Rou returned home, she thought about it and decided to find someone to discuss, so she asked the security guard who escorted Wei Pu and Bao Nimei to run to Bao Mansion and handed Bao Zheng a letter.
Bao Zheng took the letter and entered the palace, and not long after, Zhao Zhen appeared in Zhang Rou's boudoir.
"Honey, what's wrong? There's a husband here! Don't be afraid! Zhao Zhen came in a hurry, and Zhang Rou's letter said to let him come over, but he didn't say anything, he thought something happened to Zhang Rou.
"My husband is here! You're doing this pretty fast! I thought you'd have to come later? Zhang Rou put down the pen, got up from the desk, and pulled Zhao Zhen to sit down in the position he had just placed.
"Isn't my husband in a hurry, I thought something was wrong with you, I came over first without reading the twists and turns today, what the hell is going on...... Belch! Zhao Zhen picked up the teacup on the table, poured it into his stomach, and burped Meimei.
Zhang Rou stretched out her finger and tapped his forehead, and said coquettishly: "Drink slowly!" When you are an emperor, pay attention to your image! ”
"That's not what you're doing! It's enough to pack it outside for a day, and it's not enough to relax when you go home! Zhao Zhen grabbed his wife's finger and kissed it, it is said that he is an old husband and wife, but now he is still very excited every tryst, mainly because his appearance is different from the original, he always feels like he is **.
"You're still reasonable!" Zhang Rou complained on her lips, but she was happy in her heart: "Husband, this time I called you over, or the last time you said about the problem of the textile factory." According to the original idea of centralized assembly operations, I let Xiao Taohong be responsible. She found that there was a serious problem, and although I thought of a compromise to take it for the time being, it was not a long-term solution......
Zhao Zhen listened to his wife's description, and nodded in agreement: "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"That's what I think, don't you have a royal research institute, you ask them to improve the current textile equipment, unify the specifications, and then slowly replace the old equipment. Husband, what do you think? ”
"That's it!" Zhao Zhen said disdainfully: "I don't need them at all, I still remember your husband in my head!" Do you remember the book "Heavenly Creations"? ”
"Uh-huh! I remember you would buy it when you were still in college, and the first money you earned on a part-time job was to buy this book and buy me a pair of high heels, but you spent all the money at once, as if you were still reading it when we went on a trip and got married...... Why are you mentioning it? ”
"Because you have everything you want in mind, just use it directly!"
"Husband, isn't it! Do you remember such a thick book? Zhang Rou knew that Zhao Zhen had the ability to never forget, but this was an exaggeration, she couldn't believe that he could remember a book as thick as a dictionary, not to mention that more than ten years have passed now.
"It's impossible to say that I remember everything, but most of them still remember, at least I still have some impressions. This book is a little thicker, but I've always liked it and read it a lot. This is to say that people's hearts are doing tricks, always like to remember the glory of the past, our era because of some well-known reasons, the development of science and technology in our Celestial Dynasty is almost all taking the road of copycats. But you say that I, who studied science and engineering, always have some confusion in my heart, why do we have to learn everything, hundreds of years ago, our nation was still leading the world!
The book "Heavenly Creations" compiled by Song Yingxing, a scientist in the late Ming Dynasty, can be said to be a systematic summary of various technologies in ancient China, constituting a relatively complete encyclopedia of science and technology. It includes agriculture, handicrafts, and industry - production techniques such as machinery, bricks, ceramics, sulfur, candles, paper, weapons, gunpowder, textiles, dyeing, salt making, coal mining, oil extraction, etc. Machinery, in particular, is described in detail. It has been translated into Japanese, English, French, German and other languages, and has been called "the encyclopedia of Chinese crafts in the 17th century" by foreign scholars.
The only pity is that this scientific masterpiece was born in a rather embarrassing era, and before it even had time to shine in China, it was already a pearl and almost drowned in the long river of history, and finally it was preserved abroad...... Alas! ”
"Alright! Don't be sad! Aren't we back now, why don't you just let it shine! Zhang Rou hugged Zhao Zhen's head and comforted.
"My wife is right, let's slowly make up for the previous regrets. To be honest, I've been a little too anxious since I crossed over, and I've always wanted to play high, and I've always been aiming for the technological level of our time. But the reality is not so easy, and the cultivation of talents is not allowed, and the textbooks I use now are still intercepted from our elementary and junior high schools and a small number of high school courses, and it may take ten years to see the results of education. ”
"Ten years is ten years! Anyway, we are still so young, we can afford to wait, as long as we lay a good foundation, there will be no problem. When the time comes, I will give you sons and let them continue your path...... Wow, what are you doing! Hooligans! Zhang Rou blushed and pushed Zhao Zhen away.
"Oh ho ho ho ...... Wife, didn't you say you had a baby! Zhao Zhen looked at the small piece of wet in front of Zhang Rou's chest, and smiled evilly with saliva.
Zhang Rou covered her chest and gave him a blank look: "Little improper!" People are down to business! You chirped crookedly for a long time and didn't come up with a specific solution. ”
"Hey, it's not easy, I'll draw the drawings as soon as possible, and you can find a few carpentry workshops to order. It's really not okay, you can open your own equipment workshop, anyway, when I restore "Heavenly Creation", there are still a lot of things waiting to be improved, and some are work. Wife, what do you think? ”
