On the fifth day of the first lunar month, it was a cloudy and cloudy day, and the weather was very cold.

On this day, Hongniwan ushered in a lively day again, more than 300 people gathered on the big flat of Hongniwan, only to see the four big characters on the stage: commendation party, most of the people in the audience are sitting in rows and neatly on the low stools, only the dozens of people on the far right are sitting sparsely, there is no order at all.

The stage is decorated with four large red lanterns, and the right side of the stage is filled with various musical instruments, and the festive colors are very strong.

Zhu Xuanqing and Zhu Xuanbai sat in the audience, surrounded by Yi Bojun, Yu Shiman, and Xiao Liang, among which Zhu Xuanbai and Yi Bojun were well-informed, but they didn't know what "party" meant, and the word "commendation" was interpreted by people who understood, and everyone understood what was going on, and several people were guessing who would be commended.

Yi Bojun opened his mouth and said:

"Two Brother Zhu, the two of you should be among the commendations, Brother Xuanqing has a meritorious role in burning glass, Brother Xuanbai presided over the queue training, and it is said that he also burned glazed tiles. The skills of the two Zhu brothers really made the younger brother admire. ”

Zhu Xuanqing pointed to Kang Depei on the stage and said:

"Firing glass, I just obey orders, do some hard work, I take care of the kiln, I don't know the formula, nor do I know how to make the crucible that can withstand high temperatures.

Of course, the trade secret of fired glass cannot be casually displayed, and in view of the fact that the reliability of this group of newly recruited reformers is still very suspicious, Mao Geng naturally wants to control the spread of technical secrets. Soda ash is used to fire glass, but soda ash cannot be found at this time, so it has to be replaced by plant ash, the main component of plant ash is potassium carbonate, which can also be used to burn glass, but the process of preparing potassium carbonate by adding water to filter and recrystallize plant ash is not placed in Youxi, but in Baixi, which is operated by people under the command of Tan Wangdi. The making of zuò crucible is also a secret that is not passed on, and it is also placed in Baixi. Zhu Xuanbai, who is responsible for firing glass, is only responsible for the firing process, and does not know more mysteries about glass. In Youxi, the crushing and grinding of quartz sand and the crushing and grinding of auxiliary materials are a group of people, and the ingredients are a group of people, including Zhu Xuanqing, a group of people who are responsible for firing glass, and a group of people who are pouring molds, all under the command of Kang Depei, division of labor and cooperation, until a piece of glass is produced. Nowadays, although the glass has greatly improved, it still has a little bit of blue, which is the best glass. Zhu Xuanqing thought that his contribution was limited and did not think that he should be commended.

Zhu Xuanbai smiled:

"Brother Yi doesn't have to be too humble, I heard that Brother Yi is doing well on the trial lathe, and legend has it that a piece of iron has arrived in Brother Yi's hand, just like a lump of mud, and he wants to knead it into whatever shape he wants, so Brother Yi must be among the commendations today. I heard that the prize money for the first prize is 30 yuan, which is a lot of money! ”

Yi Bojun is now not only proficient in operating the lathe, but also has three apprentices, but in terms of turning copper lead screw nuts, Yi Bojun still has to operate.

Don't talk about the first prize, Yi Bojun thinks it's good to be able to win a third prize, his monthly salary in January is only three times, and the third prize also has ten dollars, which is enough for the twenty-year-old Yi Bojun, Yi Bojun has never seen thirty dollars in his life, thirty times! That's a lot of money. Yi Bojun shook his head and said with a smile:

"Brother Zhu's statement is too exaggerated, do you think dealing with iron is as simple as you pinching mud! My ability is not worth boasting about, I tell you, the lathe is wonderful, it starts to rotate when you pull it, it starts to move automatically when you pull it, and the steel turning tool is amazing, how can I compare to Tan Xiaochun who made the lathe! ”

When it comes to Tan Xiaochun, everyone knows that he is the most capable disciple under Mao Geng, and in Xiao Liang's eyes, Tan Xiaochun is his idol. Xiao Liang's dream is to be as capable as Tan Xiaochun, no! Even if he can have Tan Xiaochun's two or three costs, Xiao Liang feels that he is very remarkable. But it's a pity that I'm 108,000 miles away from others. Tan Xiaochun admired it, and couldn't help but say:

"I heard that Mr. Mao's top ten disciples, all of them have a strong ability, even the female disciple surnamed Tan, it is said that she has her credit for making the time watch, the time watch is such a wonderful thing, I don't want to make the zuò, I don't know how many of you masters, anyway, I can't even touch the door."

Zhu Xuanbai looked at Xiao Liang's virtue and immediately refuted:

"That's because Mr. Mao is really smart, and I know it deeply. Mr. Mao even knew how to glaze our porcelain, and with his slight guidance, I fired the glazed tiles. It is said that the glazing matter, I used to glaze and paint, only know it, I don't know why, but after Mr. Mao's guidance, now I can draw inferences. I think Supervisor Kang has only learned a little bit of Mr. Mao's skin, he used to study, but he is just a low-end scholar, and where can he know how to burn glass! Of course, it was Mr. Mao who sold the face of his grandfather Kang Lao, which taught him, what is the great thing! I don't know if Mr. Mao still wants to accept disciples, if he can become Mr. Mao's disciple, it will be the creation of this life. ”

In fact, Mao Geng also knows that the glaze is to use the characteristics of lead to reduce the melting point of silica, after the lead glaze, it can be fired into glaze below 1ooo degrees, speaking of which the glazed tiles are not fired more than the technology of Tang Sancai, but the Tang people did not open the glazed tile market, although there were glazed tiles sporadically used for roof decoration in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but the Tang and Song dynasties were not particular enough about the roof tiles, and they did not feel that the roof tiles should be glazed, and the terracotta tiles should be glazed, until the palace of the Yuan Dynasty did not use glazed tiles on a large scale.

Mao Geng was encouraged by Chen Liang, so he asked Zhu Xuanbai to try to burn glazed tiles, but Mao Geng has not been very optimistic about the market of glazed tiles, Mao Geng felt that it was not easy to let Xiaozong, the thrifty emperor, accept glazed tiles, if the palace does not use glazed tiles, can Chen Liang find other customers who dare to use glazed tiles!

Therefore, although the glazed tiles were fired, the output was very limited, and it was only limited to meet the construction of the model house.

Zhu Xuanbai felt that Kang Depei had just read a few more books than himself, and he seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but Mao Geng took care of Kang Lao's face, so he accepted Kang Depei as a disciple, not only to teach the craft carefully, but also to entrust him with important tasks. But Zhu Xuanbai was a little unconvinced by Kang Depei, so he took Kang Depei's clumsy expression in the queue training, Zhu Xuanbai felt that if he wanted to become Mao Geng's disciple, he must be much stronger than Kang Depei.

Yu Shiman listened on the side, he was quite self-aware, and he didn't expect to be Mao Geng's disciple at all, but he was very envious of the Zhu brothers and Yi Bojun, the three of them are all celebrities here, even Xiao Liang had an idea on the Bowa system, and was praised by Mao Geng, only he had achieved nothing, and Yu Shiman felt frustrated in his heart.

Yu Shiman said in an envious tone:

"Several brothers have made achievements here in a short period of time, and Brother Xiao has also been praised by Mr. Mao, which makes the younger brother envious. Compared to you, my little brother is really ashamed! ”

Different from the Zhu brothers, Yi Bojun and Xiao Liang, Yu Shiman was recruited in the second batch, after the first batch of 58 people were recruited, and later when the West China Construction Company recruited people, Mao Geng took the opportunity to recruit again, and Yu Shiman was one of the second batch of 50 people.

Hearing Yu Shiman's words, Xiao Liang could only smile bitterly, although he had come up with an idea on making Zuò Bowa, but in the end it was Mr. Mao who found a feasible way, and he was not much better than Yu Shiman.

At this time, a burst of gongs and drums sounded, and several people immediately realized that it was about to start, no one had experienced this commendation party, but they wanted to see what the name was, but since the last time Mao Geng performed on the balloon, everyone thought that today would be very exciting.

Mao Geng, Chen Liang and Wen Yuan sat in the middle of the stage, and Xiang Yixuan and Qu Wengu sat on the stage, in addition to the specially invited Fuguo Railway, Su Zhidao and Dun Erbao, representatives of the three families were present, in addition to Zhang Haisan, who was an official representative.

Today, Zhang Haisan is just an official representative, so the host of this commendation party has become Wen Yuan, in addition to the ten disciples of the Mao family, and a total of one hundred and eight people recruited by Mao Geng twice, as well as one hundred and fifty people newly recruited by Huaxi Construction Company, plus fifty people sent by Qu Jiatong to participate, these fifty people belong to the first and second branches of Huaxi Construction Company and Huaxi Brick Factory, and a bunch of people sitting on the right side are the representatives of Qu Jiatong.

The expression of Qu Jiatong's group of people made Chen Liang very dissatisfied, but it was inconvenient for Xiang Yixuan and Qu Wengu to be sitting, but Xiang Qu and the others felt that there was no need to make the atmosphere solemn during the New Year, and they didn't care.

Today's commendation party, which should be held before the year in the future, is the year-end routine commendation party of each company, which is nothing more than a little material and spiritual encouragement, and then a group of people have fun to their heart's content, and it is done. However, unfortunately he was injured, so he had to postpone the matter until the next year. Looking at the battle of more than 300 people in the audience, Mao Gengxin said that his subordinates have a group of people in the end, but this group of people is uneven, and how big things can be done, I really don't dare to think about it, but with this group of people, at least it is not worrying to be a rich man in the Great Song Dynasty.

Next is the procedure that Mao Geng is familiar with anymore, and Wen Yuan is making a summary report just like later generations. What Wen Yuan said is nothing more than impressive performance, gratifying prospects, etc., to put it bluntly, it is bragging, especially blowing the future to the sky, so that the people in the audience will dream after listening to it.

However, from an objective point of view, the outlook is indeed exciting. As long as you look at your income in the past six months, you feel that it is good to return to the era of the Great Song Dynasty, and in three or five years, maybe you will become a rich person in the Great Song Dynasty -- not a supplement.

However, so far, their income basically comes from the joint venture, and the income of the three joint ventures of Fu, Su and Dun accounts for the main part, which has been as much as 13,000 guan, and Qu Jiatong has also shared more than 5,000 guan, but this time spent money like running water, built a base, and went on the project, and except for pencils and tiles, all other projects have not yet reached the income period, of course, the next step is the turn of the watch to continuously absorb gold.

After Wen Yuan finished speaking, the people in the audience were very encouraged, it should be said that the people who came to Hongniwan today felt a sense of happiness, among which Mao Geng's descendants 1o8 people reached 3 times a month, and the festival fee was paid before the festival, and the shed where they lived was all covered with cement powa, and most of the returning guests who came with them at this moment are still living in the thatched hut, for this group of people from a foreign land, this condition is already quite superior. The 153 newly recruited reformed people of the West China Construction Company, although they only have two monthly salaries for the time being, they are only queue training every day, and they can get two times before they build a house, which is also an extremely rare treatment. As for the people in Qu Jiatong, they can get four yuan a month if they are the poorest, while the people in the first and second branches of Huaxi Construction get even more.

After Wen Yuan sensationalized, he immediately entered the first **, that is, commendation. Mao Geng gave this opportunity to the celebrity Chen Liang, just like what film festival in later generations invited celebrities to announce awards, Chen Liang is a very reliable celebrity in the Great Song Dynasty, and he announced the list, which should better reflect an honor.

Xiao Liang was in the audience, looking at Chen Liang, a celebrity who was announcing the list of commendations on the platform, and after Chen Liang finished reading the first prize winner, when he read the second prize winner, Xiao Liang actually heard Chen Liang read out his name, this time Xiao Liang couldn't even believe his ears, and was a little stunned for a while, until Yu Shiman reminded:

"Oh, Brother Xiao, congratulations! What are you still doing? Go on stage to receive the award. ”

Xiao Liang reacted at this time, and hurriedly ran to the stage and stood in the ranks of the prize winners.

When it came time to present the awards, Xiao Liang was overjoyed again, because the prize money had doubled. Unlike the rumors that the first prize is only 30, the first prize is 60, but there are only two first prizes, one is Tan Xiaochun, and the other is Zhu Xuanqing. There are a total of eight second prizes like myself, and the second prize is 30 times. There are ten third prizes in the back, Kang Depei and Zhu Xuanbai are also third prizes, and there are also Qu Jiatong people in the third prize, and the prize money for the third prize is fifteen times.

When Mao Geng walked in front of Xiao Liang, he gave a red envelope with a bonus, and said:

"Xiao Liang, this is because of your contribution to the cement powa, and I specially give the second prize. Thank you for contributing! ”

Xiao Liang's mind hadn't turned around for a while, he was a little frightened, and muttered in his mouth:

"This, that, a prize! The little ones can't afford it! Can't afford it! ”

In Xiao Liang's heart, there was really a feeling of being unworthy at this time.

Xiao Liang was originally a craftsman, so he was naturally assigned to make Zuò bamboo fiber cement Powa, but the handmade Zuò bamboo fiber cement Powa encountered problems with Bowa molds, so the output has been limited. A corrugated mold can only produce a piece of cement powa, and it takes at least two days to wait for the initial hardening of the cement pow to demold, which means that it takes two days for a powa mold to make a piece of powa. Even if there are 50 corrugated molds, it takes 2 days to produce 50 pieces, which is of course unbearable.

Later generations of handmade asbestos tiles, a corrugated mold can stack 30 pieces of asbestos tiles, but there is a condition, that is, plastic film must be used.

When hand-made zuò asbestos tile, first spread a layer of plastic film on the platform, and then spread the fiber and cement slurry on the plastic film, smooth with an iron trowel, the asbestos tile blank at this time is a flat plate with a thickness of 6~1o mm, and so the blank is slightly dry, the blank is moved to the corrugated mold, and then the blank becomes a corrugated tile, and the second piece is concocted in the same way, and then stacked on the first piece of asbestos tile, which is also naturally formed into a waile. In this way, a single wave mold can produce 30 pieces of Powa. This is the wonderful use of plastic film in the production of zuò asbestos tiles.

But this was in the Great Song Dynasty, and in later generations, the agricultural plastic film that was too cheap to be cheaper could not be cheaper, and there was not even a shadow at this time. Mao Geng once thought of using linen cloth to realize the function of plastic film in later generations, but the cost was too high to bear.

Mao Geng had no choice but to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and as a last resort, Mao Geng had no choice but to stir his mind and let everyone come up with ideas. Xiao Liang, who had been a carpenter, immediately thought of the slices he was familiar with, or slices, but after trying, the effect was too poor, the slices were not as soft as plastic films, and the formability was very poor, so Xiao Liang's proposed method failed.

But Mao Geng immediately thought of a countermeasure, although the slices do not meet the requirements, but the high-end bamboo mats of later generations can just meet the requirements, the high-grade bamboo mats of later generations are not the kind of bamboo mats made of slices, but a bamboo mat arranged one by one and then strung with a thread, along the vertical direction of the bamboo can be bent arbitrarily, just to meet the requirements of wave formation.

Xiao Liang made a bamboo mat dedicated to Powa according to this, and applied a layer of wax, which is really easy to use, and can be reused. Xiao Liang thought that this was not his own credit at all, but today Mr. Mao counted the credit on his own head, and Xiao Liang naturally felt that he did not dare to take it. But Mao Geng then smiled and went to give the next award.

Xiao Liang's heart was extremely grateful, but people were stunned all the time, as if he was greedy for heaven, and he only felt that many people were laughing at him.

Xiao Liang followed the other winners off the stage in a daze, and sat down in a daze, even ignoring the congratulations of others.

followed by a song and dance performance, and the specially invited song and dance team performed for a while, and Xiao Liang was still thinking about the award just now.

At this time, the people in the audience began to cheer enthusiastically again, and Xiao Liang reacted from his stunned state.

There was a strange scene on the stage, Chen Liang was playing the piano, and Mao Geng was singing:

The sea laughed, surging on both sides of the strait

The ups and downs follow the waves, only remember the present day

The sky is smiling, and the tide is in the world

God knows who loses and who wins

The rivers and mountains are smiling, and the smoke and rain are far away

The waves are raging, and the red world knows how much

The breeze laughed, but it was lonely

The pride is still left, and the evening photos are shining
