Chapter 64: As the sun rises
Finally in time for today's update!
The jade craftsman Tan Youtian raised his head cautiously, he looked at the boundless military camp in front of him, and sighed at the huge size of this military camp.
Behind Tan Youtian was his apprentice and his nephew Tan Yong, although he was very cautious, the unbearable smile on Tan Youtian's face had already revealed his excitement.
Being summoned by Zhou Huchen, Tan Youtian felt that he was so lucky, and it could also be said that he was very honored. Who doesn't know Zhou Dashuai in Shanxi now, who doesn't know Zhou Shaoshuai Zhou Huchen, was found by Zhou Shaoshuai to arrange things, that is his Tan Youtian eight lifetimes of virtue, countless people want to sharpen their heads to enter this group, but unfortunately, few people can get close to this Zhou Shaoshuai. This time Tan Youtian was lucky to be called to the barracks, which is a great opportunity, Zhou Shaoshuai is the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, and he Tan Youtian finally has something to eat.
Tan Youtian is a jade craftsman, he thinks that his craftsmanship is not bad, he has also mixed in Taiyuan Mansion before, and he can mix it well. It's a pity that as he gets older, Ye Luo always has to return to his roots, and the elderly Tan Youtian returned to his hometown Datong like this. Tan Youtian's wife has never been angry, and he did not give birth to even a son and a half daughter, and in desperation, Tan Youtian passed on this craft to one of his nephews, Tan Yong.
In this Datong Mansion, jade craftsmen are almost useless, this place is a military town, there are too few rich people, Tan Youtian rarely has the opportunity to show his hand, during this time, he has been sitting and eating nothing. Now, God doesn't seem to be thin on him, and he is quite open-eyed, no, the opportunity has finally come.
In front of him is a huge area surrounded by green bricks, Tan Youtian judged that it should be a hundred acres of gold, and the blue brick wall is surrounded by countless thatched houses, and there are soldiers entering and exiting around the thatched houses, which should be the soldiers' station.
Entering the wall, the face is full of busy figures.
Obviously, this is a construction site, as if it were a closed complex.
Not far ahead, a tall and sturdy young man in a strong suit was silently turning his back to look at the busyness in front of him, and the family member who led Tan Youtian's uncle and nephew here made a gesture to them, and then ran towards the young man.
After the family had spoken a few words to the young man, the young man turned around and came over.
This is also too young, this is the legendary Zhou Shaoshuai?
Tan Youtian couldn't imagine that the legendary huge and incomparable military camp, these tens of thousands of soldiers were all built by this young man, how much money would be needed for this? It's hard to believe how this bearded young man did it. Could it be true that the legend says that all the big businessmen in Shanxi were sacked by this young marshal! Thinking of this, Tan Youtian's legs began to tremble slightly.
"This is my young master, hurry up and see it!" The man spoke:
"The little Tan Youtian, and the villain's nephew Tan Yong have seen the young marshal!" Tan Youtian pulled his nephew, who was still ignorant, and then quickly knelt on the ground:
"No need to be polite, come with me!"
Zhou Huchen did things very simply, and after speaking, he turned around and left.
Out of the huge wall, there is a brick and wood structure house not far from the left, which is Zhou Huchen's office.
A few people entered the house, Zhou Huchen continued his crisp style, and without waiting for Tan Youtian's uncle and nephew to talk nonsense, he directly opened the wooden box in the corner of the room: "Tan Youtian, do you know this thing?" ”
Tan Youtian cautiously stepped forward with small steps, and then looked down: "This is Shui Liuli!" Young marshal, good thing! ”
"Can you use this water glass to make something like a lens? I'm talking about grinding a small piece, and grinding it crystal clear! ”
"That's no problem!" Tan Youtian held his head high: "The villain has done a lifetime of processing jade, this water glass is similar to medicinal jade, and the villain has also processed it, it's easy!" ”
As a jade craftsman who is still a little famous, Tan Youtian has processed a lot of medicinal jade (a kind of ancient glass, used as jewelry), medicinal jade is similar to this water glaze, in general, because of the hardness, medicinal jade is much easier to process than jade, so Tan Youtian is full of confidence.
"That's good, this is the drawing, just according to this size and thickness, process two, look at it, both sides are convex, to be exactly the same, as for the salary, don't worry about it, as long as you work hard, I will hire your uncle and nephew for a long time."
These are two convex lenses with different focal lengths, in fact, ordinary telescopes are very simple to make, that is, the lens with a larger focal length is used as the objective lens, and the smaller one is used as an eyepiece, and then they are fixed in two cylinders of different sizes, as long as they are set together for debugging, the effect of the telescope will be achieved. Zhou Huchen is trying, he also knows that he can use a concave lens, but at present, this is the shiyan stage, he just wants to try it.
For Zhou Huchen; There will be bread, there will be milk, ordinary telescopes are too simple, too high-end telescopes belong to the lofty ambitions, that is unrealistic, now the conditions are limited, ordinary telescopes are enough.
"Little Young Marshal Xie! Xie Shaoshuai's appreciation, you will be satisfied! Tan Youtian, who is an old man, understands that for a person of Zhou Huchen's status, he doesn't need to say too much, as long as he can do it.
For Tan Youtian, this will be a beautiful job, very easy, in fact, Tan Youtian still has a careful thought, he has to work hard, work hard to earn more money, let his nephew see that he has a great future with him, and then anyway, the eldest brother has a lot of sons, and he wants to strive to let this nephew pass over.
―――――――――――――――――
It's already April, and Zhou Huchen's overall jihua is progressing extremely smoothly.
The soldiers have the management and training of those veteran officers who have been in battle for a long time, and the exemplary role of the veterans does not need Zhou Huchen to pay special attention to them at all. What he needs to do now is to formulate various rules and regulations in the army for those generals, let the officers strictly implement them at each level, and then formulate a long-term jihua for training soldiers. Zhou Huchen is actually not so good at army building, but he knows an unchanging concept; What the army needs is strict discipline and training. Only a team of soldiers with strong cohesion will not be afraid of all enemies, in that distant era, someone once raised a red banner and achieved great success, that is Zhou Huchen's example, but also a reference.
As for the building under construction within that huge wall, it was another magnificent jihua of Zhou Huchen, that was the factory building, the factory where all kinds of weapons were made.
Shen Wanquan is a trustworthy person, and of course, he does not dare to be untrustworthy. Soon after Zhou Huchen returned to Datong, the first batch of iron ingots were transported to Datong under the strict supervision of Shen Wanquan and his eldest son Shen Shiyuan, in order to get closer to Zhou Huchen, in order to satisfy Zhou Huchen, Shen Shiyuan, the future head of the Shen family, not only came to deliver the goods in person, but also specially brought Zhou Huchen fifty carefully selected blacksmiths.
The recruitment of troops in Datong Mansion not only strengthened Zhou Huchen's father and son, but also brought a lot of benefits to the people of Datong.
These tens of thousands of people must eat, drink, and live, the discipline of these soldiers is extremely strict, they absolutely dare not rob, nor dare to extort the people, according to Zhou Huchen's military regulations; Soldiers are not allowed to take a stitch from the masses, otherwise, they will be killed.
For the above reasons, in order for soldiers to live, it is impossible for the army to provide everything, and some daily necessities must be bought, so the people have also received a lot of benefits. In fact, the biggest beneficiaries are still those merchants in Datong, this time, the merchants of Datong Mansion can be regarded as making a fortune, and this huge army needs too many materials. Tens of thousands of people needed a huge amount of cloth for their clothes, as well as various materials for making weapons and buildings, which would be ordered from these merchants, and the orders were fat enough to break their heads.
The businessmen are like this, and the people are like this, you bring them benefits and benefits, and you also bring security, and this is the life they want.
In the few months that Zhou Yuji's father and son came to Datong, the reputation of the father and son in Datong Mansion has been very good, and almost everyone praises it, and it has really become a sky.
The update is amazing! For the sake of being indifferent and so hard, please vote for it and give it a collection! 】
