February 1026 in the steam calendar.

A carriage with fifty-seven red and blue gems on its crown slowly stopped at the entrance of the Toulon factory. The fifty-seven gemstones represent the fifty-seven high-ranking professionals in the history of the family.

The Lantao family, the dukes of the Oka Empire, are inherited as fortresses and authorities. Blue gems for fortresses, red gems for authority.

The contemporary Grand Duke of Lantao, whose face is only thirty years old, is actually seventy-four years old, and now he has the authority of a high-ranking profession. Behind the Grand Duke were six median professionals. Four of them are his personal knights, while the other two are mechanical controllers. They marched out of the carriage. And three meters in front of them. The release of the air flow technique (air cannon) blows the steps of the road clean.

The two mechanical controllers are from two earl families, and these two belong to the Imperial Navy faction

The two mechanical controllers, who had extensive experience in naval ordnance manufacturing, had concluded that although the steam turbines in the port of Toulon were still slightly flawed (after all, they were made according to the information, and there was no hand-to-hand strap), they had mastered the relevant technical essentials as a whole.

These technical flaws can be eliminated in two ways

1: By a skilled mechanical controller, these technical defects can be pointed out in production, which is the fastest way to solve them.

2: After it can be delivered to the army, it can be solved through the use of the army and feedback for more than ten years.

In the 21st century on earth, these flaws represent an absolute generational difference of more than ten years. But in this world, in the thousand-year-old steam era, more than ten years of testing time does not mean anything, and the wave wheel family of St. Sauc is stuck in this series of technical bottlenecks.

The Oka Empire, a country with a much higher degree of industrialization than St. Sauce,

Institutionally, it was a constitutional monarchy, and in the Oka Empire, the system of large lords sub-feudal systems, which seriously hindered the rights of the industrial class, no longer existed, and the emperor of the Oka Empire was unable to grant rights to the families in the country by his own will

In order to ensure the advantages between more than a dozen large families, they are very careful in the industrial field. The old nobles like the Imperial Garden family of Saint Sauk, who relied on the emperor's power and feudal system to survive, did not exist in Oka, and these old nobles were already declining nobles in the Oka Empire.

In the entire Western Continent, the comprehensive national strength of the Oka Empire is extremely strong. If you go head-to-head, you can beat any country. But the country suffers from a serious imperial disease, that is, after a serious hit in the Eastern Continent, the central authority of the empire is not enough to bridge the differences between the various political factions.

In diplomacy, all kinds of quick success and quick gains are either resorting to tricks or directly relying on national strength to be reckless. And the domestic ones are even more infighting with each other.

For example, the mechanic is a resource that belongs to the category of competition between land and sea

The army is robbing mechanics to make guns and form steam armored units. The Navy is robbing a heavy artillery battleship made by a mechanic.

The conflict between land and sea was planted four hundred years ago, when the Oka Empire was at its strongest.

Three hundred years ago, when the domestic contradictions in the Oka Empire were at their worst, there were several major conflicts between the sea and land over the resources of iron and steel and coal mines, and for the grabbing of mechanics and mechanical controllers. During the conflict, the knights were very restrained and did not use their hot weapons, but struck each other fiercely with their axes and heavy swords, which were bloody.

Now there is a lot more civilization, but the fighting in the parliament is just a stream of ink

#

The purpose of the Duke of Lantao's pure business: to instruct the mechanical production of the factories in the port of Toulon, was to appease the young controller who had arrived in the Oka Empire and make him loyal. - In most cases, this is something that any side of the Oka Empire can do, and a thirteen-year-old is easy to control. Now on the street, you can turn a few with toys and candy.

Duke Lantao's purpose here, half public and half private: to be sure to determine the position of Bing in the shipyard and naval gun casting industry required by the Imperial Navy before the army bastards rushed over.

Duke Lantao's purely private purpose: marriage, no family will dislike inheritance. The more inheritance, the better, where does the inheritance come from? On this continent, the rise of the new aristocratic family is also by marrying the family members of the old aristocracy who are in economic decline, and obtaining inheritance.

#

After walking into the Toulon shipyard, the Duke of Lantao looked over, and the whole factory was neat and tidy. Workers work in different areas, and each area is connected. When one area is done, the next area is right next to it.

Although the steam roared, it was orderly. Although the duke did not understand, he nodded slightly to the order. Behind him, the mechanical controller said, "The process assignment has been carried out here." ”

Duke Lantao turned around and asked, "Count Boda, what did you just say?" ”

Duke Boda said: "Lord Duke, the mechanical controller works in the factory, and in order to facilitate control, the production space and production order of the entire factory are often organized. The entire production process forms a clear line in the factory space. If there is a defective product, the machine controller will immediately and quickly follow this clear line to find the problem there. This principle is the same as the structure of the army, soldiers, non-commissioned officers, colonels, generals, the structure is clear, and if there is a problem in that part of the link, it can be quickly found. ”

Su Cheng, another mechanical controller, added: "The order and regulations here are equivalent to us seeing the appearance of another army. This one here, the mechanic's family has a very deep heritage,"

Sixty meters away, separated by three walls

Bing Nucleus sitting in the multi-legged mechanical brachiopod mechanical equipment

Binghe held a red paper mixed with a paintboard and placed it under the light. Said to a heat treatment worker: "Look at it, this link, heat treatment for 30 seconds, is this color, the color under the illumination of four lights." That's pretty much it. Keep in mind that there will be patches of oxidized markings on it. Now on, let's start the timer"

The crimson metal fell into the processing platform, and the workers processed them one by one according to the standards, explaining the characteristics one by one, and pointing at them to see the features.

#

Bing's observation of materials is not limited to the eyes, but for the ordinary workers here, when they grasp the production, they are limited to the eyes and ears, and the skin's perception of temperature.

In order to ensure that the processing is carried out, Binghe reminds workers to change when to pay attention to when to see with their eyes, listen with their ears, and pay attention to feel the heat wave with their palms.

In fact, this is what the factory workers on the earth did, and in the twentieth century, the social changes on the earth made the workers very organized. Workers on the planet control production through high-frequency communication under the same standards organization. It also has a strong grasp of every detail of the entire production process.

But the workers of this world are not so well organized. In other words, the mechanic is super capable, and the machine controller is all-powerful. The efficiency of grasping the entire production is too high. There is no need to form such a strong workers' organization. When the strong contract everything, the weak often subconsciously think that they don't have to do it.

#

Binghe, who has a lively personality, has established authority in the factory with technology in this month, but has not created any estrangement between the noble and the low. In the public cafeteria in front of everyone, you can eat without any image. He doesn't see any aristocratic temper, he seems to be simple-minded, and he doesn't calculate anyone. (In fact, there is no need to speculate on people's hearts now)

Binghe occasionally makes a small mistake in production, but every time he makes a mistake, he will take out a small notebook to record. Then we will record the mistakes together with everyone on the factory board. At the same time, it is also secretly vigilant that the atmosphere of this factory is not oppressive, but it maintains healthy competition.

The Toulon factory is disciplined, but fair at all times. Bingnu is involved in every link, and they all strive to stand in the perspective of non-mechanics, so that the people in the link can stand alone.

It can be said that this factory, after Binghe left, was still able to produce qualified products. Because Binghe strives to replicate the production model according to the model of the earth.

The plant may also be in operation for a few years after Binghe leaves, but problems may arise after a few years.

Once the nuclear is gone, when there is no mechanical controller to tell the worker the essentials of attention. In essence, skilled and experienced workers in every link become irreplaceable.

If it is replaced by other nobles to manage, due to the natural status hierarchy of this society. Let the workers have a sense of existential crisis of the inferior under the hierarchy gap.

Then these workers will begin to emphasize their importance in this industrial sector, consciously or unconsciously. will cherish the technical broom of the link. New workers will not be taught. Attempts to monopolize occupations.

(The last life lived into the 22nd century, and the concept of equality is engraved in the bones.) And this concept of equality, which has been cultivated by the global society after several wars, is a key element in the organization of human society. ）

If Binghe leaves ten years later, there will inevitably be problems in this management link. - This is not the Earth that has undergone several socio-ideological transformations. Thousands of years of steam have developed to the present, and the role of mechanics and machine controllers in production is irreplaceable.

Duke Lantao found Binghe in the factory, and it can be said that after entering the No. 3 production workshop, he saw Binghe at first sight.

On an industrial mecha with multiple mechanical wrists, this particularly handsome kid is seen. Duke Lantao smiled, turning his head to look at the expressions on the faces of the two mechanical controllers on the side.

Both mechanical controllers have the sound of a slight inhalation (very slight, but not obscuring the authority on the side)

The Boda mechanical controller smiled dryly: "Fourteen? Whose child is this? ”

In the highest office in the Toulon factory,

The highest specification, that is, tiled floors, wooden furniture, and large enamel teacups.

The big men of the Oka Empire didn't care about the humble hospitality here. Instead, he looked at the boy in the chair with his gaze. - Since going abroad, there are not so many rules and regulations in China, and Binghe is now facing this duke, and he is not so cramped in China, but he smiled and dimpleed, and sat very casually.

Duke Lantao: "Child, say your last name, this is courtesy among nobles, and your parents should have told you." ”

Binghe: "A member of the family who has walked out of the family cannot say his surname without the glory of making the family proud." Thank you for your understanding, Lord Duke. ”

The Duke smiled and said in a childlike tone, "At the age of twelve, do you think you've disgraced your family?" Do you still want to advance to the top of the profession? ”

Binghe asked rhetorically, "How do you know that there are no high-ranking professionals among my family's mechanical controllers?" ”

The mechanical controller on the side couldn't help but feel like that. Obviously, some common sense is not enough. The mentality that made the people present interesting

The mechanical controller on the side added: "On the mainland, there are no three major career ways to advance through the mechanical controller."

"What?" Binghe exclaimed. Then he quickly retracted his surprised tone

Binghe changed into an unfathomable tone and said, "I mean, how do you know that there is no case of a mechanical controller advancing to the three major professions. The entire continent is divided into the eastern continent and the western continent. ”

However, after Binghe changed his tone, he still had a childish look in his eyes, but he forgot to hide his curiosity, which was an expression that people could see at a glance, and this was an expression of wanting to know the reason.

I couldn't help but chuckle because of Binghe's performance.

After Duke Lantao smiled, he emphasized in a serious tone: "Regardless of the Eastern Continent or the Western Continent, there is no mechanic family inheritance to advance to the top professional, let me guess, your family, is the wave wheel right." ”

Binghe was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay, my name is Polon Keys. Can you tell me why, mechanics can't be promoted to the top profession? ”

Duke Lantao smiled and shook his head. The mechanical controller on the side explained: "It's not that it can't, it's that there is no at all. ”

The Upper Profession Lineage is said to have been born 8,000 years ago.

According to a book in the St. Sauk Library, it is not a family that has made these high-ranking professions, but several super organizations that have been created to commemorate the glory of the God-given era of mankind after the end of the God-given era. These organizations have existed for nearly 10,000 years,

The organization also inherited the enlightened spirit of the God-given period at the beginning, and later became an organization of a closed and decadent religious nature. These organizations came up with high-level careers thousands of years ago. The rights of the organization are seized by the higher-ranking professionals, and then the organizations are completely divided. After the split, the predecessor of the current duke, royal family and other families on the mainland was formed.

After the split, the various families are obviously incapable of using pulse acting to explore the upper profession, and these royal families and dukes use pulse acting to summarize the existing median occupation system at most.

And at least a thousand years ago, when the Industrial Revolution had not yet emerged, mechanics and machine controllers were still unpopular professions. Eight thousand years ago, in the darkest religious age, it was impossible to create a high-ranking profession based on a mechanic.

Knights, aims, and medic priests were popular professions 8,000 years ago.

After understanding these circumstances.

Binghe's face was slightly pale. muttered in his heart: "It's just that no one can do it yet, it doesn't mean that it will definitely not be able to do it." ”

Binghe raised his head, smiled at Grand Duke Lantao, and suddenly raised his legs, as if in a circle, and stood after flipping over a heel bucket. Then a complex movement was made,—— which was the movement of the fixing technique.

And Lan Tao recognized these actions. He put away his smile, then looked at Binghe's body again.

After a pause, the Grand Duke smiled and said, "No wonder, I feel pleasing to the eyes when I see you, it turns out that you have practiced the body fixing technique." ”

Binghe smiled and said, "Grand Duke, do you believe it now?" ”

Duke Lantao asked suspiciously, "What do you believe?" ”

Binghe: "I believe that I am trying to advance to the top profession and make the family glorious?" ”

Duke Lantao pretended to be serious and nodded: "Well, well, (suddenly flipped) I don't believe it"

Then he smiled and looked at Binghe, who was rolling his eyes, and said in a solemn tone: "Mr. Pollenkey, I appreciate your hard work, and the Oka Empire welcomes your arrival." ”
