Chapter 544: Legends
In order to express his dissatisfaction, Jinrong tried the hoist, but he not only didn't care, but he didn't even go to the scene to observe and support the scene.
Without the active participation of His Royal Highness King Yu, the others were naturally not in a high mood and did not take it seriously. Only the staff of Yuwangfu took two rustic craftsmen to lift three iron ingots of different weights at the site prepared by the Ministry of Industry.
Although the preliminary preparation for the display of the function of the chain hoist is very low-key, the display effect is a sensation.
His Royal Highness King Yu behaved very carelessly, and His Majesty the Emperor thought it was not a big deal, so he only sent a eunuch who was waiting for him to take a look, which was considered to give King Yu a face.
The test site was selected in the patio outside the office hall of the six departments, and it was very convenient to see the excitement, although there was no heavyweight present, but it was convenient for the officials and clerks to pass by and take a look.
The dull office was finally lively, and there were a lot more people passing by the patio on this day.
Du Dazhong led a small follower, under the gaze of a few people who were sparsely pulled, the first time the lifting was successful, and when the hastily prepared jack of iron ingots prepared by the Ministry of Industry was hung firmly on the temporarily prepared gantry, a few people who dealt with business and guarded the scene, as well as the small officials who happened to pass by, were all quiet.
Then, I don't know who let out the first exclamation, and then the scene got a little out of control. The few people who were dealing with official affairs didn't care about the slag of the craftsman's soil, so they all stepped forward to take a closer look and ask, and the words and deeds and the little guy hurriedly dissuaded a few people. Several small officials on the periphery who witnessed the rise of the iron bump were also surprised, and they all got together to talk about it.
The adults working in the rooms around the patio heard the commotion outside.
The lower-level officials who went out to scold the noise outside had just stepped out of the door, and before they could speak, someone had already come over and pointed their fingers to explain what had just happened. Several officials looked at the iron bump that fell in mid-air, and immediately spoke, and then went back to report to Shangguan.
After that, the ministers/officials, in an attitude of disbelief, put down their affairs and went out to see what it was. Is it really able to lift, or is it making people happy in a grandstanding?
It is said that there are many strong men and warriors who can lift thousands of pounds of boulders in the teahouse and on the stage, but no one has really encountered such strange people. To put it bluntly, it's just a magical legend, a beautiful imagination. If something like this happened outside their room, it would be a shocking thing, and it would be worth talking about for a while.
Wang Xian, in particular, couldn't believe it. This thing is the product of His Royal Highness King Yu's shareholding workshop, and even His Royal Highness King Yu himself is too lazy to make fun of things, so there should be nothing surprising. Otherwise, wouldn't His Highness have come over a long time ago?
Then, on the periphery of the enlarged patio where the crowd was crowded, Wang Xian saw several craftsmen under the Ministry of Industry humming and pushing an iron ingot with a small cart.
Wang Xian frowned, shouted to a few craftsmen, looked at the iron ingot, and asked in a deep voice, "Didn't you say that you have already hung a thousand catties of iron ingots?" What does this do? ”
The leading craftsman hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The little ones also listen to the arrangement to do things, saying that they use three weights of iron ingots, the one just now is a thousand catties, this one is a thousand five, and two thousand catties of iron ingots will be used together in a while." ”
Wang Xian had the heart to reprimand two sentences, but he couldn't tell what the situation of the chain hoist was, maybe it could really be hanged?
He waved his hand impatiently and told them to do their own thing, and then stood on the ground and thought about it, but did not squeeze into the crowd at all, but stood on the steps of the eaves, over the heads of the people, and looked at the center of the enlarged patio.
In the center of the patio stood the staff of the Yuwang Mansion and the two rustic craftsmen. In front of a few people, there was a thick shelf that was nine feet high, and on the shelf hung a small thing, which I thought was the chain hoist. Listen to the name, it is not a high-grade thing.
Yu Shiqing, the head of the household, saw Wang Xian, walked over, first arched his hand to Wang Xian, then pointed to the crowd, and said with a smile: "It looks like a magical object, the little ones said, only that thing, just now really pulled up a thousand catties of heavy objects." ”
Wang Xian smiled and returned the salute, "I just heard about it, isn't it, I also came out to see it." ”
Yu Shiqing asked: "The Holy Lord sent the probationary affairs to the Ministry of Works, I don't know how the adults arranged it?" This is...... Do you want to hang it again? ”
Wang Xian was stunned for a while, how did he know about these cumbersome things? These little things are arranged to do things below, if he has to personally take care of everything, what else do those people underneath do?
"It always takes a few more tries to make the brakes more stable." Wang Xian smiled and diverted the topic, he didn't dare to say that this was a trivial matter, and it was not worth his personal arrangement.
As it turned out, this was no small matter. A few, but not few, number of officials from the ministries witnessed the iron lump being brought up again. Two rustic, unseen craftsmen in the patio, one unhurriedly pulling the bracelet, the other watching from the side, successively pulled up the iron ingots weighing 1,500 catties and 2,000 catties, stabilized, and put down again, steady, effortless, and really alone.
Needless to say, how surprised and excited the people in the audience were, how words and deeds greeted and didn't mention the people who were watching, and they didn't mention anything, just a few bigwigs from each department were stunned, and almost dropped their jaws. It turns out that there are such miracles in the world, and there are such ingenious weapons!
The emperor was a little late, and he listened to the eunuch who was hurrying back to tell him about the trial of the chain hoist.
After listening to the eunuch's eloquent words, His Majesty the Emperor groaned slightly, and immediately brought Han Yanhui and Jinrong, King Fu, and Wang Xian to him, and first asked Wang Xian if the thread structure could be used.
Wang Xian glanced at King Fu and replied: "Wechen arranged for craftsmen to try, and it is indeed easy to use threads as fasteners, and it is easy to disassemble and maintain. However, whether it can be used on a large scale and what is the effect of long-term fastening, it has to be used in the fortifications before we dare to make a conclusion.
