For the next few days, Downer was busy settling the refugees.

The refugees have just emerged from the disaster, and they can't help but feel a little lost and panicked.

But later, under the strong propaganda of Donner and the Liberation Regiment, they seemed to understand that this was really working for themselves.

As a result, this group of refugees broke out with great enthusiasm for labor and consciously participated in the construction of Cancer Island.

Five days later, Theodore made minor repairs and returned to Port Manhill with his porcelain.

At this time, Jason found Donner: "Captain, the glass workshop, paper workshop, and lime kiln have all been successfully made, do you want to go and have a look." ”

"Really?" said Donner rejoicing at the good news.

Glass workshops, paper mills, lime kilns, all have special responsible persons.

Donner didn't have that much time to stare at the same thing, so he carefully explained the steps and methods of manufacturing to the craftsmen.

Donner asked the craftsmen to experiment and prototype themselves according to the methods and procedures.

To be honest, these craftsmen were very worried and scared when they received the task. Donner reassured them at the time that it didn't matter if they failed, if they didn't work once, they would always find a way to succeed.

Now that the stalls within the Liberation Regiment are getting bigger and bigger, Donner can't do everything himself.

Therefore, he has consciously let go of some of the rights in his hands and handed it over to the people below to deal with it himself.

For example, Downer basically left a lot of small chores to Jason, Blair, Jasmine Hans and a few others, and decided by himself, and if there were different opinions, they would meet to discuss and make decisions.

In terms of industry, Donner also slowly only proposed methods and general steps, and let the craftsmen develop and experiment on their own, rather than participating in everything and following it step by step.

Of course, in fact, he only knows the approximate steps and processes of many things.

In fact, on the other hand, Donner just hopes that Jason Hans and others can slowly handle affairs independently, instead of consulting him for everything.

Donner has said more than once that if you don't know what to pay attention to, you can hold a meeting with several people to discuss and vote to make decisions, and don't come to him for any trivial things. It doesn't matter if it's wrong, it can be corrected.

In Downer's view, as long as it is not a mistake of principle, as long as he always stands on the side of the residents in his heart, he wants to transform Cancer Island for better and better, so that everyone's life is better and better, even if he makes a mistake, it is not a bad thing.

Perhaps it can make them more deeply understand the purpose of transformation, the meaning of liberation, and learn more practical experience.

The same goes for craftsmen, he doesn't want all craftsmen to be just a group of workers who obey orders and follow steps, but to have the heart of craftsmen, not only dare to think, dare to do, but also dare to innovate and create.

In front of this group of craftsmen, Donner may be a giant in theory and knowledge, but he is a dwarf in action.

Whether it is a blacksmith, a craftsman, a stonemason, etc., there is a great degree of room for improvement and transformation in technology.

Donner sincerely hopes that all craftsmen can give free rein to their imaginations, create their own inventions, and add power to industry.

Donner is already planning in his heart to set up a craftsman academy, so that all craftsmen can provide their own skills and learning experience, combined with the knowledge and theory they know, and then systematically compile it into a book.

The first one allows craftsmen to learn and discuss other people's methods together and then use them to improve, and the second one can be used as a teaching material to quickly train more craftsmen.

Moreover, Donner also planned in his heart to propose a rating system for the craftsmen, and the level of the title will be linked to the salary in the future.

There are also various medal systems and so on, not only craftsmen, all working people, but also the army, can be engaged in together.

These things are inconspicuous, but they can often make a big difference.

Whether it is to increase the person's or the collective sense of honor and achievement, it can play a great role.

Donner thought about these things, Jason, who was familiar with the head of the group, was disturbed for a while, and after a while, Jason continued to ask, "Leader, do you want to go and see." ”

"Okay!" Donner came back to his senses and smiled heartily, "Let's go to the glass workshop first! I haven't seen old Yuri in a few days." ”

The glass workshop is located in a pre-planned industrial area. It used to be a wasteland, and under the direction of Donner, the stonemasons built it according to the requirements using huge stone bricks.

Not only the glass workshop, but also the production workshops of various industrial products that are expected to be built together in the future.

In fact, it had been done half a month ago, Donner didn't care, just let people send the tools over, and let Yuri take a few of himself to ponder.

Unexpectedly, half a month has passed, and the glass products have finally been tossed out.

The glass workshop is roughly composed of four workshops: material selection and processing, furnace, molding and warehouse, and the area is not large, and it is about two football fields.

Because there is no cement, the lime kiln has not been made, and the main body of the workshop is still dominated by boulders.

The stonemasons of this era had their own set of techniques, they polished the rocks into regular shapes, concave and convex, and built them together with yellow clay, supplemented by masonry and trees.

The roof is covered with bark and thatch, compacted with masonry and mud to prevent it from being lifted by the sea breeze.

Donner and Jason looked like the workers were quite hardworking from the first workshop, and they were all serious about doing their jobs.

It seems that Yuri has figured out a suitable set of processes on his own, and from front to back, he has learned the assembly line method proposed by Donner, and it looks well organized from beginning to end.

The old alchemist was in the glass kiln at this time, it was the middle of summer, and the temperature was very high, especially in the glass kiln workshop, almost everyone was sweating and working shirtless.

Donner walked in, frowned, and found Yuri: "Old Yuri, how can you let these people work naked?"

The old alchemist grinned and said, "Isn't this ghost weather too hot?"

Donner was serious: "It's not hot either, it's dangerous to work topless, what if you get burned by the glass solution? ”

Yuri helplessly spread his hands: "Okay, you are the head of the regiment, according to your requirements." ”

Then he muttered to himself, "Where did these problems come from?" ”

Donner couldn't help laughing: "Let's bear with it for the time being, just get used to it, Theodore has brought a lot of seasonal fruits this time, and I'll have someone send a little bit later." ”

"In addition, let's solve this problem slowly after the heat, okay, in short, safety production first. ”

"Whatever you want!" the old friend pouted, he really didn't understand Donner, and the benevolent one was a little too much!

Donner was helpless, so he changed the subject: "I heard that a lot of glass products have been made, and it's really a hard master." ”

The old alchemist liked to hear this, and he was in high spirits, and pulled Donner to the molding place, and said, "But to be honest, Donner, your method really works, and this glass is really blown out." However, the mold molding you mentioned is still under development, and as long as you solve a few difficulties, you can succeed. ”

"Really?" said Donner, who was pleasantly surprised that if glassware could be made from molds, it would mean that simple glassware could be made quickly and massively.

This is of great importance for future trade.
