Shi Kefa followed Liu Lin to the workshop area.

From afar, I saw hundreds of people building a fence several feet high.

Outside the wall was a large construction site, which seemed to be a barracks under construction, and Shi Kefa had seen these soldiers called the Guards, who were now bare-armed, building barracks and leveling the land.

"These guards will be used to protect the workshop area in the future, and they must apply for entry and exit, and they can only go out after passing the inspection of the escort team! If you go out for no reason, you will be expelled from Rhubarb Village if you are light, and you will be imprisoned in a cell if you are heavy, do you hear? Liu Lin saw that Shi Kefa was looking around, and explained.

Shi Kefa and the others all nodded in response.

After entering the fence, many people were building houses, and although it was almost dark, everyone was full of energy, and many people continued to work with torches.

Liu Lin brought Shi Kefa into a workshop.

Shi Kefa immediately smelled the smell of soap, and also saw Zhu Youxiao, Huang Xiao, Song Yingxing, and Wang Zheng standing next to a large cauldron.

"Zhu Gongzi, this is the worker who came in first." Liu Lin brought Shi Kefa over.

Zhu Youxiao nodded.

At present, it is only in an experimental state, and the facilities are simple, and there is no room for so many people to work at the same time.

Shi Kefa and a few people arrived, it was really just enough, just after the test, Zhu Youxiao and others went into battle in person, and there was only a pot of soap, only dozens of pieces of soap.

"Who are you literate?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

Shi Kefa stepped forward cautiously, he was so close to His Majesty the Emperor, and his heart was excited and apprehensive.

"The villain Zuo Xianzhi knows."

Zhu Youxiao asked someone to take a pen and paper and said, "I'll dictate, you record it." ”

"Limestone is heated at high temperature to form calcium carbonate (quicklime), calcium carbonate (quicklime) is added to water to produce calcium hydroxide, soda ash (sodium carbonate) is extracted from plant ash, and lard or vegetable oil is taken ......"

Shi Kefa's pen flew like a fly, and he quickly wrote it out, the handwriting was extremely neat, Zhu Youxiao looked at it, and pointed out some mistakes in some words with his fingers, after all, Zhu Youxiao also seemed to understand these terms, and Shi Kefa's writing mistakes were also understandable.

Shi Kefa was so ashamed that his face turned red.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "The words are very good, how can you be a homeless person?" Forget it, don't talk about it, I feel uncomfortable talking about it! ”

Zhu Youxiao paused and said: "Zuo Xianzhi, I am in charge of this workshop for the time being, you can put away this production method, and you will plan the workshop tomorrow, including the deployment of manpower, the construction of the workshop, and the production of soap!" Do you have the confidence to do it well? ”

Shi Kefa nodded heavily and said, "I will definitely live up to the trust of my son!" ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "This is the simplest soap process, this is mainly for civilians, and the requirements are not too high, you see, you can produce a little better than what we tested, and you have to study the soap used for dignitaries."

Well done! You're still young, you're literate, that's an advantage here, as long as you do a good job, you'll have more opportunities in the future, you know? ”

Shi Kefa drank a bowl of chicken soup poured by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and immediately responded loudly! Zhu Youxiao patted Shi Kefa on the shoulder.

Huang Xiao said to Liu Lin's: "Sister-in-law Liu, this Zuo Xianzhi is the director of the soap workshop, and the treatment is configured according to the factory director, and you must fully cooperate in the work!" This soap factory has a great future, and the market must be very large, so it must be built according to the scale of the factory! ”

Liu Lin responded.

After Huang Xiao and Zhu Youxiao said a few more words to Shi Kefa, they went back to the city together.

Liu Lin found a foreman to come over, and said to Shi Kefa with a smile: "Director Zuo, you are really lucky, Zhu Gongzi has taken a fancy to you all of a sudden, what manpower do you want to tell Lao Liu, let him arrange someone to build the workshop, and I will take you to the dormitory." ”

Shi Kefa had already memorized the production process by heart, and he already had a plan in his heart, so he immediately told the plan and the foreman, and then went with Liu Lin.

Taking advantage of the night, the two walked more than a mile and came to a residential courtyard area, where they were all small courtyards, although they were not big, but the surrounding forests were verdant and very quiet.

"This is the living area of the factory director and other supervisors, this is the house of Mr. Song of the steel factory and glass factory, here is the house of Mr. Wang of the steam engine and textile machine factory, and the house that has not yet been completed is the house of our young master Huang and Zhu Gongzi, next to the house of the young master, it is my home, and my man is the supervisor here......"

Liu Lin introduced, pushed open a courtyard door, and walked in with Shi Kefa.

The yard is not big, but it has everything you need, kitchen, bathroom, living room, study, master bedroom, guest room, everything.

"The treatment of the factory director level is really good, ten taels of silver a month, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all included, this is a net income of ten taels of silver! There are firewood, rice, oil and salt in the kitchen, if you are hungry at night, you can get it yourself, there are four sets of clothes in the bedroom from the inside out, and there are books such as factory regulations in the study, you are slowly familiar with it! Director Zuo, our Rhubarb Village has just been built, this treatment will get better and better in the future, and there must be more and more people who want to be factory directors! You're going to have to work hard! ”

Shi Kefa was stunned when he heard this, this treatment is really good!

He politely sent Liu Lin away.

With the lamp in his hand, he entered the study.

There were very few books on the shelves, only three, and the first one was the factory rule, which was very thin, so Shi Kefa hurriedly took it.

This factory rule was specially printed by Huang Xiao, compared with the hundreds of rules in later generations, this is much simpler, but for the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is also a cross-era rule.

The more Shi Kefa looked at it, the more shocked he became! He thought that managing a workshop was a simple matter, but after reading this manual, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

In Shi Kefa's view, the employment and management methods are really powerful, and everything has rules to follow, from the clothing and behavior of workers to the construction planning of the factory......

Shi Kefa couldn't sit still any longer, and went out towards the construction site, the plan he had just taken for granted now seemed to be out of place.

Stepping on the moonlight, Shi Kefa walked towards the construction site, looked around, and saw that Wang Zheng, Song Yingxing and others were all in the house, and they were obviously working overtime in the factory to catch up with the work, Shi Kefa was inexplicably moved in his heart!

Shi Kefa found Foreman Liu, put forward the revised construction requirements, and personally went into battle to work with the workers, and was busy until after supper, and then everyone changed shifts and was taken over by another group of people.

Shi Kefa did a day's heavy work today, but he couldn't stand it, so he had to explain and return to the courtyard.

I went to the closet to get my clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

"Why is this soap so fragrant and coolness of mint? Yes, Your Majesty said that I should study the use of dignitaries and nobles, isn't this the style? ”

Shi Kefa sighed and said in his heart: "This is just picking up people's teeth, it can't be regarded as my own research, I can only improve it from the type of fragrance and style packaging!" ”

Thinking of this, Shi Kefa lifted his spirits again, after taking a bath, the whole person was a lot more relaxed, but there was no sleepiness, he went to the study again, and there were two books, he hadn't had time to read them.

One primary school Chinese and one primary school mathematics.

The content is simple, but Shi Kefa couldn't help frowning, he knew all the words, but the strange symbols like tadpole text on each word, he didn't understand what it was for!

There are also a lot of strange symbols in mathematics, which is difficult for Shi Kefa.

He took a pen and paper, copied the corresponding numbers in the figure, and then counted them, and soon understood the meaning of the symbols such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

After he calculated, he suddenly realized that in this way, the calculation was fast and accurate!

"Aren't these the same as the Divine Book of Chemistry? Although this primary school math is simple, the arithmetic methods and symbols are very practical! This is the first volume, that is, there is something deeper! This is primary, well, for enlightenment, and there must be something more profound! ”

Shi Kefa suddenly came to his senses, stopped his pen, and went to look at the language again, this time he pondered for a long time before he sighed and put down the book! This really won't!

He is a dignified person, but he can't understand it, which makes him a little ashamed, but he has some expectations, how can he learn this?
