Chapter 233: Craftsmanship! Technician Su is powerful!
From scratch.
This is a huge step forward.
Ten craftsmen took this step firmly.
Therefore, Su Yang did not skimp on rewards, and directly rewarded each person with a hundred taels of silver.
Of course, he is not a loser, just a thousand taels of silver, and he can't defeat Su Yang's current net worth.
The reason why he did this was to buy horse bones for his money and improve the enthusiasm of Xishan craftsmen to create research and development.
Facts have proved that Su Yang's decision is undoubtedly extremely wise.
Ten glassmakers suddenly got a hundred taels of silver, which caused a sensation in the entire West Mountain.
After all, in order to celebrate, and to thank Su Gongzi for his kindness, these ten people directly held a small banquet in the cafeteria, which can be described as envious of others.
That's a hundred taels of silver!
It is estimated that it will take ten years for ordinary craftsmen to save this huge amount of money!
Now it was just that what Su Gongzi wanted was fired, and Su Gongzi directly fulfilled his promise and lowered the reward, and it was one hundred taels per person!
This kind of impact can be imagined!
The firearms maker's eyes were red with jealousy, and he studied the drawings even harder.
The steward in charge of the firearms workshop even let out the words, even if hundreds of firearms craftsmen do not sleep, they must create Su Gongzi's drawings within a month!
The first prize has already been won by the glasssmiths, if they are not aggressive, they will not even be able to drink a sip of soup, and they will even anger Su Gongzi.
After all, months have passed, and there are hundreds of craftsmen in the firearms workshop, but they are not as good as the small glass workshop with only ten craftsmen, and this comparison makes it difficult not to feel that they are too wasteful.
At this moment, Su Yang was devoting himself to firing glass, and the ten glassmakers strictly followed his requirements.
The manager of the glass workshop is named Wang Hu, an honest craftsman, it was he who took the lead in firing glass successfully, so in addition to getting a hundred taels of silver, he was also promoted to the manager of the workshop by Su Yang, and his status was greatly improved, and he was also the number one person in Xishan.
Wang Hu looked at Su Yang and opened his mouth respectfully.
"Childe, you've been in the glass workshop lately, and those firearms craftsmen have been making a lot of noise!"
"Huh." Su Yang smiled disdainfully, "It's better to make a noise!" ”
"There is pressure to be motivated, those guys are just living so well that they are almost forgetting what it was like to have a hard life before."
"Obviously, there are hundreds of craftsmen in the firearms workshop, and the establishment time is several months earlier than the glass workshop, but they still can't create what this son wants!"
"On the contrary, you have made my son very satisfied, and you deserve to be greatly commended!"
Su Yang did not hide his admiration for Wang Hu and others, and even deliberately released the news of his dissatisfaction with the firearms workshop.
He believed that under such pressure, the firearms craftsman would be full of motivation, and it was best to be able to create the firearm he wanted within a month, otherwise Su Yang wouldn't mind sending a few more craftsmen to mine in the mountains!
At this moment, Su Yang is carefully inspecting the same raw materials collected by craftsmen, the raw materials of glass are very simple and very common, and they are everywhere in Xishan, but it is not difficult to collect.
The firing principle of glass is also very simple, and the temperature required for this process is not high, almost more than 600 degrees Celsius can almost melt most of these raw materials.
But if you want all the raw materials to be perfectly blended together and completely eliminate the bubbles in the glass, you must increase the temperature of the coal furnace, at least to about 1,500 degrees!
"Wang Hu, come and see."
"There are still a lot of bubbles and impurities in this glass, obviously because the temperature of the coal furnace is not enough."
"In addition, the whole glass is yellowish, and the color is still not stupid enough, so we have to continue to experiment and improve."
For Su Gongzi's orders, Wang Hu and other ten glassmakers absolutely obeyed.
It's just that they don't know how to solve it yet, and they can only get results by continuing to try and experiment.
But the move of firing glass now involves creating miracles to improve the morale of the Yan army, so Su Yang also had to personally take action to guide these craftsmen.
"You'll have to remember what I'm talking about next."
"After all, glass will be of great use in the future, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a lot."
"If the ten of you can master the glass firing process, then you are destined to eat and drink in this life!"
As soon as they heard this, Wang Hu and the other ten people were immediately overjoyed, and immediately knelt on the ground, thanking Su Yang for their kindness!
You must know that in this era, craftsmanship technology is a priceless treasure, is the craftsman's ability to support their families, craftsmen regard these technical experience as more important than their own lives, pass on the inside but not outside, pass on the men not to the women, in order to ensure that the children and grandchildren have something to eat!
Now that Su Gongzi has personally spoken and pointed out, it is a blessing that they can't cultivate in eight lifetimes, Wang Hu and the others are naturally grateful to Su Yang, and they can't wait to call him a master.
Su Yang didn't care about these false courtesies, and directly began to explain.
Ma Sanbao and Chu Xiong both stood behind him, quietly listening and learning.
"If you want the coal furnace to reach more than 1,500 degrees, it is not difficult to achieve, you must know that the temperature of the general charcoal fire can reach more than 700 degrees, and the temperature of the relatively closed bellows furnace of the blacksmith can reach about 1,000 degrees, so you only need to make some improvements to the coal furnace."
"You follow this drawing, change the structure of this kiln slightly, and then add a blower device to this kiln, so that the supply of oxygen can be increased, which can reach about 1,500 degrees, and all the materials of the glass are perfectly integrated, and the bubbles in the glass should be no problem at all!"
"Let's get to work, finish this step first, my son is waiting for your good news!"
Wang Hu respectfully took the drawings and carefully held them in his hands, treating them as treasures.
Seeing this, Su Yang just smiled, and then got up and left.
Compared with firing glass, he prefers to accompany his little daughter-in-law to do homework.
Su Yang left, but Ma Sanbao didn't leave.
Wang Hu and the others were still discussing the drawings, and Ma Sanbao walked over.
As soon as they saw him, Wang Hu and the others immediately saluted.
They all know Ma Sanbao's identity.
This eunuch is not only the eunuch of Yanwangfu, but also the founding disciple of Su Gongzi, so he has a high status in Xishan.
Ma Sanbao looked at the ten craftsmen with a smile and hurriedly waved his hand.
"You don't need to be polite, we came here to remind you."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Hu and the others chuckled in their hearts, and their expressions suddenly became nervous.
"I wonder what Father-in-law Sanbao wants to remind me to wait for?"
"Simple." Ma Sanbao restrained his smile, "Whether it's the glass manufacturing process or these drawings, it's all taught to you by my son-in-law." ”
"That means that everything you have now is given to you by my son-in-law."
"Since my son-in-law can give it to you, then he can naturally take it back!"
At this point, Ma Sanbao's tone suddenly became cold.
"Please also keep in mind your duty to be a man, strictly abide by the drawings and craftsmanship, and don't be stolen by others, otherwise don't blame my son-in-law for not being emotional!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Hu and other ten glassmakers were all in their hearts, and they immediately swore that they would never pass on the glass process.
However, what they said did not have any credibility, others could not see the value of this glass, how could Ma Sanbao not understand?
So he found Chu Xiong, the commander of the forbidden army, and after the two discussed, they directly sent the forbidden army armor soldiers to garrison the glass workshop, strictly prohibiting these craftsmen from walking around at will, which is equivalent to imprisoning them in disguise.
Ma Sanbao said that he was very tired.
As the so-called "wealth touches people's hearts", his second master doesn't care at all.
The master doesn't care about it, but they can't help but think about their own master as disciples, so he should do this evil man!
