Chapter 36 Exiting the Palace
"Read the ruler first, read the main ruler. Now the main ruler is 70% of five..." Gong Shujian held a vernier caliper that had just been made and read the numbers according to the method Xiong Jing said. Gong Yindao stood by and watched with his mouth tightly closed, and his face was unpleasant. "Read the ruler again, the overlap between the two and three grids is 20 and three, and the value is 17% of twenty?"
"It's not seventeen out of twenty, it's 17 squares multiplied by 0.05, which means 0.85. Adding 5.7 of the main ruler, the total length should be 5.785 cm." Although he has six teachers, Xiong Jing doesn't mind being a teacher by himself. However, people in later generations are not used to using numbers, and often use fractions, not decimals. "Doctors need to be used to decimals, and they know the decimals directly, and logarithmic scaling is of great benefit."
"Yes." Gong Shujian was a craftsman. The craftsman recognized the numbers. With a small ruler and a secondary ruler, he could measure the accuracy that he had not had before, which made him admire Xiong Jing a little more. It was just because of his habit that he could not use decimal readings for the moment.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools." Xiong Jing was very satisfied with the vernier caliper made by a craftsman in the palace more than two thousand years ago. This satisfaction is not only because of a high-precision measurement tool, but also because he can finally convert weights and measures of future generations with the weights and measures of Chu. "The parts are accurately uniform in scale, and assembled by flowing water, and the speed of making water trucks can be increased exponentially."
Zijinshan Shipyard has long taken out parts processing drawings and waterwheel assembly processes. The Ford assembly line is used for the assembly of steel machines, while the Zhufu assembly line can be used for the assembly of wooden waterwheels. Wood is similar to copper and iron tools and steel to tool steel. The biggest difference from traditional processes is the interchangeability of spare parts, which is the reason for the exponential decrease in production hours.
"Your Highness, there is not much time left, when can the water truck be built?" Gong Shujian was still looking at the vernier caliper carefully, while Yin Dao was a little anxious. He was the prefect and the head of the water truck production. Time was tight, so he was worried that the construction period would be delayed.
"The craftsman of the Mansion can start mass manufacturing." Xiong Jing fully believes in the efficiency of the assembly line. The car has tens of thousands of parts, only a few water trucks, less than one hundred, and the process is very simple. "The shipyard manager Shaoyan has come to the Mansion to provide guidance and arrangements."
Shao Yan is Ge's subordinate. Concubine Zhao is a dowry and is a minister's son. In the past two months, he has been following Xiong Jing and taught him orally. He is more than enough to be a small supervisor. Gong Yindao is still worried. He said, "I have any unkind requests, please ask Your Highness to go there in person?"
"Not slander..." Although Xiong Jing lived in the Eastern Palace, he usually handled affairs in his bedroom, for fear of any accidents from his father. Willow bark juice does relieve pain, but his father's illness is still sometimes better and sometimes worse. After that court meeting, the government affairs were presided over by the Order Huang Xie.
"If Your Highness doesn't go in person, the craftsmen and craftsmen are unwilling to change the production method." Gong Yindao finally revealed the secret. "Although the method of flowing water can reduce time, the craftsmen and craftsmen cannot name the name on the instrument."
"Is there such a thing?" Xiong Jing was slightly surprised. He was a little confused about the relationship between the craftsmen in the founding of the Mansion and the founding of the Mansion.
"Yes, the craftsmen of the palace were mostly craftsmen from other countries, and were hired by the Great Chu. The name was made by ancient instruments. Under the method of flowing water, the water wheels were made by hundreds of people, and they could not be named above them, so they did not want to change the strings."
"That's how it is." Xiong Jing scratched his head. The problem is that the waterwheel is expensive is not because the craftsman's skills are not good, but because the craftsman's skills are too good. A craftsman carefully carved and built a waterwheel, which is not expensive. Part exchange and assembly lines are essentially to make manufacturing accurate and simple, and the first part is exactly the same as the 100,000th part. However, skilled craftsmen are extremely disgusted with this homogeneous production, which will make the hero useless.
"The water wheel was made by His Highness, and the method of flowing water was also taught by His Highness..." Learning from the people around Xiong Jing, Gong Yindao whispered His Highness one by one, and the people seemed to cry. That day, Yan Dynasty discussed the matter and set up the index for the construction of the mansion. The water wheel would need to be built within three months. It would be fine to use the number of wood made by the construction of the mansion and the assembly of the water. But now the craftsmen refuse to use the method of flowing water.
"Okay. Let me tell my father first." Xiong Jing felt that he was responsible, so he got up and came to the east room from the atrium. He thought his father was asleep, but before he could enter the room, he heard his father cough and said, "Jing'er?"
"Yes, Father." Xiong Jing walked quickly past the curtain. Seeing that the King of Chu wanted to get up, he hurriedly helped him up. The eunuch also opened the window. The summer sun was shining, and the green outside the window immediately brought a lot of anger to the dormitory.
"Today's business is over?" Xiong Yuan gasped, he held back his cough and asked in a tight voice.
"It's not finished yet." Xiong Jing settled his father and had to tell the truth. "The child needs to build a mansion once."
"Go to build a mansion... cough cough..." There is something wrong with building a mansion. Of course, there is a problem with the production of a water truck, and the water truck is actually a project to build momentum for Xiong Jing. It is not that the prince has already established no need to build momentum, but the prince has established no need to build momentum. "The cost of the water truck exceeds three hundred yuan?"
"No." Xiong Jing shook his head. The court held that price of a single water truck was set at 300, 400 for two people, and 600 for cows. This is not the ex-factory price, but the selling price of cities and towns across the country. Of course, the purpose is to benefit the people. If there is a loss, the Grand Mansion will bear it. "The craftsmen in the building of the mansion are not familiar with the production of water trucks, so they need to supervise them in person."
"Will Ling Yin and Jing'er go with each other?" Xiong Yuan suddenly changed his face and stopped coughing.
"Ling Yin is not here, Gong Yin Dao, Gong Shu and Doctor Gong'er go with him." Xiong Jing was not aware of the King of Chu's concerns.
"My hand has to go?" Xiong Yuan stretched out his hand to grab his son. When his son took the hand, he grabbed his son tightly.
"It needs to be gone once." Xiong Jing couldn't say that the craftsmen in the house were unwilling to accept the production of water, so as not to worry his father, and only said it was a technical problem.
"Changjiang, Changjiang." Xiong Yuan grabbed his son with one hand and shouted urgently at the servant chief Jiang.
"King, king, old servant is here, old servant is here." Chang Jiang Ben was resting, and he heard the sound and crawled.
"Jing'er needs to build a mansion once, Lingyin, Lingyin..." Xiong Yuan wanted to speak and coughed, but Jiang understood his meaning at first.
"The emperor did not make any abnormal movements, and there was no abnormality in Yingdu." Chang Jiang hurriedly bowed and told him.
As soon as he said this, Xiong Jing suddenly woke up and rushed to his forehead for a moment: "Father..." He called out to Father, and then opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"The Eastern Palace Palace Jia is the general, and the sanitation yin will be temporarily replaced by Chang Jiang." Xiong Yuan, who held his son's clothes tightly, finally relaxed a little. "Jing'er is young, and whenever he leaves the palace, he must bring the palace Jia; whenever he goes out of Ying, he must protect the sanitation."
"Children obey the order." Xiong Jing couldn't help but bow down. Apart from feeling his father's care, he felt very ashamed. Last time his father refused to leave the palace to see Lian Po, but he did not explain the reason.
