Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 17 Old Workers

"Zi Shan, I think you have the temperament of a landlord." Wen Desi smiled, "Everyone is like a bastard, but you are the prestige of a landlord."

"Maybe our ancestors were landlords. My long-standing dream is to have a large manor, grow vegetables and raise chickens, build a grape trellis, put a rattan chair under it, and drink tea slowly with a teapot..."

"It's so enjoyable, but isn't it possible to do it now?" Wen Desi said slowly, "We have made a lot of money. Your little dream is trivial."

"It's a pity that the wormhole will disappear one day." Xiao Zishan stretched his muscles and bones, "This time I feel that there are obvious energy fluctuations."

"It would be great if it was the random door of Doraemon." Boss Wen laughed.

Xiao Zishan laughed: "I haven't finished my words. There are also a few cool beauties who are fanning and peeling lychees. A mature woman, a royal sister, and a little loli..." He thought for a while, "Actually, Colgate Loli is a good embryo."

"That girl," Wen Desi lay on the sofa and peeled a lychee, "is not Gao Qing's daughter at all."

"Well, the DNA is quite different." Xiao Zishan began to register the pile of dishes and porcelain. Every time he came back from time travel, he was responsible for registering the trade items and income.Wang Gong went to work in his small machinery factory again. Recently, his enthusiasm for work was so high that it surprised Wen Zong and Xiao Zishan—not only did he work overtime all day, but he was also full of enthusiasm when he came back.

"There is no genetic characteristic of her father in appearance, and she has a slight resemblance to her brother. And that height."

"Boss Wen, have you taken a fancy to this long-legged little loli?"

"It looks like I have to let it go first, there are too many serious things. Let's see what to do first."

"Of course it's recruiting troops."

After completing the third crossing trade, they have more than 2000 million cash in hand, and the conditions for material preparation have been met.

To recruit troops, the first task is to choose a suitable starting point for assembly - a special place is needed to receive those who will report in the future.Guangzhou is obviously not a suitable place.According to Wen Desi's thinking, this location should be relatively remote, close to the place of future crossing, with enough living facilities to accommodate hundreds of people, and a large open space, preferably a playground.

"What do you want the playground for?" Xiao Zishan was puzzled.

"Exercise your body." Wen Desi looked at his arms and Xiao Zishan's stomach, "Don't have to say, when you want to escape for your life, at least you have to outrun the natives of the Ming Dynasty."

At present, the army is divided into three groups. Xiao Zishan is familiar with the big and small cities along the coast of Guangdong because he has worked as a salesman. The search for the base is left to him.Wang Luobin continued to work in his machinery factory.Wen Desi stayed in Guangzhou to prepare for the next cross-trade, and at the same time moderated the Internet discussion on the guestbook, and at the same time discovered those professionals.The first batch of invitation lists have already been drawn up.

The fourth person to join the committee is not from the Internet, which is somewhat unexpected.

Wen Desi had just read the discussion board that night, and was thinking about who he would have a private interview with next, when he suddenly saw Wang Luobin walking in, wearing a greasy overalls, sitting on the sofa indifferently On, his face was full of excitement.

"Wang Gong, you go to work so excitedly every day, what's the good thing?" Wen Desi was curious.

"Mr. Wen, I want you to meet someone."

"Who is it?" Wen Desi secretly wondered, Wang Gong usually doesn't like to talk, doesn't socialize much, and he is not a local, why did he suddenly want to introduce someone to him?

"My boss." Seeing that Wen Desi was a little unresponsive, he added, "It's the boss where I work, surnamed Zhan."

"Ok?"

"I told him about time travel—"

"What?!" Wen Desi almost jumped up.

"Old Wen, don't get excited, don't get excited," Wang Luobin said, "His surname is Zhan, his name is Zhan Wuya, he is a technician, his craft is very good, and he is proficient in everything such as turning, planing and milling..."

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business, he didn't treat you as a psychopath or a liar?"

"Not really, he still wants to participate."

"Participate?" Wen Desi didn't turn his head for a while, and asked again, "Does he want to go too?"

"Yeah, when I made a hand-cranked Gatling gun with him the other day..."

"What!?" Wen Desi really jumped up this time, "Wang Gong!!"

Quickly lowered the voice - although the sound insulation of this room is very good.

"You are crazy! You will go to jail for making black guns!"

"It's nothing, anyway, we have to make guns in Ming Dynasty. Practice your hands first." Wang Luobin looked indifferent, "It's nothing for us to make two guns mechanically. Little Japan's [-] infantry guns have been manufactured."

"Let's not talk about the [-]nd Artillery of Little Japan, what's the matter with your boss?"

"He really appreciated your idea, and said that the machining should be left to him, and he plans to move his entire factory there."

Zhan Wuya is not the old worker covered in oil in Mr. Wen's imagination, but he looks like he is in his early thirties, wearing a T-shirt, his hair is neatly combed, a pair of large hands with rough skin are exposed. the nature of his profession.

Because of the nature of his work, Mr. Wen usually has a lot of contact with such small outsourcing processing factories.After chatting, the two quickly discussed some machining technical issues in depth. The common language narrowed the distance between the two sides, and soon they talked about everything.

"Mr. Wen, let's put it this way, there is nothing we can't make in the mechanical industry." Zhan Wuya's speech was full of working-class pride, "It's just my small factory. Tanks are not easy to make." Dare to say, building some mortars and machine guns is still a piece of cake. When I was in technical school..."

As he talked, he talked for 5 minutes about how he made a mortar as a graduation design homework, and then discussed with Wang Luobin about making guns——it was only later that he found out why Wang Luobin and Boss Zhan established the project so quickly. The main reason for forming a strong friendship is that both of them are fanatical gun lovers—Wen Desi hurriedly stopped the two's high-spirited talk, so as not to let people think that this is a black gun gang in the making.

He introduced the main equipment in his factory: 2 shearing machines, 80 bending machine 1T, 63 punch 1T, 5 1T, 2 lathes, 1 planer, 1 radial drilling machine, 3 bench drills, cutting machine 1 set, 5 sets of electric welding machines, 1 set of spot welding machines, 1 set of sawing machine, 1 set of crane, 1 set of grinding machine, 2 sets of grinding machine, 1 set of oxygen welding machine, 1 set of air compressor, and 1 set of paint drying room facilities.

"Actually, it's really hard. If you have three machines, you can work together." Zhan Wuya said, "When I was studying, I liked to read some memoirs of military industry. At that time, the military industry was all good people, and they only relied on a lathe and a vise. , can also make guns and cannons and machine tools." He thought for a while, "But the material is very important. If there is no good material, the things made will be discounted, and some can't even be processed. In particular, there must be suitable materials. Steel."

Wang Luobin said: "We want to establish a metallurgical industry, making iron and steel."

"I don't understand this aspect. If the material problem can be solved, besides being able to manufacture all kinds of professional equipment, the biggest advantage of the machine tool is that it can be self-replicated, and the production scale can be continuously expanded without fear of loss. It can be regarded as sustainable development."

"Indeed, no matter how much reserve you bring, there will be a day when it will be exhausted."

"Yes, but some things still need to be brought. For example, turning tools are usually made of alloy steel or ceramic sintering. We can't make them at the beginning. There are also grinding wheels for grinding. Special materials are required, and sintering also requires technology. In addition, grease I don't know if I can use substitutes, and there are quite a few types..."

"We can solve these problems one by one." Wen Desi was refreshed, "Old Zhan, you should be responsible for the preparation of the industry first."

"No problem!" Zhan Wuya's mood has never been so full of passion.It has been almost ten years since I left the factory to start my own business. Although I have a small situation, my life has become boring.Tired of dealing with customers every day, at this moment, an unprecedented new world appeared in front of his eyes. He was full of fighting spirit and decided to do a big job in this new world.

The Industrial Group of the Crossing Committee was established on this day, and as a customary name, it was called the Industrial Port.A few days later, another member of the Industrial Port also reported for duty. This was Ma Qianju who later competed fiercely with Zhan Wuya for the title of father of Crossing Industry in his memoirs.

Ma Qianju was originally in the same jar as Xiao Zishan and the others, and they were somewhat familiar with each other.But at the beginning, he didn't participate in the discussion of the traversal of this wormhole, but was obsessed with the overhead design of his all-mechanical computing center system - named Gear Five - in another post.At first, he thought Mr. Wen's wormhole was just like his mechanical computer, which was purely empty. Later, when he found out that this group of people was really planning to go to the Ming Dynasty, he hurriedly found an acquaintance to sign up.As for his motivation, it is not unusual at all: only by creating a pure new world without chips, where he becomes a powerful man, can he realize his ideal: covering an area of ​​[-] acres, [-] horsepower, and computing power per second. A luxurious mechanical computing center with [-] operations—this huge machine makes his heart tremble when he thinks about it.

Generally speaking, Ma Qianju's hobbies are basically steampunk, the key word: multi-riveting and steaming.There are many chimneys and roaring boilers: black smoke from coal burning, thick steam from boilers, huge roar when steel collides, huge steam turbine trains running on the ground, multi-turrets, hard shells, and countless compartments in the sky. Helium flying gunship... This is his ideal world.

After receiving the phone invitation from Wen Desi, he packed his luggage without hesitation, resigned from the job of drawing the road design drawings that were so densely packed, and set off on the train to Guangdong.

What he went to was not Guangzhou, but a county-level city that he had never heard of.After getting off the train, you have to transfer to a long-distance bus.This place is the starting base that Xiao Zishan found.Travelers will prepare their horses here, get ready, and embark on the never-ending path of conquering parallel worlds.
