False eunuch in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 17

There are not many craftsmen who dare to do some meticulous work. Except for Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui, the rest are also apprentices brought out by Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui.With the presence of these two masters, these apprentices did not dare to become independent. There are also rules for craftsman's business.That's why Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui dared to carry on those delicate tasks.

Other blacksmiths wanted to find work, so they also found Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui.

"Master Yang, Master Zhou, this time there is so much work in the military battle, why don't you two masters take the lead and carry on the work. Everyone will share it again, and the price will be set according to the difficulty of the parts. You can get some in the middle Master Qian, what do you think?" Some blacksmiths found a leader to discuss with Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui.

Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui were also a little moved, although there were no tasks that the two of them couldn't do.Eat it all, and you can eat it.But with such a short construction period, his staff must be too busy.Hearing these blacksmiths say this, I was a little moved.Among these ironware, some parts are very simple, but some parts are very complicated.Ordinary craftsmen will definitely not be able to play it.But the parts are all packaged together.Let ordinary blacksmiths dare not take over.If the two of them continue to do those delicate tasks, they will definitely earn more, and these people are also willing to pay the master.In this way, the profits will be greater, and all the blacksmiths in the Military Bureau will accept their love.

"Old Zhou, how about we make a difference?" Yang Shiliang said.

"I think it will work." Zhou Bugui said.

"Since everyone said so, it would be too hypocritical for us not to agree. Lao Zhou and I will take over all the work. At that time, we will mark the price according to the difficulty of the workpiece. When the time comes, everyone will come and accept the work. The price tag is easy for everyone to discuss. Anyway, it will not let everyone suffer." Yang Shiliang said.

Not long after Cao Qing sat in the room, Chen Fulian walked in with lotus-like steps before half of the cup of tea with a few unknown leaves was drunk.

"Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Cao, someone revealed the list. It was Old Man Yang and Old Man Zhou who took over all the work." Chen Fulian said.

"Oh? The two of them took over all the work?" Cao Qing asked.

"Yes. Both of them picked up. Is it good for these two people? Eunuch Cao made it clear. If not, I will reprimand them immediately." Chen Fulian said.

"This is a good thing. Eunuch Chen doesn't need to stop it. Let those two people lead the way to meet me." Cao Qing said.

Sometimes you need to use the power in your hand, but if you don't use the power in your hand, others will ignore you.Cao Qing knew this very well, so he just sat on the stool without moving, directing Chen Fulian from there.

Not only did Chen Fulian not complain, but he was very happy.What's going on here?The leader is very trustworthy. He can do everything big and small. What kind of trust is that?

Chen Fulian was in a good mood, so when he walked out to face Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui, he also had a smile on his face. Normally, when he dealt with these craftsmen, his face would definitely be stern.

"Hurry up and come in with me, both of you, Eunuch Cao wants to see you." Chen Fulian said.

"Thank you, Eunuch Chen, thank you, Eunuch Chen." Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui thanked each other repeatedly.

Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui followed Chen Fulian into the room.Cao Qing continued to lay out his score.It is very pleasant to hold a teacup and drink tea slowly.Now these people have not really become his Cao Qing's people, so they have to suffer slowly to wear off some of their temperament.It's not that Cao Qing accompanied the smiling face and gave these people silver taels, so they would be heartbroken to Cao Qing. If they didn't make it right, they would complain instead in the future.They have to be confused, and they have to be intimidated.Distance produces beauty, how to maintain a distance that is as far as close, as close as possible, is a big article in this.

"Eunuch Cao, I brought the man here." After finishing speaking, Chen Fulian immediately winked at Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui.

Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui hurried forward and knelt on the ground, "Lord Cao, my name is Yang Shiliang." "My name is Zhou Bugui."

"Get up and talk!" Cao Qing said calmly.

Yang Shiliang continued: "The two of us summed it up, and it is impossible for any one of these workpieces to complete. Some workpieces are more complicated and require a master craftsman to make them. Some workpieces are simple in technology, but the quantity requirements are very large. We are going to concentrate All the masters come together to complete it."

"Are you sure you can finish it on time? My time limit and quality requirements are very strict. I have already given you the samples for those measuring rulers. You can build them yourself. When the time comes, use the rulers you made to judge you If you fail to check and accept the finished workpieces, not only will you not get the silver taels, but you may even lose your head." Cao Qing asked.

"The villain will definitely be able to create qualified workpieces. But there must be rules for acceptance." Zhou Bugui said.

"Bold!" Chen Fulian said aside.Zhou Bugui's words obviously did not trust Cao Qing.

Cao Qing chuckled, "Joke! Could it be that my dignified eunuch will be greedy for your money? Respect the emperor's order, make workpieces, and prepare a factory for the military bureau. What a big deal! If you are really capable, you will have to rely on you in the future. How can you be greedy for such a small profit?"

Zhou Bugui hurriedly kowtowed and apologized: "Father-in-law forgives the crime, father-in-law forgives the crime, a villain has eyes but no pearls, so you should not judge the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

"Remember this crime for the time being. In the future, if you can build the workpiece I need, that's all. If you can't finish it, I will settle it with you!" Cao Qing tried his best to use a sinister voice. Talking, I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui couldn't understand Cao Qing's temper, so they made promises repeatedly, "Eunuch Cao must be satisfied."

"It's so good. Eunuch Chen will make a statement later, and you have to draw a charge and issue a military order. How dare you?" Cao Qing asked.

"The villain is willing!" Yang Shiliang said.

Yang Shiliang and Zhou Bugui came out of the house, their close clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Old Zhou, what do you think of this new father-in-law?" Yang Shiliang asked Zhou Bugui in a soft voice after walking a long way.

Zhou Bugui said, "This Eunuch Cao is not simple. He seems to be very proficient in casting, and he can speak to the point every few words. You need to pay more attention to manufacturing. Otherwise, in the end, it will definitely be difficult to deal with. Moreover, this time After the matter is over, there must be a follow-up."

"How to say?" Yang Shiliang asked.

"Lao Yang, what do you think of the equipment built this time?" Zhou Bugui asked.

"It's very strange. The Bingzhan Bureau has never built such a device. It seems that it can be assembled into a complete set." Yang Shiliang said.

"Sure enough, I can't escape your old Yang's eyes. I think this whole set of equipment seems to be some kind of mechanical parts. I just don't know what it is for." Zhou Bugui said.
