Chapter 412 Create a carriage

At the end of October, the temperature in Ganzhou had suddenly dropped. The smell of winter could be smelled in the northwest wind that slowly began to rage in the air. The leaves in the ash forest on the mountain behind the manufacturing bureau had fallen out. Looking around, the whole mountain was bare, with only straight ash guns standing, like sentinels.

The temperature is getting colder, but the manufacturing process is in full swing...

In the blink of an eye, Yan Liqiang had been to the manufacturing bureau for eight days.

During these eight days, he didn't go anywhere. In the Manufacturing Bureau, he either discussed the carriage craftsmanship and design with a craftsman in the Manufacturing Bureau every day, or inspected various workshops or yards, inspected and supervised the work that the craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau were doing. Although Yan Liqiang was called the Supervisor, in fact, if those who entered the Manufacturing Bureau did not tell them about Yan Liqiang's identity, those people often regarded Yan Liqiang, who was wearing craftsman clothes, often covered with carbon ash or wood chips on their clothes, and occasionally had a little glue paint on their hair as an apprentice in the Manufacturing Bureau.

For example, the two village chiefs of Hepingba Village, Shugang Village, who were invited to the Manufacturing Bureau for the first time to talk about things a few days ago, when they saw Yan Liqiang walking past them, they did not look at Yan Liqiang at all, but were nervous and excited to go to see Qian Su.

In Huanglong County, the name of Qianyingjian is at the same level as the county magistrate. In the eyes of the village chiefs of those two villages, they are both big names.

Qian Su's proposal was as unreal as the two village chiefs for the first time. They had never expected that such good things would fall on them. The masters of the Manufacturing Bureau taught their villagers' skills. Then they came to the craftsmanship camp to collect some raw materials and prepare some things themselves. Finally, they made the things. As long as the quality was qualified, the Manufacturing Bureau actually paid for recycling. Everything was signed, with black and white words, real money and silver. The Manufacturing Bureau was simply giving them money. If Qian Su had not looked like a fool, they would almost suspect that Qian Su had an abnormal mind or had encountered a liar.

Needless to say, the two village chiefs returned happily. The next day, they sent sedan chairs and chariots to pick up craftsmen from the craftsman camp to their village to spread their skills. They beat drums and drums all the way, making the noise very loud, just like marrying a new wife, making people feel like crying or laughing...

While several craftsmen from the craftsman camp went to Hepingba Village, Shugang Village to teach craftsmanship, the workshops and yards in the craftsman camp, from the carpenter courtyard to the blacksmith courtyard, as well as the lacquer workshop, and even the cobbler workshop, there were roars of harsh lions every day in the past few days. The craftsmen in the craftsman camp, from the craftsman head to the ordinary craftsmen below, all experienced the greatness of the seemingly good-tempered harsh lion roar.

"The wood used in this carriage can be seen by our eyes, so use the best wood. What wood is expensive and what wood is expensive, so don't save me money... The seven-star sandalwood in Qiyun Mountain is the most expensive. Okay, then use the seven-star sandalwood in Qiyun Mountain... The cars we are building now are for those rich people to sit on. Just think about the materials that rich people like. I'll say it again. This is not an ordn't use the set of ordnance. What, you don't know what kind of materials that rich people like. Then look at my mouth shape and remember the pronunciation of this word. It's expensive, brother is expensive, do you understand..."

...

"Accuracy, what I want is accuracy, do you understand? Remade it all for me. The accuracy of the metal bushing on the steering wheel under the car is only more than the size of two hairs. Even if it is not qualified, no matter how much time you take, it will be re-done and destroyed. In the future, use this as a rule for producing this part in the future. Don't ask me if I can use such a question..."

...

"What does it mean to have painted three times? This gloss is not enough. You lacquer workshops, don't treat this as something on a carriage, but as a lacquerware. If you don't paint three times, just paint five times, and if you don't paint five times, just paint ten times. Remember, there must be light. When will your black paint surface be polished and waxing, you can make it clear like a mirror after being polished and waxing, and when will it be qualified..."

...

"Brother, this is the silver handle installed on the car door. What I want is generous and exquisite. What do you do with such things like an axe handle used by an executioner? What do you don't know what generous and exquisite mean? Well, do I draw the picture? You do it according to the picture I draw... If you can't make it, you say you can eat what you make... Don't eat it, this is silver. If you eat it, you will have money and death. If you can't make it, you will run around our manufacturing bureau three times with your butt barely..."

...

"Plaided flower, you don't know what it is, that is, you make small grids and small grids in the middle of this wood, and then in those grids... it's not paper, what do you do with paper? You think it's your window, this is a luxury carriage. How can you use paper for the carriage window? What can you use paper without paper? Let me tell you, use glass sheets, those red, blue, green, and blue glass sheets, polish them out, and inlaid them on the grids left on your windows, and piece them together into beautiful patterns. It's called piecing, do you understand..."

...

Various workshops and yards were busy working hard. In the blacksmith workshop that Yan Liqiang personally participated, according to the plan provided by Yan Liqiang, after thousands of experiments and adjustments by a group of craftsmen day and night, on the sixth day after Yan Liqiang arrived at the blacksmith workshop, the coil spring in Yan Liqiang's mind was finally manufactured. As a by-product of the manufacturing of coil springs, spring steel was also produced in the blacksmith workshop.

There were no flowers and no applause. All of this was secret. Only Yan Liqiang, Qian Su, and several craftsmen who participated in the spring experiment knew that after rewarding several craftsmen who participated in the spring manufacturing, each of them was 50 taels of silver, the courtyard where the blacksmith workshop where the spring-making blacksmith workshop was located naturally became the highest level of confidentiality in the entire manufacturing bureau. Those craftsmen also received a "military order" that they would not disclose the secret of spring manufacturing at any time.

On the eighth morning when Yan Liqiang came to the manufacturing bureau, Yan Liqiang completed his morning class, practiced Yijin and marrow cleaning meridian, had breakfast in his yard, and then Qian Su, who was smiling, came to Yan Liqiang.

"Uncle Qian, it's so early, have you had breakfast?" Yan Liqiang greeted Qian Su.

"I've eaten!" Qian Su smiled mysteriously, "Let's go, I'll take you to see a good thing!"

"Oh, what is it?"

"You'll know when you go!"

Yan Liqiang didn't think much about it, so he followed Qian Su away from the yard where he lived, and then went directly to a small square in the manufacturing bureau.

When Yan Liqiang arrived, he found that there were crowds of people in the small square, and the entire manufacturing bureau had arrived. Everyone stood silently around the small square, and he was the last person to come.

A black four-wheeled carriage is quietly placed in the middle of the small square, shining with an invisible and compelling brilliance.

When he saw the black four-wheeled carriage, Yan Liqiang was in a daze, and he felt like he was traveling through time and space, because the four-wheeled carriage was exactly the same as the four-wheeled carriages of European courts and nobles that Yan Liqiang saw in film and television dramas in his previous life. The things he drew on paper turned into real objects for the first time and appeared in front of him.

At this moment, Yan Liqiang had the illusion that he was a magic pen Ma Liang...
