Xiguan, Mashacang Street.

The renovation of the Tianbao watch factory has not yet been completed, but the door has been done, turn into the alley at a glance and you can see the four big characters of the Tianbao watch factory, the inner wall of the door is posted with the Yuanqi Bank's staff promotion welfare system - the top stock system, a group of watch workshop shopkeepers and apprentices after seeing, three or five push and discuss.

The Wu family paid 400,000 yuan to buy 20% of the shares of Tianbao Watch Factory has long been rumored, undoubtedly to Tianbao Watch Factory to do the best publicity, a group of watch workshop shopkeepers apprentices have been invited, most of them are out of curiosity, want to see what this 2 million worth of workshops looks like, of course, but also want to know what kind of impact this watch factory will bring to their workshop.

After seeing the top stock system posted, the intention of easy contentment is already self-evident, a group of apprentices are tempted by a lot, the apprentice is like a little daughter-in-law who has just passed the door, if you want to become a mother-in-law, become a shopkeeper, you have to have a long journey, even if you can make clocks and watches independently, but also give the master a good job for a few years, there is such a long time in the Tianbao watch factory I am afraid that you can top three or four percent of the body.

However, a group of shopkeepers, but there are few temptations, can open a watch workshop owners, are have exquisite craftsmanship, but also have full confidence, and the workshop production of clocks is simply in short supply, a year can easily earn more than 100 oceans, who wants to come to Tianbao watch factory to work for people?

In order to prevent the apprentice from being poached, many shopkeepers have said goodbye to Wu Changqing, which can make Wu Changqing anxious, his task is to stabilize everyone, in a hurry, he hurriedly raised his voice: "How much is your watch workshop worth?" Is there anyone who can get 20,000 yuan? ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their so-called workshop is just a master with a few apprentices, purely a small family-style workshop, not to mention 20,000 yuan, 2,000 yuan is not worth it, and a slightly larger workshop with a slightly larger number of people is not worth 1,000 yuan, and immediately someone said: "Wu Gongzi said that he laughed, how can our small workshop be worth 10,000 yuan?" ”

"The watch workshops in Guangzhou also have a little understanding of them, and none of them can be worth 2,000 yuan." Wu Changqing said loudly: "The Wu family's silver is not blown by the wind, why are you willing to value this Tianbao Watch Factory, which is still an empty shell, at 2 million yuan, do you know the reason for this?" ”

These words really aroused everyone's curiosity, the scale of Tianbao Watch Factory is not small, but it is worth tens of thousands of oceans if it tops the sky, the Wu family is the richest man in the Thirteen Lines, Wu Bingjian is famous for his shrewdness, why is Tianbao Watch Factory so overestimated? For a while, everyone turned their heads and whispered about each other.

Someone couldn't help but shouted: "Wu Gongzi, don't hang our appetite, you might as well say it clearly." ”

Wu Changqing smiled and said: "Because the big shopkeeper of Tianbao Watch Factory is also good at making clocks and watches, and his craftsmanship in making clocks and watches is unmatched in Guangzhou and even in our Qing Dynasty." ”

As soon as the words fell, the audience was silent, how old was Yi Zhicontent? Eighteen! How dare he claim to be unparalleled in the world in the art of making clocks and watches? If you don't believe it, why did the Wu family value Tianbao so high? If you want to believe it, it's too unbelievable!

After a while, someone asked, "I don't know where the shopkeeper Yi came from?" ”

"I don't know."

"I wonder how Shopkeeper Yi convinced the Wu family that his craftsmanship in making clocks and watches is unparalleled in the world?"

Wu Changqing said with a smile on his face: "The shopkeeper of Yi Da will arrive later, he will prove it to everyone, in addition, we have already chartered the Four Seas Restaurant, and ordered a good banquet for everyone present, and I hope you will enjoy your face." ”

No one wants to leave this time, the banquet doesn't matter, the problem is easy to be content, if the craftsmanship of making clocks and watches is unparalleled in the world, and the scale of Tianbao Watch Factory is so large, it is very likely to endanger their livelihood, since they are here and don't figure it out, how can they rest assured?

Yi Zhixiang didn't let everyone wait for a long time, but after half an hour, he hurried over, and when he saw him coming, Wu Changqing hurriedly greeted him, and the thief smiled: "Everyone is shouting to leave, I have to brag about your clock-making skills are unparalleled ......in the world." ”

"Unparalleled in the world?" Yi Zhixiang smiled and said, "You really dare to say it, but it's not a boast, we really have the ability to be unparalleled in the world." After a pause, he continued: "Invite everyone to come today, if you don't show some real skills, I'm afraid it will be difficult to recruit them all into Tianbaolai." ”

The two talked all the way into the door, and the people who saw it surrounded them, and Yi Zhizu shook his head and said, "There are some trivial things in Yuanqi Bank that have been delayed, and you are tired of waiting for ...... for a long time." ”

Before he finished his politeness, someone couldn't wait to say: "I heard that the art of making clocks and watches is unparalleled in the world, I don't know if it may open our eyes?" ”

Yi Zhizu glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "You are all experts in making clocks and watches, I really don't dare to let you open your eyes at will, if you want to see the real thing, it is impossible, it is impossible to reveal a little." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Tianbao Watch Factory is mainly engaged in the production of pocket watches, and you are all experts, so I will briefly talk about what is the core of determining the quality of pocket watches?" Undoubtedly, it is the escapement, the performance of which directly affects the accuracy of a pocket watch, which is not only the most difficult and time-consuming part of a pocket watch to make, but also the most expensive.

Most of the pocket watch escapements used today are the double escapement and the lever escapement, the latter being more advanced, more impact-resistant and more stable, but it must be a headache to precisely adjust the angle of the lock and punch faces, because this adjustment process is extremely costly. ”

There is a way is an expert to stretch out his hand, then know if there is, easy to be content as soon as he speaks, everyone will know that he is an expert in watch making, to know that the most difficult lever escapement is to accurately adjust the angle of the lock surface and the punching surface, this angle is slightly deviated, even if it is only the slightest, will affect the accuracy of the pocket watch, if the deviation is slightly larger, it will be scrapped directly, it has always been easy not to pass on the craft, and the apprentice who has not been taught does not know these at all.

After a pause, Yi Zhixiang smiled and continued: "Trimble has developed a new type of lever escapement, which completely eliminates this costly adjustment process. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was as if a scoop of cold water was poured into the boiling oil pot, and the audience was in an uproar, what does this mean? This means that the price of pocket watches will be greatly reduced! This means that the production time of pocket watches will be greatly reduced! It means that Tianbao Watch Factory is completely able to monopolize the watch market!

Seeing that everyone reacted so fiercely, Wu Changqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't know anything about pocket watches, but he roughly understood, Yi Zhishu improved the core components of pocket watches, just look at the reactions of these people, this improvement should be very profitable, this guy is not bragging, he has to quickly finalize the matter of buying shares.
