1,000 blacksmith tables, does not mean that there are only more than 1,000 blacksmiths, this is a division of labor, in Baozhou, has been studied, generally speaking, it requires a master craftsman and a few helpers, and some necessary labor.

It's not that ordinary blacksmiths can't do labor, it's unnecessary, according to 3 shifts, 1,000 blacksmith tables need 3,000 masters, and nearly 10,000 ordinary craftsmen, which is quite a lot of pressure on manpower.

The Northern Song Dynasty has a lot of resources, there are many people who read and read, and there are many literate people, but there are not many qualified blacksmiths, because they still use the old iron-making methods, and they must have a certain amount of experience.

In fact, it has been simplified as much as possible, some key steps have been fixed, others, less professional, replaced by apprentices, helpers, and the least important labor, that is, ordinary people, which is the least skilled.

The shortage of more than 3,000 blacksmiths brought about 200 people in Baozhou, and they could all be used as the leading existence of blacksmiths, and in the Daimyo Mansion and the surrounding towns, 800 blacksmiths and 2,000 apprentices were recruited, and these people could act as the leaders of the group if they were trained for a period of time, and some of them who were about to leave could also be filled into the team.

In fact, it is very easy to recruit these people, not every blacksmith can open a blacksmith shop, and not every blacksmith shop can make money, with a minimum of 5 blacksmith wages, 2 apprentice wages, and about 1 kan laborers' wages, this is a very tempting number for everyone.

In such a situation, almost all the blacksmiths around flocked to it, even as far as Gyeonggi, and even those on Huainan Road.

On the canal, there is convenient and fast transportation, and there are channels for message transmission, and until now, people are still coming.

For these people, Zhao Xin will not refuse, the more professional and technical personnel, the better, even if this blacksmith workshop is full, it can also be applied to the Dinghai Navy.

Zhao Xin, who came out of the industrial society, is very clear about the effect of people, how to use more people, so that all can play an effect, is the key to the industrial society, and professional technical personnel, is a multiplier, a general worker and a professional technician, a professional technician and a technician, with the improvement of strength, they play a completely different effect in the industry.

At this time in the Northern Song Dynasty, it was impossible to produce a technician, and even professional technicians were impossible, but blacksmiths were rare professionals, especially in blacksmith workshops, which basically followed the old blacksmith smelting methods, but to a certain extent, slightly changed, and these professionals were needed.

There are 1,000 blacksmiths, but the one that fits the effect is 200, with the 200 from Miaojiazhuang as the main body, 200 platforms were opened first, and in the future, after the gradual run-in, the intensity of opening will be gradually increased, and finally all the opening state.

Of course, for the time being, it is impossible to follow the method of 3 shifts or 2 shifts, there are not so many people, first control the number of people at about 1000 people, and the blacksmiths who will be added in the future will also be put into some groups, temporarily adapted, until more than 1500 people, or even 1800 people, will be carried out in small batches of three shifts.

Before, in the small port, has begun to wait for the shore, but among the 20 ships that arrived in the early stage, there are almost more than 100 blacksmiths, they have settled down, the place to live is not very good, in the village next to it, rented about 20 houses, mainly high and low beds, and even these high and low beds are also used in the fortress during the Baozhou Mutiny.

Originally, it was possible that only three or five people could live in a room, even if it was a large bunk, but now, with high and low beds, it is almost doubled, and it is estimated that these people can barely settle down.

In the construction work, the construction of the house was put on the back, which is not necessary, and can be slightly delayed

, The blacksmiths have gradually come down, the blacksmiths do not carry many things, some necessary items, others, have long been under Wang Song's preparation, 20 days, maybe 1000 is unlikely, about 500 blacksmith tables, can still be made.

1,000 blacksmith tables, about 500 completed, these princes are quite simple, they don't have a room, just a simple shed, but they can be used.

The blacksmith's table was all new, and in this case, after they had simply settled down, they were put into labor, and those who had settled in front of them had been combined autonomously to form small groups, and thick black smoke rose up, and the whole workshop was in full swing.

For these blacksmiths, their monthly salary began on the day they began to work, and in the past, before they began, Wang Song gave a simple allowance and daily necessities, but this was quite different from the final earning.

How much can the subsidy be, a few pennies a day, even if it is three meals a day, it can't be all big fish and meat, just a basic, this is a big gap from the previous promise, if you are not ready, they can wait, now the blacksmith table is all together, there are materials, why not start work.

The material is this thing, Wang Song has already prepared, near the Daimyo's Mansion, there is no iron ore, however, the transportation is convenient, coupled with his early preparation, a batch of iron ore and coal have been accumulated by then.

Before Zhao Xin came, someone proposed, especially those newcomers, who were rejected by Wang Song, Wang Song knew that Zhao Xin would have a unified arrangement for everything, which was absolutely different from the traditional one, even if those blacksmiths threatened, they were unmoved, and they didn't start work until the blacksmiths who arrived in the early stage arrived.

Even for the sake of conservatism, he just asked Baozhou to come, formed a group, and sent at most some helpers.

At this time, there were almost more than 100 furnaces, emitting black smoke, and they had already started for two days, at first they were only skilled tools, and did not carry out fine processing, and the efficiency and quality also made the later blacksmiths stunned.

They themselves wanted to compare, but after seeing the efficiency and speed of the blacksmiths from Baozhou, none of them dared to speak, and honestly followed the study.

Obviously, all the processes are very simple, and they can do it, but on the contrary, the other party actually has such a high quality and success rate, especially the one who knows, the divine weapon of the popular daimyo's mansion is also the master smelting, and they dare not speak even more.

Every blacksmith has a pursuit, the magic weapon is their ultimate pursuit, during this time, the popular magic weapon in the aristocratic circle, but also more or less passed to the blacksmith's circle, some outstanding blacksmiths, even invited to test the quality of this magic weapon, it can be said that it is very admirable, now only do this weapon of the craftsman, standing in front of them, they dare not have the slightest presumptuous, obedient to follow the side to learn.

Zhao Xin for the traditional smelting method, not much change, in fact, iron smelting from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period began to appear, to the present, almost a thousand years of history, under the generation of intelligent craftsmen, the technology has been quite familiar, Zhao Xin made changes to it, not much in the procedure, more in the details and cognition.

Iron smelting, is to remove other compounds in the iron ore, leaving the elemental iron, this is a chemical process, under the action of high temperature and some other materials, gradually returning, this process has been very skilled, but from iron to steel, and then to the alloys of various materials, this is endless.

Iron can be transformed into alloys with carbon and other trace elements, using physical and chemical methods, and the alloy is actually not the same thing as iron, even the simplest steel.

Not to the material, for the alloy has a complete understanding, just relying on the experience of manual groping, can not promote the huge improvement of the material, Zhao Xin does not understand iron smelting, but he knows what steel is, clear about some of the tests and tried methods in later generations, with this method of adjusting the formula and recording the test results, and gradually summarized the law, which has surpassed this era.

This is also these blacksmiths, every step is known, but when combined together, they can't understand it, looking at the simple operation, the final result is completely different from what they imagined.

They don't know that these steps are summed up in the step-by-step experiment, step by step failure.

In the workshop, discipline is the most important, strictly suppress everyone's creativity, with mechanical, repeated methods, summed up a set of methods, in fact, from Miaojiazhuang every blacksmith, there is such a process, at first they do not understand, but the quality and final product, let them change.

That's right, in Miaojiazhuang, it's just the monthly salary, if you're willing to take this, it looks much higher than being a blacksmith before, but in fact, it can't be compared with the final number.

According to the average commission of 2 wen per catty, 400 catties a day is 800 wen, and the time of 30 days a month is 24 yuan, which is at least five times higher than the previous 5 yuan in a month.

Money is always the most important factor in attracting people, especially when they find that if they don't follow this, the efficiency will be reduced, and it will be reduced a lot, and the scrap rate will also be reduced, which will directly affect their income, and it will automatically change.

They are all blacksmiths, and the methods used are also customary, but they need to be adjusted in some subtle places, and in strict accordance with the operating procedures and discipline, under the temptation of money, as long as someone is willing to change, in the end, it will soon be out of the division, about two or three days, from about 200 to 600, only because the manufacture of the blacksmith platform can not keep up, this has slowed down, but the blacksmith workshop has entered the formal, steel began to produce large-scale. 21010
