The craftsman's workshop is located in the south of the city, only 100 meters away from the barracks and school field. Bubble *book* bar ()

The craftsman's workshop covers an area of very wide, about 100 meters long and 100 meters wide, of which the center is the place where Mo Yan led the craftsmen of the craftsman workshop to forge weapons and armor, occupying sixty percent of the area of the craftsman's workshop; On the left is Pu Yuan's armory, which is dedicated to testing new weapons, occupying half of the area; On the right is Ma Jun's Science and Technology Institute, which is specially allocated to Ma Jun to invent new gadgets, which also occupies half of the area.

The whole craftsman's workshop is divided into three parts, the center is lively and noisy, and the two sides are sparsely populated.

Rao is Moyan brought craftsmen, and there was a lack of craftsmen in Hanzhong.

When Zhang Gu served as the Taishou of Hanzhong, he did not pay attention to the cultivation of craftsmen, which made the craftsmen in Hanzhong have low skills, and they could only forge the most basic war swords and armor, and all the steel knives in Hanzhong were forged by craftsmen brought by Mo Yan. In other words, almost the entire workshop was made up of craftsmen brought by Mo Yan, and the original craftsmen in Hanzhong became apprentices to learn how to forge new steel knives.

Mo Yan received the news that Wang Can was coming, and immediately took Ma Jun and Pu Yuan to wait outside the door.

He knew that Wang Can was coming, and he was very happy.

In the past, Mo Yan lived in seclusion and devoted himself to forging weapons, but he was constrained by materials and money, and many things were ideas, but because there was no resources and money to support him, he could not achieve them. Now the resources in Hanzhong are all at the mercy of Mo Yan, don't worry about money, Mo Yan and Ma Jun and Pu Yuan can be said to be like a fish in water, and their lives are very nourishing.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Mo Yan saw that the carriage stopped at the door of the craftsman's workshop, and immediately greeted him.

Waiting for Wang Can to get out of the carriage, Mo Yan, Ma Jun and Pu Yuan respectfully bowed to Wang Can. Wang Can waved his hand and led a group of people to the craftsman's workshop, and as he walked, he asked, "Mo Lao, how is the craftsman's workshop working?" ”

Wang Can did not directly inquire about the repeater, but about the craftsman's workshop.

This is also a means to show that Wang Can cares about the craftsman's workshop and attaches great importance to the craftsman's workshop.

Mo Yan listened to Wang Can's words, and said excitedly: "Back to the lord, there are currently 30 craftsmen in the craftsman workshop who can skillfully forge steel knives, and 300 apprentices who are learning to forge. ”

Wang Can nodded and praised: "The development of the craftsman's workshop is inseparable from the efforts of Mo Lao, and Mo Lao has worked hard. I have also heard that although Pu Yuan and Ma Jun are capable and have their own strengths, they are both addicted to it when they are engaged in research, and rarely manage the affairs of the craftsman's workshop. ”

After Mo Yan listened, his wrinkled old face glowed with brilliant glory.

When Ma Jun and Pu Yuan heard this, they smiled awkwardly.

The two of them have their own advantages, Ma Jun is obsessed with invention, Pu Yuan is obsessed with forging steel knives, and they rarely manage the affairs of the craftsman's workshop, and almost everything is handled by Mo Yan.

Wang Can and Mo Yan talked for a while, and then changed the topic and asked, "Mo Lao, Zhong Degong said that the craftsman workshop invented a new type of repeater, but is it true?" ”

Mo Yan nodded and said, "That's true! ”

Wang Can was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Okay, with the repeating crossbow, Hanzhong has added another big weapon, and Mo Laogong is in the future." ”

Mo Yan shook his head and said, "My lord, the new type of repeater was invented by Deheng after observing the Qin crossbow and on the basis of the Qin crossbow, which is the credit of Deheng." ”

Wang Can didn't care about this, as long as he made a repeater, he smiled and said: "Deheng invented a new type of repeater, and he has made a great contribution. However, although Deheng has made great contributions, he does not have Mo Lao to preside over the overall situation, and Deheng cannot do things without distractions, and Mo Lao's achievements cannot be erased. ”

After hearing this, Ma Jun nodded thoughtfully.

For Ma Jun, a good environment is very important.

To make an invention and make a good idea, it not only requires financial support, but also requires countless energy. If Ma Jun has to manage the affairs of the craftsman's workshop and engage in invention and creation, it is difficult to put all his energy on invention. It is too difficult to manage a craftsman's workshop and be able to invent it.

Fish and bear's paws, you can't have both, that's the truth.

The group came to Ma Jun's Science and Technology Institute, where there were all kinds of new gadgets, all of which were conceived by Ma Jun.

Wang Can walked to the place where the repeater was placed, picked up the repeater, looked at it carefully, and then asked out loud: "Deheng, how powerful is the repeater you invented?" ”

Ma Jun replied: "My lord, this repeater is an improved version of the Qin crossbow, which is light and dexterous, and easy to carry. The attack power is also very strong, with a golden cracked stone within ten zhang, and an arrow through the throat within thirty zhang. As long as you use the repeater to aim, you will be able to hit every shot, and there will be no accidents. The repeater is not like a bow and arrow, there is no arm strength requirement, whether it is a strong body or a thin person, as long as the arrow is installed, the trigger bracket, can be fired. ”

Wang Can asked again, "How many arrows can be fired at one time?" ”

Ma Jun replied, "Five." ”

After Wang Can heard this, something about Zhuge repeater appeared in his heart, and it was rumored that the repeater invented by Zhuge Liang could fire ten bows and arrows at one time, which was extremely powerful. After a moment of silence, Wang Can asked again: "Deheng, can't you fire more arrows, eight?" Or ten? ”

Ma Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "My lord, after the crossbow is forged, the arrows used are all exclusive iron bows and arrows, the length and thickness are all specific, once there are more than five bows and arrows, they cannot be launched at one time." After a pause, Ma Jun said: "It's not impossible to fire ten bows and arrows, but the existing repeater needs to be modified so that the repeater can accommodate ten bows and arrows, and the weight and size of the modified repeater will change greatly, which is likely to be not conducive to light carrying." ”

After Wang Can heard this, he also nodded.

It is definitely not appropriate to ensure that the crossbow can fire ten arrows in a row, and improve all aspects.

Wang Canhu asked, "Deheng, can the crossbow have a name?" ”

Ma Jun replied: "There is no name yet, since the lord is here, please name the lord." ”

Wang Can thought for a while and said, "Since the repeater was made by you, it will be named after you, and from now on, this repeater will be called 'Ma Jun Crossbow'." ”

After hearing this, Ma Jun looked excited, and a happy look appeared on his face.

It is undoubtedly the greatest honor to be able to be the name of a weapon under your own name.

Mo Yan stood aside, saw that Ma Jun was stunned, and hurriedly thanked Ma Jun: "Thank you, lord!" ”

Seeing this, Ma Jun also hurriedly thanked Wang Can.

Mo Yan's eyes flashed, and he said, "My lord, since you have the Ma Jun crossbow, you should also name the steel knives used by the soldiers!" ”

Wang Can's gaze swept over the three of them, nodded and said, "The steel knife was forged by the three of you together, and it seems too glorious to take your name and give an order." I think so, I named it after the word 'Han' in Han, called 'Han Dao', which not only has the meaning of Hanzhong, but also the meaning of my Han Dynasty, what do you think? ”

Mo Yan, Ma Jun and Pu Yuan's expressions were slightly disappointed, but they still thanked him: "Thank you, lord!" ”

In any case, it is good that the forged steel knife has a name, and it can be passed down through the ages.

Wang Can looked at Ma Jun and asked, "Deheng, how many crossbows have been made so far?" ”

Ma Jun raised his index finger and shook it.

Wang Can said happily: "Made a hundred handles? ”

Ma Jun shook his head and said, "My lord, the device of the repeater is very delicate, and if you want to make it in large quantities, you need many people to work together to complete it. It took him a month to make ten repeaters, which was already the fastest speed, and the other craftsmen in the workshop didn't know how to make more repeaters, which was very time-consuming. ”

Wang Can thought about it, and the battle with Liu Yan was imminent, and the creation of a repeater in a short period of time would undoubtedly improve the strength of the 'wolf fang'.

Therefore, Wang Can instructed: "Deheng, give you ten days, and you must make a hundred repeaters within ten days." The manpower and resources of the Craftsman's Workshop are at your disposal, and no matter what, the task must be completed within ten days. ”

Ma Jun's face turned bitter and said, "Lord, you are a strong man!" ”

Wang Can shook his head and said, "There are difficulties to overcome, and I am confident that you can complete the task within ten days." ”

Ten days is already the limit given by Wang Can. Now that the war with Liu Yan is about to break out, it is impossible for Wang Can to drag on for too long.

Ma Jun smiled bitterly twice, and could only agree to come down.

Wang Can asked again: "Mo Lao, how is the steel knife forged?" ”

Mo Yan said: "Don't worry, as of last month, the weapons of the Hanzhong Army have been renewed. All the soldiers' weapons were replaced with 'Han knives', and even the eight hundred soldiers in the broken barracks under General Zhao's command were each equipped with a Han sword. ”

Wang Can nodded, and then said, "Let's go, let's go and see the craftsman forging Han swords." ”

After saying that, the group walked to the craftsman's workshop.

In the room where the weapons were forged, the temperature was very high and it was very hot. All the craftsmen who forged the weapons were shirtless and naked, and when they shouted and swung the hammer, beads of sweat the size of beans kept seeping out of their bodies, and the sweat rained down and wet the clothes under them, and it was very hot.

Walking in the house, the sound of tinkling keeps ringing.

Wang Can walked inside, while comforting the craftsman who was forging weapons.

After walking around, Wang Can found that everyone was working alone, so he asked: "Mo Lao, there are three hundred apprentices and thirty craftsmen here, how long does it take for an apprentice to forge weapons alone and take charge of one side alone?" ”

Mo Yan didn't think about it, and said: "Those with outstanding talent can become teachers in one year, and those with outstanding talents can become teachers in three years." ”

After Wang Can heard this, he felt a terrible toothache.

It takes three years to train a craftsman, which is too long.

After a moment of silence, Wang Can said, "Mo Lao, what do you think of this?" It would be better to divide the three hundred apprentices, let's say three hundred people into ten groups, and let them learn a technique, some of them are responsible for calcination, and some are responsible for the cooling of weapons. Everyone is assigned a job and performs their own duties, so that the assembly line forging steel knives can not increase the speed? ”

After Mo Yan heard this, he squinted his eyes slightly, and his cloudy eyes flashed with Dao essence.

After a long time, Mo Yan said with emotion: "Lord, the method you said is indeed feasible, and it can also improve the speed. ”

Speaking of this, the expression on Mo Yan's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "This method is okay for a short time, but if you use it for a long time, it is undoubtedly an undesirable method to kill chickens and take eggs." If each apprentice only has a little skill, in the long run, there will be no blacksmith like Ou Yezi and Ganjiang. Because no one has learned all the methods of forging and cannot forge better weapons. Therefore, this method of development is desirable on the surface, but it cannot be used as a long-term solution. ”

After Wang Can heard this, he was also shocked.

Touching the stubble under his chin, Wang Can suddenly smiled.

Seeing this, Mo Yan asked, "Lord, why are you laughing?" Could it be that he said the wrong thing? ”

Wang Can smiled and said: "Mo Lao's words are correct, but Mo Lao has misunderstood one thing. We can do the same as the common people, and when we fight, we separate the apprentices, perform their duties, and hurry up the production of weapons. When the truce is made, it will not make any difference if it is restored and all the apprentices have learned all the forging methods. ”

Mo Yan stroked his palms and smiled: "The lord is wise, and he admires it!" ”

Wang Can smiled and said, "Okay, hurry up and make a repeater, and I'll send someone to get it in ten days." ”

After finishing speaking, Wang Can left with Cheng Yu.
