Chapter 267: Do You Know How to Play Chess?
The rain that had been going to fall for a long time finally stopped, and the clouds in the sky dispersed a little, occasionally revealing a small patch of blue sky, and the sunlight took the opportunity to shine on the earth.
Cluitt and Ronnie walked back happily, their cart full of food, a little heavier, but still happy in their hearts.
There were two barrels of salted fish on the car, which was the main dish of the week at the Rationale Factory. Two buckets of potatoes, which I had last week, are also delicious when steamed, and can be salted. There were some vegetables, and two buckets of flour, and a jar of sugar, and that's what made the two of them happy.
It's been a long time since they've eaten bread - they've almost forgotten what it tastes like, and today they can eat it - and it's sweet, God forbid, Merry Christmas!
What used to be ordinary bread now knows how precious it is!
The two discussed on the way, and when they waited for the bread, they ate one portion, leaving the whole one for their parents to deliver.
They had seen that when the wharves were distributed, there were no barrels of flour in the coal mines.
The coal mines have been eating a type of brown rice with shredded sweet potatoes — the fish they eat is smaller and saltier. They also have vegetable soup -- the kind where many leaves are boiled together, and they add a kind of sauce to it, which is quite flavorful, better than raw.
Boiled water in the cafeteria is as you want to drink - after eating, everyone who drinks water has to line up. There are always overseers patrolling the canteen, and whoever dares to talk more will definitely be hit with a rattan.
At first they were in groups of four, then three, then two, but they were still vicious.
After dividing the delicious bread, Cluitt and Ronnie quietly slipped out of the marble factory.
Now there is no more clanging knocking in the marble factory, nor can you hear the terrible screaming and hissing - the circular saws used by the people of the Han and Tang groups can actually cut the marble - it is terrifying.
The two of them thought no one would be able to see them, but the lucky fool Selwin saw them at a glance. At this time, he was sitting on a pile of stones, smoking a cigarette with taste, and looked around, the cigarette must have been begged for from Director Han again.
"Cluitt and Ronnie! Where are you going?! "When he said that, he seemed to stand up—
"We went up the hill to touch the eggs and see if we had any catches – and maybe even mushrooms! Just now we saw that Director Han seemed to be looking for you-"
Cruitt and Ronnie finished speaking, and then walked away quickly.
This Selwyn likes to do a lot of things, and he always makes things worse, but there is an unexpected reward when he messes up - it makes people laugh and cry.
For example, if he touches the eggs, he will knock over all the nests, and the eggs will be broken - and then where the eggs will be broken, a clump of delicious mushrooms will appear; When he went to touch the fish, his finger was caught by a big crab and he was injured, so he actually touched a big crab.
Selwin was so bored now that he had slept all morning and had a delicious bread at noon. I have almost gotten rid of the fatigue of the week, and I really didn't expect that the rich men of Mingda 6 need so much for the stone slabs - and the Spanish businessmen and Macau businessmen also want it, but I don't know how much Lille the Hantang Group can earn.
However, there will be good things for Director Han to find himself.
Selwin patted his ass and walked to Director Han's office.
Director Han's big name is Han Lizi, and he is a native of Dalian in that world. I have been engaged in various businesses related to stone, and I met Akira Kaneike by chance, and later I applied for a job.
The marble resources in the northern region of Taiwan were strongly built by him at that time.
First of all, this is not because he wants to express his own sense of existence, but he really thinks that it is really a waste to put those marbles that are almost exposed to the surface - in that world, if you want to contract such a mine, even the relationship between the provincial governor is not enough-
The second is that the role of marble is not only decoration, take the enzyme laboratory that is being prepared in the Chiji area, and other more sophisticated laboratories - in the absence of that world, marble is the best pavement slab.
There is also the dust generated in the process of processing the marble, which is the best insulating filler under the current conditions, celluloid can also be added, and the bakelite can also be added in the future, which must be flame retardant, not to mention, but also increase the insulation of the exterior.
Didn't the plan be to soak sisal cloth in tung oil and then apply eucommia glue to insulate the wires? Then if you add a certain percentage of marble powder - the insulation effect must be better!
The third point is that marble scrap is also useful. Bigger ones build walls, build houses, pave roads, and smaller ones burn cement! The northern region of Taiwan will also have a cement project sooner or later, right?
After everyone saw the building, they all agreed.
In the end, the results of the construction of the marble factory showed that it was really useful, and it could almost be seen as a no-cost business - of course, some manpower was needed, especially the stonemasons still had to use it, and the Dutch stonemasons were really good, which was also considered to be the best use.
Some explosives are also needed, but because the marble is soft, it is not needed too much, and there are also some mechanical wear and tear problems, which are inevitable and no one cares.
But its output is much larger. Not to mention personal use, just selling marble slabs to the Zheng family, the Pan family, Spanish merchants, and Macao merchants is equivalent to building a cement factory.
If it weren't for the long-term development, Han Lizi, the director of the factory, would have arranged 7x24 production and processing - but the transportation is a little farther away than that of Gelanza City, but for sea transportation, the transportation cost is extremely low -
As the director of Han Lizi said in advance, the addition of marble powder to the wire insulation packaging really increases the insulation effect, which effectively promotes the localization of wire production.
The Red Star Industrial Zone says there is no pressure on the production and processing of copper wires. Although galvanized iron wire is definitely also available, but this makes the people of Hantang Group feel uncomfortable, copper, we are not without, simple electrolysis is not impossible for us to do, and then it is not very difficult to stretch, anneal, and stress relief - but the wire insulator is a big problem, this must be completely hand-operated, a little winding, this choice may be the best choice.
Director Han Lizi expressed satisfaction with the current production situation, in addition to the fact that he must personally operate the stone cutting machine and steam power maintenance, the rest of the stone preforming, grinding and other things, he handed over to the laborers to do it manually.
There are more than 100 people in the whole factory, half to half of the Ming laborers and half of the white laborers, and there are only four Ming security personnel - Han Lizi plans to let the four of them leave after Christmas, there is going to be a war, there must be more needs for them, as for the security problem, he really didn't take it seriously, everyone here is good, especially the white people who were supposed to be heavily defended, in fact, they are the best-Han Lizi knows why, so he doesn't embarrass them, just like the coal mining area, You can also take one day off a week.
When life went well, he picked up his hobby, and he liked the art of stone carving. First, I sharpened a pair of Go, which I didn't feel challenging, and then carved a pair of chess, which was nothing—and finally decided to make a pair of chess, and went straight to the three-dimensional one.
He was much more serious, and took some trouble to find a relatively pure black and white stone, first assembled the chessboard, and then drew a sketch of the chess pieces - the relevant numbers jù were all found in the database, and of course he learned some moves, and even knew what the Scottish opening and the Italian opening were.
He believes that if he does not fully understand the moves of each chess piece, he will not be able to carve the charm of the chess pieces at all.
In this way, he used all his spare time, and a little more than a month later, not long ago, he succeeded—the chess piece was indeed beautiful.
But it's not interesting to fiddle with it alone for a long time.
When he was on Dragon's Tooth Island, he became good friends with another technician, the man named Mabian.
Last time, for the sake of the girls of the Hantang Group to engage in cosmetics, he came to the northern region of Taiwan to find talc and kaolin, and prepared to go back to grind and use it.
The two took the time to drink a little wine together, talked for a long time, and commented on some policies of the Hantang Group one by one - it always makes people feel good to be free to comment on others.
The two of them got off the national elephant in Xingtou, but fortunately, both of them would be a little bit, so it was interesting. After the two fought together, they drew three to three, and the tiebreaker was drawn, and the two were even more sympathetic to each other, thinking that the opponent's chess strength was good.
The two did not show up, and when they were talking about current affairs, Ma Bangbala and Bala talked endlessly, and Han Lizi mostly listened; When playing chess, Han Lizi kept studying the details of each move, but the horse just listened, in fact, he couldn't remember it after playing.
The technician next to the horse ran across the sea, repaired the boat, and later sold cosmetics for various reasons, a person alone guarding the computer, waiting for the buyer, Taobao online store - to make money is to make money, but too aggrieved, and later when the Hantang Group recruited, the former seafarer colleagues took him with him.
It was precisely because he had worked in cosmetics that he was pushed out by everyone and assigned to support the production of girls' cosmetics. It caused him to run all the time.
The technician next to the horse took enough raw materials last time, so he didn't come over for a while, and Director Han Lizi was a little lonely.
Selwyn was mainly responsible for transporting marble raw materials, and he was really willing to contribute, and he never dared to affect the processing of marble. Especially when he saw Han Lizi's factory at the scene, he didn't stop until he was sweating profusely, and he often smiled with a smile on his face, as if he was doing something fun.
Director Han Lizi noticed him.
Director Han Lizi sighed in his heart, thinking, fuck, Lao Tzu worked for others back then, it was similar, the boss came to do a good job-
Director Han Lizi often praised him and gave him a cigarette to smoke. He's doing a lot more fun. This kid learns Mandarin quickly, and basically understands some commands.
One Sunday, Han Lizi's factory was fine, and when he saw Selwin on the rocks, he called him into the office and asked him if he would go down to the national elephant?
Selwyn didn't understand at the time.
After Director Han Lizi took out the chess piece, Selwin was happy and said that he had seen it.
Director Han Lizi was also happy, and he thought to himself that this chess spread to various parts of Europe through Central Asia and Arabia about the 1o century later, first to Italy, then to Spain and France.
By the end of the 11th century, it had spread throughout Europe. In the literature of the time, chess was listed as one of the "seven arts" of knightly education. The "Seven Arts" are horsemanship, swimming, archery, fencing, hunting, poetry, and chess.
But, Selwyn, do you say you can be a knight, I'm afraid even I can't dare to do it? I still have a college degree in automated production - although I have not been in the right major for many years -
Director Han Lizi made a move at that time and asked him if he would go down?
Sure enough, Selwin waved his hand and said, "Claire in the coal mining area will go down—"
The director of the factory Han Lizi first contacted the security personnel of the coal mining area, and learned that this Colair had always been honest, so he asked him to go to the coal mining area to find Coller, and when the Mingren security team sent Coller, the two began to play chess.
