"There are a lot of people who use this in their workshops, and there are a few of them in Nanyang, and they are very secret, for fear that others will steal it, and the small ones will sneak in to see it, and they will laugh at it, isn't this the structure of our mill water mill? It's just that our Daming's water mill rotates horizontally with the help of water, and they add a gear to rotate vertically. Zhu Xingshu replied with a smile, and the answer with Zhao Jin made Zhu Xingshu feel very relaxed, but he didn't expect such a young hero to know how to make a craftsman and understand each other, which made Zhu Xingshu excited.

Zhao Jin patted the table and said appreciatively: "I don't know how many people have seen the hydraulic mill, maybe there are a few people who know it like you, it's really talented!" ”

This words of praise made Zhu Xingshu's body tremble, his face turned red at first, and then he became embarrassed, the word "great talent" in this world is given to people with Wen Taowu strategy, what does it have to do with a craftsman.

Zhao Jin's appreciation did not end, he tapped the table there, and said: "You can think more about other hydraulic machinery, you can make forging hammers, presumably you can also build others, our people are not enough, build more machinery, let our people do other things, this is a good thing that everyone is happy about." ”

Wang Zhaojing and Ruhui both felt strange, but they were just curious about why Zhao Jin was happy, remembering that the last time Yu Shan took out the improved gun carriage, Zhao Jin was always excited about the new craftsmanship, which was completely different from the calmness of other times.

And Xu Housheng has been frowning and pondering, Wang Zhaojing glanced at it quietly, and said in his heart that this uncle and young master can know the severity, if he is jealous and angry because his brother-in-law praises other people's uncles, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the future, but there is no need to say such things now.

"Brother-in-law, this water-powered machine, we are afraid that there is no such water flow here in Xuzhou, if we dig up the soil and pile up the reservoir, it will be too labor-intensive." Xu Housheng voiced his worries.

Hearing this, Wang Zhaojing and Ruhui exchanged glances, they didn't understand how the hydraulic drive machinery was, but how much labor would be needed to build a new reservoir, they knew in their hearts, no matter how big or small the reservoir was, the labor cost would be huge.

Zhao Jin nodded, Xu Housheng said very reasonably, Xuzhou and the surrounding terrain are extremely flat, so even if the water flow of the Yellow River is very gentle, those smaller rivers are not much hydraulic, in this case, we can only consider artificial water storage to cause a more powerful water flow, so as to drive hydraulic machinery.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is okay, there is no available water flow, we can use cattle and horses, and the livestock are enough to move, the small ones came to Xuzhou, but they saw a lot of cattle and horses and big livestock, this is the first one in the south!" Zhu Xingshu has already been recorded.

There were smiles on the faces of everyone in the house, there was a trade route of soju selling to the grassland, and there was a relative shortage of cattle, horses and livestock south of the Yellow River, Xuzhou would not be less, and others did not understand it very well, but Zhao Jin and Xu Housheng could already think of how animal power could drive machinery.

"Okay, good, Master Zhu, you not only know how to work, but also know how to innovate and transform, but also adapt measures to local conditions, this is amazing, you just came not long ago, but I can boast that the whole world, from the Ming Dynasty to the Wa Kingdom to the South Seas, and even to the west to the white people in Europe, can not find a place that attaches more importance to craftsmen than me, as long as you do it well, you can have food and clothing, as long as you have your own craft, then you can be rich, if you can innovate and transform, I can say that the future is limitless, what money and material support do you need in the future, Even if you talk to the Welfare Son, we will give you all your support here! Zhao Jin said loudly, and these words provoked everyone sitting together to look at them again, thinking that these words were too heavy.

Everyone looked at Zhu Xingshu again, the promotion in the Zhao Zi camp pays attention to merit qualifications, step by step, and being promoted quickly must have great merit, this is good, I just made a few things here to send them, and many of them are still foreigners' methods, and they were actually praised to this Cheng dù.

I thought that Zhu Xingshu would kneel down flattered, or be shocked and at a loss, but Zhu Xingshu stood there scratching his head with his hands, his face was full of confusion, and even looked at Zhao Jin with some rudeness.

In the end, Zhu Xingshu bowed his hand and said very respectfully: "Jin Ye, if you are presumptuous and rude in the novel, these small things are just small ways, are they worth paying so much attention to Jin Ye?" ”

"It's worth it, the things you make will make the battlefield decisive, and the things you make can save countless manpower and bring ten thousand taels of gold, aren't these worth valuing? You can get all this because you have invented and improved so many things, you are the source, because you have these, how is it not worth it! Zhao Jin said formally.

Wang Zhaojing and Ruhui glanced at each other, they both knew that Zhao Jin valued craftsmanship and craftsmanship, but they didn't expect it to be so important, which made them a little incomprehensible, after all, in the education they received since childhood, they still put farming and warfare first, but Zhao Jin's attention also brought various benefits to Zhao Ziying, and everyone naturally supported it.

The two of them didn't have much feeling, but Xu Housheng, who was sitting at the bottom, was full of excitement, and Zhu Xingshu, who was standing there, was stunned at first, and then shocked, with complicated feelings on his face, and he was silent for a while before he hugged his fists and said: "Jin Ye, my lords, I have been poor since I was a child, and I don't remember any ancestors, and I don't want to do anything about honoring my ancestors, but after learning the craft to support myself, I always feel that this is a shame, I can't raise my head in front of people, and it's not very glorious to say it. I know that this craftsman can also be so decent, and he can also inherit his family, I don't remember my ancestors, but I can make my descendants proud of me......"

After saying a few words incoherently, Zhu Xingshu solemnly hugged his fists again, was deeply courteous, and said solemnly: "Originally, I blamed that Li Laohai for forcing me to come to Xuzhou to do things, but now look, that Li Laohai sent me to a blessed land, and I will do things faithfully for Lord Jin in the future!" ”

Only as a craftsman, will he be touched by Zhao Jin's attention, and will have the idea of "treating me as a countryman, and I will repay the king as a countryman".

After saying this floor, the atmosphere in the room became a lot more relaxed, Zhao Jin directly arranged a seat for Zhu Xingshu, this move let everyone know that Zhao Jin valued it, and then it was originally gossip, but Xu Housheng followed Zhu Xingshu's words.

In his position, Xu Housheng's temperament is very gentle and weak, but in charge of the craftsman hall, he has to fight for resources and support for his own scene, if he doesn't do this, he can't control the bottom, and the top won't be optimistic, whether he wants to or not, he has to be pushed forward to do things.

"Big brother, this method of frying and refining costs a lot of coal and iron, and it is good to say that it is good to build weapons and armor, but this fire gun must use wrought iron, and it is already good that more than 20 catties of pig iron can make two catties of wrought iron, and it also requires a lot of labor, and the Xu family iron has to do farm tools-related business, and the supply of iron has been fighting, and there are not enough apprentices here, so I don't arrange people to learn now, close to those people in the school, and in another ten or twenty years, I'm afraid it will not be enough."

After hearing what Xu Housheng said, Zhao Jin couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is a fight for iron and people with agricultural reclamation!" ”

The demand for farm tools and labor apprentices are naturally needed by the farms under the Department of Agricultural Reclamation, and the first construction of each grange has a large demand for farm tools, and the manpower is even more so, don't look at the tens of thousands of people under Zhao Ziying, but everyone has an arrangement, and there are not many people on the ground in three provinces and one state.

Ruhui laughed, and her tone was quite gentle: "Xu Gongzi is also in trouble here, but our Zhao Ziying's new grange farm tools are still insufficient, and they are not all complete, and next year's spring plowing will be delayed. ”

The content of the words is not allowed at all, the resources below his own family are already nervous, why should he let it, and this Xu Housheng did not rely on the identity of his wife and brother to oppress people, but with a business-like attitude, then everyone will follow the rules of business.

"The Xu family is currently best trying to build farm tools, as for the number of apprentice craftsmen, I think Mr. Cao's mention is good, we can go to Shandong, Henan and other provinces in Nanzhili to recruit, whether it is this preferential treatment, or this salary and treatment, who can compare." Wang Zhaojing said with a frown.

After Xu Housheng transferred to the craftsman hall, he basically broke away from the Xu family's iron business, and the firearms workshop has absorbed the main force of the Xu family's skilled hands, and there is no reason to cut off the other craftsman forces of the Xu family, although Xu Zhenzhen has been building yì Zhao Jin completely swallowed the Xu family and took down all the resources that can be used, but Zhao Jin still doesn't want to do so much, the Xu family still has various houses and branches, and there is a huge coal and iron business, and helping Zhao Ziying can be regarded as sparing no effort, swallowing it like this, the reputation is very bad.

And Zhao Jin has other considerations here, outside of Zhao Ziying's manufacturing system, to maintain the storage of another family, this is not a bad thing, in a sense, the current Jingshan Xu family is actually another manufacturing force in Zhao Jin's hands, the two merge together, although there will be good results, but there will also be drawbacks, at present, there are more disadvantages in one place.

Of course, after Xu Housheng's subordinates have their own situation, they must hope that this situation will become stronger and stronger, swallow up competitors, and strengthen themselves, which is his own consideration.

"Third brother, Mr. Cao, just call me Xiao Xu, I can't be called this Xu Gongzi in front of the two......" Xu Housheng got up and said politely, but when he was about to argue, he was interrupted by Zhao Jin.
