Chapter 79
It is not too simple for people who can get the indicators, and they have some close relationships with the officialdom.
It is not prohibited to build bearings, but Gao Fangping does not want to be involved with these people with complex relationships. Therefore, he needs a "black blacksmith", which are low-priced and easier to control.
At dusk, the gangster sent back came back and said embarrassedly: "Sir, I asked you to find more people, but you were incompetent, so you only found two people to wait for use."
This was a bit beyond Gao Fangping's expectations.
The efficiency of the government has been low in all dynasties, and it is clear how big the demand among the people is. Ironwork workshops with franchise gain monopoly benefits and the price is cheating. Then, just like the black car that was popular in later generations, there were actually a lot of craftsmen and masters in the folk in the Song Dynasty.
But Gao Fangping was really surprised that he could not find a few black craftsmen in Beijing. This was as exaggerated as SH going out a thousand years later, when he couldn't call "Didi Taxi"!
"I did run to more than 30 dens. But I didn't find anyone and said I had traveled far away." Fu'an, who went with me, recognized the gangster's statement.
"Very strange..." Gao Fangping frowned and returned and went back and forth.
As a result, everyone lowered their heads and didn't understand why Gao Fangping suddenly cared about this matter so much.
At some point Gao Fangping stopped and walked: "Fu'an, you are experienced. Tell me where these craftsmen in Beijing might have gone?"
Fu'an thought for a while and said, "People who do black market business will not last long, nor will they stay in one place for too long, so some people can explain it when traveling far away."
Gao Fangping said: "But it will only be a small part, think about it again."
Fu'an said again: "After all, it is risky to do illegal business. Such people have a chance to be caught, and there are many people who are sent to serve as soldiers."
Gao Fangping nodded and said, "It's reasonable. Pei Yancheng's rule is quite strict. Master Liang Zhongshu cares about the voice of officials. In order not to affect the interests of the powerful people of the Daming Mansion, he will not be hated by the people of the Salt and Iron Department, and it is possible to make efforts to cure the black blacksmith. But it is not all, think about it again."
Fu'an said awkwardly: "I don't know the rest."
Gao Fangping said: "Lin Chong. You are not a local, so you don't attract attention. Take Niu Gao to the street market to inquire. You don't care how much it costs. I must know where these blacksmiths have gone with such a huge market demand."
This arrangement is because Lin Chong is powerful in martial arts and is not afraid of plotting, but in the world, people like Niu Gao who survived in the market are actually smarter. This is better to cooperate.
Gao Fangping turned to Xiao Liang's gang and said, "Go and tell Xiao Liang that I need records of two major counties. I want to know how many people have been assigned to serve as soldiers for cast iron in the past two years because of privately cast iron. This is a record of the situation."
The helper hurriedly went to find Liang Yanei.
"Sir, do you still need young people?" Two blacksmiths who are said to have good skills clasped their fists.
Gao Fangping handed them the four-dimensional bearing drawings he drew and said, "Study them and see if it is possible to create them."
The two guys colluded with the coach and finally gradually understood Gao Fangping's drawings.
Then they asked many questions carefully, and Gao Fangping said everything.
Finally, the two guys understood Gao Fangping’s intentions.
One of the experienced guys said: "The adults have a very novel idea and have never tried it before. However, in the experience of the villain, such things can be produced. However, the use of the axle involves load-bearing and long-term wear. The parts without forging cannot withstand tossing. However, if hand-strengthed forging, it is almost impossible to present a perfect geometric shape, that is, it is not round enough. Irregular shapes will aggravate wear. This is almost an unsolvable vicious circle."
Gao Fangping said: "I don't understand what you said, that's your business. I'm responsible for putting forward ideas, and you're responsible for turning my ideas into actionable reality. Don't be afraid of trouble, try more, use more brains, the bigger the brain, the better. Use the methods you can think of, cast different bearings for loading the vehicle experiment, and you can know which ones are better and those are worse. Then choose a few better ways, use different groups of people to develop separately, and slowly correct them in the process of practice. This process is called creation. Is it simple?"
The blacksmith took a deep breath: "There are too many people and money that will be needed."
Gao Fangping said: "I want money, and I will help you. The government asked me to ask you. Your only job is to open your brains, work hard and work hard. Are there any other questions?"
"It's gone."
The two guys spread their hands and were very satisfied that this adult was such a straightforward person. They felt that they had obtained a good meal.
Gao Fangping said: "Your family is just a good person. From today on, you will be the long-term workers of my Gao Mansion for fifteen years. In addition to enjoying fixed offerings, I will quickly study the reward and punishment system. As long as you are willing to create, my reward will not disappoint you."
The two guys were so happy that they didn't want it.
In this era, not everyone has the opportunity to be a long-term worker. Working in the family of officials is the second best profession, second only to officials who work in the government. As for being an official, it is certainly the best profession in ancient times, but it is still a waste of time for ordinary people.
"Why are you still standing there? Holding a hammer to open your brain?" Gao Fangping drove them away, and then the little loli also followed them curiously. She cared about her "pulley truck" the most.
This is really burning money, iron is a very expensive thing. After all, that thing can be used to mint coins directly, such as Shuzhong and Shaanxi 1 Xi, and iron coins are still being used instead of copper coins.
In addition to iron, coke is also a specialty for the government. These are all monopoly profits. If you don’t want to attract others’ attention, you must deal with them when you use these things in large quantities, so that the person in charge can keep them silent.
So this is not something that everyone can afford. The Song Dynasty entered the Iron Age very early, but did not rely on coke and iron to climb the industrial tree in large quantities. One of the reasons is that it is too expensive, the threshold is too high, and the government does not act. The creators of the people cannot easily explore and try it.
Another thing is that in ancient times, there was a society where secret recipes were rampant. Without a relatively fair reward and punishment system, it was difficult for others to share their inventions.
Gao Fangping gave them the order to open their brains and burn money. Then he believed that after a certain period of time, they would force them to solve the process problems of high-temperature furnaces. Bearings require marbles (steel balls), and that thing cannot be forged, so abrasive tools must be used. Therefore, for strength and durability, as long as you have money to burn in, you can force these guys with big brains to solve the problem of pouring technology and continuously improve the strength.
They are experts on these issues, so Gao Fangping will not show off. As long as he masters the rewards and whips and grits his teeth and spends money, he will produce results.
"The rich gangster has put on an official hat again, so it's easy to do things."
Gao Fangping laughed, but when he thought of the disappearing blacksmith, his face became burdened again, and he had a vague premonition that this problem would be very serious!
"The surname is Gao, are you here?" As I thought, a female scolding suddenly appeared outside the door.
Needless to ask, Liang Xiwen is here.
"Gao Fangping, are you here?" Liang Xiwen shouted again.
"No, don't bother me." Gao Fangping shouted.
Puff.
Liang Ximing outside covered his stomach and smiled, feeling that this kid was actually a very happy existence.
"Come out! Ask you if you have something to do!" Liang Xiwen shouted.
"If you have something to say, I will talk to you about ungrateful people." Gao Fangping said.
"Do you see if my breast is a white puppy?" Liang Xiwen said with excuses outside.
Hearing this, Guan Sheng and Fu'an disappeared with their necks shrank, leaving Gao Fangping to hold on in the yard.
"Stop talking nonsense here. Your dog has been lost for a few days. Now I am here to look for it in a pretentious manner. It is obviously trying to deceive me." Gao Fangping said smartly.
"Okay, it's really you. If you hadn't eaten by you, how could you know how many days have you been missing from Xiao Mimi?"
Amid the angry screams, Liang Xiwen rushed in without any ladylike demeanor, and chased Gao Fangping with a broom.
"Wow...ah...is it really?"
Gao Fangping was so pumped that he jumped around and began to get angry. At some point, he couldn't bear it anymore, beer beer-
Three punches knocked her to the ground.
Liang Xiwen was scared to tears, and she didn't expect that this man would beat the daughter of a senior official in the dynasty so rudely?
"My daughter's family has no elegant style and beats the imperial court officials. I am disciplining you on behalf of Liang Zhongshu."
Having said that, Gao Fangping was somewhat lacking in confidence when he saw her being beaten to tears.
Xiao Liang came back from the street market and happened to encounter this scene, so he hid outside the yard and watched secretly. He was extremely excited. Seeing that the beautiful lady who was usually noble and powerful was beaten by Gao Ge, Xiao Liang had a somewhat perverted mentality since he was a child and received great soothing and enjoyment. He even waited maliciously to see if his sister would be stripped naked by Gao Fangping.
Yan Qing also hid in the dark and watched, hating Gao Fangping as a scumbag, who didn't know anything about it, and actually responded to the noble beauty like this. But this person used his cunning methods to arouse a great response among the rich women in Beijing, and had many brainless fans, and the mistress Jia Xiaohong was one of them.
Liang Xiwen endured the pain again and stood up to wipe away the tears. She was afraid that she would be seen and caused trouble to Gao Fangping.
Looking at her actions, Gao Fangping's eyes turned black and he cried out inwardly, "Oh no, this girl fell in love with me."
Liang Xiwen has a good personality, and her appearance and figure are also the best choice, but she is Cai Jing's granddaughter. Getting too close to Cai Jing is indeed conducive to short-term work, but Gao Fangping knows that in the long run, it is equivalent to losing a lot, at least it is very unfavorable to see. Famous ministers in the Song Dynasty need to see themselves very much, otherwise it will be Zhao Tingzhi's fate.
The reason why Wang Anshi is awesome is that he is famous and controversial.
"The surname is Gao, how could you be like a talented man? You dare to hit me?" Liang Xiwen said, rubbing her eyes.
