Chapter 305 Kang's new rules, breaking the old and establishing the new
In fact, there are rulers today, and carpenters and blacksmiths use them, but these rulers are not standardized. Some are sixteen centimeters, and some are more than twenty centimeters...
This ruler completely fails to meet his requirements.
So, he wants to build a new ruler!
From above, Wang Kang got a length of one meter and measured it with a hemp rope equally. Then he divided the hemp rope into three sections, and the length of each section was one foot!
After one foot came out, a craftsman soon carved it out with wooden strips.
After that, Wang Kang divided the wooden strips equally, got half a foot, and then divided the half foot into five parts evenly, so another unit was out, inch!
Then, Wang Kang ordered people to make ten identical pieces based on the earliest equal amount of one foot of wood, then splice them, and use a longer one to measure them.
From this we draw the third unit, zhang!
Then he divided the inch into tens and obtained the fourth unit.
This makes it clear that one zhang is ten feet, one foot is ten inches, and one inch is ten!
After finishing everything, Wang Kang picked up the made wooden ruler and spoke to the people around him: "This is the latest one!"
It was originally in the county government office, and apart from the craftsmen Wang Kang found, many others were also watching.
It was not until this moment that they knew what Young Master Kang was going to do, and they turned out to be a new ruler.
What does this mean?
There is a ruler in advance, and judging from what Mr. Kang made, it seems to be quite different from what he originally did.
More people are wondering, in fact, there is no ruler at home in ordinary people, and even some craftsmen rarely use it.
Relatively speaking, they are more accustomed to using hemp ropes, or use their own hands, steps, and experience to measure.
But this will inevitably lead to inconsistency or errors...
As if seeing the doubts of the crowd, Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "Everyone may know that I customized the scale a few days ago. Today, the new teacher mobilized the crowd to create such a ruler."
"I tell you, this is not just a simple ruler, but a new length standard for my post-economic production and construction in Xinfeng County!"
"Unified, standardized, and rigorous are the goals I want to achieve."
Wang Kang's tone was unquestionable, "Our Xinfeng County is now under vigorous construction. Some people may know that during the new construction process, there have been many problems due to measurement errors!"
"The bricks of the same furnace are the same, but there are differences when a new furnace is released..."
"This situation is absolutely not allowed to happen to me. If we want to do it, we will do fine products, become all norms and all authority!"
These words made everyone breathe slightly faster and their eyes burned.
Then Wang Kang continued: "The ruler does not only measure length, but represents rules and norms!"
"How many people outside are waiting to see my jokes, saying that I, Wang Kang, builds roads and cities..."
"It's a delusion!"
"It's a fantasy!"
"But I don't believe in this evil! I want everyone to take a look!"
Wang Kang said as he raised the new ruler, "Xinfeng County is changing and building new, and this ruler is a metaphor for destroying the old and establishing the new!"
"Are you willing to follow me...work together?"
His eyes slid across the surrounding crowd.
First there was silence, then there was a shouting response!
"I do!"
"I do, too!"
"Kangzi, this ruler is called Kangzi!"
"Kang's new rules, destroying the old and creating the new..."
More and more people gathered in the county government office, and even many urban residents ran in when they heard the shouts.
Everyone was extremely excited, and there was no doubt that Wang Kang's words were said in everyone's heart.
Zhang Xianxian looked at this scene in surprise, and looked at Wang Kang with a solemn face. This guy seemed to be a natural leader.
There seems to be a special temperament in him, and every word and action can infect others.
He could tell a flower of an ordinary ruler, and what surprised her even more was Wang Kang's mentality.
Unify weights and measures!
Standard, standard, rigorous!
Kang's new rules, destroying the old and creating the new!
This... was so shocking that she couldn't speak for a while.
"Let's go!"
When she came back to her senses, the people around her had dispersed, but they could see that there was obviously a sense of strength and spirit in these people.
"Kang Chi, this ruler will be called Kang Chi in the future!"
"Yes, I'll go back and build it, make a big one, put it on our construction site, so that everyone knows that this is our standard after the passage."
The craftsmen were all talking and going to work hard.
"Let's go, why are you stunned?" Wang Kang asked Zhang Xianxian in confusion: "Aren't you going to follow me?"
"oh oh,"
Zhang Xianxian came back to her senses and said, "Yes, but, where else are you going?"
"Go to the construction site, are you sure you want to follow me? I remind you that it is very dirty and very dusty..."
"Go, of course, you are not afraid, and I am not afraid!" Zhang Xianxian said directly.
Now she is more interested in Wang Kang, and the more she comes into contact with him, the more complicated she feels.
She wants to truly understand it to deal with...
Then, Wang Kang took Zhang Xianxian and prepared to go out of the county government. Zhang Xianxian asked in confusion: "Aren't we going on a carriage?"
“No seat,”
Wang Kang smiled and said, "Since you need to inspect it, of course you have to see it step by step. What's the point of seeing it outright?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianxian suddenly stopped.
She travels on a long distance carriage and carries in a short distance, and has never walked by...
Seeing Zhang Xianxian hesitating, Wang Kang smiled and said, "Why don't you go back or arrange a sedan chair for you?"
"No," Zhang Xianxian gritted her teeth.
No matter what, she would have to follow Wang Kang to see what he was doing today.
"Then it's up to you..." Wang Kang spread his hands.
Then she took her to inspect. The construction of Xinfeng County has been carried out, first of all, to improve the houses and lay infrastructure...
The original Xinfeng County town was very dilapidated, with dilapidated streets. Some houses were made of stone, some were made of broken bricks, and some were directly made of earthen embryos.
As for Wang Kang, he was planning to directly push down everything and rebuild it, and directly build the second floor of the previous life.
Arrange neatly to replace the original ruined residence.
Of course, renovation cannot be achieved overnight, because the process of demolition to newly built must have a place to live.
So a temporary residence was built outside the city.
Wang Kang re-divided the entire Xinfeng County into five districts: east, west, south, north, and middle.
The first one to be renovated is the East District.
I walked along the way and were all working people. Although they looked messy, they were orderly...
When he went to Tai'an City, he had already arranged Nie Zhonghang. The demolition work had been completed and the foundation had now begun to be dug...
"Young Master Kang..."
"Young Master Kang is here..."
Walking by, people greeted Wang Kang when they saw him.
"Lao Lin, be careful when working!"
"Don't worry, it's mainly about the quality. If the foundation is well laid, the house is stable..."
Wang Kang also responded with a smile.
But Zhang Xianxian, who had been following Wang Kang, found a problem...
