In the afternoon of that day, Chen Ping received a call from the carpenter's workshop.

It is not difficult to list the detailed time and requirements. After all, this is what they do and they are familiar with the actual situation.

Chen Ping made a brief calculation and was shocked. He subconsciously thought that he had made a mistake?

So he called in the subordinate officials and calculated it several times, and it was confirmed that he was indeed wrong.

It's not that it's too much, it's that it's too little.

"Huh? Another craftsman has come up with a way to improve the efficiency of making plows?" Wang Buxu was a little surprised. The power of secret examples is indeed powerful.

He planned to propose the assembly line model himself if no one proposed it after a month.

Although he didn't know what this new method was, Wang Buxian decided to listen to it.

We must not dampen the enthusiasm of the people below.

"Yes, although there has been no actual manufacturing test yet, based on the calculations listed, it only takes less than two days for each craftsman to build a new plow on average, which is more than double the efficiency now.

"Chen Ping said excitedly.

"Tell me about it!" Wang Buxu thought thoughtfully, vaguely guessing that it should be a pattern related to the assembly line.

It is impossible to build a plow in one day using the traditional model.

In the traditional craftsman model, one person does the entire thing from beginning to end.

Starting from getting the wood, cutting, planing, shaping, etc., you are given enough wood, and you can build a plow by yourself.

Carpentry is a technical job, and it is rarely passed on to outsiders. The apprentices are basically your own children.

Some of those who finally got their craftsmanship did not even pass it on to their nephews, and their daughters would be scolded or beaten up if they even took a look at it.

"A plow has thirteen parts. The thirteen parts are given to thirteen craftsmen to complete. After all the parts are completed, they are put together and installed. The most time-consuming part takes a day, and the fastest one takes less than a moment.

I made a rough calculation and gave the short-term parts to two craftsmen to complete. Almost four sets of the required parts can be made in one day. I asked four craftsmen to make the parts that took the longest.

A famous craftsman is responsible for assembling. In this way, seven people can build four new plows in one day, and one hundred and twenty new plows can be built in one month. If the current method is used, these seven people can only build seven new plows in one month without stopping.

Ten seats." Chen Ping said excitedly.

Wang Buxu was slightly surprised, isn't this just the assembly line model?

However, in fact, the efficiency of the pipeline model is far more than this. What is its greatest significance?

The reason is that the requirements for workers have been greatly reduced, and the technical content that needs to be mastered has also been greatly reduced.

As long as you strictly follow the standards, there will basically be no problems with what you make.

This time Wang Buxu didn't bother with anything anymore, he really couldn't wait any longer.

Farm tools such as plows still have a great impact on farming efficiency. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. Without convenient farm tools, farmers can only spend more effort when cultivating the land.

With the same time and the same effort, can the results of cultivating ten acres and fifteen acres be the same?

If Wang Buxu wants to completely solve the problems among the people, the chicken soup and other things are secondary.

As long as we find ways to increase food production, the people will naturally stabilize.

As long as you can live and work in peace and contentment, you can only do things when your balls are free.

The most important thing is that with more food, we can feel at ease to develop the population. With more people, we can support larger plans.

"Good!" Wang Buxu nodded directly, and then said: "We can further refine and differentiate them. The carpenter's workshop will produce unified standard sizes. A craftsman will lead ten apprentices to make those simple parts. A craftsman will lead

Several apprentices perform the preliminary processing of materials, and then a craftsman leads one or two apprentices to perform the final processing. Although more people are required, it can further improve the construction efficiency and effectively utilize the existing craftsmen.

, and at the same time, it can also cultivate a new group of craftsmen.”

"No! I will make arrangements now!" Chen Ping nodded quickly and went down.

There are only three months left before the start of spring, and this matter must be arranged as soon as possible.

Every time a new plow is built, an additional twenty acres of land can be plowed. For the royal court, that is thirty-five to forty stones of grain, which is enough to feed an additional soldier for one year during the war.

Not surprisingly, Lao Liutou won the award.

After learning that his suggestions had been adopted and improved by the king himself, Old Liutou held the canonized bamboo slip and shed tears of happiness.

For him, just working hard for a few months will be enough.

After the autumn harvest, he will be able to get more than one hundred shi of food. Although it is not enough for a family of eight to eat, at least he no longer has to worry about going hungry.

Besides, I also have a salary. Calculated, the annual salary is well over two hundred dan. If you just grow any kind of plant in the field, a new boss with an annual income of 250 dan will appear soon.

…

The entire Han Dynasty was silent in the excitement of offering suggestions, ennoblements, and towns, and various places received a lot of useful information in a short period of time.

Whenever something seems useful, each county will combine the information and look at it, and then find ways to improve it.

Who doesn’t want to be knighted? Who doesn’t want to honor our ancestors?

But in a courtyard in Luoyang City, Xiao He and Cao Shen were not as excited as the Han people.

The two of them now looked sad.

The Chu State envoy left, leaving them both here.

There are five maids around each person who serve them wholeheartedly, and even tell them directly that they can warm the bed, interact with multiple people, and do anything.

But the two of them had no thoughts about this at all.

In the past few days, under the protection of the imperial guards, the two began to wander around Luoyang.

"The King of Han really does whatever it takes to achieve his goal..." Xiao He sighed helplessly.

"Yes, shameless to the extreme!" Cao Shen nodded in agreement.

Xiao He picked up the wine glass and drank a glass alone. Cao Shen was not willing to be outdone and took a bite of the meat.

During this time, their lives have been getting better and better, and they have gained a lot of weight.

Although my life is happy and my salary is good, my mood is not very beautiful.

While eating and drinking, the two of them actually started crying facing each other.

Although he scolded Wang Buxu in his mouth, deep down he had to admit that Wang Buxu's method was very clever.

While solving the food problem, it can also enhance the cohesion of the people, enhance the appeal of the Han court, and increase the people's recognition of the Han country and their expectations for the Han country.

And a year later...

Xiao He really couldn't imagine that food production would increase dramatically. This was almost a certainty.

Xiao He saw the modified straight plow. Just such a slight modification could bring about such a big change.

He also saw that the carpenter's workshop was improving the process of making new plows. He heard that following this process could double the output.

Although there is not enough time for it to cover the entire Han State, at least while others are fighting, Han State can steadily improve.
Chapter completed!
