Li Luo’s current working style is a bit like the later generations of "Chairman Jiang". He likes to issue orders directly with "handwriting" and has a tendency to be "arbitrary".

The main purpose of doing this is to set up the subordinates' obedience method. Over time, the warrants will stimulate conditioned reflexes and make "handling the warrants" a thinking inertia of subordinates.

In this way, the "ministerial orders" of each competent department will become vassals of the "mand orders" and their authority will be greatly reduced. The head of any department cannot threaten Li Luo's authority.

After appointing the three-person captain Fang Huan, Song Ju and Guan Er, Li Luo wrote another handwritten handwritten on the Craftsman Department.

"The personal security department is transferred to the company manager and supervisor:

We have collected seven categories of craftsmen in each village, recruited blacksmiths, military weapon craftsmen, carpenters, boat craftsmen, tailors, brick tilers, and stonemasons. We chose the best craftsmen as craftsmen, and paid the salary as craftsmen as the third-class. We have the salary as the chief craftsmen, the salary as the chief craftsmen as the village chief, and the salary as the chief craftsmen as the chief. We have to handle the order quickly."

After Li Luo finished writing, he stamped the seal of the club leader.

After thinking about it, I simply added another sentence: "Everyone recruits staff according to the rules and responsibilities, and must be literate, and women can also be paid. The salary is temporarily the same as the security guards. This is not an urgent task, so everyone will select and hire in detail. This order."

Then he handed it over to the personal guard on duty Wanyan Tong, and asked him to the manager Lin Biju and supervisor Gong Kan.

Maybe it was a bit addicted to writing a warrant (the chairman was sick), and Li Luo was not at ease with the security team's arrangements, so he wrote another warrant to the security team:

"The five hundred Jurchen soldiers I recruited last time and more than 400 Han soldiers this time were actually new recruits from our club. One hundred brave veterans in the village were trained strictly according to our club's "Soldier Training Outline".

In addition, be warned that Shengfan should not be slackened for a day. Within half a month, enter the mountains to conquer the two invaders of Shengfan tribes the previous time, destroy their clans to warn the rest of the family. Reorganize the troops and wait for them, this order."

After stamping, he handed it over to another personal guard on duty, Ashan, and asked him to send it to the temporary security team.

The construction of the Haidong Company Office has not yet begun, and the chief officials at all levels have temporarily worked in a larger private house.

They don’t have to worry about food, supplies, and money, because these social leaders have already spoken and they will solve all of them first, so that they can control their money and food.

The main problem now is that every department is empty and needs to recruit available personnel urgently. In fact, Lin Biju has posted a document to recruit in various villages.

Especially the land reclamation order. On the first day of Lin Biju took office, he issued a land reclamation order to the newly arrived Jurchen immigrants. The Han immigrants have been here for more than a year and have completed land reclamation. The crops have been planted and can be harvested next month, which is considered to have survived the most difficult period.

However, if Jurchen immigrants want to sow late rice next month, they must complete the land reclamation within one month. This is not difficult. This is the Jianan Plain in later generations, with fertile land and very difficult land reclamation.

But after receiving Li Luo's order, Lin Biju realized that in addition to clearing up land and planting late rice, the current urgent task was to recruit craftsmen for the Craftsman Department, and other personnel could be selected slowly.

Lin Biju and supervisor Gong Kan immediately called Chen Su, who was appointed as the director of the craftsman.

Chen Suben was also the head of an immigrant village in Zhejiang. Before the Song Dynasty, he presided over the construction of bridge temples. After all, he was familiar with the project, so he was appointed as the director of the Craftsman.

Lin Biju showed Chen Su a warrant, and Chen Su said: "The lord should be eager to build military weapons and warships, and then to build an office courtyard. The lord will definitely use troops in the near future."

"I never expected that the general was the grandson of the Tang Dynasty. The villain was so disrespectful..." Gu Kai immediately stood up and wanted to salute again.

Li Luo stopped his movements and smiled indifferently: "Although I am indeed descended from Emperor Yizong, over the past few hundred years, there are no other princes in the Tang Dynasty. At most, they are descendants of Li Tang. Master Gu does not need to care so much."

Gu Kai said respectfully: "Although the general is reasonable, he is the blood of the Emperor of Tang after all, and he is different from others. Not to mention the fortune of heaven and the fortune of the heavens in the dark, but the good deeds of the good deeds of the good, just talking about the talent of the heroic and the mind, how can ordinary people compare to this? "

Li Luo couldn't help but laugh secretly. Gu Kai was a little interesting.

He pretended to be the Li family in Goryeo and was also pretending to be the descendants of the Li Tang Dynasty, of course, they were all purposeful.

"Okay, Master Gu, we won't talk about this. However, your ancestors of the Gu family made armor for my ancestors, and you made armor for me today, isn't it God's will?"

Gu Kai suddenly burst into tears and said excitedly: "The Gu family has been making armor for more than 400 years. I didn't expect to be a villain, but I had to escape from the Central Plains. I thought that from now on, there would be no use of any place to do anything, who would have thought... Who would have thought that the general would come across the sea... The Gu family's ancestors will never be able to end up with me!"

Li Luo sighed: "This is the ancestral art of the Gu family. Master Gu made armor, but he would rather cross the sea east than build armor for the Mongol Yuan. He is really a righteous man from the Han family!"

Gu Kai was very moved and said, "Gu Kai is willing to serve Li again to build armor to continue his ancestral business."

The word "re" means that he has already determined that Li Luo is a descendant of Li Tang.

"Okay!" Li Luo slapped his hand, "I immediately appointed you as the craftsman, the chief craftsman, and the chief craftsman. You can call all craftsmen and iron materials. If you don't have enough staff, you can recruit apprentices by yourself!"

Gu Kai felt joy, but it was not that he was an official fan, but that he could finally have a place to use it.

When he was in the South Workshop of Military Arts, he was subject to restrictions and constraints everywhere. Whatever the supervisor said, he did it, and it was difficult for him to do things according to his own opinions.

Now that he has become this prison, he can naturally show his skills and make the new armor he has long been looking forward to.

"Gu Kai thanked the general for his praise! I dare not do my best to do my best to serve my sincerity!" Gu Kai bowed again.

Li Luo asked again: "Master Gu has been in the South Military Arts Supervisory Workshop for many years, so he should know how many craftsmen there are. You can tell me about it."

Gu Kai said: "There are more than 4,700 officials and craftsmen from the Ministry of Works in Lin'an, north and south. They make armor, swords and guns, stone cannons, cloud ladders, poles, etc., and armor is the most important thing."

Li Luo couldn't help but be amazed. In ancient times, there were nearly 5,000 craftsmen in just one central arsenal, which shows the huge size of the military industry in the Song Dynasty.

"Don't the North and South workshops make crossbows?" Li Luo asked.

Gu Kai said: "The officials of the Song Dynasty built bows and crossbows, which were mainly built by the Bow and Crossbow Academy. There were two thousand craftsmen in the Bow and Crossbow Academy, making infantry and cavalry bows, divine arm bows, various bed crossbows, and various arrows."

Li Luo understood that there was a large-scale "Board and Crossbow Courtyard" specializing in making bows and crossbows.

"Master Gu, there are only a dozen blacksmiths in the Craftsman Department now. Let them cooperate with you. How many sets of iron armor can be produced in a month?" Li Luo asked the question he was most concerned about.

Gu Kai said: "There is also a craftsman in the Craftsman Department, who is my junior and my apprentice. With his assistance, more than a dozen blacksmiths cooperate with the work. If the work starts every day, twenty sets of mountain iron armor can be produced in a month."

Twenty sets per month? Actually, it’s not too slow. A set of iron armor requires thousands of iron pieces, which will definitely take effort.

To increase production, the only way to increase the scale of craftsmen.

"How much does it cost to cook iron? How much does it cost to all the materials?" Li Luo of course needs to understand the cost.

"Reply to the general's words, it takes about 30 kilograms of cooked iron armor to make a set of Shanwen iron armor, which costs more than 2,000 kilograms of charcoal. With the current market price and other consumables, the total cost is... about 32 kilograms!"

Li Luo thought to himself that the material alone would cost more than 30 jin. If labor costs and losses were added, the factory cost of a set of iron armor would be nearly 40 jin.

It's really not cheap! Just say that it's cooked iron, it's not much different from copper. Charcoal is not cheap either, and a 2,000 kilogram of charcoal costs seven or eight jin of charcoal.
