Hu Changan waved his hand, and Wang Qing was dragged down by a group of guards.
When the other craftsmen saw this, they immediately became silent.
Master Hu is so cruel now.
Don't dare to offend, don't dare to offend.
They are different from Wang Qing. Wang Qing was only hired by Hu Changan, but Hu Changan bought them from Yahang.
If they did the same thing as Wang Qing, it would not be as simple as being dragged out.
Hu Changan looked at everyone's anxious expressions and smiled slightly.
It seems that I have completely established my prestige among these craftsmen.
As the saying goes, give a sweet date with a slap, and then it’s time to give a sweet date.
Hu Changan cleared his throat and said to everyone: "Everyone, although there are many rules in my glass workshop, as long as you are willing to learn and endure hardship, the benefits will be indispensable to you."
"The basic monthly payment here is two taels of silver."
"And in the first six months of the new workshop, for every glass product you make, I will reward you half a drop of money!"
Although Hu Changan's reward is generous, it is not without his reasons.
These craftsmen are all newbies and have to learn everything from scratch.
Without the guidance of Wang Qing, a master, they can only learn by reading the tutorials provided by Hu Changan, which is obviously much more difficult than learning from a real person.
At the initial stage, Hu Changan could already predict the difficult situation these craftsmen would face.
Therefore, necessary financial incentives are necessary.
Hu Changan believes that with the encouragement of money, the pain of learning for these craftsmen will be greatly alleviated.
After hearing Hu Changan's words, the craftsmen all turned red with excitement.
One piece of glassware is only half a pound of silver, but two pieces of glassware is only one tael of silver!
Fully half a month’s salary!
This one tael of silver will definitely make their lives a lot smoother!
All the craftsmen are happily thinking about the bright future.
However, Hu Changan poured cold water on them at the right time: "You will definitely have to work harder in the new workshop's initial stage."
"After all, making glass is a brand new technology, and you still have to work hard to learn it."
"Although I will provide you with books and staff to explain it, the learning process is still very hard."
As soon as Hu Changan finished speaking, a worker below raised his hand: "Mr. Hu, don't worry, no matter how hard and tiring this job is, it can't be compared to the time we used to open up wasteland in Yaxing. That's no food and no money."
wear."
"Now that we have food, clothing, and such a generous monthly salary, we can survive no matter how hard or tired we are!"
"That's right," another craftsman on the side agreed after hearing this, "I can't do anything else but endure hardships. Don't worry, boss, I will definitely complete the tasks you assigned me!"
After everyone heard this, they all expressed their determination.
Hu Changan felt warm in his heart when he saw everyone's excitement.
The working people of ancient times were simple.
Just like a weed, as long as it is given enough sunlight and rain, it will thrive.
These workers don't want much, just food and clothing.
As long as you give them a little encouragement, these hard-working people will work tirelessly!
Hu Changan calmed down and said to everyone: "It's good that you are determined! As long as you work hard, I, Hu Changan, will never treat you badly!"
When everyone heard the words, they also responded one after another.
After talking for a while, Hu Changan estimated that the temperature of the glass solution had almost dropped, so he quickly ordered to the people around him: "Go, help me use the long ladle over there to scoop a spoonful of the glass solution and pour it on the iron body."
Be careful on the stage!"
"Yes!" The craftsman on the side listened to the order and quickly picked up the ladle according to Hu Changan's instructions.
This ladle and iron stand were specially made by Hu Changan in the iron workshop of the Ministry of Industry.
Only iron can hold the hot glass solution without melting.
The reason why Hu Changan gave this demonstration opportunity to the worker was simply because he was too weak.
This original person was a serious young man who had never done any heavy work at all.
As a modern otaku, Hu Changan doesn't have any good habits of exercising.
Compared with these workers who work all year round, Hu Changan's little arms and legs are definitely not good enough.
So in order to avoid a tragedy caused by a misstep, Hu Changan decided to just watch on his own.
After a while, the worker followed the instructions and poured the hot glass liquid onto the iron platform.
At this time, the glass liquid is still red, and the temperature is alarming at first glance.
This is also the best time to shape the glass.
Hu Changan quickly brought some flat iron blocks from the side and said to everyone: "Quick, come here, take these iron blocks, and spread the glass liquid evenly on the iron table."
Since iron conducts heat, Hu Changan specially installed a wooden handle on the iron block so that the craftsmen could hold the iron block smoothly.
Moreover, before entering the workshop, Hu Changan specially vaccinated everyone, saying that the temperature inside would be very high, and told them to wear tight clothes to avoid being burned.
Therefore, these craftsmen all wear tight clothes, which can be said to be the ultimate in protection.
After listening to Hu Changan's words, the craftsmen quickly took the iron blocks and began to spread the glass liquid on the iron platform.
Spreading molten glass sounds difficult, but in fact it is not that difficult. It is just like spreading pancakes. You just need to use an iron block to spread the molten glass evenly and that's it.
After a while, Hu Changan saw that the thickness of the glass liquid was almost the same, so he stopped the craftsmen.
Next, just wait for the hot glass liquid to cool down.
Seeing that there was quite a lot of glass liquid in the pool, Hu Changan ordered the craftsmen to start making the same glass again.
Fortunately, Hu Changan built five iron platforms in one go, so he didn't have to worry about running out of space.
So after a while, the liquid glass in the pool bottomed out.
Seeing that the work was almost done, Hu Changan led everyone out of the steaming glass workshop and went outside to rest for a while, waiting for the glass to cool down.
In the yard, Hu Changan specially prepared several small benches and pots of hot tea for all the workers.
While waiting, these craftsmen can drink tea and chat while getting to know each other.
After all, they will all be colleagues working side by side in the future, so they naturally need to get to know each other well.
Hu Changan was also sitting at the top, accepting the service of the maids.
The hard work just now really exhausted Hu Changan, an industrious otaku, and he needed to take a good rest.
