Chapter 21: Crude Oil

Now that Ma Hanshan has fully adapted to the role of the village leader, he has begun to make more long-term plans. The popularization of literacy is the first step in the long-term plan. In the future, he will also conduct "modern" education for the people in the village to make them

Know what mathematics is, what physics is, what chemistry is...

Although he himself is not good at these subjects, he believes that he can produce textbooks for junior high school level. Even if he can't, let the people in the village have the level of elementary school students in his previous life, and they can also walk sideways in this world.

ah.

With the foundation in place, those smart people will naturally continue to study in depth based on the basics, and academics will naturally continue to develop.

"Contract?" Everyone was confused and didn't know why.

"Master, do you want everyone to study and take the exam for merit?" A Niu said.

"Bah, you're just trying to get fame. Those who want to study for fame, tell them to get lost. Aniu, you are an inspector who can supervise everything. It's been so long and you haven't fulfilled your responsibilities yet."

Ma Hanshan looked at A Niu and said gloomily.

"Ah... How dare I supervise them? I'm just the young master's... young master's slave..." A Niu said, scratching his head.

"Bah, there are no servants or servants in the Wagang Village I lead, let alone slaves. Let me tell you, all people are born equal, no one is more noble, no one is noble, no one is lowly, that's bullshit, those are

I don’t know what the so-called people do to fool people.” If Ma Hanshan were to tell the literati in the city, they would definitely regard him as a treasonous and evil thief.

This is so deviant. Why are people no longer noble? Are there still royal families? Are there still nobles? Are there still great Confucians?

"ah……."

Everyone was so shocked that they opened their mouths and couldn't close their mouths. What the village leader said was completely different from what they had received since childhood.

"Okay, goodbye, go to Snake Valley to pick up black oil and go back to the village." Ma Hanshan knew that he couldn't say any more. Besides, if these guys went back to the village to talk about it, they would be in trouble if this word spread outside.

Everyone packed up their things and headed to Snake Valley...

That night, the world's first batch of crude oil was harvested by the people in Wagonzhai, but the storage of these dangerous goods there gave Ma Hanshan a headache.

Finally, he had someone transform a cave on the north slope into a temporary "oil depot".

We don't dare to store these things in the village. What if it catches fire or explodes?



In the autumn water of Mahan Mountain, Qi Nanyue came back. Not only did he bring back the equipment for making wine, but he also brought back more than ten men and women, who turned out to be two blacksmiths, but he was very happy.

Wagonzhai is currently short of people, especially craftsmen.

After setting up a blacksmith, Ma Hanshan asked someone to repair a dilapidated shed and use it as a temporary ironworks workshop.

"Master Liu, Master Luo, the place where you live and the place where you work are temporary. You can make do with it for the time being." Ma Hanshan took Liu Guisan and Luo Tiechui to "visit" Wagang Village, pointing to the bricks and tiles being dried.

The pile of wood on the lawn said, "Look, the materials are being prepared and a house will be built soon. The workshop will be built first, and then the residence."

"Master Mazhai, you're welcome. We're here to work, not to enjoy the blessings. As long as it's out of the sun and out of the rain, and we have one night and two meals, we'll be fine." Chen Guisan said politely.

"Master Liu, you are wrong. Work is work, but life must also be done well. If the quality of life is too poor, how can work be efficient?" Ma Hanshan said the modern words from his previous life again. Liu Guisan and Luo Tiechui only understood

How can they understand blacksmithing?

"Yes...yes..." Although I don't quite understand it, I must nod in agreement with what my boss said.

"Well, are you going to join our Wagang Village, or cooperate with us, and have you negotiated with Mr. Qi?" Ma Hanshan changed the topic. He always felt that he was in a cold place, and he couldn't find anyone who fully understood what he was talking about.

Mahanshan has regulations that allow outsiders to join Wagang Village, and they will be treated the same as other villagers. If you come to cooperate, there are two ways of cooperation. One is equivalent to processing with supplied materials. What kind of work is there in Wagang Village?

The materials are released, the partners work, each job is quoted, and the salary is paid after the work is completed. The house, food, etc. provided by Wagang Village must also be calculated based on the price. In Wagang Village, private establishments are not allowed for the time being.

Eat in the large cafeteria.

The second way of cooperation is to work. People who come to cooperate are assigned work by the people in Wagang Village. If they complete the assigned work as required every day, they can get the prescribed remuneration. Of course, these people live in the houses in Wagang Village

, eating in the village also requires money.

"Master of the village, Mr. Qi said that we can work alone. We also want to do it ourselves, but what I am worried about is, are there so many jobs in the village?" Liu Guisan is a well-known blacksmith in Caizhou. If he hadn't offended some

He couldn't afford to offend someone, so he couldn't come to Wagang Village with Qin Nanyue, so he felt that with his own skills, he wouldn't starve to death no matter what he did, but if he wanted to get ahead, he had to work alone.

"Yes, that's what I mean. There doesn't seem to be much work in Wagonzhai," Luo Tiechui said.

"Haha, you saw that the village was in chaos everywhere, and there wasn't even a decent house, so you were worried that Mr. Qi had lied to you, weren't you?" Ma Hanshan turned around and looked around the village and said, "The village is changing.

It is equivalent to a start-up, everything is being updated, and it can be described as a place with a lot of waste waiting for things to be done. Smart people see unlimited opportunities, while people with weak brains think that there is nothing good about a place that has just started.

Nostalgic."

"Master Luo, I'm going to say something a little offended. I have a lot of work here, but I'm afraid that your craftsmanship is not up to par and you can't do what I asked for." Ma Hanshan waved to A Niu, and A Niu walked closer.

He took out a stack of blueprints from his backpack.

I don’t know when it started. Except for sleeping, Aniu always carries a backpack made by Mahanshan. This is a backpack that was very popular in Mahanshan’s previous life. Although it is made of coarse cloth, the style is unprecedented among people here.

, so it feels very "fashionable".

Well, people in this world have never heard of the word fashion, but they just think this bag looks good.

"Look, can you make these things?" The few drawings that Ma Hanshanzhai gave to Luo Tiechui were of a hand-operated water pump. Ma Hanshan spent many nights drawing them.

"What...what is this..." Luo Tiecheng was really good at blacksmithing, but he really couldn't read the drawings.

"Master Liu, do you understand?" Ma Hanshan said and handed over several other drawings. This one was more complicated and was a drawing of a four-wheeled carriage.

The efficiency of the two-wheeled carriage was so low that Ma Hanshan decided to build a four-wheeled carriage.

In fact, a four-wheeled carriage was built before, but it was eliminated because of the turning problem. Although Ma Hanshan was not a science and engineering student, he had played with so many sports cars, so he still had a way to solve the steering problem of a four-wheeled carriage.

"Is this a four-wheeled vehicle?" Liu Guisan asked doubtfully, "Four-wheeled vehicles have been built before, but they couldn't be driven at all, so they were abandoned."

"That was before." Ma Hanshan smiled and said, "The reason why I show you these drawings is to tell you that in Wagang Village, there is not only work to do, but you can't finish it. In the future, there will not only be iron workshops here,

There are also car-making workshops, wine shops, and many other workshops. In a word, here, I am afraid that you have no skills. The better your skills, the more money you will make."

"Mazhai Master, stop talking. I will stay and I will do whatever work you give me. However, I don't know how to read the drawings. What should I do?" Luo Tiechui paused.

"It's okay, as long as you live well, I will find someone to tell you how to do it." In this world, 99% of people can't read. Looking at the pictures, there is probably no one. Because Ma Hanshan painted three views.

Looking back, he had to draw a schematic three-dimensional diagram, so Luo Tiechui should understand it.

"I'm staying too. Master Mazhai, you can just arrange what to do." It's actually impossible for Liu Guisan to leave. Is there any safer place than here? The person who offended him would never think that he would do it even if he wanted to.

You must be hiding in Wagonzhai.

"Okay, then you can settle down first and help repair the ironworks these days." Ma Hanshan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The first batch of "processors" were finally here.

For Mahanshan, the most ideal form is that all production is in the hands of Wagang Village. But in that case, Wagang Village must have enough professionals and managers. And now, Wagang Village has

There is not a single professional, not even Ma Hanshan himself, only half a bucket of water and two knives.

In the next few days, Ma Hanshan found a plasterer, Liu Heizai and two militiamen, and they hid in a house that had been prepared long ago to install the so-called wine steaming equipment.

In Mahanshan's previous life, small wine steaming equipment was a three-piece set made of stainless steel in the factory. You could buy the equipment, connect two pipes, and tighten a few screws to start work.

But it doesn't work here. Ma Hanshan has to build a big stove, put the iron pot on it, and then install a big bucket on it. It looks a bit like the big pot used to steam bran when pressing peanut oil. However, steaming bran with oil is not the same.

It needs to be sealed, but steaming wine needs to be sealed.

In this world, the simple sealing process gives Ma Hanshan a headache. Because there is no rubber or cement. Therefore, the seemingly simple connections between the cauldron and barrel lid, steam pipe, and pipe and cooling tower are

Very troublesome.

Fortunately, steaming wine is under normal pressure. Otherwise, if you want to do it in this world, you probably won't be able to do it.

On top of the large material barrel, a shelf should be built and a set of pulleys should be installed to make it easier to change materials.

In the cooling tower, many curved tubes should be used for the best effect, but in this world, it is too difficult to make tubes. There is no extruder. Think about it, how difficult it is to make tubes.

Therefore, Mahanshan simply did not use pipes in the cooling tower. Instead, he used a copper ball and led it to a wine pipe.

After three days of tossing, Ma Hanshan finally finished the first distillation device in this time and space. He excitedly wanted to add water to try, but A Niu said that Si Hou was back.u
