After Liu Guisan's apprenticeship ceremony was completed, Ma Hanshan summoned the three disciples to give lectures... to arrange work.
Don't think that being a master is a good thing. Although it seems to be very honorable, it is really tiring. Because these three disciples are all craftsmen. Except for Chen Bonong, who can read and read, Li Zhuoshui and Liu Guisan both have written names.
Bad people.
Therefore, the first step for Ma Hanshan was to teach these two guys to learn to read, and to learn to read quickly. This was really a headache. The purpose of accepting them as disciples was to let them help make money, but now they have to learn literacy, which is a bit difficult for them to learn on their own.
If you feel that you are in trouble, you are asking for trouble.
"Listen, I have too many things to think about every day. I don't have time to teach you like a private school teacher, and you can't study like that. I teach while working, and you need to study while working."
"The first thing you have to do is to learn to read, but you can't learn a few words in night classes every day like others do. You have to learn to read three or ten times faster than they do. Let's put it this way, within a month, you will
You must finish studying the Thousand-Character Classic and the Three-Character Classic. You don’t need to understand what is said in it, it’s meaningless. You just need to know the characters above.”
At the time when Ma Hanshan came, there were tens of thousands of Chinese characters in total, and there were two to three thousand commonly used and less commonly used ones. Therefore, Ma Hanshan thought that they should first learn a thousand or two thousand Chinese characters quickly so that they could understand what he said.
"Zhai Leader, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult." Qi Nanyue, who was sitting aside, said.
The Thousand-Character Classic and the Three-Character Classic are "textbooks" for a year or two.
"I don't care if it's difficult or easy. If you can't finish it in a month, then get out. There are no idiots in science." Ma Hanshan took out a booklet with "Enlightenment Mathematics" from the cabinet and said, "This is a book I compiled.
Enlightenment mathematics is originally learned by five-year-old children. You should study it on your own first. If you don’t understand, ask Aniu. As far as this mathematics is concerned, he can be your teacher."
"Mr. Qi, you can copy one copy first, and then print a few hundred copies and come back." Education is very important, and Ma Hanshan is a very long-term investment.
"Ah... Mathematics? Is it arithmetic? Don't you need "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?" Qi Nanyue took the booklet and said.
"Learn this first. This is the most basic and easy to understand. People who can read can understand it in a few days." Ma Hanshan handed over another thinner booklet and said, "Today's weights and measures are too confusing, and they are not easy to understand."
Reasonable. This is "Modern Weights and Measures" compiled by me. It contains the newly stipulated weights and measures, as well as the current conversion methods. You can also copy a copy and print hundreds of copies back. The rulers, weighing, and measuring mentioned in it are
Utensils, etc., I have asked people to make standard parts. Once the standard parts come out, we will produce a batch."
Ma Hanshan is really arrogant. He felt that the current weights and measures were not easy to use, so he directly moved over the decimal system of weights and measures from his previous life. He wanted to copy a set of rulers, measuring tools, and weighing instruments from another world. So he produced a batch because,
He believes someone will buy it soon.
The new products launched by Wagonzhai are all best-selling products. If you want to do business with Wagonzhai, you must know this set of weights and measures. If they don’t have a set of weights and measures from Wagonzhai, how can you get it?
"Captain, are you..." Qi Nanyue felt that he was exhausted now. His accountant was now the all-powerful manager, and he was allowed to do everything.
"I know that you have a lot of things to do, and there is nothing you can do about it. They don't understand. So, you have to quickly find a few helpers and bring out a few people. Then won't you be relaxed?" Of course Ma Hanshan knew Qi Nanyue
There are too many things to take care of, but there is no way, he is the only educated person in the village.
"Yes..." Qi Nanyue had no choice but to agree with a grimace.
"Haha, those who are capable should work harder, Director Qi, thank you for your hard work." Ma Hanshan patted Qi Nanyue on the shoulder and said with a smile.
There are too many things going on in the village. Ma Hanshan has arranged several years of things in just a few months. How can he not be busy? However, although everyone is tired, everyone is in high spirits.
The future described by the village leader is so beautiful, can everyone not be energetic? The most important thing is that the lives of these people have indeed undergone earth-shaking changes, so everyone believes in the words of this big boy village master, everyone
They all worked hard.
"Listen up, you three. From now on, you will not only have heavy study tasks, but also very heavy work. Don't think that you don't have to do it just because you are a factory director or a village master's disciple. It's just the opposite.
, you have to do more." Ma Hanshan glanced at the three "old" disciples and said.
"Yes, teacher, teacher, just give us your instructions, and we will do our best," Li Zhuoshui said with his chest raised.
"Well, in addition to the study tasks just arranged, Zhuoshui, you have to brew 10,000 catties of wine for me within a month. Please note, it is wine like Zuixian, not the wine you brewed before. I have given you the utensils and food.
Get ready. Use your true skills to brew the most productive and strongest distiller's grains. Pay attention, you only need to get out the distiller's grains, and I will tell you how to turn it into a drunken fairy." That's why Ma Hanshan is so anxious.
, because there is no money in the village anymore and we have to find money, otherwise so many people working there will go hungry.
"Yes, teacher..." Li Zhuoshui said.
"Teacher, what should I do?" Chen Bonong also wanted to receive some tasks.
"Yes, teacher." Chen Bonong nodded and said.
"Well, you two need to find someone to form a team. You can't be mere commanders. Write a letter and call all the capable people over." Ma Hanshan said with a smile.
Humph, how can you be so easy to be a factory director or dean? I will prepare everything for you, do you need it?
Seeing that his senior brother and two senior brothers were both alive, Liu Guisan became a little anxious and looked at the leader of the village with a pair of old eyes.
"Liu San, you are now the director of the forging and casting factory. It is not a family-style blacksmith shop. You must have a long-term vision and the courage of a leader. Let me tell you, the forging and casting factory will have great success in the future.
A large factory with hundreds or even thousands of people. Therefore, during this period, in addition to learning how to read, you should continue to build what has been arranged for you, which is to teach disciples, find disciples, and find people. We are seriously short of people." Lack of people, lack of people.
Money is already Ma Hanshan's biggest worry.
This master actually changed the name of his old disciple. He was called Liu Guisan, so he just changed his name to Liu San.
Qi Nanyue's expression became increasingly bitter. He still needed to find people and add more people. He was running out of money and food.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and without money, it's hard for him to be a director.
The summer grain is enough to last for a while, but now the villagers are spending money every day, and the money has no way out.
Ma Hanshan called the three disciples to work, then glanced at Qi Nanyue, whose face looked like dried bitter melons, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qi, you don't have to worry. I guess someone will send money tonight or tomorrow."
"What do you mean?" Qi Nanyue was surprised. Does the village leader still know how to divination? Does he have the ability to know the past and the future?
"Haha, you forgot, today is the last day of the agreement with Shen Wuwan. I guess he doesn't want to lose face. He will arrive tonight no matter what." Ma Hanshan said calmly.
"That's right. Why hasn't he arrived yet?" Qi Nanyue nodded.
"Maybe something happened, otherwise he should have arrived more than ten days ago." Ma Hanshan stood up and walked a few steps in the room with his hands behind his back, and finally stood by the window and said, "If the Ruyi Warehouse is so small If the goods cannot be delivered on time, then their strength is questionable. However, no matter what, Mr. Qi, you have to find some more powerful merchants. The new wine is about to be launched, and it cannot be exclusive to Shen Wuwan and his family. .”
"I understand, just now the village leader said that someone sent money, does he mean to ask shopkeeper Shen to get the advance payment?" Qi Nanyue said.
"Haha, how much can the advance payment be? I want him to use the money to invest in shares." Ma Hanshan said with a smile.
"Buy shares?" Qi Nanyue was confused again. Village leader, you have too many ideas and can't keep up.
"Yes, buy shares." Ma Hanshan turned around and said, "How much does this set of steamer with a hundred kilograms of ingredients cost in total?"
"Ten taels, mainly the cost of labor. Copper pipes are difficult to make, and the threads of the interface are all hand-carved." The so-called threads of the interface are threads. There are nails and rivets in this world, but there are no screws. The threads are all from Qinnanyue. First time seeing it.
"Well, when I have time, I have to find a way to make a machine to tap out or insert threads. One screw is an industrial revolution." Ma Hanshan sighed to himself.
Indeed, for this world, a screw and a nut can solve many problems. For this era of zero industry, its significance is undoubtedly like an industrial revolution.
"What did you say, village leader?" Qi Nanyue asked.
"Oh, it's nothing. A hundred-jin steamer costs ten taels of silver, and the ingredients in the pot can steam thirty kilograms of wine at a time. The steamer takes two hours, and five or six pots can be steamed in one day. In other words, one pot can produce one hundred pounds of wine per day. How many kilograms? Mr. Qi, let them build a few more sets of steamers with a hundred kilograms of material, and a few sets of steamers with two hundred kilograms of material. The goal is to produce 50,000 kilograms of wine per month. Calculate how many sets of equipment are needed. The other five Make me one set each of ten kilograms of material and twenty kilograms of material." Ma Hanshan was calculating in his mind how much money he could earn from each set of steamers every day, and told Qi Nanyue to continue making steamers.
"Okay." Qi Nanyue didn't want to ask why the twenty-pound steamer came because Ma Hanshan's mind was spinning too fast. If he asked everything, he wouldn't be able to finish it.
Tuk Tuk!
Just as Ma Hanshan was about to tell Qi Nanyue that he planned to use the winery to raise two million taels, A Niu knocked on the door and came in to report that a secret whistle had sent back news that a convoy of dozens of cars had arrived outside.
"Dozens of cars? Haha, Boss Shen is here. Mr. Qi, you and A Niu go to Xiaoliang Bay to greet Boss Shen. Hurry over and let him see our security capabilities. Quick... ." Ma Hanshan said with a laugh.
Xiaoliangshan is two miles away, the mountain ridge that tripped Liu Mazi's horse hoof. It is an old road from the mountain. For the convenience of transportation, Mahanshan asked people to open a new road around Xiaoliangshan. Mahanshan named this section of the road Xiaoliang Bay. .Although it takes two or three more miles to go to Xiaoliang Bay, it is much more convenient because of the convenience of driving.
