Chapter 213 Poaching

Science should be practical, and Chen Wanrong does not intend to tell lies. To be honest, "Master, it may disappoint you. Although there are many good craftsmen in our military weapon supervisor, it is unlikely to reach the level the master said."

Sure enough, Monk Yixing looked disappointed. If he could pull the distant stars and moon closer and let him see clearly, how important this would be to astronomy!

However, if the technical level is not up to date, I can only think about it. Although Monk and his side felt sorry for it, they were also a sensible person. They nodded and said, "Master Chen, I can understand this. But can they make a better telescope than this?"

Galileo observed astronomy with his homemade telescope and found that the moon was undulating and ravines were crisscrossing. Chen Wanrong couldn't make the astronomical telescope. He still had confidence to try it at Galileo's level and nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, we will definitely do our best!"

"Thank you Master Chen." The monk and his party also heard the confidence in Chen Wanrong's words. They were very happy and hurriedly thanked them.

"With monks and his genre's astronomy talent, with the help of telescopes, can his achievements surpass Galileo?" Chen Wanrong was very excited and thought that this matter is worth a try.

Liang Lingzan's interest in machinery has increased greatly now. The matter here came to an end and immediately said, "Master Chen, can you show us the machine tools that cut iron like mud?"

Chen Wanrong said happily: "Master, Master Liang, please move!"

The arrival of monks and Liang Lingzan was a major event in the military weapon supervision. Ye Tianheng and others were so pleased that they hurriedly followed him. Everyone was in a good mood, and they talked and laughed on the way, and soon rushed to the machine tool workshop.

Looking at the machine tool in the workshop, Monk Yixing and Liang Lingzan strode over without saying a word, circling around the machine tool, and watching very carefully. After a while, Monk Yixing said, "I heard that there is a machine that cuts iron like mud in the military weapon surveillance, which has been passed down for more than a hundred years. However, the machine has too few knives and cannot be widely used. You only use it when it is particularly important."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kou Yibing and the others laughed. Ye Tianheng stroked his beard and nodded on the ground: "Master, that's what happened before. Our military weapon supervisor is now a salted fish turning over, which is very different. Look, this is the machine tool we made. The one we used long ago. But it was not thrown away, and we still kept it well."

If the nameless senior had not made such a simple device, Chen Wanrong knew how to make knives and was unlikely to make machine tools. Therefore, the people in the military weapon prison had an indescribable friendship with this machine and would not throw it away anyway. Not only did it not throw it away, it was still preserved as usual.

"How to use this thing?" Liang Lingzan's eyes shone, his hands stroking the machine tool, and began to ask for advice.

Ye Tianheng put down his crutch, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Master Liang, look at it, this is how it is used." He picked up the iron block, fixed it, and then activated the hydraulic power. The machine tool moved, and the iron block moved towards the tool. When he approached the tool, the iron chips fell one after another, and the originally indestructible iron blocks were actually like dough.

Although Monk Yixing and Liang Lingzan had heard of it for a long time, they were still surprised when they saw it and said stiffly: "Why is Tie so indifferent?"

Sima Chengzhen smiled and said, "Master, don't you think this is dough, do you?"

This is a joke, which makes everyone laugh.

"I really treat him as dough!" Liang Lingzan asked, "How to use this machine tool? Can you teach me?"

As a genius mechanic, the most worrying thing about is that there are no good tools. Now, the dream tool is right in front of him, so he can't stand it. He has long stood beside Ye Tianheng: "Master Ye, you have used this thing a lot, don't you mind using it for me?"

It was clearly the bird that occupied the cave, but he said it to him in a gentle and beautiful way. Chen Wanrong was reluctant to be handsome. Ye Tianheng smiled and said, "Master Liang, if you want to learn, just say it, and there are so many twists and turns! Everyone, if Master Liang wants to learn, don't give red meat or apprenticeship, don't teach him."

"I won't teach you!" Kou Yibing and the others started cheering in unison and laughed.

Ye Tianheng said this, but he started to teach: "When the iron block is placed here, you need to use this clamp to fix it. After fixing it, you need to check it to see if it is stable or not. This is driven by hydraulic power, and you only need to pull it in this way and you can move it. In the past, the transmission we used was very slow. After my friend's advice, we improved it. Now the speed is much faster."

The transmission speed of two identical gears is not fast. One big and one small is different. After Chen Wanrong’s last guidance, Ye Tianheng and others improved it. The speed is much faster now. In the past, it took several pieces of iron to be cut.

Under Ye Tianheng's guidance, Liang Lingzan performed according to the law. He saw the iron chips falling down constantly. He couldn't help but be surprised: "There is such a wonderful thing in the world. Liang Lingzan has seen it. Master Chen, is this one my use?"

"Master Liang must use it, but we have the conditions!" Chen Wanrong is not the best person to be with.

"Yes! I want him to give him red meat and kowtow to become a disciple!" Liu Huaide and the others started to cheer.

Today, everyone was in a good mood and laughed and laughed. Even Sima Chengzhen said, "No matter what, you should go to the Taoist temple to burn incense?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he caused a lot of laughter. Ye Tianheng slapped on Sima Chengzhen's shoulder and said, "Master Taoist, you are Taoist, the master is Buddhism. There are monks and Taoist in our military weapon prison, two masters, two masters! Do you think there is something more powerful than our military weapon prison?"

"No!" everyone answered in unison.

Chen Wanrong followed up with a big joke: "Our military weapon supervisor has been blessed by the Buddha and protected by the Emperor Taishang. If we cannot make good things, the Dharma is boundless and the Tao is profound, you two will not say this."

"My friend, why are you telling such a joke?" Ye Tianheng punched Chen Wanrong on the shoulder and bent down with a smile.

Like him, there are many people laughing, and even Sima Chengzhen and Monk couldn't help but cough.

After laughing, the atmosphere suddenly became active. Liang Lingzan smiled and said, "Master Chen, what are your requirements?"

Chen Wanrong said with a solemn face: "Master Liang, my requirements are very simple. If you want to use them, you can use them enough. However, you will need to use them for at least ten years, and it is best for you to use them for the rest of your life."

In other words, Liang Lingzan is to be a good craftsman in the military weapon supervision. Liang Lingzan said readily: "With such a good tool, you can't drive me away! Tell you, whoever drives me away, I will go to the emperor to sue him for his darkness! The armillary sphere is what the emperor wants us to do! Humph!"

A cold snorted, but it attracted a lot of laughter.

Chen Wanrong continued to talk about the main business: "Master, Master Liang, it is of course good for you to do armillary spheres. With your skills, there is definitely no problem. However, there are few people and good food, and there are many people who are easy to work. You should find some helpers. Our Military Equipment Supervisor asked a group of students from the Imperial College not long ago, and there are many people with their hearts and legs. You choose them to help you. First, they have cultivated talents and laid the foundation for the future, and second, the efficiency is also high."

With Liang Lingzan's mechanical attainments, under his leadership, he will definitely build a team of mechanics with superb skills, which is more important than anything else. Machine tools are only a few now, so why not build more? Even if no one comes to use them, they will not be useful even if they are made.

Liang Lingzan's arrival gave Chen Wanrong a new idea, which was to build a team of mechanics with excellent technical skills as soon as possible. With this team, mechanical products will be made like mushrooms after a rain.

"Master Chen, it's clear that you want us to help you cultivate talents. To borrow Master Ye's words, why bother to make those twists and turns?" The monk and his party took over the conversation and said, "However, for your permission to use machine tools, this matter is settled!"

"One word is determined!" Chen Wanrong affirmed.

"One word is determined!" Monk Yixing and Liang Lingzan said in unison.

Even if this matter is decided, I have never made any product since the machine tool was made for so long. Now that Liang Lingzan has arrived, the machine tool can finally show its skills.

Chen Wanrong is very looking forward to the birth of a team of mechanics with excellent skills in the near future under the leadership of Liang Lingzan. In addition, the mechanical era is just around the corner.

The monk took off his coat and started practicing on the machine. At the beginning, the two of them had a little stiff movement and were not proficient enough. Not long after, the two of them had a proficient movement. After a while, practice would make perfect. It can be said that they were as experienced as an old technician with decades of skill.

Such a quick comprehension ability is amazing. Chen Wanrong has to sigh at the intelligence of the two. No wonder Monk and his party can become a monument in the history of Chinese science and technology. Liang Lingzan can become an outstanding mechanical engineer in Chinese history. It is not fortunate that both of them have extraordinary talents!

When the two got familiar with each other, Chen Wanrong ordered the students to be transferred to choose helpers. The monks and their party were too famous, and the students expressed their willingness to follow him.

Monk Yixing was an outstanding astronomer, and at the same time, he was also a skilled craftsman. He knew the profound influence of Chen Wanrong's arrangement and carefully selected more than 30 people, including Zheng Wanru.

Chen Wanrong thought to himself that it was time for the students to come to the Military Equipment Supervision and were familiar with the Military Equipment Supervision. It was time to divide their majors and let them further their studies.

At the command, the students were asked to choose the industries they were interested in, and the students cooperated very well. There are three most popular majors, one is machinery, and the monks have already chosen it. The second is chemical engineering, not only because Chen Wanrong was a chemical engineering graduate, but also because the current chemical engineering manager is Sima Chengzhen, who is famous all over the world. The third is steelmaking and knives under the leadership of Ye Tianheng.

All three majors have a banner and a representative figure. They are all famous figures. Not to mention ministers, even Ruizong is very respectful to these three people, and it is impossible to ask the students not to follow them.

As the students were determined, the masters took them to teach knowledge. Zheng Wanru learned machinery from Zheng Lianglingzan, and Gao Jian followed Sima Chengzhen to do chemistry. Looking at Gao Jian's back, Ye Tianheng looked regretful and kept shaking his head. He admired Gao Jian very much, but Gao Jian was more interested in chemistry and wanted to become Sima Chengzhen as his teacher. Now, he finally got what he wanted and went happily.

As soon as the matter was settled, Chen Wanrong went to debug the cement rotary kiln. According to Ye Tianheng's design, the rotary kiln was not big and it was not difficult to install. It was installed in half a day. Once the hydraulic power was opened, it turned slowly and it was really able to move!

If Ye Tianheng hadn't come up with such an idea, Chen Wanrong would definitely be using a Li Kiln now.

Cement needs to be calcined, and now there is no other heating measure. Only charcoal can be used, and the furnace must be built. Under Chen Wanrong's guidance, the craftsmen began to build the furnace.

He was busy until it was dark and had already taken shape. He could test the cement production in another day or two. Chen Wanrong was very happy and went to see Monk Yixing and Liang Lingzan after finishing work.

The two of them were carrying a group of people to do armillary spheres. They were getting excited. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Master, it's time to finish the work."

The monk wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Master Chen, it's still early. Do it for a while."

"It's dark, why are you doing? Let's finish the work! Let's have fun when you go to my house!" Chen Wanrong was in a good mood.

The monk and his party were equivalent to a mountain in Chen Wanrong's heart, and it was Chen Wanrong's wish to be so close to him. Furthermore, Chen Wanrong also wanted to find an opportunity to tell Liang Lingzan about modern mechanical knowledge. This matter was too important.

Liang Lingzan smiled and said, "Master Chen, are you really going to invite us to drink? I thought I was joking!"

The monk and his side didn't spend long time with Chen Wanrong, but he knew that Chen Wanrong was easy-going and had no airs. He praised him from the bottom of his heart and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I'll thank you. I'll finish the work!"

It was very interesting to hear Liang Lingzan teach mechanical knowledge, and the students were reluctant to leave and had to finish work. Chen Wanrong and the monk, Liang Lingzan, and Zheng Wanru blocked Ye Tianheng and the others as soon as they arrived at the door.

Ye Tianheng stood at the door with a crutch on the ground. Liu Huaide, Kou Yibing, Cao Zhixiong and Zhang Deming stood left and right, and behind them was a team of good workers, no less than twenty people.

"My friend, if you invite the master to drink, you won't invite us? It's really not interesting!" Ye Tianheng shouted.

Liu Huaide and the others cheered in unison: "So stingy!"

What does the arrival of Liang Lingzan, a mechanic master, mean? It means that there will be earth-shaking changes in the military weapon supervision! No one will use the machine tool during this time, but it is just used occasionally.

Now it’s different. With Liang Lingzan’s arrival, Chen Wanrong also gave him a group of students to lead him. Once these people mature, their impact does not require too high intelligence, and a drastic change will occur.

This is a big deal, a very big deal! It is not an exaggeration to say that it is earth-shaking! Ye Tianheng and the others are in a very good mood and want to find Chen Wanrong to gather.

They were in a good mood and actually acted like a robber blocking the road and blocking the door!

Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Master will come to my house tonight. You will go to my house to have a drink with me. I didn't tell you that there is an imperial chef at home!"

"Let's go! Go drink!" Everyone shouted, and those who got on the bus got on the bus, those who rode on the horse, followed Chen Wanrong to Zheng Mansion.

All of these good workers have a great reputation. Not to mention ordinary people, even the prime ministers in the court may not be able to invite them all. Chen Wanrong has a great face, so they actually followed Chen Wanrong to their home. Zheng Wanru was so excited when she thought of this festival. She rode on the horse and was so excited that she almost sang loudly.

The Tang Dynasty treated good crafts very favorably. For example, Ye Tianheng and others joined the old craftsman. The court specially allocated vehicles to vehicles. Others had divine war horses. Along the way, they had high cars and big horses, and their momentum was quite powerful, which attracted the public to discuss.

When they arrived at Zheng's mansion, everyone entered the mansion one after another. There were too many people and the momentum was quite loud. They had already alarmed Zheng Jianqiu and the others. They drove them out of the house and took a look, and their eyes immediately widened.

This is a gathering of top craftsmen. This kind of thing has not happened in the Tang Dynasty. Even the prime minister of the dynasty did not have such a great face. How could Zheng Jianqiu not be surprised to lose his eyes?

After a lot of hard work, Zheng Jianqiu woke up and felt very honored, and was busy calling everyone into the house to rest and have tea.

When everyone sat down, they were already very busy. The most eye-catching ones were monk Yixing and Sima Chengzhen. Sima Chengzhen and Zheng Jianqiu had seen each other for many times, so they didn't think it was strange. However, sitting with a bald monk was a foil. A monk and a Taoist made people think about it, and it was impossible not to be curious.

Chen Wanrong introduced them and said, "Father-in-law, this is a master of the line!"

The monk and his party were very famous. Zheng Jianqiu was so surprised that he almost jumped up and said in a hurry: "Master, Master, Zheng Jianqiu is polite here."

The monk replied and said, "Mr. Zheng is so serious, just call me one."

With a "bang", the tea cup and tea tray in Zheng Qing's hand hit the ground, and the tea splashed everywhere. Chen Wanrong and her had never seen her lose her composure for several months. He couldn't help but be surprised and said hurriedly: "Wife, what's wrong with you?"

Zheng Qing grabbed Chen Wanrong's hand with her left hand, covered her mouth with her right hand, looked surprised and said with some stuttering: "What a line of master? What a line of master?"

"Yes! What's wrong with this?" Chen Wanrong became even more strange.

Zheng Qing kept jumping up: "Do you know? Who do I admire the most among the mathematical techniques in the world? It's Master Yixing! The little girl Zheng Qing has seen Master Yixing!" Xiang Seng and his side were blessed with blessings, and they held the courtesy very respectfully. The admiration on their faces was not inferior to the mentors they liked by students.

Monk Yixing is not only an outstanding astronomer, but also a very accomplished mathematician. Thousands of years later, we still admire his achievements in mathematics. Zheng Qing is proficient in mathematics and has great achievements in mathematics. How could she not be excited when she saw Monk Yixing whom she admires the most?

"It turns out it's Miss Zheng! There is a politeness here." The monk replied with respect: "Miss Zheng was cleverly understanding the Shanggao theorem by the Wei River. His rank was very impressed! His clever idea was unexpected. Although his rank was a little eschewed in mathematics, he was also inferior to him!"

Chen Wanrong knew that Zheng Qing cleverly understood the Shang-High theorem, which is the Pythagorean theorem by the Wei River. The method was really clever. Her name had long been spread among mathematicians in the world, so monks and their entourage knew her.

Zheng Qing was very happy to be able to receive praise from monks with one line and one word, "Master Xie is praised, I dare not take it!"

The monk and his party bowed to Chen Wanrong and said, "Master Chen, my party has a heartless request, please allow it."

"Master, please say something if you have something to do!" Chen Wanrong said with a smile.

The monk and his clerk thanked him and said, "A one is ordered to correct the calendar. The calendar is time-consuming and labor-intensive. It not only requires observing the astronomical phenomena, but also requires a lot of calculations. Although the one is involved in the mathematical technique, it is very laborious to do this. The one one wants to ask Master Chen to allow Miss Zheng to participate in this matter. Miss Zheng Qing is proficient in mathematical techniques and will be of great help to the calendar."
