Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Chapter 152 Manual Drilling Machine

"Your Majesty, this pressurized well is a magical object, but it is still very difficult to apply it to the whole of Daqin in a short period of time."

In Xianyang Palace, after Ying Zheng came back, he immediately called Gong Shuchou and asked him to build pressurized wells and spread them all over the country.

"Why? Is it difficult to build this manual pressurized well?"

"That's not true. It's not complicated to build this pressurized well, and there are blueprints here, so it can be built within three days!"

"Then why is it difficult to popularize?"

Ying Zheng was a little puzzled.

"Your Majesty does not know that the shallowest well has to be dug ten feet deep. If it is a place that is already arid and lacks water, it may take tens of feet. This is the most difficult job of digging. It not only consumes A lot of manpower, and if the detection is not accurate, no matter how deep you dig, it will be a waste of effort!"

"This……"

Ying Zheng frowned, but he really didn't think of this question.

"Go back and build the finished product first, and I will think of a way later!"

"Your Majesty, the villain has one more thing."

"Say!"

"The public loser is now making every effort to build fine iron, as well as the Gale God Crossbow and various fine iron weapons. If they want to build this pressurized well, it will inevitably be short of manpower."

"Insufficient manpower?"

Yingzheng frowned. The public losers were responsible for manufacturing all the most elite weapons and equipment of Daqin, and they were all confidential. Craftsmen must not be casually recruited to participate.

"You go back first, the widow will think of a way!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand to signal Gong Shuchou to leave, and turned to look at Meng Yi and the others.

"Your Majesty, the servants have already prepared the carriage!"

"Go to Jingyang!"

……

"Che'er, your manual water well is useless. It's too difficult to dig a well. Is there any useful method?"

Ying Zheng directly conveyed the original words of Gong Shuchou to Zhao Che.

"That's it, you said it earlier!"

Zhao Che smiled, and only then did he come to his senses. The water conservancy technology in the pre-Qin period was still very rough, and the detection tools used could not detect the water quality and quantity at all.

Zhao Che turned around and rummaged through the bookshelf for a long time, and took out a thin manual.

"This book is called the method of examining the source of water. It records some relatively simple and effective ways to detect underground water sources. I guarantee that if you follow the method in this book, it will be at least [-]% accurate!"

"Ninety percent? Are you serious?"

Overjoyed, Yingzheng grabbed the source code and looked it up.

"Ninety percent is just a conservative estimate. As long as you can learn this book thoroughly, finding water is just as easy as you can get!"

"Okay, with this book, at least we don't have to worry about wasting time when digging wells. Although the speed of digging is a bit slow, sooner or later, the head of Qin and Guizhou will be able to use pressurized wells for everyone. .”

"Who said digging a well must be slow?"

Zhao Che suddenly said another word, which immediately made Ying Zheng stunned.

"Could it be that you have anything else that can speed up the excavation?"

"Exactly!"

Zhao Che nodded, and led a few people to the backyard.

It was that familiar utility room again, Zhao Che went in and rummaged for a long time, and brought out a huge drill.

"Come on, try this!"

"What is this?"

Ying Zheng took a look and was a little puzzled.

"This thing is called a small manual drilling machine, which can greatly increase the speed of manpower drilling wells. There is also a large pneumatic drilling machine. It only takes one day to dig a ten-foot-deep water well!"

"what?!"

Ying Zheng turned pale with shock, his face full of disbelief.

"What? Don't you believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that it's too incredible. I'll try it when I bring it back!"

Ying Zheng and even Zhao Che are not bragging, he can do it if he says he can do it.

"By the way, Che'er, I actually have one more thing to do here!"

"What else?"

"It's like this. My craftsmen are now doing their best to forge fine iron, as well as various weapons and equipment, including the Godly Wind Crossbow. If we want to mass-produce this drilling machine and pressurized well, I'm afraid there will be a shortage of manpower!"

"Insufficient manpower? This is very possible!"

Zhao Che nodded. The ancient people mainly relied on pure handwork to make things, which was inefficient and required a lot of manpower.

"Father, how many craftsmen do you have under your command?"

"Probably tens of thousands!"

Ying Zheng estimated all the manpower of the public loser, as well as the craftsmen he could use, and gave a number.

"so much?"

Zhao Che was surprised, tens of thousands of craftsmen, this is really not a small number, no wonder Ying Zheng is confident in popularizing it on a large scale no matter what blueprint he produced.

"Tens of thousands of people, this is enough to build several electronics factories!"

An idea flashed in Zhao Che's mind, and he thought of a way to maximize the use of craftsman's labor.

"Dad, do you know what an assembly line operation is?"

"What thread is flowing?"

"Assembly line, for example, if you want to make a Gale God crossbow, you can divide it into various parts, and each person is only responsible for his own part, and then after all the parts are manufactured, you only need to assemble them!"

"What's the use of that?"

Ying Zheng just felt a little novel, but he didn't understand the concept.

"The effect is great. First of all, the original complicated work of the craftsmen has been simplified to only one step, which greatly improves the fault tolerance rate, and the production process is separated. As long as you keep the core technology, you can also go outside to recruit those ordinary people. Craftsmen can work with only a little training, and avoid the problem of technology leakage!"

"Is it still possible?"

Ying Zheng suddenly realized that it was the easiest way to find Zhao Che in case of difficulties.

"The assembly line work is just the most basic working method. In fact, I suggest that you can directly build the factory, use only our people as the core personnel, and then recruit those ordinary Guizhou craftsmen to expand our production scale, so that our Production efficiency has improved, and the heads of Guizhou have jobs, isn’t it the best of both worlds?”

"I understand, this is what you said, the benefits that commercial capital brings to the bottom of Guizhou, right?"

"It's not a welfare, it's just providing them with a job to survive, and everyone benefits from each other!"

Ying Zheng nodded, and secretly remembered what Zhao Che said just now. When the court is cleaned up during this period of time, he is going to vigorously develop commerce, encourage the street stall economy, and let Daqin's wealth circulate, so that more can be created. the value of.
