Chapter 278 Repaying Gratitude, Bronze Gear!
"Ding, the martial arts shown by your shadow guard captain Yuan Wei shocked the history, shock point +300!"

"Ding, the martial arts shown by your shadow guard captain Yuan Wei shocked Yang Rong, shock point +150!"

"Ding, the martial arts displayed by your Shadow Guard Captain Yuan Wei shocked Tian Wen, shock points +150!"

"Ding, the martial arts shown by your shadow guard captain Yuan Wei shocked Xin Zeng, shock point +150..."

In Xuzhou City, Yuan Tan, who had just stepped out of the Qihou Mansion, hadn't got on his horse, but there were already a series of alarming notifications ringing in his ears.

He, Yuan Wei and others can contact through the system, but they cannot see the actual situation in Yecheng.

But right now, I think it's what Yuan Weiru planned before.

Successfully deterred the Hebei family.

With a chuckle, Yuan Tan turned over and stepped on the black-tailed horse, pulled the rein in his hand, and said in a rare brisk tone:

"drive!"

Let the shadow guards take action, although there is a risk of being too ostentatious.

But after careful consideration, Yuan Tan still felt that this was the best choice.

Although the relationship between the Hebei family and the Yuan family is gradually deteriorating.

But in the final analysis, Hebei Family is also an important cornerstone of the Yuan family.

If the aristocratic families really raise their flags to rebel, even if the rebellion can be put down in the end, Yuan's vitality will be greatly damaged.

Instead of pampering them, engage in fishing law enforcement and wait for them to send assassins to the door.

It's better to make clear the chariots and horses from the beginning, and use the powerful strength of the Shadow Guards to let them know that they have no other choice but to bow their heads.

What's more, since the cheap father is determined to weaken the influence of the family in Hebei.

Then there will definitely be a follower.

The method of slapping a sweet date with a slap in the face is much more skillful than Yuan Tan.

Although he didn't know what Daddy Cheap's plan was, Yuan Tan believed that Yuan Shao, who was a real nobleman, would be able to handle these matters quite appropriately.

The most important thing for him right now is to manage Xuzhou and turn Xuzhou into a war machine that annexes the Central Plains and even the world.

And the hydraulic workshop that he will go to next is the first step of his long journey of thousands of miles!
The hydraulic forging hammer is just an introduction. Technological innovation has always been point-to-point. It is natural not to rely entirely on the system.

It is also necessary to mobilize the people's power and wisdom of the entire Xuzhou people in the entire era, at least in Xuzhou.

It's just that all of these require a systematic conception.

Yuan Tan sat on the black horse, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he fell into deep thought.

Seeing that Yuan Tan was silent, Gao Lan didn't dare to speak out, for fear of interrupting Yuan Tan's train of thought, he just led the way for Yuan Tan.

Wu Zhima was fast, and in less than half an hour, the two arrived near the river outside the city.

When Yuan Tan, who was thinking hard, raised his eyes, he saw the water hammer trying to turn by the river.

Immediately, the mind that had been thinking hard and had some headaches suddenly relaxed.

The waterwheel is not really a new thing in ancient China. As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, the embryonic form of the waterwheel had already appeared.

Especially in the south of the Yellow River, this water conservancy tool is especially common.

The difference between the hydraulic forging hammer and the waterwheel is mainly concentrated on the water hammer in the second half.

Although it was the first time to come into contact with this kind of thing, all the master craftsmen in the craftsman camp were skilled craftsmen, and most of them were brought over by Yuan Tan from the north.

I am no stranger to the waterwheel, so after getting started, I quickly got the prototype of the hydraulic forging hammer.

The design drawing of the hydraulic forging hammer provided by the system is derived from the design of the hydraulic forging hammer that appeared in the Western Middle Ages.

However, after being improved by master craftsmen from the Central Plains, the waterwheel that appeared in front of Yuan Tan now integrated the characteristics of the East and the West.

Not only is it more beautiful and elegant than the hydraulic forging hammer on the design sketch, what surprised Yuan Tan was that the water hammer turning car even used bronze gears!
The effect is even better than what Yuan Tan expected before!

"Who thought of this gear?"

Looking at the water hammer car driven by the gear, the rotation speed is obviously several minutes faster than the actual projection I saw in the system.

Yuan Tan couldn't hide the joy in his tone, and looked at Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi hastily bowed and clasped his fists, letting out the master craftsmen behind him: "Hui Junhou, this bronze gear is the idea of ​​Master Huang and Master Lin!"

Behind Jiang Qi, two honest and honest master craftsmen heard the voice of the battalion governor.

Both of them were extremely nervous. Although they had the status of master craftsmen, they always talked about everything in the craftsmanship camp. Sometimes they got so angry that even Jiang Qi dared to quarrel with him.

But it was the first time talking to Yuan Tan, and he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of offending Yuan Tan by saying something wrong.

But in all fairness, it doesn't matter whether it's these two master craftsmen or other craftsmen in the craftsman camp.

For Yuan Tan, in addition to being in awe, I was more grateful.

You know, craftsmen are lowly slaves in this era.

Although it is not like the later Ming and Qing Dynasties, it is directly regarded as a low-level existence.

But the status is really not that high.

Not only is it not respected by others, but the tax paid is one level higher than that of ordinary farmers.

For these craftsmen, the best way out is to join the family and become their slaves!
After all, as a craftsman slave, not only do you not have to pay taxes, but you also make weapons and farm tools for the aristocratic families on weekdays.

You can also receive monthly money. Although you bear the name of a servant, your life is much better than being a craftsman!
The two master craftsmen named Huang Laosan and Lin Laoji were slaves who sold themselves to the Yuan family in their early years.

But after following Yuan Tan and joining the craftsman camp.

Not only do they no longer have to pay taxes, but they can also receive salaries every month.

And according to their technical level, Yuan Tan also divided them into apprentices, craftsmen, skilled craftsmen, and master craftsmen.

The two of them can receive one tael of silver every month just from the monthly payment!
Moreover, after becoming the master craftsmen of the craftsman camp, their slave contracts were burned by Yuan Tan.

Not only can they marry freely, but the children and grandchildren of the family can also study and make progress.

In other words, Yuan Tan is not only kind to the craftsmen of the craftsman camp, but also has the virtue of regeneration!
That's why, the tasks that Yuan Tan ordered to give craftsmen a camp can always be completed with both quality and quantity.

Jiang Qi, the battalion supervisor, is a supervising master in name, but in fact he is protecting them.

There is no need to bother to urge and supervise the work efficiency of the craftsmen!

And the bronze gear right now is Yuan Tan's return to the craftsmen who have always valued him!

In the profession of craftsman, the handed down skills are handed down from father to son, from son to grandson, from generation to generation.

The manufacture and application of gear parts have been recorded as early as the pre-Qin period, but they were lost with the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

These two master craftsmen inherited this piece of technology by coincidence.

It is because of Yuan Tan's kindness that I donate it.

Just looking at Yuan Tan's expression of excitement and almost losing his composure at this moment.

The two master craftsmen were so anxious that they thought they had altered the drawings sent by Junhou without authorization, which made Junhou feel dissatisfied!
