v2 Chapter 771: The first artisan city
Superintendent of Jinzhou Artillery Camp? This official position is not low, and it is fat. It is also an important official in a state. Remember that when the emperor originally let himself choose one of the two positions of Ganzhou Craftsman Camp Superintendent and Qi Yun Supervisor, In front of this, he led a bunch of craftsmen to greet himself and Luo Yutian's Jinzhou Artillery Camp to make Ou Tiexin, but Yan Liqiang couldn't help but look a few more times.
The governor of the Jinzhou Artillery Camp is short and fat, with wrinkles, a mess of gray hair, and a layer of soot on his face. The most amazing thing is that this man is not wearing any official uniform at all. I did n’t even wear clothes. I just hung a leather apron on my neck when the blacksmith wore iron. The leather skirt was dark and oily, and I could n’t see the color anymore. The one used is similar.
Throwing such a person among a bunch of blacksmiths, who dares to say that he was supervised by the Jinzhou Artillery Camp? In this outfit, he even ran to the street and thought he was asking for food.
After introducing himself, the supervisor of Jinzhou Artillery Camp made Ou Tiexin stared at Yan Liqiang, his eyes were bright, his expression focused and curious.
The words “Heavy Craftsman” in the Han Empire are a shock to any craftsman in the Han Empire. The four words “Heavy Craftsman” represent the supreme authority and status in this circle and are the pinnacle of craftsmen.
Seeing Yan Liqiang pay more attention to that Ou Tiexin, Luo Yutian smiled and explained, "Li Qiang is not surprised. This iron heart is usually this dress. I came here, and it ’s the same when I came here. Not deliberately snub! "
Yan Liqiang laughed, "I understand that people who are too focused on their favorite fields generally don't care too much about wearing these details, and they don't care about the views of others. When I look at adults today, I know that adults are making iron and iron. There must be unique accomplishments in this respect. The so-called professionalism and diligence are just like European adults! "
Hearing Yan Liqiang's words, the eye of Ou Tiexin moved.
"Hahaha, Li Qiang, you guessed it right, Iron Core's accomplishments in iron smelting and iron making, really, these days, there are still some interesting things in this artisan city, I will take you to see!"
"Hahaha, I can't ask!"
"Iron core, lead the way!"
"Two adults, please come with me!" The Ou Tiexin finally glanced back from Yan Liqiang, then turned around and took Yan Liqiang, Luo Yutian and the two of them to the craftsman's town.
In the Han Dynasty, the most important reason why Jinzhou Artillery Camp was second to none was its scale!
Like Huanglong County Craftsmanship Camp, which started before Yan Liqiang, there are only a few hundred people in that craftsmanship camp, which is under the jurisdiction of the Pingxi County Governor's Office. Strictly speaking, it is a county-level craftsmanship camp. It ’s not that small. There are many more artisan camps in Huanglong County than the artillery camps in Huanglong County. There are many thousands of empires. Generally, there are thousands of them. Just a few thousand or tens of thousands, but how many people are there in Jinzhou Artillery Camp? For a total of more than 300,000, the entire empire could not find a larger and more numerous artillery camp. The scale of this artillery camp is really the largest in the world.
In the Jinzhou Artillery Camp, as long as it is available in the army, from horseshoe nails to soldiers' shoes and belt armor, from ordinary swords to heavy equipment for siege, eight bull crossbow and the like All the crossbow cars, Jinzhou artillery battalions, can be produced. Almost 90% of the military supplies of the entire Jinzhou army come from Jinzhou artillery battalions.
What other artillery camps either set up a site to make camps themselves, or live next to the city, but this Jinzhou artillery camp, because of its large scale, slowly became itself a city, The artisans of the artisan camp live and work in this city. The entire city is self-contained, and the artisan city is like a military camp on weekdays. It is not open to outsiders. If it is not led by people, it is generally No one can enter this place. This is why Yan Liqiang saw so many towering chimneys outside the city, because the city itself is a super-large factory.
As soon as the party entered the city, Yan Liqiang saw a worker-like person driving two cows and pulling a string of ox carts past him. It was not unusual that the two cows were the ox carts they pulled. They are connected one after another, a bit like the carriages of a train, and in the ox cart, there is some coal.
Taking a few more steps, Yan Liqiang looked at an open leather workshop on the side of the road. A modified steam engine was running click-and-click, driving two iron rollers. The leather was pressed over, and there was an oil-stained artisan in his thirties who was crying, "Try it first, try it first, I don't know how long this machine can be used, this speed is too high, you need to slow down A little, slower, it is best to put a hand guard in the place where the leather is put, lest you accidentally put your hand in, that hand will be useless ... "
In such an era, in the Han empire, suddenly walking into a city with a little industrial atmosphere, this feels really magical to Yan Liqiang, but for Yan Liqiang, the magical feeling is actually UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com actually It's wonderful because, of all people, Yan Liqiang knows the great power that industry and efficient production can bring.
Walking on the streets of Carpenter City, besides the various craftsmen working and the patrolling sergeants who pass by occasionally, almost no one can be seen. The sides of the street are not various Various workshops are all kinds of warehouses or sergeant's camps. Between those workshops and warehouses, various ox carts and carriages come and go, carrying various things.
Just walking in this craftsman's camp for a while, Yan Liqiang saw more than one steam engine. From the style of those steam engines, Yan Liqiang saw at a glance that these steam engines were counterfeit, and their counterfeit targets. It is the steam engine produced by His Majesty's Manufacturing Bureau. The steam engine produced by the Northwest Manufacturing Bureau has some unique structures, so Yan Liqiang can see it at a glance.
"Master Ou, do water-fired machines also be produced in this artisan city?" Yan Liqiang asked.
"Well, the water-fire machine we produced here is also an imitation of the water-fire machine produced by His Majesty's Manufacturing Bureau!" The Ou Tiexin admitted frankly, and was not embarrassed at all, and his eyes were still flashing. Don't want to visit our workshop that produces water-fired machines? "
