"Deputy supervisor?" Liu Yifei raised his eyes of loss, wondering if Zhu Youjian was shaming himself. The supervisor's seat was lost and he became like a stray dog without a home. Now he got a bone thrown by Zhu Youzhen. Shouldn't you want this tossed bone? He hesitated.
"Although this king is the head of the firearms bureau, he still has to establish a military academy and train soldiers. He cannot be stationed in the firearms bureau for a long time. Director Liu has been in charge of the firearms bureau for many years, has rich management experience, and has a good understanding of Daming firearms. Can’t take on the daily management of the Firearms Bureau?" Zhu Youjian saw that Liu Yifei was still hesitating, so he had to tell his own plan. Without Liu Yifei, he really doesn’t know where to find someone so familiar with the Firearms Bureau to manage the daily R&D and development of the Firearms Bureau. produce.
Daily management? Is Zhu Youjian just a named supervisor? My own title has only changed, but the actual work content has basically not changed
Liu Yifei understood that Zhu Youjian was the King of Letters, and only occasionally came to the Firearms Bureau to instruct work, probably because he was concerned about the production of some special firearms. If he agrees to be the deputy director of the Firearms Bureau, it will be no different from his previous job.
Even if he was still in charge of the Firearms Bureau, and as Zhu Youjianxin King, came to the Firearms Bureau to give advice, he still had nothing but to completely obey.
Liu Yifei's mood suddenly became clear, and the slackness towards Zhu Youjian just now gradually transformed into his respect for Zhu Youjian. The key is that he could witness the take-off of Daming firearms. Thinking of this, he took a step forward and knelt down in front of Zhu Youjian: "The humble position is willing to follow His Royal Highness's arrangements."
"Well, then you can find the craftsmen who master the technology in each production unit. I will find them to have a meeting to reorganize the firearms bureau." Zhu Youjian finally started the reorganization of the firearms bureau. Only the firearms bureau can be reorganized, and Daming's firearms can only be reorganized. Only by obtaining rapid development can we not let down the wind in the future war against slavery.
"Yes, Your Highness. Let's make arrangements for the humble position." Liu Yifei, who was relaxed, saluted Zhu Youjian again, and walked out of the main hall quickly.
After a while, more than one hundred craftsmen from the Firearms Bureau appeared in front of Zhu Youjian. They are the core personnel of each production unit.
"See His Royal Highness." All the craftsmen paid a salute to Zhu Youjian.
"Get up! I am not the King of Letters now, but the head of the Firearms Bureau. You don't need to bow your bows, and you won't have to do it in the future. Guys, sit down and talk." Zhu Youzhen really doesn't like these etiquettes, although it is not blamed for many people. But with more etiquette, it will divide the distance between people.
In front of Zhu Youjian, how dare the artisans sit down? They looked at me and I looked at you. As a result, no one dared to sit down and crowded into a crowd.
It seems that they are still too restrictive. In such an atmosphere, how can the reorganization plan proceed smoothly? Zhu Youjian had to wink at Liu Yifei and asked him to persuade the craftsmen to enter the memory role as soon as possible.
Liu Yifei grasped the leadership's intention at a glance: "Don't be nervous, sit down! Your Royal Highness has something important to announce to everyone."
"Actually, it's not an announcement, but a discussion with everyone." Zhu Youjian tried to calm down as much as possible to let the craftsmen settle down. Liu Yifei persuaded again and again, and the craftsmen finally sat down tremblingly.
Zhu Youjian felt that the craftsman sitting in the front row was very familiar, so he asked, "You are..."
"Go back to your Highness, my name is Li Luo." Li Luo answered while kneeling again.
Zhu Youzhen hurriedly stopped: "No, no, you sit down. I remember, you made mines and grenade? How are you doing now?"
"His Royal Highness, the test has been completed and it is ready for production." Li Luo's eyes flashed with excitement. When it comes to landmines and grenades, he no longer looks cramped, but is particularly excited. Within a few months, he was struggling with his companions. After a hundred taels of silver, that was an income he hadn't seen for several years. Moreover, if landmines and grenades can be produced on a large scale, he will get a lot of income.
"Okay, I will send someone to check and accept. If it is really qualified, my reward will not only be a lot, but also a large number of orders, you must be prepared." Zhu Youjian is also excited, and finally has a firearm for energy production.
"Yes, Your Highness." Li Luo was afraid of causing others to be jealous, but didn't dare to forget when he was proud.
Zhu Youjian nodded, Ding Lan suddenly appeared in his eyes, "Ding Lan, how are balloons and rockets made?" I remember that Ding Lan made both balloons and rockets last time, but it didn't meet the requirements.
"Back to your Highness, the balloon can already carry people into the sky, but it can only carry one person; the accuracy of the rocket has been improved, but the range is still not enough, only six hundred steps." Ding Lan seems to be more energetic than last time, although the clothes are good. It is made of ordinary coarse cloth, but it is very clean and tidy, and it will never be associated with beggars anymore. The hair is also neatly combed, but the skin on the face is still a bit dark.
"The rocket can shoot six hundred steps, which is pretty good. At least it has exceeded the range of the crossbow. The balloon can only carry one person, which is far from enough. At least three people must be carried." Zhu Youjian checked the rocket and the balloon on the battlefield. The exact use of it is not very clear, but to be used on the battlefield, the rocket's range must be at least longer than Jiannu's bow and arrow. The balloon must have a load of at least three people. One person controls the rope and controls the direction. One person drops bombs and loads ammunition. A balloon that cannot hold three people can only be used for sightseeing.
"Yes, Your Highness, Cao Min will definitely live up to His Highness's entrustment." In Ding Lan's eyes, Zhu Youjian is his God. Zhu Youjian not only allowed him to live a normal life, but also pointed him to the direction of rocket research. Had it not been for Zhu Youjian, he would still be a lunatic in the eyes of others.
Zhu Youjian finally found Bi Maokang in the crowd. For unknown reasons, he always avoided his gaze: "Bi Maokang, how is your gun? Is there any progress?"
"His Majesty, the problem of ignition has been solved, but the barrel is not good, so I can only shoot more than ten times." Bi Maokang felt that his development was behind others, so he didn't dare to see Zhu Youjian, so he hid in the crowd.
The barrel problem is not a technical problem, but a material, to be precise, a steel smelting technology problem. It seems that Daming’s steelmaking technology must be improved. "Don't worry, the ignition problem is the most important link. If the ignition problem is solved, other problems will be much easier." Zhu Youjian comforted Bi Maokang. In the original history of Ming Dynasty, Bi Maokang was the founder of Flintlock. It shouldn't be a matter of materials. Now that I have my own guidance, there is no reason why I can't make a flintlock, it's just a matter of time.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Cao Min must do his best to make a flintlock as soon as possible." Bi Maokang no longer dodge Zhu Youjian's gaze. Zhu Youjian did not blame, so he regained his confidence.
The craftsmen gradually relaxed. Zhu Youjian felt that the fire was similar, and then discussed with the craftsmen about the firearms bureau: "I plan to reorganize the firearms bureau. Specifically, there are three things, two of which are the same as everyone here. It's related." Zhu Youzhen really doesn't know how to call these craftsmen. If you call them craftsmen directly, it seems that you don't respect them. If you don't call craftsmen, how should you call them? Technical staff? IT personnel? The labor elite? It seems that there is no such name at all.
"First, the technical experts in each production unit will no longer be engaged in production, but will specialize in the research and development of firearms. To this end, I intend to establish a research and development institute. Most of you will become a member of the research and development institute. What's your opinion?"
"R&D Institute?" Although the craftsmen did not understand the three words R&D Institute, Zhu Youjian had made it clear enough, and they still understood the specific meaning. But they didn't know what consequences this new thing would bring to themselves, so they didn't make a statement.
Zhu Youzhen is not in a hurry, they already have a target for comparison. "Have you all heard about Li Luo and the others? The income from the R&D Institute will be much larger than that of the production unit, as long as you have results."
"All have Li Luo's income?" The craftsmen gradually became active. They had heard about Li Luo and Ding Lan, especially Ding Lan. Now they have changed individuals. Not only do they have the money to study rockets, but they also have subordinates. With ten craftsmen as assistants, can such a good thing fall to yourself
Zhu Youjian waited for the artisans to slow down and further used economic levers to stimulate them: "All of you, as long as you have the ability and desire for research and development, can enter the R&D Institute and leave the production unit from now on. Are you willing?"
"Yes." "Yes." More and more people raised their hands to signal. Some people thought Zhu Youzhen was registering, and I was afraid that Zhu Youzhen could not see him, so he even raised his hands and stood up.
"Everyone, be quiet." Zhu Youjian is very satisfied with the performance of the craftsmen, what he wants is this effect. "You think carefully, register in front of Deputy Director Liu after the meeting, and those who have not come today, as long as they meet the conditions, can go to the R&D Institute. But I also want to talk about the second aspect of the reorganization of the Firearms Bureau. That is your original It is the supervisor of each production unit. Now that you have left the production unit, you must teach the skills you have mastered to other production personnel. Do you agree?"
The craftsmen are cold again and teach their skills to others, so how can they earn income? If you keep the current technology, even if you are a little poorer, you still have a living. What if I teach the technology and fail to achieve results in the R&D Institute, or the R&D Institute is disbanded, then how will I live in the future
This is exactly why Zhu Youjian wants to reorganize the Firearms Bureau. If he is only satisfied with the current technology and spends a lifetime, or even a few lifetimes, how can Daming's technology be developed? "Teach others technology and you can enter the R&D Institute. From then on, you will be specialized in R&D and your income will be greatly increased. If you don’t teach others technology, you can only stay in the production unit as before. The door of the R&D Institute is not only open to you. Craftsmen who mastered the technology from all over the Ming Dynasty have the opportunity to enter the R&D Institute. You choose where to go." Zhu Youjian does not intend to use strength. He believes that these craftsmen will make the right choice in the face of interests.
The scene was particularly quiet, and the Han people had a herd mentality, as if no one wanted to take the lead in making a decision.
"His Royal Highness, I am willing to join the R&D Institute." It is Ding Lan. He now has a blind worship of Zhu Youjian. Everything he has is given by Zhu Youjian. Even if he really loses it again, it will only return. The previous situation.
"His Royal Highness, we also join the R&D Institute." It was Li Luo's group of people who were the earliest beneficiaries of the R&D system. They have already received a hundred taels of silver, and there are further benefits.
Subsequently, Bi Maokang also announced to join the R&D Institute. Gradually, more people joined, almost reaching a small percentage.
Zhu Youjian sees that it is almost done, new things must be given time for others to accept. "Everyone, it doesn’t matter if you didn’t participate. I won’t force you to go back and think about it before making a decision. Now I will talk about the composition of the R&D Institute. Bi Maokang is the first dean of the R&D Institute. "Zhu Youjian valued Bi Maokang, hoping to give him better conditions so that he could develop a flintlock gun as soon as possible.
"Me?" Bi Maokang did not expect that he was not the first person to express his position, but became the first dean of the R&D Institute. How did he know Zhu Youjian's thoughts.
"Why? Not willing?" Zhu Youjian smiled and looked over.
"Xie Caomin, thanks for your grace." Bi Maokang reacted. He knelt to the ground silently, "Boom, boom, boom" with three beeps.
Zhu Youjian asked Bi Maokang to get up and continue his vision: "There are various departments under the R&D Institute. Bi Maokang will also serve as the head of the firearms department because he is engaged in the research and development of firearms; Ding Lan will be the head of the rocket department, and the rocket department will also have negative balloons. Li Luo will serve as the chief of the artillery and shells department. After the mine grenade is accepted, he will be engaged in the research and development of the bomb."
"Yes, Your Highness." Ding Lan and Li Luo promised, secretly sighing in their hearts, but fortunately they announced that they had joined the R&D Institute early.
Zhu Youjian also wants to set up an artillery department to specialize in artillery of various calibers; the explosives department specializes in more powerful explosives, etc., but he doesn't know much about the expertise of the craftsmen, so he has not announced candidates for the time being.
"Regarding the reorganization of the Firearms Bureau, there is a third aspect." This is also an important reason for Zhu Youjian to reform the Firearms Bureau. "In the future, all production units will implement assembly line production. Craftsmen do not need to learn a full set of techniques, as long as they learn one of them. That’s all.” Of course the craftsmen didn’t understand assembly line production, even Liu Yifei had never heard of it. Zhu Youjian had another teacher addiction.
Zhu Youjian is now the head of the Firearms Bureau and the prince of Daming. No one will oppose it stupidly when it comes to matters that are not related to his vital interests.
After the meeting, the craftsmen gradually dispersed, but Liu Yifei stayed alone: "His Royal Highness, if the reward standards of His Highness are followed, the Firearms Bureau will not be able to pay the craftsmen."
It's money again. Zhu Youjian thought for a while, "Will the rewards of the craftsmen be too much for a while, you first draw up the standard of rewards, and if the money is not enough, I will figure out a solution." Niang Xipi, none of the three factories has any income yet, and he But he has to spend money everywhere. Does Li Chunye allow himself to hold so many positions to make Laozi so poor that he has no pants to wear
