Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 597 Specialization in the art industry

 After eating the pig-killing feast in Shangliang, the wounded soldiers rarely rested for two days.

The old people from each family cut willow branches and reeds by the river and continued to be busy weaving baskets and new kang mats.

 Once the old people have no leisure time, they always find some small jobs to do.

 Secondly, when picking fruits in the orchard, a large number of baskets are needed.

 Every new house in the second village also needs Kang mats for their big Kangs.

 It was rare that Mr. Hou was not busy these two days, so after lunch, when the light rain stopped, Mr. Hou and Jiayin took a walk in the yard of Li's house.

 Previously, Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying had made dry noodles once.

 The specific steps and the amount of materials used were clearly written down.

At this moment, the veterans gathered together and were listening to Tao Hongying explain the steps, and even taught them step by step.

 But men are careless and clumsy. When more than a hundred people learn it, they are like ducks listening to thunder. They don’t understand it at all.

Tao Hongying said with a dry mouth and a little discouraged when seeing this.

The Marquis frowned and asked the good news in a low voice, "Fu Niu'er, do you think we should give them another business?"

The good news is also disappointing. Taking all aspects into consideration, this dry noodle business is really the simplest and quickest to achieve results!

“Father, let me think about it again and see if there is any better way.”

Mr. Hou rubbed the fat girl's hair and felt that he was embarrassing her.

 After all, adults like them have nothing to do, and Fu Niu'er came up with the idea of ​​dry noodles.

He then said: "It doesn't matter if you can't think of it. If it really doesn't work, my adoptive father will go find your uncle Huang, rob two imperial villages, and let them farm the land."

"It's better not to give up, adoptive father!" Jiayin was soft-hearted and reluctant to part with him.

After all, these wounded soldiers have already planned to settle down. If they change places, their hope of starting a new life will be lost.

“If I think about it again, there will definitely be a good solution!” Jiayin lay on the window sill and peeked into the room secretly.

The little fox joined in the fun and squeezed onto the window sill.

Jiayin simply used it as a pillow to avoid burping on the window sill.

There happened to be a few wounded soldiers at the window. They were also feeling sad, sitting and sighing.

“I’m so stupid, my hands are like bear’s paws, I can’t even knead the noodles well.”

“Me too, I can see with my eyes, but my hands can’t keep up.”

“I’m okay. I think it’s easy to make noodles, but it’s troublesome to make them.”

“You are really wrong. It is easy to make dough but troublesome to knead it.”

Several people started arguing, and they all obviously felt that they were justified.

 But this reminds me of the good news of eavesdropping!

 If there is a specialization in the art industry, then divide the labor!

“Father, I know, I have an idea!”

She ran over, took her adoptive father's hand and squatted down, then pulled a stone and started drawing on the ground.

“Look, foster father, there are these steps to making noodles. If everyone learns them together, they have to learn them from beginning to end, so why not learn them separately!

“For example, if you like to make dough, you can make it and keep making it, and you will become proficient in it quickly. If you are responsible for kneading noodles, you can knead the noodles. If you keep kneading the noodles, of course you will become more proficient!

“In this way, everyone only learns one step, learns quickly, and does it quickly. All the steps are combined together, which makes it easy.”

Mr. Hou's eyes lit up when he heard this. He took the stone, drew a few pictures, and finally laughed. "You can try this method. Maybe it really solves a big problem."

Jiayin raised her chin proudly and said, "Don't worry, foster father. This is called assembly line operation. It's not just a noodle workshop, but all workshops in the future can be arranged like this!" Li Laoer happened to come out of the house and asked after hearing this. Said: "My lucky girl has some new ideas."

Jiayin quickly pulled her second uncle forward, explained it carefully, and finally said: "For example, grandma and her family make shoes, which are four steps: pasting the soles, attaching the soles, hemming, and sewing the uppers. One person can paste ten pairs a day. It is easy to store soles or store ten pairs of soles.

"But four people, working together, can make ten pairs of shoes a day. If they are responsible for each one from beginning to end, each person can only make one pair a day, a total of four pairs. In other words, the assembly line operation can be more than doubled. Efficiency!”

Li Laoer nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and said to Mr. Hou: "Master Hou, aren't you going to pick up a batch of shoes for the Relief Agency to sew tomorrow? You can try this assembly line first!"

The Marquis also thought of this, "I almost forgot about it, let's try it first!"

Jiayin's voice became hoarse when she heard what my mother was saying. She quickly ran into the house, took her hand and said, "Mom, my adoptive father has come up with a good idea. He can easily teach these uncles. Let's finish the get out of class today. In a few days It’s not too late to teach.”

 Before Tao Hongying could respond, the wounded soldiers were already shouting happily.

 “Really, Mr. Hou has come up with a good idea?!”

 “That’s great, my stupid head is really clueless.”

"Me too. I'm really sorry, General's wife. After talking for so long, I'm still confused."

Tao Hongying was afraid that they would lose confidence, so she quickly said: "Maybe I taught too much today, and it's normal for everyone to not learn. When we go back, let's all think about it when we have nothing to do, and it will be easier for us next time."

Everyone thanked him one after another and then dispersed.

Tao Hongying hugged the pottery bowl and drank two bowls of water in one go, which made Li Laosi feel distressed and whispered: "Would you like to go to Dr. Zhang for some medicine? I'm afraid my throat will hurt when I get up tomorrow morning."

Tao Hongying smiled, glared at him, and replied: "No, you're not injured. Just drink more water and you'll be fine!"

"Then I'll boil water for you. I remember there's honey at home. I'll make you a bowl to drink." Li Laosi went to work while talking.

Tao Hongying was afraid that he was not familiar with him, so she followed behind and gave instructions.

Jiayin, the daughter, has been completely reduced to a background.

With his mouth full of dog food, he could only carry the little fox to find his grandma.

 Fortunately, she will always be a treasure to grandma...

 Early on the next morning, Li Laoer went out with Mr. Hou.

At noon, Li Laoer hired a dozen carriages and transported a lot of cloth and cotton to the relief department with great fanfare.

 Those who are curious will naturally ask.

So the news spread that Xintinghou distributed the cotton shoes needed by the army to the relief department for sewing.

Some people say that this method is good. The army can get cotton shoes for winter, and the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the relief department can also have work to support themselves.

 Some people say that Marquis Xinting has a good personal relationship with Uncle Zhongshan, which is a partiality and perversion of the law.

Of course more people don’t care...

Since the notice has been sent out for several days, the children and grandchildren of their family have to go to the booth set up by the Ministry of War at the city gate to sign up and enter the list.

 At that time, when the roster is written, whoever wants to change it will be a deserter and will be beheaded!

 In other words, there is not much time left for each company to operate.

But the emperor refused to let go. Even the empress's brother received the name invitation. The old Marquis of Jiangning Marquis Mansion was so anxious that he fell ill, but the emperor did not change his mind!

 For a moment, everyone fell into despair.

Those who could remain calm before and thought that the Emperor would take back his decree can no longer sit still...
