Chapter 509 Do You Want to Do Something More Professional?

"Some parts have been made, but they are not finished yet..."

Speaking of this, Tang Yan placed some metal parts in front of Jiang Tian.

These are some metal pistons made of bronze.

Because of the decompression policy for management positions in the past two days, Tang Yan's working hours have been shortened, so the benefits are not as obvious as usual.

The production method is also in accordance with the general process. First, the mold is made of soil, and then the metal solution is poured in and waited for it to solidify and form.

Of course, if it is just like this, the quality is unsatisfactory.

According to Jiang Tian's idea, don't worry about the quality problem first, just make these things.

After having these tools, they will be used as a basis to make higher precision tools.

However, Tang Yan did not think so, and still worked hard on quality.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Tian also felt very relieved.

Although this kid likes to slack off, the quality of the things he made can be guaranteed.

Looking at the nervous Tang Yan, Jiang Tian smiled, patted his shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, these things are not urgent, it's okay if you slow down."

"Huh..."

Tang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and grinned: "Oh, mom, this is great!"

"But..."

Jiang Tian frowned: "At this efficiency, it's too slow..."

Gudong!

Tang Yan's smile suddenly froze, swallowed his saliva, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

However, Jiang Tian looked at the hammer in Tang Yan's hand and said:

"But... you are also operating with manpower, so I can't ask too much of you."

Huh...

Tang Yan breathed a sigh of relief again.

"Oh my god, boss, you scared me. I thought you were going to do something for me again."

"But!"

Jiang Tian looked at Tang Yan with a serious look in his eyes: "You can't be lazy because of the conditions. You still have to find a way to improve your efficiency!"

"..."

Tang Yan looked at Jiang Tian dumbfounded and couldn't speak for a long time.

Then, his expression changed, and he put on a mask of pain and begged:

"Boss, what do you want me to do? Give me a definite answer, okay? My heart can't stand your fussing like this!"

Looking at Tang Yan's appearance, Jiang Tian found it quite interesting.

Patting the other party's shoulder and comforting:

"Don't worry, I'm not targeting you alone. I mean, the whole blacksmith shop needs reform!"

"Reform?"

Tang Yan was a little confused.

Jiang Tian nodded, loudly.

"Yes! I just found that blindly increasing manpower has limited effect on improving efficiency.

So, I decided to make a punch press for you first!"

Originally, Jiang Tian planned to wait until the steam engine came out before making a punch press.

However, at this efficiency, it is a question of when the steam engine can be made.

In the process of development, the blacksmith shop must be upgraded to a factory first, but the upgrade of the blacksmith shop must be done step by step.

On the other side, Tang Yan was also stunned after hearing Jiang Tian's words.

After thinking for a while, he nodded.

"Well, it's really convenient to have a punch press, at least you don't have to swing the hammer all the time.

But boss, how do you make a punch press? Can you make one?"

"You don't understand this, right?"

Jiang Tian looked at Tang Yan and smiled: "You know the principle of a sewing machine, right?"

"Sewing machine?"

Tang Yan was still in a daze, Jiang Tian waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry about these, and don't work hard on the parts of the steam engine for the time being. So, you take a break first, and I'll notify you after I finish the project."

After that, Jiang Tian walked out of the blacksmith shop.

Only Li Si and others were left, looking at Tang Yan who received the rest order with envy.

And Tang Yan himself looked at the direction where Jiang Tian left, and vaguely felt that something was wrong in his heart...

On the other side.

After Jiang Tian walked out of the door, he walked towards the timber warehouse while thinking secretly in his heart.

He found that he seemed a little impatient at this time.

Although he proposed the idea of ​​making a steam engine, and Lu Ban and his team also made a prototype with wood, it is not so easy to make it in practice.

First of all, to make these industrial parts, we must ensure that these parts are flat and smooth enough.

To be honest, it is indeed difficult to ensure this by swinging a hammer manually.

The best way is to use machinery to complete the continuous rotation work, and then use polishing to ensure the quality of these parts.

Before, Shi Zhigang used manpower to operate the "steam engine", which was also a reminder to himself, but Jiang Tian just remembered this.

The general process is that the mechanism completes the crank rocker drive, so that the parts placed on it are in a rotating state for polishing.

In this way, the lathe can be operated by manpower to ensure the industrial quality of the parts.

As for the mechanism, it naturally has to be left to Lu Ban and his team to deal with.

While thinking about this, Jiang Tian has come to the wood warehouse.

At this time, the wood warehouse has also undergone a series of expansions, and a stone brick house has been placed next to it.

There are many islands that have been harvested these days, and there are houses on them, so a small house is provided for managers at many positions, and Lu Ban and others are no exception.

In addition to storing some tools, this room is also used by Lu Ban and others to work, and it has become their exclusive office.

When Jiang Tian pushed the door open, he could see Lu Ban and Shi Zhigang busy inside.

As usual, thick sawdust and wood blocks were scattered on the ground, and the two were holding wooden boards to carve comic printing plates.

Seeing the visitor, the two also greeted Jiang Tian at the same time.

Jiang Tian responded, then smiled faintly and said:

"How have you been resting recently? Do you want to do something more professional?"
