The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

Chapter 18 Yangjiabao's strong team is dead!
"Uncle Qin, I haven't done brick kiln work before, I'm afraid I can't build a kiln alone with people!" I thought that in the craftsman's camp, I would just do some carpentry work.In the end, I took Ding Huanyi and my third uncle to do the wind box for a few days.Carpenter Qin came to him and gave him another job, asking Song Yingkui, as the general manager of the project, to lead people to build a new brick kiln.

After all, carpentry is more familiar with machinery, so there is no pressure or worry about inaccuracy in doing it.It's different to preside over the construction of a brick kiln. This thing is pure civil engineering work, and it is easy to go wrong.Song Yingkui hurriedly evaded it, people, you have to know where the boundaries of your abilities are, you can show off what you are good at, and learn to be submissive when you are not good at things.

"Is there something you don't dare to do with your doll? You can take someone to do it. I'll spare more time to watch over it for you. I'll come over when it's critical. Tan Yaotou will also keep an eye on it, and won't let you do it alone. The work is so tight now, and one person can be used by several people, so you can only use your doll as a beam. By the way, when the kiln is being built, the team of strong men from your village will be transferred to work as small workers. You need to be more convenient. During the kiln building, the food for the strong men will be handled by the craftsman camp." Qin Mu. The craftsman ignored Song Yingkui's evasion, but gave him the hard work.

The main pit of the royal mausoleum has been dug, and many jobs now require craftsmen. Whether it is laying bricks for the tomb passage or ramming mellow soil for the outer wall of the tomb, these are not jobs that can be done by strong men.A large number of craftsmen will be sent to the site to provide technical guidance and lead the team. Since Song Yingkui has already enjoyed the treatment of a small craftsman, he has to take corresponding responsibilities.

Taking over the task of building a new brick kiln is not without benefits. You can use the convenience of your position to seek some benefits for the strong men in the village and take care of your fellow villagers.

"When laying bricks, you must follow the line I pulled, and you can't mess around. There is no need to hurry, and quality is the priority. Brick kilns are not casual jobs. You see, everyone can enjoy the treatment of a craftsman, so you have to work according to the standards of a craftsman." When he led Zhuang Ding to start the brick kiln, Song Yingkui was very nervous, and he took the trouble to explain to the strong men in the village that they should work carefully.

While demanding others, he is also quite strict with himself.Ask Qin carpenter and Tan Yaotou and others for advice on the technical requirements and essentials of kiln building.As long as you have time, go to the kiln that is already in operation to observe the layout and workmanship.Not afraid of being looked down upon by others, he humbly asks all kinds of old craftsmen for advice, even if people don't like to talk to him, he still climbs up the pole.

During the construction process, Song Yingkui stared at the process in every detail, and had strict requirements on craftsmanship.This is the first time he has presided over a civil engineering project in two lifetimes, and he is afraid of any accidents.If the hoop kiln can't be used, or if there is an accident in the middle, or the kiln collapses, all his work in the craftsman's camp will be over.

The hard work paid off, after ten days of intensive construction, the brick kiln that he personally presided over was finally finished, and it was successfully handed over to Tan Yaotou to take people to burn bricks.

"Uncle Tan, can the kiln be used?" After two days of operation of the brick kiln, Song Yingkui approached Tan Yaotou to inquire about the usage.

"There are cracks in some places, but I've seen that it's not a big problem. You can just bring someone to repair the leak after you're done. It's the first time you lead someone to do such a big job, and it's not bad to be able to do this. I think your doll is born to eat the rice of our craftsmen. After this job is over, we will keep in touch. If I take over the big job of burning bricks for others, I will ask your doll to come to the kiln!" .

"Okay! I'll go and see where the fire is leaking first, and see if it's serious." It seems that the brick kiln built is not perfect, so I have to go quickly to see if the problem is serious.Tan Yaotou judged that the problem was not serious, but Song Yingkui was a little worried.

After inspecting the kiln, Song Yingkui had a clear idea that the problem was indeed not serious, and there was nothing wrong with the theme structure, and it could be solved with minor repairs.

Although I was a little tired building the kiln this time, I took a lot of care.But it is very helpful for the training of personal ability. I have learned a lot of knowledge and skills that I did not know before. If I am in charge of civil engineering in the future, I will feel a little bit at ease.

Tan Yaotou said that in the future, if there is work to build a kiln, he will call him. I hope what he said is true.In this era, brick kilns are quite common.Due to the limitation of transportation conditions, many projects that require a large amount of bricks will build kilns and burn bricks on site.Unlike later generations, bricks and tiles are bought from specialized factories.A good kiln burner is also most of the kiln builders!
In the following time, Song Yingkui was busy at the graveyard repairing site. Carpenter Qin arranged for him a lot of work with people, including all kinds of mess.

For some jobs that require a lot of people, he will find the strong men in the village to do them. If there are few people needed, he will draw a few people from the strong men.Because the work Song Yingkui leads people to do is generally more technical, sometimes he can take care of a meal, and sometimes the work is easier, the people in the village are very willing to work with him, this is also a disguised form of taking care of the folks.The ones most taken care of by Song Yingkui were naturally Lao Fang's Fifth Uncle and his staff.When you are away from home, you are blood relatives after all, so if you can help with the little power in your hand, just help, anyway, whoever you take to work is not doing it?

When Song Yingkui was in the corvee team, getting more and more comfortable, an unexpected thing happened.

On this day, Song Yingkui was repairing things in the material yard with his third uncle and Ding Huanyi.Uncle Wu of the old house suddenly ran over in a panic.

"Fifth, what's wrong? You're out of breath!" Didn't you take him alive today?What is he doing here?
"Kuiwa, something happened. Chief Yang Bao asked me to come over and call you over."

"What's the matter?" The chief security officer came looking for him specifically?Song Yingkui felt that the matter should be very serious, wouldn't it be something bad for him?
"Wang Liu in our village, when we rammed the wall, he lost his footing on the rafters and fell into the pit. When we ran over to see it, he had already died. Yang Shunan asked me to call you over to discuss the following matters." The fifth uncle of the old house panted heavily and told the story.

"The person in the village died? The chief security officer asked me to come over to discuss it? What do you want to discuss with me?" Someone in the young men's team died, and Song Yingkui was quite shocked.It's just that he didn't understand, what did the security chief ask him to discuss?Zhuangshang's life and death matters, what's the point of discussing with a 16-year-old doll?

Although he was very puzzled, Song Yingkui put down the work in hand and followed the fifth uncle of the old house to rush to the accommodation of Zhuang Ding.If in doubt, ask on the spot.Judging by Uncle Wu's appearance, he probably didn't know much about it.This is indeed a major event, but in the end it will not have a major relationship with me, so there is no need to be too anxious to figure it out.
