Chapter 46
The ancient organ street is exactly the same as the modern antique street.There are some shops on both sides of the street, which are empty and quiet, with a strong sense of antiquity.Not far from the store entrance are various street stalls. This place is much more chaotic and lively. The things on the stalls are very messy. Most of the things are not introduced, and you don’t even know what they are.

I can also imagine that the things in the store may be more authentic, but the price is definitely expensive.Chang Ming is almost a pauper now, so he doesn't have to think about buying anything inside.His target is the small stalls on both sides of the street.

There are broken and abandoned organs that may be repaired, but in most cases they can only be used as decorations; there are some ancient tools, mostly rulers; there are scattered accessories, and the value of collection is far greater than practicality. value.

The hawkers on the street stalls were hawking their own goods, and Chang Ming's eyes swept over these goods without stopping.

He is just a mechanism apprentice now, he has only been working on accessories, and has not really started to touch the mechanism yet.Regarding institutions, he only has the most superficial common sense, and he has no ability to tell whether they are true or false.Therefore, he only paid attention to the various accessories on the stall.

Looking at it this way, he saw something interesting.

He squatted down next to a stall, where there were a lot of various accessories, A-type gears, B-type screws... They were tattered, not complete, and there were some strange shapes, which should be for some kind of accessories. Organs are specially customized.

The peddler at the stall was a man in his 30s. He sized Chang Ming up and curled his lips.Chang Ming was wearing the coarse work clothes issued by the factory, with the name of the Qingmang factory printed on his chest, and he could tell at a glance that he was a poor worker working in the factory.This kind of person is their least favorite customer. They don't have much money, and they come here just to open their eyes and relax. They often ask for a long time, and they are reluctant to buy even a gear.

Sure enough, Chang Ming flipped through these accessories for a while, and then asked, "Brother, where did these accessories come from?"

The peddler said lazily: "The accessories here are all picked up from North Fuzhou, and they are all the wreckage of war monsters! They are very expensive, don't buy them if you don't understand!"

Isn't North Fuzhou the place where the organ war took place?What is a war behemoth?Most of them are large mechanism weapons in mechanism warfare.The mechanism war launched with the strength of the whole state and the whole state must of course gather the most powerful military force, the most advanced technology, and the best mechanism divisions. Even an accessory is very particular.

Based on the little information he got just now, Chang Ming deduced the matter after a turn in his mind.He picked up a gear, smiled and shook his head: "Brother, don't bluff people. Even if Dongwu Prefecture loses nine times in a row, we won't use this kind of accessories to fight!"

This is the most common wooden gear, and it is a defective piece. It has been polished unevenly, and there are burrs in many places.Chang Ming's earliest accessories were also much stronger than this one.

The peddler stared at him: "What about defective products? After a machine war, even such a powerful war monster will be maimed, let alone a small accessory!"

The defective products produced and the defective products after the battle are two different things...

Chang Ming shook his head, too lazy to talk to him.He rummaged through the pile of accessories for a while, and his movements gradually slowed down.

It was the first time since he learned mechanism skills that he watched the finished mechanism accessories made by others in such a large quantity.Most of these accessories are defective, and some of them don't even have the gray luster of defective products, so they are obviously unfinished.There are not even standard parts in it, let alone high-quality products. After searching for a long time, Chang Ming didn't see a single one.

But the most attractive among them are the unfinished products.

What the peddler said was not all lies. Many of these unfinished products have been damaged by external forces, such as a gear with a broken tooth, and cracks in the fan bones... The damage caused the finished luster of these accessories to disappear, but from these wreckage, there are vague You can see their original level.

During this time, Chang Ming has not stopped making accessories for a day, and he is very familiar with the "Twelve Methods of Basic Accessories".Now that he has integrated the twelve methods, all kinds of collocations are at his fingertips. The direct performance is that the accessories he makes are getting more and more sophisticated.

It was because of this familiarity that Chang Ming found that he could actually see the tricks used by this mechanism master from these broken parts!He was holding a special-shaped accessory in a daze. A small piece of this accessory was missing, making it unusable, but it could be seen that it was originally a fine product.Moreover, the production method of this accessory is very special, it seems to be some kind of modification of the circular cutting method.

It turns out that the circular cutting method can also be used in this way, and only a small change in one detail can perfectly solve this difficulty!
The circular cutting method can be modified, so what about other methods?Is it also possible to adapt to the situation and make slight changes?Holding this accessory, Chang Ming wandered away for a while, and all kinds of whimsical ideas came to him, as if a new door had been opened for him!
"Hey, are you going to buy it or not? If you don't buy it, don't stop here and delay my business!"

The peddler made noise impatiently, and Chang Ming woke up like a dream: "Oh, let me see again!"

He put the odd-shaped accessory aside as if nothing had happened, and then picked it up in the pile of accessories: "Brother, how do you sell these accessories? Let me tell you the real price."

The peddler said: "One silver coin, one price, the same price!"

Chang Ming laughed: "Brother, you really like to joke. Even if these things come from the war of institutions, they are all discarded. At most, they can be taken back and kept as a collection. They are useless at all. Fifty coppers One, I'll take a few more!"

The peddler said: "Even if it can't be used, I moved all the way back from Beifuzhou. The travel expenses are not cheap. And you also know that this is for collection. Can collections be the same as ordinary accessories? Eight One hundred coppers, no bargaining!"

Chang Ming said: "If it weren't for collections, no one would pick these things up in the trash, right? Look, metal materials can be recycled and smelted, what can these wood and bones do? I just want to Motivate yourself, look at others, and then look at yourself, life is all about hard work! Eighty coppers, sell out early and rest early."

The two sides bargained and finally settled on one hundred coppers.As a matter of fact, there are indeed accessories dumped from North Fuzhou here, but most of them are real garbage, mixed in with fake fish eyes.This rubbish is not worth a penny, as long as it can be sold, it is a pure profit.

The peddler hummed and said, "It's so cheap for you, you can get a few more."

Chang Ming smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pick and choose again!"

As he spoke, he picked out a string of five accessories from the pile of accessories and frowned.

All five fittings were made of bone, what appeared to be the same material, black as charred charcoal.They feel light and airy in the hand, and the sound of knocking is not metal but wood, very dull.They are only the size of a finger cap, and each accessory is a special-shaped accessory. At first glance, it is impossible to know where it will be used.All of them are dull and dull, and they are wastes that are not even inferior to defective products.

The peddler caught a glimpse of Chang Ming picking it up, and immediately shouted: "Let me tell you, these are five accessories, not one!"

They are strung together, it can be said to be one, or five. Of course, the hawker has to maximize his profits.

Chang Ming nodded casually, staring at the string of accessories, feeling very weird.

Chang Ming has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, for example, if one of the neatly arranged tiles on the floor is placed upside down and he sees it, he has to turn that tile upside down and rearrange it neatly.If he can't, he will suffer for a long time.Now his feeling is very similar to this, as if he saw a tile placed upside down, but he didn't know how to turn it upside down.

Chang Ming shook his head, the strange uncomfortable feeling lingering.He picked up a few more accessories and put them together in front of the peddler: "Just ten of these, one silver coin for each!"

The peddler saw that Chang Ming had counted the string of accessories separately, and was overjoyed. While collecting the money, the peddler said, "You have a good eye. Each one must be sold for at least one gold!"

Chang Ming smiled and nodded as he was being carried in a sedan chair: "Yes, that's because you are good."

Chang Ming has bought so many things and is still so talkative, the peddler has to regard Chang Ming as a confidant for a while, and his attitude towards him is completely different from before: "Okay, brother, have a good eye! My name is Xiaohou, and I put it here every day. Tan, you will still look for me next time you come! I will have new products coming in in two days, so come and take a look!"

Chang Ming nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely look for you next time. Lala's homework can be regarded as a relief!"

Xiao Hou set up a stall here all day long, and when there were no customers, he felt flustered. Hearing Chang Ming's words, he smiled and said, "Haha, I remember, I must come!"

The two laughed at each other. Looking at this scene, who would have thought that a few minutes ago, the peddler would be impatiently shouting at Chang Ming?
Chang Ming took the accessories and turned to leave. After turning his head a few steps, he saw Mo Yuanwang coming out of a shop.He was holding a gadget in his hand, and he laughed when he saw Chang Ming: "It seems that you also bought something?"

Chang Ming shook the small bag in his hand: "You also look like you've gained something, let's see?"

The two walked into a tea house, Mo Yuanwang put the thing in his palm on the table, and Chang Ming asked in surprise, "What is this?"

It's not that he couldn't recognize it, but he couldn't think of why Mo Yuanwang regarded this thing so preciously - it was clearly a small clock!Three pointers and twelve scales are ticking away.

Chang Ming has known for a long time that the various weights and measures in this world are similar to the world before he traveled, and the time is also the same.There is a big clock in the Qingmang factory, which will ring at a certain time, and it is specially used to remind workers when to go to and from get off work.Therefore, he didn't think the clock was such a rare thing.Looking at Mo Yuanwang now, it doesn't seem like that's the case?

Sure enough, Mo Yuanwang said: "This is an intermediate mechanism - a timekeeping clock. It is absolutely impossible for a master not to be able to make the clock so small and accurate!"

Small?
Chang Ming looked at the clock as big as a fist and about the size of an old-fashioned alarm clock, and thought: If this is considered small, then what is a watch?
