Datang all-rounder

Chapter 304

As soon as Comrade Li Er’s imperial decree was issued, a large sign was erected at the door of Wang Ke’s office, with the words “Map Drawing Bureau” written by Comrade Li Er on it, and there was no longer just Wang Ke’s office in a yard. The door was open, but now all the rooms were opened, and there were quite a few people coming in and out. They were all arranging the rooms according to their functions according to Wang Ke's instructions.

Wang Ke stood in the middle of the yard, gesticulating and yelling non-stop. Since arriving here in the morning, Wang Ke hadn't sat down for a while, but stood there, directing the group of people under him to hurry up and do things.

What Wang Ke is thinking now is to quickly arrange everything here, and then wait for the people he selected to come to report, and do it according to their respective specialties, and then he has to go to Li Jing, and ask Li Jing to help select a batch People come to me, and I personally teach these people how to go out and collect information, so that when they come back, the mappers can draw the map that Wang Ke wants based on the data they collected.

As for making the sand table, Wang Ke doesn't care about it now. As long as the map can be drawn, the sand table is not difficult. You only need to refer to the map, zoom in and out according to the scale, and you can make it quickly. It doesn't need to be as troublesome as before. .

At this moment, out of the corner of Wang Ke's eyes, Wang Ke saw a few people walking in from the courtyard gate, and hurriedly turned his head to look, but it was Li Jing and Li Ji who were walking towards him with a few people wearing craftsman's clothes .

Although Wang Ke is an official personally appointed by Comrade Li Er, the current Cartography Bureau is still nominally affiliated to the General Staff. Although Li Jing and Wang Ke are well aware of it, the obvious thing must be maintained. Yes, speaking of it, Wang Ke is still Li Jing's subordinate.

In fact, for Wang Ke, he is more willing to deal with these old killers. In Wang Ke's view, staying with these old killers is not like those civil servants. Always think about it. Is there any meaning to the words spoken in the book, and these old killers are different. They say what they say, and they are unhappy, and it immediately shows on their faces. Wang Ke thinks this is good, and he himself Don't spend time trying to figure out what's on their minds.Although sometimes these old killers also habitually use force, but with Wang Ke's eyes, it is not impossible to see it, and they can be prepared in advance, lest these old killers' fists fall on themselves body.

Now Li Jing and the others brought people here, although Wang Ke didn't know who they brought, but Wang Ke knew one thing, that is, Li Jing and the others would not bring useless people to themselves. Those people must be what I need here, so I hurried to meet them.

After letting Li Jing and the others into his office, Wang Ke saw that the few people who came with Li Jing and the others stood outside the door and did not dare to come in. Knowing that the status of this craftsman is low now, he could come here with Li Jing and stand at the door It's already good enough, if I ask them to come in and sit down now, even if I have good intentions, I will probably scare them quite badly.

So I apologized to Li Jing and Li Ji, went to the door and called a person, and asked him to bring some chairs over and put them under the eaves outside the door, let these craftsmen sit down and rest, and gave each of them a drink. tea.

Wang Ke could see that the eyes of these craftsmen were full of gratitude. After all, for these people, such treatment had never been encountered before. Wang Ke smiled at them and clicked He shook his head, then turned and went back into the house.

As soon as Wang Ke came in, Li Jing smiled and said, "Nephew treats the craftsmen so kindly, it seems that the old man is right!"

Wang Ke knew what Li Jing meant, but what he was concerned about now was what Li Jing and the others brought a group of craftsmen to him today. He was afraid that once he and Li Jing became humble, he would not know when it would be involved. I was still thinking about the things outside, so I should ask Li Jing and the others away quickly after asking them clearly, so that I can go about my own business.

Wang Ke smiled at Li Jing and said: "Uncle praises my nephew, but my nephew is really afraid to do it. I don't know what the two uncles need my nephew to do today? Please tell me directly, uncle."

When Li Jing came in, he saw that Wang Ke was very busy here, and he didn't have the intention to stay here for a long time. He just wanted to leave immediately after finishing his business, so as not to delay Wang Ke's work. Now they all know that Wang Ke is here. Comrade Li Er personally ordered the formation, which also shows that Comrade Li Er attaches great importance to this matter.

Based on their experience of accompanying Comrade Li Er for so many years, Comrade Li Er will not do anything if he does not do it. If he wants to see the benefits in the shortest time, if he delays Wang Ke's progress because of himself, Wang Ke will be fine. If I don't tell Comrade Li Er that it's my fault, I won't be able to bear it in my heart.

Now that Wang Ke has also asked about it, as Li Jing, he will not go around any detours, and said directly: "I think you will draw a map here. It doesn't matter if you only draw one copy of each map. If there is more demand I am afraid that it will take a lot of time to do it. If the time is too tight, I am afraid that it may not be completed on time. The old man remembered that there are still a few craftsmen who can make stereotypes in our place, so I brought them to my nephew. I don't know if my nephew will be useful or not."

Li Jing's words made Wang Ke both surprised and happy. He never expected that Li Jing really did him a big favor. Wang Ke thought of this problem before. Once there are more people using a map, it is bound to Ask yourself to equip all the people who need it here. At that time, you will have to find a lot of people to paint. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have high time requirements. Even if all the people are dispatched, it may not be completed on time.

It's different now, as long as there are people who can print, even if it's just stereotyped printing as Li Jing said, the efficiency will be improved a lot, and the demand for personnel here will be greatly reduced. As for the improvement of this printing method , When everything is on track in the future, it will not be too late to find ways to improve.

Wang Ke saluted and thanked Li Jing and Li Ji again and again, the excitement and gratitude on his face also fully expressed Wang Ke's mood on this matter.

Although Wang Ke didn't say a word, his actions have already made Li Jing and Li Ji understand that this is not only the right thing to do, but also something that Wang Ke never thought about. For Wang Ke, it is simply a surprise , Both of them couldn't help showing joyful expressions on their faces.

Li Jing stood up very proudly, waved his hand casually at Wang Ke and said, "Nephew, you don't have to thank us, they are all working for the emperor, it's nothing, I just hope that nephew can quickly do something for me. A satisfactory sand table is here, so that the old man can use it well. My nephew has a lot of affairs, and we won't stay here any longer. We will go there at this time. If there is anything that needs the old man's help, my nephew can just ask. "

Li Jing said while thinking about walking outside the door, Wang Ke quickly followed behind Li Jing, stepped out of the door together, and came to several craftsmen, Li Jing explained the matter clearly, and then went to Wang Ke together with Li Ji He bowed his hands and left.

After watching Li Jing's leaving back disappeared, Wang Ke hurriedly called several craftsmen into the room and asked them to sit down before asking. From the descriptions of several craftsmen, Wang Ke knew that these craftsmen had already I have been engaged in printing for several years, but there are not many things printed on weekdays, and they are often idle. If they do not receive monthly salaries, no one will remember their existence.

Wang Ke said with a serious face: "Now that you are here with me, don't think about having idle time. When you are here, don't think about taking money for nothing!"

Wang Ke said this with the intention of beating these people. After all, listening to their words means that they have been idle before. If they come to her now, they will be so busy that they are really serious. I'm not used to it, if I don't talk about my ugliness first, then these people will feel tired or something, if they don't work well, and they always think about being lazy, then they won't be able to do it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Wang Ke's words fell, someone in this group of craftsmen said: "You just have to rest assured, if you don't like this skill, you won't stay with this job all the time. If you don't want to do it , I have already asked Marshal Li to return home."

Following the voice, Wang Ke saw that the speaker was obviously the leader among the group of craftsmen. When he was speaking, everyone looked at him in agreement. It can be seen that the craftsman spoke in the group There is prestige among craftsmen.

Although the craftsman's words were a little rash and disrespectful, Wang Ke didn't have the slightest grudge, on the contrary, he admired the craftsman's words very much.

For Wang Ke, what he wants is such a worker. As long as he likes his job, even if he is not doing well now, he will definitely learn to improve his skills. Wang Ke knows a word: interest is best teacher ever.As long as he is interested, nothing will be difficult for him!
Wang Ke smiled and said to the craftsman: "What's your name? From now on, these people will be managed by you. If you have anything to do, just come to me, and I will give you the greatest support, because your skills will be an important task. It is up to you to pass on the promising skills.”

Wang Ke's words are undoubtedly a great encouragement to this group of craftsmen. Printing has a long history, but before that, it has not received much attention, because since the invention of printing, there has always been a fatal flaw, that is, The engraving blocks used for printing are all used and engraved on the spot. In addition, the poor paper used to print on other fabrics can't be well expressed, so this skill has not been well developed.

But in the eyes of Wang Ke, this is a treasure. People in later generations know that printing is one of the four great inventions of China, and Wang Ke is from later generations, and he has a certain understanding of the development process of printing. Moving everything that can be used to this time will be a huge leap forward for this industry, and it will also greatly improve Wang Ke's efficiency here.

Seeing that Wang Ke was not angry, the craftsman felt relieved, saluted Wang Ke and said, "My lord, the younger one is called Wu Jin. If you have any orders from the elder, just tell the younger one, and the younger one will definitely do his best." I can do it for adults!"

Wang Ke nodded: "Very good! Wu Jin, I will arrange a place for you now. Just make a list of what you need, and I will prepare everything for you. I hope you will not let me down!"

After Wang Ke finished speaking, he brought Wu Jin and his group to the yard, designated a relatively spacious room as their working place, and asked them to clean up by themselves, and then walked back to his office with three steps at a time. , to reminisce about the unexpected joy that Li Jing brought to himself.

Now Wang Ke can completely believe that no matter how urgent the matter is in the future, as long as there are these printing craftsmen around, he will not have any problems.Now for these printing craftsmen, Wang Ke just needs to know how they usually print. If it can be done as he thinks, then the printed map in the future will no longer be a black pattern on white paper. Instead, a colored map will appear. This kind of map is more intuitive and convenient. I think people in this era will like it when they see it.

Wang Ke sat on the chair, thinking about this goal, and unconsciously said: "Color map, hehe..."
