Rebirth Craftsman

Of course, as the price of slag went up, there were fewer brick factories using slag to make red bricks.

In the end, even the brick factory was eliminated.

Not because of the quality of the red bricks.

But decades later, because of environmental protection and other reasons, rural areas will not allow large-scale environmental pollution factories such as brick factories to exist.

This is a kind of progress of the times, but it is also a kind of sadness of the times.

It’s because when I really waited for this time, the high housing prices were scary. I’m afraid it’s a white-collar worker with an annual income of one million. In some first-tier cities, after ten years of hard work, they may not be able to buy a set of their favorites. room.

How did Liu Dageng and Si Konglei know this? They only knew that they had succeeded in making brick blanks with slag. This was a big improvement. Right now they rolled up their sleeves and were busy making other brick blanks.

The red brick sample furnace can only fire about two hundred red bricks at a time, unlike the large kilns in the brick factory, which can fire tens of thousands of bricks at a time.

Of course, this red brick sample furnace also has its advantages.

That is, the speed of burning red bricks is very fast.

Basically, as long as there are no problems.

It can be done in about an hour.

Seeing that dozens of brick embryos had been made, Liu Xing was not idle at the moment, and he walked towards the red brick sample furnace with the wooden board.

Although this kind of work was dirty and tiring, he didn't care at all.

In his heart, he still remembers how his father burned red bricks on the Shai Valley field day and night in order to build his own red brick house.

Due to the soil problem, it took the whole family and the whole family for three years to make the red bricks needed by the red brick house.

But so what, the red brick house was finally built.

My sister was crushed to death by the old adobe house because of poverty.

Now although he reversed the world, he saved his sister.

But I don't know why, every time he thinks of red bricks, his heart hurts.

Because it would remind him of cute little peanuts.

But now it's better. Because of his rebirth, his family will never suffer such hardships again.

The production speed of two hundred brick blanks was very fast, that is, half an hour. All the brick blanks were not only produced, but also neatly placed in the red brick sample furnace.

Next is the red brick that needs to be fired.

Afraid of accidents, Sikong Lei asked, "This brick embryo is considered a success according to your method. What problems should I pay attention to in the next firing?"

"Just burn it directly according to your previous method. This is not a high-tech thing!" Liu Xing smiled, took the shovel and poured the coal in the corner into the one-person high red brick sample furnace.

Liu Dageng quickly came to help with a shovel.

It takes a while.

The red brick sample furnace was filled with coal, then it was lit, and the red bricks placed in it were fired.

Liu Xing knew it would take at least half an hour, so he patted the dust on his body and walked out.

Because of their excitement, Si Konglei and Liu Dageng did not bother Liu Xing, but braved the temperature of fifty to sixty degrees to stand by.

When Liu Xing came back, the hot temperature emitted by the red brick sample stove had gradually dropped.

However, the furnace cannot be started at this time.

Liu Xing had no choice but to squat by and guard.

There was nothing to say about the future development direction of the brick factory with his father and Si Konglei, as well as some issues to pay attention to.

This time, he unreservedly told most of what he knew, but he did not say that these experiences were brought about by rebirth.

Sikong Lei was very excited. In order to prevent Liu Xing from forgetting what Liu Xing said, he quickly took out a notebook and wrote it down.

Liu Dageng didn't do this, but instead remembered what Liu Xing had said in his heart with horror. After hearing some exciting management plans, he couldn't even speak his admiration.

He really couldn't think of Liu Xing's so young age, who knew so much. Is this a legendary talent?

Talking and chatting, more than an hour passed in a flash.

Seeing that the sky is getting dark, Liu Xing immediately said: "No nonsense, quickly turn on the furnace and see how the quality of the red bricks fired from the slag is!"

"it is good!"

"I come!"

Sikonglei and Liu Dageng used a specially-made large iron hook to poke the seal of the red brick sample furnace, and then moved a little farther away. After a large amount of dust was dispersed, they cautiously burned the inside with gloves. A piece of the red brick was taken out.

The whole red brick was dark red, and the middle part even turned black and cyan. I knocked on it with my hand, and I could even hear the metallic sound.

Sikong Lei held his breath. In order to test the quality of the red brick, he slammed it down with a fist.

If nothing happens, under normal circumstances, under the power of his fist, the fired red brick will be split in half. If the quality is not good, it will even be shattered. After all, he is a special soldier, and the power of this fist can be smashed. Not kidding.

However, in the next second, he squatted on the ground like a flashing Xiami, tears came out, seeing the red brick in his hand, nothing happened.

But Sikong Lei's fist was bleeding.

Even the calluses fell off and fell to the ground.

Liu Xing looked a little distressed, and immediately asked, "Brother Lei, are you okay?"

"Yeah! Are you stupid? Use your fists to check the quality of the red bricks. This result is out, but your hands are a little troublesome!" Liu Dageng said worriedly.

"Hahaha... it's okay! I'm okay!" Sikong Lei looked at the red brick in his hand and laughed excitedly: "It is really unexpected that the quality of the red bricks fired from the slag is so good. Now it's fine. I can brag with my wife when I go back!"

"Cut!" Liu Xing gave Si Konglei a blank look, but then he smiled.

Liu Dageng was also very happy. He put on gloves and took out the two hundred red bricks in the red brick sample furnace. When he saw these red bricks hit each other, they made a metal sound, and he couldn't help but shook his head. .

Once such a good-quality red brick comes out, I'm afraid it will be in short supply.

No wonder Liu Xing asked him to sign a contract with his uncle who works in the winery, because he knew the horror of making bricks from slag.

With such brick-making technology, his brick factory will not make money, I am afraid it will be difficult!

Seeing that his tasks have been completed, Liu Xing said immediately: "Dad! It's dark, let's go back! Regarding the reopening of the brick factory and the recruitment of people, you can do it yourself, and I will not participate. "

There is no way. Now that the Chuanyan bamboo crossbow has been developed successfully, he must go back and improve it immediately and produce it in large quantities. Only in this way can he catch up with the progress of building the bamboo bridge.

Otherwise it would be a little troublesome.

However, Liu Dageng refused to let Liu Xing go. He saw that Si Konglei meant the same thing. After thinking about it, he said: "It's not anxious to go back at this moment. There are motorcycles that are very fast. You can tell me now. What details need to be paid attention to when this brick factory reopens? I'm already afraid of this opening, and I'm afraid that those from the Quality Supervision Bureau will be asking for trouble!"

"Ha ha... okay!" Liu Xing smiled, and there was no way to worry about his father's timidity. After he moved a chair and sat down, he said: "First, try to recruit Those outsiders, this time the brick factory closed down because of the compensation for medical expenses. However, many local villagers secretly said that you were not kind to your wealth. These bad words seemed to be nothing but damage the reputation of the brick factory. Doing business is very bad, so... as far as possible, recruit people from outsiders! But first, let me explain that child laborers under the age of sixteen are not allowed to do so if they are caught by someone. , I’m afraid the money earned this year will be fined."

Although the management of labor was very loose in 1994, even the use of child labor was not a big deal, but Liu Xing did not want to do this, because he wanted his father to have an understanding of child labor when he first started to manage. Once you do, there will be no mistakes afterwards.

"Well, I will love this!" Liu Dageng nodded.

However, the local villagers secretly said bad things about him, which was a blow to him. Because of the compensation for medical expenses and nutrition, none of the wounded who helped fights said they were dissatisfied, otherwise he had been in the past few days and ten. How the 10,000 yuan was spent, it is all real money and evidence!

It's better now. Turning his head to say bad things about him is really unpopular.

However, he knew that this shouldn't be said by the wounded who helped in the fight, but by the local villagers who watched the show and wanted to be compensated in the end.

There are such people in the brick factory, and many.

Liu Xing reminded him that when the brick factory reopened, it was time to take these villagers drastically.

Anyway, no labor contract was signed, and the money was calculated according to the piece rate.

Sikong Lei followed: "We won't do anything about hiring child labor and deducting wages. However, several brick factories in the surrounding villages are secretly recruiting child labor. It seems that they only provide food, not wages."

"We must never do such a thing!" Liu Xing once again warned, not for fear of going to jail for breaking the law, but for some things to rely on conscience.

He was born again. Although he could not help these child laborers who came to work in the brick factory because of dropout or poverty, he could refuse to do so.

At least these child laborers will not suffer the suffering that adults can only suffer in their teenage childhood.

This is not just a joke, but working in a brick factory, which is really not what ordinary people can do.

The weight of a red brick is generally about four to five kilograms. If you want to burn a brick into a red brick, and then load and transport the red brick, you can imagine the workload.

To put it bluntly, if an adult works all day, he will get down tired.

"By the way! Recruitment is just one of the details, so are there other details that need attention?" Sikong Lei couldn't help asking.

When Liu Dageng heard this, he listened with bated breath.

"Other details... In addition to paying attention to safety, there is also the need to spend money to rebuild the dormitory of the brick factory. These temporary dormitories left over from the boss of Yi are no longer usable, in case they collapse. If something happens, I am afraid that more money will be spent at that time!" Liu Xing groaned for a while and said everything he thought of.
