Chapter 597: Specialization in Skills and Trades

Each household's elders cut willow branches and reeds by the riverbank, continuing to weave baskets, mats, and new kang beds.

Firstly, the elderly are not idle and always look for something to do.

Secondly, when harvesting fruits from the orchard, a large number of baskets are needed.

Each household in Ercun needs new kang beds for their new houses.

Rarely did the Marquis have a free afternoon, but these two days he was not busy. After lunch and when the drizzle had stopped, the Marquis took a stroll in the Li family courtyard with Jia Yin.

Previously, Li Laotai and Tao Hongying had already made dried noodles once.

Write down the specific steps and quantities of materials clearly.

At this moment, the veterans were gathered together, listening to Tao Hongying explain the steps, and even she was teaching them step by step.

But men are rough and clumsy, even with over a hundred people learning, they're all like ducks hearing thunder, not understanding at all.

Tao Hongying's words came out dry, her tongue feeling thick. Seeing this, she too felt a little disheartened.

The Marquis frowned and asked Jia Yin in a low voice, "Funiu'er, do you think we should give them a different line of work"

Jia Yin is also worried. After considering everything, this business of making noodles really is the simplest and fastest to see results!

"Father, let me think about it some more and see if there's a better way."

The Lord rubbed the little girl's hair, feeling sorry for her too.

After all, these adults couldn't do it, and the idea of making noodles came from Fu Niuer.

He then added, "If you can't think of anything, it's okay. If it really doesn't work out, your adoptive father can go to your uncle and rob two more imperial estates, forcing them to farm."

"No, no, Godfather!" Jiayin softened her heart, she couldn't bear it.

After all, these wounded soldiers have already decided to settle down. Moving them again would probably dash their hopes for a new life.

"I'll think about it some more, there's definitely a good way to handle this!" Jiayin leaned on the windowsill, secretly looking inside.

Little fox joined in the fun and squeezed onto the windowsill too.

Jia Yin simply used it as a pillow, so as to avoid hitting her chin on the windowsill.

A few wounded soldiers were in the window, also worried, sitting and sighing.

"I'm such a klutz, my hands are like bear paws, I can't even make noodles properly."

"Me too, my eyes can see it, but my hands can't keep up."

"I'm doing okay. I think making noodles is pretty simple, it's just the proofing that's a bit troublesome."

"You're wrong, making noodles is easy, kneading the dough is troublesome."

Several people argued, each convinced they were right.

But this reminded the eavesdropper of the beautiful sound!

Every trade has its specialization, so let's specialize!

"Father, I understand. I have a plan!"

She ran over and pulled her stepfather's hand down to squat. Then, she picked up a stone and drew something on the ground.

"Father, look, making noodles involves these steps. If everyone learns together, they have to learn from the beginning to the end. Why not learn in separate parts instead!"

For example, those who like to make noodles can keep making noodles, and of course they will become proficient in no time. Those responsible for kneading the noodles will keep kneading the noodles, and naturally they will become more skilled!

"That way, everyone only learns one step, learns it quickly, and does it quickly. When all the steps are combined together, it becomes easy."

The lord's eyes lit up as he took the stone, sketched a few lines on it, and finally broke into a smile. "This method might be worth a try. It might really solve the big problem."

Jia Yin proudly raised her chin and said, “Rest assured, godfather, this is called a production line. It's not just for noodle shops; all workshops can be arranged like this in the future!”

Just as Li La Er came out of the house, he heard this and asked, "What new idea does my daughter Fu Niu have again"

Jia Yin quickly pulled her second uncle forward and explained in detail, finally saying: "For example, if Grandma and the others make shoes, they have four steps: gluing the soles, inserting the soles, edging, and sewing the uppers. One person can easily glue ten pairs of soles or insert ten pairs of soles in a day."

“But with four people, working together, they can make ten pairs of shoes in a day. If each person was responsible for the whole process from start to finish, one person could only make one pair a day, totaling only four pairs. That is to say, the assembly line method can increase efficiency by more than double!”

Li Lao'er listened and nodded repeatedly, then said to the Marquis, "Marquis, aren't you going to collect a batch of shoes for the relief agency to sew tomorrow You can try this assembly line first to see if it works!"

The lord also remembered this, “I almost forgot about it, then let's try it first!”

Jia Yin listened to her mother's words and was speechless. She hurried into the house and grabbed her mother's hand, saying, "Mother, my stepfather has come up with a good plan. We can easily teach these uncles. Let's just skip class today, and we can teach them in a few days."

Before Tao Hongying could reply, the wounded soldiers were already happily cheering.

"Really, the lord came up with a good plan!"

"That's wonderful! I must be such a dense person."

"Me too, I'm really sorry to the General's wife, after speaking for so long, my head is still full of mush."

Tao Hongying was afraid they would lose confidence, so she quickly said: "Perhaps teaching too much all at once today, it's normal that everyone can't learn. When you go back, if you have nothing to do, just think about it, and next time we'll be able to learn more easily."

Everyone thanked him profusely and then dispersed.

Tao Hongying drank two bowls of water in one gulp, her arms holding a teacup. Li Laosi felt sorry for her and whispered, “Should we go to Zhang Shenyi’s place to get some medicine Your throat will probably hurt tomorrow morning.”

Tao Hongying smiled and glared at him, replying: "No need, I'm not injured. Just drink some more water!"

Then I’ll boil some water for you. I remember there’s honey at home, I’ll make you a bowl to drink.

Li Laosi said as he started to busy himself.

Tao Hongying was afraid he wasn't familiar with the way, so she followed behind and directed him.

Jia Yin, this female friend, completely became a background character.

With its mouth full of dog food, the dog could only take the little fox to grandma.

Luckily, she was always Grandma's precious little one...

The next morning, Li Lao'er went out with the Marquis.

When it was almost noon, Li La Er hired a dozen or so carriages and ostentatiously transported a large amount of cloth, cotton and other supplies into the relief office.

Naturally, those with a curious mind will want to ask.

Then, news spread that Marquis Xin Ting had instructed the relief agency to make cotton shoes needed by the military.

Some people say this is a good method. Soldiers can get cotton shoes to keep warm in winter, and the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled from the Relief Agency also have work to do, enabling them to support themselves.

Some people say that Marquis Xin Ting was close friends with Lord Zhongshan, was this nepotism and injustice

Of course, more people simply don't care...

Because the official notice had been issued for several days, their children and grandchildren were going to the Ministry of War's registration booth at the city gate to sign up and be listed.

When the list is done, anyone who wants to change it will be a deserter and will be beheaded!

That leaves little time for them to operate.

But the emperor wouldn't budge, not even for the empress's own younger brother. The old marquis of Jiangning was so distressed that he fell ill, and still the emperor didn't change his mind!

For a time, everyone fell into despair.

Even those who had previously remained calm, hoping the Emperor would revoke his decree, are now growing restless.ation throughout their bodies, it was incredibly refreshing.Jia Ren couldn't help but mutter to his two friends, "In such hot weather, you guys are actually going to eat barbecue Isn't that adding fue...
