Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 167, Wan Carpenter
Tianjin Shipyard.

The location of the shipyard is close to the sea, close to the port of Tianjin, covering a very large area, and Liu Jin bought all the surrounding large areas of land.

Not only is it used to build a shipyard, but it is also planned to be used in the future to build a school dedicated to building seagoing ships, and a huge family area has also been built to accommodate the employees of the shipyard.

Because Liu Jin attaches great importance to the shipyard and has invested a lot of money, so although the shipyard has not started for a long time, with the investment of a lot of manpower and a lot of money, it has already been completed. Quite a size.

Among them, a large number of houses have been built in the family area. Some of these houses are first-entry houses, some are second-entry houses, and some are third-entry yards that occupy a relatively large area.

Liu Jin knows that shipbuilding is a very technical thing. Even if he has the technology, this technology still needs people to learn and do it. This means that the shipyard needs a lot of talents, shipbuilding talents.

Only on the basis of a large number of talents can qualified ships be built, and large-scale shipbuilding be possible, and the shipbuilding technology be brought out from the old to bring forth the new, and constantly upgraded.

This must pay attention to the attention and training of talents and skilled workers. In this regard, Liu Jin is going to learn from future technology companies. He must not only pay high salaries to talents, but also find ways to solve his housing problems and children's education. Civilization, even for a single bachelor, has to find a way to solve his life events.

Only in this way can we truly retain talents and let everyone know the value of talents, so that some people are willing to sink their hearts into this shipbuilding technology and gradually improve the level of shipbuilding.

Although the current Tianjin Shipyard has a lot of money invested in it, because the Ming Dynasty has banned the sea for a long time, there is a shortage of shipbuilding talents, and it is difficult to find shipbuilding talents, so Liu Jin also bought it with a lot of money. Bone, on the one hand, just like Xishan Coal Industry, cultivate shipbuilding talents by themselves.

All kinds of talents have been distinguished when recruiting workers. People with carpentry, blacksmith, masonry and other crafts are treated differently, especially in shipbuilding, where a large number of carpenters have gathered.

Since there are no shipbuilders, we should use carpenters to support them first, and then combine our own training to gradually turn these carpenters into qualified shipbuilding technicians.

On the side of the shipyard, the first batch of completed houses were first allocated to the stewards and carpenters in the shipyard, in order to show Liu Jin's emphasis on talents.

In the shipyard staff area, rows of brand-new houses are neatly arranged. These houses are all planned and constructed in a unified way. There are wide roads paved with gravel at the door of every house, and the facades are also built very large, full of style. Such a house is definitely the dream of countless people in this era.

Carpenter Wan was originally just a very ordinary carpenter. Because there was a famine in his family, he also took his family to Tianjin to escape.

Liu Jin recruited people on a large scale. Because he is a carpenter, he naturally entered the shipyard to work very smoothly, and because of his good carpenter skills, he was rated as a third-level carpenter by the shipyard.

He was rated as a third-level carpenter. Not only could he receive seven taels of silver a month, this salary was definitely beyond his imagination. He never dreamed that he could earn seven taels of silver a month by doing carpentry.

You must know that in this era when you can marry a daughter-in-law for three taels of silver, the monthly salary of seven taels of silver is definitely sky-high, far beyond the sky-high price imagined.

But this is just the beginning. Not long ago, part of the family quarters on the shipyard side were built. As a third-level carpenter, he was even assigned a house of his own.

He still clearly remembers that when he received the key and deed of his own house, the whole family was very excited for several days after coming to this house that he had never dreamed of living in before. Laughing from ear to ear.

At this time, in the yard of his home, Carpenter Wan was teaching his son how to be a carpenter.

"A carpenter must be skillful, and a doctor must be old. As carpenters, we must use ingenuity to follow the grain of the wood. If the grain of the wood is correct, we will get twice the result with half the effort, and the work will be decent."

Carpenter Wan's eldest son is already fourteen years old. He used to be unwilling to learn from him as a carpenter, thinking that he would be worthless to be a carpenter. The monthly money, but also allocated to their own house.

So there is no need for Carpenter Wan to tell him. His son has already asked Carpenter Wan to teach him how to do carpentry. He also wants to enter the shipyard, get a few taels of silver a month's wages, and get a house of his own. After all, he is fourteen years old. Now, it's almost time to start a family.

Carpenter Wan watched his son earnestly planing wood, and nodded in satisfaction. The smell of cooking came from the kitchen, and his wife, Mrs. Xu, also looked into the yard from time to time.

I am very satisfied with this house. Not only does it have a separate kitchen and dining room, but it also has a separate hut. The tap water is still drawn from the Haihe River. The switch here is lightly opened There is water, which is very convenient.

Carpenter Wan looked at his wife, Xu, and couldn't help raising his head. In the past, he was a strict wife, because he couldn't make much money as a carpenter, and it was difficult to support his family, so he was always called by Xu. ridicule.

But now it’s different, a few liang of silver a month is taken home, and they live in this brand-new, brand-new house. The family of six is ​​living a happy life that was unimaginable before, and his wife is also obedient to Wan Carpenter. , Seeing Carpenter Wan's eyes are different. He even objected to his son learning to be a carpenter from Carpenter Wan before, but now he takes the initiative to ask Carpenter Wan to teach a few children to be carpenters.

"Hurry up and get the meals ready. After I finish eating, I have to go to work in the factory. I'm always dawdling. If I'm late, I'll give the higher-ups a bad impression."

Carpenter Wan yelled at Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu used to yell at Mrs. Wan, but now it's the other way around.

Instead of being angry, Mrs. Xu who was being yelled at speeded up her speed and said at the same time: "The meal is ready, and one of the dishes is also ready. Hurry up and eat first. Don't be late, or your wages will be deducted."

"Hmm~"

Wan Carpenter was very satisfied and said, just as he was preparing to eat, a voice came from outside.

"Wan Carpenter, Wan Carpenter, come out quickly, Mr. Liu has sent us fish!"

　I wonder if you like to watch this kind of bridge?
