I went ashore by weaving straw shoes and became a master craftsman

Chapter 134 Logistics Craftsman Wang Ge
Wang Ge finished twisting the straw rope at the beginning of the morning.Because she is used to working hard on weekdays and is in intense competitions, she doesn't feel tired.

"Candidate passed."

She saluted and moved forward happily.

But after being unable to choose a model for several utensil racks, Huanxi became anxious.On the next utensil shelf next to the straw rope is a coir raincoat made of coir grass...and a straw basket.There are three kinds of materials for straw baskets: reeds, willow stems and cattail grass.If she chooses this group of models, she may not be able to make them before the end of the exam.

Then make another set of models: a big straw mat... add two straw baskets like the one just now.

Then: five pairs of ordinary straw sandals, and three straw baskets.

Wang Ge was very depressed: Could it be that the government is in urgent need of straw?Then mix it up with something else?

Finally came across a place to go to the toilet.The place is not big, it takes up an empty space of an utensil shelf, because there are baffles on both sides, it is just right to add a baffle at the front and back.But what's the point of having a hole in the flap that serves as the front door?She pushed the door open and came in. The hole was the crossbar of the latch.

I understand, there must be a mark on the inside of the crossbar. When the bolt is bolted inside, the mark can be seen in the hole outside, which means that there are candidates in the toilet.

Tsk tsk tsk, it's too advanced.The inconvenient thing is that there is only a big wooden basin inside, and she almost split into a horse.

After coming out, next to the utensil shelf... Wang Ge was extremely surprised, his eyes widened.Just a small straw basket with two wheat cakes in it.She picked up the basket in a panic, but why is there no material on the ground?Also, is the cake a prop?where?
The inspector on the opposite side tried his best to hold back a smile, and his face looked particularly fierce: "This is not a utensil rack, this is the leftover dinner for candidates, take a cake and put down the basket!"

"Oh." Wang Ge was used to being thick-skinned, and immediately raised his hand and asked, "Is there any water?"

The inspector raised his jaw in front of her.

Wang Ge saluted.A few steps forward, sure enough, the next utensil shelf is full of water bowls.There is meat filling in the pie, and there is a lot of filling.It's broken, why are there still candidates coming from behind?

Did it come out of a bamboo shed or a wooden shed?
Wang Ge even poured two bowls of water, gobbled it up and walked forward.

The next utensil shelf, the next and the next are all empty.

Then she saw the lower set...the two pairs of shoes bundled together, the bottom one was slightly bigger.According to visual inspection, the upper and lower pairs have the same format and materials.The standard style is straw sandals with full ears and straps; the material is kudzu vine and miscanthus, the shoes have a wide body and a single sole.

They are exactly the same as the square-toed shoes she made in Qinghezhuang temporary workshop after the craftsman examination.

She asked Huan Zhen that this kind of straw sandals were mostly worn by ordinary soldiers when they were marching and fighting. In order to walk lightly and wear-resistant, the soles of the feet were thickly woven, and the heels were thin.

At this time, the candidates behind encountered the same depressing experience as Wang Ge, and used the basket of wheat cakes as a mold.

Wang Ge held the two pairs of straw sandals in his hands, and then got under the utensil shelf.

Yes, under the shelf is the examinee's sleeping place, covered with straw mats separated from the ground, almost lying down, she fell asleep in an instant.

Boom!In the distance, there are famous drums.

A bit of struggle appeared on Wang Ge's face, but he couldn't open his eyes.It happened that the sound of drums also appeared in her dream. In the dream, the wind was so strong that it couldn't blow away the fog that blocked her vision.

"I travel south alone...under the forest..."

I travel south alone, under the forest...

Thousands of voices appeared in the fog, each of which blew her hair up and pulled her skin into the fog, causing pain all over her body, as if she was about to shatter.

Wang Ge was terrified, but no matter how panicked he was in his dream, he knew he was dreaming, but he couldn't make a sound and couldn't wake up.

Who are you, who are you... Her questioning got stuck in her throat, and it became more and more blocked.

Suddenly, there was a light and crisp metal sound!It was the most commonly used carving knife in her previous life!Falling from above, it turned into a huge carving knife, splitting a gap in the path ahead for her, and the fog rolled into the path of the knife.

Boom, boom, boom...

The sound of the drum faded with the mist and became clear, no longer as if it was always separated by layers of urns.

dong dong dong dong!
The sound of the drum suddenly became violent, her feet were empty, she fell weightlessly, and finally woke up.

It was light.She gasped a few times in fear, sweating from the fear of the horrible dream.Pick up the sandals, drill out of the utensil rack, and bring the materials to the production area.This single-soled straw sandal was called "屦" before the Han Dynasty, and it was called "shoe" after the Han Dynasty.In fact, when Huan Langjun explained the square-toed shoes at that time, Wang Ge heard a hint that where the court was fighting a war, a large number of square-toed shoes were needed, which is the same reason why Nanshan carpenters rushed to hire craftsmen to make arrow shafts.

She calmed down, sat down on the ground, twisted a long length of miscanthus rope, used her feet as a target, and wrapped the other end around her waist to form a target.This is the most primitive method of making straw sandals without any auxiliary tools except forage, the same as when she competed for "artisan" in the village last year.

However, the square-toed shoes that use two kinds of grass materials are more complicated than those commonly worn by ordinary farmers.According to the warp and weft structure of the mould, she continued to rub the Miscanthus grass. The two Miscanthus grasses form a strand, and they are twisted into two standard ropes, which are used as the "warp rope" for the soles of the straw shoes.Rubbing kudzu and miscanthus together form the "weft" of straw sandals.Every time you wear it back and forth, press the straw rope towards you to make it tight.

Straw sandals, like straw ropes, seem to never be elegant, but for the ordinary soldiers of the Jin Dynasty who fought on the front lines, they did not need those elegant works of art. They probably needed straw sandals urgently every day to reduce the wear and tear on their feet. pain of.

Slowly, Wang Ge's heart became sour, and he began to feel sorry for those ordinary soldiers.This is not hypocrisy, not the Virgin!She worshiped soldiers in her previous life, and it is the same in this life.If you can't go to the front line yourself, then do your part as a craftsman for them.She decided that after this exam, whenever she has free time every day, she will make this kind of straw sandals. The more the better, after saving up, she will donate the straw sandals to the front either through Nanshan or Huantingchang.

Now, I only hope that her pious heart will be poured into these two pairs of straw sandals, so that the soldiers can wear them longer.

Sunrise and sunset, another day has passed.

May seventeenth.

Wang Ge walked out of the straw shed and ran as soon as he came out.Of course, she wasn't the only one running.

After running back to the starting point, I saw that there were no candidates who had completed the competition ahead of schedule in the rest area.

Does she go into the bamboo shed or the wood shed?Time will not allow her to choose two, and then bambooware!Because there must be the most candidates entering the wooden shed at the beginning, and the good ones must have disappeared.

After entering, the first and second utensil shelves were empty.

The third utensil rack...Wang Ge hesitated a little, and it was a combination model: three-handed counting chip.Visually, there are at least 200 pieces in each hand.To choose or not to choose?The tools in the material are complete, including strip knives and round scrapers.

Three examinees rushed in at the entrance, she didn't have time to hesitate, and immediately took the mold into the material Shau Kei.This Shau Kei is quite large, with neatly arranged bamboo stalks inside.

in the afternoon.

Wang Ge's grades were better, so he chose another set of models, which were long arc-shaped utensils made of shaukei moso bamboo, which looked like a piece of armor.Each piece is three inches long and one inch wide, with holes pierced on both sides.

Both the molds in Shau Kei and the moso bamboo on the ground have undergone special treatment, which is stronger than the already hard moso bamboo.

This must be a bamboo-armed scorpion made for ordinary soldiers, or village soldiers.The Jin Dynasty has been full of waste, and the management of blacksmiths is extremely strict (no matter how rich the common people are, they are not allowed to operate blacksmiths), but ordinary soldiers and village soldiers are still unable to match iron-armed and copper-armed gongs. A substitute for bamboo armpit.

The tools are provided with bamboo knives, scrapers, sharp cones, files, gloves, and thick wooden boards, which are very complete.Wang Ge counted, and there were [-] pieces of molds in total.

"Huh..." Taking a deep breath habitually, she cheered herself up: Wang Ge, from now on, imagine yourself as if you are also on the battlefield, you are the craftsman in charge of logistics, and you are the logistics soldier!The soldiers on the front line are in urgent need of supplies and are waiting for you to step up production.You can't hold back, you can use the skills you learn in practice, and you are more proud of yourself than being able to make fine handicrafts!
Come on!Logistics soldier Wang Ge!
