Time Smuggling Starting from the Year 2000

Chapter 85 The Great Depression (4)

"Help me contact my mother." Huang Xuan slowly followed the new workers, and the strong smell of sweat and body odor was flying in the air. The sky is full of men's hormones. Like most factories during this period, newly recruited workers do not need to go through cumbersome procedures. The first thing they do is work, so that the boss has enough time to exploit.

Lorraine did not discuss the issue of energy loss this time. In fact, his judgment is limited to data such as loss.

The connection between the planes is slightly delayed. As the propagation medium of sound waves, pure energy fluctuations need to consume more energy. In order to avoid the situation of no number again, Lorraine tied the communication link with Huang Xuan's mobile phone. Layer conversion requires more energy.

After waiting for about two minutes, Zhang Xinyi's voice sounded sleepy: "Son, did you go out so early? Where are you?"

Judging from the energy screen given by Lorraine, it should be just 6 o'clock. Huang Xuan stuck out his tongue and said, "Mom, I'm out of Nanjing now. I have some problems and I want your help."

"Out of Nanjing?" Zhang Xinyi sat up all of a sudden, and woke up Huang Qunsheng next to her. She pulled the quilt and said, "How dare this Li Qing take you out at night?"

Huang Xuan carefully followed Thomas and the others, and said, "It has nothing to do with him, I came out secretly alone."

"What are you going to do?" Zhang Xinyi squeezed the microphone and said, "Where are you?"

That's the bad thing about talking to my mom, she always wants to figure things out first. Huang Xuan had no choice but to lie and said, "Yesterday was too late. I had something to do in the factory on the outskirts of the city. I went there. I didn't rush to come back after I finished it. That's why I called you."

"Be careful, I'll ask Li Qing to pick you up. This guy."

It seems that my mother is going to teach Manager Li a lesson, Huang Xuan said with a wry smile: "Mom, don't ask him to come here. I'll take care of some things by the way. I originally asked for your help. You are deliberately changing the subject."

After making sure her son was fine, Zhang Xinyi took the time to put on her coat and said, "Say, what do you want your mother to do?"

"Well, I want to find a few professional mechanical engineers. They must be quick to respond and skilled in business. They must be proficient in mechanical technology from the 1930s to the 1970s. They must also be able to draw pictures and prepare materials."

"This should be your father." Zhang Xinyi said, put the phone on speaker, and said, "You tell your father again."

Huang Xuan had no choice but to repeat it again. At this time, the group of people had already arrived at the workshop. He said anxiously: "My car is about to arrive, that's all, but I have to work full-time for a few days, and I must be professional. I will pay the salary, you can look for it , preferably this afternoon."

"What are you going to do?" Zhang Xinyi asked anxiously.

"I can't tell at the moment." Huang Xuan lowered his head and said, "Mom, after you help me find someone, ask them to prepare the materials, find an office, and then find a few computers connected to the Internet. I will send the request at any time." It will take about a week to hand over the drawings and drawings to me after they are finished, is $1 million enough?"

"Waste." Zhang Xinyi laughed and said, "Okay, I'll just pay the money. I'll ask the secretary and let your dad help you find some old professors, but you have to be more polite and don't talk about money. We'll make arrangements for you."

"Thank you, Mom." Huang Xuan happily blew a kiss.

While speaking, Huang Xuan had already walked into a newly built small factory. Rouge was the largest factory in the world. New factories were being built here almost every day. Even the Great Depression could not stop Henry Ford's desire to expand.

There is no deafening mechanical sound in the workshop, and the environment is much better than that of ordinary workers. Thomas brought people here, let go of his hands covering his eyes, and said: "You all follow Jens's order, and first give hands to the old workers. The hardworking guy is leaving, understand?"

With sparse replies, Huang Xuan looked around curiously. There were only a few lathes here. Some people were lying on the table in dirty overalls, or doing something near the lathes. Most of them were over the age of The young range, probably what kind of technicians.

Some large blueprints were thrown on the black cast iron table. Huang Xuan went over to look at them, but was slapped back, saying, "Apprentices can't look at these."

It was Jens who spoke, with a round beard in his 40s, his hair combed back in a mess, a big nose, and ears slightly turned back.

Huang Xuan left the table indifferently, turned around and said to Lorraine: "Go and see what those blueprints are, and compare more advanced technologies."

"How advanced it is."

"Within the 1950s." Huang Xuan avoided everyone's attention and said, "How can you export these blueprints?" It's a bit unrealistic to draw them directly. If the workload is bigger, Huang Xuan is a little worried about muscle soreness .

Lorraine didn't need to think about it, and said, "Is it okay to directly absorb the toner? As long as there is paper and toner, the output speed is about 30 seconds per square."

"That's ok." Huang Xuan returned to the "team" while speaking, and finally said: "Look at what Ford's newly researched car is, complete it, and then look for the technology they lack."

"Okay." For Lorraine, finding various technical information on p112 is very simple, and it is not difficult to find information on a certain plane, it's just a matter of how much energy is consumed. However, if you want to search for a certain aspect of information in a large area, especially in a large area not on the original plane, it will not only consume a lot of energy, but also be inefficient. After all, Lorraine's search is not just pressing Enter on the search engine, and different planes may require different search methods, so the cost will be high.

Huang Xuan now asked Lorraine to search only for p101, which is the information of the current plane. In this era of no data information, searching for information is still quite a waste of energy.

In the past day, the cost of energy has exceeded one million dollars, otherwise it can be said that time travel is a waste of money, Huang Xuan doesn't care, he is still immersed in the high returns of the previous few times.

"Come around." Jens yelled in what he thought was an ordinary voice, and the workers who had long been accustomed to him didn't even raise their heads.

Huang Xuan raised his feet and walked over. The environment of Rouge is excellent in this era, but the mess in the workshop is still there. The ground is full of iron filings and black from lubricating oil. Huang Xuan, who has never been to such a place Very, very uncomfortable.

"The three of you follow Keqi to draw, and he still needs to draw 50 parts drawings, which must be completed today." Huang Xuan was among the people Jens pointed to, and he walked over after seeing the other two. .

Keqi has two big eyes with deep sunken eye sockets. He looks like he lacks sleep and his husband and wife are at odds. He is disassembling and drawing a big guy into parts. The different parts are carefully placed on the table. Seeing the thick With a stack of blank papers, Huang Xuan suddenly felt how wrong it was to pretend to be recruiting.

Computers will not appear until 14 years later, and CAD-assisted drawing is even more out of the question. Things like copying are even more cloudy. Judging from Keqi's appearance, the parts he got may not be Ford's own production parts.

Huang Xuan took a deep breath and said, "Lorraine, it's all your job."

It must be believed that the limits of human beings can surprise the same kind.

The non-human Lorraine, combined with a foolish Huang Xuan, produced a limit that petrified the Americans present. At this speed, not to mention drawing a picture against the real thing, even copying a picture, it has reached the highest speed. In fact, the current speed Lorraine maintains does not depend on any thinking ability. It is entirely because of Huang Xuan's muscle endurance. After all, he has to draw pictures continuously. Considering the soreness of Huang's small arms, Lorraine thinks he has controlled the speed .

However, the speed of less than one part drawing in 10 minutes still made Keqi's thick lips thin. There was even more silence all around.

Even the workers who operated the machine tools noticed Huang Xuan. The shaking T-square and the pencil dancing in the air all proved that the Asian youth in front of him had abilities beyond their imagination.

Keqi looked at Huang Xuan's drawing of the parts twice, and there was not a single mistake. Under normal circumstances, such things rarely happen. Even for skilled workers, some problems will inevitably occur when drawing against the real thing. The three-view is to define the human line of sight as a parallel projection line, then look directly at the object, and draw the outline of the object seen by the orthographic projection method, which is slightly contrary to the normal consciousness of people, such as an ellipsoid, Its view is actually a rectangle. Therefore, when the part diagram becomes complicated, it is not surprising that some minor problems occur.

Huang Xuan squinted his eyes halfway. From everyone's point of view, this oriental man was acting a little unfathomable, but these gentlemen didn't know that this guy was just closing his eyes and resting his mind.

After being stunned for a while, Thomas shouted angrily, "Come on, everyone, hurry up."

Only then did the workers withdraw their curious eyes, leaving Huang Xuan to wave his arms alone.

Rocky stared at Huang Xuan with strange eyes, patted on the shoulder, and said, "You're not bad, kid."

"That's right." Huang Xuan chuckled, but his arms were not affected in any way. If there were such things as TV in this era, it would be more perfect.

In just half a day, Huang Xuan used Lorraine to conquer the workers. In the afternoon, the story about three punches minus one punch and Thomas' violent beating spread throughout the workshop. It's a pity that in this era, it's not appropriate to use names like magical orientals, otherwise Huang Xuan would be the first to get this title.

The rouge factory area is Henry Ford's greatest dream. When he was in good health, this was his base camp, but after resigning from the post of chairman, his son Edsel Ford took office here. However, Henry still holds the greatest power. Normally, Edsel needs to ask Henry for instructions.

Of course, Edsel still had the greatest say in day-to-day affairs, and Ford was no longer physically fit for administration.

In the design of the A-type car, Edsel was responsible for the engine structure and other internal designs. Facts have proved that the A-type is a successful model. From the perspective of the new century, this is a cross between the Audi series and the Santana series. A hybrid - cheap, convenient, decent quality. Most industrial capitalists in the 1930s had technical backgrounds, just like the computer industry in the 1990s was mostly composed of technical streams. Edsel is also a capitalist who believes in mechanical power.

After lunch, Huang Xuan continued to draw. At this time, his work was completed. Taking advantage of no one's attention, he quietly drew a few sketches. One of them was the sketch of the Ford V8 engine, which mainly described its technical specifications , Originally this required hundreds of drawings to describe, but if it is just for people to understand, a simple drawing can also explain it clearly.

The second one is a classic model - the world's first front-wheel drive car, Citroen ta front drive, this 1934 model successfully combined front-wheel drive, chassis-less vehicle structure, through torsion bars Advanced technologies such as single-wheel shock absorbers and hydraulic brakes are integrated and mass-produced. And its biggest feature is its reliable performance, especially when chasing and escaping. This vehicle with obvious advantages is called a "robber car" because of its success.

For Huang Xuan, it doesn't matter what people use the ta front drive for, the important thing is whether someone likes it. Although this model is known as a new milestone in the history of automobiles after the Ford Model T, the research and manufacture of front-wheel drive in the United States has been stagnant until 1966, that is, 30 years later, the Austrian Front-wheel drive has only been used in cars such as Zmobile and Cadillac. While that's about its technology and productivity, it has to be considered that Americans might not really like it until they actually see a front-wheel-drive vehicle.

There are ready-made materials for these drawings on p112. Huang Xuan quickly finished drawing them and put them under a pile of drawings. At this moment, most of the workers' work has not been completed, so Huang Xuan has the opportunity to watch here for a while.

Although in the 1930s, the workers in the Ford factory did not implement the piecework system, but due to Huang Xuan's speed and the completion of tasks that far surpassed others, Keqi felt embarrassed to let him work again, so he simply let him hang around in the workshop.

During this period, the development of mechanical technology was about to reach its peak, and the progress of precision machinery was obvious to all. Rouge Factory even created a precedent for assembly line operations. Just in the bud, but also greatly increased productivity and reduced costs.

However, Huang Xuan's independent workshop can't see these things anymore. He can only listen to Lorraine's explanation while imagining what this 100,000-acre industrial base will look like. In China nearly a hundred years later, such a large The area is enough to cover several industrial parks.

Standing behind a worker and watching him use the machine tool, someone suddenly shouted: "The boss is here." Everyone on the scene immediately became busy.

Huang Xuan is quite good at disguising. The current state is very similar to the self-study at school. Someone shouted "The head teacher is here", and everyone naturally worked hard and studied for the rise of China. .

Edsel was neatly dressed, his eyes were sharp and decisive, his steps were firm and powerful, and he looked like a superior. However, Huang Xuan knew that in a few years, he would die in an accident, throwing the entire Ford into management chaos Among them, this is also a major reason why Ford lags behind GM and other groups today. In the world's largest war——World War II, Ford was facing daily losses due to its own business problems. This even once attracted Roosevelt's attention. Worries about Ford's operating conditions will affect the production of equipment.

As usual, Edsel first talked with several supervisors, then walked around the workshop, listened to what the workers had to say, and tried to solve or remember some problems. This typically takes 20 minutes, and once it's done, Ford can rest assured that he can continue on with the intensity of a presidential campaign.

However, when he walked near Huang Xuan, he pulled out the V8 engine diagram from the drawing, spread it on the table, and said to Edsel, "Mr. Ford, maybe you are interested in taking a look at these. "

Rocky glared at him with a bad face, and explained to the curious Edsel: "Uh, this is the apprentice we recruited today, and his drawings are pretty good."

Ford walked over with a smile. He wanted to ask Huang Xuan a few words, but after a glance, he forgot to speak.

Due to the hasty transition from Model T to Model A, Ford, which incurred huge losses, started to develop new models very early. At this time, V8 should have a certain foundation, but the engine diagram drawn by Huang Xuan is completely the last of V8. Even Edsel himself didn't know that the engine would be designed like this.

"You drew it?" The picture Huang Xuan took out was very simple, but although the sparrow was small, it had all five internal organs. Edsel, who had a technical background, had already seen the mystery of it, and spoke with a little hope.

"That's right, I have a complete drawing, and I guarantee it can be used."

"Where is it?" Edsel had completely lost interest in continuing to patrol.

Huang Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm going to sell it, are you interested?"

"Oh?" Edsel finally entered the state of a capitalist at this moment, while Huang Xuan took out his pen, and under Lorraine's operation, he made two more sketches.

This time, it is part of the shape design of the v8.

Edsel quickly put away his surprise at Huang Xuan's drawing speed, because in his opinion, the drawing in front of him could be turned into countless banknotes. It's almost a tailor-made car for Ford - of course, it was designed by Ford itself. He stared at Huang Xuan for a minute, but didn't find any panic, so he said, "Can we talk? Alone."

"Of course." Huang Xuan wanted to talk to Ford.

I have to say that this trip went quite smoothly. If Huang Xuan didn't have a little bit of luck, it would take a lot of trouble for Huang Xuan to meet Ford or some other big shot. In that case, within a limited time, he could There is too little to do. This is exactly the limitation that Lorraine said. Of course, selling technology is a profitable thing, but the time it takes is often too slow compared to selling materials directly. In the 21st century, it takes two years. It's rare, but for Huang Xuan, it is absolutely a race against time. .
