Reborn Great Nation Craftsman

Chapter 145 Zhang Junping's Viewpoint

No one expected that Zhang Junping would be so tough. The few people who had stood up to protest suddenly blushed as if they had eaten shit.

"You wait, if you dare to fire me, you wait for me..." Hu Yuan put down a sentence, turned around and greeted his brother who had just followed him, "Go, if you don't stay here, you will stay here." Grandpa..."

At some point, two of the four brothers who had just stood up with him retreated quietly.

"You..." Hu Yuan's face turned livid, as if he had just eaten shit and was raped by a dog again.

"Brother Hu, you know, my family has four younger brothers and sisters, and my mother alone makes money... I can't lose this job..." A tall, thin man explained in a low voice road.

"Brother Hu, I also have younger siblings to support..."

"Okay, okay! You are fine!" Hu Yuan left the furniture factory angrily after speaking, he was afraid that he would vomit blood if he didn't leave again.

It doesn't matter if you lose your job, but being betrayed by your brother makes Hu Yuan want to vomit blood.

A group of idiots, as long as everyone works together, there is no need to be afraid of Zhang Junping?At the very least, he was forced to pay overtime pay...the result...a bunch of idiots.

"Is there anyone else who wants to leave? If you want to leave, hurry up. If you don't, go home tonight and tell me that starting tomorrow night, I will work overtime for two hours every night." Zhang Junping didn't care about Hu Yuan's threat at all, and bit him The dogs that do not bark, but those that bark happily are often pugs.

There is a kind of dog in Beijing called Jingba. This kind of dog has long lost teeth and can only bark, so it is liked by women and children.

After the training, Zhang Junping called Master Du, Zhao Jiazhu, Qian Manfu, Zheng Fugui and others to the studio.

"Master Du, your elders are all old masters, and you have brought out many apprentices. You can't say that your original way of raising apprentices is wrong. After all, you have been leading apprentices like this for thousands of years, but now that the times are developing, you It turns out that the way of leading apprentices has to be changed.

Society is developing rapidly, and our furniture factories are also developing rapidly. Every day, a large number of orders far exceed our production capacity, so we need more carpenters, and we need to speed up the training of carpenter apprentices to cope with new orders. "

"Director Zhang, this..."

"I know, it's a bit difficult for the masters, but time waits for no one. The country is reforming and opening up, and the economy is developing rapidly. Let's not talk about catching up with Europe and the United States. We only talk about the development of new Chinese-style furniture, so that traditional carpentry skills can be used here. In order not to be eliminated in the field of change, and continue to bloom with vitality, why? It will definitely not work step by step.”

"Director Zhang, just tell us what we need to do!"

"It's actually very simple. In the past, we studied art. In the old society, we paid attention to three years of learning art and two years of service. In the new China, although we don't pay attention to three years of art learning and two years of service, it is inevitable that we have to test it and let the apprentice do it. Do some chores to sharpen your mind.

Now we can directly skip the test step, and start directly by teaching them how to use tools, understand wood properties, and learn how to make mortise and tenon structures. "

"Director Zhang doesn't test his character, in case in the future..." Zhao Jiazhu was a little worried.

Zhang Junping understands Zhao Jiazhu's concerns. What if the apprentices who have been taught, after learning carpentry, stop working in the furniture factory and go to other furniture factories or work alone?
This can’t be stopped, you’ve been tested for ten years, and those who should go will still go, just look at things like this.

Zhang Junping smiled indifferently, "Hehe, you are preaching that the white-eyed wolf will go out and compete with us for business in the future, right?

It's okay, we're not saying that we don't test our xinxing at all, we teach and test at the same time, in three months, we can almost see the general idea.

So what if the white-eyed wolf is taught in the end?
As long as he learns the craft of carpentry, it doesn't matter even if he stops working with me in the future and goes out to do it himself and compete with me for business.

What I want is the prosperity of the entire traditional furniture industry, not my family.

A lone branch is not spring, a hundred flowers bloom in spring and the garden is full.

Therefore, no matter whether he goes out to do it alone or competes with me for business, as long as he accepts our training and accepts the idea of ​​new Chinese furniture, then everything he will do in the future will contribute to the prosperity of traditional furniture craftsmanship.

The furniture market is so big that even a thousand furniture factories of my size would not be able to eat it all. "

"Director Zhang, your kindness is really admirable."

"You really deserve to be the apprentice of the Young Master's family. The Young Master's family also said similar things back then."

"That's right, the young master said back then that there is a lot of food in the furniture, and he can't eat it alone. If there are more people rushing to eat together, it will taste better."

"Master Du, you old fellows, work hard!" Zhang Junping clasped his fists at Master Du and said hard work, ending the conversation.

After sending Master Du and the others away, Zhang Junping plunged into the warehouse and found an elm grand master's chair from the Qing Dynasty.

One leg of this elm Taishi chair was broken, and only half of the backboard was left.

The difficulty of restoration is not too great, the difficulty is to find the right wood and keep the original taste of the Taishi chair after restoration.

After checking it once, Zhang Junping came to the place where the leftovers of furniture were stored.

For more than a week, Du Meili has classified all the furniture fragments.

There are two major categories of furniture in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and then they are further subdivided according to the different materials of furniture.

There is a sign in front of each pile of furniture fragments, which says the material and age.

Elm furniture is very popular among folks in the north. The representative furniture of Luzuo furniture is elm furniture, which has a large stock. In the past, basically any landlord or wealthy businessman could find a pile of elm furniture in the home, even in the homes of ordinary people. You can also find a few pieces of elm furniture.

Therefore, the pile of elm furniture fragments in the warehouse is several times larger than the pile of furniture fragments of other materials.

Zhang Junping quickly found a suitable remnant.

Once replacement parts are found, the next job is much easier.

This is a bit like a surgical operation, first matching, looking for furniture parts with the same material, similar or similar decoration.

After finding the parts, according to the size of the parts, or modify the size of the parts, or adjust the size of the furniture, so that the size of the parts and the size of the furniture become uniform.

Disassemble the furniture, replace and assemble the revised furniture parts to the furniture, and then assemble the whole furniture.

Polish and polish it a little bit, and then burn the wax again, and you're done.

Such a simple repair gave Zhang Junping a sense of accomplishment.

Putting down the restored Qing Dynasty elm Taishi chair, Zhang Junping is going to make a more difficult one.

Just move out a couch with big red Siamese rosewood Arhat in the late Qing Dynasty.

This crimson sour branch Arhat couch is widely made furniture, with a marble backboard inlaid with fan branch patterns.

The back of the Arhat couch is inlaid with three pieces of round marble.

At this time, the three pieces of marble had already been broken, leaving only some marble fragments still inlaid on the back panel of the Luohan couch.
