Chapter 69 Unpowered Glider
After Qin Shou took all the tobacco skins, he ran around non-stop. The first thing to solve was to plant tobacco leaves. As for how to plant them, Qin Shou did not have this knowledge. It was just a headache for Yang Hui, who gave it to him. Qin Shou did not know how to cultivate this knowledge, and smoking was OK.
No matter what, I will wait for it to sprout first. As for where to plant it in the future, the 100-acre farmland will not be empty, so I can only find a place to plant something in the future. Cotton must not be moved out of the farmland. The entangled land makes Qin Shou feel very annoying.
After Yang Hui's explanation, Qin Shou ran to the Ministry of Works Research Institute again, leaving Yang Hui confused. He didn't know that Qin Shou was doing something again, so he gave him some inexplicable seeds again and again. This time, it was true that the so-called tobacco seeds that he had never heard of.
Qin Shou and Tong Xue came back on two bicycles, one for Mr. Qin, and one for Mr. Qin, and of course for his younger sister Qin Qing to play. After sending Tong Xue to play with Xiao Qin Qing, Qin Shou ran to the side of Blacksmith Duan again, and never stopped busy.
As for finding Duan Blacksmith Qin Shou's goal is very simple, that is, to make an iron box for flue-cured tobacco. It is really a waste if you don't bake these tobacco skins. They have never been drying them any more. Some of them are almost moldy and mutating from the smell. Waste is shameful for half a year. It's not long or short. It's good to satisfy your cravings.
When Qin Shou handed over the iron box forging, Duan Blacksmith looked at Qin Shou with a blank look on his face and said in a daze: "Young Master, why are you doing these strange iron boxes? I can't tell what this is? Young Master, what is the specific use of this iron box?"
To be honest, Duan Blacksmith is very busy now. He is rushing to make steel every day. The molten iron is also making steel. A series of steps are extremely complicated and careless. He is very tired of supervision and supervision. Now Qin Shou has made some things out again.
Qin Shou threw the drawing in his hand to Blacksmith Duan. He patted his strong shoulder with one hand and said solemnly: "Don't worry about Blacksmith Duan, do it according to my instructions. Even though it's done, I'm using it urgently, remember it. The faster the better!"
After Qin Shou finished speaking, he immediately left, leaving behind the extremely puzzled Blacksmith Duan. Qin Shou was so unkind. He knew that he had so many things to do when he was at the busiest time. Blacksmith Duan shook his head helplessly, picked up the drawings and started working. The young master said he would do it if he wanted to do it!
After all this, Qin Shou ordered someone to take the drawings to the old man in the parts. Of course, it was the old man Lin Jianlin, the chief jewelry craftsman. Who said his name was as close to each other as the parts? Qin Shou sent someone to send the drawings of the cigarette guns over. It would be nice to create some golden cigarette guns to be cute.
Yan Liben also rushed to the Ministry of Works Research Institute as scheduled. When Qin Shou went to pick up the bicycle, he saw him and Wang Blacksmith discussing the basic seals of the characters. He first carved out the character's avatar model, and then made out the model after irrigation of the iron. It was a bit complicated and troubled to them and slowly had a headache.
After all, Qin Shou raised his sleeves and started making a glider. There was nothing we could do. If it was not made, it would be difficult to trap the upcoming chemistry experts. These guys were all stubborn and ascended in the daytime. I realized their unsatisfactory dream. The sky was blue and there was nothing!
Qin Shou, who ran outside the blacksmith's house, was searching for steel bars. After searching for it, there was no suitable material. The smallest steel bars were all the thicker than their thumbs. If the skeletons were made with these, it would be extremely deadly. It was too heavy. Not to mention flying, it would be exhausted if you were tired of running on your back.
The discouraged Qin Shou simply made a genuine non-powered glider with the wheels, and the horses were pulled and rushed to fly with the help of power. After confirming the safety of the first test flight suicide squad, it would be better to play by yourself. At worst, the whole simple parachute could be parachute-diving immediately if something happened.
Qin Shou's personality is that he is going to do it. Without saying a word, he immediately grabbed Zhang Changgong who was preparing to go out to work and asked him to make three propellers and the fuselage. He had to take care of them all. Zhang Changgong looked at Qin Shou stupidly until Qin Shou spoke repeatedly and woke up.
Zhang Changgong looked stunning and swallowed in disbelief, and asked, "Ha? Master, what is this machine? Uh... Okay, Master, after you say that, this project is not small, but Zhang has no one to help, and all his subordinates have gone to decorate!"
Zhang Changgong had no choice. It was difficult to help Qin Shou without manpower. Moreover, all the carpenters and workers under him went to decorate the two houses in Lifang. They couldn’t transfer people for no reason, right? It was a serious shortage of manpower for rushing to work and waiting for the deadline.
Moreover, what machine Qin Shou told me to slide made Zhang Changgong wonder. The five-meter-long thing was not so made, and it was something that was kicked out tomorrow. How did he make it alone? He also didn’t even have drawings, and he didn’t know how to slap it?
Qin Shou touched his chin with one hand and said, "Well, it's true that I am not considering it. Otherwise, Foreman Zhang, you can clear out the worst wood immediately and saw some wooden boards out. Well, don't ask so much. This young master is asking Guangzong Yaozu and the others to come back to help!"
As for the glider, Qin Shou thought about it, he still took out a real wooden glider. For safety reasons, he would just jump with a parachute on his back. As for whether he could fly, he would make it first. Anyway, he would just fly far, and it was not made of light special aviation materials.
"Oh, young master, then Zhang will find the worst wood first!" Zhang Changgong nodded and answered Qin Shou, and immediately turned around to do business after he said that. According to Qin Shou's words, this glider and other projects are not small. He doesn't know what it is for, but he will do it anyway.
After Qin Shou nodded and sent Zhang Changgong away, he immediately became busy. He first sent someone to call Guangzong Yaozu and the other four to come back, and then went back to the study to draw a simple glider model. He just wanted to make it while exploring it. Anyway, he had ideas. Not afraid of hardship or fatigue is the determination to overcome difficulties.
An hour later, six figures next to Qin Shou's villa were busy sawing wood. Zhang Changgong was holding saws and neat wooden boards. A security soldier from the Ministry of Works Research Institute came over with three wheel baskets, two of which were 24-inch buffalo models, and one was a 12-inch wheel basket for a doll. After the security soldier was placed on the ground, he flashed.
With the help of Guangzong Yaozu, Qin Shou personally took the hammer head and long nails to assemble the wood. The wood in the cabin skeleton was made of hard solid wood. Each piece of wood was washed out with fine tools. Each baby's arm was as thick as that, and he picked up the long iron nail and used the iron nail to be firmly secured.
The skeleton of the cabin is basically not very particular. It is a rectangular cabin, one, a half meter long and a half meter wide and a half meter high. Then three pieces of wood are reinforced under the rectangle, and iron nails are used to hit both sides to make it solid. The land of this flying thing must be stable, otherwise the glider will fly up and the person will fall down.
The cabin is the main part of the glider, and it is also considered a control center. The wings are connected on both sides. The tail is connected to the rear wing part, and the tail must be connected with two meters of wood. Qin Shou doesn't know what it means to fly.
Qin Shou looked at it and nodded and said with satisfaction: "Okay. Foreman Zhang, install the two pieces of wood together. Xiao Guangguang, Xiao Zongzong, you two help me with the help. Xiao Yaoyao, you can help Foreman Zhang each side. Hold the wood, Xiao Zuzu, come with a wooden board, hammer and nails!"
When Zhang Changgong and Qin Zu heard this, they immediately picked up the two-meter-long wooden frame. In fact, they added wood to both sides as skeletons, and then added wooden boards. Don’t underestimate the wood function of these two wings. When the main wings encounter turbulence, they can tilt upward slightly, which can reduce the tendency of shaking left and right, so as to avoid unbalanced accidents flying in the sky.
In addition to adjusting the turbulent imbalance of the fuselage, the propeller must also be fixed, right? This technology was long been played by foreign countries during World War II. As long as there is enough power to drive the propellers on both sides, it can produce environmentally friendly and energy-saving short-distance flights. Qin Shou does not need to fly too far, and it is fake to fly long distances without an engine.
In order to strengthen the two wings, Qin Shou has tried every means. He used all the triangular wooden blocks and iron nails. The purpose is to be stable. The whole glider is made at least 1 or 200 kilograms. In addition, a person weighs at least 300 kilograms. Flying in the air and other things are unstable. The main wings on both sides are too big.
Zhang Changgong followed Qin Shou humbly to learn. This was the first time he saw the glider in front of him, and it was the first time he realized that it was possible to do this in the world. As long as Qin Shou needed iron nails or something, he immediately handed it over to Qin Shou.
Qin Shou stopped and held the hammer in one hand and said, "Foreman Zhang, don't wander around. This thing is only made once, and it's OK to play with it. It's not mass-produced or anything. There's nothing to learn about. Go and make a propeller, do it according to the drawings, drill a hole in the middle, and install a bearing, go!"
"Oh! Good young master!" Zhang Changgong heard this and looked sad. He held his eyes and Qin Shou was holding his eyes. He shook his head and sighed and felt a little regretful. He picked up the propeller drawn by Qin Shou, and Zhang Changgong couldn't help but wonder why these two wood-like propellers are so strange?
Zhang Changgong scratched his head in a daze, walked to Qin Shou with the drawings and said, "Young Master, this snail is made of oars, why are there only sticks on both sides? Why does Zhang look a bit like leaves? But it is round in the middle. What's the use of this specifically?"
Qin Shou was discouraged by Zhang Changgong's words, "What stick? These are the two blades of the propeller. They play a role in helping fly when rotated. Forget it and don't understand. Just follow the above. Remember to make the arc. Where can I get the help if I don't have the arc without the wind? Do as you do!"
When Zhang Changgong was puzzled and turned to make, Qin Shou stopped him and said, "Wait, I forgot to tell you that the propellers on both sides should be about six feet long, and the main propellers are 1 meter long. Remember? Those wooden boards have been reinforced to this young master, and the things that are running at high speed, Xiao Guangguang, Xiao Zongzong, you two go to help!"
"Yes, young master!" Qin Guang and Qin Zong took the order to help Zhang Changgong. The main wings on both sides were fixed and the gravity was balanced, so there was no need for anyone to support them. Qin Shou is now mainly to fix the propeller of the source of power, and these things are no joke.
Propellers should not be made of iron. After all, they are good. Unfortunately, blacksmiths don’t have time to snatch these propellers. Even if they use time, Qin Shou dares not use anything. It is too heavy and not suitable. Without the engine to run at high speed, it can’t drive so many propellers that are heavy.
What's more, the main beam of the wing is made of wood. If it is too heavy and high-speed operation, it is easy to cause damage and fire. In the primitive era, the principle of drilling wood to make fire is to be made. As for the main beams on both sides of the wing, they also need to dig holes to plug the bearings into it, otherwise the same is true. Drilling wood to make fire!
Qin Shou thought of the wind and observation during flight, and immediately ordered Qin Yao and said, "Xiao Yaoyao, go to the place next door to produce glass. Ask those guys to start a pair of windshields, ask them to come and measure the size and forge some thickness of glass, and go ahead and get some flying eyes and other things!"
"Yes! Young Master!" Qin Yao nodded and ran to the next glass production site. The work was now suspended. The Western Regions workers all lived there. If there was something or needed to produce glass, they would jump out immediately with a shout. Qin Shou was not short of money or anything, and he would support these technicians with high salaries.
The rest is to strengthen the tail of the glider. Qin Zu held a two-meter-long piece of wood and placed it in the ideal position under the measurement of a one-meter iron ruler made by Qin Shou. The bracket at the tail must also measure the horizontal plane, otherwise it would be a little troublesome to fly into the sky.
When Qin Shou was just nailing the tail tightly connected, the little lolita Tao Yue and Wang Xinyi walked to Qin Shou with tobacco. The little lolita Tao Yue said frustratedly: "Young Master, how do you bake your tobacco or something? Blacksmith Duan has already made a baking oven or something."
Qin Shou threw the hammer in his hand to the ground, wiped his face with sweat, and looked at the two beauties holding tobacco leaves in their hands. He said blankly: "Hmm? Xiaoyue is you? You said the oven is ready? Why is it so fast? Could this guy cut corners and deals with it casually, right?"
The little lolita Tao Yue said with an expression of defeat by Qin Shou: "Ah? No? Young Master, what's the time to go? It's already time to go, lunch time has passed. You are so good, you've become an immortal! By the way, what are you doing, you're doing? Why are you so ugly?"
When Wang Xinyi heard the little lolita Tao Yue nagging, she felt speechless. Fortunately, Qin Shou was easy to talk. If it were someone else, I'm afraid the little lolita Tao Yue would have been beaten long ago. How could such an impolite young master who was serving him? Of course, Qin Shou, who is a classless person, would be like this.
Qin Shou couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard the little lolita Tao Yue's words, "Ugly? Go, what do you know? This is a good thing for flying in the sky. Don't underestimate it now. If you wear a layer of skin, it won't look like this. Hey, why are you nagging about a little girl? Hurry up and dry the tobacco leaves!"
The little lolita Tao Yue curled her lips and glared at the glider made by Qin Shou, saying without any hesitation: "Just go, go, what's the point? Hey, young master, how can you bake these tobacco leaves? It smells strange and smells strange. You can't throw them in and bake them like this, right?"
Qin Shou felt discouraged when he heard this, and wished he could knock the stupid little lolita Tao Yue with his fingers. He picked up a piece of tobacco leaf and explained: "Xiaoyue, are you trying to make people angry? Spread these tobacco leaves and put them in the oven, pay attention to the heat, and take them out when they turn golden leaves. Do you know? Go!"
Qin Shou held her sleeve tightly when Wang Xinyi passed by. Under Wang Xinyi's confusing gaze, Qin Shou said with a cautious expression: "Xinyi, Xiaoyue is sometimes careless when doing things. You have to take good care of it. Do you know? This is from the golden leaves. Xinyi, thank you for your hard work!"
Wang Xinyi shook her head and said with a smile: "Well, is it enough to just roast yellow leaves? Xinyi understands, don't worry, Master, Xinyi will pay attention to these things and will not let Xiaoyue ruin your tobacco leaves, Master, do you have any instructions?"
Qin Shou looked at Wang Xinyi with a serious face and said, "Yes, I will come to my young master's room at night. My young master's bed is big, soft and comfortable, and there is a warm quilt. Oh, what's the shame? Remember to come here at night, otherwise I will be angry!"
When Qin Shou said that his bed was big and soft, Wang Xinyi had already blushed and ran away with the tobacco leaves. As for whether she had heard what Qin Shou said, she didn't know. Thinking of Qin Shou's trick last time, Wang Xinyi's face was even redder than the red cloth.
When Qin Shou turned around, Qin Zu blushed and tried hard to hold back his smile. Qin Shou gritted his teeth and said, "Little Zuzu, why are you laughing? Are you looking for sucking? Work quickly and lift it up, what? If you ask you to lift it up, don't move, it will break it and you will be beaten to death!"
Qin Zu was so sad that he raised his face. It would be okay to lift it for a while. It would be fatal if he kept lifting it. Under Qin Shou's threatening gaze, Qin Zu lifted up the fuselage, which weighed about 100 pounds in shame, while Qin Shou began to assemble the wings behind it.
The tail wing can correct the deflection or left and right rotation during flight, which is also the stability of the glider's direction. Qin Shou used the double vertical tail type for this purpose, which can reduce the height of the vertical tail and reduce the rolling torque generated by the vertical tail when sliding sideways. At the same time, it can also improve the heading stability at large angles of attack. Safety is the first priority!
After all, we will install a simple rudder, which needs to control the up and down movement of the wings to twist the direction. Of course, it is not very obvious. After all, this is not like a bicycle. You can use your hand to swing the wheels or something. It depends entirely on wind resistance and the weak swing of the wings on both sides.
The rudder Qin Shou uses foot pedals to control it. As long as the driver presses the left foot pedal, the rudder swings to the left, the machine head turns left, the right foot pedal, and the rudder swings to the right, and the machine head turns right, which is simple and convenient, without having to do anything complicated and hard to remember.
Just manipulating the rudder can only change the position of the glider, and cannot make the glider turn. The glider has a strong linear flight inertia. Newton's first law is not a scam. Turning the rudder will cause lateral gliding, which is achieved entirely by wind resistance. In addition, the propeller power source can be accelerated a little.
Chapter completed!
