After the dispersion of the dynasty, Qin Huaidao came to Ganlu Hall alone. He had two things to do today.
One is a drawing of something that Han Qi proposed that can attract the needs of the people, and the other is to create an enhanced version of the existing thirty consecutive crossbows to deal with future crises.
He has already thought about what the people need in the court. It is summer now, the sultry season. If the fan is introduced to the people, it will definitely be very popular. As for making it, it is not too difficult. It only requires a few touches on the design.
Just change it.
He first drew and marked the specifications and materials of the fan blades. For a big man, the best fan blades are made of wood or bamboo, which are light and easy to move and cool when blown.
After drawing the fan blades, the core part is the transmission shaft of the entire fan. If wooden is used, not only will the resistance be too high, but it will also easily produce noise after being used for a long time, so it still needs to be made of iron or steel and coated with tung oil. This part is also difficult to design.
It's not too difficult, the difficult part is the choice of power.
In the future world he once lived in, the fan generated kinetic energy through electricity, and then used a motor to drive the fan blades to rotate. Currently, he can build a steam engine, but there is no way to manufacture a motor yet.
After much thought, Qin Huaidao took two approaches. One was a cheap version of the fan, which was driven by a manual hand. When blowing was needed, it could be cranked by hand. It was more powerful and cooler than an ordinary fan.
One is gravity transmission. You only need to add an extra water wheel runner at the transmission shaft, and then use a wooden frame to install a large funnel-type basin above it. Pour the water into the basin, and the water will continue to leak through the small holes.
The water wheel runner drives the entire fan to rotate. Each basin of water can last for about half a quarter of an hour. There is another basin below for water recycling. Pour the water every quarter and a half to get a steady stream of water.
Constant wind.
It seems that it is not troublesome to manufacture in this way, and it is enough time to deal with the imminent Yellow River floods.
As for the enhanced version of the Thirty Repeater Crossbow, he also has some ideas.
The existing arrow crossbows are designed to deal with more enemies, both in terms of range and strength. Therefore, he widened the crossbow path on the original crossbow, added a crossbow path component, and added a type of crossbow with arrows.
Arrows with gunpowder, these arrows are suitable for widened crossbow channels. Although some accuracy is lost, longer ranges can be achieved through gunpowder.
Of course, if you need precise shooting, you can put the added crossbow channel components into the widened crossbow channel to get the original fine crossbow channel and achieve accurate shooting.
Both of these items require a lot of manual labor to produce.
After the blueprints were designed, Qin Huaidao rushed to Daye City in person without stopping. Since Daye City was renamed, more and more people and craftsmen came here because of its name. Coupled with the reputation of Momen, it also attracted a large number of manpower.
Dongcheng Jia Youcai has suspended cement production, so now there are enough manpower in Daye City to produce utensils to deal with the Yellow River floods.
Seeing Qin Huaidao coming in a hurry, Jia Youcai looked happy.
"Your Majesty, what day is it today? I can still see you. Come with me quickly. I want to show you something."
Qin Huaidao, who was originally sending the drawings, was a little confused: "What are you looking at? Uncle Jia has something serious to do, why don't you slow down first?"
"Can't wait."
After just a few words of conversation, Qin Huaidao was dragged to Nancheng by Jia Youcai. This is where Momen currently lives. Concrete houses stand neatly in Nancheng. After the cement houses, there are various production facilities built by the disciples of Momen.
From one side of the building, there was constant sound of forging iron, while there was a fire smelting steel, making everyone sweat.
Not far away, I saw an extremely shocking roar.
I saw a giant steel beast, turning wheels made of steel and wrapped in bamboo below, driving on the cement road in Nancheng. The steam generated by the steam engine brought thick white smoke, which did not affect the excitement of the Momen disciples at all.
"Success, we succeeded!"
The person doing the test drive was Mo Ke, who had taken Han Qi back to Momen to break through the barrier. He was extremely excited: "You are right, this big iron horse can actually move. It's amazing. This is simply unprecedented in all dynasties."
Miracles that happened!”
The eyes of the Momen disciples standing on both sides were filled with irrepressible excitement and infinite desire for the future.
Even the giant Mo Zai, who personally led the people to build it, repeatedly exclaimed: "It's incredible, it's simply incredible. It's possible to make such an artifact. So what if I, Mo Zai, die today?"
General Mo Yin, who was known as a genius, saw that this thing had no problem at all, so he drove Mo Ke off, quickly caught up with the steam tractor, and observed it in shock while maneuvering it: "Left, right,
The direction is so flexible? You don’t need to eat refined grass?”
To them, that pile of strange black rocks is nothing of value.
In this era, food and grass are always the most valuable.
Now this iron horse not only does not consume food and grass, but can also run with only a pile of black stones. How can we not make him happy?
They knew in their hearts that this thing was made by His Majesty, and they admired the Han Emperor even more.
At this moment, whether it was due to loose parts or improper control by Elder Yin, the steam tractor suddenly broke away from the cement road and accelerated towards the cement house on the side.
"Oops, something happened!"
Mo Ke was shocked and hurriedly chased the out-of-control tractor, but he could never catch up. He could only watch as the steam tractor hit the wall and its parts were scattered all over the floor. Elder Yin was also thrown off by the impact and fell.
Chew mud.
Everyone was shocked. At this time, Mo Ke had arrived at Elder Yin's side: "Elder Yin, are you okay?"
Everyone looked nervously at Elder Yin who was lying motionless on the ground. After a while, Elder Yin slowly got up from the ground with the help of Mo Ke.
"Don't worry, I'm wearing a recently invented anti-fall suit. I used a few pieces of paper to sandwich straw in it. It can reduce pain and injuries when I fall. I've tested it myself and it's effective. You can buy it once it's produced.
."
Everyone: "???"
At this time, we still want to talk about his ridiculous invention. Who doesn’t know that the thing invented by Elder Yin has obvious advantages and obvious disadvantages?
Seeing that everyone didn't respond much, Elder Yin felt a little ashamed: "Well, this thing does have some shortcomings. It makes you breathless when wearing it in summer, and it feels like it's going to catch fire."
The great man Mo Zai felt at ease when he saw that Elder Yin was fine.
Then he announced in front of everyone: "The third version of the steam tractor Momen, the fourth test, I announced it in the name of the giant, and it was a great success!"
"Long live!"
"Great, the big man is about to usher in a new level, and all this will begin with Momen!"
"The changes in history and the leap forward of the times will be opened by our Momen!"
