Chapter 892 It Is Said that the Flying Boat Can Leave the Ground
"That's what happened." Bi Gou found Li Yi and repeated Song Jing's words.
"Of course the gears made of pig iron can be used. They are good in terms of wear resistance, but they can't withstand high strength. The ones in Zhuangzi are made of steel."
Li Yi first admitted that there was no problem with the cast iron gears, but the quality was not very good unless they were replaced with ductile iron.
"In terms of the crankshaft application, the cast iron one is not good, but the manual pedaling is okay. With the cast iron half shaft, the overall torsion is too large, so it is not very good."
Li Yi introduced the structural characteristics of propeller boats and the material properties of pig iron.
We came to the conclusion that the pig iron ones can be used, but they are easy to break, and they can last for a while if they are pedaled with all their strength.
"If that's the case, why rent it out?" Bi asked, confused.
"When are we going to rent it out? I'm just going to test it to see if it works. The new blueprint for shifting gears has been handed over to the workshop.
After being produced in the workshop, the power and speed can be adjusted. For example, if the water flow is too fast during counterflow, the gear needs to be adjusted, otherwise it will not be able to withstand it. "
The principle Li Yi mentioned is the same as changing gears on a bicycle when going uphill. You can no longer use the big wheel in the front and the small wheel in the back.
"Not renting?" Bi Gou realized that everyone was worrying in vain.
"Those things are expensive. Whoever pulled the boat aboard and the things were dismantled, where can I find them? New propellers will be used by the army in the future, and Zhuangzi will also use them."
Li Yi told the truth that the things were too precious and not suitable for renting out for fear of losing them.
Bi Gou was relieved: "It can be mounted on a big ship, and more people will step on it."
"No, the material can't withstand the force. It's possible to spread out the propellers to build it, but it has its own weight.
Later, I will make a steam engine, drive it, and load coal on board to boil water.
Carry a seawater filtration device and go farther afield during a long voyage on the ocean. "
Li Yi has a full set of skills and is waiting for the ship. In recent years, the navy has been abandoned.
Even if it is not abandoned, the ocean-going ships must be larger and have sails.
Then build a steam engine ship as a flagship.
Ships could be abandoned on the road and money exchanged for the lives of sailors.
At that time, these sailors who went to America and came back alive will be valuable assets, allowing them to familiarize more people with the routes.
Mainly where the ocean currents are now more detailed and which islands have fresh water.
If there is really no fresh water on the island, bring drilling equipment and try it.
Li Yi told Bi Gou his idea. He had told it to Li Longji and Li Chengqi before, and they expressed full support.
"So, your thoughts are not on Tubo?" Bi Gou drew a conclusion from Li Yi's words.
"The fight against Tubo for several years was settled immediately, as well as the Turks.
The Turks were not as good as the Tubos. The Turks did not develop well internally and were fighting everywhere.
After fighting until now, what kind of foundation do you still have? With a sense of bravery, it requires skills but no skills, and no reserves.
Tubo has a completely slave-based social structure. It has breeding and planting technology, handicraft processing technology, and can produce its own weapons. "
Li Yi looked down on the Turks and did not take them seriously, but Tubo needed to fight for two years.
Now is the period of accumulating national strength. We must endure it for a while and then attack Europe.
"As long as the key technologies are not spread out, Lao Bi, we can conquer the world and no one can be our opponent."
Li Yi is confident that he can suppress Tianzhu and Dashi in the next ten years, and his own losses will be very small.
When Bi Gou heard about the technology, he pondered for a moment: "Xiao Yi, tell me the truth. Not counting the things you exchanged for your life, how powerful is your Zhuangzi now?"
“A generation of manual lathes have come out, converters have come out to make steel, and chemistry and physics are being taught to students.
Even if they go out to become officials, they still learn from me. I knew how to take the exam, but if I failed, I would have my job dismissed.
Biology is teaching nurses and they will gradually improve.
The production and slowly improving finishing of glass could provide basic optical instruments.
Sextants and theodolite can appear at any time. Several more theodolite will be produced this fall. They are used to measure terrain and are easier to use than the current method. "
Li Yi didn't directly answer how powerful he was, and he couldn't tell how many years ahead he was.
Anyway, the foundation has been laid. What is really great is not what was produced under his guidance, but what the students learned.
Especially farmers and craftsmen. The term craftsman sounds like a low-level existence.
In fact, Zhuangzi's craftsmen learned many things, and any craftsman would find them valuable.
You must have a theoretical foundation and a good craftsmanship. You are not allowed to go out alone in Zhuangzi on weekdays to avoid being arrested.
Bi Gou didn't understand. Anyway, he thought it was unusual. His understanding of technical aspects was limited.
"It's getting warmer. Bring me more chili sauce. It's so hot that I'll get irritated and have to eat through the water." Bi Gou changed the subject instantly.
"Wouldn't eating hot sauce cause internal heat?" Li Yi wanted to explain it from a medical perspective.
"Hurry up. When you kill the cow again, send me beef sauce. Don't send it to the political hall. Unless you prepare more, they will snatch my things."
Bi Gou didn't want to listen to the doctor, so he wanted to eat hot sauce.
"I have it now. Can I take it to your home, or should you take it with you?" Zhuangzi got a new dead cow yesterday.
When plowing the land, he suddenly wanted to hit his master. Fortunately, he had a plow. The master ran away, so he found someone to kill the cow and send it to the Li family village.
Li Yi tested it and found that it was fine and can be eaten.
As for why the cow butts its owner, that's not something he needs to consider.
It may be that the owner is too harsh on the cow, or it may be that the cow is depressed. No matter which case, the cow must die.
At that time, he and his wife bought cattle to raise and work on.
When it was time to sell the cow, it went to the ground.
There was also a single person who wanted to sell a cow, but the price was not agreed upon, and he took the cow home with him, only to be gored by the cow.
Maybe he felt that if his master wanted to sell him, he would be killed.
Li Yi didn't know what state he was in. He was not a bull.
The cattle on Zhuangzi are all very good. When working, the cattle must be hitched to the plow. The cows stand waiting while they are hitched and start plowing.
After plowing the land, the cows should be bathed, and the cows should stand and enjoy themselves, and then eat.
I have never lost my temper and get along well with others.
Bi Gou heard about what happened, but did not express his opinion. He left with the beef hot sauce and planned to go home to eat noodles in the evening. He wanted wide noodles and water-cooked noodles.
Before night, word spread about Lijiazhuangzi's new boat that could fly on the water.
At the end of the story, Li Jia Zhuangzi's boat encountered a shore obstruction, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net flew for a while from the land, and then returned to the water.
This is relatively restrained, otherwise it would be heard that he was flying into the sky, flying higher and higher, towards the sun.
In the evening, Li Longji's family of three arrived and brought a freshly killed cow.
He knew that Li Yi was unwilling to kill working animals and was soft-hearted and timid, so he arranged for people to kill them without doing anything himself.
In fact, this cow is not a working cow, but is specially raised to feed the royal family.
It is fatter than a working cow, so it may cause problems when used for working.
Generally speaking, the work of raising cattle must be taught from an early age, otherwise the cattle will not understand.
It is best to have the big cow work, watch the small cow, grow up in a working environment, and then let it plow the land, it will cooperate better.
"Brother Yi, the boat trip to Hukou Falls has started, and it's a great success." Li Longji came specifically to announce the good news.
