Section 111 Horse-drawn carriage
It turns out that no link in industrial production is superfluous, and even considering the cost issue, some unnecessarily necessary steps have been omitted.
The iron quality itself is relatively poor, and secondly, it has not been quenched or surface hardened. Such balls cannot withstand such huge pressure at all.
When the blacksmith took the ball bearing apart again, he realized that his carefully polished iron bead had been severely deformed during the ride, and it was kneaded into a strange shape like dough. Some of them had even been embedded between other balls and stuck it...
"This..." The blacksmith looked at his completely unformed ball with a confused look on his face, not knowing what expression to do.
Duke Yasukuni directly picked up the deformed ball wrapped in grease from the blacksmith, and did not bother to be dirty, so he put it in the palm of his hand and played with it carefully.
"Dude..." The blacksmith looked at him anxiously.
"It's okay." Duke Jingguo looked up at him, picked up a ball produced by Xiao Heng and others and looked at it, and suddenly threw it to the blacksmith and said, "Blast it for me."
"Smash?" The blacksmith was stunned.
"Smash." Duke Yasukuni nodded.
"...Okay." The blacksmith found a hammer, placed the ball on the anvil, picked up the hammer and smashed it carefully.
"Dangdang...dangdang..."
The sound of hammers, but the balls remained unmoved. I don’t know how many times they smashed, but the balls remained perfectly round and had no deformation.
"This..." The blacksmith turned around and looked at Duke Jingguo.
Seeing the intact balls on the anvil, the Duke frowned unaware of it: "Smash it hard! Smash it flat!"
"good!"
The blacksmith spitted on his hands, rubbed his hands hard, and picked up the hammer and smashed it hard...
"clang!!"
With a loud bang, a spark flashed between the hammer and the anvil... When he looked at it again, he had no idea where the ball had flew away.
"Change another one and continue to smash it until you can see the bad." Duke Yasukuni stood aside and his expression became serious.
"yes."
The blacksmith made another ball, and this time he found a wooden strip to clamp it, and then knocked it down hard.
"clang!"
"clang!!"
"clang--"
The blacksmith's hammer was as heavy as a hammer. As the continuous heavy hits hit, the ball finally had a trace of deformation visible to the naked eye - one side of it was slightly flattened, but when the blacksmith picked it up, she was shocked to find that there was a white spot on the anvil!! After careful touching, it was slightly sunken!!
Duke Jingguo pushed away the blacksmith and came to the anvil to observe carefully... and then took the slightly flattened ball in his hand and looked at it.
"What's going on?" Duke Yasukuni asked, getting up.
"This... the villain doesn't know..." When the blacksmith saw Duke Jingguo's eyes were a little fierce, he was so scared that he knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly. "The villain has been slapping iron for half his life, and has never seen such an evil thing! I think this thing is not an ordinary thing, maybe it is caused by the iron from the sky..."
"Iron from outside the sky!? Nothing! If you have a meteor from outside the sky, you will make this bead?" Duke Yasukuni said angrily.
"The villain doesn't know, the villain doesn't know..." The blacksmith was so scared that she could not say anything else except saying begging for mercy.
"...You melt the iron bead and give me a dagger." Duke Yasukuni thought about it and tried it first... What's the iron thing that is really special?
"Yes, yes, yes..." The blacksmith quickly got up, quickly removed all the balls, put them in the furnace to heat them, and finally made them into a thin iron bar...
As the small dagger... no, it should be said that the letter-demolition knife gradually took shape under the hammer, the blacksmith's expression also became puzzled.
After the ball-making letter knife was completed, the blacksmith presented it with both hands.
"This... doesn't seem to be anything special?" Duke Yasukuni reached out to try the sharp blade. Since the blade had not been opened, the letter-destroying knife was not sharp, and he could only feel the cold iron.
"Come on, smash it with it." Duke Yasukuni ordered.
"This... is." The blacksmith looked at the Duke, gritted his teeth and took the letter-breaking knife, rushed its blade up and placed it on the anvil, and then swung the hammer and smashed it down.
"Dangdang..."
The letter-destruction knife made of balls is deformed under the hammer!
It just means it has deformed even if it is not light or heavy!
Duke Yasukuni touched its obviously dull blade, raised his head and looked at the blacksmith without saying a word.
"Mr. Master! You saw it with your own eyes! I didn't mess with it! I didn't hide it privately! I didn't change the iron material..." The blacksmith was frightened and knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Get up and talk... I know it has nothing to do with you." The Duke of the State touched the beard on his chin and said to himself, "This is really amazing... Could it be that this iron was used to have been imposed with the immortal method..."
"The magic of immortals... the villain has heard of it." In order to put aside the relationship, the blacksmith quickly reported the report.
"Oh? Let's hear it." Duke Yasukuni became interested.
"I heard that the White Lotus Sect is making trouble in the city recently, saying that there are stars coming down to the earth or something..." The blacksmith carefully observed Duke Jingguo's face, and then continued to say, "... I heard recently that the White Lotus Sect's star is fake, and was exposed by the real Star Constellation on the spot, and invited the divine thunder to kill the demons of the White Lotus Sect."
"Oh? There is something wrong?" Duke Yasukuni said curiously.
"I don't know whether it is true or false villain, but the White Lotus Sect outside the city has indeed disbanded... This matter is absolutely true." The blacksmith said hurriedly.
"I know this. I heard that the people from the White Lotus Sect suddenly disappeared. I thought they were going to make people panic... I didn't expect that there was such a reason." Duke Yasukuni muttered to himself, and the blacksmith finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What do you mean... this iron bead has also been used to impart immortal skills?" The Duke asked, weighing the letter-demolition knife in his hand.
"This... the villain doesn't know, the villain just said casually." The blacksmith honestly explained.
"Well, I understand. You go down..." Duke Jingguo thought.
"Sir Xie."
The blacksmith bowed and left, but before he could leave, he heard Yasukuni say justice: "Wait!"
The blacksmith was so scared that he almost pissed his pants, but he heard Yasukuni say justice: "Come here, send the things back to him... and give him a reward of ten taels of silver."
"You go..."
"Thank you for your kindness." The blacksmith was finally able to leave this place of right and wrong and suddenly felt relaxed.
Duke Yasukuni thought about it and continued, "...I will send someone to find you in two days."
"Plop."
The blacksmith fell to the ground, stood up, and saluted the prince again and then ran away... Today's experience must be unforgettable for him.
In a corner of the steel factory, Xiao Heng and Wang Tiechui were busy facing a pile of angle steel.
Xiao Heng carefully stuffed a red-burned rivet into the gap between the angle steel. Then Wang Tiehai held the rivet and placed its butt on the anvil, and then swung the hammer to hit it.
"Dangdangdangdang..."
The rivets gradually deformed under the hammer, and finally the two pieces of angle steel are tightly riveted together.
"Okay...complete." Xiao Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, a rectangular angle steel skeleton had already begun to appear in front of them.
"Where is the spring? Try installing the spring." Xiao Heng asked.
"I remember to put it here... I'll look for it." Wang Tiechui opened the wooden box and started rummaging.
"Finally found!"
Wang Tiech raised the "spring" and said.
This "spring" is not something like the impression, but is made of several thick iron sheets stacked together and riveted with rivets - this is the structure of the commonly used shock absorbing springs in cars: automotive steel sheet springs.
Wheels, balls, load-bearing frames, shock-absorbing springs... As the parts slowly installed, the chassis of the last four-wheeled carriage began to take shape.
"Huh... come on, let's try it." Xiao Heng stepped on the frame and thought it was OK, so he pulled Wang Tiech up with him and jumped on the frame a few times.
"Haha! It's done!" Xiao Heng stretched out his right hand and shook it. Wang Tiechu also stretched out his right hand stiffly. Then Xiao Heng slapped his hand suddenly and said excitedly, "Let's go and see if the car is ready."
The two of them came to the carpenter's workshop not far away - Xiao Heng had already hired the family of water trucks. There were still many places to use carpenters in the future. You can't always waste your time on the way to hire people, right?
The carpenter's workshop is better than the blacksmith shop, at least it has walls...
...There is nothing valuable in the blacksmith shop, and iron scraps and other things are returned to the warehouse every day. Most of the other production tools are so heavy that they cannot be moved. Moreover, there is no water truck to move away, so there is no wall built at the blacksmith shop for the time being.
As soon as he entered the carpenter's workshop, Xiao Heng saw the wooden carriage placed in it. Since Xiao Heng also handed over to these carpenters to use various measurement tools, the size of the carriage perfectly matches the chassis of the carriage.
Call a few people to lift the carriage onto the chassis, and finally fix it at the reserved latch... The main body of a four-wheeled carriage is completed! If it is painted and the interior is decorated, it can be claimed that it has built the world's first four-wheeled carriage!
"Young Master! Look... it's so light!" Wang Tiehui tried to push the carriage, but he didn't expect that the heavy chassis and such a large volume of wood would actually push it lightly, not much heavier than an ordinary cart.
"Of course!" Xiao Heng smiled, "Why don't you go up and try it?"
Wang Tiehui tentatively opened the car door and climbed up... Xiao Heng pushed it hard from behind, and the carriage slid forward by itself...
"Hey hey... it's moving! It's going to hit the wall!" Wang Tiech screamed in fear.
"Pull down the handbrake and beside the seat in front of you." Xiao Heng couldn't laugh, but he still reminded.
Chapter completed!
