The people in the Political Yuan are all fine people. Although the current shortcomings of the aircraft are very obvious, from the perspective of this group of people, the development potential of this thing is very reliable, so after seeing Qu's screams falling, Yes, they are very interested in investing money.
"It should be enough for the head of the family to fall down once." Qu's researcher looked at the crashed plane and turned to ask.
"Many families should have seen it. We are the only ones who can fly now. Although we have a lot of dark history, we can really fly, which is valuable." The elder of the Qu family said in an exciting tone, "We will wait for two years. The one who can fly for five minutes will be sent out in the sky, and in two days I will talk to the palace guard and borrow the Wanxiang Shrine to go around Chang'an."
"It can't fly that long," the researcher said in a panic.
"It's okay. It proves that my technology has advanced very quickly and improved quickly. As for falling, you have to be prepared to fall when you fly into the sky." The Qu clan elder said plausibly.
"But it's barely sunny today, and it's going to snow again in two days." Another researcher objected. This is not a test flight, but a risk of death.
"The snow has been thick recently, and it won't be fatal if you fall." The elder of the Qu family turned around and said very grandly, "Go back and continue research and advance technology as soon as possible. Whether we, the Qu family, can fly into the sky and stand side by side with the sun, it depends on us. It’s a credit to these people’s efforts.”
Several technicians looked at each other and shrugged. Although their clan elders were a bit cruel, to be honest, it was okay. After all, the human clan elders also boarded the plane for test flights. Everyone was fair enough to get on the plane for test flights. So there is no resentment.
"Okay, let's continue studying. And the one who studies appearance, please help me pick up the book again. The first explanation of aerodynamics is very useful. The family can only borrow one and return one. Hurry up and ask the one who worked on the turbine before Idiot, return the book and borrow Qi Dynasty." The young Qu family member greeted other members on the side.
The pneumatics book was written by Chen Xi himself. Although it is a very simple junior high school physics, no one has summarized it at this time, so after reading it, it can be said to be a treasure. However, the problem now becomes, some people want to build turbines, and some people want to build turbines. When it comes to transmission, some people want to develop pneumatic power.
Anyway, no one thought about how to land during the whole process, and no one considered safety issues. Currently, the members of the Qu family think that if they fly up, they will fall down when the power is insufficient...
Therefore, there is no need to think about it now. When landing these things, they will fall anyway. At present, they fall every time, and there have even been problems with disintegration. Everyone present is basically used to it.
"Bang." A wrench fell from the sleeve of the turbine maker. Qu Ming, who spoke, was a little silent. He shook his sleeve and dropped a hammer, and then looked at the other side.
The other party was silent for a while, then handed the borrowed mechanically driven book to Qu Ming. It was obvious that in such a short time, the edges of the book, which had been strengthened by the essence of heaven and earth, were scratched out.
When Qu Ming took the book and was about to take it to Xindongguan to replace it with pneumatics, someone pressed it against a tree, and the member of the Qu family who worked on mechanics got it first.
"I went to borrow a book on structural science, but it fell apart again." Before he finished speaking, everyone heard the ripping sound of the cloth being torn apart, and several tools fell out of the sleeves. Finally, Also dropped was a small electric motor.
"What are you looking at? The motor I just knocked out is not for you to use." The other party ignored the other tools that fell. He picked up the fist-sized motor first, rolled up his torn sleeves, and put the motor in his arms. , and then left just like that.
"Why does he have a small electric motor?" Qu Ming looked at the opponent's back and slowly turned to look at his previous opponent.
"I don't know." The young man from the Qu family opposite was also a little surprised. Isn't this a quota? Why is there one more? Also, why is this motor so small.
Qu Kuang knocked out the small motor by himself, and he also did the etching bit by bit by himself. He disassembled one of the three motors that Xianglishi assigned to their home, and then made one himself, from the shaft to the rotor. From the coils to the coils, they were all made by Qu Kuang himself.
In Qu Kuang's words, it's not difficult at all. Except for the process of car bearings, which is a bit tricky, the rest is just like that.
This is roughly the case, because Qu Kuang and the rest of the Qu family are not from the same family. The rest of the Qu family are working on airplanes all day long, and Qu Kuang is a fake airplane research technician.
In fact, Qu Kuang is a fan of powered mechas. By the way, Qu Kuang has developed this hobby to the Ji family in Danyang next door. He cheated the Ji family by relying on this technology that he didn't know if it would be possible. A girl.
In short, Mrs. Ji was shocked after hearing that. It turns out that this can still be the case. I will give you my whole girl. Come and join our Ji family.
Naturally, Qu Kuang refused righteously. Of course, the girl did not refuse. After all, it is difficult for engineering bosses to find girls when their families do not send girls. Especially the girls from the Ji family are gentle and considerate. Qu Kuang knelt down without even resisting.
In the end, Qu Kuang's stubbornness only stopped at the fact that I couldn't marry the Ji family, but I would definitely not refuse Ji family's request for my help. In short, Qu Kuang had already run away. He didn't want to build an airplane. Why do stupid earthlings always keep building airplanes? To break through the shackles of gravity, isn't it good to stand on the ground and wear a mecha? Aren’t the shield guards beautiful too?
Especially if the mecha itself can move, wouldn't the defense be stacked up even more fiercely? It can even go a step further. There is no need for human existence that reduces combat effectiveness. Besides, the local people are just expensive these days, and the number is actually not enough.
To raise a legion of 5,000 people, not counting equipment, the annual expenditure on raising soldiers is more than 100 million, which costs an average of nearly 20,000 yuan per person. This is too terrible and cannot be afforded, so I still use it. Moving steel is better. At least if you spend it once, you don't need to invest again in the future. Even if it is blown up, it can be recycled and reused.
What's more important is that there is no need to think about the future when building such a legion. Therefore, after considering logistics, salary, and pensions, it turns out that the unmanned mecha legion is still reliable.
In short, Qu Kuang drank too much that time, and when he blew it to Ji Liang's scheming daughter, it was shocking. Now it seems that a finished product is about to be released, but the ergonomics requirements are too high and the design difficulty is too ridiculous. , and finally Qu Kuang bit the bullet and designed it into a lying-down shape. It was a bit ugly and a bit slow, but its combat effectiveness was okay and its defense was even better.
It was the cost that made Ji feel a little flustered. A single-person mecha would need four engines and two tons of steel.
The cost was unbearable, but seeing how safe this thing was after being seated in it, Ji decided to propose marriage to Qu during the Chinese New Year, and first tied this outstanding child to their pirate ship.
What kind of aircraft, what kind of engine, let’s talk about nest-type mechas. It’s okay to be ugly, as long as it’s practical. Let’s get a hundred of them first. In the future, we may not be able to rely on this for war. One hundred of them is considered a country with a hundred vehicles. A thousand vehicles is a country of thousands of vehicles, and ten thousand vehicles is a country of ten thousand vehicles.
Thinking about it this way, isn't this a way to restore the ancestral system and reproduce the Spring and Autumn Period's simple way of dividing the country's combat power? By the way, Mr. Ji is really not joking. He really thinks this thing is very useful. After all, even if the country has been founded these days, there are relatively few people, so it is better to do this.
Even though the attack methods are somewhat scarce, it is no joke that the Ji family can sneak into the aristocratic family. There is also an integration master in the family. As for how to observe this almost completely enclosed steel chariot, you have to consider that the Ji family is from Danyang. The Danyang soldiers have stronger organization, but they have shared vision, and Danyang also has long-range attacks.
Therefore, under the leadership of the integration master of the Ji family, the Ji family has developed a hundred small country combat technologies-infantry combat vehicle coordination, medium and long-range suppression strikes, etc.
In fact, this is just taking out the Chunqiu technology and revising it. Human beings are essentially the same thing. They have played with chariots and infantry for a thousand years. Now it is just to do it again. The car has been replaced with a more advanced one and more solid leather.
"I have to think of a way to make money. This tank is too expensive." While Qu Kuang was thinking about a better future, Danyang Ji family started to think of a way to make money again after trying to get a new engine. There was no other way. , the new version of the steel chariot is too expensive. It is really easy to use, but it really costs money. I have to think of ways to make money.
"Everyone is short of money now. Although we are not short of gold and silver, it's hard to buy things with gold and silver." Ji Liang looked at his own father and said helplessly.
To be honest, it is an eye-opener for the major families to have survived for so many years. There are indeed families with enough gold and silver. When they cannot buy supplies, if they are rich, the major families can now spend several times more gold and stone than before. Jade, because of the current situation, everyone has a mine.
And it is completely different from the situation in the Central Plains where the total amount was sufficient but the mineral veins were not rich. Now all the major families choose their own places when they go out. When choosing, they all look to see if there are any mines that are easy to dig. There are tens of millions of square kilometers to choose from. There are dozens of companies to choose from, and you have to think about which one has no mine.
But it was the mines that troubled Chen Xi. The precious metals such as gold and silver that Chen Xi received were not big at all. Instead, Chen Xi needed ordinary mines. But these mines were transported from the fiefdom, and the day lilies were cold.
Chen Xi is willing to help each family build a township-level smelting plant for future generations, but most of the poor families can't even arrange technical personnel and personnel management, so Chen Xi has no choice but to do so.
The annual steel output of Qingzhou Smelting Department and Bingzhou Smelting Department is only that of later county-level units, which may not be as good as the level of the later generations, but in this era, it has shocked the family for decades!
