Shao Xi had never thought of creating something like a glider in this world, but now that Ruan Haoyang's father has designed the prototype of a glider, it is not a problem to make a glider with a few modifications to a ready-made pattern.
Judging from the current drawings, Boss Ruan had not deviated from the inherent idea of kites when designing this kite. In other words, kites were still used as the original design principle.
So the Aoyuan in the drawing looks like an enlarged version of a kite. The only difference is that the design of two wings is added to the original kite. This design is mainly to effectively increase stability in the air. .
Anyone who has flown a kite knows that if an ordinary kite encounters some turbulence in the air when it is put into the air, the kite will keep flipping in the air and finally fall to the ground.
It's fine if it's just a kite, but if there were people on the kite, wouldn't they also fall to death?
Although Boss Ruan's design added two wings, which increased the stability of flight to a certain extent, this was obviously not enough.
As most people know, an airplane can fly in the air by the forward thrust generated by its engine, which causes the wings of the airplane to generate upward lift in the air. However, a glider has no power and can only rely on the upward airflow in the air to maintain flight. high.
Strictly speaking, the height of the glider is constantly decreasing, but the higher the lift-to-drag ratio, the farther the glider flies in the air and the longer it takes.
At the same time, there are also high requirements for the flying environment, which requires those who control the glider to have relatively rich experience and know how to use the existing flight environment to continuously increase the flying height of the glider to extend the flight distance and flight time.
Strictly speaking, the Aoyuan designed by Boss Ruan is more like a hang glider, that is, a pylon is added under the kite with two wings, and people can perform some limited control of the Aoyuan on this pylon.
Although this can send people to the sky, it is difficult to fly flexibly, and it also hides huge safety risks. The overly simple design is really insufficient in the ability to adapt to the complex aerial flight environment.
At this time, what Shao Xi was thinking about was to upgrade the Aoyuan designed by Boss Ruan to make it a true glider, which would require major changes in the overall shape.
For example, the long and narrow streamlined fuselage, the wings with a huge wingspan, the wing shape with an upper arc and a flat bottom, and even the winglets on the wing tips have been considered, not to mention the vertical tail and parallel tail.
Shao Xi never dreamed that one day he would design this thing in this world. If it weren't for the design of Boss Ruan that aroused his interest, and because Ruan Haoyang fought to save this thing, Shao Xi would really not want to go. It is nerve-wracking to design and manufacture such a complex thing.
This is not as simple as making gunpowder and glass beads. There are too many things involved.
The design of flight technology and control systems is a complex system engineering involving flight physics, mechanical design and control theory. It even involves materials science in modern times. It requires the cross-integration of multiple disciplines, continuous exploration and innovation, and continuous challenging of limits.
It is obviously very difficult for Shao Xi to actually build this thing by himself, but fortunately, Shao Xi used to be a technology enthusiast and has some understanding of these things. It is not easy to make a design plan first. Difficult, the difficult thing is to turn it into a real thing in the future.
However, while improving and designing the glider, Shao Xi had other ideas in his mind that were not related to the thing itself.
The Aoyuan designed by Boss Ruan was not perfect, and even had huge flaws. After further improving the design on this basis, Boss Ruan's original design became meaningless, but in Shao Xi's mind, this design could Used for other things.
Aren't there people who are trying hard to get this thing now? Since a pattern with design flaws is no longer useful to you, why not use it as bait to fish out the force you have been investigating?
Back then, they did not hesitate to cause a tragedy in the Ruan family to get the picture of the flying kite. They also used sects and killer organizations in the world to get this thing from Ruan Haoyang, which shows that this picture is extremely important to some people.
From Shao Xi's analysis of the purpose of the Aoyuan, anyone who wants to get it must also know what it can be used for.
For those who intend to rebel, the appearance of Aoyuan can indeed be an important success factor. It seems that this force has already made preparations in advance for starting a war.
There are actually not many people who have this kind of idea and this kind of strength in the current Jingyuan Dynasty. It is not that there are no doubts in Shao Xi's heart, but before there are very conclusive clues and evidence, Shao Xi doesn't want to Make premature conclusions in your own mind.
So the best way is to induce them to show up on their own, and the pattern in his hands is the best bait.
However, although the bait is available, he still needs a line and a hook. This line is the Ghost Emperor's Mansion that participated in the pursuit of Ruan Haoyang, and the hook is the life-killing card that he currently holds in his hand.
Now that you have the bait, hook, and line, the question now is which direction should you throw your fishing rod?
The pattern in his hand is what the Ghost Emperor's Mansion has been looking for. If he wants to fish out the person behind it through the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, he must first get in touch with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, and the way to get in touch is with the life-killing card in his hand.
But the Ghost Emperor's Mansion has always been mysterious and unpredictable. Where should I go to find the Ghost Emperor's Mansion even if I have Ao Yuan's drawing and the life card in my hand?
When Shao Xi looked up, he saw Old Wu who had been staring at him. Unexpectedly, after being stunned here for a while, Old Wu actually said nothing and looked at him quietly from the side, as if he wanted to know how he planned to change the design of Aoyuan.
"Old Wu, do you know where to find the Ghost Emperor's Mansion? How to get in touch with them?" Old Wu obviously did not expect that Shao Xi would suddenly ask such a question. Wasn't he just talking about changing the pattern and redesigning the Aoyuan?
Why did you suddenly ask such a question out of nowhere? And he actually didn’t know about the matter he was asking about!
For a moment, Lao Wu felt that Shao Xi was targeting him today. He either said something he didn't understand or asked some questions he didn't know. Wasn't this deliberately trying to make him, an old man, look bad?
"What are you thinking about, kid? You were just telling me about Aoyuan, why did you suddenly ask about the Ghost Emperor's Mansion? How do I know how to contact those guys who are neither humans nor ghosts? ?
"I never thought about asking them to help me kill anyone? It's impossible for anyone to ask them to hunt down a thief like me who only knows how to steal things. If it weren't for you, I would never have anything to do with them in this life. , are you asking me in vain?" After hearing Old Wu's answer, Shao Xi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If even Old Wu didn't know how to find them, I'm afraid very few people would be able to find them. This Ghost Emperor's Mansion It's really elusive and mysterious.
But now that things have developed to this point, it can be said that everything is ready, all that is left is the east wind. As long as you have the opportunity to contact the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, you can see the Impermanent Judge Shen Bu Gai through the life card in his hand. This guy must know who wanted to hunt down Ruan Haoyang in the first place, so he can use the drawing of the flying kite in his hand as a bargaining chip. There is a great possibility that he will know the person behind it from his mouth.
Although as a killer organization, they must keep the identity and origin of their employer absolutely confidential, but fortunately, the bargaining chip in their hands is enough. Even if Shen Bugai refuses to tell himself the person behind it, he can at least use him to tell him who is behind it. Lead that person out.
Regardless of whether you have the ability to deal with the opponent, you must at least confirm the opponent's identity first. When playing games, you must know who your opponent is.
Now the other party is hiding in the dark, and he is in the open. Although he has used some overt and covert means to disrupt the other party's sight, he will always be in a passive situation if this continues.
Only by knowing the exact identity of the other party can you truly turn your passiveness into an active one. Otherwise, you can only cast a net in all directions to test, which is really inefficient.
Just when Shao Xi was feeling a little worried, Lao Wu's words reminded him.
"Master, when you came back yesterday, didn't you tell me that you had found the Xinjing Teahouse where they exchanged information through the little Liuzi from Dali Temple? Since that teahouse was the place where they exchanged information, would their connection with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion be affected? Will it also pass through there?" That's right!
Xinjing Teahouse is the place where they exchange news. So if they want to get in touch with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, they must pass the news here.
In this case, does it mean that when the life card appears in Xinjing Tea House, it is a signal that someone wants to get in touch with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion?
Although the matter is still uncertain, Lao Wu did provide Shao Xi with an idea. Maybe he can really start with Xinjing Tea House.
It seems that we should go to Dali Temple to find out from Long Qitai what the spies they arranged in the Xinjing Teahouse saw.
Is it possible to contact the Ghost Emperor's Mansion through Xinjing Tea House? But before that, Shao Xi still had a lot to do, so he sent Old Wu back to the woodshed, and went to the desk and started to deal with the things to be done after returning to Kyoto one by one.
The first two things to do now are to write two reports, one of which is to be submitted to Xiao Changyi. After all, the names of the people he recommends and the recommended positions must be clearly listed.
Another excerpt is written to
Zhang Yuzheng, the immediate boss of the "Jingcheng Division", had to write an application to his superiors if he wanted to use spies and secret agents from all over Jingyuan Kingdom, right?
The other thing is to draft a contract to cooperate with Zhang Huanzhi in the Jiangnan Yunsha business. The promise to share 10% of the net profit cannot be empty talk.
Shao Xi suddenly felt that he had a lot to do. Didn't he promise to make a career in the world when he left the grassland?
