"I don't know much about this drawing, but I heard you say that once this 'steam engine' is built, many of our industries will be able to increase production. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Feng Chuan pushed the drawings on the table to Sun Qi and said in a deep voice.

There is no shortage of highly skilled craftsmen in the equipment department, according to Feng Chuan's estimate, it should not be difficult to make this big guy, if it is really as Sun Qi said, once this big guy comes out, the productivity of various industries in Jiangning County will increase exponentially.

Feng Chuan had to admit that he was moved, if the local productivity doubled, this would undoubtedly give him a brilliant stroke for his official achievements, and for future promotions, this is also a lot of achievements, even if Sun Qi now gave him the results of the drawings he made, it was enough for him to compete in Yangzhou in a few years.

With such thoughts, Sun Qi is so busy that he must be helped.

"Lord Gunden just needs to help me collect enough of these materials."

Feng Chuan picked up a piece of material that Sun Qi handed him, and then looked at it carefully.

The materials above are not difficult, with Sun Qi's brain, these materials can really be transformed into the huge machine depicted on the drawings.

Feng Chuan felt incredible, of course, Sun Qi had another condition, he needed the cooperation of the people of the Equipment Department, in order to express his sincerity, Feng Chuan called the Director of the Equipment Department this time.

Zhang Wenzhong, the director of the equipment department, has just passed thirty, and he is from a personal background, because he has no relationship with the DPRK and China, he can only be a staff member in the local government, but Zhang Wenzhong can become the director of the county, he must have his strengths, although Zhang Wenzhong can not fully understand the drawings of the steam engine, but under Sun Qi's painstaking education, he can finally know the principle of the steam engine.

"That is, when a large pot of water is boiled, the steam released produces a huge amount of energy, which then drives a lot of production equipment?"

Zhang Wenzhong held the newspaper in one hand and his cheeks in the other, this is the performance of people when thinking, once Zhang Wenzhong thinks about it, he doesn't even recognize his boss, Feng Chuan also knows the temperament of his subordinates, and he doesn't bother, leaving Zhang Wenzhong and Sun Qi to discuss all night.

This night can be described as a transformative night, a historic moment, so much so that Zhang Wenzhong became Sun Qi's right-hand man on the road in the future.

The next day, the two walked out of Feng Chuan's room hand in hand, laughing, talking about the manufacturing method of the steam engine, after a night of guidance and education, Zhang Wenzhong finally understood the principle of the steam engine, which is not easy in contemporary times, if you want people to accept a new idea, it is impossible to achieve it instantly, because modernization, is also a process of slow promotion.

It took thousands of years for the ancients to turn from the Stone Age to the Information Age, Sun Qi felt that Zhang Wenzhong was very talented, and it was really condescending to let him be the director of the county's instrument department, but it was even more condescending to follow himself.

Feng Chuan saw the two of them coming out with a smile, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, Zhang Wenzhong saw that the chief was coming, and hurriedly saluted.

"How? How's the discussion, two of you? ”

Feng Chuan seemed more anxious than Sun Qi, but what answered him was an affirmative smile.

As a trainee mechanic, Sun Qi was able to unlock the drawings of the steam engine, and last night he studied the drawings repeatedly with Zhang Wenzhong, and Zhang Wenzhong also expressed his opinion, if the equipment department is not manpowered, some craftsmen can be transferred from private enterprises in Jiangning County, and the level of these craftsmen is also quite good.

Sun Qi agreed, of course, these coordination work was handled by Feng Chuan, of course, the lord of a county covered the sky with one hand, those private enterprises, the businesses of the four major families heard that the county keeper had something, and all of them violently recommended their craftsmen to the county keeper, and the Yang family promised that if the iron-making furnace was needed, the Yang family was willing to provide the right to use it for free.

"Thank you so much."

Feng Chuan explained a machine for drug research and development in a private family meeting, and the eyes of those families all lit up, as if they saw gold and silver treasures, no, as if they saw strange goods more precious than gold and silver.

Hmph, do you think I don't know what you old things think, the Yang family gave me the use of the iron-making blast furnace for free, not to share the benefits of the new machine for a bowl of soup, the new drawings provided by Sun Gongzi also gave the Yang family a lot of copies, but they asked for a very high price, if it wasn't for the timely price adjustment of the official, Sun Gongzi estimated that all the drawings were withdrawn.

"You must know that the application of the steam engine is divided into four steps, air intake, expansion, exhaust, compression four parts, if you want to build a machine that is the same as the drawings, you must first know that the machine is divided into several parts, each part must be rushed to production, and finally installed together."

It is not as good as the workshop of the equipment division, and there is a gust of hot wind in front of him, which makes Sun Qi a little uncomfortable, this is the craftsmen smelting copper and iron by thermal method.

"Of course, it consists of a frame, cylinders, pistons, linkage crank mechanism, steam distribution and flywheel, which is a major key to transforming productivity, and the rest of the equipment needs to be finely crafted."

Zhang Wenzhong replied, after Sun Qi's explanation overnight, he had roughly figured out which parts to manufacture first and assemble them into a set, that is, the steam engine.

Zhang Wenzhong first found a large boiler out of nowhere, which seemed to be used for soju in the past, but this is the foundation, in the past, the old-fashioned train needed to add water to enter the station, and the large boiler was also filled with water, and the water was boiled by the coal to form steam.

"It's that the cylinder is more difficult to involve here, I'll let people make a cylinder according to the drawings for you to see, if you can, design it according to this."

Zhang Wenzhong knew that the steam entered the cylinder from the large steam boiler through the steam pipe and the steam distribution device, and there was a piston in the cylinder, which reciprocated from one end to the other in order during the steam night.

"Yes, that's right, when one end of the piston is entering the steam, the used exhaust gas will be discharged from the other end, so that the circulation is achieved, and when the workers make the piston rod, they try to make wrought iron as much as possible, which is more heat-resistant."

Sun Qi further explained that he found that these craftsmen were also quite perceptive, and they were very clear.

"The piston is connected with one end of the connecting rod with a piston rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected with the crank shaft, and the steam distribution device is driven by an eccentric wheel on the crank shaft of the steam engine."

Zhang Wenzhong continued, and the people in his equipment department were divided into several waves, and several waves of people made different devices.

The craftsmen couldn't accept such complex drawings at first, but the drawings were like a maze that needed to be unlocked, and Sun Qi instructed them on what to do.

"Soft machine steel, bronze, brass, can be used as raw materials for the manufacture of pistons, Jiangning produces bronze, just use bronze as pistons!"

A few workers were sent to manufacture the membrane of the piston, and the bronze cast piston was more durable, more sensitive, and could greatly improve efficiency.

At the next distribution, the manufacturing of many parts was carried out in an orderly manner, and this time coincided with Feng Chuan's inspection.

"Sun Gongzi, how is it? I'm still a worker, aren't they? ”

Feng Chuan's eyes showed expectation, and Sun Qi nodded symbolically, of course, it was average, because after the parts of the steam engine were ready, assembly was still a big problem.
