Chapter 6: Men's Toys
This year, Huang Mingqiang, who is already eleven years old, began to study in the fifth grade of primary school, and his academic performance has entered the top ten in the class, and everything is moving towards a better future, but at this time, a toy that makes a man's heart move appears in his sight!
It turned out that when the weekend was off, Huang Minghong, Huang Mingbo and Huang Mingkun came to Huang Mingqiang to go out again, saying that there was something interesting for him to see!
Several people went up the mountain together, and at this time, Huang Mingbo took out a slingshot, shook it in front of Huang Mingqiang, and said, "Let's go hunt birds!" ”
The slingshot is very simple to make, a forked branch, two elastic rubber skins, the rubber skin is usually cut from the inner tube of a car, motorcycle or bicycle, and the rest is a piece of cowhide. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Eleven or twelve-year-old kid, do you expect him to be able to knock down a bird from a tree with a slingshot? No kidding! No, I've been busy for a long time, and I haven't touched a single bird feather.
"Forget it, it's here today, go borrow Uncle Huang Yingyu's gunpowder gun in the afternoon and try it, maybe you can shoot the bird down with a gunpowder gun!" Huang Minghong wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and proposed.
Although Huang Yingyu is a few generations older than Huang Mingqiang, he is about five or six years older than them.
Several people had lunch at Huang Minghong's house, walked through a few fields, and arrived at Huang Yingyu's house.
"Uncle! I'm looking for you! Huang Mingkun, who was like a monkey, pulled Huang Yingyu to a no-man's corner and began to communicate.
Huang Yingyu looked at a few children who were both juniors and playmates, but if he lent them the gunpowder gun he liked very much, what if the gunpowder gun was damaged? But if you don't lend it to them, what will you do if you run to your father to complain?
After a moment of silence, Huang Yingyu said with a flash of inspiration: "There is a problem with my gun, and I can't hit the sand!" ”
"Uncle, my nephew won't borrow anything from you, forget it, let's go find Uncle Huang Yinglie, Uncle Huang Yinglie doesn't want you to be like this, push back!" Huang Mingkun said a run, and Huang Mingqiang and several others also echoed him.
Huang Yingyu thought about it, no! If they don't borrow it, they will go to Huang Yinglie, and won't the child king in the village become Huang Yinglie in the future?
"It's really broken, but how about I teach you how to make your own powder guns?" Since you don't want to lend your baby, teach them to do it! Huang Yingyu thought so.
When Huang Mingqiang and a few people heard this, they were suddenly very excited, they felt that it was not very good to borrow someone else's, if they could make it themselves, let others see it, and then the envious and jealous eyes surrounded themselves, wouldn't it be beautiful?
"I told you, you can't let adults know about this, do you know?" Huang Yingyu told a few people with a serious expression.
"Yes!"
"Let it go! No one will say! ”
"Hmmm! Never let anyone else know! ”
Huang Mingqiang patted his chest one by one and assured Huang Yingyu.
"Gunpowder guns are actually very simple, one is the barrel, a trigger, and the butt, and the power of firing can be either rubber or spring!"
Huang Yingyu briefly introduced the components of the gunpowder gun, and then said: "The fourth grandfather has a long bird gun, which is a gunpowder gun for hitting iron sand, let me tell you, we used to have a warehouse here that specializes in storing weapons and ammunition!" ”
"I heard my father say that there are not only long guns and short guns, but also hand grenades, which were set up to prevent bandits in the mountains, and at that time, even Huang Mingqiang and his grandfather went there to take grenades to blow up fish in the ditch, but then someone had an accident, and all these weapons and ammunition were taken away!"
Hearing Huang Yingyu talk about the heroic deeds of his grandfather who used to blow up fish in the ditch with a grenade, Huang Mingqiang was as curious as a cat's claw, and temporarily forgot the purpose of his few people here.
"Uncle, what the hell is going on?" Huang Mingbo asked Huang Yingyu curiously.
"What else can I do, when someone takes a grenade to blow up the fish, the fish doesn't blow up, and they blow themselves up!" Huang Yingyu said disapprerovingly.
"And such a stupid Ha'er?" Huang Mingkun scoffed.
"To put it bluntly, it also has a certain relationship with the quality of the grenade in the warehouse, the water in the ditch is not very deep, and if a grenade is dropped, the fish must be scared to run around, so when you blow up the fish, you must control the time of throwing the bomb, it may be that the grenade delayed explosion time is shorter by one or two seconds, and the result is to blow yourself up!"
"So, you must be careful when you play with gunpowder guns in the future, don't hurt others, and don't get yourself!"
"Hmm!"
"Don't worry! We'll be careful! ”
Seeing that several people made serious guarantees, Huang Yingyu told a few people about the production process of gunpowder guns.
"The barrel of the gun is actually very simple, it is the tube of the umbrella, as for the length, it is generally more than 20 centimeters!"
When a few people heard this, they immediately remembered the broken umbrella at home, the tube was about the same size as the barrel, and the thickness was about a millimeter, which was used to make the barrel, which was just right, so they nodded thoughtfully.
Subsequently, Huang Yingyu talked to several people about how to make triggers, butts and other components of gunpowder guns.
"I'll tell you how to install the powder gun, how much black powder is on it, and how many steel balls are added!" After Huang Yingyu finished speaking, he took out his treasure and demonstrated it for Huang Mingqiang and the others.
The four of them felt that they had learned a lot about the manufacture of gunpowder guns and guns, and hurried home, took the hacksaw and began to saw the steel pipe on the umbrella.
Easier said than done!
It took nearly half an hour for Huang Mingqiang to sawn off a small steel pipe, and then the butt of the gun was enough for him to get it for nearly a week.
From selecting a bent branch of the right size to cutting out a groove for installing a steel pipe with a knife, Huang Mingqiang deeply realized that it is not easy to manufacture gunpowder guns and guns.
Huang Mingqiang, who is focused on the manufacture of gunpowder guns and guns, keeps processing gunpowder guns and guns in his dreams every night when he sleeps, and naturally he doesn't have much thought when he is in class, and almost all of his thoughts are that gunpowder guns and guns are done, and others are envious and jealous!
The gunpowder gun was not ready, and when school was out that day, Huang Minghong said to Huang Mingqiang and Huang Mingbo: "Huang San, you go to my house first, and I will show you my father's baby!" ”
The three of them went home together, and then went to Huang Minghong's house, only to see him sneaking out a leather case from a hidden corner.
"See, what is this?" Huang Minghong looked at Huang Mingbo and Huang Mingqiang triumphantly.
"What's this? Isn't it just a toy gun? It's just that it's all black, and I still have a few toy guns that look like a lot at home! Huang Mingqiang didn't look closely, he felt that it was almost the same as the plastic toy gun at home, and he didn't care much.
"Hmmm! It's a toy gun, I still have two there, two days ago, my mother bought me an electric one, I tell you, as long as I pull the trigger, the gun still screams, and can sing? Huang Mingbo remembered the toy gun his mother bought for him, and his expression was triumphant.
"Toy guns? Is this a real gun, okay? Do toy guns weigh this much? Huang Minghong deliberately whispered to the two of them. Seeing that the two of them looked disbelieving, they deliberately handed the two to feel the weight of the things in their hands.
Huang Mingqiang grabbed it, the all-metal texture, dark appearance, and heavy feeling made him realize that something was wrong, but when he thought about Huang Minghong's father, who was the boss of his grandfather's family, and his uncle was the head of the village, he didn't think about the origin of that thing.
