Chapter 92: Why It Turned
The craftsmen shuttled back and forth, methodically, and the speed of steel knife production was fast!
Han Yike looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and was extremely shocked!
Before Li Wei said that he must sharpen his weapon first, he didn't take it seriously, but now when he sees this result, he knows how good Li Wei's tool is!
After a rough turn, he estimated that at this rate, at most, 100,000 steel knives would be delivered in a month.
"Master Li, are you ...... This is built so quickly, can the quality work? ”
Han Yike found Li Wei, pointed to the busy craftsmen and asked.
Li Wei was tinkering with magnets and motors, and when he heard his words, he said perfunctorily: "Oh, no problem, you can try it if you don't worry." ”
The steel knife is so simple, it is produced step by step, to be honest, he doesn't care about these weapons, if it weren't for the task arranged by Lao Zhu must be completed, he wouldn't have made these rags, after having firearms, taking these things to the battlefield is to deliver food to people, and making this is not as good as making farm tools.
He didn't care, but Han Yike was very concerned, and when he saw that he was busy, he didn't ask him anymore, and he personally asked the craftsman to find a hundred forging knives that had been forged by hand before, and took a steel knife newly made by Li Wei from the shelf.
First of all, I compared it in appearance, and it didn't look much different.
Then let the people put the steel knife on the ground and hold it, the blade was facing upward, and he held the hundred forging knife and slashed down.
With a sound, some sparks were sharpened between the blades of the two knives, and the hundred forging knives bounced up.
Han Yike's hands were numb from the shock, after all, he was only a civil official, and he didn't know how to use knives.
I took the two knives in front of me and looked at them, and they were all intact. Han Yike couldn't help but be surprised:
"Master Li, your kind of knife is really good, it must be qualified!"
"Of course."
Li Wei didn't look back, and continued to be busy with himself, he selected some materials suitable for making magnets, made the desired shape and put them in the magnetizing coil wound by copper wire, and adjusted the voltage regulator to test different voltages for magnetization.
These magnets are for new generators, the magnets are very magnetic, and they should be enough for the time being, as for whether to use electromagnetic coils to make large generators in the future, that is a matter of the future.
In addition to magnets, he also made a three-phase AC motor, three-phase AC can directly form a rotating magnetic field, and the motor rotor can follow the magnetic field as long as it is made into a closed-loop conductor, without capacitance or anything, that thing can't be made for the time being, and he will study it later.
Han Yike put down the steel knife, came to Li Wei's side, watched him tinker with this big iron lump, and asked curiously:
"What is this?"
"Electric motors."
"What is an electric motor?"
"As the name suggests, it's a machine powered by electricity."
Han Yike was shocked when he heard this: "Electricity? Do you mean thunder and lightning in the sky?
"Well, almost." Li Wei said lightly.
Han Yike's eyes widened in shock: "You...... Are you saying that you can master the power of heavenly thunder? ”
Li Wei saw that he had never seen the world, and he despised him a little, and at the same time felt a sense of superiority in his heart...... Well, well, it's a bit bigger than a diar.
"yes, yes, I'm amazing." Li Weitian shamelessly boasted.
Han Yi could see his appearance, and immediately became suspicious of his words, and sneered:
"Oh, I don't believe it!"
Li Wei glanced at him and didn't refute it, anyway, it was going to be tested in a while, facts speak louder than words.
After assembling the motor, he carefully checked it again, this handmade motor is very rough, several places that should be tightly fitted leaked a large gap, the coil inside can be seen, the key is the motor shaft, and the smooth mirror shaft is far from the turned.
For the time being, we can only do this first, the key is to verify whether it can turn normally, and then slowly improve the rest.
Li Wei installed a wooden wheel on the motor shaft and fixed it, and then closed the crude knife switch, and the switch flashed a small arc at the moment of closing, Han Yike's eyes were suddenly startled, and he said in his heart, Could this Lord Li really master the power of thunder and lightning?
As the knife opens and closes, the motor begins to hum and quickly reaches its maximum speed.
Han Yike and the onlookers were all stunned when they looked at this iron lump that suddenly turned on its own!
Why does it turn?
How can it turn around?
No one, no waterwheel, nothing to drive it, it just spun on its own?
This group of craftsmen includes Han Yike, they can't figure out how this thing turns even if they want to break their heads, they can't even understand what electricity is, let alone what electromagnetic induction, the transformation of kinetic energy and electrical energy, this phenomenon in front of them is beyond the scope of their cognition, and now their minds are full of question marks and exclamation marks!
"Master Li, this ...... This is, how to get there? ”
Han Yike asked blankly pointing to the motor.
The craftsmen also cast curious glances, which is amazing!
"Oh, I cast a spell on him." Li Wei said seriously, and after speaking, he also made up a spell casting action of Bai Suzhen.
Han Yike's eyes widened in shock, although reason told him that this was impossible, but the scene in front of him was not inexplicable, for a moment, he really doubted whether Li Wei was human or not!
Thinking about it carefully, the origin of this person is really a bit mysterious, after His Majesty abolished the Zhongshu Province, he suddenly brought this person into the court, claiming where he came from, but where he came from, but he did not make it clear.
Originally, he had the same opinion as most of the courtiers in the court, thinking that His Majesty was deceived by traitors, and Li Wei was actually a swagger.
But after more contact, he found that although this Master Li behaved strangely, did not know how to be polite, and was full of feces, he was still very lazy......
However, when he really started to do things, he was still very serious, which made his opinion of Li Wei a little better.
Before, he saw that under Li Wei's manipulation, batches of high-quality steel knives were created in this way, which made his opinion completely change, and he felt that His Majesty was indeed discerning and discerning, and Li Wei was indeed a talented and strange person.
And now, seeing this, Li Wei actually claimed to have mastered the art of thunder and lightning, and he also cast spells...... Well, let's just cast a spell and let an iron lump spin on its own, which shocked him in his heart!
Counting the things that this person has done, he first suggested that His Majesty abolish the Zhongshu Province (being pitted), then made a tabular bookkeeping method, made a powerful flintlock pistol, improved the method of iron-making, and now has mastered the power of thunder and lightning!
Enveloped! Have no bottom! Inscrutable......
Han Yike didn't come up with a reason for a while, and the eyes of the craftsmen next to him who looked at Li Wei were full of awe.
People like Han Yike, who have read poetry and books, may still question that Li Wei is pretending to be a ghost, but these craftsmen don't think so, in their eyes, the squire at this time is a god descending to earth!
"Okay, I won't tease you, in fact, this is a kind of use of electricity, electricity is the same as fire, it is just a form of energy, people can master fire, and naturally they can also master electricity."
Seeing everyone's stupid looks, Li Wei put away his magical powers and explained as easily as possible.
"And where does this electricity come from?"
Han Yike asked.
"Generator."
"How did you send it?"
Li Wei glanced at him, if this was explained, it would be endless, thought about it, and decisively flickered:
"With love, of course!"
Li Wei wrapped his arms around and opened them again, making the gesture of the Lord loving the world.
Han Yike looked at Li Wei blankly, his eyes were full of confusion, he felt that love came too fast like a tornado, and he couldn't leave the storm circle and didn't have time to escape......
Li Wei no longer cared about this Lord Han, whose brain was rolled into a pulp, stepped forward to turn off the switch, the motor slowly stopped, and after the appearance in front of the person, he ordered someone to put away this "artifact".
The motor is made and can also be rotated, but the practicability is very poor, the eddy current loss is serious, the shaft process is not enough, the rotation is very vibrating, and the copper used in the coil is not pure copper......
Faced with this bunch of problems, Li Wei could only sigh and slowly find a way to solve it.
The reason why he is so anxious to make motors is that he wants to make machine tools, machine tools are the mother of industry, and there are too many things that need to be machined!
For example, steam engines, water pumps, oil pumps, and even screws are inseparable from machine tools.
At best, this is related to transportation, agriculture, and mechanized mass production, and at a lesser level, tap water, heating, and even the production of light bulbs are vacuumed with pumps.
In short, if you want to improve your living standards, you can't do without these machines in all aspects, which is what he wants.
It's a pity that the idea is very good, but the steps are too big and unrealistic.
Li Wei sighed, he wanted to do it in one step, but after trying it, he found that it didn't work, it seemed that he still had to eat one bite at a time!
Oh, and we're talking about rice.
When the Great Leap Forward failed, he could only be down-to-earth and start by improving hydraulic lathes.
Sunrise and sunset, although there is no young lady with various short videos in the days of Daming, but fortunately, he still has Xiaoqing, and he can not only see it, but also touch it.
Li Wei pretended to be every once in a while, Xiaoqing was not stupid, he had already seen it, but he didn't demolish him.
And Xiaoqing doesn't just rub his butt now, sometimes he beats his legs or pinched his shoulders or something, although there is no big job, but it is enough to make Li Weile not think about it.
On the side of the Ordnance Bureau, Li Wei gave an order and announced that he would give bonuses to the craftsmen on a piece-by-piece basis, although it was not much, only a few pennies per thing, but the motivation of the craftsmen immediately improved a lot, like swords, which used to have five knives a day, but now they have directly done ten knives, and the efficiency has doubled! Originally, it was completed in less than 20 days a month.
As for flintlock pistols, thanks to the right steel, the shooting is much easier to make, and the firing performance has also improved, and there are basically no firing failures.
Other armor, bows and arrows have long been being produced step by step, and since Li Wei promulgated the system of paying bonuses by piece, the production speed has also been greatly improved.
The things that Lao Zhu asked for at the beginning are basically completed now.
Li Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, asked people to put all these things in the inventory, and then prepared to go to other things.
As for the fact that it is impossible to deliver in advance, just kidding, he knows the urine of these dog bosses best, if he dares to deliver in advance, then the next task will immediately hit your head, and it will give you a double bonus!
