Chapter 107 Horizontal Drilling Machine

And this trip, in order to reward Linger and Dieer for their busyness these days, Xiao Tianjian took them together and went to Shuangfeng Village with Fan Yutong.

After entering the Lianhua Village, Linger and Die'er, who had never come out again, finally walked out of the Lianhua Village again. Both of them looked a little excited. Sitting in the carriage, they lifted the curtain from time to time and looked out, and chatted in the carriage all the way. That's Xiao Tianjian It's true to let this guy lament that the three women have a play. If he had known it, he wouldn't have brought Linger and Die'er out. In that case, he could have chatted with Fan Yutong all the way. Now it's good. The three women came together and only cared about whispering between them. As a result, he was left aside. .

After lamenting, Xiao Tianjian had to rush to Shuangfeng Village. He stopped from time to time on the road and chatted with the people who were busy with spring ploughing in the field to ask about the difficulties they encountered in spring ploughing.

And it goes without saying that these ordinary people are grateful to Xing Tianjun now. As long as they see the people of Xing Tianjun, they will immediately kneel far away and sincerely kowtow to Xiao Tianjian. This made Xiao Tianjian believe more that as long as there are the hearts of these ordinary people, he will always achieve a career in the future.

The wall construction project of Shuangfengzhai did not stop because of the beginning of spring ploughing. Although many people gathered here earlier wanted to go home to work because of spring ploughing, a group of people they brought back from outside Yangcheng a year ago replaced the work of some local farmers and continued to help repair here. Build a wall.

Xing Tianjun implements the method of work-for-work. Only when they work can they have food to eat. It is impossible for people who do not work to eat and drink for nothing here. Therefore, the exiles do not hesitate to work hard for Xing Tianjun in order to eat. After all, in addition to being able to eat by themselves, they can more or less bring back their children more or less. Go a little bit, at least you don't have to worry about starving to death in the wilderness again.

Therefore, the construction of the wall is still continuing. Although in less than two months, the wall on the side of Shuangfengzhai has begun to see the scale, and the main body of the wall is almost the same. As for the work of covering stones outside, it is also in progress now. The basic part has been covered with stones more than one person high. Bu has the ability to resist the enemy.

In this way, Shuangfengzhai is much safer. Even if Zezhou is now sending troops to suppress it, it will still be blinded when facing the unfinished wall here.

After entering the village, Xiao Tianjian let Fan Yutong and Fan Linger move freely, and he himself took the iron head straight to the dam. When they walked to the upper reaches of the stream, they found that the first dam here had been completed, and the number of people building the dam was reduced by some, and these people were already starting to build the second dam. .

Xiao Tianjian once again expressed his satisfaction with the speed of the project here, and the waterwheel on the first dam is now in place. Several carpenters are debugging there and have not yet been put into use, and what should this water truck be used for? At present, Xiao Tianjian did not say, and they did not dare to be blind. Wait for Xiao Tianjian to come here to settle this matter.

After Xiao Tianjian looked at this waterwheel, he saw that the workmanship of the waterwheel was very good. Most of them were made of tenon and tenon structure. Few iron nails were used, but they were very strong, which fully reflected the level of carpenters, so he said to them, "This waterwheel is very strong and looks like it should It should be very durable. Now that it's done, don't be idle anymore. Find a way to connect the stone mill. The first water truck will be used for grinding noodles!"

There is a reason why Xiao Tianjian wants to use the first water truck to grind noodles. Now Xing Tianjun has so many mouths eating every day, and most of the food they grab is raw grain. Whether it is wheat or beans or even sorghum, most of them need to be ground into noodles to make cakes, and so many people are provided with food. In the past, it relies on manpower or animal power to grind the surface, which consumes a lot of human and material resources. At present, if a large water mill is invested, the water mill can run sleeplessly, which can also liberate a large amount of human and animal power to do other things.

As for the turbine-type waterwheel designed by Xiao Tianjian himself, the craftsmen are also manufacturing it. What is the specific use situation? Will it be more efficient? It can only be known after the second dam is completed. However, Xiao Tianjian believes that this matter cannot be wrong, as long as the craftsmen do not refine the design and manufacture. Wrong, this kind of turbine waterwheel will definitely greatly exceed the power that the first wheel waterwheel can provide.

Then Xiao Tianjian took the iron head to the back mountain Tiezuo. Before he reached Tiezuo's side, he heard the tinkling sound of iron in Tiezuo from afar.

When they entered Tiezuo, they saw that many craftsmen were still busy building agricultural tools. Although they had built a lot of agricultural tools in advance, there was still a big gap when they began spring ploughing. Therefore, after the news came back, Tiezuo did not dare to stop building agricultural tools, but was more energetic. Let's do it.

Xiao Tianjian took a cursory look at the farm tools. Although some farm tools are a little rough, such as the work done by apprentices, for farm tools, as long as such products are strong and durable, the quality can be slowly improved. In the next step, Xiao Tianjian intends to continue to build farm tools, even if he can't use them. You can also sell it to the Fan family and let the Fan family sell it to other places in exchange for what they need.

When Xiao Tianjian walked and looked at the Yangchangshou fireworkshop behind him, it was also a busy scene. What made Xiao Tianjian happy was that a lot of semi-finished products had been created here. The black semi-finished products were lined up on the shelves. At a rough look, there should be at least two or three hundred. That's a lot. After drilling, it can be assembled.

At present, the craftsmen here have basically done the division of labor and realized the assembly line operation. Everyone is responsible for the construction of a part. The quality of various parts seems to be steadily improving. This is also the benefits brought by the industry's expertise. As long as they are not stupid enough to create a thing every day, they can't practice it. Difficult.

Yang Changshou grinned and accompanied Xiao Tianjian to look at these spare parts with a smile. He looked proudly and picked up some parts from time to time for Xiao Tianjian to check.

After a cursory look, Xiao Tianjian immediately asked, "Has the drilling machine I made been built?"

Yang Changshou was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He made a gesture to Xiao Tianjian and said, "It's done, it's done!" Ha ha! General, please, it's right in the back. The small one specially asked Zhang sentry to arrange someone to build a shed for us to install this kind of drilling machine! General, go and have a look and you will know! Ha ha!"

Xiao Tianjian immediately followed Yang Changshou through the shed and walked into a new shed. The shed is very large, with an area of more than 200 square meters. The main structure is directly built with or even peeled logs. It is very simple, but it looks very strong, with ventilation conditions and The lighting conditions are quite good, which makes the air quality here much better than that in the blacksmith's shop.

Xiao Tianjian stepped into here and saw two horizontal manual drilling machines designed by him himself. Several craftsmen were busy around these two drilling machines. After seeing Xiao Tianjian coming in, these craftsmen immediately stopped their work and quickly came to see Xiao Tianjian's salute.

Xiao Tianjian asked a craftsman here, "Master Qian, how does this drilling machine work? Are you still taking advantage of it?"

The craftsman surnamed Qian dared not do it, and then replied, "It's easy to use, it's easy to use! At the beginning, we couldn't touch the temper of this thing. After using it for a few days, we were a little on the road! This thing is indeed much easier to use than our manual drilling. It turns out that we can drill up to two joint tubes a month. Now with this drilling machine, we can drill out two tubes, which is very useful! Well, in the first few days, Yang Jiangtou asked those carpenters to help us build one. After we build a few more, it will be much easier for us to drill the pipe here! This is not! After the construction and delivery from this drilling machine after the Spring Festival, we have drilled out dozens of tubes, and there are fewer and fewer scrap tubes. The little one is discussing with Yang Jiangtou, two more people, which will be faster!"

Xiao Tianjian looked at the two wooden drilling machines and patted the two drilling machines and said, "After all, the life of this wood is still limited, and the more it is used, the more convenient it will be. It's better to use raw iron casting later, and drive it by hydraulic power, so that the drilled pipe will be of better. ! As for the wood, it's okay if it's no longer made! After all, human drive can't provide stable power, so it won't be easy to use! What do you think of Yang Dajiang?

Yang Changshou nodded and said yes, and hurriedly said, "This wooden drilling machine can be used now. General, please take a look at this second drilling machine. The powerful parts in these places, as well as the rotating shafts and the small ones here have been replaced with bronze. In this way, it is much more durable. I'm calling for another set. The wooden parts of the first drill ** are also replaced, which makes it much more durable! As for the general, if he gets us a hydraulic drilling machine, then we really want to thank the general! We can't wait to use the water truck to work for us! Ha ha!"

Xiao Tianjian leaned down and took a closer look. It was true that the second drilling machine was different from the first one. Many of the parts that were subjected to force had been replaced by Yang Changshou and others with iron or bronze. In this way, the durability was much better, and it was not easy to measure. Not only that, but also some designs were also used by craftsmen. The changes have been made, which makes this drilling machine easier to use. I can't help but admire the wisdom of these craftsmen. Many things don't need him to think about. These craftsmen themselves can also come up with improvement measures and directly change his design a lot. It seems that the wisdom of the ancients is also not despised by future generations, so they laugh. He said, "Well changed! After this change, some of the original problems in the drilling machine have been solved a lot, and they are much more durable! OK! All right! Very good! As for the water truck, you don't have to worry about it. I made the first water truck into a water mill, which is specially used for grinding surfaces. As long as the second water truck is well built, it will give you iron, and the water truck will be built below. I'll give it to you later!"

After turning around, Yang Changshou came to their warehouse with Xiao Tianjian, opened a wooden box, and saw the five newly-made birds placed side by side in front of Xiao Tianjian.
