Myth: Heaven and Earth

Chapter 145 Physics
Zhu Dachui unfolded a blueprint. On the blueprint, the overall picture of the bicycle was drawn in ink in the middle, and the breakdown structure was next to it.

The pictures are fine and clear, and the structure of the bicycle is clear at a glance on this piece of paper.

This was drawn by Zhu Dachui himself.

The sketches drawn by Lu Heng are much more scribbled and complete than this one.

"The Taoism in your physics book is quite interesting." Zhu Dachui said with a smile: "I used to know what it was but didn't know why. I knew it in my heart. It's like eating and drinking water, but I can't explain the specific reason. Let's give it a shot." The plow, how the plow works and how to save it was passed down from generation to generation, but now I fully understand it.”

He couldn't help saying: "This Xiyi thing is really an eye-opener."

Lu Heng smiled and said: "The truth is hidden between the heaven and the earth. The ancestors realized the truth and made real things, but they didn't make a special summary. Xiyi is only one step faster than us, so don't be too surprised."

The two talked and discussed the drawings.

As far as Lu Heng was concerned, Zhu Dahammer's blueprint had reached his standard.It is only necessary to summarize the production cost and come up with a reasonable production plan, which can be put into practice if it is suitable.

As for further excellence, it is not impossible, but it is not necessary to achieve the ultimate in one go.

After some discussion, Lu Heng asked about the cost of the bicycle.

Zhu Dachui made some calculations, and said, "Only this car frame, excluding the tires, I roughly calculated, the material cost is less than two taels of silver."

Paused: "This is a model, I made it a little more complicated. Some places can be simplified, and the cost can be reduced a lot."

Lu Heng understood and nodded: "If it is mass-produced, the cost can be even lower."

He made some calculations: "The price of a bicycle in Shanghai is more than ten taels of silver. Even with the cost of two taels of silver, there is still a lot of room for profit."

Here it gets more difficult.

I didn't expect Zhu Dahammer to produce results so quickly.The Tao is one year or two years.Unexpectedly, a sample was made within a month.He was thinking about going to Hong Kong Island to open a factory, but now, Ma San is still in Shanghai helping the Shanghai Bund Maternity and Children's Association, not to mention opening a factory, and he has no plans to go to Hong Kong Island yet.

Lu Heng thought about it, maybe this matter, he has to press it again.

Thinking about it, it doesn't seem urgent - after all, the previous plan was also for one or two years.

Said: "Brother Zhu, you break down the craftsmanship of this bicycle, and let your apprentices start to learn the technology of each link. Don't be busy before opening the factory. There is no shadow on Hong Kong Island, so we have to wait for a while. "

Zhu Dachui nodded indifferently: "I don't care if I open the factory or not. I just think this thing is very interesting."

Lu Heng laughed: "Then I'll find you something more interesting."

Zhu Dachui said, "Say it."

Lu Heng said: "Guns, what do Brother Zhu think?"

"Firearms." Zhu Dachui's eyes widened: "You don't want me to make guns, do you?"

Lu Heng smiled and said: "That's what it means. The guns produced locally are backward and of poor quality; the guns from Xiyi are good things. If we can explore a little bit and produce some results, it will be of great benefit to us."

Zhu Dachui listened, thought for a while, and nodded: "That's true."

He smiled again: "Don't say it, I'm really interested in this. But I haven't touched it before, you have to find me some real objects, I want to take a closer look first."

Lu Heng said: "It's simple. I'll send someone to Shanghai and try to make a few more."

Then he laughed: "You blacksmith shop, it seems that you need to expand the scale and recruit more apprentices. Otherwise, you will be too busy."

Zhu Dachui felt helpless: "There are not many suitable blacksmiths in this town."

"Do your best." Lu Hengru said.

For the next few days, Lu Heng stayed in the blacksmith's shop, discussing physics knowledge with Zhu Dachui.

Lu Heng himself is only half a jar of water. He has almost forgotten the physics knowledge he learned in school, and now it is equivalent to picking it up again.

Except for occasionally remembering something that made Zhu Dachui's eyes brighten, other times he was even inferior to Zhu Dachui.

Zhu Dachui has never learned this kind of knowledge, but he is in this line of work, which has absolutely nothing to do with physics.There is no theory, but a lot of experience, often as long as you understand the theory, you will be enlightened all at once.

The blacksmith shop gradually became like a half school.

The apprentices in the shop were also studying and listening while Lu Heng was discussing with Zhu Dachui.Of course Lu Heng wouldn't stop it, on the contrary he liked it.

If a group of folk physics masters can be cultivated, that would be a good thing.

As for going to Shanghai to get guns, Lu Heng had already ordered Shitou to make a trip.When he arrived in Shanghai, he first went to the Shanghai Bund Women's and Children's Association to find Lin Heier and introduce Feng Jingyao.It should not be difficult to get some Xiyi firearms through the Qing Gang's network.

In addition, when Shitou went to Shanghai this time, besides getting back samples of firearms, there was another thing, which was the matter of western medicine that Lu Heng was thinking about.

That is, things like amine yellow and penicillin that I thought of earlier.

This requires some specialized tools, petri dishes, test tubes and the like.Probably you have to go to Shanghai to get it.

Speaking of which, Lu Heng has seen these things before—that night, he killed himself in Shanghai and saw many of them in those nursery halls where babies were mutilated.

With the help of the Yuyingtang, Xiyi used our babies to do experiments, and the test bench was equipped with all kinds of equipment.

But those utensils are stained with the blood and lives of our children, not to mention that the tools have nothing to do with other things. Lu Heng feels that if he uses that kind of utensils, he will not be able to sleep at night, because he will definitely hear the baby crying.

Half a month later, Lu Heng's frequency of going to the blacksmith shop plummeted.

One is the things that can be remembered in the stomach for a while, almost cleaned out, no matter how hard I rack my brains, I can't think of them;

During the half-month stay in the blacksmith shop, the results were remarkable—the copied physics book, which originally had only about [-] pages, was now several times richer in content, and the number of pages had exceeded the [-]-page mark!
This is a remarkable achievement.

Lu Heng dared to say that this physics book must be the first of its kind in China in this era in physics!

Although in Lu Heng's view, there are still many shortcomings.

In this book, I still have a little foundation in terms of mechanics for the time being.There are only a few words about the four categories other than basic physics, force, sound, thermoelectricity, and mechanics.

It's still a long way off.

There is nothing Lu Heng can do by himself. He is not a physicist by background, and that is not what he studied when he went to university.I have the knowledge of physics in middle and high schools, but I have forgotten a few knowledge, so I have no choice.

Fortunately, the foundation has been laid, and more brains will be gathered in the future to fill in slowly.
