Chapter 2059: The Airship Soaring in the Sky
...
The number of supplies and items that need to be carried can be said to be very large.
Although there were quite a few people in the Lu Mansion, the items they carried were not too little even if they were distributed equally to each person.
What's more, although it is a relocation, not everyone will go to Chang'an, even though the vast majority of people are essentially bound to the Lu Mansion.
However, in this situation, not everyone will be brought to Chang'an. Instead, only a very small number of people can go to Chang'an.
The reason is very simple. The vast majority of the personnel are only assisting in production and auxiliary work, including some technical and medical personnel.
Because there were no compulsory constraints and due to the characteristics of the times, if these people were really brought to Chang'an, the chances of them being poached would be extremely high.
Rather than being sent to someone else and becoming their dowry, it is better to stay where you are.
If the final result doesn't change, having others come to your door from afar is better than delivering yourself to them, as it can better reflect the other person's sincerity.
"With so many things, how are we going to get to Chang'an?" Si Niang rubbed her eyes, looked at the items piled up in front of her, and fell into deep thought.
I stay in the Lu Mansion every day, and I never thought that there are so many things in the Lu Mansion. I don’t have to worry about ordinary furniture, and it is definitely impossible to take it away.
After arriving in Chang'an, you can buy it if you don't have it. If you can't buy it, you can rely on the technical staff in the mansion to get the corresponding furniture, so there is no need to carry these things with you.
But even if you remove daily necessities and furniture and the like, the remaining things placed in the yard form one wall after another, as if people could get lost in it.
"Since there are so many things, we can only go there by carriage..." Lu Yu looked at the inventory of supplies in his hand, roughly calculated the number of cargo carriages needed, and how to distinguish them, and left corresponding margins.
"Hey, are we actually taking a carriage?" Hearing this matter-of-fact way, Si Niang puffed up her cheeks and shook her head involuntarily, looking a little lost.
"Isn't a carriage great? It's stable and can travel long distances. Most importantly, isn't it safe?" Seeing Si Niang like this, Liu Tong couldn't help but poke Si Niang's face and spoke in a rather gentle tone.
The so-called fatigue from long journeys has basically been eliminated when it comes to treating the young people of this world.
Apart from the long delay and the possible personal disgust, the situation has basically been greatly improved.
The reason for this is that the current version of the carriage has been changed to a great extent.
Not only did the two wheels become four wheels, greatly increasing the internal area of the carriage, but there were also buffers on the wheels to reduce the shaking caused by the movement of the carriage. The overall structural recoil springs could also greatly reduce the bumpy effect.
In addition, the silk fabrics inside the carriage can absorb the kinetic energy of the shaking to a great extent. Coupled with the increasingly outrageous physical fitness of young people in this era, the damage caused by traveling by boat and carriage has been greatly reduced.
Therefore, even some elderly people or people with weak physical fitness will not kill themselves due to the fatigue of traveling, unless the road infrastructure is very poorly built.
"Can't we take that one?" Si Niang pointed to the completely different hot air balloon in the sky and said curiously, "Not only is it huge in size and has a huge cargo capacity, but it can also fly in the sky, stable and fast..." Following the direction of Si Niang's finger, Liu Tong saw the huge object in the sky and fell silent.
Theoretically, this thing, which is similar to an airship, should not appear in this world. At least according to normal industrial basic science, the difficulty of its appearance is extremely high.
This thing is different from a hot air balloon. A hot air balloon relies on the principle of burning air to fly into the air, and as long as the flame does not go out, it can stay in the air without falling.
However, airships are completely different. They rely on buoyancy to rise and fall.
In other words, the airship is like a submarine in the ocean. Its own buoyancy is higher than the surrounding air, so it can naturally rise, and vice versa.
The power of flight and the mechanism for controlling direction belong to another system, a system that is still unexplored at the current industrial level.
In other words, theoretically speaking, something like an airship cannot be built under the current technology tree and physics system.
However, in reality, this thing was built, so much so that Liu Tong was surprised when he saw it for the first time.
Because the help she provided in this regard was really not much, and she didn't even know there was a plan to build such a thing.
There might be reasons of negligence and lack of attention, but the main reason was that, for this era, it was the most surprising thing that the airship could be built, especially without her help in propulsion.
With surprise and emotion in his heart, Liu Tong naturally wanted to understand the process, as well as the experimental results and relevant data.
No matter what, being able to make this thing fly in the sky proves that the people in the R&D department have put in enough effort and hard work.
At least this was what Liu Tong thought in his heart before getting the real results, but after learning about the results and process of the experiment.
Liu Tong remained silent and gave a very simple evaluation of the constructed airship - great effort brings about miracles.
That’s right, people of this era did not overcome the difficulties in the physics of conventional airships, but instead used the special technology of this era to allow the airship to successfully fly and soar into the sky.
The most difficult part of the airship experiment is to make the gas inside the airship smaller than the outside air within the same volume and mass range so that the buoyancy effect can be exerted and the entire airship can float.
And this mass must be able to float after deducting the weight of the airship itself, so the weight of the air inside is naturally needless to say.
This is also the reason why Liu Tong gave up that idea at the beginning.
When it comes to the separation of air and the ability to ensure that the air does not escape, the initial requirements are indeed a bit high.
It’s not that it can’t be done, but it takes a lot of time and the cost-effectiveness is not high... (End of this chapter)
