Datang all-rounder

Chapter 244

Wang Ke came to look for Li Ke today. The purpose was very clear, that is, to ask Li Ke to arrange someone to go with him to the test field to try the bomb dropped from a high altitude. How high can the hot air balloon be when the bomb explodes? If it is not enough, the bombs used for high-altitude throwing must be specially improved to meet the needs of war.Li Ke has already heard about hot air balloons, but he hasn't seen them yet. Now that he saw Wang Ke coming, he immediately went around Wang Ke's car, wanting to see this hot air balloon that even his father yearns for so much. thing.

After he didn't see what he wanted to see, Li Ke asked disappointedly: "Brother Wang, why didn't you bring anything? Where is the hot air balloon? Quickly take it out and let the younger brother see it." !"

When Wang Ke saw Li Ke circling around his car, he knew what Li Ke was thinking, and he didn't say anything clearly. He just stood aside with a smile on his face and let Li Ke wander around casually. Now seeing Li Ke asking this question, Wang Ke Ke swayed and almost sat on the ground.

My car is not a truck, so how could it hold that thing? I just went to the village to say hello first in the morning, and asked the housekeeper to arrange for people to load the hot air balloon into the car, and then transported it over. I drove a step ahead, probably Now this hot air balloon has not even entered Chang'an City!

This Li Ke is really amazing, he actually let himself take it out for him to have a look, do you think that thing is small enough to put in your trouser pocket?
Seeing the wry smile on Wang Ke's face, Li Ke knew that he had said something wrong, but he still had the cheek to quibble: "Brother Wang, don't be like this, my younger brother has never seen that hot air balloon, why don't you just ask now. Brother Wang doesn't need this expression either."

Wang Ke was really dumbfounded by Li Ke. Li Ke's words were reasonable, but anyone should have thought of this. No matter how small this thing can carry people, it can't be so small. If anything If it can be installed, then this person probably won't be able to stand on it.

Wang Ke shook his head, and didn't bother to explain anything to Li Ke, and walked towards Li Ke's office on his own. Anyway, the hot air balloon arrived in a while, and Li Ke understood what was going on at a glance. It's still chilly here, why don't you hurry into the house to warm up.

Seeing Wang Ke walking in, Li Ke hurriedly followed, still asking about the hot air balloon.

Wang Ke walked into the room, sat down on a chair, and said, "I told you, Your Highness, don't ask any more questions. You'll understand when you get there. Now let me tell you something. It's done, the improvement work of this hot air balloon is more than half successful!"

As soon as Li Ke heard this, he felt a little depressed in his heart. He didn't even see what the current hot air balloon was like, so Wang Ke started thinking about improving things, which really made him unable to catch up!

But for this matter, Li Ke also understands that this matter will fall on his head sooner or later. It is of course the best if he can get it right in one step. If it succeeds, then this existing thing can be considered as a waste.

Li Ke quickly asked: "How to do it? Brother Wang, let me know and see if I can arrange people to prepare immediately."

Wang Ke Yaoyao handed it, and said with some difficulty: "It's not realistic to start it right now. I don't know how to explain this thing now. I don't know if the materials here can be used. We still need to conduct a test first."

When Li Ke heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He really doesn't want to start making this thing before the improvement fails. For him, he still hopes to start after the improvement is finalized, which will be much less Don't bother, let alone regret in the future that something made out of it is useless.

Li Ke has never seen what a hot air balloon looks like, so of course he doesn't understand the materials needed for a hot air balloon. In his opinion, the ones sent to him must be dealing with steel. He is very afraid that according to the current situation Once the hot air balloon made is improved, the things that have been made by oneself will lose a lot of materials.

Li Ke asked with some embarrassment: "Brother Wang, according to your opinion, if you want to produce now, you still have to do it as it is now? If you improve it in the future, wouldn't it be a waste of materials? Now the materials are originally Not much, if it is consumed again, it will be useless!"

Wang Ke didn't understand the meaning of Li Ke's words. He didn't know where Li Ke said the consumable materials came from, so he looked at Li Ke with doubtful eyes, hoping that Wang Ke could give himself a clear explanation.

As soon as Li Ke saw Wang Ke looking at him with such eyes, he knew that Wang Ke didn't understand what he said, so he had to say it again, and he also explained what he wanted to express thoroughly. After realizing it, it turned out that Li Ke thought that the hot air balloon he made was covered with iron lumps all over his body, and he was afraid that he would let him make it according to the current style now, and when all the things he wanted to improve were completed, what he made now would become A pile of scrap iron is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of materials.

After figuring this out, Wang Ke couldn't help laughing, Wang Ke finally stopped laughing and said to Li Ke: "My lord, why would you think like this, don't even think about it, when I was with you That is to say, a stove was made, and you didn’t make other things here, if they were all made of steel, then why didn’t you make other objects here!”

Li Ke was stunned. He used to only think about not wasting materials. He really forgot about this matter. If everything is made of steel, then Wang Ke will definitely hand over everything to himself. It will never be as simple as just a stove.

After Li Ke came to his senses, he quickly asked: "Brother Wang means, if we do it now, there will be no material loss, right? I don't know which part Brother Wang wants to improve. If we do it now, the younger brother will also You can skip that part, wait for Brother Wang to improve the shape, and then make that part of the layout, okay?"

Wang Ke really likes Li Ke's ability to draw inferences from one fact to another. It is simple to talk to smart people, and things can be explained clearly without spending a lot of time on his own. In front of the house, I thought it would be a troublesome thing to explain to Li Ke.

Wang Ke picked up the pen and paper, drew for Li Ke the appearance of the gasifier in his mind, and said to Li Ke: "Look, what I want to improve now is the stove that needs you to make. The furnace used has been changed to this, but the one I’m thinking of now needs to withstand a certain amount of pressure, I wonder if the steel produced now can be used?”

Li Ke supported the edge of the table with both hands, silently looking at the blueprint drawn by Wang Ke, until he finished reading all the exploded structure diagrams, and then said: "I don't know how much pressure this thing will bear. There are large artillery pieces. Is the shooting stressful?"

Wang Ke was stunned. I really didn't know this question. I didn't know how much pressure was generated when the artillery was fired. You can see how much pressure the air has reached. There is no such thing in this era, and I don’t know how to do it myself. It seems that I can only cross the river by feeling the stones and slowly moving forward.

Wang Ke still has an impression of that gasifier now. Although the size is not accurate, the size is still known. Wang Ke marked the size on the paper while recalling, put down the pen and said to Li Ke: "The specific pressure I don’t know how big it is, but we can try it, as long as we make it and try it a few times, we will know if it works. Let’s make this first.”

Li Ke picked up the blueprint, looked at it again, and said, "Brother Wang, what's the truth in this, you'd better explain it to my younger brother, so that I can understand what's going on here!"

Wang Ke never thought of keeping secrets from Li Ke, but he was lazy, and Li Ke would not talk about it unless Li Ke asked him. Now that Li Ke asked, Wang Ke also told Li Ke in detail.

After Wang Ke finished speaking, Li Ke looked at Wang Ke with a pair of doubtful eyes and asked: "Brother Wang, I understand everything you said, but I don't understand one thing, that is, how can I inject this air into it?" Woolen cloth?"

Only then did Wang Ke realize that he had only drawn a gasifier, and the gas pump hadn't been drawn yet, so he quickly picked up the pen again, drew the appearance of the gas pump and the disassembled structure diagram on the paper, and then asked Li Ke in detail. After explaining it again, Li Ke listened to Wang Ke's explanation seriously, his head a little bit like a chicken pecking at rice.

Seeing that Li Ke understood everything, Wang Ke said: "Now this thing can be made according to the blueprint I drew and tested to see if it can withstand the pressure. If it can, it means that the steel produced now It can be used, if it doesn’t work, we have to speed up the development, or wait until the hot air balloon is made, there is no matching, but it can only be used as a decoration with no practical value!”

Li Ke also felt the seriousness of this matter. He also understood that for hot air balloons, without this gasifier, it means that people have no heart and cannot fly to the sky. If they continue to use coal-burning stoves, it must be Is there any inconvenience, otherwise Wang Ke wouldn't be in such a hurry to change the original design!

Seeing that the hot air balloon hadn't been delivered yet, Wang Ke urged Li Ke to send the blueprint to the craftsmen as soon as he was free, and explain to the craftsmen the things that need to be paid attention to during the production process, so as not to waste time It will be troublesome to make it look like a four-dimensional image.

Li Ke glanced at Wang Ke contemptuously and said, "Brother Wang, I think you are used to running by yourself, and you have to do everything by yourself! You just sit here today, why don't you just call them?"

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to find one of the ropes hanging on the wall behind him, and then he heard footsteps outside the door, a soldier came in, saluted Li Ke and Wang Ke and asked : "What orders does Your Highness have?"

Li Ke sat lazily on the chair and said, "Go, call Zhang Qide to me."

After the soldier saluted and turned to leave, Wang Ke stared at Li Ke with wide eyes, speechless for a while.

When Wang Ke came in just now, he saw these ropes. Wang Ke didn't know what they were for. Now that he saw Li Ke using them, he realized that this was Li Ke's summoning bell. He sat here, If you want to find anyone outside the house, you can pull which rope, probably because the soldiers outside have different divisions of labor, pull that rope, and the soldier corresponding to which piece of messenger craftsman will come in to listen to Li Ke's orders, and then go It has to be said that it is a good way to convey Li Ke's orders to the craftsmen working in the area he is in charge of, and it also saves Li Ke from yelling loudly while sitting in the house, which can only be heard by the soldiers outside the house.

Wang Ke confirmed his estimate to Li Ke, and he had to know Li Ke more in his heart. The methods this kid came up with have to be said to be quite effective!
After a while, the craftsman Li Ke called Zhang Qide came to Li Ke and Wang Ke. Wang Ke handed the drawings to him, explained his requirements in detail, and explained to Zhang Qide that during the production process A few requirements to pay attention to. After confirming that Zhang Qide understood what was going on, Wang Ke sat back in his seat and listened to Li Ke's final summary statement to Zhang Qide.

Just when Li Ke was about to finish speaking, a soldier ran out of breath and reported that several people were driving two ox carts outside the gate. I didn't dare to let them in without permission, so I came here to report.

As soon as Li Ke heard this, he quickly sent Zhang Qide away with a few words, and rushed towards the gate with Wang Ke.
