Chapter 737 On the gift
Although he was mentally prepared, Shen still shocked the numbers given by Lao Ouyang. A machine can drive at least 60 spindles at the same time. If you improve the materials and technology carefully, you can even reach one hundred! And it is running all the time! Moreover, such a machine only needs two people to take care of. While greatly increasing efficiency, it greatly reduces labor costs. It is definitely a revolutionary light.
At that moment, Chen felt that the person standing in front of him was Lu Ban, Mo Di, Newton, and Watt! He really admired him from the bottom of his heart, and he said thousands of words: "You have also traveled through time, right?" "Chuan Yue?" Ouyang Bijin was very honest and said: "I am from Jiangxi.
"You are not a human." Chen Zhi's more excited as he thought about it, hissing, hissing: "You are a genius, an incomparable genius! A god-man who created something out of nothing!" Only those who know the future will understand why he lost his composure.
Ouyang Bijin initially thought Chen would scold him, but later he realized that he was praising him. He said a little embarrassedly: "It's not my credit, first this thing was improved based on the predecessors; then I can't solve many problems without the Thais you brought to you." "Has there been this thing before?" Chen said in surprise. He really didn't know about this, and he had never heard of it. There had been hydraulic spinning machines in the cotton textile industry.
"Hmph, and I have always had it." Ouyang Bijin nodded and said, "With my experience in Yunyang, I started from the books of my predecessors, and wanted to find some ideas... In fact, I had some impressions before, as if I had read a spinning wheel on a book of some books. I searched for a month and finally found it in Wang Zhen's Agricultural Book!" Thinking of the surprise I gave him at that time, Old Ouyang was still a little excited and said: "That was from the Ming Dynasty in the late Southern Song Dynasty, called the Water-Transfer Spinning Wheel! It was equipped with thirty-two spinning wheels, and it was driven by two leather ropes to make the ingots run."
"I thought at that time that if this thing could be restored, the effect would be increased tenfold!" Ouyang Bijin said: "I told the client excitedly, but I was poured with cold water.
The guard took two chairs and brought the coffee table again, asking the two of them to sit and chat slowly. Chen asked, "I think they know this thing, but it can't come in handy."
"Human spirit is human spirit!" Old Ouyang praised the way he was so unique, and nodded and said, "Yes, they told me that this thing actually exists now, but if you use it to spin cotton thread, it will not only be thick and thin, sometimes loose and sometimes tight, but also easily breaking your head, which is useless at all." "Oh, I think you don't believe this roe" so he picked up the teacup and tasted it. He couldn't help but be stunned and said, "What's the taste?" Old Ouyang smiled proudly and said, "Are you used to drinking it?"
"It's so possible." Chen smiled and said with his eyes: "Where did you get cocoa?" He thought that the great voyage really began to affect people's lives, first it was tobacco and then it was cocoa. I don't know what the next surprise was?
"You actually know..." It was Old Ouyang's turn to be surprised. No matter what, he immediately said, "That's right, you Lord Shen have never seen any rare things?" "I really don't care." Chen smiled and stretched out his hand, "If there is extra, please share some of them." He immediately thought of his son and said to them to try it. "It's the one you found to tell me." Ouyang Bijin smiled and said, "He said this is also a rare thing in Taixi." "Let's continue." Chen nodded and tasted a bite of mellow hot cocoa. I really miss this feeling.
Old Ouyang also liked this kind of drink very much. He held the teacup and sipped: "You are right, I don't give up. I thought that since I can spin twine, it means that the basic principle is correct. If I can't spin cotton wire, it should be just a matter of strength, at least it must be a reference."
"So I took me to more than 200 miles away to see the big spinning wheel, which was really shocking," Ouyang Bijin gestured: "It's as big as a mill, with a complex structure and a huge size, but because it is driven by a water wheel, it works quickly and labor-saving. Thirty-two spindles rotate at the same time, and you can spin more than 200 kilograms of yarn in a day."
"It uses a water wheel as power, and uses a transmission belt, pulling spindles and guide frame to complete twisting and winding yarn strips. In order to avoid entanglement between the yarn strips, an equal number of small iron forks were installed in front of the frame, which can be divided into pieces and can also make the yarn strips form a good shape." Speaking of the interest, Ouyang Bijing said with a bright light: "These tools are linked to the guide wheel and the belt, and the belt rotates with the wheel, and the machine moves, up and down, and the speed is appropriate." As he said, he said with admiration: "It is definitely a genius design." "Then why can't you sprinkle cotton-?" Chen asked with a funny look.
"It's mainly because cotton does not have the toughness of linen," Ouyang Bijin replied: "By careful observation, I think that one is because the movement of the transmission belt is not regular enough and cannot guarantee the uniform rotation of the spindle; the other is that there is no mechanism to adjust the rotation, but when cotton spinning is produced, it needs to be adjusted at any time... In this way, the spinned yarn must be sometimes thick and sometimes thin, sometimes loose and sometimes tight, and it is easy to break the head. "Can these defects be overcome?" Although he knew that he had overcome it, he still talked.
"As our current craftsmanship level in the Ming Dynasty, we have overcome it, it just depends on whether you think about it or not, whether the experiment is enough." Ouyang Bijin said proudly: "Since the problem lies in the transmission, then work hard on the transmission. The simplest adjustment problem, I added a spiral adjustment mechanism in addition to the transmission belt, so that people can tighten or relax the belt as needed, so that they can adjust the degree at any time... But later, for various reasons, this was not used."
"As for making the spindle rotate evenly, this is much more difficult, but there is still a way of thinking... Zhang Si of the Song Dynasty "Ming passed an ▲armillary meter that was driven by mercury and automatically reported the time" a hundred years later, and after being improved by Su Song, he created the famous ▲water transport meter platform. It is driven by water trucks, which can observe astronomical phenomena and accurately report the time. This thing is a Beijing Imperial Heaven Supervision. I went to see it back then and I was very impressed." Old Ouyang said with admiration: "So after I encountered a problem, I thought that such a precise meter platform was also driven by water trucks used by the people. However, people can accurately report the time and rotate in synchronization with the sky. This problem must be solved so that it can be done without any difference."
Chen knew that the "water transport metering platform was the core instrument of the Imperial Heavenly Supervision, providing the emperor with the most accurate astronomical observations, astronomical demonstrations and accurate time reporting... Chen once thought that the bell tower was the bright light of Europe, but unexpectedly, China had it in the Song Dynasty, and it was very ashamed.
"It just so happened that there was also one in Nanjing Imperial Heavenly Prison, so I went to watch it with an old face. Fortunately, there was also the book "New Etiquette and Etiquette" written by Su Song in the bookshelf. They were built by this book." Old Ouyang said: "I have completely figured out that the key to even operation is how to eliminate the slack of the transmission connection part. The method our ancestors adopted was to replace the belt with the transmission chain formed by chain links. The chain link can be tightly compatible with the gear teeth on the water wheel, and the entire transmission chain is wrapped around the wheel. This short and tight transmission device perfectly eliminates the slack and achieves evenness.
"Is this a creation?" Chen smiled. He knew that people always have the desire to speak at such times, so of course they would accompany them.
"I thought so too," Ouyang Bijin sighed: "After going back, I took a month to complete the improvement of the water-to-spinning machine. I thought it was the assembly? But the results of the experiment disappointed me... The cotton thread spun out was loose and sparse, and it was not even considered a thread. It can only be called a tampon, which completely failed to meet the requirements." "Why is this?" Chen asked strangely.
"I can't figure it out, and later I hired a spinning master to diagnose it. When people saw it, they smiled and said that this spinning machine can spin wire and raw silk, but it can't spin cotton, because the function of this spinning machine is to tie the wire, twist and then wind it. Those long and tough thread and raw silk can be spun directly with this thread. But the cotton velvet is too short and the pulling force is too small, so the spun cotton thread will be unusable." Ouyang Bijin said: "At that time, they all said there was no way, because the ancestors could not solve this problem, but I was not convinced. Do you have to rely on your ancestors to make everything? This will not make future generations laugh at each other for generations?" "Well said it." Chen praised: "It is wrong to be generous to the past and the present. One generation is stronger than the other. Only in China can we have hope."
"That's the reason." Ouyang Bijin nodded and smiled, "I went to see them spinning, but they found that they twisted and twisted the loose cotton sliver into thread in two ways. One was to pass the cotton sliver through the middle of a frame and wrap it onto the spindle. When the frame was rotated, the cotton sliver was both twisted and stretched. When it was wrapped onto the spindle, it was solid cotton sliver; the other was to use a roller instead of the wooden pole.
He pointed to the popcorn machine and said, "It's such a cylinder. Fill the cotton sliver in it. As long as you pull out the cotton in the barrel, you can use the power of rotation to achieve the effect of twisting and stretching, and make tight strands and wrap it directly on the spindle..." As he said, his hands were combined, he said, "Then connect this thing with the transmission device and it will be successful. But this is not that simple, but with the Thai craftsmen you sent... they have indeed had extraordinary mastery of gears, cranks, and bearings. With their assistance, they finally did it. "How about the final spinning effect?" This is the question Shen Zi is most concerned about. "It's that." Old Ouyang picked it up from the ground →, and the spindle said, "This is what my prototype spins out."
Shen took it and looked at it. It looked thicker than ordinary cotton thread, and digged hard with a lot of salt, which was very tough and strong. I couldn't help but praise: "It's better than hand-spinned."
"The final version has also been designed." Ouyang Bijin said: "Because the belt has been changed to a chain, my spiral adjustment mechanism is useless. Recently, those Thais have tinkered with a set of gear sets, which can be adjusted by changing the size of the transmission gear, so that the thickness of the cotton thread can be controlled."
After listening to Lao Ouyang's story, Shen can be sure that a bright future will be born. Although spinning is only a process in the textile industry, innovation in one process will surely drive innovation in the entire industry. The reason is very simple. Taking the cotton textile industry as an example, this industry is composed of many processes such as processing cotton, spinning, weaving, bleaching, printing, dyeing, etc. The efficiency of one of the processes is greatly improved, which will inevitably increase the demand for output in the upstream village and cause serious loads to the downstream process. This internal technical contradiction will eventually stimulate the upstream and force the downstream to find ways to improve to achieve balance between processes.
As Ma Zi said: 'The change in the production mode of an industrial sector will inevitably lead to the transformation in the production mode of another sector... With machine spinning, there must be machine weaving, and both of which make the bleaching industry, printing industry and dyeing industry have to undergo mechanical and chemical revolutions."
Chen believed that as long as the market demand is maintained and innovation is encouraged and protected, this revolution in the cotton textile industry will sooner or later be born in the Ming Dynasty... It doesn't matter ten years, twenty years, or even one or two hundred years, anyway, it's better than Britain. In fact, he had long wanted to ignite the first fire of this industrial revolution, but people are more conscious. He is really a waste of time in science and engineering, and probably will never be able to make trouble for the rest of his life, so he can only sigh.
But he never expected that Old Ouyang Jing helped him realize this long-cherished wish, how could Chen not be ecstatic? Chen really wanted to sigh to the sky, God has eyes!! However, due to his identity, he tried his best to remain reserved, but tears in his eyes were about to rush out. He confused Old Ou's belly, Qi Shuan said, "What's wrong, you're confused?" "Don't worry about me, I need to be calm." Chen waved his hand, took a deep breath, and walked to the end of the warehouse. Seeing a cabinet, he hurriedly hid behind.
As soon as he left everyone's sight, tears could not stop. He drifted down, and he reached out to wipe it, but he wiped it more and more. He simply flowed happily at once... His expression was extremely complicated, and his fists were clenched tightly and loosened, all of which showed that his heart was mixed at this moment, and he could not speak. 1111▲r,
No one knows what Old Ouyang's flowing water means to him. Although it is just a machine that can't speak, it makes Chen Ruo lose the pain of preparing for war alone. He was an ordinary young man, but by chance, he came here by accident, this terrifying historical fork. Although no one forced him, as a descendant of Yan and Huang, he could not accept it no matter what. His country, which had been the leader for thousands of years, suddenly jumped into cruel darkness. Until five hundred years later, the wound had not completely healed, and it was still difficult to find the road to revival.
Although no one forced him, he had no choice, but he was not the kind of great man who took the world as his responsibility and even millions of people went there. He was essentially just an ordinary person, and he would make mistakes, be sad and weak, and be unable to bear the pain of being able to tell others about secrets; he would even feel desperate because of loneliness.
Yes, although there are many friends around me and countless disciples under him, he is still lonely. This loneliness comes from secrets that cannot be told. He cannot tell others that I came from five hundred years later. Our country will be destroyed for eighty years. It will be enslaved by foreigners for more than two hundred years, and then ravaged by the great powers of the world. Therefore, we have to work together to fight to change this destiny... He is probably sent directly to the imperial physician.
So he couldn't explain, so he could only carry all the heavy burden on his shoulders, keep his head in a silence, stagger, and nervously in the unknown... to do whatever he did. Although he did so much, he had no confidence at all. This road was too far and difficult to walk, so that people could not see hope at all.
It was just because he knew that no matter how he tinkered with it, the fate of the Ming Dynasty would not be worse than before, so he bit the bullet and treated the dead horse as a living horse. But a voice in his heart kept shouting loudly: 'Give up, you can't succeed." This thought was like a ghost, circling in his mind, and sooner or later it would drive him crazy.
Really, compared to despair, what kind of hardship, fatigue, loneliness, pain, is not worth mentioning, one, one, one, one, one
But today I saw the "flowing water spinning machine", and the fire of hope in my heart really started to burn for the first time. Although it was not big, it was enough to warm his body and mind and illuminate his way forward.
Hopefully, even if there is only one point, he will be fearless, he will have a direction, and he can finally throw away the heavy shackles... ●↓---j---j jllj jlllj jlllj jlll division----- llj j jlllj j --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In real life, I keep my promises very much, well, probably. And when I was writing "Power", everyone has seen it, and it is definitely a daily increase of 100,000 yuan, regardless of rain or shine.
But why are you always delaying your votes in this book? Actually, I’ve been no longer busy recently. I’ve been focusing all my energy on this book. I really want to restore my character... Looking at my update time, I know that what I said is true. Basically, it’s impossible to sleep before one or two o’clock, and it’s even two days to three or four o’clock. What’s the problem?
It's very simple. When I escaped from the embrace of history, I control the reins myself. The effort spent on such a large deduction process is beyond my imagination. For example, this time, according to the outline, after the mutiny, I only laid a little in Suzhou, just showing the seeds that have sink into it. What is now what I have grown, and then I went back to Hangzhou. I feel that I have already conceived it clearly, and the plot characters have been arranged, and there is no problem to update 100,000 per day, so I made a harsh statement.
But when I was writing, this seemingly simple little copy of Suzhou caused me a lot of trouble, first philosophy, logic, and then Suzhou's current production relations, as well as the emerging production tools.
To be honest, before I wrote a new chapter, I only had these few keywords in my mind, but to turn it into words, it is like turning cotton into clothes, and there are too many processes to go through.
During the two days of the weekend, I read more than 100,000 philosophical articles so that my mind will not have 8 differences or even fallacies... Everyone must know how complicated this thing is.
Then I finally finished writing and continued... Yesterday I spent a day in the morning to explain the new situation in Suzhou with a story of demolition.
I thought it was OK, right? Who knew that when I arrived at the design institute, I was stunned. What exactly does Xinming look like? It is true that it is a textile machine, but if I really want to write it out, the question arises again. What kind of textile machine? What level of textile industry has reached now and what level of machinery is more reasonable. These things cannot be written without verification.
So I studied it for another day, first understanding the process of the textile industry, the process of the East and the West, then the British textile industry's Ming, and other countries' Ming, and then selecting it. Finally, it becomes a few hundred words, one, one, one, one
An article is also five thousand words, and I can write it in as fast as two and a half hours, but sometimes it takes one or two days, because after a paragraph of winter, I can never predict how much effort it takes to continue writing the next paragraph.
My mother often says, don't be so serious. But I'm not a serious person at all. The number of typos in the articles is proof of it. But even by my standards, I can't stand the random words. I have to be worthy of the money you spend and make myself feel that what I do is not shit... At least, I have to make up for it; I have to do my best to tell every story well.
My colleagues say I am a fool. The recommended income is the clearest, especially now is the best period for promotion. As long as I update more, my daily income will catch up with the usual two or three days. No one can relax during the period of luck and wait for the money to celebrate the New Year!
But when I encounter a pit, I have to fill it in and then go over it. If I go around it, I will cheat people and cheat money! I can't do such a thing, and no matter how many pits I have, I have to fill it out! In fact, there are many people who compete with me like me, but most of them are lost in the interest of no one. It can be said that there are very few people like me who are not as good as aluminum. This is my blessing and my luck. If I don't cherish it, it will be punished by heaven and earth!
Chapter completed!
