"Feng Zi, you just said that steam can steam eggs. I believe, after all, everyone can see, but you said that steam can drive a ship? How can you make everyone believe it?"
Chumo looks at Zhang Feng suspiciously.
Zhang Feng seemed to have guessed this reaction for a long time and smiled faintly: "I knew you didn't believe it, but it doesn't matter. When the parts come back and are assembled, I'll see it, which will make you refreshing."
As soon as the voice fell, a worker ran over and said something in Chumo's ear.
Chumo looks happy and turns to Zhang Feng: "Fengzi, things have come back. Can you install them now?"
Zhang Feng didn't expect that the alchinnon was so fast, but since it was made, it was naturally a good thing. He smiled: "of course, let's go and have a look."
When they came to the door of the textile factory, they saw that there were a lot of metal products stacked here, and the styles were also strange. It was the parts drawn by Zhang Feng on the drawing just now.
Zhang Feng picked up a part and looked at it. He confirmed that there was no problem. He turned to Chumo and others: "you all come to help and prepare for assembly."
Chumo and others are naturally happy. They have been waiting for this moment for a long time. One person holds up a part and looks at Zhang Feng.
"The part in iron bull's hand is the bottom. Just put it on the ground."
"Insect, the cylinder in your hand is installed on the base. Remember to install it tightly, otherwise the steam will leak out."
"When big cake installs the piston on the cylinder, it should also be installed tightly. If it is not easy to install, pour some oil on it. Any oil can be used, which can play the role of lubrication."
Zhang Feng took the parts in his hand, explained to the people and commanded them.
Although Chumo is clumsy, he has spent so long in the manufacturing plant and is familiar with all kinds of machinery. Soon he assembled the parts of the steam engine.
Zhang Feng looked at the steam engine in front of him and nodded with satisfaction: "now this steam engine is a preliminary model. You have to experiment. Iron cow, you find someone to get some water."
Chumo nodded and left. After a while, he came with a worker with two buckets of water in his hand.
"Pour water into the boiler."
Zhang Feng commanded the worker and then looked at Chang sun Chong and others: "go find some dry firewood and boil water soon."
It was better to use coal, but now it is outdoors. There is no need to waste coal. Besides, it is not suitable to use coal now.
Chang sun Chong and others naturally didn't know this, so they turned and went to prepare dry firewood.
When they came back, the boiler was full of water.
Zhang Feng glanced at the crowd and said solemnly, "start to burn a fire."
Chang sun Chong and others had their previous experience. It was not difficult to burn a fire now. They lit the fire in less than a long time. The fire burned more and more, and the water in the boiler began to ring slowly.
Soon, the water in the boiler began to boil and make a buzzing sound. The lid on the boiler was also high. The steam kept coming from the piston outlet, blowing the surrounding leaves away.
"Feng Zi, is this a success?"
Chumo looks at Zhang Feng and asks excitedly.
"Half the success."
Zhang Feng looked at the steam engine and replied faintly.
Chumo's high spirits suddenly fell to the bottom.
After working so hard for so long, only half of it was successful?
This half alone is very tiring. Isn't the other half more tiring?
He looked at Zhang Feng with a wry smile: "Feng Zi, how do you get the other half?"
Zhang Feng glanced at the crowd and said faintly, "the next step is to install the steam engine on the things that need to be installed, such as ships, cars, etc., and continue to research, develop and manufacture. This time, the steam engine is only a small-scale one, which is installed on the car at most. You should continue to make some large ones, which should at least be installed on the ship."
"Installed on board?"
Chumo looks confused.
He thought this guy was joking, but now it doesn't seem to be at all. This guy just wants to install the steam engine on the ship.
You know, the smallest ships at this time are those fishing boats. There are passenger ships and warships when they are bigger.
If Fengzi is going to install this thing on the fishing boat, it's easy to say that it can be done by just a few people. If it is installed on other ships, it will be troublesome. After all, the steam engine is a new thing and no one has installed it. Moreover, there is no spare space on ordinary ships. Where can we put such a large steam engine?
After thinking about it, he looked at Zhang Feng with an embarrassed face: "Fengzi, you just said to install this thing on the ship, but where is there such a big thing on the ship? Besides, no one has seen this thing before. Who will install it?"
