Chapter 833： windmill

  Chapter 833 Windmill Mill

On July 24th of the fourth year of Tianxuan, it has been five days since Su Yan returned to the Duchy of Tassels. On the main continent, the Duchy of Tassels and the six major kingdoms have been controlled by the Holy Land of Yicheng Territory. The military factories are also producing at full capacity. Yicheng Territory There are many wars, and the consumption of strategic materials is relatively huge.

It was also a while before Xuande returned to the holy land of Jidao. During this time, Xuande not only drove the countless military factories in Jidao to the ground, but also kept going back and forth between Gandao and Liandao. After all, these two islands are the basic islands of industrialization. There are relatively more military factories on the positioned islands.

To meet the needs of the navy to harass the coast of the Marquis of Jili, it means that all the military factories in Yicheng Territory, no matter the holy land or the main mainland, must operate at full capacity, which may not be able to meet the naval fleet's consumption of ship-borne ballista arrows. .

  However, Qu Mao didn't follow Xuande to jump around like crazy. Instead, he set off from Yidao in a leisurely manner and went to outlying islands through the No. 1 purple light trail.

  After exiting the entrance and exit of the underground passage from the north of the outlying island to the town, Qu Mao turned to walk towards the dam of the Lihe Reservoir.

  About two hours ago, Qu Mao received a remote communication from Liu Qianhui, saying that Kong Ming had built a model of a windmill and asked Qu Mao to visit it.

   Qu Mao opened the cheating system, but did not see any information about the rewards of cheating points, so Qu Mao thought it was a wonder, and decided to go to the outlying island to see for himself.

  Just turning on the road to the Lihe Dam, Qu Mao saw a four-leaf windmill slowly turning on the Lihe Reservoir Dam from a long distance away.

  From a distance, the height of the blades of this windmill is about 9 meters. When the construction technology in Yicheng territory can only build five-storey buildings, the 9-meter-high windmill mill is considered a spectacle.

   Qu Mao looked from a distance, and there were crowds of people on the dam of the Lihe Reservoir, and there were residents everywhere who came to watch the excitement.

   Walking up to the water retention dam of the Lihe Reservoir, the residents who watched the excitement saw Qu Mao coming, and quickly gave way to a passage.

  Only then did Qu Mao see it more clearly. The entire windmill has a stone base with a wooden impeller on top. The base and mill are only about 7 meters high, but the windmill’s wooden impeller is about two meters long and ten centimeters wide.

Now the wind on the dam of the Lihe Reservoir is not strong, but the impeller is slowly rotating, driving the transmission shaft, and a stone grinding disc outside the base is rotating slowly, and the wheat passes through the feeding port at the upper end of the grinding disc Once inside, it falls out in the form of flour from around the millstone.

  The water-blocking dam was crowded with people, and the residents watching the excitement were amazed.

  Kong Ming and Liu Qianhui saw Qu Mao coming, so they hurried over to salute and say hello.

   Turning his head and pointing to the windmill, Kong Ming said triumphantly, "My lord, what do you think? You have come here in person in less than two hours since the subordinate notified you."

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Well, it's very good, I'm very satisfied. The wind today is actually not strong, but I can see that the impeller is still rotating. This wind can grind wheat. If the wind is stronger, it can be used as industrial power."

  Kong Ming nodded and said: "My lord, I feel that the mechanical principle of this thing is actually not complicated.

  The reason why the subordinates were able to build the model so quickly was mainly because of the use of water-powered transmission facilities.

It's just that the hydrodynamic facility is that the water flow hits the impeller to form the power of rotation, which is then transmitted, but this thing is driven by the wind to blow the impeller, thereby forming the power of rotation. In fact, as long as the power is transmitted, it can completely replace the water power. . "

   Qu Mao looked at Kong Ming suspiciously. Kong Ming dared to brag about something that the cheating system has not yet recognized.

  Kong Ming continued: "My lord, under the premise of zero foundation, it only took less than 20 days to realize your vision, because the internal structure is similar to water power."

At this time, the yellow font of the cheating system appeared on Qu Mao's retina again. The cheating system not only rewarded Qu Mao with a large amount of cheating value for the model of the windmill mill, but also digitized the model. A windmill construction blueprint was generated for Qu Mao.

   The cheating system has not generated construction drawings or construction drawings for Qu Mao for a long time, so that Qu Mao even forgot that the cheating system has this function.

  Thinking of this, Qu Mao directly smashed the generated construction blueprint of the windmill mill into the territory building panel, and said to Kong Ming: "Kong Ming, you have worked hard, and you are really talented in machinery.

   Let’s do it this way, the Institute of Hydrodynamics will be renamed the Institute of Power in the future, and some other power facilities in the future can basically follow this idea.

  Kong Ming, I think the researchers of the windmill mill and hydrodynamic facilities should write the principles into textbooks as soon as possible and send them to the five universities on Zhidao for students to learn. "

  Kong Ming said with a smile: "It's all the whimsy of the adults..."

  Liu Qianhui interrupted dissatisfiedly: "Grandma, Qu Mao, my mother has been busy with Kong Ming for more than 20 days on an outlying island. This model of the windmill mill has contributed a lot. Why don't you praise my mother?"

   Qu Mao looked back at Liu Qianhui and said, "Liu Qianhui, you have worked hard too."

  Liu Qianhui curled her lips, and said dissatisfiedly: "Grandma, you're so frankly perfunctory."

  Kong Ming burst into laughter, and the surrounding residents also wanted to laugh but dared not.

Qu Mao turned around and said to the residents: "Let's go away, there is nothing to see. In the future, more mills will be built in the Holy Land to help residents grind wheat and rice. What a novelty, it can only help everyone , can play a real role, otherwise it is just a decoration.”

  The residents who were watching immediately cheered.

Of course, Qu Mao did not forget that there are already construction drawings of windmill mills on the construction panel of Yicheng territory. Dang even took out the magic communication crystal and contacted Su Qiaoer to ask Su Qiaoer to build a large number of windmill mills in Liandao and Kongdao as soon as possible. .

  In the past, rice husking in Yicheng territory was basically done manually by residents, and the efficiency was not even as good as the harvesting efficiency of the lord's hut's own arable land. With the windmill mill, the efficiency of rice husking is bound to increase greatly.

  Su Qiaoer said in the remote communication that she will arrange this matter immediately, and on each island with arable land, some convenient windmills will be built. After all, the construction cost of a windmill is not high.

  Kong Ming saw that Qu Mao had finished making arrangements, and said, "My lord, now that the windmill mill has come to an end, why don't you go to your subordinate's house for lunch?"

   Qu Mao nodded and said, "Alright, let's go together, Liu Qianhui, and go to Kong Ming's house for dinner."
