"Although it's a bit difficult to build this thing, you should be able to make it..." Qian Su's eyes swept through the single-cylinder steam engine inch by inch, and said very professionally, "The most difficult thing in making this thing is the cylinder and these crankshafts and parts connected to it. These things are not enough by blacksmiths knocking and hitting them alone. You must open the mold and use cast iron method to cast and mold it at one time, and then polish it. The manufacturing bureau has already had a cast iron workshop before. If you want to make this thing, you should open a stove in the cast iron workshop and prepare some tools..."

"Yes, notes, I think so too. Several key parts of this water-lighter must be molded and polished after casting. However, the accuracy needs to be relatively high and it needs to be more careful. Especially the cylinder and the round iron blocks that thrust back and forth inside are somewhat particular. If it is large, it cannot be stuffed in. If it is made small, it is easy to leak air. These round iron blocks and crankshaft connecting rods cannot be made of cast iron, but they need to be made of steel. Other workpieces can be made of brass!" Yan Dechang, as a blacksmith, looked at the unprecedented water-light machine in front of him, and was also a little moved. "Our blacksmith workshop, as long as it is modified, it should be made of too!"

"Dad, if you want to make this steam...water...lighter, you can take Brother Tiezhu to the manufacturing bureau and build it with Uncle Qian and others. The manufacturing bureau is spacious and the cast iron workshop is ready-made, which is convenient!" After a quick speech, Yan Liqiang almost told the steam engine. At this moment, everyone in the yard was acquaintances, and there was no need to keep this kind of thing confidential. Yan Liqiang hoped that more people would know about it, so he could discuss this matter in public.

Qian Su and Yan Dechang looked at each other, and the two nodded. Yan Dechang said, "This...can be, I'll discuss it with your Uncle Qian!"

"I feel this thing should be useful, but for a moment, I haven't figured out what I can do?" Qian Su grabbed his head.

"Hahaha, this thing needs to work, just create some supporting things, such as threshing, grinding rice, pressing oil, and sawing wood. After making this thing, we can first build a mill and sawmill in Liuhe Town. There will be no livestock in the mill. Let's use this water lighter to drive the mill, and the same is true for sawmills..." Yan Liqiang said relaxedly.

"It's convenient to drive the grinder. The easiest way to get a belt or a rotor is to get it, but how can you see the wood of this thing? It's not easy to drive the saw!" Yan Dechang asked in confusion.

"It's easy to saw wood. Of course, ordinary saws are not enough. Just turn the saw blades of the saw wood into a round shape!" Yan Liqiang casually said, "After the invention, this water and lighter will be built at the manufacturing bureau. At the blacksmith workshop in Liuhe Town, you can create something that matches the parallel truck, such as a circular saw blade..."

"Ah, the round saw blade, the round saw blade, why didn't I expect it..." Yan Dechang patted his head heavily.

Not only Yan Dechang, but even the disciples of the Qianji Hall of Lingshan Sect widened their eyes when they heard Yan Liqiang's casual words, and their spirits were shocked. They all thought to themselves that Yan Liqiang was indeed powerful. Just by saying it casually, the water and lighter could be able to saw wood...

"This water and lighter is very useful. In addition to these uses, such as connecting it with a water truck, you can pump water. It can actually be used in the blacksmith workshop. If you can use this thing to make a blacksmith, you can save a lot of manpower, it is fast and good!"

Yan Liqiang's words suddenly opened up the ideas of the people around him, making the craftsmen around him suddenly excited, and began to discuss what this water and lighter could be used for. After all, this thing is indeed convenient. As long as you add water and burn the boiler, you can keep moving. It is greater than human and animal power, and it can last for a long time. It can definitely be used in great use. Moreover, the boiler is not picky about food, and it can burn firewood and coal...

...

From day to night, there were crowds of people in the yard of the Yan family's blacksmith workshop, and countless people came to watch the fun. Later, many people from Liuhe Town who heard the news came over and surrounded the machine and were amazed.

However, the water lighter was placed in the Yan family's blacksmith workshop for a day. The next day, Yan Liqiang took the water lighter, Yan Dechang, Zhou Tiezhu, Wen Zhaolun and a group of people from the Lingshan School to go to the Huanglong County Manufacturing Bureau.

At the Huanglong County Manufacturing Bureau, as soon as the steam engine was put down, Yan Liqiang took Wen Zhaolun and a group of disciples of the Lingshan Sect to visit the production line of the four-wheeled carriage. Even if Wen Zhaolun and Qianjitang disciples claimed to be knowledgeable, the initial scale production line of the four-wheeled carriage in the Manufacturing Bureau still calmed them down. Before this, they almost never thought that producing a four-wheeled carriage could be divided into so many steps and processes, and used this method to produce.

However, Wen Zhaolun and the others did not stay in Huanglong County for many days. After sending the steam engine to Yan Liqiang and helping Yan Liqiang use the reputation of Lingshan Sect to suppress the threat of Feitianmen, Wen Zhaolun and a group of Lingshan Sect disciples completed the mission, and then left Huanglong County and returned to Lingshan Sect with the six four-wheeled carriages that Yan Liqiang gave to Lingshan Sect and a handwritten letter to Zhang Yourong.

In the letter to Zhang Yourong, Yan Liqiang first thanked Zhang Yourong and the Lingshan School for their timely help, and then discussed the role of gears with Zhang Yourong. Finally, he talked about the application prospects of water and lighters, and gave a very high evaluation of Zhang Yourong and Lingshan School who built the first parallel cargo aircraft.

Although he only met Zhang Yourong, Yan Liqiang felt like he had a pen pal who appreciated each other, which was very interesting to see this Lingshan Sect master.

After Wen Zhaolun and the disciples of the Lingshan Sect left Pingxi County, Yan Liqiang started firepower with Yan Dechang and a group of craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau and began to imitate the steam engine with high enthusiasm.

To let the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau and Yan Dechang invent the steam engine, they do not have this ability, but they have a ready-made steam engine as a reference. With the foundation of the Manufacturing Bureau and the abilities of Yan Dechang and others, if they want to imitate it, although it is a bit difficult, those difficulties can be solved, because the materials and craftsmen of the steam engine are not short of, and of course, there is no shortage of money. Moreover, Yan Liqiang is involved, just copy it according to the gourd...

Yan Liqiang returned to Pingxi County with the power of the Great Winning Feitian Gate. The name of the first powerful bow road in the northwest has been confirmed. His whole person is at the peak of his reputation and is famous in the northwest. During the days when he was in the manufacturing bureau, various figures and prayers from all directions flew towards the manufacturing bureau like snowflakes. However, Yan Liqiang refused and refused in the name of retreat. He devoted himself to the manufacturing of the steam engine, because for Yan Liqiang, the significance of building this steam engine was definitely more important than his closing, or in other words, this was another form of retreat.

Decompose, disassemble, measure, draw, mold making, casting, fail, modify, summarize, casting, fail, modify, summarize and improve, and come again...

After a group of people had been working day and night for more than 20 days, when the willow trees outside the manufacturing bureau sprouted new buds and spring quietly came, the first steam engine in the manufacturing bureau was finally successfully imitated. As for the rotary mill and circular saw blades used with this steam engine, these two things were relatively simple. They were already made seven days ago. They tried it with the steam engine sent from Lingshan. The effect was very good. The efficiency of the rotary mill and saw blades is many times higher than that of the traditional ones, and it is not labor-intensive. Now I am staying in the manufacturing bureau, and the mill has started to be used.

Looking at the flywheel that slowly began to rotate stably after ignition, the craftsmen in the manufacturing bureau cheered. Yan Liqiang wiped the coal ash from his face, grinned and said to Qian Su, "The Manufacturing Bureau will have another profitable business in the future. In the future, in addition to the four-wheel carriage manufacturing department, the manufacturing bureau will also have an additional water and lighter manufacturing department..."

Qian Su also laughed, "I'm afraid it will take some time to sell it!"

"As long as it is profitable, you can make money by buying this thing, and the spread of this thing will definitely be faster than a four-wheeled carriage. Someone will come to the manufacturing bureau to queue up to purchase it, and then it won't take long, and as long as there are some powerful forces in other places, they will start to imitate this thing..." Yan Liqiang said confidently.

"That's true!"

"Build two units first, I will give them to someone in two days!"

"Ah, who to send?"

"Lu family!"
Chapter completed!
