Entertainment: My husband, Reba, was exposed by the Mushroom House

k a look, only to find that the socket was out of power. He couldn’t help but said with some worry, “Is there something wrong with our generator?” This

can’t be done without electricity! It doesn’t matter if the radio can work or not, but don’t they have to continue lighting torches at night?

Xu Jiuguang and Kunkun came to the hydroelectric generator to check the situation, and then discovered the problem.

Because the water flow they use to generate electricity is drawn from the drainage outlet of the fish pond, and the water in the fish pond is drawn from the small waterfall.

This caused a problem. The water flowing out of the drainage outlet was much larger than the water drawn from the small waterfall. This was necessary to ensure power generation.

When the water level in the fish pond is lower than a certain level, there will be very little water flowing out of the drainage outlet. It is necessary to wait for the attracted water to continue to be injected to raise the water level, so that power generation can continue.

The water flow caused by the small waterfall is small and the fish pond area is large. It will take a lot of time to raise the water level of the fish pond.

During this period, their generators were unable to work properly and there was a gap in power generation.

“This won’t work. I’m planning to build a few more electrical appliances. It won’t work if this power generation equipment keeps having problems!”

Xu Jiuguang shook his head and squatted aside to think about solving the problem.

Increasing the flow of water diverted was difficult to do because the waterfall’s flow was only so large and they didn’t have many tools at their disposal.

“Brother Xu, aren’t you pretty awesome? Why don’t you just make a wind turbine?”

Kunkun squatted aside and joked to Xu Jiuguang, “I used to have a friend who made equipment in this area. Why is it so difficult?”

Kunkun was just talking, looking for a topic, but who knew that his words made Xu Jiuguang’s eyes light up.

“Yeah, why didn’t I think of that? We have so much material here, making a wind turbine is not a problem at all!”

Xu Jiuguang slapped his thigh and said immediately, “There is nothing to do anyway, let’s just study it!”

Hearing this , Kunkun was also surprised, and he said casually, was he really planning to make it?

“Well, Brother Kun, please take our two horses and all the bamboo baskets you can use, and go to the mountain to transport some iron ore back.”

Xu Jiuguang arranged a task for Kunkun, and he himself I plan to study the specific production process and so on in the mushroom house, and by the way, I will also implement the soap matter.

“Okay, I get it.”

Kun Kun didn’t have much objection. He took two horses from the fence, took the pickaxes and set off. With the horses as pack transport, it would be much easier for them to transport the ore, and they could do it all at once. You can get hundreds of pieces of ore.

As soon as Kunkun left, Xu Jiuguang also started to work. After last night’s precipitation, the alkaline water had already separated into layers.

Xu Jiuguang first lit a fire and burned oil in a pot, melting part of the lard they stored and turning it into a liquid. Then, after the lard cooled, he poured the upper layer of alkaline water separated from the lye that had been left in the barrel overnight. Into lard.

The next step is the more critical step, add fine salt!

“The function of this step is to use salt to precipitate the soap and also to harden the soap body.”

Then, stir in one direction to cause the mixture in the pot to undergo a saponification reaction.

Stirring is also the most important part of making soap. Uneven stirring will affect the quality of the soap, so be sure to stir the lard and alkaline water evenly.

After the oil is completely stirred into a paste, it can be put into a bamboo tube to shape and left for a period of time to allow the soap to fully solidify.

Chapter 59 Discovery of Antelope

After the soap solidified, Xu Jiuguang split the bamboo tube, demoulded the solidified soap, and cut it into four or five pieces, which were enough to last for a long time.

[Let me go, is there anyone making soap on site? ]

[Okay, from blacksmithing to soap making, I have learned a lot from Xu Shen. After traveling to ancient times, are I still afraid of starving to death? 】

【This soap looks like that, but I don’t know if it’s useful. Let’s do some laundry and see. ]

[Don’t worry, don’t worry, this is just the initial solidification. It will take a few days for the soap to slowly saponify. My family runs a factory~] [I am still more concerned about

how the wind turbine is made~]

Looking at Xu Jiuguang After putting away the soap, everyone’s attention shifted from the soap to the wind turbine.

[I just checked a thousand times and found that it is not difficult to make the blades of a wind turbine, but it does not have an engine rotor! There’s nothing you can do about it, right? ]

[Humph, I have long said that Xu Jiuguang is in trouble. If he hadn’t been lucky enough to pick a generator at the beginning, how would he have called? ]

[Come on, come on, I’ll bet 30 cents that Xu Jiuguang will overturn this time, right? ]

[…]

Xu Jiuguang happened to have a production plan for a simple wind turbine in his mind, which could come in handy.

But there are still many things he needs to do now, such as using mud and weeds to build a larger iron-smelting furnace than before to smelt the ore at once.

If a larger iron-making furnace is needed, then stronger wind power is needed. The wind power of the previously made bellows is too small. Xu Jiuguang plans to make a larger and more perfect one, otherwise the temperature during iron-making cannot be guaranteed.

After the clay stove was hooped, some firewood was added to let it dry quickly, and Xu Jiuguang also took out a remaining piece of wood and started beating it on the open space.

After the carpenter’s skills were upgraded, he also gained more tools and better production techniques. He gestured on the wooden board, used ink lines to position it, and then divided the wooden board into several pieces.

They are side panels, cover panels, bottom panels, sealing panels and front and rear panels. In order to make this bellows long-lasting and taller, Xu Jiuguang also used mortise and tenon technology to connect each panel without using nails.

Mark the edges where each plank needs to be connected, then use a saw to cut along the marks, and then use a chisel to shave off the fins.

Soon, the tenons on the front and rear panels were completed, and Xu Jiuguang began to make the tenons again. He took out the left and right side panels, marked and cut them in the same way.

After several plates were processed, Xu Jiuguang began to make the tie rod and handle. He spliced the made tie rod and handle together, and used a chisel to cut holes in the front and rear plates so that the tie rod could be inserted smoothly.

Then, Xu Jiuguang continued to cut air vents into the front and rear panels, then took a section of bamboo pipe and wooden board, cut out some bamboo nails and made windshield partitions and hanging panels.

Drill small holes in the front and rear panels, install the hanging panels, fix them with bamboo nails, and then assemble the individual panels. In this way, a complete and beautiful bellows has taken shape.

At the air outlet, Xu Jiuguang also added an air outlet tongue so that it could swing at the air outlet. Then he made a tie rod guard and fixed it on the tie rod. Long bamboo nails were inserted into the tail of the tie rod to ensure that the tie rod would not be pulled. out.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Jiuguang dismantled the original bellows, removed the chicken feathers, fixed them on the wind board, and then assembled them.

After installing the air damper, you’re done!
