"Young Master, this is the thin-walled glass bottle that you wanted!"
In the workshop of the Strange Interest Pavilion, Uncle Fu brought over a glass bottle that was spherical at the bottom and cylindrical at the top. The top part of the glass bottle was engraved with threads, which matched with an iron screw cap. When the cap was tight, it could ensure that the air outside the bottle would not enter the bottle.
This was the main body of the light bulb that Li Zexuan wanted!
"Mm! Very good! Faubert, thank you for your hard work! "
Li Zexuan took the spherical glass bottle and looked it up and down, then smiled at Faubert.
"Hehe! It's a piece of cake, no trouble at all! "
Faubert smiled faintly. Speaking of which, the glass manufacturing technology in the workshop had matured, and they could manufacture glass of all shapes and sizes. After hesitating for a moment, Faubert asked, "I wonder what you intend to do with this glass bottle?"
Faubert was convinced by Li Zexuan's various strange ideas. Today, Li Zexuan suddenly took out a blueprint and asked him to help him make such a strange glass bottle. Faubert guessed that Li Zexuan must be up to something new!
Sure enough, Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Faubert, I intend to use this bottle to make a lamp, a lamp that doesn't need oil or wax! It uses electricity to light it up, so I call it an electric lamp! "
That's right, Li Zexuan came over today to make an electric lamp. More than ten days ago, he had promised Mo Huai that when the Ba River Dam in Lantian County was opened, he would make an electric appliance to check if the generator was generating electricity properly, and if the transformer was converting voltage properly!
Now that all the canal construction and water wheel installation work in Lantian County had come to an end, he could not go back on his word. So, after leaving the county office, he went straight to the workshop to make an electric lamp!
"Electric lamp? Wow! Yamachō, you're finally going to make an electric lamp? "
At this moment, Mo Lingwei happened to pass by the corridor. After hearing Li Zexuan's words, she could not help but push the door open and enter, her face full of surprise.
Unlike the old Faubert, Mo Lingwei, who was familiar with physics textbooks, naturally knew what the electric lamp that Li Zexuan mentioned was. Because she knew, she was so excited!
Li Zexuan looked at Mo Lingwei, who had "broken in" the door, and was speechless. He thought to himself, this girl is always so energetic, he did not know when she would become more lady-like!
"Mm! I'm going to make an electric lamp, what? Ink Girl is interested in this electric lamp? "
After a pause, Li Zexuan said.
"Yes! Interested! Of course I'm interested! Previously, I heard from my dad that Yamachō, you were going to make an electric appliance when the generator was running. At that time, I guessed that Yamachō, you were definitely going to make an electric lamp! "
Mo Lingwei nodded excitedly, secretly congratulating herself for her good luck today. She did not miss such a good show.
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Since Ink Girl is interested, stay and help me!"
"Wei Er! Wei Er, where are you? "
At this moment, Yan Shaoning's shout came from the corridor outside the house.
Now that the work at the hydropower station had basically come to an end, the burden on Yan Shaoning's body had become much lighter. Only then could he have time to "wander around" and have time to be intimate with Mo Lingwei!
Mo Lingwei could not help but frown when she heard Yan Shaoning's shout from outside. She snorted a little angrily and did not answer. It seemed that this girl was probably angry with Yan Shaoning!
Faubert was old and experienced. How could he not tell that this "young couple" was quarreling? He shook his head and smiled and said, "Young master, there are still some things to do at the steel mill. If there's nothing here, I'll go over!"
After saying that, he gave Li Zexuan an imperceptible look.
Li Zexuan's heart skipped a beat and he quickly replied, "Oh oh! Faubert, if you have something to do, go ahead! But don't tire yourself out! "
Faubert nodded and pushed the door open.
"Ink Girl, Shaoning is calling you. Why didn't you answer? "
After Faubert left, Li Zexuan looked at Mo Lingwei and asked with a smile.
"Hmph! That block of wood, whoever wants to talk to him can talk to him! I'm not going to talk to him! "
Mo Lingwei lifted her chin and snorted with her nose. She said in a bad mood.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open. Yan Shaoning ran in and went straight to Mo Lingwei. He held the latter's hand and said,
"Wei 'er! I'm wrong! I'm wrong! Can you forgive me? Don't ignore me! "
Li Zexuan hurriedly turned around. 'See no evil, see no evil!' In order to prevent these two from taking a step further and doing something out of line, he quickly coughed twice to indicate his presence.
Mo Lingwei rolled her eyes at Pang Feiji and quickly pulled her hands back. She took two steps back and said, "Hmph! Why are you still looking for me? I don't want to see you again. Go away! Oh, right, how did you know that I'm here? "
How did he know? Faubert must have told him just now!
Li Zexuan couldn't help but curse in his heart. It was said that a woman in love had a negative IQ. If it was in the past, Mo Lingwei would definitely not ask such a stupid question.
Faubert used to be the manager of the Yan Family's workshop. Needless to say, he had a good relationship with Yan Shaoning. When he saw Mo Lingwei and Yan Shaoning quarreling, Faubert couldn't just sit back and do nothing. He said that he had something to do just now, but in fact, he wanted to secretly inform Yan Shaoning!
Needless to say, Faubert had also learned bad things!
"Wei 'er, I … I said something wrong yesterday. I know that I'm wrong. Can you forgive me?"
Yan Shaoning took two steps forward and said to Mo Lingwei bitterly.
"Hmph! Don't you understand what I said? I don't want to see you again. Go away! "
Mo Lingwei's face was cold and she was still unmoved.
"Cough cough! Ink Girl, you guys continue! I'll go next door and be the third wheel! "
As the saying goes, beating is a sign of affection and scolding is a sign of love. Although Mo Lingwei's words meant to keep Mo Lingwei at arm's length, Li Zexuan was an experienced person. How could he not understand that Mo Lingwei was actually full of affection for Yan Shaoning?
Li Zexuan didn't want to stay here and be the third wheel, so he could only go next door and be the third wheel in the laboratory!
"Ah! Yamachō! I'll go too! "
Mo Lingwei heard and quickly chased after him!
"I … I'll go too! Wei 'er, Xiao Xuan, wait for me! "
Yan Shaoning saw and chased after them.
Li Zexuan, who was outside the room, couldn't help but stop in his tracks. He was speechless. He thought to himself, Aren't these two clowns here to cause trouble for me?
"Shaoning, Ink Girl, I can be the third wheel alone. You two don't need to come over and help. Just continue bickering!"
Li Zexuan turned around and looked at the group of "lovebirds". He spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Who … Who's bickering with him? I … I don't even know him! "
Mo Lingwei pouted and said angrily.
Yan Shaoning quickly said, "Xiao Xuan, what are you talking about? Who's bickering? I'm on good terms with Wei 'er! Ah! Wei 'er, I heard that there's an opera troupe in the county. Shall we go and take a look later? "
The son of the Minister of Works, a straightforward and ruthless technical geek, had now become a little bootlicker. It was really hard to fathom the fate of the world!
Li Zexuan shook his head and walked towards the laboratory. He couldn't be bothered with these two anymore!
"Hmph! I'm not going! If you want to go, go by yourself! Ah! Yamachō, wait for me! "
…
"Shaoning, go and make two holes in this bottle cap. I've already drawn the positions of the holes. As for the size of the holes, you can just use the thickness of this screw!"
In the laboratory, Li Zexuan passed the cap of the previous glass bottle and a slender screw rod to Yan Shaoning and instructed him.
The workshop didn't have any lathes now, so the screw had to be polished manually. However, since the dam had been built, Li Zexuan might be able to try making all kinds of hydraulic lathes!
As for electric lathes, it would probably be a long way to go!
"Oh! No problem! I'll get it done right away! "
Yan Shaoning took the bottle cap and screw and replied. Before he left, he turned to Mo Lingwei and said, "Wei 'er, I'm going to the workshop in the front yard. I'll be back in a while!"
"Okay!"
Mo Lingwei replied softly and didn't say anything else.
Speaking of which, the two of them had the same hobby. They both liked to tinker with new things. Once they entered the working state, they would forget about other things. Therefore, Li Zexuan "brought" them here to be third wheels. In another way, it could be said that he was helping Yan Shaoning!
"Ink Girl, please cut a small section of this candle. It should be as thin as a pencil and as long as the joint of a pinky finger!"
Li Zexuan took out a candle and a small knife and handed it over.
"Okay! Yamachō! "
Mo Lingwei didn't understand why Li Zexuan wanted to cut a candle, but she was smart enough not to ask. After all, the answer would come out in no time.
At this time, Li Zexuan wrapped the middle section of the two screw rods with a thin rubber ring. After that, he used a pair of tweezers to hold the screw rods and roasted them over the flame of an alcohol lamp. The rubber ring softened quickly and stuck tightly to the middle section of the screw rods.
After that, he took out a piece of charred bamboo wire and carefully fixed the two ends of the bamboo wire to the lower end of the screw rods with two nuts. At the same time, he bent the bamboo wire into a beautiful arc.
At this time, Yan Shaoning came back from outside.
"Xiaoxuan, here, the bottle cap is done. Do you think it's okay?"
Yan Shaoning handed over the bottle cap and screw rods and said.
Li Zexuan took it and looked at it seriously. He nodded and praised, "Okay! Not bad! The thickness is just right. Looks like Shaoning's skills haven't fallen behind! "
Yan Shaoning said proudly, "Of course! In this workshop, other than Faubert and you, my skills and skills are definitely the best! "
"Tsk! You're boasting shamelessly again! Why don't we have a competition later? "
Mo Lingwei rolled her eyes and attacked him mercilessly.
She could temporarily put aside the conflict between them, but it didn't mean that she could tolerate Yan Shaoning's "boasting"!
"Uh!"
Yan Shaoning immediately became listless. He quickly "remedied" and said, "Haha! I was wrong just now. I should say that other than Faubert, Xiaoxuan, and you, Wei 'er, my skills and skills are the best in the workshop! "
Mo Lingwei snorted. Then, she handed the peeled candle in her hand to Li Zexuan and said, "Yamachō, this is the small candle you wanted. Do you think the size is okay?"
Li Zexuan took it and smiled. "Okay! It's perfect! Thank you, Ink Girl! "
Mo Lingwei glanced at Yan Shaoning proudly and said, "Did you hear that? It's not bad, and it's perfect. Do you … know the difference in your heart? "
She wanted to say, "Do you know the difference in your heart?" but then she felt that it would be rude to say that, so she removed the word!
Ever since Li Zexuan told Cheng Chumo on Arbor Day in March that he would like to plant a tree in your heart on Arbor Day next year, and the name of that tree would be the Force Tree (Tree), this phrase became popular in Yanhuang College. Sometimes, even the teachers in the college would say, "Do you know the difference in your heart?" When Li Zexuan found out about this, he felt very helpless!
Cheng Chumo was even more unlucky. He was often teased by people with this phrase. God knows how many people in the college had planted a tree in his heart. When Yaojin heard about this, she was depressed. She even called Cheng Chumo to the backyard and asked him why so many people wanted to plant a tree in his heart. This made Cheng Chumo feel very awkward! He wished he could give Li Zexuan a good beating!
However, he had to be able to beat Li Zexuan first!
"Uh! I know the difference in my heart. Uh, I know the difference in my heart! "
Yan Shaoning quickly said when he saw Mo Lingwei looking at him.
Li Zexuan sighed. "Alright! Now, everything is ready. The lights will be ready soon! "
Hearing this, Mo Lingwei and Yan Shaoning stopped bickering and turned their attention to Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan put the screw that was connected to the carbonized bamboo wire through the two round holes on the bottle cap. Then, he got some rubber, melted it, and stuck it in the tiny gap between the hole of the bottle cap and the screw. This ensured that the bottle cap would remain sealed after it was placed on the glass bottle and would not leak any air.
After doing all this, he lit the candle and dropped a few drops of melted wax on the bottle cap. Then, he pressed the candle against the few drops of wax to fix it. Then, he held the bottle cap in one hand and the glass bottle in the other. He quickly turned the bottle cap upside down and tightened it. The oxygen in the air in the bottle was quickly depleted. The burning candle was extinguished as well. This proved that there was no more oxygen in the bottle!
Modern light bulbs were filled with inert gas, such as nitrogen, to prevent the filament from oxidizing. Li Zexuan didn't have the conditions to fill it with nitrogen, nor did he have the conditions to empty the air in the light bulb. Therefore, he came up with this simple and convenient method to remove the oxygen in the light bulb. The effect wasn't much different! .
"Yamachō, I understand now! You're doing this to remove the oxygen in order to prevent the carbonized bamboo wire from burning due to the high temperature after it's electrified, right? "
Mo Lingwei was quick-witted. After seeing Li Zexuan's actions, she thought for a while and understood the key point. She couldn't help but be excited.
"Hehe! Ink Girl's intelligence is outstanding. It's admirable! After the carbonized bamboo wire is electrified, it will indeed emit light and heat. I've experimented with this before. However, when the carbonized bamboo wire is electrified in the air, it will quickly burn out. So, let's see if it can continue to emit light for a long time without oxygen! Shaoning, bring some batteries over. We'll test it immediately! "
