Therefore, they did not expect that a carpenter who was only a craftsman could be so familiar with the various parts of the car.
Zheng Quchi stood up and naturally asked, "Could you show me your drawings?"
"You can even read blueprints?" Mu Gaoyi asked curiously.
"Um."
Mu Gaoyi wanted to say something, but Shi Hetong stopped him and gave him a wink.
You think he's just an ordinary person? Maybe he comes from a powerful or wealthy family. He's learning carpentry out of interest. If his family is rich and influential, sending him to a professional institution like Jixia Academy for training wouldn't be surprising if he could understand it.
Shi Hetong took the rolled-up blueprints and handed them over: "If you're interested, you can take a look first, but our designs are rather unconventional and quite different from what's taught in traditional academies. If you can't understand them..."
Zheng Quchi took it, unfolded it, and took a look.
Simple.
There were only ideas, no specific benchmarks, no theoretical data, and even the dimensions were only rough estimates.
Doing so would greatly reduce the efficiency of post-production.
Perhaps because they were novices, making a car for the first time, they referenced other people's cars to obtain these seemingly plausible but ultimately flawed data. Moreover, they wanted to create a different and innovative car, which resulted in a product that was made, explored, and failed repeatedly.
Today's craftsmen are basically following this path. Unlike Zheng Quchi, they have integrated and absorbed the "essence" of nearly a thousand years of survival of the fittest. She stands on the shoulders of giants.
Her knowledge is a complete system, which is something that is unimaginable for people who are still exploring.
"The vehicle you're going to make is a horse-drawn carriage with a canopy?"
"yes."
"You want to thin the wheels so they won't get muddy when driving on dirt roads?"
These were the technical points they were considering, and she... she saw them right away?!
"But you only considered one possibility and ignored another. The teeth are easy to wear during driving, but what if the teeth on both sides of the hole are worn down, causing the spokes to loosen?"
"Furthermore, the depth of the mortise is very important. If it is too shallow, the spokes will wobble and loosen when assembling; if it is too deep, the spokes will easily break..."
After her expert questioning and explanation, they were still confused, but precisely because they didn't understand, they felt embarrassed and their faces turned red and blue.
"Ah Qing, what you're saying, is it something you heard from someone else, or just nonsense?" Mu Gaoyi said, somewhat embarrassed and angry.
At this moment, the two men were undoubtedly feeling lost, dejected, and ashamed. At the same time, they were also shocked by how well Aqing described the car manufacturing project. Even if it was nonsense, it was still a profound and utterly unbelievable story.
At least, they were genuinely fooled and had no grounds to refute it.
Zheng Quchi raised his eyes: "Why don't you take a look at my chariot blueprints?"
