In the second laboratory.
After the opening ceremony ended, Qin Xiao strolled to the second laboratory of the Mechanical Engineering Department.
The laboratory was called a laboratory, but it was actually a huge factory that covered an area of more than ten acres. It was filled with production lines that were running. They mainly produced 7.92× 57mm Mauser rifle bullets and 9× 19mm Parabellum pistol bullets.
20mm cannon shells, 105mm, 155mm howitzer shells, and mortar shells could also be produced.
The G43 and MG42 machine guns provided by the system fired 7.92mm Mauser bullets, while the MP40 submachine gun Browning M1935 used 9mm Parabellum pistol bullets. This solved the logistical pressure very well.
Out of the 27000 new students, 18100 were transferred to the Military Division, while the remaining 8900 were transferred to the Military Division. The 296 military teachers sent by the system were in charge of teaching them on the spot.
In the past two years, the teachers and students of the Mechanical Engineering Department had been developing new machines and equipment. For example, most of the machines in this laboratory were basically from the hundreds of teachers and students of the Mechanical Engineering Department.
Qin Xiao had previously asked the teachers to focus on heavy industry and military industry, especially the assembly line of machines that produced weapons and ammunition.
The first laboratory mainly developed large-scale equipment such as smelting, power generation, industrial mother machines, ten-thousand-ton hydraulic presses, industrial forging dies, and so on.
The second laboratory was the assembly line of weapons and ammunition production machines, which produced many machines and equipment that were more than ten years ahead of the world.
Now, the Military Branch had taken over the second laboratory. Under the operation of a group of teachers with top engineers, they had been adjusting the machinery and equipment overnight. The raw materials were also sufficient, and they could already produce ammunition this morning.
"Principal, the G43 semi-automatic rifle, MG42 general machine gun, and MP40 submachine gun are not precision weapons. I've studied them and have drawn the design drawings, but the materials are not enough.”
"As long as we have the materials, mass production is not a problem. The teachers in the Mechanical Engineering Department are very good. The machines they developed have good performance, high efficiency, and save electricity. Many gun parts can be produced using metal stamping technology. Not only do they save materials and labor, but they are also more compact.”
As soon as Qin Xiao walked into the laboratory workshop, Liang Zhongtian, the dean of the Military Branch, walked over with a pile of design drawings and rattled off.
Metal stamping technology!
When Qin Xiao heard these words, he asked in surprise,""Dean Liang, you've already mastered the metal stamping technique?”
"Principal, this isn't some high-end technology. Many teachers in the Military Branch have studied it.”
“……”
Awesome! I was too shallow.
Qin Xiao knew how awesome this metal stamping technology was. The famous MG42. Even in future world wars, most of the German weapons used very mature metal stamping technology, which saved time and materials.
For example, the MG34's production process used mechanical processing. A piece of solid metal was processed using a lathes, a milling machine, etc., and the unnecessary parts were cut off. The metal utilization rate was only about 25%. It was not only a waste of materials, but also a lot of man-hours. It was not worth it.
It was much simpler to use metal stamping technology. The machine would stamp the parts into shape and the workers would assemble them. It was simple and crude.
" Don't worry about the materials. I ordered 20,000 tons of steel from Yingjian. It should arrive in Donghai tomorrow. The steel factory of the Department of Metallic Engineering will be reworked to produce an alloy with better performance.”
" It's not a problem to produce cannons, right?"
Liang Zhongtian shook his head." It's not a problem. The Mechanical Engineering Department has machines and equipment in their laboratory, the Metal Engineering Department has materials, and our Military Branch has the technology. Making cannons is a piece of cake. We can even make airplanes.”
Alright, knowledge is power. You are all big shots!
Qin Xiao smacked his lips and prepared to go back and study hard.
The teachers under him were all very talented and knowledgeable. If he, as the principal, was too lazy, he would lose face.
"I'm going to get busy. If there's anything, look for the three vice-principals and try to produce as much ammunition as possible before the 28th. Also, prepare some anti-air weapons, such as those 20mm cannons.”
Liang Zhong Tian adjusted his glasses and spread his hands.
"It's still the same thing. Everything else is not a problem. Materials, we need materials!”
"Got it, got it. Make a list and I'll send someone to buy it immediately.”
……
He left the second laboratory and returned to the principal's office as if he was escaping. Qin Xiao had just sat down for a few minutes and his butt had not even warmed up when he heard a knock on the door.
Dong dong dong ~
"Enter!"
The door was pushed open, and a woman walked in. Her eyebrows were like jade feathers, her muscles were like white snow, her waist was slender, and her teeth were like shells.
Qin Xiao's eyes could not move away. He sighed in his heart. The elegant woman was indeed like a beautiful painting.
Lin Wei, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, one of the three wealthy merchants of Donghai, was three years older than Qin Xiao.
The Lin family and the Qin family were also family friends and had a good relationship.
After Qin Xiao's father passed away, Qin Xiao went crazy and sold the family assets passed down from his ancestors to build a floral technical college. The current head of the Lin family, Lin Hui, was also extremely disappointed and often came over to persuade him.
However, Qin Xiao was unmoved and still did as he pleased.
However, Lin Hui's youngest daughter, Lin Wei, was different. She supported Qin Xiao's development of education and even lent a helping hand to the floral technical college when it was in its most difficult time. She also helped to pull strings after the economic crisis in the West broke out and helped Qin Xiao buy a lot of machinery and equipment. She even bought the crucial industrial mother machine, which allowed the Mechanical Engineering Department to have the ability to produce its own machinery and equipment.
Other than these, Lin Wei had also persuaded Lin Hui to help purchase steel, rubber, and other resources.
It could be said that without Lin Wei's unreserved support, the floral technical college could not have developed so comprehensively.
"Sister Lin, why are you here?"
"Sis? Am I very old?"
Lin Wei sat on the sofa, lifted her skirt, and elegantly crossed her legs.
"Not old!"
Qin Xiao got up and poured a glass of water in front of her. He asked curiously,"Wei Wei, what's the matter?"
Lin Wei smiled when she heard Qin Xiao call her "Weiwei" intimately.
"Yes, I heard that you've started recruiting rich kids? He even recruited Su Qin into the school?”
"Yes, the school urgently needs money, and I have no choice!”
Lin Wei sized up this tall, handsome, and magical business partner and good friend. She had been in contact with him for two to three years, but she still could not see through his plans at all.
"Aren't you afraid that those greedy people will interfere with the flower technical college?”
