Xia Gua silently helped the four gentlemen add tea... The Hidden Sword Hall once again fell into a strange silence. Only the water on the stove was ringing, but the silence seemed more solemn and depressing... I really wanted to talk to the prince and ask someone else to guard the hidden sword. Tang: It’s so difficult to be a slave!
After being silent for half an hour, Yuan Tiangang let out a long sigh and said, "I'm going to find Prince Teng."
Random speculation and research without any direction is really a headache... As the Yunhe Order, Prince Teng was responsible for giving an idea or assigning someone to study those stones.
...Why did a certain person agree with Yun Heling, the director of Jinyang Duke? My brain was kicked by the donkey of Guizhou! The order of Yunhe Mansion must be Prince Teng. No matter who takes the throne in the future, his position cannot be changed... Wait, the members of the royal family are basically weak and weak. If Prince Teng also has countless beauties and concubines, it will definitely affect Yunhe Mansion. matter
...We must think of a way, how to better balance the affairs of beauty and Yunhe Mansion?
"Let's talk about it during dinner." Yuan Tiangang sat down with some dejection. The most important thing at the moment is not to let Prince Teng avoid the affairs of Yunhe Mansion and the five of us.
Du Che blinked his eyes, took out the tortoise shell and shook the coins... and said in surprise: "It turned out to be Jian Gua. Heavy rain poured down on the ground and the sky was full of snow. Travelers on the road were miserable and cold. They were dragging mud and water and wasted their efforts. Things were not going well and they were impatient... etc. Wait, heavy rain pours down on the ground and the sky is full of snow. The countries in the Western Regions are mostly droughts and there is little rain. The North Sea is mostly grassland, which does not meet the requirements of Xiogen Shanghan. Then only Tuyuhun and Tubo are left. Is there any surprise in the mountain lakes in these two places?"
"The largest alpine lake in Tuyuhun is Qinghai on the edge of Fuqi City, but the water there is salty, like sea water, not suitable for drinking." Li Jing walked in, rubbing his head and said in a hoarse voice. The headache was not caused by drinking, but by singing loudly. My head was buzzing and my throat was sore.
ps: People who have shouted Mai before should understand this feeling, especially when you are drunk and shouting Mai, the stamina lasts a long time.
"Mr. Yuan has a good drinker." After Li Jing sat down, he picked up the tea that Xia Gua had just put in, drank it in one gulp... and said in surprise, "Hey, the aroma is good, where is this tea from?"
Xia Gua poured another cup of tea and chuckled: "Looking back to the long history, it was collected from Junshan in the middle of Dongting Lake. Because it is curled like a snail and has the fragrance of flowers and fruits, the prince named it Biluochun."
Yuan Tiangang: "..."
Partiality, Xia Gua's partiality, we didn't explain this when we were drinking tea...Does the little girl have any objections to us?
"The scenery there is really good." Li Jing picked up the tea cup and continued to drink tea. The effect of soothing his throat was obvious, and he felt that his throat was not so painful anymore. Looking at Yuan Tiangang, he asked. "What are you studying? You still need to use hexagrams to calculate directions?"
Yuan Tiangang narrated the matter in general and said helplessly: "There are no relevant classics. We are digging lakes and mountains in the plains, but we don't know where to start. Without a solution, we can only calculate a hexagram."
Looking at each other's feng shui, someone will not hesitate at all. Even if he and Zhang Guo went to break the mechanism of the ancient tomb, I would not hesitate at all. This... looking for new substances to generate lightning... "Before I looked at Du Silang's drawings, I had never thought about deriving lightning... The Five Thunder Talisman is not included. It is used to ward off ghosts and evil spirits and cannot be used by ordinary people."
Not all talismans are useless. How can I put it? It is just like requiring the inscriptions of the students of Hongwen Hall to be written at the level of inscriptions on shabby houses. It is unrealistic.
After listening to Yuan Tiangang's words, Li Jing took the ruler and compass to look at, frowning and said: "Mr. Yuan, are you a little confused about priorities? Steam engines are very useful, and everyone has seen its value. You guys We should first make steam engines to make ships that can be used for water and sea transportation, and then make steam locomotives to transport grain, grass and bulk goods without using a lot of human and animal power, and contribute to the development of the Tang Dynasty."
After drinking another cup of tea, he continued: "How long does it take to study the kind of kerosene steam engine you are talking about before it can be used? Three years, five years or ten years? Once the steam locomotives and ships move, and Tangli's rhythm is memorized, ten years Only later will more talents join Yunhe Mansion and the court. Perhaps these problems today will no longer be difficult to solve."
Prince Teng had already fried the lake with oil buns, so who would go to such trouble to dig it out bit by bit?
Yuan Tiangang slapped his forehead and said with some annoyance: "Thank you, Mr. Pharmacist, for reminding me that I think things are too complicated. We should build roads step by step, test the steam engine, and improve its efficiency and transportation capacity."
During the operation of a steam engine, you will definitely encounter many problems, and solving problems is also a process of accumulating skills. When the water is ready and the kerosene steam engine becomes official, the charcoal steam engine can be used for civilian use.
Du Che just rolled his eyes, then lowered his head to drink tea. After completing the improvement of the charcoal steam engine, and transferring the production to the Shaofu and the Ministry of Industry, I can continue to study the kerosene steam engine with Xiao Shiyi. They will waste half a year at most, so there is no rush.
"Chang Shi, do you think this small lightning object has any practical value?" Xiao Ruoyuan bowed to Li Jing and asked softly. The prince likes to make money, and if it can be used for private purposes, it is also good to make a small amount of money.
Li Jing pointed to the glazed lamp and said with a smile: "It can be made into a shell of silver and gold, and sold to aristocratic families. It is more elegant than lanterns when you climb mountains at night to admire the moon. Make a batch of bamboo tubes and sell them to envoys and businessmen from various countries. You can earn a small amount of money." The money will not be less than a large piece of colored glass.”
The voice changed and he added: "Find a way to make it waterproof. It can be used when marching at night to catch people, or for sentinels, but you must pay attention to the durability and distinguish it from selling to others."
"Li Yaoshi, you're the one who's the one who's the one who's to blame!" Yuan Tiangang understood what Li Jing meant after hearing what he said. Small items have a time limit for use. Once they use them, they find that they are much more convenient than lanterns, and they will buy small items without hesitation... "It is necessary to choose a nice and easy-to-remember name, and to design it to prevent disassembly. Some people take it apart and copy it, causing unnecessary danger and harming others and themselves."
Liu Bu, Du Che and Xiao Ruoyuan drank tea silently: "..."
You are obviously more sinister, but you won’t even let me dismantle you!
Xia Gua poured out the tea from the pot, washed the pot again, took the tea, warmed the pot...divided the tea: The prince said that green tea leaves are tender, and two brews are the best. If you brew more, it will lose its aroma. However, Ge Si Yao proposed that tea can be fermented, and Bai Lu and Dong Guo are experimenting with how to make fermented tea, preparing to surprise the prince.
Liu Bu took his two junior brothers... Although Xiao Ruoyuan never admitted that the master was his master, the fact was that he was the master... Why did he feel that he had a similar relationship with Yuan Gong and Sun Gong? Shaking their heads to get rid of the unwanted thoughts, the three of them started a new round of calculations and calculations, and also went to the workshop to do experiments. After the experiments, they needed to re-check, calculate, calculate and test again... without many twists and turns. , it is impossible to get the mouth data combination.
"Start making the sand table tomorrow." Li Jing picked up the tea cup and said leisurely.
Yuan Tiangang: "..."
