The two teams had already set off after the New Year. When they returned to Xianyang, the spring breeze was already blowing.
The people are busy with spring plowing.
In the past, spring plowing was full of cattle and busy people.
But this year is different. There are fewer cattle in the field, replaced by steam tractors emitting black smoke!
The tractor factory has been expanded several times, but the tractors it can produce are still not enough.
The entire Qin Dynasty is calling for the distribution of tractors.
But productivity is only that big, and Ying Zheng has no choice but to do it bit by bit!
At the same time, Huang Yuan and Ying Heng found Ying Feiyu and reported the good news to him. The generator set had been produced and sent to the power plant for debugging!
"Oh? So fast?"
This was something Ying Feiyu could not expect.
As long as electricity can be developed smoothly, Daqin will usher in the second industrial revolution!
"Quickly? Emperor brother, you don't know that during this period of time, I followed Huang Yuan and led the craftsmen to study day and night, and finally succeeded in making it. Look, I have lost a lot of weight! "
Ying Heng opened his arms and really spun around in front of Ying Feiyu.
But what Ying Feiyu paid attention to was not his figure, but his state!
Before this, the boy was depressed, either hiding in the house or dazing in the corner of the imperial garden.
At most, he can plant some of his mother’s favorite flowers!
But now, in less than a year, my spirit has improved significantly, my whole face is radiant, and I have a smile on my face!
It seems that Ying Heng has come out of the shadow of his mother's death and found his life goal again!
"In that case, how about I cook with my own hands later and make a table of delicious food for Brother Huang as compensation?"
Today, Ying Feiyu is nine and a half years old. With systematic blessings, he has grown to more than four and a half feet. He can already put his hands on the shoulders of this malnourished imperial brother.
"Hmph! Emperor brother, don't try to fool me with a table of food, you also need beer!"
Ying Heng smiled, revealing a shallow pear dimple.
"Enough! It's ice cold!"
The winery is run by his own family, so of course he can get as much as he wants, and Ying Feiyu will not be stingy.
"Okay! This is what you said!"
"Yeah! I said...!"
Ying Feiyu smiled and turned his attention to Huang Yuan again, "Has it been tested? Can it generate electricity?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, it has been tested and there is absolutely no problem!"
Huang Yuan nodded firmly.
"Great, once electricity becomes popular, great changes will occur in Daqin!"
The internal combustion engine and electricity are important symbols of the second industrial revolution.
Ying Feiyu believes that as long as there is a beginning, the rest will be much simpler!
And electricity is the beginning!
"His Royal Highness, would you like to visit?"
Huang Yuan asked.
"This is for sure. Not only is this prince going to go, but he also has to invite his father to go with him!"
Ying Zheng had already put down his harsh words. If he was not allowed to invest in the electric power industry, there would be no chance of a smooth development in Da Qin.
Now that the electricity that can be put into use has been produced, of course I have to let Mr. Zha take a look!
In addition, you have to bring a group of ministers with you, so that they can pay for shares!
If you want to popularize electricity throughout Daqin, the power plants you need are really not as simple as one or two.
The money needed is not one or two million gold.
So he had to bring all the ministers in!
"The time is set for tomorrow!"
"Okay! I will order someone to prepare in advance later!"
Huang Yuan responded and turned to leave, but was stopped by Ying Feiyu.
"good……!"
Ying Feiyu nodded and continued to ask, "Have you seen the internal combustion engine drawings? Do you have any clues?"
"Your Highness, you sent someone to deliver this. If it had been anyone else, I would have thought it was someone who had done this as a prank!"
At the mention of the internal combustion engine, Huang Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, feeling bad all over.
Before that, whatever drawings the prince had given him, he only had to flip through a few pages and he would have a prototype in his mind, and he could also give an approximate time for successful production!
Even with huge things like steam trains, he never had any trouble!
But it was this little internal combustion engine that really stumped him!
The little bits and pieces inside really confused him.
And that special working principle, I don’t know anything about it at all!
"What? But what don't you understand?"
"There's nothing I don't understand! I don't understand anything at all!"
When he mentioned this, Huang Yuan seemed to be overcome with emotion and kept pouring out his bitter thoughts.
The proud look before suddenly disappeared!
"Royal brother! I've also seen those drawings. They're all bits and pieces. I didn't understand any of them!"
This time, Ying Heng also stood by Huang Yuan and expressed that he didn't understand at all.
"Okay! It seems that I have to take some time to tutor you in physics!"
Looking at the slapping faces of the two of them, Ying Feiyu couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, you can't blame Huang Yuan for letting him make such complicated things when he doesn't understand anything!
A steam engine is easier to understand. It is a reciprocating power machine that uses the energy of steam and converts it into mechanical work!
The internal combustion engine is more complicated and involves more things. It is normal for them not to understand!
Ying Feiyu didn't expect them to produce the internal combustion engine in a short time, but just asked them to study it in their spare time!
In later generations, the advent of the internal combustion engine was nearly two hundred years later than the steam engine!
No matter how slow Huang Yuan and the others are, they still can't reach two hundred years!
After Ying Heng and Huang Yuan left, Ying Feiyu went to Ying Zheng and told him that the power plant had been built and asked him to visit it tomorrow!
Ying Zheng was naturally grinning from ear to ear.
According to this guy, electricity will promote the development of Daqin to a great extent!
Moreover, he could also make money by investing in shares and bring benefits to the court. How could he refuse!
I promised to go and watch it with all the ministers as soon as the court is over tomorrow morning!
The first hydroelectric power station in Daqin was not a very large one like that of later generations, but a small power station built on a tributary of the Weishui River. After all, the technology was limited and it could only do so!
Even so, countless people in the Qin Dynasty were excited!
Ying Zheng also ended the morning session in a hurry, just to go and see what real power generation is like!
"I have met His Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince...!"
Huang Yuan led a group of craftsmen and started preparations yesterday.
We were already waiting outside the power station before dawn until we saw Ying Zheng's steam car!
Ever since he got a car, this old guy has to drive it wherever he goes.
The other ministers could only ride in carriages and eat ashes behind him!
"But are you all ready?"
Ying Zheng thought he was handsome and got out of the carriage, put his hands behind his back and asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, everything is ready!"
Huang Yuan cupped his hands and reported.
