Academy of Engineering.
A group of people gathered around the experimental table and looked at the not-so-big new invention seriously.
Yang Yu, who came to the Engineering Academy, passed the guidance and came to the generator testing laboratory.
Seeing so many people gathered around, they didn't bother them and found a corner to look at the experimental table.
The dean of the Academy of Engineering was holding the handle of an instrument that didn't even have fifty cents, and was shaking it gently.
The left side of this instrument consists of a large gear and a small gear, with a hollow piece of wood in the middle, and a small rocking handle on the right side.
There is an iron wire below, connected to an unknown object placed to the left. There is also an iron wire at the tail of the instrument, connected to an object five centimeters away from the gear to the left.
As the dean of the Academy of Engineering shook the handle, the instrument's pointer actually beat.
"Dean, it's done, it's done."
"Three volts, the voltage is three volts."
Seeing the voltage displayed on the instrument, the researcher from the Imperial Academy of Engineering who was responsible for watching the voltmeter said excitedly.
They finally got a generator.
Although this is the simplest generator and has little effect, it is also of great significance to the Star Empire.
"Hand-crank generator?"
Yang Yu's eyes narrowed in the corner. The face is full of smiles.
When the generator appeared, it determined that the Star Empire would move towards the electrical age and begin.
He did not continue to stay in the Engineering Academy, but quietly left the Engineering Academy and returned to the Imperial Palace.
"Dean, do you want to present it to His Majesty now?" A scientific researcher looked at the dean of the Academy of Engineering uncertainly and asked tentatively.
"Need not."
The dean of the Academy of Engineering shook his head. The hand-cranked generator has little effect, but it is of great significance. He said: "From now on, this hand-cranked generator will be placed in this laboratory. Anyone who needs to use it can use it, but it cannot be brought with it." Walk."
…
Time flies, time flies.
When the generator appeared, it meant that the Star Empire had officially entered the electrical age.
Internal combustion engines and electric power units were also developed with the efforts of the Engineering Academy.
Even electric lights have been developed.
At the same time, it also means that the pollution of the Star Empire that belongs to the industrial age has begun.
After the Ministry of Finance saw the effects brought by electricity and electric lights, it immediately began to vigorously promote electricity and electric lights.
Hindering the development of the electrical age?
Who has the guts?
No one dares to hinder the development of the times, and nothing can be done.
Nowadays, the situation of the people under the empire is related to the performance evaluation of the officials, and they dare not hinder the development of the empire.
Year 132 of the Star Era.
After more than thirty years of electrical development, the Star Empire has truly entered the electrical age.
Electrical equipment such as telephones, radios, internal combustion engines, electric motor sets, machine tools, generators, etc. have also been developed.
But Yang Yu still had no clue about the car he was thinking about.
But on this day.
The secretary-general walked into the Imperial Garden excitedly, looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was admiring the flowers in the garden, and quickly suppressed the smile on his face.
"I've seen you very happy from a distance. What's the good thing? Let me hear it."
He put down the teacup in his hand and looked at the secretary-general.
"Your Majesty, I am requesting an audience with the president of the Imperial Academy of Engineering."
"Oh? Invite him over!"
Hearing this, Yang Yu said softly.
The dean of the Academy of Engineering is already in his eighties.
Although he was very young compared to his age, he was with the empire, but he only had a hundred years, which was incomparable.
Moreover, during the years that this dean has been in office, he has truly dedicated himself to the empire.
From the end of the steam age to today's electrical age.
He has already devoted his life to the empire.
"promise."
Less than a cup of tea.
One man's back was slightly stooped and he did not look as energetic as he did thirty years ago. He was wearing simple clothes belonging to the Star Empire. He was followed by two short-haired young men who looked like bodyguards. They looked carefully at the stumbling old man, " Old minister..."
"no."
Yang Yu waved his hand, "I already told you that if you are over seventy, you don't need to salute."
"The etiquette cannot be abolished. You are the king and father, and I am the minister."
The old man said stubbornly.
"sit!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"What does Aiqing want from me?"
After the old man sat down, Yang Yu asked curiously, "But are you being hijacked in some places?"
"Your Majesty, I have lived up to my high expectations and researched the car."
The old man said.
"Really?" Hearing this, Yang Yu's eyes lit up. Was the car taken out?
then.
Yang Yu followed the old man to the Engineering Academy to check out the empire's latest inventions.
In these more than a hundred years, the Star Empire has not slowed down its road construction. Flat cement roads extending in all directions are just waiting for the arrival of cars.
Arrive at the experimental site of the Imperial Academy of Engineering.
When Yang Yu looked at the black car parked at the experimental site and surrounded by many scientific researchers, his eyes lit up. The car, this epoch-making thing, had finally arrived.
"Your Majesty, please."
The old man said.
He did not hesitate. After the Royal Forest Army soldiers left the scientific research workers, he followed the dean of the Academy of Engineering to the Star Empire's first car.
The scientific researchers standing next to the vehicle quickly opened the door for the emperor.
"Or scissor doors? Be creative, be creative."
Yang Yu was full of admiration. The empire's scientific researchers were really creative.
The first car actually used a scissor door design, which was good.
Entering the car, the space is relatively large and all facilities are very simple.
The dean of the Academy of Engineering also entered the car with the help of others.
A scientific researcher also entered the car and sat in the driver's seat.
"Your Majesty, please fasten your seat belt."
said the dean of the Academy of Engineering.
"seat belt?"
"When our engineering institute designed the car, we considered that if the car was too fast and there was an emergency ahead, the people sitting in the car would be thrown forward uncontrollably under sudden braking. This is likely to cause unnecessary losses, so protective measures were developed, which we call safety belts."
"Okay, as expected of the Imperial Academy of Engineering, which I have high hopes for, it has been thoughtful."
Yang Yu's eyes lit up, the Imperial Engineering Academy really brought me a surprise, safety belt protection measures have appeared.
It is much better than the design of the first car in the history of the earth.
"The design of this car mainly uses a single-cylinder four-stroke, gasoline engine, and electronic ignition..."
The dean of the Academy of Engineering worked tirelessly to explain to the emperor the structure and working principle of this car.
Yang Yu did not interrupt him, but fastened his seat belt and sat next to him and listened to his story.
The car started, but at a very slow speed, but Yang Yu was still very satisfied.
Slow speed is not a problem.
It is unrealistic to become a big fat man in one bite.
After the car drove around the square of the Imperial Academy of Engineering, it stopped.
Yang Yu got off the car, looked seriously at the scientific researchers present, and said: "Today will definitely be recorded in the history of the empire, and you will also be like the first, second, third and fourth He served as the dean of the Academy of Engineering and was remembered in history books, becoming a prominent figure in the textbooks of the empire."
"We will devote all our life's learning to the development of the empire, and we will live up to your majesty and the empire."
The faces of the scientific researchers are flushed.
It's enough to let the textbooks record it and let them die now.
"Your Majesty." At this moment, the Secretary-General hurriedly separated from the crowd and came from outside, whispering in Yang Yu's ear: "The Prime Minister, passed away ten minutes ago."
Immediately, Yang Yu had no intention of staying here any longer. He turned to look at the dean of the Academy of Engineering and said, "My dear, something happened over there that needs to be dealt with. You go ahead and do it. I and the empire are your biggest Your support and rewards will be distributed together after I handle the matter over there."
"Your Majesty, deal with the matter at hand first, I am not in a hurry."
