Of course Liu Zheng was not idle.
It can be said that from the time he traveled to Longyan until now, he has basically never been idle.
This made him often laugh at himself, saying that he was just a toiler.
What does this time travel mean?
When other people travel through time, they either become emperors or enjoy all kinds of things.
What about yourself?
Of course, there is an emperor, and he doesn't want to be.
There is enjoyment, but he doesn't want to go.
Because he felt that time passed too fast in Longyan. In the blink of an eye, it has been almost five years since he came to this world.
He also transformed from a playboy to the chief assistant of Longyan!
There are indeed too many different ideas and pursuits in a person's life.
What Liu Zheng pursues is the historical responsibility that matches his status at this time.
Is everything that happened to Longyan real?
he does not know……
Why is he here? He also doesn't know, but what he knows is that the burden on his shoulders is still heavy in seeking his position. Of course, this Long Yan Dynasty has various shortcomings and various shortcomings. But he is from Longyan, he is from China...
He is the inheritor of Chinese civilization, and can even be said to be the creator and transformer.
He would not be like some brainless people in previous lives who thought the air in foreign countries was fragrant.
If you are really a capable person, then use your own abilities to transform this country and lead it towards the perfect country you imagined? If you don't have this ability, what's the use of blaming others? Where is it not a leek?
Sitting on the train, Liu Zheng was thinking about the whole Long Yan thing.
The current public opinion in Long Yan's country is actually still divided into two factions.
The royalists have always existed and are still fighting for Xie Ming. Although their voice is getting smaller and smaller, ideology can easily resurrect.
"Sir... this year's first batch of fertilizers has been distributed, and the results are gratifying. It is estimated that Liangzhou, Sichuan, Sichuan, Liaodong, and Jiangnan will all have a bumper harvest this year!"
Liu Zheng was looking out the window, seeing how Liangzhou was changing with each passing day.
Liang Sanfeng next to him was excited.
Liu Zheng glanced at him and smiled, noncommittal.
Liang Sanfeng, this is Liang Erfu's biological brother. After Liang Erfu was transferred to Liaodong, he took over his brother's duties. Not to mention, the Liang family members were all talented in agriculture. This Liang Sanfeng, after studying at Liangzhou Academy, is also a talented person who can fight after coming out.
“How much larger is the harvest expected?”
Liu Zheng asked.
Now Long Yan is not short of food. It can be said that the food problem has been basically solved. Especially after the Liaodong land was fully developed, coupled with the amazing effect of chemical fertilizers, Longyan has now become almost the number one exporter of grain in the country. During this little ice age, Long Yan's finances had a major improvement, directly solving the deficit problem and directly doubling it.
This is also the reason why Xie Tianyao was reluctant to lay a finger on Liu Zheng even before he died.
In the final analysis, it is because he can lead Long Yan forward... and solve the problems that have troubled Long Yan for thousands of years. Where can he find such a person?
so.
Liu Zheng also smiled after hearing this.
The current situation is that Tsarist Russia is extremely short of food, but Long Yan has a bumper harvest, and the food is almost overflowing. You have to make judgments, but Tsarist Russia still has this temper. The less supplies they have, the more they will beat you. Because Long Yan's food is enough to make them jealous.
Liu Zheng did the math.
Nowadays, due to the bumper harvest, the price of food in Long Yan's country has reached a freezing point.
What's even more funny is...
Because of the difference in transportation time, Qian Feng and Qian Yonggui were able to recoup their costs with Tsarist Russia even if they sold the grain at a very low price, and even had some surplus!
This incident made Liu Zheng a little bit dumbfounded.
Moreover, when the first industrial revolution swept across Long Yan, the technology of textile machines also improved greatly. This caused the people of Longyan to spontaneously appear in various factories. The entire industrial revolution was truly unfolding. The industrial structure began to change, and Long Yan's entire society began to become prosperous.
The industrial revolution was not only a technological revolution, but also a spiritual revolution. Because of the Industrial Revolution, compared to the lifeless agricultural society, it was full of vitality, full of positivity, enterprising spirit, and competitive spirit. The industrial revolution, with its irreversible momentum, changed people's traditional customs, value orientations, and standards for career selection.
"Okay, let's go to Silver Beach City and have a look!"
Liu Zheng planned to close his eyes and rest for a while.
This time, he planned to go to Silver Beach City to see... how the research on electricity was going...
Because Liu Zheng knew that the first industrial revolution was like opening a Pandora's box for the entire human society. The rapid development of science and technology has shortened the gap between the two industrial revolutions to an unimaginable extent. The thousands of years of technological confinement of mankind was broken after the beginning of the first industrial revolution. The development speed of science and technology has entered a doubling stage.
That means...
The second industrial revolution is not far away...
Just look at the current situation of the entire world.
Although Long Yan relied on Liu Zheng's advantage in time travel to advance the first industrial revolution. But in fact, he did not change history much. Britain is a latecomer, and now the progress of the industrial revolution has a tendency to catch up with Long Yan!
Britain, in its previous life, could claim to be the empire on which the sun never sets, which was something. Because they have found such a path.
Relatively speaking, other European countries are not able to do so.
Although these European countries also have outstanding working classes and talents full of inventive and creative spirit, these countries lack the large amount of capital required for industrial machinery, as well as the low-cost colonial labor force and market.
Even powerful France has not really started the industrial revolution yet. In Liu Zheng's memory, it was only after the French Revolution that the old system of the feudal ruling class was abolished, and France had an environment for the industrial revolution. After Napoleon came to power, he attached great importance to the development of science and technology, which provided the conditions for the Industrial Revolution in France.
After that, other countries joined the ranks of the Industrial Revolution.
Liu Zheng is now...
Already starting to think about the second industrial revolution!
Long Yan must go in front of Britain!
Because everyone knows that the development of electricity is almost the most important stage of human development. Because at this stage, the use of electricity directly replaced the steam engine! To put it bluntly, it’s just two words, motivation!
It's still motivation.
The emergence of the steam engine improved human power.
The emergence of electricity has brought human motivation to a new level.
So……
What are the prerequisites for the emergence of electricity?
internal combustion engine!
This is what Liu Zheng wants to see this time!
The internal combustion engine is the basis for the development of the second industrial revolution. In fact, in 1670, the Dutch logistics scientist, mathematician and astronomer Huygens had invented a machine that used gunpowder to burn and expand in the cylinder to push the piston to do work. That is the first generation of internal combustion engines.
It can be seen that the engine using gunpowder as fuel is the originator of the internal combustion engine and the bud of the internal combustion engine theory.
However, later this kind of internal combustion engine was not taken seriously and widely used.
It was not until 1801 that French scientist Philippe began to use coal gas obtained by the carbonization of coal and hydrogen as fuel. It became an engine that mixed coal gas and hydrogen with air and then ignited to generate expansion force to push the piston. This invention is known as a pioneer in the history of the development of internal combustion engines. A sexual step.
This internal combustion engine is what Liu Zheng wants!
only……
Theoretical knowledge was proposed by Liu Zheng.
However, the scientific research laboratory in Yintan City has never been able to develop it. It has encountered a bottleneck in terms of technical issues.
Silver Beach City has finally arrived.
When Liu Zheng got off the train, he suddenly became a good guy.
He hasn't been back for a long time, and this Silver Beach City has become completely unrecognizable to him. You can't see the end at a glance... The entire Silver Beach City has become an industrial city, worthy of the name Silver Beach City.
Liu Zheng couldn't help but think of the first time he and his father came to Silver Beach City...
This place is so bare that it has been despised by others for thousands of years, and is even called a "barren land"!
But who knew that this Baitan would bring endless wealth to Yinzhou in the future?
And it has developed to this point... It has almost become the financial center of the entire Longyan!
"Master, Master!"
"Master Chief!"
"Liu Shoufu!"
At this time, many people gathered around inside and outside Yintan City, almost a sea of people. These people didn't know where they learned that Liu Zheng was coming, which caused a sensation in Yinzhou. After all, Liu Zheng has not come back for so many years. Those who come to Yinzhou to make a fortune, those who come to Yinzhou to speculate in coins, those who come to Yinzhou to open factories, and those who come to Yinzhou to engage in logistics, all these people are completely crowded together. Everyone wanted to see what this legendary Liu Shoufang looked like.
Liu Zheng's train drove directly into Yintan City.
He was not interested in receiving these fans of his, but walked directly towards the scientific research room.
"Son..."
The sudden absence of Qing Yangshuo in Yintan City is still very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Zheng Yueru followed Liu Zheng so that he would not get lost in Silver Beach City.
Finally arrived at the scientific research room.
A group of talents are waiting for Liu Zheng here.
"how's it going?"
Liu Zheng looked at a machine surrounded by people and frowned.
This is a behemoth...
It is estimated that more than a dozen people could not hold it together.
And then lots of pipes, lots of chimneys…
As soon as we entered, the entire workshop was filled with smoke and smoke.
"Sir, it still doesn't work..."
"I don't know why, even though the cylinder is tightly sealed, it still causes an explosion..."
A group of scientific research talents all had grievances on their faces.
Liu Zheng nodded.
What he asked them to study now was Philip's internal combustion engine.
Liu Zheng actually doesn't know much about internal combustion engines. He just proposed a concept... but it is obvious that the current talents in Silver Beach City are not enough to develop this kind of internal combustion engine. The most prominent problem is the power cycle problem, which they always fail to handle well.
Liu Zheng's idea is to first let Yintan City study Philip's gas internal combustion engine...
Then on this basis, the petroleum internal combustion engine was invented...
But obviously, even the originator of the internal combustion engine encountered theoretical difficulties.
"try again!"
Liu Zheng is a little unbelieving.
Their Silver Beach City has the best steel in the world and a scientific research laboratory led by Mo Chen, but there is nothing they can do about this internal combustion engine?
"yes!"
"Sir, you'd better leave a little bit..."
"Master, you must be careful!"
The next scene made Liu Zheng a little bit dumbfounded.
Each of these people began to wear thick protective clothing, as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
Zheng Yueru, quickly pulled Liu Zheng away from here.
I don’t even dare to stay in the workshop!
Is it so scary?
Liu Zheng didn't believe it.
However, as soon as he came out of the workshop, he saw many people. When they heard that another experiment was going on here, their faces changed drastically and they fled the scene...
this……
Liu Zheng looked messy.
"Sir, it's time to begin!"
Soon, sounds came from the workshop.
The corners of Liu Zheng's mouth twitched.
as expected.
Next, there was a bang!
Loud noise!
It’s definitely a loud bang!
Liu Zheng slapped his forehead and ran in quickly. It was dark inside, dusty, and everyone looked black and gray...
The machine, although not destroyed...
After all, the fine steel produced in Liangzhou is still very durable...
but……
The whole machine is in pieces, a piece here, a piece there...
Good guy!
Liu Zheng was so shocked that he forgot to breathe.
What is this picture...
Since you know it's not possible, why do you want to do it again?
"Son..."
"That's it……"
"puff……"
One person even spit out a mouthful of blood.
Liu Zheng was startled.
"Quick, quick, send it to the doctor!"
Although this internal combustion has encountered technical problems, these people are all their own precious talents!
"No, no, no, young master... Phew, no need..."
"Sir, tell me, how to solve this problem?"
A group of scientific researchers looked at Liu Zheng eagerly.
Liu Zheng couldn't do it directly.
