The moment the curtain was opened, Newton was stunned.

He saw a giant steel furnace monster, its appearance made of pitch-black steel, and every line of a piece of steel revealed the beauty of knowledge.

Newton leaned down to inspect the parts of the giant steam engine, touching them with his hands and even measuring them with calipers.

But a surprising fact emerged.

A craftsman pursues a lifelong goal.

Perfect fit!

Measuring the gap spacing of this giant steam engine from the outside, except for the necessary gaps for flow out, they are all tight.

Newton took a deep breath and admired in his heart. It must be said that Longyan people have an unusual craftsmanship in this aspect.

He suddenly recalled that every time Mo Cheng conducted experiments with him, he tried his best to reduce the measured data and variables to the minimum.

This made Newton couldn't help but wonder whether all Longyan people were pursuing the spirit of craftsmanship.

After all, such a big thing cannot be completed by one person. There must be many processes to cooperate.

The process is absolutely complicated.

Thinking of this, Newton looked at this giant steam engine again and felt inexplicably much more comfortable.

But this alone was enough to shock Newton.

The key point is the technological innovation of this steam engine. This giant steam engine has eight cylinders, all of which are extremely huge.

Moreover, Long Yanren has made considerable improvements to the entire steam engine.

They've improved the air path, at least that's what it looks like from the outside.

"Oh, this is actually possible here!"

"Why is this here?"

"Ah, the Longyan people are really a group of geniuses..."

After Harun, Mo Cheng and Hu Xier arrived, they looked at Newton's enthusiastic eyes and lay down on the giant engine.

His eyes were fixed on the lines and instruments on it, and he didn't know what he was saying.

Harlan could barely understand a sentence or two, but his face was ashen.

Hu Xier came to Mocheng and continued to be a little transparent.

He glanced at the giant steam engine produced by Long Yan and didn't take it to heart.

Mo Cheng was fortunate enough to have participated in the development and manufacturing of this giant steam engine, and he knew the structure inside it very well.

However, he would not tell Newton.

After Newton saw Harlan coming over, his face suddenly became happy, he suddenly got off the machine and rushed to the side of Duke Harlan and Finance Minister.

She grabbed his hand excitedly.

That look actually made Harlan, a man over fifty years old, a little afraid.

"My dear Harlan, I would like your permission to dismantle this giant steam engine so that I can study it."

Harlan's face suddenly stiffened and he said in a deep voice, "No!"

"Why not? Do you know the value of this giant steam engine?"

"Such a good thing must be dismantled and studied!"

"Besides, I wonder if I can't repair it well."

Harlan snorted coldly and said calmly: "Humph, the textile machine that came in three years ago was given to you to study, but you dismantled it."

"Two years ago, I finally got the musket from Long Yan. You also dismantled it. Have you repaired it?"

Hu Xier, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. How could this guy look like the original Mo Cheng?

But Newton said without blushing or heartbeat: "Then I didn't help you repair the steamboat I bought a year ago."

"Haha." Harlan laughed angrily: "A few days after you repaired the ship, you broke it and it leaked again."

Phew!

Hu Xier couldn't hold back anymore and laughed out loud.

Harlan and Newton looked over following the laughter, and Hu Xier quickly covered her mouth.

The two people glanced at her and did not continue talking.

Turning around, the two men continued to confront each other.

At this time, there was another laugh, and Harlan and Newton's expressions darkened.

Hu Xier quickly said that it was really not her this time.

They turned their attention to Mo Cheng next to them. Mo Cheng, who basically maintained a paralyzed expression throughout the whole process, laughed like a pig.

"Hehehe..." Mo Cheng looked at Newton.

He didn't realize that his laughter just now angered these two people.

"Brother Newton, you still have such a dark history."

"But it doesn't matter. There is an old saying in our Longyan circle."

"Failure is success. If you want to marry her child, you must first meet her mother."

Newton was stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought. He felt that this sentence made sense.

He suddenly looked at Harlan and said extremely seriously: "You heard it just now."

"Only by experiencing failure can we succeed."

Harlan was speechless for a moment, the truth is this.

But this steam engine is not used for research now.

Although Mo Cheng was none of his business at this time, he could not help but intervene when the time was right.

"Brother Newton, don't worry about this, you can go to our Longyan."

"This steam engine was produced by Longyan. If you want to study it, shouldn't you go to Longyan?"

Harlan looked at Mo Cheng with an evil look.

In front of him, poach their British talents!

Newton fell into thinking. For him, it was the same wherever he did research.

He has longed for Long Yan, ever since the Age of Discovery began and someone completed a journey around the sea.

Too many excellent goods came to Britain by sea.

And these products are not only new, but also interesting.

Especially the Dragon Flame products. Some of these products look simple, but the knowledge contained in them is not simple at all.

There was a look of hope in Newton's eyes, and Harlan saw all of this.

He said coldly: "Newton, you always have a chance to study it."

"But the purpose of this machine now is not to do this!"

"Okay, it's almost time, you should go."

Newton's face froze, and he had no choice but to leave in confusion from the machine that fascinated him.

"Two distinguished guests of Long Yan, please wait a moment."

Harlan called to Hu Xier and Mo Cheng.

Hu Xier looked at Harun and frowned slightly.

"Dear Duke Harlan, is there anything else you can do?"

A smile appeared on Harlan's old face, but it gave people an eerie feeling.

"I hope you two will stop pestering Newton too much."

"He is our Briton."

Hu Xier's expression changed, and Mo Cheng's words just now caught Duke Harlan's attention.

Mo Cheng blocked Hu Xier behind him and said in a cold voice: "Your Excellency Harun, what do you mean by this sentence? We are just friends with Newton."

Duke Harlan laughed and said lightly: "I hope so."

After saying this, he walked past Mo Cheng and Hu Xier.

Hu Xier's face changed slightly, and she felt a deep threat from Harun's tone.

After they left here, they came to the small hotel where they lived before.

Hu Xier looked at Mo Cheng seriously.

"Mocheng, maybe we need to leave this place as soon as possible." Hu Xier said in a deep voice.
