At this time, Europe.
Britain.
The research and development of the Dreadnought-class battleship has entered a critical period.
His initial model has been almost built, and the giant steam engine Longyan has been explored by Stephenson.
Now is the most critical debugging stage.
Newton didn't know how to build a ship, but he knew how to maximize the power of a steam engine.
After several starts, Stephenson and he both clearly realized how powerful this giant steam engine made by dragon flames could be.
After their careful calculations, this giant steam engine can at least provide power for a warship with a displacement of more than 300 tons.
This is only theoretical data.
Other data and other designs of this battleship are not included in the superposition.
If you include the unique design of this battleship to achieve higher speed and larger displacement, it can reach a displacement of at least four million tons.
The more they thought about it, the more they realized how terrifying Long Yan's research and development capabilities were.
It’s hard to imagine how large a displacement Longyan’s supply ship has!
The supply ship of Weilongyan was the largest, but its speed was extremely fast.
Even ordinary battleships and destroyers cannot be enemies with him.
Stephenson was excited about such a giant steam engine with only two words in his heart.
The prototype Dreadnought-class battleship they manufactured had long abandoned the traditional wood design, and the overall design was made of steel.
They want to build a steel ship that can sail on the sea.
But Stephenson didn't have much excitement to speak of.
Although this research also shocked the world, it was far from the steam train he wanted.
To him, building such a warship was nothing more than building a killing weapon.
But steam trains, a vehicle for transporting supplies, are completely different.
They are not created to kill.
Newton understood his thoughts, but did not dissuade him. He was originally very irritable, but he was very easy-going on this matter.
"When the prototype of the Dreadnought-class battleship is completed, I won't be needed here."
Stephenson said lightly.
He looked at the big guy lying in the factory base.
Newton stood next to him and said: "If you decide, I can help you leave here and go to Long Yan."
"I know there is a ship that is going from Britain to Longyan to transport tea."
Stephenson was quite surprised to see this man, whose mind was filled only with theoretical research, actually saying that he could help at this time.
This is simply impossible to happen.
"How did you make it?" Stephenson asked.
Newton smiled, patted his shoulder and said, "You know, besides research, I also like other things."
"Long Yan's tea can help me regain my energy. It's much better than bitter and astringent coffee."
Stephenson smiled and nodded: "That sounds very Newtonian."
Newton laughed.
After Stephenson thought for a while, he looked at Newton's face and said very seriously: "Thank you."
"It's okay. Remember to write to me when you get to Longyan."
"Go to my place tonight. I think Mo Cheng and Hu Xier have something to say to you."
Stephenson nodded to express his understanding.
Mo Cheng and Hu Xi'er were from Long Yan, so they didn't help him in the slightest.
Stephenson understands that if he wants to leave, Mo Cheng and Hu Xier will be his greatest help.
Thinking of this, Stephenson said: "You are right, I will go to them first."
…
And at this time.
The other side of the world.
At the banquet at Mount Vernon.
George himself served Martha a plate of dishes called three-no-stick dishes.
"My dear, believe me, this dish has a taste like custard that I have never tasted before."
I saw the pastries and various dishes on the plate. Although they were rich, they looked different.
It doesn't look like your typical British delicacy.
"What's this?"
“I’ve never seen custard like this.”
Martha said in surprise.
Curiously and carefully, she cut a small portion of the custard with a silver spoon and put it into her mouth. Her originally uneasy mood suddenly became sweeter.
Seeing the change in expression on Martha's face, her two children showed curiosity.
They had never seen their mother smile like this.
I can’t help but be surprised. This looks delicious and smells delicious. What is this delicious thing?
The two children picked up the small spoons, took a bite and put it in their mouths, and they immediately showed sweet smiles.
Although Martha was very wealthy in life, she had no good experience at all when it came to food.
This is true of most British families.
"What is this made of?"
"It tastes very tender, but it doesn't melt in your mouth. Instead, it tastes like thick milk and sweet." Martha asked.
George smiled and explained: "This is a dish called 'Three No Sticks' made by Long Yan's chef."
“This dish uses eggs.”
"Eggs?" Mary was stunned.
"Yes, just the most ordinary eggs."
Hearing this answer, Mary was completely in disbelief. This was simply magic. She had never seen eggs that could be made like this.
Unbelievable!
George's sister-in-law Danni felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Martha and George being so intimate.
Her good sister, Mrs. Sudan, also came up at this time.
Looking at Dani's face now, thinking of what Dani said just now, she said very unhappy: "Dani, we were helping you just now."
"you still……"
Danni turned her head to look at Mrs. Sudan and said apologetically: "Sorry, it was my fault just now."
"But George is attracted to her. I know that he is, and I don't care what you think."
"What he believes in will never change."
"Okay, sisters, I have prepared food and wine for you. You can try it."
"Today's dish was cooked by a chef from Long Yan himself."
"An egg he made made me believe that there is magic in the world."
"Come and give it a try."
Mrs. Sudan was a little surprised when she saw Dani's praise. They had never seen Dani praise the dishes before.
Dany is not picky about this.
It's British food, and the taste is really unsatisfactory. In addition to potatoes, there are also some dishes cooked by Britain's top chefs.
For other dishes, it can only be said that there is no difference.
Mrs. Sudan looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table and couldn't help but said: "Then I have to taste how delicious the dishes that Dani, who is not a fan of earthly fireworks, are blowing to heaven."
After Mrs. Sultan sat down, she used a silver spoon to put a dish that looked like pastry into her mouth.
Her eyes suddenly changed.
