Zhu Youxiao knelt on the ground looking at it! Two scientists with adoring looks in their eyes!

I felt an inexplicable and refreshing feeling in my heart. After feeling proud, I felt a little guilty. This was obviously Huang Xiao's invention. This... I feel guilty!

But if you ask him to say that it is not his own invention and that he is a king, this will not open his mouth.

"My dear friends, please get up! I also contributed a little bit to this steam engine. You will know about it in the future!"

Zhu Youxiao still had one thing to say. After all, he was still young and had not yet perfected his skills on face!

The two thanked each other and stood up.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "The prototype manufacturing of this steam engine can be completed in these two days! Then, you two will come with me to witness it!"

Wang Zheng was shocked again. It is not an easy task to go from design drawings to finished products!

"The prototype has been manufactured! Your Majesty is truly a man of God! It is a perfect time for me to return to Beijing this time!"

Song Yingxing also said: "The students looked at the exquisite structure of this steam engine and thought it would take a long time to trial-produce it! I didn't expect that Your Majesty would dare to be the first! The prototype is actually out! The students really want to see it as soon as possible!"

Zhu Youxiao laughed loudly and said: "My dear friends, you can't praise me anymore. Let's talk about this steam engine. Song Qing, look at how the steel used in this fire chamber, boiler, and track can be used with the least amount of steel." The price makes this train affordable to build and use! I wonder what you think?"

"Wang Qing, take a look at the workmanship of connecting rods, pistons, and gears."

Both of them were shocked, knowing that the emperor was testing themselves. They cheered up and stepped forward to observe carefully again.

After a long time, the two looked at each other, both sweating profusely.

Wang Zheng looked ashamed and sighed: "I boast that I am proficient in mechanics and also familiar with Western knowledge. Now when I look closely, I realize that compared with your Majesty's knowledge, it is like the light of a firefly competing for the brightness of the bright moon! These principles, veteran I know a little bit, but I don’t know everything. I can still find a way to connect the rods and gears, but in terms of sealing... I really didn’t expect what kind of material could be used! I’m really ashamed of myself!”

Song Yingxing's eyebrows were about to be twisted into a splay, and he sighed and said: "Your Majesty reminds you! This steel must be rust-proof, durable, and cheap! This...student has no good idea at the moment, please forgive me, "

Both of them were so shocked that they almost hid their faces and left with shame on their faces.

However, Zhu Youxiao knew that the two of them still had real talents and learning. At least Huang Xiao respected them highly, and they also had unique vision and could see the problem.

"My dear friends, don't be discouraged. I already have a solution here. Wang Qing, regarding the sealing material, take a look at this!"

"Song Qing, look at this about steel!"

When they heard the emperor say that they already had a solution, both of them were shocked and raised their heads!

But the emperor took two piles of white paper from the case and handed them over respectively.

The two couldn't wait to take it.

Wang Zheng saw the title at a glance.

Eucommia gum extraction process!

Song Yingxing's is the blast furnace alloy steel drawing process.

The two of them watched like crazy, like drinking fine wine!

"Ah! I know this Eucommia tree! There are many of them in Shandong Prefecture! It turns out that it can not only make medicine, but also have such wonderful functions! What a treasure tree! With this information, I dare to issue a military order!" Wang Zheng shook his head. , full of praise.

Zhu Youxiao nodded with a smile and turned to look at Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing studied it over and over again and was so obsessed that he didn't even notice the time.

Wang Zheng could only cough as a reminder.

Song Yingxing woke up with a start and said: "Students have been studying alloys for a long time. Today I realized that students are like frogs at the bottom of a well. Your Majesty's talent and learning are truly admirable! The students themselves recommended this method to cast steel for the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Youxiao laughed and said: "The two beloved ladies have the courage to take on the responsibility! I am very pleased!"

Song Yingxing pointed to the symbols on the blast furnace drawing and asked, "Your Majesty, is this the height?"

Zhu Youxiao looked at it and said: "This is the Thai and Western character 5. The m at the end is pronounced as Mo Yi Mi, Mi! It means five meters."

"Oh, Mo Yimi, Mi! I have learned a lesson!"

Zhu Youxue is now learning and putting it into practice. After Huang Xiao taught Pinyin letters last night, he also talked about some Pinyin methods, especially drawings.

Huang Xiao's bad taste changed many symbols, such as kilometers = qm, centimeters = lm, degrees = d, air pressure = qy, etc. Maybe in future generations, the whole world will have to use weights and measures with the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Youxiao nodded, hesitated, and pulled out another sketch from the desk.

Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng were both shocked. His Majesty issued another paper!

This is the sketch of the pressure valve that Zhu Youxiao personally designed last night. He was inspired by Huang Xiao's thermometer, but he was also a little uneasy. Huang Xiao's drawings previously shocked the two of them. If it was his own design Worthless, then...

After thinking about it, he took it out.

"My dear, this is an immature design of the pressure valve. Please take a closer look."

Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng reluctantly put down the information in their hands and came to check it out together.

Zhu Youxiao was standing aside, fidgeting, his eyes moving back and forth on the two people's faces.

"Huh? This is a good idea! The term thermal expansion and contraction is well mentioned!" Wang Zheng praised.

Song Yingxing said: "Although your majesty's design is not perfect yet, the students believe that based on this, a suitable pressure valve can be produced! Your majesty's ideas are unconstrained and the students admire them!"

After receiving nods of praise from the two major scholars, Zhu Youxiao felt happy!

This sense of accomplishment is even more intense than before!

He laughed out loud!

"Okay! This will also be completed and researched by my two beloved ministers! I want to set up a special department to study these, which will be supported directly by me with internal funds and managed by me personally. The two beloved ministers will shoulder this heavy responsibility for me! I will wait for my decision Later, I will appoint two more beloved ministers!"

"I (student) will live up to your majesty's trust and forge weapons for the country!" The two knelt down to express their gratitude.

Zhu Youxiao said: "These drawings will be studied by the two Aiqing first. You will stay in Xiyuan later. When everything is ready, Aiqing and I will work hard to build it together!"

After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he asked the young eunuch to lead the two of them.

"I used to hear scholars talking about Your Majesty, saying that Your Majesty is uneducated and loves woodcraft and ignores government affairs. Now it seems that this is all nonsense!" After Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng settled down, they studied the information together and couldn't help but sighed.

Wang Zheng cupped his hands in the east and said: "Your Majesty really surprised us today. I have misunderstood your Majesty before! You are really blind and blind! Your Majesty's steam engine can be used in agriculture, water conservancy, military, people's livelihood, etc. Bless all generations! How lucky is the heaven, how lucky are all the people! The presence of the Holy Emperor in the DPRK is truly a blessing to the Ming Dynasty!"

Song Yingxing nodded and said: "Your Majesty's steel-making method is also the most advanced technology in the world! Students can be sure that the price of steel will gradually drop, and our Ming Dynasty's weapons, agricultural tools, etc. will benefit a lot from this!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up again and said loudly: "Students hereby swear that if I hear anyone slandering Your Majesty in the future, I, Song Yingxing, will fight this person until death!"

Wang Zheng also stood up and said: "Okay! I am also going crazy! No one will be allowed to disrespect Your Majesty! We will also clear His Majesty's name!"

Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng both looked determined. At this moment, they were like soldiers in the trenches, with high morale!

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao didn't know that he had gained two best friends!

He had lunch with the queen, called the guards, and went straight to Huang Xiao's home.
