"This is a radiator."
Ning Wuyan saw the doubts in Zhou Jingxian's heart, and moved his body towards her while lying down, explaining the function of the radiator in a language she could understand.
"Use the stove to boil some hot water, and the heat brought out by the flow of hot water can be used to bridge and dissipate heat, making the room warmer. With it, heating does not have to be so dry, and it will be warmer, as long as When the hot water stops, it will stay warm.”
Is there such a good baby?
Zhou Jingxian is actually not used to lighting charcoal fires in winter.
One is that she has practiced martial arts all year round and does not feel how cold it is. The other is that no matter how good the smokeless charcoal is, if it is burned for a long time and smelled for a long time, there will be dust in the nose and needs to be scrubbed from time to time. This is very important to her. To me, it's just a burden.
But if there was such a heating method as Mr. Ning mentioned, she would like to try it by burning the radiator while sleeping.
Especially when the emperor's grandfather was fighting enemies in the north, he suffered injuries due to the severe cold weather. However, lighting a charcoal fire was not good for the body, causing him to cough all the time. Therefore, almost all the concubines in the harem would stew pear soup for the emperor. Grandpa drank it, and among them, the pear soup stewed by Imperial Concubine An was the most suitable to Grandpa Huang’s taste.
But if I drank too much of that pear soup, the imperial doctor said I would get a cold stomach.
If you have a radiator, all these problems can be solved!
"Mr. Ning, how do you make this radiator? Can I just follow the drawing above?"
Zhou Jingxian did not hide her eagerness and told Grandpa Huang's situation.
When Qin Shi next to him heard about the radiator, he was just surprised by Mr. Ning's whimsical idea and did not think about His Majesty's physical illness at all.
When I saw Princess Xian, who was usually careless in her work, the first thing she thought of was His Majesty, and she secretly decided that when she reports today, she must explain this matter to His Majesty.
Princess Xian's filial piety is not just something she talks about, it is engraved in her heart.
After listening to Zhou Jingxian's words, Ning Wuyang realized that the audience for radiators could be expanded.
but.
There is currently a problem that needs to be solved.
That's the problem of wasted supplies.
"Princess, I haven't been to the palace yet, but I think the place where Your Majesty lives should be more open than us. A device like this with radiators all over the house is not suitable for the palace. I plan to stay here. First make a set of radiators suitable for the main courtyard and main rooms of Princess Xian's palace, and then adjust the temperature on site. If it is suitable, I will make modifications and customize a set for Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Having said this, an idea flashed in Ning Wuyan's mind.
correct.
In an empty house, radiators can be installed at fixed points.
As long as it is installed in a place with intensive human activities, and the rest is made into iron pipes for conveying water pipes, this will reduce the number of iron tools used.
If he follows this idea, he can make some small radiators, and the cost of each one will be controlled within ten taels of silver, and then make the pipes thinner, so that some people who are afraid of cold and sick can still afford it. Use this.
right!
Just do it!
Ning Wuyang saw Yunfei walking in the door while going to the kitchen, and quickly greeted him.
"Yunfei, go get pen and paper, I'll draw another set of designs."
"Princess, in this case, the scraps in the warehouse may not be enough. I can only ask you to go to the Ministry of Industry and borrow some ironware. It doesn't need to be too much, two hundred kilograms is enough."
"Invite two more porcelain craftsmen. I have something to ask them."
Today's ceramics are exquisite but not down to earth.
In order to reduce the cost, the craftsmen have to think about it carefully.
It is best to figure out that at a certain water temperature, ceramics will not crack after being soaked for a long time, and if the steel can be thermally cycled, then the ironware costing an ordinary family ten taels of silver can be replaced by iron pottery costing three to five taels of silver in the future. weapon.
The melting point of quartz sand for firing colored glaze is very high. I don't know if adding quartz sand can achieve his wish.
Thinking of this, Ning Wuyang sighed.
"Why is Mr. Ning sighing, but why does he feel uncomfortable?"
Zhou Jingxian, who was still waiting to finish breakfast and go to the Ministry of Industry to find someone after the six-department break, couldn't help but become nervous when she heard his sigh.
"If Mr. Ning is tired, it's better not to think too much. It's important to rest."
"No, I'm not tired. I think I've been a little lazy recently, which is why I haven't been able to perfect the radiator. Princess, if you have time, in addition to going to the Ministry of Industry, go to the palace and fix the radiator. Let me tell your majesty, not to mention every household, even if one of ten households uses a radiator made by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, I think it will be a huge benefit."
Ning Wuhuang's original intention was not to make money from the radiator.
Thanks to Zhou Jingxian for forcing him.
But for the subsequent development, he was really powerless, and it was impossible for him to watch himself enjoy the heating while letting others freeze.
So.
I will dedicate this money-making idea to Your Majesty and let Your Majesty solve the technical and cost issues.
As for promotion, don’t worry.
As long as the levels are divided to meet the needs of different income groups, if there is such a heating artifact, those who can use it will actively choose to use it.
"By the way, there is also a stove for heating hot water. It doesn't have to be just for boiling hot water. It can also be used for cooking. If the radiator is small, the stove can also be smaller."
Ning Wuyan drew twice more on the paper.
Finally, he stuffed the drawing into Zhou Jingxian's hand, put his hands under his neck, and acted like a hands-off shopkeeper.
"I just put forward an idea, and I want His Majesty to give me a few sets of radiators for free. The rest is up to the craftsmen to use their imagination and solve the actual problems themselves."
The uses of some artifacts of this era were somewhat different from what he knew.
A person's knowledge is always limited, so there is brainstorming.
In addition, he specializes in the craftsmanship, and he may think that the problems that require overcoming serious difficulties to solve are not problems at all in the eyes of those craftsmen.
Zhou Jingxian took the drawings, opened her mouth, and finally stood up.
"I will go to the palace now and tell Grandpa Huang about this. It will be faster if Grandpa Huang dispatches the craftsmen from the Ministry of Works."
"Princess, don't you want to have breakfast?"
"I'll just have some pastries in the carriage."
After Zhou Jingxian finished speaking, she rushed into the cool autumn wind without even putting on her coat.
Ning Wuyan looked at the blurry figure outside through the window and sighed: "What a filial and good girl. But the paper window is too mushy and makes it difficult to see the scenery outside. When the craftsman comes, let them take the time to replace it." .”
Qin Shi heard that Mr. Ning was praising Princess Xian's filial piety in one sentence, and planning to replace the paper windows in the next sentence. These two unrelated words could only be thought of by Mr. Ning's out-of-the-box thinking.
He glanced at the paper window, which was obviously newly replaced, and suddenly felt that Mr. Ning was really messing around because he had nothing to do.
Can anything be done by replacing this paper window?
The most that can be done is to replace the flowers and birds on the paper with fish, insects or other patterns. If not, will it still be blurred?
Could it be that by replacing the new window paper, you can directly see the scenery outside?
