Snapped!
When Zhu Houzhao heard that he wanted to learn from the Japanese pirates, a surge of anger rose up in his heart. Isn’t this an obvious attempt to slap him in the face?
As the emperor of a big country, how can he bend over to learn from a small country? Besides, Japanese pirates have been harassing the southeast of me every year. I haven’t settled with them yet, so why should I learn from them instead?
“Can you feel my anger?”
When Cao Zhengchun saw Zhu Houzhao suddenly throwing the water glass on the table, his heart suddenly tightened, thinking that he might have said the wrong thing, and this was about to end.
“Go back to Your Majesty, I can feel it, but this is also me, I am very good, so I have to finish my words first, and ask Your Majesty to be kind.”
Although Cao Zhengchun felt that what he said was very reasonable, when he arrived at His Majesty’s place, it was the crime of collaborating with bandits.
Zhu Houzhao’s face was a little blue, his hands trembled slightly, and he let out a long breath before saying to Cao Zhengchun, “Go ahead! I don’t blame you.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Cao Zhengchun bowed to Zhu Houzhao.
“Your Majesty, please think about it, since there is no possibility of technology leaking out of the palace, there is only one reason why the artillery of the feudal lords should be built better than the imperial court, and that is that these feudal lords bought overseas technology with a lot of money, and The feudal lords also have dedicated manufacturing teams, so this problem cannot be understood.”
Zhu Houzhao nodded heavily. He was born in the palace, but he was just a frog at the bottom of the well. Although he came to this world from a later age, his knowledge of history and technology was weak and pitiful.
If you know that you are in this era, you should use the advanced technology of later generations, and finally come up with a steam engine, but many people have not heard of it.
“I didn’t expect the little Japanese pirates to be so smart!” Zhu Houzhao immediately understood what he meant from Cao Zhengchun’s words.
He himself never thought of learning this method from the surroundings, but just blindly let his subordinates develop new things, but he didn’t know that the best method was to use it.
At the same time, the Ministry of Industry.
After Li Suide returned from the court, he applied the production of new weapons to the warship, especially the addition of a steam engine, which made his men even more busy.
Right now, His Majesty has allocated silver taels for the Ministry of Industry, enough for them to spend three years, but the production of this new type of artillery will take some time to develop.
The experiment we did last time soon came to the Ministry of Industry. Some people used hot boiling water to generate power, but then another problem appeared immediately.
This warship can’t keep a fire to fight, and it’s inconvenient to go to sea, and the problem of raw materials used for boiling water cannot be solved.
A lot of people have thought about stacking charcoal on boats, but this is a stopgap measure, not a solution in the long run.
Many craftsmen work day and night in order to dedicate their strength to the Ming warship, but now they have encountered a problem.
His Majesty asked them to make a steam engine. Although they all understand the principle, they may not be able to make a steam engine if they understand the principle.
Li Suide had already given death orders to the craftsmen in the Academy of Sciences, asking them to solve the problem of steam engine power within a month.
However, the craftsmen of scientific research have been developing day and night, and still can’t come up with a pertinent solution, and the problem has reached a deadlock for a while.
“Look, can you think of other ways?” Li Suide looked at these craftsmen anxiously, obviously he had fallen into a dead end.
“My lord, the bell has to be tied to unlock the bell. I think the lord should ask Your Majesty about this matter, maybe…”
After many experiments, a craftsman from the Ministry of Industry put forward their unanimous opinion on Li Suide.
Li Suide thought about it a lot. He felt that it was not that these craftsmen were useless, but that they had not found a suitable method for making steam engines.
After putting on the court clothes, Li Suide took a sedan chair to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. This time he wanted to break the casserole and ask to the end, and he also had to find real gold from His Majesty.
Night falls.
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Forbidden City, the lights are bright.
“Did I say that you are all pig brains? I have already done experiments for you, but you still don’t understand how to do it? What do I still need to feed you?”
Li Suide stood beside Zhu Houzhao with his head lowered and did not speak.
When Zhu Houzhao calmed down, Li Suide asked: “Your Majesty, the ministers and others have already understood the principle of this steam engine, but knowing the principle may not be able to manufacture it, not to mention, the question of this fuel…”
Zhu Houzhao immediately understood what Li Suide meant. As an old minister who grew up in the country, it was normal that he didn’t understand something in the West.
“The palace is still burning carbon, why not use anthracite?”
“anthracite?”
The first one Li Suide listened to was two big.
It was the first time he heard such a novel feeling. He was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and he had never heard the word anthracite in his life.
“What did your majesty say? I…”
Oh, by the way, he doesn’t understand what I said. Zhu Houzhao secretly rejoiced in his heart. As the identity of the transmigration, no one knows that he has transmigrated from the later world, and he cannot look at the present with the eyes of the later world.
That being the case, why don’t you teach these ministers from scratch!
“Is there any coal here? The dark kind?”
Zhu Houzhao gestured with his hand, but still didn’t make it clear.
However, Li Suide immediately understood what Zhu Houzhao said.
“Go back to Your Majesty, the coal that His Majesty mentioned, there is a large area in Xishan, and it has not been mined yet. It has been put on hold for a long time, and no one has gone to it until now.”
“Okay, I’ll take you to mining now.”
After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he looked up at the night, and it was getting dark outside.
During the Little Ice Age, the north felt cold early.
Therefore, it was only after August 15 that some people began to wear cotton-padded clothes. Of course, they were high-ranking officials and nobles. Ordinary people just wore thin clothes and it was fine.
Li Suide’s eyes widened. At his current age, it is no exaggeration to be Zhu Houzhao’s grandfather. However, there are a lot of words that he can’t understand at all.
What is mining? What is Anthracite? what is…
When he came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, a series of questions appeared in his mind. Has Your Majesty been ill recently?
“Steam engine, anthracite, mining” these new terms, as an old minister, he has never heard of them in his life, and he is really ashamed.
Running all the way~www.readmtl.com~ Li Suide didn’t return to the Ministry of Engineering until late at night. He immediately gathered all the craftsmen and wanted to tell them an unexpected secret.
Many people woke up from their sleep and saw Li Suide with a face of vicissitudes. They knew in their hearts that something big would happen tonight.
“Your Majesty, His Majesty said that the fuel problem can be solved, but His Majesty raised a new question, anthracite, have you heard of it?”
As soon as I asked, the craftsmen below were dumbfounded. No one has seen coal much. This anthracite is simply nonsense.
“Your Majesty said that there is coal in Xishan, and tomorrow morning, take us to Xishan to mine coal, and then the fuel problem will be solved, and the steam engine matter. Let’s guide you, it’s really a majestic emperor!”
Li Suide couldn’t help but say, the craftsmen below seem to have entered a dream…
