Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1629 For the future
Something must have happened, or the steam car played a big role, so Princess Changle thanked her so much again.

Although Wang Shengnan didn't care much about Princess Changle's thanks, he was still very happy in his heart, which showed that she had helped Su Cheng a lot, and this was what made her happy.

"It's getting late, I should go back too." Wang Shengnan said with a smile.

Princess Changle pulled Wang Shengnan and said with a smile: "I can't let you go today, I must toast you two glasses of wine to express my gratitude."

"Today my elder brother is going back to Beijing. If I don't go back, it really can't be justified. You don't have to be polite. I'll come to bother you when I have free time." Wang Shengnan laughed.

Originally, Princess Changle really wanted to keep Wang Shengnan and toasted her twice to express her gratitude, but after hearing Wang Shengnan say that Wang Qingyun returned to Beijing today, it was really not good to keep Wang Shengnan.

"Your brother seems to have arrived in Chang'an. I saw him on the way back. He was in a daze, so he didn't say hello." Su Cheng strode in.

Wang Shengnan couldn't help but smile when she heard that, she could think of that scene, her brother didn't know anything when he just came to Chang'an, and saw a strange looking car on the street that could run without pulling or pushing. Anyone would be dumbfounded.

Princess Changle smiled and said: "Since your elder brother is back, I can't keep you anymore, we will meet again some other day."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "You take the child back, I'll send Shengnan off."

Wang Shengnan got into the carriage, and was escorted out of the Duke's Mansion by the guards. Su Cheng rode a horse and accompanied the carriage.

"What happened? Why did Changle come back and thank me again? It seems like something happened." Wang Shengnan raised the curtain of the car and asked.

Su Cheng smiled and recounted what happened today. Although Wang Shengnan had already guessed, he still opened his mouth slightly in shock.

"Is the train you mentioned really so powerful?" Wang Shengnan asked in surprise. She was really surprised to see that the steam car can run without pulling or pushing today, but it didn't feel that subversive feeling.

But after listening to Su Cheng's detailed introduction of the train, she had a subversive feeling that this would bring earth-shaking changes to the world.

Su Cheng nodded with a smile and said, "Of course it's true. The carriages are two or three times larger than the carriages. It's no problem for the train to pull thirty or forty people. It can run two hundred miles in an hour without rest."

"If the rails are fully laid out, it will play a greater role than the Grand Canal. However, it is difficult for private individuals to build railways, and the court will not allow it. My construction of the Chang'an-Luoyang railway is a special case!"

Wang Shengnan said with emotion: "The investment is indeed quite large, but it must be completed, and it will pay back in a year or two, and there will be a lot of money in the future. It is really a stable and profitable industry."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "At first, I was worried that it would be difficult for the common people to accept new things, but today I drove a steam car around, and Chang'an is almost empty. I think, after the railway is built, it will be very popular."

Wang Shengnan looked longingly: "Not to mention people who need to travel, even I am very curious and want to try it! After the railway is built, there must be many people who don't need to go to Luoyang. Experience it in Luoyang."

"You still found the rubber, I'll leave you a share." Su Cheng laughed.

Wang Shengnan has actually seen the manufactured rubber rings. Compared to a car as big as a steam car, the rubber rings are only small things.

So, she wasn't sure if the rubber would really do much.

This is indeed a very good industry. After it is completed, it will be able to make a lot of money, and it will continue to make a lot of money, extending to future generations.

Hearing that Su Cheng said that he would give her shares as a gift, Wang Shengnan did not show any surprise, but rather resentment.

Wang Shengnan said with some resentment: "I have made up my mind not to marry for the rest of my life, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing on weekdays. What's the use of having shares? When I get old, who do I give the shares to? So, you should keep it for yourself." .”

Su Cheng pondered: "It's a woman's nature to be a mother. Being a mother is also the greatest happiness for a woman. There are still many days to come. I think you should accept this offer."

Wang Shengnan stared deeply at Su Cheng, finally nodded and said: "Since what you said, then I will accept it!"

Su Cheng nodded and said: "I will send you the contract after it's settled. By the way, this is the blueprint of the steam engine. The steam engine can be used not only on the car, but also on the boat. Build a propeller and let the steam engine drive the propeller. It can walk very quickly, and it can also be used on machines, such as weaving, smelting, mining, irrigation, etc. Fangzheng has many uses waiting for excavation and experiments."

After listening to Su Cheng's words, Wang Shengnan has completely understood the role of the steam engine, its subversive role.

So, seeing Su Cheng handing over the drawings, Wang Shengnan was a little confused: "Why are you giving me the drawings?"

This is the design blueprint of the steam engine, so precious, it should be kept secret, why did Su Cheng give her the blueprint?

Su Cheng explained with a smile: "You also have rubber at home. If they know about steam engines, they will definitely be very interested in steam engines. You can send back the drawings of these steam engines."

Wang Shengnan didn't take it, but shook his head: "No, this blueprint is so precious, why give it to them? I won't tell them what I saw, let them figure it out for themselves!"

"You don't have to give them the blueprints just because of me. I'm very touched when you do this, but you don't have to. It's enough for you to have such a heart."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "The steam engine will be widely used in the future. In fact, its structure is not complicated, and it is impossible to keep it completely secret. As long as you spend time and research it, you can imitate it. Therefore, it is not as precious as you think. , you can take it."

Wang Shengnan glanced down at the drawing, and said in a low voice: "Even if others want to imitate, it will take time, and it is enough for you to seize the opportunity. If you give them the blueprint, it will not take long to create it with the background of the Taiyuan Wang family." Lots of steam engines."

"It may be easy to imitate a steam engine, but the secret recipe of rubber is so weird that no one can crack it in a short time. Why did you also take out the secret recipe of rubber processing?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "I have promised Your Majesty to teach the craftsmen of the court how to make the steam engine."

"The two of us have to strive to be together. Your family has to go through that test. You can't let you turn against your family because of this. It's a good sale to them. Let's think it's for the future of both of us!"
