Chapter 973
The next day, Jin Rong, who was summoned by Jiang Yifan, brought Hu Jing straight to Jiang Yifan's office in the Ministry of Industry.

He waved away the officials who came to see him, and sat down on the upper chair, with Hu Jing and Jiang Yifan on both sides.

After the minor official served tea and stepped back, Jiang Yifan said: "The lower official just said that there is something to do, why are you in such a hurry? Your Highness is here right now."

Not long after Jin Rong came down to court at this time, he took a sip of tea, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Qi You came back from Yuanzhou the day before yesterday, did you bring any letter back? You also know that Father wants to promote the machine workshop. New farm tools. Am I thinking about it, maybe the news Qi Younian brought back has something to do with farm tools?"

Maybe Qi Younian felt the hardships of the people in the disaster area and was motivated to be a good person and do good deeds?After all, the machinery workshop is divided into three shares, one of which is owned by Ye Xinyan in the name of the Qi family, and the owner is Qi Younian.

Those agricultural tools are good, but they are really difficult.He promised his father to discuss it with Ye Xinyan, but can this matter be discussed?

Ye Xinyan had already stated at the beginning that the farm tools were borrowed, so even the rent was not confiscated.After it was usable, the people in the machinery workshop took back all the farm tools on the grounds of rest, and put them into several shops in Yuanzhou and other places, where they never saw the light of day.

With Ye Xinyan's personality, she would hold those things down and sell them for a price.

Hu Jing was on the side, and said to Jiang Yifan with a smile: "Otherwise, why would I follow here? I also want to know what news Mr. Qi brought back."

"It has nothing to do with farm tools. It's the steam engine that Wang Qiao was going to make before." Jiang Yifan got up, took out a roll of paper from a partition of the bookshelf, walked to the desk placed between Jin Rong and Hu Jing, and pushed the desk away. spread out the blueprints, and said, "Wang Qiaotuo Qi's grandfather, bring this roll of blueprints back to Ayan to see, saying that it is already working, let Ayan see if it works."

so fast?Both Jin Rong and Hu Jing looked over intently.

The eyes of the two wandered over the blueprint several times, but they couldn't get the point.

Hu Jing raised his head helplessly, and asked Jiang Yifan, "Yuanfan, can you understand this thing? My eyes are cloudy, I just can't see what it is."

Jin Rong sipped his tea and waited for Jiang Yifan to speak.

Jiang Yifan said with a smile: "If Mr. Hu's eyes are cloudy, none of us can run away. I got this picture yesterday, but I couldn't figure it out. Thanks to Ayan, I used thick cardboard, toothpicks, silk threads, etc. to show me It took me a long time before I knew the general idea."

"Is Ye Zi finished?" Jin Rong immediately became interested, "So, is this steam engine finished? Can it be used in an iron smelting furnace?"

No wonder Jin Rong was excited, no matter the Great Xia Dynasty or the surrounding countries, big or small, had a great demand for iron materials.Even the Great Xia Dynasty, with the best smelting technology, could not keep up with the amount of iron smelting.This is because Daxia strictly restricts overseas trading of iron materials, otherwise the gap will be even greater.

If the iron smelting technology is improved and the amount of iron produced is increased, not only can the production of many iron wares in the Great Xia Dynasty be greatly increased, but trade with neighboring countries in exchange for war horses and other things can also take advantage of it.

Jiang Yifan shook his head: "It's not about improving the efficiency of iron smelting."

Jin Rong glared at him immediately, which probably meant: Since it has nothing to do with iron smelting, how excited are you?Mr. Liu, I have seen a lot of new appliances in the past few years, not bad for one or two!

Jiang Yifan ignored Jin Rong's dissatisfaction, and continued: "If the steam engine can be made, it will not only be used in iron smelting, but many industries can benefit from it. The effect is so great that it is unimaginable that even It will allow the Great Xia Dynasty to remain invincible in all the years to come, and let all countries far and near look up to them."

Jiang Yifan's cake painting is big enough, while Jin Rong and Hu Jing yearn for it, they also show suspicion.

"But there is a premise, there must be a time for the steam engine to be continuously improved and improved." Jiang Yifan said, this is what he wanted to say, what he has yet to show, the preliminary outline, industrial development and restrictions idea.

Jin Rong was stunned, and said: "As long as there are benefits you mentioned, we have time, ten years, or 20 years?... 30 years, this, the time is a bit long. You must at least let me see the result." right?"

Jiang Yifan was helpless, this Jin Rong, for such a big matter, he didn't do it properly.

"It's a matter of future generations, so of course we need to be more patient." Jiang Yifan was very annoyed.

He clearly remembered what Ye Xinyan told him, that a group or a few groups of people on the other side of the ocean, relying on this thing and corresponding policies, allowed the backward barbarian land to rapidly develop to a height that was unattainable by the Celestial Dynasty .

At that time, there will be no such thing as a celestial dynasty, and there will be only excess without resistance, humiliation of being trampled by others, and helpless struggle.

But he can't say these words, he can only tell them in a way that Jin Rong and Hu Jing can understand.

Jin Rong's expression restrained slightly, and he spread his hands and said, "You have to speak clearly so that we can understand, right?" As he spoke, he thought of what Jiang Yifan had just said, and was very suspicious, "It's just a tool, why does it involve Qianqiu? Bandai? Are you talking nonsense?"

As he spoke, he even reached out, intending to touch Jiang Yifan's forehead to see if he had a fever.

Jiang Yifan angrily slapped him away: "Don't talk nonsense about things you don't understand!"

Hongzhi, who was standing beside him, rolled his eyes and looked up at the sky. He didn't see the fight between the gods.

Shi Yu and Shi Shu twitched the corners of their mouths, sir, you are almost 30 years old now, not the boy who fought with people in the capital.King Yu's current status is not ordinary, how dare you say that.Besides, that hand might be the dragon's claw in the future, can you really keep shooting it?
This matter, I have to talk to my grandma when I go back, and I have to take care of my uncle, so I should have more scruples.

Hu Jing was not too surprised by Jiang Yifan's actions, but she opened her mouth in time to divert the two people's attention: "Since Yuan Fan said that, there must be a reason for him. Yuan Fan, please explain to the old man first."

Jiang Yifan despised King Yu's ignorance, and even patted the dragon's claw, but he didn't realize it at all, and glanced at Jin Rong triumphantly.His daughter-in-law is a god from thousands of years later, that's why he has such insight, Jin Rong, you can be your prince and emperor well, and just admit cowardice in other things.

After he was satisfied, he turned to the picture on the table.

He pointed to the position of the crankshaft in the picture, and while drawing a circle along the running track of the crankshaft, he said: "The main output part of this machine is here. The internal structure and transmission principle of the machine are relatively complicated. Let's not talk about it. Look at this rotating shaft. After the machine is running, this crankshaft will rotate, which will generate a lot of force. Extend this rotation, and you can do many things.”

Jiang Yifan described to Jin Rong and Hu Jing what Ye Xinyan had told him.

For example, the power generated by the steam engine, through connection and output, can make many spinning machines rotate together, with uniform and stable force, which can not only increase the spinning efficiency by dozens of times, but also make the spun threads more high-quality.

There are also wheels driven by steam engines, which can drive heavy enough vehicles to gallop...
