Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 579

"My lord, is this okay?" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen suspiciously, and asked in disbelief.

Earlier, Zhao Wen had personally told him that the most suitable insulating material for wires was rubber. Now that Zhao Wen asked him to test the sackcloth soaked in tung oil, Song Yingxing was a little worried.

This is electricity, and it is no different from the lightning in the sky in essence. If something goes wrong, what should we do?

"This method should work. You can do what I said first. Although the rubber may not come back in the short term, it won't be too long. During the period when the rubber doesn't come back, you can Experiment with it this way.

By the way, in addition to these, I will give you some drawings of machine tools driven by electricity and drawings of light bulbs.Today, generators have been successfully manufactured, and it will not be long before electric machine tools can be produced. At that time, many things can be manufactured with these electric machine tools, and light bulbs should also be manufactured. "

In Zhao Wen's vision, the streets and alleys of Xuanzhen should be filled with street lights.

In today's era, because of the backwardness of lighting tools, people basically return to their homes to sleep at night.

When it is just dark in later generations, nightlife has just begun.

As soon as Zhao Wen thought of the scene of the later generations sitting around the roadside stalls and eating skewers, he felt itchy in his heart.

Skewers must be done at night, and there is no such artistic conception during the day.

Don't look at it as a small skewer, there is a lot of knowledge in it.

Skewers can consume a lot of beef and mutton, which can bring a lot of profits to the herdsmen who raise cattle and sheep, and vendors who sell skewers can also make a lot of money.

In addition to these, additional taxes can be increased, and the night life of the people in Xuanzhen can be enriched.

If managed properly, the tax revenue generated by this alone can cover the cost of generating electricity.

This is a good thing that serves multiple purposes. Zhao Wen has no reason not to support such a thing.

"Light bulb? But the light bulb that my lord told me about before?" Song Yingxing asked.

Zhao Wen nodded, "You are right, it is the light bulb I told you about before. At that time, I explained the light bulb to you in detail. After I go back this time, I will give you the detailed drawings of the light bulb and Find out the manufacturing method, and then you can slowly produce according to the drawings and production methods I gave you."

"If that's the case, then I'll just wait for your lord's arrangement!" Song Yingxing cupped his hands at Zhao Wengong and said seriously.

"I won't bother you anymore. I'll hang around here. You can handle your own affairs!" Zhao Wen waved at Song Yingxing, and then took Li Xiaosan around the ironworks.

Zhao Wen was walking on the concrete road in the ironworks. He looked at the chimneys erected in the ironworks that kept emitting black smoke, and muttered to himself: "Nowadays, there are no more than one kiln mouth in the ironworks. Thousands of kilns, these kiln mouths emit countless black smoke every day. Fortunately, there is no pollution in this era. This black smoke is nothing.

However, you can't just let it go.After going back later, we must plan these ironworks carefully. "

Zhao Wen came to the outside of an iron-smelting kiln. This iron-smelting kiln smelts rails. The rails that were successfully smelted and cooled down were placed on the small square next to the kiln entrance by the workers inside.

A lot of rails have been placed on this small square, and after the Chinese New Year, these rails will be transported to Shanxi.

Although it is winter now, the workers inside are wearing single clothes.

Working in this environment, even wearing unlined clothes will not feel cold.

The work in the ironworks is very hard, but the workers here are happy and happy, and they don't feel any hard work at all.

These workers basically escaped from Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places in the past. It is an honor for them to work here, not to mention that the wages of working in an iron factory are not low.

"After the electricity is completely spread out, I can start smelting aluminum. When the aluminum is smelted, the time is ripe in the future, and maybe I can manufacture airplanes.

Although it is a bit far away now, there is still a dream, what if it comes true? The more Zhao Wen thought about it, the more excited he became. He seemed to have seen the scene of himself flying a plane.

Industrial aluminum smelting is electrolysis, which can smelt aluminum quickly and on a large scale.

Before this method appeared, the replacement method was used for smelting, but the cost of this method was so high that it was even higher than the value of gold.

If it weren't for this reason, the short emperor who made Europa panic would not be so fond of aluminum products.

Aluminum is a good aviation material, especially aluminum-magnesium alloy, which is an indispensable material for aviation.

Li Xiaosan stood beside Zhao Wen. He looked at Zhao Wen who was excited and murmured to himself, and muttered in a puzzled voice, "What kind of chicken is a flying chicken? Chickens can fly too, but they don't fly very high. , I don’t know what kind of chicken the adult is talking about!”

Although Li Xiaosan's voice was very small, it was still heard by Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen looked at Li Xiaosan with a smile, and said with a smile: "This plane is not a chicken like a rooster or a hen, it is a means of transportation that is even more powerful than a train.

The train can only run on the ground, but this plane can fly in the sky, and it can also fly with people.If it is possible to manufacture an airplane, I will definitely take you to see it! "

"My lord, isn't this the method of a god? Aren't all those who can fly in the sky are gods? Ordinary people like me can also fly in the sky?" Li Xiaosan looked at Zhao Wen dumbfounded.

"Who told you that all flying in the sky are gods? If the plane is really manufactured, even people who don't know a single word can fly in the sky!" Zhao Wen laughed.

"It's not a fairy who can fly in the sky?" Li Xiaosan muttered twice in shock.

"My lord, there is auspiciousness, there is auspiciousness!" At this moment, a soldier who ran out of the General Military Mansion came to Zhao Wen's place sweating profusely.

He stopped in front of Zhao Wen, panting heavily.

"My lord, there is auspiciousness, there is auspiciousness!" the soldier shouted at Zhao Wen out of breath.

Zhao Wen was slightly taken aback, "Auspicious? What auspicious?"

Zhao Wen comes from a later generation, and he dare not sneer at the auspiciousness of this era, but he still has reservations.

In Zhao Wen's impression, those ancient auspicious signs were nothing more than things used to flatter the ruler's feet.

Now that Zhao Wen is about to ascend the throne as emperor, someone suddenly came to say that there is auspiciousness, and Zhao Wen knew what was going on without even thinking about it.

"Auspiciousness? Where is there any auspiciousness in this world? Didn't I tell you before, don't do these ambiguous things and keep your feet on the ground." Zhao Wen was a little annoyed.

Zhao Wen didn't want to turn the officials of Xuanzhen into flatterers just because he was about to become emperor.

"My lord, it's really auspicious. It was brought back from Sichuan by Lord Wang Qiwang's subordinates. Before that, Lord Wang Qiwang sent a large number of spies to Sichuan, Shaanxi, Henan and other places according to your order.

This morning, a returning team from Sichuan walked down the train station in Xuan Town with a few iron cages. As soon as they got out of the station, people gathered in the train station to watch.

In order to send these auspicious signs back in time, these people had no choice but to ask the defenders around the train station to get a few carriages, put these auspicious signs on the carriages, covered them with red cloth and sent them to the small square outside the General Military Mansion. .

If you don't do this, I'm afraid there is no way to get back in time from the train station to the General Military Mansion. "The soldier took a deep breath and explained to Zhao Wen in detail.

Hearing the soldier's voice, Zhao Wen frowned tightly.

"You said Xiangrui was sent from Sichuan? Have you seen what it looks like?" Zhao Wen suddenly thought of the kind of divine beast of later generations, but according to what the soldier said, he couldn't be [-]% sure.

"Returning to the adults, the cage where Xiangrui was locked was tightly packed by the red cloth boy, and the little one didn't see it. The people who escorted Xiangrui didn't tell the villain what it was like.

Now Xiangrui is placed on the square outside the General Military Mansion, surrounded by a lot of people, if Master Liu didn't say that no one is allowed to open and announce it before he comes back, the villain would probably have seen it. "The soldier hurriedly replied.

"Could it really be that kind of beast? If it's really that kind of beast, it can be regarded as auspicious!" Zhao Wen secretly thought, and then became a little excited.

"I see, Xiaosan, let's go, go back first, let me see what kind of auspicious this auspicious auspicious is!" Zhao Wen said, turning around and running outside the ironworks.

While running, Zhao Wen thought to himself, "If it's really that divine beast, even if it's not auspicious, it's worth it, and it's worth nothing!"

The more Zhao Wen thought about it, the more excited he became, and finally ran straight away.

After a while, Zhao Wen ran outside the ironworks. He rode a bicycle and kept pedaling in the direction of the General Military Mansion.

Zhao Wen's speed was very fast, and it didn't take long for Zhao Wen to arrive at the small square outside the General Military Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the small square, Zhao Wen saw a large group of people surrounding the small square.

At the forefront of the crowd stood soldiers maintaining order.

These soldiers protected the iron cages wrapped in red cloth in the middle of the square, and no one was allowed to approach them.

The surrounding crowd looked at the iron cage wrapped in red cloth in the center of the square, their faces were full of excitement.

"What kind of auspiciousness is this?"

"I don't know, maybe it's a unicorn? As the saying goes, when a sage comes out, a unicorn appears. Now that the Chief Soldier is a saint, it's no surprise that a unicorn appears!"

The people around were discussing a lot, talking about auspicious things.

Liu Wenzhong, Hong Chengchou, and Wang Qi stood beside the iron cage wrapped in red cloth, and kept wandering around the iron cage. As for Chen Xinjia, he was left alone.

Zhao Wen jumped off his bicycle, and he didn't even care about holding on to the bicycle before diving into the crowd.

Li Xiaosan followed closely behind Zhao Wen, shouting: "Master Chief Soldier is here, get out of the way!"

When everyone heard that the commander-in-chief was coming, they hurriedly looked back.

When they saw the excited Zhao Wen, they hurriedly made way for Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen passed through the crowd and came to an iron cage.

"My lord, this is Xiangrui!" Liu Wenzhong rushed up to greet him, and pointed to the iron cage in front of Zhao Wen.

"My lord, here is the auspiciousness, which was brought back by the spies I sent to Sichuan. It is said that it took a lot of means to get these auspiciousnesses." Standing behind Liu Wenzhong, Wang Qi shouted loudly.

Zhao Wen nodded, did not answer them, and walked directly in front of an iron cage.

Zhao Wen pinched a corner of the red cloth, took a deep breath, and slowly pulled the red cloth away.

"I hope that gold will not be exchanged. If it is true that gold will not be exchanged, then it can be called auspicious!" Zhao Wen muttered in a low voice, and slowly pulled the red cloth away.

The surrounding crowd stared at Zhao Wen's hand, not daring to relax for a moment.

"Huh!" Zhao Wen let out a long breath, and suddenly pulled the red cloth away from his hand.

"Wow, is this Xiangrui? This is too much!"

"Why do I think this thing is a bit ugly?"

"How ugly? It's beautiful!"

The people around looked at Xiangrui in the iron cage, and there were discussions with different expressions.

"Sure enough, it's the big treasure that doesn't change gold!" Zhao Wen threw the red cloth in his hand on the ground, looking at Xiangrui in the cage, his face was full of excitement.

Throwing into the cage, I saw a black and white beast lying in the cage, a pair of eyes with black circles kept looking at the surrounding scene.

If a person of later generations stands here, he will definitely see that this thing is the national treasure giant panda that is popular all over the world in later generations.

"Haha, haha, sure enough, sure enough." Zhao Wen laughed loudly, and then pulled away all the remaining red cloth.

Not surprisingly, the cages were filled with giant pandas.

"Gold does not change, hey, giant panda!" Zhao Wen squatted next to an iron cage, looking at the giant panda inside, his face was full of excitement.

Liu Wenzhong looked at the panda in the cage, and asked with some doubts: "Your Excellency, do you know Xiangrui?"

"My lord, this kind of thing is only black and white. According to my subordinates, this kind of beast is called an iron-eating beast, a silver dog, or a bamboo bear in the local area. It likes to eat bamboo, and occasionally eats bamboo rats. Although it looks like a blind bear, But the color of his body is only black and white, and he is not as aggressive as Xiong Xiazi." Wang Qi stood behind Zhao Wen and explained in detail.

Zhao Wen smiled and said: "Hey, how can Xiong Xiazi compare with it? This thing is priceless!"

Zhao Wen's eyes were always on the panda and never left.

"From now on, I'll call it Jinbuchang. Grandma, I didn't expect that one day I would be able to raise pandas. If this happens in later generations, I will be sentenced to six or seven or eight years!" Zhao Wen teased the giant panda in the cage, His face was full of excitement.

Zhao Wen's voice was not too low, and Liu Wenzhong and Wang Qi could also hear it, but after hearing Zhao Wen's strange words, they all chose to shut up.

"A real man should mount a horse to fight on the battlefield, and dismount to walk pandas in the countryside. In future generations, I will not even dare to think about such a thing. Hehe, this is great, I can also walk pandas in an open and aboveboard!" Zhao Wen looked excited Looking at the panda in the cage, he almost had a snot bubble.

　In the past few days, I have suffered from chronic pharyngitis, which is a little serious. I can't eat, and I vomit when I eat, so I went to the hospital.After I came back, because I didn’t eat for a day, my head was a little dazed. I can only update one chapter today. I’m really sorry!
