Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 651

Zhao Wen sat in the main hall of Kunning Palace and gathered all his wives and children together.

Now Zhao Wen has only two daughters-in-law, and there is no intrigue in the harem, so he can eat in peace.

Zhao Wen sat at a big round table full of food, Li Xiaoying sat on his right, and to the right was Hai Lanzhu.

As for his son and daughter, they were placed on his left, with his eldest son closest to him.

Now that Zhao Wen has ascended the throne, some rules cannot be easily changed even by Zhao Wen.

A casserole filled with black chicken soup was placed on the table. Zhao Wen took a spoon and made a bowl for each of Li Xiaoying and Hai Lanzhu.

Black-bone chicken soup is a great tonic, and it is still very good for Li Xiaoying and Hai Lanzhu who are about to produce.

The whole family sat here quietly, eating and chatting about homework.

After eating, Zhao Wen went back to the imperial study to deal with political affairs.

The land in Zhao Wen's hands is getting bigger and bigger, and Zhao Wen has to deal with more and more things every day. Although there are the Senate and the Military Academy, Zhao Wen can completely avoid doing things himself.However, Zhao Wen felt that he was the founding emperor, and he dared not say that he was better than Zhu Yuanzhang in terms of diligence, but he could not be worse than Jiajing.

The sun outside the window was getting darker and darker, Chen Donglai ordered someone to light the candles in the palace.

At dusk, Song Yingxing came to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the construction of the power plant has been completed. The main transmission lines in the city have also been completed during the construction of the power plant. The lines in the palace have also been laid when the palace was built. The lines in the various factories have also been laid. Your Majesty before We have already installed all the street lights in the streets and alleys of Xuan Town.

In another day or two, when the power plant is fully operational, it is estimated that these street lights will be able to illuminate Xuan Town. "The first thing Song Yingxing said when he saw Zhao Wen was to introduce the power plant.

Zhao Wen put down the brush in his hand, his face relaxed a lot.

Once the power plant is built, there will be a steady stream of electricity.With electricity, Zhao Wen can do many things, at least the electric welding machine is not far away.

After the welding machine is out, you can start making wood-burning cars.With wood-burning cars, transportation will be much more convenient, and there is no need to rely entirely on trains.

Moreover, with electricity, Zhao Wen can use electricity to improve the iron-smelting furnace, smelt higher-quality steel, and even smelt aluminum.

By that time, building ironclad ships will no longer be empty talk.

Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing with a smile, "Yes, yes, the power plant is extremely important to us. Although it is just a small power plant, the energy contained in it cannot be underestimated.

By the way, what happened to the wood-burning car and telegraph I had sent to you earlier?Have you started researching yet? "

"Return to Your Majesty!" The joy on Song Yingxing's face was replaced by sadness. "Your Majesty, the research has not yet started. Recently, I have been busy building a power plant.

However, I read the blueprints of the wood-burning car and the blueprint of the telegraph machine. His Majesty told me about the electric welding machine and the blueprint of the electric welding machine. After the electric welding machine is manufactured, it will not be difficult to manufacture the wood-burning car.

The most difficult thing about a wood-burning car is the engine on it. As for the telegraph machine, the blueprint given by the adults is also very clear, so it will not be too difficult.Even if there is no electric welding machine, the traditional welding and casting process can also be used to manufacture wood-burning cars, but the speed will be much slower and the yield will be low.

Because I have been busy with the power plant for a while, I didn't start it. Please forgive me, Your Majesty! "

"It doesn't matter, it's okay to start researching on diesel-burning cars after the power plant is fully manufactured, Ai Qing doesn't have to do that.

Now that the power plant has been successfully built, how about it, Aiqing will notify me when the power plant is officially in operation, and I will go and have a look. " Zhao Wen said.

Zhao Wen would not blame Song Yingxing for not researching wood-burning cars and telegraphs. After all, Song Yingxing's research institute was the busiest of all the departments in Xuanzhen.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Song Yingxing thanked him.

Two days later, Zhao Wen arrived at the power plant outside Xuanzhen City with his entourage after being notified by Song Yingxing.

Because the power plant pollutes a lot, Zhao Wen asked Song Yingxing to set up the power plant outside the city.

Electricity poles for power transmission have been erected in Xuan Town today. Because Zhao Wen owns a cement factory, all the electric poles in Xuan Town are now cement poles.

Because of the existence of Zhao Wen, the transmission line is a very mature design once it comes out.

Even the voltage specifications, Zhao Wen also followed the voltage specifications of later generations.

Compared with the transmission lines of later generations, it is somewhat backward.

Zhao Wen stood outside the gate of the power plant. Accompanied by Song Yingxing and the stewards of the power plant, he walked into the power plant.

At this time, the power plant has everything ready, and everything needed to generate electricity is already available.

Zhao Wen came to the outside of the workshop of a power plant and looked at the busy workers inside, with a smile on his face.

It is not easy for Zhao Wen to get the power plant out in this era.

"Your Majesty, it is estimated that in half an hour, the power plant will be able to generate electricity. Yesterday, I had the workers in the power plant conduct a trial operation. In order to prevent mistakes, I did not let people connect the line. Just tested it in a power plant.

Yesterday's trial operation was perfect, so there is no need to conduct trial operation today.Once everything is ready, it's time to run. "Song Yingxing stood behind Zhao Wen, pointed at the busy workers in the workshop, and said to Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen nodded, "You did a good job, very rigorous."

"Your Majesty, please rest in the lounge for a while, and it won't be too late when the power plant officially starts working." Song Yingxing said to Zhao Wen.

"Listen to your arrangement!" Zhao Wen was noncommittal, followed Song Yingxing's arrangement and came to the lounge.

The resting place is not far from the workshop of the power plant, that is, a distance of dozens of steps.

This is the staff dormitory building. There are three buildings in total, and each building has about seven floors.

There is an electric light hanging in each room, and the lounge Song Yingxing arranged for Zhao Wen is the largest room on the first floor of the first building.

Zhao Wen sat quietly in the lounge, looking at the electric lights above his head.

The light was quietly hung on the roof by a wire, and there was a wooden switch connected to the light.

Now Zhao Wen may not be able to manufacture the advanced switches of later generations, but for the relatively backward pull rope switches, Zhao Wen can still be manufactured by others. After all, this thing has no technical content, and it belongs to the kind that can be seen at a glance. understand something.

If there is any difference from the pull rope switches of later generations, it is estimated that the material is only different.One is wood and one is plastic.After all, Zhao Wen has no way to get the plastic out now.

Zhao Wen looked at the electric light above his head, quietly waiting for the light to turn on.

At the same time, the steam engine in the power plant has started to work.

Driven by the steam, the steam engine began to run at high speed, and the high-speed steam engine drove the generator, which also started to run at high speed.

When the operation of the generator tended to be stable, Song Yingxing asked someone to open the control valve.

The control valve controls the connection between the generator and the line. When the generator is running stably, you only need to open the control valve to connect the external line to the generator line.

The control valve is also a switch designed by Zhao Wen, which is used to control the main valve connected to the generator and the line.

Zhao Wen sat quietly in the lounge when a burst of light suddenly radiated from the light bulb.

Because it is daytime, the light is not very bright.

"Haha, it's successful, it's successful." Zhao Wen looked at the light above his head and laughed.

Although it was just a small electric light, it represented that Xuanzhen had entered the era of electricity.

Chen Donglai, who was standing next to Zhao Wen, had never seen or heard of such a thing.

He looked at the electric lights above his head, as if seeing a miracle, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

"Is this a miracle? Is this the trick of a god?" Chen Donglai trembled and was about to kneel on the ground.

Zhao Wen stood up and looked at the lamp above his head with a smile, "Don't kneel, what kind of miracle is this? It's just an electric lamp that I asked Song Yingxing to make."

"It's Your Majesty!" Chen Donglai looked at Zhao Wen in disbelief, and suddenly remembered the rumors in Xuan Town.

At this moment, Chen Donglai became more certain about those rumors.

"It is rumored that His Majesty is a god above the Nine Heavens. Now it seems that it is true. Your Majesty must be a God above the Nine Heavens. Otherwise, how could such a fairy trick be possible? There is no candle, and there is no flame, and this lamp is still like this. Brightness, not even the best candles can compare with it."

Chen Donglai kept thinking in his heart. At this moment, he felt more and more that the Zhao Wen in front of him was so unfathomable.

Zhao Wen walked to the door, grabbed the rope of the pull rope switch, and pulled it lightly.

With a click, the light went off.

Zhao Wen looked at Chen Donglai, "Come here, I will teach you how to use this thing now. There are also these electric lights in the palace, but because the power plant has not been successfully built at that time, no electric lights were installed. Start the installation. At that time, if no one can do it."

When Chen Donglai heard that Zhao Wen wanted to teach him personally, he immediately became cautious.

For a person like Chen Donglai who has been a slave for most of his life, it is a great honor to be taught by Zhao Wen himself. If he can't do it in the future and leaves the palace, it is also a capital to brag to others.

Chen Donglai walked up to Zhao Wen, not daring to stand up straight, bent over, and looked at Zhao Wen attentively.

"This rope is the switch of the electric light. The light is off now, and then lightly pulled, and the light turns on." Zhao Wen said as he pulled the rope lightly in his hand, and the light that had gone out turned on again.

"After the light is on, if you pull it again, it will go out." Zhao Wen said and pulled the rope in his hand again, and the light went out again.

Chen Donglai kept all this in his heart.

"It's not difficult, as long as it's an individual. Have you made it down now?" Zhao Wen looked at Chen Donglai.

Chen Donglai nodded, "Return to Your Majesty, I have already remembered."

"Just remember, let's go outside with me." Zhao Wen said and turned off the lights again, and then walked out with Chen Donglai.

Chen Donglai was not the only person who came with Zhao Wen. Because of his status and the size of the lounge, the others could only wait outside.

After Zhao Wen walked out of the lounge, the attendants standing on both sides of the lounge rushed up to greet him and guarded Zhao Wen in the center.

Zhao Wen didn't take two steps out of the dormitory building, and saw Song Yingxing greeted him with a smile on his face.

Song Yingxing walked up to Zhao Wen, bowed, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the power plant is operating normally. Just now, I have turned on the main switch of the street lights in Xuanzhen City, and asked someone to check it. It won't be long. , they can come back.”

In this era, Zhao Wenzheng does not have a photosensitive switch, so it is impossible to realize that street lights can be turned on at night without human control.

Ever since, Zhao Wen asked Song Yingxing to put the main switch of the street lights in the power plant.

Under each street lamp, there is a separate switch. This switch is placed inside the street lamp and is usually locked with an iron lock. It is mainly used when replacing street lamp bulbs at night.

"Leaving this aside, although the main power transmission lines have been laid out in Xuan Town, except for the imperial palace, various factories, and various government offices in the city, it seems that the people's homes have not laid out lines, right?" Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing.

"Return to Your Majesty, because time is urgent, the people's homes are not wired." Song Yingxing replied truthfully.

"This is not acceptable, electric lights are something that benefits the people, and all the homes of the common people in the city must be wired and installed with electric lights in time.

In addition to Guoxuan Town, major cities in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, Sichuan, Nuergan, Taiyuan Island, and Java are also starting to build power plants.After the world is pacified, major cities in all provinces will also build power plants and lay out lines.

After all these places are arranged, the power plant and electric lights will be popularized.

There is no need to worry about these places at the moment, but plans and preparations for construction must be made.

Once Xuanzhen has laid out all the lines, use Xuanzhen as a model to build power plants and lay out lines in the places I just mentioned.

By the way, in addition to this, another lamp factory will be built for the manufacture of electric lamps.There are also electric wire factories, generator factories, and wood-burning automobile factories. These factories must also start preparations. Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing in front of him, and kept talking about future plans.

Song Yingxing listened to Zhao Wen's voice quietly. Although Zhao Wen said a lot, Song Yingxing was not dissatisfied at all.

For someone like Song Yingxing who loves research, asking them to stop is the greatest pain.

　Thank you for stopping and waiting, LYG for your reward, thank you for your support! ! !
　　Because it is a book city, there will be some delays here, please don't blame me! ! !
