Da Qin: At the age of six, I beat Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 197

It is no secret that Zhao Gao came from Zhaodi.

His surname was not Zhao originally, but he was just serving Yingzheng considerately, because Zhao Di was given the surname Zhao because of his origin.

This incident is recorded in many history books.

Looking at it now, it seems that there is something else hidden?It seems that Zhao Gao was not only born in Zhao, but also a direct descendant of the Zhao royal family?

Otherwise, how could he be Zhao Chuan's uncle?
Even, Qin Mu suspects that Zhao Gao's entry into the palace was not just because he had nowhere to go, but there may be a secret behind the downfall of the Zhao royal family!
Otherwise, Zhao Chuan and others would never have hated him so much!

Of course, Zhao Chuan definitely wouldn't talk about the twists and turns.

However, it doesn't matter anymore!Zhao Gao is dead, no matter how many stories there are behind him, so what?
While the few people were talking, several apprentice blacksmiths had already dug out the cast mold from the sand with ease.

Qin Mu left Zhao Chuan and stepped forward to untie the mold.

After a dozen or so attempts, I finally had a barely usable shell.

This is an almost cylindrical semi-enclosed iron barrel with a hole underneath.

Qin Mu patted the iron bucket, and said to the apprentice blacksmith, "Go and get the things you prepared earlier."

He had asked Li Hei to make a set of accessories, including pistons, connecting rods, and condensing devices.

Although crude, it was only the first experimental steam engine after all, and Qin Mu did not have such high requirements.

Soon, with the cooperation of several apprentices and under Qin Mu's command, the steam engine was assembled smoothly.

Qin Mu asked the apprentice to add water, and then lit a fire with coal in the hole below.

During this process, neither Feng Bao nor Mr. Zhao Chuan nor Mr. Hu interrupted him.

Needless to say, Feng Bao, Zhao Chuan and Mr. Hu have also heard a lot about Qin Mu's deeds, knowing that he often has some amazing inventions, so they didn't bother him.

There was even a sense of anticipation in their hearts.

Especially Zhao Chuan, who seemed a little too excited.

As the coal burned, the sound of hot water boiling began to be heard in the steam engine.

After a while, the connecting rod of the steam engine finally started to shake slowly!

As the water gets hotter, the connecting rod shakes faster and faster!

And Zhao Chuan's eyes became brighter and brighter with the movement of the connecting rod!
He couldn't figure out why the top started to move when the fire started below, but this didn't stop him from feeling that Qin Mu was powerful.

Even, the more he couldn't figure it out, the more he felt that Qin Mu was a magical person!
After thinking about it, he was about to grab the connecting rod, wanting to test how strong this thing was.

"Zhao..."

Before Qin Mu could speak, Zhao Chuan had already grasped the connecting rod with confidence.

Although Zhao Chuan looks gentle and doesn't seem to have much strength, but don't forget, he is the direct descendant of King Zhao!

The royal family of Zhao has always attached great importance to martial arts.Every child of the royal family, in addition to studying, must also practice martial arts, especially riding and archery, before they reach adulthood.

Therefore, Zhao Chuan only looks weak, but in fact, he can be regarded as a little master in the Jianghu.

Of course, you can't beat the guards of Yuehuying, but one-on-one, you should be able to completely abuse Liu Bang.

And the steam engine, in Zhao Chuan's eyes, is just a novelty.It is a miracle that such a thing can move. Who would have thought that its strength is much greater than that of normal people?

So, as soon as Zhao Chuan held his hand, he was taken flying by the steam engine without any precaution.

His body was swaying in the air, like a weird flag, swaying directly.

Shocked, Zhao Chuan hurriedly sent his hand away, but under the influence of inertia, he had already flown out thinking about the distance.

He floated a full foot or two in the air before he landed on the ground with a plop.

Everyone present opened their mouths in unison.

After Zhao Chuan got up, he hurried to the steam engine without caring about his dusty body.

The strength of this thing was beyond his expectations!What exactly is going on?

He looked at the heavy iron shell of the steam engine, and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

"Zhao Chuan..."

Qin Mu finished calling his name this time, but he still couldn't stop Zhao Chuan.

Therefore, Qin Mu could only watch Zhao Chuan jump three feet high, holding his hand and blowing upwards continuously.

But, it's already too late.On his hand, a string of dense and huge blisters could be seen with the naked eye.

Qin Mu sighed, Zhao Chuan was so reckless, how could he still act like a child at such an adult?
How much water is in this steam engine?He didn't even think about it, how high the temperature must be to boil so much water?
And how fast does something like iron conduct heat?Not to mention touching it, even if you stand by it for a while, you will feel unbearably hot...

"What a warrior!"

Qin Mu silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart.

Mr. Hu sighed.

Gongzi Chuan has always been extremely stable in front of the bereaved family of Zhao State. Why did he become more and more reckless when he arrived in Xianyang?
Zhao Chuan finally stopped his wailing at this moment, his eyes still full of fear.

"Young master Qin, why are you so hot?"

Qin Mu angrily pointed to the lower part of the steam engine, where the raging flames were still dancing.

"You can't see that there is a fire underneath? Besides, the water inside is boiling. Don't you know how hot the hot water is?"

Zhao Chuan shook his head violently: "No! No! I think that with such a thick shell on the outside, no matter how hot the inside is, the outside shouldn't be able to feel it..."

Qin Mu smiled helplessly.

Zhao Chuan immediately asked: "Young Master Qin, you have too much strength! I have a lot of strength, but just now I have no resistance! My whole body flew up!"

Qin Mu didn't know either.

The capacity of a steam engine depends on the amount of water inside on the one hand, and on its design and airtightness on the other hand.

A well-made steam engine can even drive a whole train forward!

When these things don't have a lathe, they can only be made by blacksmiths, so Qin Mu doesn't have much confidence.

He thought for a while, and asked Dian Wei to carry a few big rocks with his men.

He first picked a stone about five hundred catties and placed it in front of the connecting rod.

I saw that the machine pushed it away easily.

Then Qin Mu continued to increase the weight, until the weight reached a thousand catties, and then he felt a little bit of difficulty.

Qin Mu shook his head, dissatisfied.

For a real steam engine, let alone a thousand gold, even tens of thousands or one hundred thousand catties, it is no longer a problem.

How much does a train weigh?

However, after all, it is in Daqin, so it is not bad to have such a success in the first step.

If you want to optimize it later, you can only increase the volume and hone Li Tie's craftsmanship.

At this stage, about one thousand catties is enough.
