The villain powerful minister pitted his tech house

Chapter 248 Let There Be Light!
With Fu Xuan's financial support, the research on the power system has not stopped, and has been proceeding at an extremely fast speed.

High speed, of course, also means burning money.

Hubu Shangshu had approached Fu Xuan once or twice, just for this matter.

"No more funding for the research institute?" Fu Xuan looked at the Minister of the Household Department.

"Yes." The Minister of the Ministry of Finance nodded affirmatively, "Your Majesty, I think that this research institute is ignorant all day long, and those who seek out the camp are just heretics. Make the most of it.

The research institute spent 50 taels of silver from the national treasury and raised the status of these craftsmen, which is contrary to common sense and should not be advocated. "

"A seat for Aiqing." Fu Xuan didn't answer right away, but offered tea to the Minister of the Household Department, "You really think so?"

Hubu Shangshu respectfully and firmly replied: "Report to the emperor, yes!"

Fu Xuan's tone was light, and he threw a bombshell at the Minister of the Household Department: "The rice that can produce [-] catties per mu was produced by the research institute."

puff--

The water that Shangshu Tobu drank from his mouth sprayed out from his nose.

The rice seeds that the whole court was guessing were actually produced by the research institute!

They had made various guesses before, and the most absurd guess was that the emperor's hard work and love for the people moved the world.

"In this case, it is understandable for the research institute to spend so much silver."

Shang Shu's face can change as soon as he says it changes

Fu Xuan rested his chin on his hands, and looked at Shangshu Hubu's appearance of three points of surprise, three points of shock, and four points of picking up a big deal, feeling both familiar and funny.

"Your Majesty, can I dare to ask what this research institute is doing now?"

Fu Xuan: "No."

Hubu Shangshu: ...

With full support, the research institute finally sent good news—the first generator was built!

After the success of the first dynamo, was the telegraph the first experiment?
No, it's a light bulb.

After the generator is out, there are still problems such as low voltage and easy failure. It is already very good to be able to light the bulb.

These light bulbs were only a few carbon filament light bulbs made by Song Shushu using many methods.

When the generator was officially started, all the craftsmen were waiting for this moment, and the blacksmiths who were destined to be poached next door also stood by, listening to the roaring sound of the machine turning in their ears, and looking at the light bulb without blinking their eyes.

Sizzling, the sound of electricity.

The surrounding windows were lowered, and a handful of lights came on in the dimly lit room.

"It's done, it's done?"

Someone asked in disbelief at this time.

The electric lights were not as bright as those of later generations, but the orange light gave great encouragement to everyone.

Unexpectedly, they actually produced electricity!Light is also created!

Two months of hard work paid off!

The crowd cried with joy.

"Yes!" Song Shushu also nodded excitedly, and said in agreement: "The next thing we need to do is to increase and stabilize the voltage, how to stabilize the power supply, how to transmit power to all parts of the country with the least loss, and the trial operation of the telegraph. ...Wait for the question!"

As soon as the voice fell, the whole room was silent for a moment.

Then, Song Shushu was carried out by his subordinates.

carried out...

"Dean, take a rest first, it's very stuffy in there."

Song Shushu: "...do you still remember who paid you wages?"

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, and carried Song Shushu back.

Song Shushu: Hmph, it's lawless!
