Chapter 243 Black Technology
Yang Reform thought about it for a while, and felt that he had to find something to do for his black technology base. This Taoist religion can’t always be superstitious. With this in mind, Yang Reform began to fool and educate his own leader of the science and technology education.

"Zhang Xianyong."

"The minister is here." Zhang Xianyong replied honestly.

"Did you understand what I talked with that Tang Ruowang just now?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I...didn't understand a single word..." Zhang Xianyong never dared to say that he understood or understood some of the truth about this question, but he didn't interrupt a word just now.If you can understand a little bit, you won't even have the capital to participate in the discussion.

"I know you don't understand, but I understand..." Yang Reform said in his heart, if you, a superstitious fellow, can understand this, the sun must come out from the west.

"...Zhang Xianyong, take this and take a closer look..." Yang Reform handed the glass tube to Wang Chengen, who then handed it to Zhang Xianyong.

Zhang Xianyong looked at the glass tube again and again, but he really didn't see any tricks, and said: "Return to Your Majesty, such pure glass must be produced by Liulizhai, other people can't make such pure glass..."

"..." Yang Reform was speechless, Liulizhai is his family business, I don't know better than you?Want you to say?
"Do you see the use of this thing? It's not that it was made." Yang Reform began to educate his black technology leader.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I remember that Your Majesty and the Yiren missionary said that you can measure the temperature of water. However, Your Majesty also said, is it faster to test it with your hands than with this pipe? So I think this thing is useless... ..." Zhang Xianyong finally found something to say.

"Hmph...you remember this. Let me ask you, ordinary warm water is fine. Do you also put your hand into boiling water to try it? If it is poisonous water, or water that corrodes human hands, you can also put your hand into it. Go in and try it?" Yang Reform was very contemptuous, this is water, if it is sulfuric acid, it is a poisonous liquid, you guys are also good at trying it?Really a pig's head.

"This..." Zhang Xianyong didn't have anything to say anymore, he thought to himself: Isn't boiling water steaming from above?We can see that we will definitely not try it with our hands!As for the poisonous water, you should be able to smell it...

"What I mean is that Tang Ruowang said just now that the air in the glass tube will expand when it is heated, and it will become smaller when it is cooled. Therefore, some water is needed to fill the reduced part. Therefore, this The water level in the glass tube will rise, do you understand this phenomenon?" Yang Reform continued to explain.

"This...my minister, I really don't understand..." How could Zhang Xianyong understand this? All he understood was chanting mantras, drawing talismans, meditating, and how to fool others with takeout.

"Forget it, I told you that you don't understand. Forget it, take this thing back and test it out, see if what Tang Ruowang said is true or not, and see what you can research." Yang Reform originally wanted to hand over the thermometer to Taoism, but it seemed that Taoism would not understand this, so it had to do it by itself.

Yang Reform felt that since the thermometer came out, he should improve it by himself. During this period of time, Yang Reform planned to take some time to concentrate on making some inventions, such as the distiller for purifying alcohol, and the separation device for refining oil. Pagoda or something, these few things are still relatively important, as long as I provide ideas, skilled craftsmen, there are plenty in my inner court.

Yang Reform also thought in his heart that this Taoism really needs to be reformed, otherwise, it will be very useless!Otherwise, the work of studying thermometers can be completely handed over to Taoism.

"I obey." Zhang Xianyong didn't get any favors from the emperor, and it was a bit of a blow to his nose.I can only say goodbye with the glass tube given by the emperor.

"Wait, since you're here, let's take two of those telescopes back. Although this kind of telescope is not an astronomical telescope, it can still be used to observe celestial bodies. There is a booklet called "Telescope" on the principle of this kind of telescope. Mirror Talk, you should also take it back to study and study. If you don’t have the time and energy to study it alone, then let the entire Taoist study it, and try to study this "Dragon Mirror Talk" thoroughly. It is the task I gave you to Taoism What Yang Reform wants is to transform Taoism into Scientology, and become the center of his own black technology. Unfortunately, this Taoism is not effective. In addition to engaging in superstition, Yang Reform can only give them the most basic scientific research books. , let them learn slowly.Therefore, Yang Reform gave Taoism the first learning task.

"The minister leads the decree, must let the Taoists carefully understand the principles in this book. You must study this thoroughly." Zhang Xianyong has made up his mind, he must understand this, otherwise, next time he meets that barbarian If you are a missionary, don't you want to be an accompanying guest again?

"By the way, the magnifying glass I gave you last time can magnify small things. One character becomes as big as two characters. I just thought, if this magnifying glass can magnify this word three times, or even thirty times , or three hundred times, you say, will you see a magical world? Didn’t the Buddha say that there are three thousand worlds and one hundred thousand living beings in a drop of water? We can’t see anything in a drop of water, but, I Thinking, if we use a magnifying glass to magnify it to [-] or [-] times, we should be able to see clearly what is inside. Zhang Zhenren, do you think this proposal is very interesting? The principle of it should be This magnifying glass is the key to making a telescope." Yang Reform assigned the first manufacturing task to his science and technology center.

"Ah!..." Zhang Xianyong didn't know what to say, the emperor's mind was really hard to guess!However, the emperor's proposal obviously hit Zhang Xianyong's curiosity. To be honest, in China, Taoism and Buddhism are integrated with each other. Taoism is no stranger to Buddhist allusions and scriptures. The emperor said Thinking of this, he naturally understood what was going on, and his interest greatly increased. If he could really look at the [-] creatures in a drop of water that the Buddha said, Zhang Xianyong felt that he had not lived in vain. Practice is more exciting, after all, seeing is believing, much more reliable than that misty longevity.

"The poor Daoist takes orders, and he will definitely study with the Taoists what His Majesty said, and give His Majesty an explanation." Zhang Xianyong knew what the emperor meant, that he wanted Taoism to do some seemingly inconceivable things and pass on the Dao of God and Man. One thing, it can be regarded as a beginning, Zhang Xianyong himself is also interested, so he agreed immediately.

"Okay, I won't keep you here. If you are short of money to study these things, you can get some from me. In addition, if you need glass, you can use my name in Liulizhai. They will accommodate you." .” Yang Reform’s investment in technology has never been stingy.

"Thank you for your majesty's gift. If there is no reward from your majesty, I don't know where to get glass. A little money is not worth mentioning. I don't dare to bother your majesty. I still have some money left..." Zhang Xianyong thanked the emperor for giving For their convenience, they dare not accept the emperor's money. Their Taoism is not so poor that they can't even afford this little money.

……

"Big companion, let's go to the Imperial College, it will take a lot of time!" I was supposed to go to the Imperial College today, but was delayed by two monks.

"I obey, Your Majesty." Wang Cheng'en had reminded the emperor long ago, but the emperor had been unable to get away, and had no choice but to wait. Now that he was finally free, he could finally go to the Imperial College.

Yang Reform gave his own science and technology center today, the first lesson of Taoism, the first science book, and the first manufacturing task. I hope this Taoism will not let me down. From a superstitious religion to a A Scientology.Engage in black technology for yourself, promote historical changes, save your own life, and change the fate of the Ming Dynasty. The seventeenth century was the era of rapid development of science and technology. If you miss this era, the land of China will soon sink.

……

The common people are always kind. When they heard that the emperor was traveling, they all came to watch. When they saw the emperor's motorcade passing by, they knelt down and shouted long live. The momentum was so loud that half of Beijing could hear it.

Now this emperor is a rare good emperor in the world. He is clear and upright, cares about the people, and benefits the people. Not to mention the fact that Wei Zhongxian was overthrown. "Don't give up, don't abandon", as long as the people have the emperor in their hearts, the emperor will never give up any of his subjects. Such an emperor is loved by the people. What they think in their hearts is that they can enjoy the emperor even if they suffer disaster that day. Never giving up on promises, the people's attitude towards the emperor has never been so close.

It was the first time for Yang Reform to enjoy such treatment. He used to stay at home every day, or he came out in casual clothes. Unexpectedly, the people in ancient times were so enthusiastic about the emperor.

Yang Reform really wanted to stick his head out to see what was going on outside, but thinking about it, he would have to go out in casual clothes in the future, so he would avoid showing his face in this way, otherwise, he would be recognized by others as soon as he left the palace in the future Come on, how uncomfortable, Yang Reform can only hold back from looking at the outside situation, thinking about when to install glass on this window, and then paint it, so that he can see the outside situation.

It was an unexpected thing for the people to shout long live, which shocked the senior officials of the entire Beijing city. This powerful shout made many people jump with fear. I thought it was Donglu who was calling, because the emperor had speculated that Donglu might enter the pass.

As a result, some people started to pack up their belongings secretly, and if the preparations were not right, they would leave. For those who were more determined, they quickly sent someone to see what happened...

In the yamen of the Ministry of War, Liu Yanyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, was drinking tea leisurely, waiting to go home from work, when he suddenly heard shouts from the north, and was so frightened that he threw his teacups on the ground, thinking that there was a rebellion there and broke into the capital.But think about it wrong!The walls of this capital city are several feet high, and there are countless soldiers. How could it be possible to break through without making a sound like this?Immediately call someone to see what's going on!
Liu Yanyuan has already summoned the big and small heads of the Ministry of War, servants, Yuanwailang, a lot of them, and they are waiting anxiously. Something is wrong!All of them looked anxious.

Not long after, the people who went to check came back and reported that it was the common people who saw His Majesty's convoy passing by, thanked His Majesty Zeji for the common people, and fell to the ground one after another, shouting long live.

All the officials, big and small, had abnormal expressions. Why did the emperor's reputation soar all of a sudden?Just going out for a while, even if Wanmin shouted and knelt down the street, the sound shook the capital, this reputation and prestige is too high...

Outside the gate of the Imperial College, everyone had been waiting for a long time. After more than an hour, their legs were numb. They thought that the emperor would not come... The loud shout that resounded through half of Beijing just now shocked them a lot. Hurry up and send someone to find out what's going on. When I asked, it turned out that the emperor's motorcade passed by, and the people shouted long live. The people outside the Imperial Prison peeped at each other, and they were shocked. It deeply shocked their hearts.

When we arrived at the Imperial College, the street was blocked, and the shouting and kneeling of the common people came to an end.

"Chen Guozijian sacrificed wine and Lin Qian led the Guozijian to kowtow to my emperor, long live my emperor." Lin Qian is 50 years old, an old man with a bit stubborn personality and good spirits.

A large group of people behind also kowtowed: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live..." Although the voice was loud, it was not enough to see the scene of thousands of people kneeling and shouting along the street just now.

"Stay flat." Yang Reform said.Everyone got up.

Under Lin Qian's leadership, Yang Reform made a formal visit to the Imperial College, which was quite different from the last time he came here pretending to be casual.

"You are Lin Qian? Guozijian offering wine?" Yang Reform asked curiously. When he came to Guozijian, it was because of this person that he didn't show up. That's why Li Ruolian was persuaded by two pigs to lend usury in Guozijian. After all, I have something to do with this Guozijian's financial resources. Now that Guozijian has become a big money-gatherer, Yang Reform is also somewhat interested in this guy. The ones that Wei Zhongxian didn't honor, that is to say, the ones who are officials and have a bit of backbone, can be investigated. If they can be included, Yang Reform doesn't mind including them.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the minister is Lin Qian, who is currently the Imperial College Jijiu." Lin Qian is 50 years old this year.The spirit is still hale and hearty, and when he speaks, his voice is very loud.

"Hehe, what's the word? Jinshi of that year? People from there?" Yang Reform began his own caring Dafa.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, my name is Shifu, Shenzong Bingchen Jinshi and No.3, and his ancestral home is Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian Province." Lin Yan explained proudly, it is indeed an honor to be ranked third in the Jinshi examination. something to be proud of.

"No.3? Tanhua..., hehe, not bad, not bad..." Yang Reform was surprised that this old man was actually a Tanhua, and Xiao Li Feidao's image of the handsome Tanhua was blown away by this old man.

"...Quanzhou, Fujian? Hehe, not bad! Recently, a famous person came out of Fujian, named Zheng Zhilong, have you heard of Tanhua?" Yang Reform's recent emigration may involve Taiwan in the future, so he pays close attention to Zheng Zhilong, Knowing that Zheng Zhilong is also from Fujian, I didn't expect to meet a Fujianese who might be recruited here.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Zhilong? Your Majesty means Zheng Zhilong? I have heard that he is a tycoon on the water and a pirate leader. I have nothing to do with him. However, he is indeed from Fujian and from Quanzhou Prefecture, but he It’s Nan’an, and my minister is Tong’an, so it’s far away from him.” Lin Qian was very reluctant that the emperor would compare a pirate leader with him.He quickly explained that he was not from Zheng Zhilong's hometown, and that Tong'an and Nan'an were definitely not the same county.

Yang Reform smiled and said: "Hehe, there are many talented people in Quanzhou! Don't look down on him like this. I'm going to recruit him. Maybe, when the time comes, you can still be officials in the same court."

Lin Qian was so angry that the emperor brought him together with some kind of pirate leader. He didn't know what he was trying to do. You must know that he was born as a Jinshi and was a Tanhua, and Zheng Zhilong was a pirate leader. How could they talk together?Still serving as an official in the same dynasty?Lin Qian wanted to bang his head against the wall.The only thing to say.That is, they are all from Quanzhou, and this cannot be avoided. Who told them that both parents were born in Quanzhou, and they are very embarrassed right now.

Looking at this angry and stubborn old man, Yang Reform even started to play tricks. If Zheng Zhilong came to the capital in the future, Yang Reform would let this old man receive him. Evil" smiled.

Lin Qian was "smiled" by the emperor, and got goosebumps from laughing.Fortunately, the emperor didn't ask any more questions.

It has to be said that the Guozijian occupies a very large area, with towering ancient trees and shade trees, and there are many houses, which are more than enough to accommodate thousands of people to study. From the number of these houses, we can see that the people who studied here There are so many, Yang Reform hopes that the Guozijian will return to the previous scene, with tens of thousands of people studying.Of course, you have to pay to get in.This is the source of wealth.

"Lin Qian, how many people are there in this Guozijian?" Looking at these houses, if they are all filled, it is all money!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are nearly 2000 people currently studying in the Imperial College, including those Jinshi. Excluding Jinshi, there are still [-] people. At present, there are still many people studying in prison." It’s like eating flies. This is selling officials in disguise. Jinshi like Lin Qian looks down on this kind of practice. However, now that the court needs a large sum of money for disaster relief, Lin Qian has to hold his nose and accept it. Otherwise, with his attitude, he will definitely oppose this approach. However, whenever he sees the white money flowing in, Lin Qian feels a sense of satisfaction. Anyway, his Guozijian is now brilliant again. Well, in the past, with the notoriety of the Imperial College, Lin Qian was ashamed to tell others that he was from the Imperial College. People come in by donating money, but Lin Qian believes that as long as he educates himself strictly, those who can get out of the Imperial College are all learned and reliable people.
