A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1457: Addicted to Experiments

Shen Kuo.

Many people don't know what this person did specifically, but they just remember a concept: this person was a very good scientist in ancient times.

And his most famous work is Mengxi Bi Tan.

However, the drowned expert Shen in front of him was trembling at the moment. While trembling, he smiled at Shen An. Looking at his excited look, it was clear that he had met his idol.

"Ah!" Today's temperature is suitable, but the water is still cold, but Shen Kuo is still smiling, "Mr. Shen, do you dare to ask that..."

"Take him to change clothes and find a brazier. Thank you very much."

Shen An was very polite, and the sergeant beside him said over and over again: "It's just a small matter, it's just a small matter. How can a county official be so polite?"

Shen Kuo was taken away. Shen An was sitting there in a daze and suddenly laughed.

"What a great scientist! Let's talk about it in Mengxi's writing!"

He cast the hook again, and this time it went smoothly, and soon a fish was hooked.

"Energy!"

Shen An lifted the fishing rod and immediately felt the bounce. It was quite exciting!

When is the happiest time to fish?

It's now.

Shen An struggled with the fish for a while before dragging it to the shore.

"Well, Baojiu, use the net bag to get the fish up!"

A big fish weighing at least six or seven kilograms!

Li Baojiu didn't know whether he didn't understand or what, so he drew his long knife and walked over.

The light of the sword flashed past, and Shen An had a black line on his head.

The long knife accurately decapitated the big fish. The huge fish head was still hanging on the fishing hook, but the fish body slid into the water.

Li Baojiu was so surprised that he picked up the long knife and stabbed it. He actually hit the side of the fish, and then dragged it back.

He picked up the fish body and turned around to smile at Shen An, a very pure smile. The depression he felt a while ago gradually dissipated.

Many of the family members of the leading generals in Xixia are in Xingqing Mansion, and they exist like hostages.

This is the case with Li Baojiu's wife and children.

After returning from the northwest, he felt sad for a long time, saying that his wife and children must have been killed by Liang.

"Don't worry, half of Xixia has gone, and there are constant internal disputes. The Liang family is not stupid, and your wife and children will be fine."

When Shen An said this, his tone was very determined.

Li Baojiu stared blankly at the water and just sighed.

During this period of time, he had been learning Song Dynasty dialect from Chen Luo and the others, and gradually he became somewhat fluent in speaking it, but it was a bit awkward after all.

"Thank you, sir."

This is a good statement, but the tone is a little weird.

The sergeant on the side suddenly said: "You don't believe it?"

Li Baojiu wanted to shake his head, but he was not good at lying, so he felt a little uncomfortable.

The sergeant laughed and said: "The Duke is very famous in the northwest. Xixia is in danger now. How can it still be the opponent of the Song Dynasty? The Duke will definitely go to the last battle. By then, if someone touches your Wife and children, aren’t they afraid of the Duke’s revenge? You must know that the Duke convinces others with his virtue!”

Li Baojiu understood most of it and felt excited, but in the end he did not dare to have high hopes.

"Peace of mind."

Shen An said calmly: "If something happens to your wife and children, whoever did it will pay back ten times."

"Thank you, sir."

Shen Kuo came out later, and Shen An simply asked someone to set up a stove nearby, and then made a fish head hotpot himself.

While drinking the fine wine and eating the rich fish head, Shen An also learned about Shen Kuo's fate.

His father was an official, so it was his father's influence to become an official. This was a characteristic of the Song Dynasty, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Later, he worked at the bottom for a few years, and then went to his brother's place to prepare for the exam, and assisted his brother by the way. He was considered a practical low-level official.

Four years ago, he won the imperial examination, and his official career was going smoothly. Now he is editing and editing books at Zhaowenkan. The full title of his official position is "editor and editor of Zhaowenkan books". As the name suggests, his job is to sort and proofread books.

This job may seem inconspicuous, but after all, it’s in Zhaowen Hall!

"Xiaguan heard about the Duke's affairs when he was in the local area. I was also lucky enough to see the Shenwei Crossbow. It is really exquisitely constructed and amazing."

Shen Kuo then asked Shen An about some principles of the Shenwei Crossbow.

The sergeant who was watching the fire immediately stood up and said, "My lord, that is a military secret."

Shen An nodded, and after the sergeant passed by later, he told Shen Kuo some ideas for the Shenwei Crossbow.

Others need to keep it secret, but Shen Kuo doesn't.

"I have heard of your name." Seeing Shen Kuo's uneasiness, Shen An comforted him: "I am a person who likes to do practical things. Just do your work in Zhaowen Hall."

Shen Kuo stood up and said expectantly: "My lord, if you are free, can I go to Yulin Lane to visit and ask for advice?"

This guy seems to really like to study.

Shen An smiled and said, "Of course you can."

"Thank you, Lord Commander."

Shen Kuo was very excited, and Shen An was in a good mood.

This guy is a master of science!

But later he spent more time on his official career.

Such people, if used properly, can be a great help to miscellaneous studies.

Shen An moved slightly, then chatted with Shen Kuo for a while, and then went back with the fish.

After he left, Shen Kuo couldn't help laughing.

A sergeant asked: "Why is Commander Shen so happy?"

Shen Kuo said happily: "I like miscellaneous studies, but I have never been able to get started and study hard. I feel sorry for it. Today, Duke Shen promised me that I can go to Yulin Lane to ask for advice. This is the way to get a glimpse of miscellaneous studies. How can I not be happy? Haha. Ha ha!"

When a fisherman nearby heard what he said, he said, "Isn't that what miscellaneous studies are all about? It's good to have learned them, but such ecstasy is a bit too much."

Shen Kuo frowned and said, "That miscellany covers everything. Not to mention the mighty crossbow, but do you know the secrets inside an iron stove?"

The man shook his head, and Shen Kuo sighed: "I know that you don't know, and I didn't know it before. I thought it would be troublesome, but Duke Shen made it clear in just a few words. If there is a fire in the stove, it will burn the surroundings." When the gas is heated, the gas will expand when it is hot, and the expansion will become lighter, and it will naturally move upward. But what is the use of the furnace mouth below? Those coals need gas to burn, what will happen if there is no gas in the stove? ?Won’t the fire go out?”

The miscellaneous studies conducted experiments in Bianliang before. Everyone had a vague understanding of these concepts, but they found them very interesting.

Shen Kuo said excitedly: "The Duke also put forward an idea, that is, if the air in the stove escapes, the outside air will come in along the mouth of the stove, and then be sent out by the heat, and the cycle will go back and forth... But there is something inside Something, the Duke said it was because of the pressure difference, which is a wonderful way to say it! I can’t wait to go home and try it.”

"Isn't that the water-sucking one that the Duke made before?"

Well!

Shen Kuo, a rustic, was immediately educated by the people of Bianliang.

"Did the Duke actually come up with something like this a long time ago to verify it?"

At that time, Yu Street was full of experiments with negative pressure water absorption, which was used to attract customers to come in and buy things.

So the people of Bianliang were deeply impressed by this and directly crushed Shen Kuo.

"Sure enough, we are a great generation. I will go home and give it a try right away."

Shen Kuo returned home impatiently. Regardless of his family's questions, he threw the fish catch in the yard and ran into the house to conduct experiments.

"Don't disturb someone!"

His first wife has passed away, and now he is still alone, but at ease.

There were sounds coming from the house from time to time.

"Wonderful!"

"How could this be possible? It turns out to be the Duke of the county. This discovery is intoxicating."

He had been doing experiments in the house, and when it was time for dinner, the servant shouted outside: "Lang Jun, it's time to eat."

"Stop making noise! ​​Don't eat!"

It wasn't until night fell that Shen Kuo left the house.

"It is indeed the qi that the Duke said. Once the qi is burned out, it will be different from the outside, and the outside qi will rush in. These seemingly miraculous methods are actually just miscellaneous knowledge!"

Shen Kuo stood in the yard and said excitedly: "I understand!"

A young scientist who likes to think about all things suddenly unlocks a mystery of nature. His excitement is truly indescribable.

"Why are you so noisy at night? Are you keeping people awake?"

There was yelling and cursing outside, but Shen Kuo was happy in his heart and didn't take it seriously.

Shen An was woken up at this moment.

"Lang Jun, the soldiers in the academy said that there are people testing around at night."

Chen Luo rubbed his hands, feeling so cold.

"Interesting." Shen An just smiled.

The next day he asked Wen Xiaozhong to go to the academy.

"Lang Jun, someone is staring at the academy, and he is staring at the back of the academy, where is the laboratory."

Shen An was taking a walk after breakfast, and all he needed was a bird cage to carry.

He said calmly: "The two great kings are about to go to the academy. They will go to check out the places. They will definitely take action. If they can steal something, it may be very valuable. By the way, it will also make the officials feel that the academy is not safe. Those Didn’t people suggest that the testing of gunpowder should be placed under the jurisdiction of the military or the Imperial City Department? Now it’s safe.”

"It's a pity that they don't know that a certain country soldier is placed in the academy, and they don't know that the methods of the country soldiers can give them nightmares. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net "

Shen An said disdainfully: "Keep an eye on it. If you find that they are planning to take action, come and report it quickly. I will go and sit in person to see who is so brave. Damn it, I will give him nightmares."

"Mr. Lang."

Zhao Wuwu put his hands in his sleeves and walked over with his body slightly tilted back, "The little lady is worried."

Guo Guo's recent homework was very good. Shen An was very happy and gave her a short vacation.

"Didn't she just go out to a party yesterday? Why is she worried again?"

Zhao Wuwu said: "It is said that Wang Ding'er's grandfather was so angry that he vomited blood."

Are you worried about your friends?

"Speak clearly."

Shen An glanced at her and immediately looked away.

This woman is so sensitive that she covers her breasts with her hands for no apparent reason, thinking that her brother is trying to tease her.

Sure enough, Zhao Wuwu covered his chest with his hands and took a step back, and then said: "Wang Shuo is a direct bachelor of Tianzhang Pavilion and is in charge of a group of ministers. A few days ago, a minister said that the two kings were taken out of the palace by officials. Didn't the official family forcefully go to Daming Mansion last time, so the two kings followed suit... In the end, he said that if the official family continued like this, he would be the second emperor of Sui Yang in the future. Wang Shuo scolded this person after hearing this, but this But Wang Shuo was so angry that he vomited blood."

Tsk tsk!

At such an advanced age, it’s really not worth it to be angry and vomiting blood when meeting such subordinates!

Shen An didn't want to care about this matter, and then went to the study.

"elder brother……"

"Why!"

Shen An covered his head.
