Li Yu and Li Qiu took the ice cubes just made, playing with them in their hands, feeling the coolness of the ice cubes, and looking towards Li An very much.

“Minister Li, this is really amazing. You can make ice cubes in summer. What did you just pour into the water?”

Li Yu asked excitedly.

“It’s saltpetre! Haven’t you seen Prince of Guangping? Very common thing!”

Li An looked relaxed.

“Saltpetite? It’s that simple, just add saltpeter to the water to make ice cubes?”

Both Li Yu and Li Qiu were shocked. They didn’t expect that making ice cubes would be so simple. It only needs saltpeter and water. It can’t be more simple.

“Yes! I accidentally poured saltpeter into the water, and found that the water was frozen, and then I knew that using saltpeter can make ice, the principle is so simple, there are many inventions, in fact, it is a summary of life, more observation Life can always invent many interesting things, ice making is one of them. “

Li An smiled easily and gave a lesson to 2 people.

Looking at the shocked expression on the two people, Li An told them the detailed process of making ice and told them that the ice cubes in the large pottery basin were mixed with nitrite, but they could not be eaten, but they could be used to cool the room. It becomes cooler. In addition, after these inedible ice cubes are turned into water and dried in the sun, you can get intact saltpetre and can be used to make ice again.

In other words, saltpeter is reusable and can be used continuously to make ice cubes, so that the whole summer is full of cool breath.

“Minister Li, since saltpetre can be reused, is the cost of this ice making extremely low? Even ordinary ordinary people can afford it and can enjoy the coolness of summer.”

Li Qiu said.

“Yes, the price of saltpeter is not expensive. I also have a lot of saltpetre deposits in Great Tang. I spread the ice-making method and really benefited the 100 surnames. It is better that you 2 donate this method to Your Majesty and promote it to all The world, so, you have become heroes of Great Tang. “

Li An spoke suggested.

“Minister Li, how can this be done? This ice-making method is what you discovered, how can we grab the credit of others? We are not that kind of person, we will tell Your Majesty that the method of ice-making is discovered by Minister Li , Your Majesty will be very happy. “

Li Yu and Li Qiu also attach great importance to fame, and naturally do not do such a thing.

“Okay! As you please, this is really not too important, just let the 100 people in the world profit.”

Li An doesn’t care about this either. In fact, if blockade technology and use saltpetre to make ice, Li An may be able to make a fortune, but Li An’s industry can already provide very considerable income, and does not need the ice making industry, and Ice making is only possible to make money in the hot season, and because the production process is too simple, the ice cubes made cannot last for a long time, it is easy to melt, and it is easy to learn.

Instead of letting a few people learn and use ice to make money for the old 100 surnames, it is better to directly tell the technology to all 100 surnames, so that all 100 surnames can be manufactured, or after a small number of vendors make large quantities, they can only use relatively inexpensive The price is sold because there are too many people at the meeting, and the price will naturally not go up.

In order to let Li Yu and Li Qiu experience the thrill of later ice cream, Li An found tools to smash the ice cubes into crumbs, pour honey, milk and other condiments, and then filled 3 small bowls.

“Ask for ice cream.”

Li An picked up a bowl of his own and ate it happily.

“Ice cream? The taste is really good. Minister Li is really a personal talent. It’s a pity not to be a master chef! Haha!”

Li Yu is full of praise for the taste of ice cream, but just after eating a few bites, I thought of the funny rumors circulating among the ministers.

This paragraph is about Li An. It is caused by Li An ’s cooking. Although everyone really praises Li An ’s good cooking skills, in the era of Great Tang, it ’s a kind of harboring to praise the officials ’good cooking skills. Malicious intentions and the meaning of making fun, of course, Li An does not care, and, proudly.

Of course, there are a lot of high-ranking officials in Great Tang, and there are also funny parts. For example, Right Chancellor Li Linfu is called ‘Minister of Revenue Assistant Minister’. Ministry of Revenue Assistant Minister Xiao Jiong is called ‘Fu Hunting’ Assistant Minister ‘Wait, etc., have become boring people’s talk after dinner.

Li An feels that even if he is called the ‘Cooking Assistant Minister’, it is much stronger than the ‘Nongzhang Prime Minister’ and the ‘Fu Hunting Assistant Minister’.

After all, cooking by yourself is also a skill, it is better than writing typos!

After eating a small bowl of ice cream, Li Yu and Li Qiu were all addicted and asked to make more, they have n’t eaten enough yet.

“Ice cream is too cold, and eating too much is bad for your health. Just eating a bowl just now is enough. You can’t eat any more.”

Li An explained softly.

“Cool air? It’s such a hot day, and I’m afraid of the cold air, I’m almost hot.”

Li Yu and Li Qiu cannot understand.

“The hotter the weather, the more it is necessary to prevent cold air from entering the body. If there is too much cold air, it will consume the yang energy too much and make people sick. Do I still lie to you, am I so bad and so stingy?

Li An is really worried about their bodies. After all, Emperor’s grandchildren are not in good health. Once they get cold and fall ill, when the time comes, even if they have 1000, 100 mouths, I am afraid they are powerless.

“Minister Li, good news! The steam engine test was successful.”

Just then, an official in charge of the Research & Development Center ran over and said excitedly.

“It’s a miracle that it came out so quickly! Let’s go and show me.”

Li An was so excited that he directly ignored Li Yu and Li Qiu and followed the officials to the Research & Development Center.

Li Yu and Li Qiu looked back at Li An in amazement, looked at each other, strode followed along, anyway, idle is also idle, it is better to look at the lively.

After entering the Research & Development Center, Li An went straight to the direction of the Research & Development section of the steam engine and walked at a trot speed.

“Minister Li, you see, the testing machine has been in continuous motion and has been running for a while, and no parts are damaged.”

An official was excitedly introduced.

Watching the piston doing reciprocating motion and driving a large group of gears and shafts, Li An’s mood is extremely exciting. The guy who is very difficult for him is actually made, and, more than he expected It’s much earlier.

In particular, the strength of the parts, the accuracy of the size, and the difficult problems of the sealing of the steam engine have been solved by these skilled craftsmen.

There are some technical methods to solve the problem, which shocked Li An’s future generations and felt incredible.

The ancients were very clever and mastered many technologies that were not known to future generations, but only because ancient technologies were family-style. Once they encounter wars and other disasters, they are likely to be lost. So, the descendants naturally cannot imagine the ancients What exactly has been done.

For example, the stone of the pyramid is so huge, how was it built in the era without cranes, why ca n’t even a thin metal piece be inserted into the joints, how the Great Wall was built, and many unsolved mysteries, It cannot be explained with common sense.

This can only show that as a future generation, you do n’t understand some advanced technologies in ancient times, so you will always find out how it is possible to move such a huge stone without a certain machine, no advanced measuring instruments, how It may be done so precisely.

A series of doubts are because most of the technologies owned by the ancients were lost, some were due to wars, some were due to their low value, and were naturally eliminated by the times. In short, the ancient technology we know is only very small Most of the technology is lost.

‘haha! Great Tang has finally made a steam engine. If one day crosses back and hears someone saying that Tang Dynasty’s technology cannot make a steam engine, he must come up with this evidence and fiercely hit him in the face, hmph! ‘

Li An fell into a fantasy, and he slowly recovered for a long time.

“You have done a very good job. This Official will report Your Majesty faithfully and give you credit. Now that the steam engine has been built, the next step is to research and develop the steam locomotive and steam ship. This Official is waiting for you. Good news, in addition, This Official will work hard with you, Research & Development with you. “

Li An said excitedly.

“Hey…”

All the craftsmen shouted in excitement. After several months of Research & Development and learning, they had a deeper understanding of the related knowledge of steam engines and trains. Naturally, after the success of Train Research & Development, they naturally understood the Great Tang Empire. What it means, so, it seems very enthusiastic and excited.

Li Yu and Li Qiu also have a little understanding of this knowledge, but because he not at all participated in Research & Development, for this reason, he did not understand enough, watching the piston drive the gear to reciprocate, it seems a bit ignorant, after all, Not quite clear about the principle.

After an in-depth study, after having successfully tested the steam engine, Li An was in a great mood and was amazed by the skillfulness of the craftsmen.

After Li Yu and Li Qiu left, they immediately informed Li Longji about the invention of nitrite ice making by Li An, and suggested to promote it nationwide to benefit the Great Tang 100 surname.

Li Longji was very happy after hearing about it, but he really could n’t believe it. After all, the technique of making ice cubes was too simple. For this reason, Li Yu and Li Qiu deliberately made the experiment. He wanted See for yourself how the saltpeter makes ice.

Li Yu and Li Qiu watched Li An make ice cubes with their own eyes and understood all the processes and principles. After starting this experiment, it was naturally easy. In a short time, in the face of Li Longji, The ice cubes were made, and the tools were used to shave the ice and pour honey and dairy products to make ice cream.

After the delicious ice cream was imported, Li Longji was very happy and immediately ordered the method of making ice to be promoted throughout the country, but the method of making ice cream was not promoted. After all, Great Tang is far less powerful than later generations, let the old 100 people eat these. Nutritious things are not conducive to the long-term development of the Great Tang Empire.

After tasting the ice cream, Li An came to the palace with the help of all the technicians. Li Longji was even more happy when he heard that the steam engine test was successful, although he did not know much about the steam engine.

Rewards and awards must be indispensable. Now that the treasury has more and more money, Li Longji’s small treasury has also stepped up step by step. When there is money, it is naturally willing to spend money.

Now that the steam engine model has been successfully tested, Research & Development of the steam locomotive is also in full swing. It is estimated that it will be successful soon.

In this case, various types of cars will naturally start to be manufactured. The technical content of the cars is more than a little lower than that of steam locomotives, and the difficulty of manufacturing does not have to be worried at all.

Although the internal facilities of Li An’s car are different, the overall size and specifications are the same, which is convenient for assembly at any time to change the composition of the car.

In addition to the Imperial Family carriages that were carefully crafted for Emperor, Li An also has to create several standardized conventional carriages, that is, well-known carriages with different needs such as soft beds, soft seats, and hard seats.

Emperor ’s needs are first place. Although Li An has created luxurious 5 cars for Emperor, this is because the locomotive has not been built and the power is very insufficient. Nowadays, the steam locomotive is coming out. In this case, let Emperor It is too shabby to sit in 5 carriages. It needs at least 5 or 1 to be able to accommodate more maidens, Court Eunuch, guards and ministers. At the same time, Emperor’s activity space can also be larger.

Li An first asked craftsmen to manufacture Emperor’s exclusive ten-carriage carriages, and was prepared to merge with the original five carriages to form a luxury scale of ten or five carriages.

After manufacturing these ten cars, mass production of various types of passenger and freight cars began.

The freight car is too simple, and it has no technical content. Of course, because the materials to be transported are different, the car also has nuances. Some materials do not need the roof. Cover it with a rain cloth, but some cars need cars. The roof is fully protected, and some goods are afraid of pressure, requiring that there be enough racks in the carriage to place these goods.

Passenger carriages are seated. According to different economic strengths, the carriages need to be divided into grades. The best and most comfortable ones are, of course, soft sleepers and hard sleepers. In addition, there are soft seats and hard seats. Of course, Li An also plans to Build cars without seats, so that more manpower can be transported, and the price can be cheaper, so that some poor people can also ride the train.

The soft sleeper car is the highest class car. For this reason, this car is only allocated to 20 places, divided into 4 small rooms, each of which enters the 6 sides of the passage, each has bunk beds, which can accommodate 2 people living together, Moreover, the bed is wide enough and there is a small coffee table at the end of the passage. Inside the coffee table is the Glassware window, so you can clearly see the scenery outside.

Moreover, the lower berth can also be used as a sofa. If the four people on the two sides of the upper and lower bunks know each other, they can sit together in the lower berth and chat happily while looking at the scenery outside the window.
