The Empress’s Gigolo

Five days before the new year.

"Teacher, teacher, we succeeded, moved! Moved!" Ren Baqian sat in the room and heard the students yelling outside the window.

Ren Baqian closed the books in his hand. He always kept an eye on the progress of these students, and thought he would be earlier.

I just adjusted the connecting rod of the steam engine and installed the wheels. I did not expect that it would be successful after nearly two months.

It is said that there are many people and great strength, and the ancient people are indeed very powerful, but it can be slow in this matter.

However, among so many students, there are quite a lot of hind legs, such as Tonglan. If they are removed, it is estimated that they can be half a month earlier.

When Ren Baqian was still in the room, he could hear the cheers of many students coming from the backyard, walking back with his hands behind him, and seeing dozens of people around a huge tractor ...

Well, it is really a tractor. The overall appearance and the tractor I saw when I was eight thousand years old are extremely imaginary, but they are rougher and simpler.

The cylindrical steam engine is at the front with an exhaust pipe on it. .

At the back is an empty iron plate, which is full of coal. A person stands on top of it and continuously adds coal to the front stove. The stove then heats the water tank, and the steam is continuously sent through the upper connection pipe Into the front cylinder.

At the same time, these students also made use of the characteristics of water and steam conversion, and made a diversion tube under the cylinder to send the cooled water from the lower diversion tube back to the water tank.

As for the lower part, there are two large flywheels plus six tapered flywheels. It is no longer the first to be connected with animal muscles, but replaced with metal connecting rods.

When Ren Baqian arrived, Du Laoliu was ashamed and shirtless, adding coal to the stove.

"It's moving!" Many students are cheering: "So long, I finally succeeded in a steam car that can be moved without manpower!"

Whether it was the best student Shi Gan, or the worst cranes, the second generation of officials, or the civilian students, they were all excited at this time.

Even those blacksmiths and carpenters who had been brought in by the copper earthquake field to help in the school, stood by their arms while watching their masterpieces! After all, this steam car also has their hard work.

"Get out of here, get out of here, the car is going to speed up!" Du Laoliu shouted towards the crowd in front of him, adding coal to the stove without stopping, while still laughing with excitement.

"This is the first steam car since it opened the world. Of course, I have to drive it! Hahahaha!"

"Fool!" Tong Lan sat on a stone outside the crowd, and immediately laughed when Du Lao Liu laughed. "This thing cannot turn!"

Ren Baqian, who had just arrived, heard the murmur of Tonglan, and then looked at the glorious Du Lao Liu standing on the steam car, and suddenly showed his sympathy.

You caused the first traffic accident with the first steam car since the ground was broken!

As many students gave way, the speed of the steam car also began to accelerate. As the steam car moved forward, the dirt was flying behind.

The wheels of the steam car pressed two grooves directly into the ground.

Then the speed of the steam car started to accelerate, from about the speed of walking to the speed of trotting, and slammed into the opposite courtyard wall!

"Ah, hey? How does this thing turn? Drive!" Seeing that he hit the wall, Du Lao remembered it, but he couldn't find it when he tried to pull the reins. He hurriedly hurriedly "driving" They all shouted, but the steam car was still unmoved and bumped towards the courtyard wall.

There was a sound of brick and stone collapse, and the steam car hit the courtyard wall and continued to move outside.

The school is on the east side of the palace and on the north side of Beihong District. This place is rarely visited. Only a few passing palace guards stopped and looked at the strange thing that came out of the school and walked across the road. Hit the courtyard wall of the old Shiqing Mansion of Dali!

The courtyard walls of the Shiqing Mansion are all rock formations, which are much stronger than the walls of the institution. The steam car with the efforts of many students of the institution hit the walls of the Shifu courtyard and made a huge crash, and it crashed out. A small gap did not break open.

Shi Fu suddenly looked like a horse honeycomb. A dozen brawny men with large round waists jumped to the wall and stared at the murderer who dared to attack Shi Fu.

Du Laoliu, who was gray-faced and suddenly faced, seemed to be stared at by more than a dozen fierce beasts, sweating from the top of his head, smiling at the guilty conscience of everyone: "This is what Shi Gan made."

Talking and pointing back.

A bunch of students are running out of the gap.

"Brothers, it was an accident!" Shi Gan rushed forward to explain.

"It was a steam car we made, but something unexpected happened."

Shi dare to explain that the eyes of the people finally eased.

"Come back." Shi Qing didn't know when he came out of the wall and waved.

Looking curiously at the steam car that broke the courtyard of his home: "This is the one you are busy with these days?"

"Dad!" Shi Gan said hello first. Then a little excited: "This is called a steam car. It is propelled by a steam engine. It does not require human and animal power to walk and is not tired."

"How many pounds of iron do you get!" Shi Qing's first concern was how many pounds of iron this steel monster used, and how many weapons can this make? How many soldiers are armed?

Although the output of the Damoshan Iron Mine has been 100 times higher than before, as long as two years later, the price of the iron ore in Dayao can be reduced.

But Shi Qing's ideas over the decades have also made him popular.

"Almost 2000 pounds." Shi Gan whispered.

After hearing this, Shi Qing was silent, and said, "You guys are really big!"

"Master Shi, iron will no longer limit Dayao. And let alone 2,000 pounds of iron, these are worth 20,000 pounds of iron. Just like the original solar furnace, if you did not know how to use it, it would not be conspicuous at all. If it is used in the right place, it will not be worth 10 times or 100 times. "Ren Baqian laughed from behind.

"Chief of Renfu!" Shi Qing nodded. "The old man knows it, it's just an old idea, and he can't change it for a while."

"The last time the governor said, the old man still remembers, but can this thing really be the same as what the governor said?"

"This is just a prototype, and we need to continue to improve." Ren Baqian.

"The old man didn't understand these things, so he waited to see the performance of Ren Fu." Shi Qing smiled at Ren Baqian, and then returned to Shi Fu.

Then everyone took the steam car back for inspection, and found out that the collision had knocked the cylinder out of the hole, and Du Lao Liu suffered an old punch.

"Teacher, how can this be turned?" Immediately someone asked Ren Baqian.

"You don't need to turn, you just need to make this thing run on the rails."

Then Ren Baqian found out a few sticks to demonstrate to everyone, and Shi Gan suddenly understood. "If so, the impact of the road is also reduced, and the speed can be improved a lot."

Then he shouted, "How much steel do I need to do this?"

"You don't need to worry about this. You just need to know how much this thing can do. If you can set off in Lancheng and arrive in Yunguo within three days, then how much iron is worth it."

"I see!" Everyone heard Ren Baqian's words and immediately left with excitement.

When they made such a steam car, everyone's enthusiasm came up. Thinking of making a steam car of the kind described by the ghost.

After Ren Baqian saw them go, he smiled slightly.

Except for myself ~ www.readwn.com ~ I am afraid that no one knows how much steel the railway consumes.

If they knew it, they would be scared to death, and desperately would prevent their own idea of ​​building a railway.

One kilometer of rail requires 100 kilograms of steel, and one kilometer requires 100 tons of steel.

Now the output of the Damoshan Iron Mine is 2 million jin a year, but only 1,000 tons. It can also be used to make weapons. One year of steel can create 100,000 steel knives, which directly doubles the number of Dayao's army.

Two hundred thousand iron hoofs, even if it lays the big summer, it is not impossible.

But if you want to build a railway, don't think about it.

The distance from Lancheng to the border of Yunguo is at least 1,000 kilometers. According to the output of the Damoshan Iron Mine, it can only lay ten kilometers a year, and it will take more than 100 years to lay such a railway.

Fortunately, Ren Baqian did not set his goal on the output of the Damoshan Iron Mine.

There are iron ore in Yun country.
