Chapter 372
"Fusu, what are you thinking, so obsessed?"
Looking at the absent-minded Fusu, Ying Zheng suddenly asked.
Erchen was wondering when the Great Qin Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering would be able to develop a working steam engine. "
Fusu replied with a smile.
"Fighting for air?"
"Nice name, what does it look like?"
"Could it be that Fusu said last time, a more advanced flying machine than the Cloud Shuttle?"
A hint of curiosity flashed across Ying Zheng's face.
Although it has been a few months since the last flight, Ying Zheng has always remembered it vividly.
"It's not a fight for breath, it's a steam that rises when boiling water burns. "
"When the water boils, there is a large amount of white water vapor that rises enough to open the lid and make a whining sound in the pores. "
"The steam engine, on the other hand, uses the power of this water vapor to propel large machinery like water power, and it does not need to be limited by geographical conditions like water power. "10
"If we can continue to develop and improve, it is not a problem to promote more advanced aircraft into the sky. "
Fusu explained with a smile.
"Does such a magical machine really exist?"
Ying Zheng hesitated.
Today's first emperor has seen all kinds of power machinery brought by Fusu, typical, such as the semi-automatic assembly line of wool processing.
The continuous flow of products processed from the assembly line is a symbol of Daqin's leading productivity and the source of Daqin's commercial development.
However, the energy required for such a machine is also very large.
If it weren't for the fact that Daqin had built many new water conservancy projects, it would really not be able to meet the demand for power.
Unfortunately, such hydrological conditions are not available everywhere after all, and they are also limited by the dry season, so the expansion of the production line has been greatly affected.
And if the steam engine that Fusu said really has such energy, it is really enough to make Daqin really take off.
Anytime, anywhere, at any time, a steady stream of production can be carried out, and the strength of Daqin is unimaginable even for Ying Zheng.
If it weren't for the fact that Fusu had already created many miracles, in other words, I was afraid that it would be directly blown out by Yingzheng as a boast.
"At present, a relatively primitive version of the steam engine has been manufactured in the engineering academy, and if the test is successful, the sons can take their father and the courtiers to see it together. "
Fusu smiled slightly.
Ying Zheng's doubts made Fusu realize that it was necessary to strengthen the popularization of science and technology again throughout Daqin.
Otherwise, when the steam engine is really invented, it will be regarded as a monster by the ignorant people, or a fairy thing, which is definitely not a good thing for the promotion of the steam engine.
The last hot air balloon test flight, even after a period of publicity, some people could not bear it and were directly frightened and fainted.
This was when Fusu painted the hot air balloon into a colorful auspicious cloud.
Replaced with a steam engine, it was not good to be a demon and a monster.
This fully reminded Fusu that if he wanted to start the industrial revolution in Daqin more than a thousand years ahead of schedule, it was not only necessary to improve productivity, but more importantly, to improve the cultural level of the people.
Otherwise, even if the steam engine is successfully developed, it will take a long time to be accepted by the people, and there are not enough quality workers to produce, use and maintain, and it will not play the greatest role.
These are all hands-on things that can be started right now.
With the new issue of "Daqin Daily" about the steam engine's popular science publicity, the counties and counties of Daqin are boiling again. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"Steam engine, what is this?"
"Could it be a new breed of chicken?"
"No, it is a new type of machinery that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked the Daqin Engineering Institute to be researching, which is more magical than a bicycle, and it can make the car run by itself without pedaling. "
"Not only can it run, but its strength is much greater than that of cattle and horses, and it can easily pull thousands of catties of goods, and the speed is very fast!"
"Can this really be done?"
"Why not, Your Highness said, this steam engine, the use of the principle of air flow when the water boils, the scene of boiling water at home, you have always seen it, that force can lift the lid of the pot. "
"If you can magnify it countless times, how can it be impossible to run with the car!"
"With the strength to boil water, even if it can pull the car, I don't know how big it will be, but I'm afraid it won't be able to go on the road at all, right?"
"As long as it is what His Highness says, I fully believe it, when did His Highness deceive us?"
"You can fly in the sky, why can't you build a car that runs by yourself?"
"But Your Highness didn't say it, the research and development of this steam engine is very difficult, although it is possible to achieve it, but I'm afraid we can't see it!"
Hundreds of people were arguing around bulletin boards and newspapers, and many of them had a skeptical look on their faces.
It's really the effect of the steam engine described in this newspaper, it's amazing.
In the past, water could drive machinery, and the people could accept it, because water and fire were originally the power of heaven and earth, and the energy of flash floods was a concept in the minds of the people.
However, it is really unimaginable that the steam of boiling water can have such a large amount of energy, comparable to the power of heaven and earth.
That is, this article was written by Fusu, otherwise it would have been regarded as whimsical by the people a long time ago.
Many rotten Confucians, who had been silent for a long time and had not been able to raise their heads in the 507s, thought that they had found an opportunity to fight back, and rushed to jump out.
"What kind of steam engine, I think it's fooling!"
"Yes, yes, His Highness used to take out the real thing first, but if he can't take it out this time, he definitely can't do it, at least not now!"
"I will also dream that in the future, Daqin will not only be able to go to the sky to find the Heavenly Palace, but also enter the sea and dive into the Dragon Palace!"
"Let's disperse!"
"It's a pity, Your Highness was originally a member of my Confucian family, and he has made a lot of achievements in culture and martial arts, but now he is going to study science and engineering, which is simply a waste of his roots!"
"Although the cloud shuttle is magical, it has also appeared in mythological stories, and this steam engine does not even have the fairy world, even if His Royal Highness is an immortal god, it is impossible to do it. "
The rotten Confucians are foaming at the mouth one by one, and they are not happy to spray.
The people were suddenly unhappy, Fusu was the patron saint of Great Qin, the idol of countless people, how could a group of rotten Confucians be allowed to question it.
However, this time, the concept of the steam engine is indeed a little ahead of its time, and without seeing the real thing, the remarks of the rotten Confucians have still achieved a certain market.
Especially after the last pillar of Confucianism, the grandson of Confucius, and Kong Yi, also stood up, he was supported by many people from hundreds of schools who couldn't get along.
All of a sudden, it actually caused a lot of movement in Daqin.
