Chapter 10: Fang Zijing and the Generator
Fang Zijing took him to a room first and brought a set of clothes, which were also Western clothes, and the style was similar to what Fang Zijing was wearing. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info also apologized for not having better clothes, let him take care of it, Di Wenchang didn't say anything, just thanked, although the clothes are a bit big, but it doesn't look like the fabric is a bargain.
About ten minutes.
Chen's ancestral hall.
Fang Zijing took Di Wenchang, who had changed his clothes, to the small room on the left.
Ear room, Di Wenchang really knows this thing, and he has been to some historical sites to listen to the tour guide before. In ancient times, the small houses built on both sides of the main house of the Han nationality were smaller than the main house, like two ears, so they were called ear rooms.
The ear room, where people do not live and where sundries are placed, is the equipment room dedicated to Fang Zijing.
Looking at the small house in front of him, which was obviously half a story shorter, Di Wenchang sighed with emotion, although Fang Zijing is not surnamed Chen, his status is not as low as in the movie, otherwise this kind of place would not be able to put these things on him, especially these are still foreigners' things.
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that he is directly under the chief engineer of the railway supervision.
"Mr. Di, please come in. ”
Seeing Di Wenchang there in a daze, Fang Zijing hurriedly greeted.
"Oh, okay, come on. ”
Then I saw a huge human-powered foot-operated generator in the room, surrounded by several circles of wires.
"It seems that the second and third sons of the Chen family have left. ”
He knew that there was a very important plot in the movie, that is, the second son of the Chen family took advantage of Fang Zijing and Chen Yuniang to go out, secretly played with his generator, and then accidentally broke the wire, and hurriedly took it back, but it was not strong, so that there was an accident after the family meeting.
This is also the fuse of the whole story.
"Mr. Di, this is the generator I brought back from the East India Company. Fang Zijing looked excited, and stared at Di Wenchang with random eyes.
Di Wenchang pretended not to see it, just glanced at it casually, and said lightly, "This thing is generated by cutting magnetic lines." ”
In an instant, Fang Zijing was stunned, because of the chat before, Di Wenchang told him that he studied business, and he knew everything.
"This ...... Mr. Di is a rich learner!" Fang Zijing deserved to be a scheming person, and quickly adjusted and sighed.
Seeing his expression, Di Wenchang secretly laughed, Nima, the principle of generators, Lao Tzu learned physics in junior high school.
But he is still very modest, "I don't dare to be it, I don't dare to be." ”
Then he continued to pretend: "This thing must have been invented by a Frenchman, and it was still a hand-cranked generator at that time." ”
Di Wenchang had a nostalgic expression on his face, "Bissick's world's first hand-cranked generator, I have seen it in a rich man's house in the United States, and the wisdom of human beings is really infinite." ”
"Awesome! Mr. Di is amazing!"
At this time, Fang Zijing no longer had any doubts about Di Wenchang's identity, and he had positioned Di Wenchang's identity as a person with a high status in the West.
"Then the generator will not be ugly in front of Mr. Di, it just happens to be shown to the clan at night, if Mr. Di is interested, let's watch and guide together." ”
Fang Zijing's posture was very low.
"Out of the way. Di Wenchang smiled, "I haven't seen this thing for a long time." ”
He pointed to the generator, "You know that there are very few foreign countries that use manpower to generate electricity, and they use steam generators. ”
Then he walked around the generator with interest, and Yang Luchan also followed him to admire and admire, leaving Fang Zijing, who was a little confused, and he didn't know what to say.
"Big brother, what is this, I haven't seen it. ”
Di Wenchang didn't explain to him, "You don't understand it, you'll know about this thing in the evening." ”
He continued to wander, wondering if he could find the untied thread.
Sure enough, when he walked to the back, he saw a bare thread, he reached out and touched it, there was no temperature, and there was no obvious burning smell, it seemed that the Chen brothers had been gone for a while.
Di Wenchang deliberately let out a burst of exclamation, "Hey, Mr. Fang, please look here." ”
"What's wrong?Is there any problem?" Fang Zijing kept paying attention to Di Wenchang, and immediately walked over when he heard the voice.
He finally got this thing from the East India Company, so that he could make a splash at night and persuade him that a group of uncivilized villagers in Chenjiagou would be ruined if something went wrong.
Even though he had tested it many times, he was a little worried.
"Is this thread loose?" Di Wenchang pointed to a screw underneath.
Just now, he cleaned up the signs of the Chen family brothers moving without a trace, but it was blocked by the big wheel, and no one saw it.
"Huh, yesterday was fine. Fang Zijing was a little strange, but he didn't doubt him.
To be honest, he has only studied in the UK for a few years, and he is really not very proficient in machines, so he only knows that this thing is easy to go wrong.
"Small problem, just bring a screwdriver and tighten it. ”
"I see. Fang Zijing sighed.
I am glad in my heart, knowing that this small problem can be big or small, and if the performance is smashed at night, it will be a big problem. He promised Lord Daotai to persuade the villagers of Chenjiagou within ten days, and now it has been 5 days, and there is obviously not much time left.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be even more grateful to Di Wenchang.
Di Wenchang looked at him in his eyes, and secretly sighed that this Fang Zijing is not a very bad person, as for whether he can change his ending, he can only wait and see.
After repairing the wires, Fang Zijing was still not at ease, and checked inside and out, and there was no problem, so he stopped.
"Yu Niang, find someone to watch the equipment room, and don't let anyone enter here. He turned to Chen Yuniang and said.
"Okay, Zijing. Chen Yuniang said happily, as long as she could help Shang Zijing, she would be very happy.
After having dinner with Fang Zijing, he came to the equipment room early to prepare and moved the generator to the main room, which is the Chen ancestral hall.
Di Wenchang has nothing to do, and he chats with him, and constantly talks about the customs and customs of countries around the world from Di Wenchang's mouth, and Fang Zijing now has more respect for him.
Even Chen Yuniang on the side, looking at him, his eyes gradually changed a lot, from a little embarrassed at first, to surprise, shock, and finally numbness. She already believed that this young man of unknown origin was probably the one who came back from overseas and had a mysterious background.
These were all seen by Di Wenchang.
Fang Zijing's strategy has made great progress, and find another time for him to contact the East India Company to see if he can convince them to let the government reroute the railway.
Next.
Because it was a clan meeting within Chenjiagou, Di Wenchang knew that it was inconvenient to be present, so he found an excuse to avoid it.
Fang Zijing also understood what he was doing, thinking that he was thinking about himself and had a better impression of Di Wenchang. However, he didn't agree to Di Wenchang leaving, but just told him to rest.
There happens to be a small window in the ear room, and you can see the scene of the ancestral hall.
Di Wenchang is quite interested in pedal generators, which are antiques and should be the most primitive way to generate electricity.
He and Yang Luchan were drinking tea and eating snacks in the ear room, and soon several old men from Chenjiagou arrived first.
"What are you talking about today?"
"I don't know. ”
Several old men whispered discussions.
Background.
"Don't worry, it will go smoothly. Chen Yuniang comforted, "The railway has begun to be paved, so you won't leave, right?"
Fang Zijing's eyes flickered, looking at Chen Yuniang's delicate face, and suddenly his heart was a little confused.
He knew that even if the railway was paved, it would be impossible for him to stay in Chenjiagou, this place was too small, and his heart was too big to trap him at all. After a few years of staying abroad, his love for Chen Yuniang faded in his heart, and another Western girl named Claire walked into his heart.
Even if Chen Yuniang is willing to change for him, wear a Westerner's skirt, and introduce coffee to the villagers, the world of the two is too different, and even what he thinks, Chen Yuniang sometimes finds it difficult to understand.
He thought of Claire, beauty and wisdom combined, all this, but he didn't know how to answer now.
Pretending not to hear Chen Yuniang's question, he picked up the train's route plan and read it carefully.
"The train came from Zhengzhou, passed through Huaiqing Mansion, and stopped at the platform in Chenjiagou......"
