Chapter 598: Electricity! (Above)

The forty-second year of the Emperor Ming Dynasty and the history of the Ming Dynasty must be a crucial year.

At the beginning of May, Emperor Zhu Yunwen of the Ming Dynasty officially signed an edict abolishing the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the provincial capitals were unified under the direct management of the central government.

In the same month, Zhu Yunwen signed an edict again: "The king, duke, marquis, and uncle of the Ming Dynasty are still reserved, but they will not be inherited in the end, and those who are not surnamed Zhu can also be added to the king." The prince eats 10 million years, 5 million dukes, 3 million, and 100 years. ”

This edict officially deprived the entire Ming Dynasty of the right to inherit the princes of all the clans, but it also made hundreds of millions of people across the country crazy.

A different surname can also be added to the king!

The first person to enjoy this honor was Ma Dajun, who had just taken up the post of chief of the General Staff.

'King of Pingxi'!

Zhu Di, who was far away in Nanjing, knew that Ma Dajun was just a boxer that Zhu Yunwen pushed out to fight with his clansmen.

The king of the movement is the relatives of the clan, and the promotion of Ma Dajun to the king is to use Ma Dajun as a gunman.

If the clan relatives make trouble, the king of Pingxi will not be the first to agree.

Man does not perish for his own sake.

Zhu Yunwen's hand is similar to when he first ascended the throne, he promoted Song Sheng to the command position of Mobei Capital.

What's more valuable is the meaning of the horse bones of the Qianjin City, Ma Dajun was born in a reckless mountain household, and he can also be promoted to the king, which is a great encouragement for those living beings in the world.

Even if one generation fails to carry it out, so what?

And since the Ma army, Zhu Yunwen threw out two dukes one after another.

First, Xu Buji, who was the crown prince and prince, was named the Duke of Fuguo, and then Mo Cheng, who was the chief academician of the Academy of Sciences, was named the Duke of Transport.

Two dukes, one writer and one craftsman.

The title of the Ming Dynasty began to benchmark against the country's contributions, and there was no restriction on the way of origin.

"As long as you contribute to the country, the prince of the prince will be waiting for the vacant position."

The so-called princely general Xiangning has a kind of Zhu Yunwen who has opened this green cloud road for the people of the world, and he can climb to every step by chance, without hereditary iron hats and class barriers that block the way.

"Study hard to improve yourself, participate in the construction and serve the country, you just have to work hard, and the rest has its own providence!"

In the field of courageous and progressive thinking, Zhu Yunwen injected a shot of strength into the people of the world, making the fighting spirit of the whole country more high.

In the context of this great era, the cabinet also began to lay out the Fourth Five-Year Plan.

The 42nd year of the Emperor Ming Dynasty is the final year of the 35th Five-Year Plan, and the 43-year plan is expected to be laid out in advance.

Before the start of the year-end kick-off meeting, the Academy of Sciences finally built the first generation of steam trucks.

On this day, Zhu Yunwen and all five members of the cabinet went to the Academy of Sciences to watch the ceremony.

"Fifty-four miles in an hour, you can carry 8,000 catties of goods or 50 people."

This is the effect of the first generation of steam cars in the Ming Dynasty.

The speed is not as fast as the horsepower, but Zhu Yunwen is also very happy.

"I've been longing for the night for decades, and now I've finally been satisfied."

Everything is difficult at the beginning, if you can have this first-generation steam car, you are not afraid of not having the second and third generations, and if you have a steam engine, you are not afraid of not having an internal combustion engine.

It took only forty or fifty years for Europe to go from the first generation of steam engines to internal combustion engines, and a few decades is not a long time for a country.

Zhu Yunwen may not see it, but this country will definitely witness it.

"I originally planned to lay the first railway to lay the Beijing-Guangzhou line, but the current loading capacity is not strong, for the sake of practicality, it is better to open between Beijing and Pingjin first, so that Pingjin Port can directly send shipping goods to Beijing, saving manpower and consumption on the way."

"The ministers are ashamed of their divine grace." Mo Cheng opened his mouth to confess his sin, and he was indeed sincere.

The emperor added him the nobility of the duke, and with the help of the country, it took more than 20 years to create such an iron guy who couldn't even compare to the carriage, which made it difficult for Mo Cheng to feel at ease.

"You've done a great job."

Zhu Yunwen patted Mo Cheng's shoulder, widening the latter's guilt.

"The rails required for this steam car, the Academy of Sciences has a detailed process flow, delivered to the Ministry of Industry, the Beijing-Tianjin line must be built next year, and it must be completed within a year, without delay."

"No problem."

Kuang Yihe, one of the cabinet ministers in charge of the Ministry of Industry, immediately intersected: "Beijing and Tianjin are only a hundred miles apart, please rest assured, don't say a year, the minister dares to make a statement, and it will be opened to traffic within six months." ”

He was bold, and Zhu Yunwen saved half of the time he planned to open his mouth.

It seems that he was stimulated by Mo Chengfeng, and he wanted to pursue meritorious performance and work hard.

Even half a year, Kuang Yihe felt that it was a little slow, if he wasn't afraid that it would be risky to say shorter, he would have wanted to say four months.

It's nothing more than a dead base of Indian and Japanese laborers.

One mile of railway, one mile of wreckage, Beijing and Tianjin are only 100 miles, how much can it take to fill in the life?

Relying on the supply of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes, with India's population base of tens of millions, not a single stubble can be used up.

"It's good to have confidence, but it is also necessary to ensure quality and quantity, and you can't rush the work, which leads to problems not long after the opening of traffic."

Regarding Kuang Yihe's anxious performance, Zhu Yunwen still admonished, and the former naturally patted his chest and packed the ticket.

The group bypassed the steam locomotive and continued to wander around the Academy of Sciences, with Mo Cheng acting as a guide.

"The new pumping and drainage devices have basically passed the experimental stage and can be put into use at any time, when the palace can use the tap water that His Majesty said, and the corresponding pumping pits and sewage systems will be assembled, so there will be no need for manpower to do these dirty work.

At present, the new buildings that have not yet started construction in Beijing can be pre-buried with pipelines, and after the completion of the construction, they will be new buildings with automatic water supply devices and convenient for people's livelihood. ”

Several people laughed softly: "In this way, it should be another headache for His Royal Highness the Great Prince." ”

Everyone knows that Zhu Wenkui is busy lowering housing prices, and as soon as Mo Cheng's object is put into use, the housing prices of new real estate will definitely rise again, which is definitely good for the housing market.

Zhu Yunwen didn't answer, his eyes were attracted by a platform in the distance.

There is a metal ring and a copper ring on the countertop, which is covered with wool.

"What is this?"

Zhu Yunwen couldn't understand it, and posted softly, and Mo Cheng beside him glanced at it and hurriedly answered: "Oh, a young man from our Academy of Sciences made it up, saying that this can make a spark, and I will replace him." ”

"A few pieces of iron and a piece of wool can make a fire, isn't that a joke?"

Several ministers chuckled in disbelief, watching Mo Cheng go looking for someone, but they didn't know that Zhu Yunwen's eyelids were already beating wildly at this moment.

If he guessed correctly, this is, an electric test!

Electricity testing is not a blank field for China, at least 2,000 years old, and Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Writings" is a detailed account of the Song Dynasty ancients' peep into the mysterious field of electricity.

Including triboelectric activation, static electricity, and wool electrolysis have been tried.

But there is just no systematic induction, and there is no deeper experiment.

It may be that the ancients thought electricity was useless.

After all, it is easy to get angry and hurt people when it comes out, and it can't be used in life.

Here Zhu Yunwen was still immersed in excitement, and not far away, Mo Cheng had already led a young man over.

"Your Majesty, this is the person in charge of the spark experiment, Jiang Tianliang."

As soon as I heard this name, eighty percent of it was born at dawn.

And Jiang Tianliang, who was standing behind Mo Cheng, didn't have time to introduce his birth, and complained first at this moment: "Academician Mo, this is not a spark experiment, but an electric experiment, the electricity of thunder." ”

After complaining, he greeted Zhu Yunwen and saluted: "Jiang Tianliang, a second-level academician of the Academy of Sciences, see my emperor's holy bow." ”

Several cabinet ministers standing behind Zhu Yunwen were suddenly taken aback, but they didn't expect that the young man in front of them turned out to be a second-level academician.

The academician level of the Daming Academy of Sciences is particularly dead, and the quality is still scary.

The chief academician leads the first grade, the first-level academician is the second grade, and the second-level academician is the third grade.

Although he has no administrative power, this young man's salary can be at the same level as that of a provincial government!

"Tell me about it."

Zhu Yunwen didn't look at Jiang Tianliang, at this moment, his attention was all attracted by those few small pieces of iron.
