Chapter Seventy-Six: White Oysters and White Effort
Because Niu Xiaomo is a girl, she was tired enough to walk from Hangzhou City to Niujia Village, so she was left behind when she left the village, and arranged for Niu Tong and two other water thieves to accompany her, but why did the little golden retriever provoke Catherine?
Seeing that Brother Eleven came back, Niu Xiaomo immediately complained about it.
It turned out that Catherine was boiling medicine, and the little golden retriever smelled that it didn't seem to be bitter, so she wanted to taste it. Catherine claimed that the medicine was poisonous, but Niu Tong didn't believe it, and he had to taste it before he would stop.
In fact, although Niu Tong is a foodie, he is not unreasonable, if Catherine directly refuses, Niu Tong will give up. It's just that as soon as he heard that it was poisonous, Niu Tong felt that this little girl was deceiving herself, and Niu had a seizure, so she had to give it a try to see if she could poison herself.
Tian Shiyi felt very speechless, this is really a foodie, he even has to taste poisonous medicine, why didn't he gnaw stones?
The old cow had already taken three steps and made two steps, pinching Niu Tong's neck and turning around, and he didn't know where he planned to go to kill his relatives.
Tian Shiyi was very worried, wondering what medicine Catherine was taking and why it was poisonous? Unexpectedly, Catherine's face was flushed, and she hurriedly hid the medicine bowl behind her.
Niu Tong naturally had his father to clean up, but Tian Shiyi was concerned about poisonous medicine at this time. As a result, Niu Xiaomo's face was also flushed, and she ran away. As soon as Catherine saw Xiaomo fleeing, she quickly fled and hid in the house
Tian Shiyi's mind was full of confusion, and he said in his heart, what's the matter? Fortunately, Li Fenli's father secretly told Brother Eleven that the medicine his daughter was taking was specifically for the treatment of girls.
Well, I can't ask. To say that the little golden retriever is really wonderful, he wants to taste everything, and he doesn't know how much meat he needs to eat to cure this problem.
Because the ascetic had to prepare for the funeral, the whole village went to the rubble chapel, but Knight Li invited Tian Shiyi into his house, and left his daughter to accompany him, and said that Catherine should find out the precious and good tea that he had treasured for fifteen years, and entertain the distinguished guests.
Tian Shiyi almost fainted, a good tea that has been treasured for fifteen years, even if it is Pu'er tea, it has expired for several years, okay, wouldn't it be more poisonous than poison? It's a shame that the little golden retriever let his father take it away, otherwise he would definitely be clamoring to taste it.
Knight Lee's home is also very simple, with stone walls on one side and simple construction on the other three sides. The difference is that he has a simple desk made of wooden boards in his home, on which there is a quill pen, an inkwell and a stack of yellow old paper, which makes Tian Shiyi overjoyed.
Calligraphy is so difficult to practice, with a quill you can save a lot of trouble.
Tian Shiyi had a lot of things he wanted to write down, such as training guides, regulations for restaurant employees, how to make some products, preliminary exploration and research directions, and so on.
stopped Catherine from boiling water and tea, and Tian Shiyi unexpectedly found two books.
Both books are old, the pages are parchment, and the handwriting and illustrations are not printed, but handwritten, hand-drawn manuscripts bound together with words that are completely unknown to them.
Tian Shiyi has a strong urge to bring books back to the modern era. I believe that it will be sold for a lot of money in the future, but unfortunately I can't go back.
There were many illustrations in the book, and Tian Shiyi was pleasantly surprised to find that it was actually a book about shipbuilding.
At this time, the shipbuilding technology of the West was not more developed than that of the Song Dynasty, not to mention that this was still an antique book from an unknown number of years ago. However, the two civilizations had different understandings of shipbuilding, with the Song dynasty focusing on chariots and boats, and even the Zheng He's treasure ships of the latter and the next dynasty, which were equipped with a 13-meter-long giant oar in addition to sails. The West, on the other hand, has always focused on sailing ships and paddle boats, and if the two civilizations can be combined, there is no telling what kind of sea monsters will be created.
When Li Finley's father returned, Tian Shiyi was still looking through the two books.
Knight Lee looked at his daughter, and Catherine spread her hands innocently, which meant that people had been reading books and not looking at me at all.
Catherine was also very helpless in her heart, he tried to get the attention of Brother Eleven many times, but the thin young man was just puzzled. I don't know why those old parchments are more attractive than girls.
Sighing silently, Li Finley's father hurriedly learned the habits of the Song people and confessed, and then continued to chat with Tian Shiyi.
Unexpectedly, Knight Li's dream was to become a shipwright and build the biggest and best ship in the world. It's just that the reality is too far away from the ideal, and the massive amount of copper money needed to build a giant ship on the sea, not to mention him Village Chief Li, even if Tian Shiyi's assets at this time are increased by a hundred times, it is not enough.
Before Tian Shiyi fell ill, he had joined a club with an interesting name, called the "Anti-Japanese Club". Most of the people in the club are uncle-level characters, and Tian Shiyi has seen a lot of interesting things there and learned a lot of knowledge.
As for shipbuilding, Tian Shiyi is actually not interested. But the sad thing is that the chairman of the anti-Japanese club not only likes partial vans but also ancient sailing boats, but he is still a chatter, and he always catches the individual and starts the topic of light sailing.
As a junior in the club, Tian Shiyi didn't know how many times he fell asleep listening to the knowledge of sailing, but he didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.
"The White Oyster Effect?" Knight Li asked curiously.
Li Finley's father had read those two books hundreds of times, and he thought that few people in the whole world could surpass him in his knowledge of sailing, but he didn't expect that a random Song Dynasty boy would give him away.
"It's not white oysters, it's not white effort, it's the Bernoulli effect, also known as the boundary layer surface effect." Tian Shiyi said, then picked up a quill and wrote the words "Bernoulli effect" on the old paper.
Finley's father was once again stunned. The Song people were accustomed to using brushes, and there were very few who could write skillfully with a quill, at least Knight Li had never seen them. And those words seem to be missing a lot of strokes, so few that Knight Li, who is familiar with the Song Dynasty characters, is a little unrecognizable.
Tian Shiyi didn't give Li Finley's father a chance to ask questions, and continued: "You should know that sailboats can't get the fastest speed when they are completely downwind, why is that? This is the Bernoulli effect. For example, when you hold the cup up to your mouth when you drink water, your mouth will habitually 'suck' the water in the cup. At this time, the chest expands, the pressure of the gas in the lungs and mouth decreases, and the air near the mouth runs towards the mouth. And the closer the air is to the mouth, the faster it runs, and the less pressure it has on the surface of the water. Therefore, for the water surface in the cup, the pressure of the air in the near mouth part is small, and the farther part is larger, and under the action of unequal pressure, the water surface of the near mouth part is slightly higher, and it flows into the mouth beyond the edge of the cup......"
……
Tian Shiyi talked endlessly, Catherine listened stupidly, and Niu Xiaomo, who ran back at some point, was also like listening to a book from heaven, listening to Brother Eleven say some words that he could clearly understand, but he couldn't understand at all.
Li Finley's father was like a stone lion at the gate of the Suzhou and Hangzhou Yingfeng Bureau, staring at the confused eyes, trying to "suck" the water into his stomach with various methods one after another.
When he drank the Nth cup of water, he finally burped and said, "God, it is so enviable, God has given you infinite wisdom, and I think you will be able to build the most powerful sailing ship in the world." ”
