You can go up to the court and go down to the kitchen.

Beat cockroaches, beat monks.

Not to mention the standards that Princess Changle has brought to the new generation of women, in this wave of "The Legend of the White Snake", the ink magazine has benefited the most.

"Print!"

"Print!"

With the continuous spread of "The Legend of the White Snake", the ink magazine, which had a huge circulation, once again fell into a situation where supply exceeded demand.

In this era of extreme lack of entertainment, the more fantasy and bizarre "The Legend of the White Snake" caused a sensation even better than "Liang Zhu".

All of a sudden, the ink periodicals worked overtime to print, and as soon as they were printed, they were pulled by carriages and transported to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, and the Confucian periodicals, which had a small market share, were even squeezed into shape, so that the sales of the new issue of Confucian periodicals were even more bleak, and even the number of ink periodicals printed at one time could not be compared.

By the Qujiang River, Li Yun took the new issue of the ink magazine and read it with relish, these wonderful stories could not be seen in the hermitage of the Xiangfu family.

"The Mo family is really lucky, and Princess Changle has a deep affection for him." Li Yun couldn't help but sigh.

The old servant on the side nodded approvingly: "It's a pity! If the Mo family is really enlightened and enters the Buddhist family, my Mo family will be peaceful. ”

Li Yun couldn't help but be silent, if he had agreed with this idea before, after all, the Xiangfu family thought that the Mo family had betrayed the concept of the Mo family, and the Mo family's most left-handed ink skills were sacrificed, but on the other hand, even the Buddhists came to compete for the supreme position of the Mo family, it was not the embodiment of the value of the Mo family, if the Mo family really entered the Buddhist family, would it really be good for the Mo family?

Besides, although the Mo family abandoned the political concept of Mo Sheng and devoted himself to the development of ink skills, it is much better than the Deng Ling clan that has been reduced to street performers, not to mention that these ink skills in Mojia Village once again made the Mo family famous and embarked on the road of rejuvenation.

"Maybe Mo Jiazi's path is correct?" This idea has been lingering in Li Yun's mind, compared to the reclusive Xiangfu family, the vigorous and ever-changing Mojia Village is probably the atmosphere of the Mo family in his mind.

But he quickly swept the thought out of his mind, and the most important thing he had to do now was to close the bridge in front of him.

As the long steel cable of the jack arm lifted a boulder and firmly buckled it in the last gap of the arch bridge, the arch bridge built by Li Yun was finally completed.

"Good!" The old servant looked at the bridge that had been closed, and couldn't help but say excitedly, "The young master will definitely become famous in one fell swoop when he builds this bridge." ”

In his opinion, the arch bridge built by Li Yun was not only super short, but also with the help of the Mo family's jack arm, the stone used in the arch bridge was even greater, and the bearing capacity and solidity were better than ordinary arch bridges, which was also the place where the old servant was most proud.

Li Yun's face couldn't help but show a hint of pride, when he designed this arch bridge, he knew that the Qujiang Bridge built by the Mo family was originally an arch bridge, and it was because of the sudden popularity of the Mo family's four-wheeled carriages, especially the surge in the load of four-wheeled trucks, and the Qujiang Bridge was overwhelmed and collapsed.

When he designed this arch bridge, he was already keenly aware of the problem of cargo capacity, and he had focused on increasing the bearing capacity of the arch bridge, which can be said to be better than all the arch bridges in the world in terms of bearing capacity.

However, his eyes followed the river and looked at the unique beam bridge that could be seen in the distance, and he couldn't help but flash a trace of worry in his heart, although he was confident in the arch bridge he designed, but faced with an unknown beam bridge. There is always a lingering cloud in his heart.

Qujiang Bridge.

Wu Meiniang, the senior sister of the Mo family, put away her usual domineering, shrunk her head like a little quail, and followed behind Merton.

"Congratulations to the master, now that the Qujiang Bridge has finally been completed, the people on both sides of the Qujiang River will definitely remember the master's great kindness when they travel in the future." Wu Meiniang looked at the Qujiang Bridge that was about to be completed, and patted her ass.

Since she obeyed the master's arrangement, she ruthlessly cheated the master, although the master protected her from punishment, whenever the master didn't know where to get some difficult questions, she took the opportunity to teach the apprentice, and made her suffer.

Merton snorted coldly and said, "The Mo family is acting to show what they have learned, not for the kindness of the people. ”

"The Mo family is noble, and the master is wise! In vain admired. Wu Meiniang hurriedly sent it away.

Mo Dun's face softened at this time, and he pointed to the Mo family disciples who laid cement for the beam bridge on the bridge deck and said: "Test you again for the teacher, do you know why these workers want to separate these cements into blocks." ”

Wu Meiniang couldn't help but look bitter, didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stared at the cement bridge deck in front of her, which had gradually solidified, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

The biggest advantage of cement is that it can be condensed to a piece infinitely as long as the raw materials are sufficient. However, the cement in front of me is different, and the opposite is true, separating the original flat cement road on the bridge into blocks of one square and one square circle with cardboard.

And according to the children of the Mo family, this is still the master's special order, many people also complained that this is labor-intensive, and it is not beautiful, how much the original smooth road surface is, not only that, but Mo Dun also ordered the extremely smooth road surface that was originally painted to be deliberately rough.

"It's to enhance friction and prevent skidding!" Wu Meiniang's heart moved, she had just come into contact with the Mohist doctrine for a short time, and she was most interested in all kinds of machinery, and it was the Mohist mechanics that she learned the most, so she naturally knew the reason, but she was puzzled by the measures to separate the cement road.

"The apprentice is stupid, and I ask the master for guidance." After Wu Meiniang for a long time, she had no choice but to bow her head and ask for advice.

Mo Dun couldn't help but show a trace of pride, and then disappeared and said: "If you want to really understand the truth, you need to learn the new knowledge of the Mo family, the way of distance, and teach you a new lesson as a teacher." ”

"The Way of Distance!" Wu Meiniang's face suddenly turned grim, although Merton did not have many opportunities to teach her in person, but every lesson benefited him a lot.

"Since ancient times, people all over the world have racked their brains in order to shorten the distance and avoid detours, and the bridge is one of the most dazzling masterpieces. The width of a river is not more than dozens of zhang, and the two sides of the river can shout in the air, but if you want to cross the river, you have to go around dozens of miles before there is a ferry, and even in the summer, the flood is overflowing, and the ferry is also extremely dangerous, and it is common for the traffic to be cut off for more than a month, so the bridge came into being. ”

Wu Meiniang nodded, she has been studying all kinds of bridges recently, stone arch bridges, beam bridges, single-plank bridges, iron chain bridges,.................., all kinds of bridges, so she naturally knows the importance of bridges.

"And in addition to bridges, there is another way to make distances not far away, and that is speed."

"Speed!" Wu Meiniang looked at Merton puzzled.

"In the past, it took more than five days for the carriage to reach Chang'an City from Luoyang, and now the carriage of the Mo family from Chang'an City to Luoyang takes only six hours, but the distance will never change, but the time is greatly reduced, so that the people do not feel far away, and the mystery is above the speed.

Psychologically, the distance between Chang'an and Luoyang is not as far as before, and the frequency of exchanges between the people of the two cities has doubled, which is proof. ”

Wu Meiniang nodded solemnly.

"If you want to study distance, time, distance and, of course, the speed of the horses and carts are all indispensable. This will be another branch of Mohist doctrine in addition to mechanics. Merton said with a solemn expression.

"The apprentice understands that he will not disappoint the master." Wu Meiniang solemnly assured, with a hint of disappointment in her tone.

Merton glanced at Wu Meiniang helplessly and said, "Do you think that the lesson taught today has nothing to do with the issue of being a teacher?" ”

Wu Meiniang suddenly glanced at Merton cautiously, and said in a low voice: "The futile child doesn't dare, it's just that the futile child is stupid, and he regrets it in his heart for solving his doubts in the future." ”

Morton snorted coldly, he didn't know Wu Meiniang's ghost thoughts, and he couldn't deter this little girl without showing a little real ability, and snorted coldly at the moment: "What the teacher said just now is just a macroscopic distance, but there are still subtle distance changes in the microscopic realm that are invisible to the naked eye, if it is used properly, it will be of great use, if it is not used properly, even this bridge built by ten thousand times may be destroyed unconsciously." ”

"Macro, micro!" Wu Meiniang was only then interested, and she looked like she was listening.

Morton said loudly: ""Historical Records of the River Canal": "Shu guards the ice, chisels away from the mill, dispels the harm of foaming water, and passes through the two rivers in Chengdu." "In the pre-Qin period, the ancestors of the Mo family assisted Li Bing in Shuzhong to build Dujiangyan, but in addition to the torrent of the river, Dujiangyan also has a problem that is to dig away from the mill, which is extremely hard, and the world's skilled craftsmen are helpless against it, and in the face of such a problem, the ancestors of the Mo family stepped forward and used a very simple method to help Li Bing dig the ditch, that is, the method of fire and water excitation.

"The method of fire boiling water." Wu Meiniang was suddenly shocked, she could be said to be most interested in the various secret techniques of the Mo family.

"Do you know how a boulder that is so hard can be easily chiseled apart when it is burned by fire and poured with water?" Merton asked.

Wu Meiniang thought for a while and said, "Could it be that the real secret is in fire and water." ”

"Yes, later the sages of the Mo family after many studies, found that if an item is very hot, then it will increase a little bit, if it is cold, he will shrink a little, the fire makes the boulder extremely hot, and the water makes the high temperature drop sharply, between this cold and hot, the shape of the boulder has undergone a slight change, and the teacher will call it thermal expansion and cold contraction."

Wu Meiniang suddenly realized that under the effect of this thermal expansion and cold contraction, the boulder had already been damaged inside, and it could naturally be easily chiseled.

"Could it be that Master Fei separated the cement bridge deck into pieces to prevent thermal expansion and cold contraction!" Wu Meiniang looked at the cement road under her feet, and looked at Merton with admiration.

Merton nodded and said: "Yes, the cement is extremely heat-absorbing, after being exposed to direct sunlight in summer, there will be high temperatures, although there is no fire and water stimulation method is violent, but the accumulation of time will one day destroy the bridge deck, reserve gaps in advance, to ensure that the bridge is worry-free." ”

"Master Wise!" Wu Meiniang looked at the process of building the bridge in Merton, and suddenly realized that the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction had already been unconsciously applied to the extreme.
