The first batch of B steam engines were to be combined with machine tools, but they could also be combined with water pumps as water lifters.

In fact, in the research and manufacturing process of the B-type steam engine, the first goal is to manufacture steam-powered machine tools, as long as the B-type steam engine is researched and manufactured, the next can continue to improve, research and manufacture of steam engines suitable for other machines.

The emergence of the practical B-type steam engine is a great news for the People's Army, which is about to enter the industrial age, which means that with the same number of people, the People's Army can make more firearms, make more goods, and the cost of goods will fall, the price of goods will also fall, and the people can afford to buy goods that they were reluctant to buy before.

Fang Nan couldn't wait to tell everyone who knew about the Type B steam engine, so that everyone could be happy and happy together.

There are not many people in the KPA-ruled areas who know about the steam engine, and even fewer people know about the steam engine, mainly the high-ranking people of the KPA, the researchers of the Steam Engine Research Institute, the workers of the Foshan Machinery Factory, the teachers and students of Guangzhou University, and a small number of people in the mines in various places.

The Type A steam engine before the Type B steam engine has been mass-produced, and the water pump is combined to form a water lifter to pump water in the mine, which does bring some convenience to the mining, and there is also a water lifter in Guangzhou University, so that teachers and students can use tap water for the first time.

In the eyes of people who know the type A steam engine, the type A steam engine is already a very magical machine, which does not require manpower, and can "transport" water, which is very convenient, what is the type B steam engine that is better than the type A steam engine.

In contrast, the high-level of the People's Army, the researchers of the Steam Engine Research Institute, and the teachers and students of Guangzhou University who understand the steam engine understand very well the significance of the Type B steam engine, and Fang Nan once said in front of them all kinds of miracles of the Type B steam engine, for the People's Army, the Type B steam engine is an artifact, the important weapon of the country, which can greatly increase the strength of the People's Army.

The high-level leaders of the People's Army who got the news were overjoyed, and the teachers and students of Guangzhou University cheered even more, and the smile on Fang Nan's face never stopped.

It is better to be an ordinary person in modern times than a rich man in ancient times, who could have three wives and four concubines, a big house, and a large group of servants, but modern ordinary people can enjoy a better life and do not need to worry about most diseases.

Fang Nan is very dissatisfied with the current life, and even more dissatisfied with the life in the mountains when he was young, in order to live a better life, Fang Nan led a group of mountain people to raise the anti-flag, and now the People's Army overthrows the Ming Court is just around the corner, Fang Nan is now looking forward to the progress of science and technology to enjoy a better life.

Of course, in order to make himself and his family live a better life, Fang Nan will not forget the sentence "let the people all over the world live a good life", this is Fang Nan's oath, and Fang Nan will definitely realize it.

Back at the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Fang Nan was still smiling, everyone could see that the Metropolitan Governor was very happy, Zhu Yaojiang, who accidentally bumped into Fang Nan again in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, lowered his head and waited for Fang Nan to walk by, Zhu Yaojiang also noticed the smile on Fang Nan's face, this was the first time Zhu Yaojiang saw Fang Nan's smile, and other times when he saw it, the expression on Fang Nan's face was either indifferent or serious.

"I wonder what makes him happy like this?" Zhu Yaojiang wondered in his heart.

The next day, Zhu Yaojiang and Xiao Qiao sat and chatted, and Zhu Yaojiang asked Xiao Qiao about the fact that the Metropolitan Governor seemed very happy yesterday.

"Dadu Governor" is Zhu Yaojiang's name for Fang Nan, just a nominal wife, and Zhu Yaojiang's senses for Fang Nan are very bad, how can the titles of "husband, Xianggong" be impossible to shout.

Xiao Qiao replied: "The husband was indeed very happy yesterday, and a thing that the husband has been paying attention to for a long time has finally been successfully produced. ”

"What's that?"

Zhu Yaojiang's eyes were full of curiosity, could it be a more powerful firearm? This is not good news for Daming.

"It's a machine, called a steam engine, this steam engine is very powerful, you don't need to push it or pull a horse, you can move it yourself."

"A machine that can move on its own?" Zhu Yaojiang was a little incomprehensible.

Seeing Zhu Yaojiang's doubts, Xiao Qiao was very interested in introducing the steam engine to Zhu Yaojiang, although there were not many people in the People's Army's ruling area who knew about the steam engine, but Fang Nan did not ask everyone to hide the matter of the steam engine, but the use of the Type A steam engine was too little before, and there were few people in contact, so no one would talk about it.

Now it doesn't matter if the steam engine spreads, the steam engine is very useful, but it does not mean that it can be manufactured, and if there were newspapers in the area ruled by the People's Army, the news of the birth of the B type steam engine would have already appeared in the newspapers.

From using a steam engine pump to lift water to loading a steam engine on a big ship and a car, in Xiao Qiao's words, the steam engine seems to be omnipotent, capable of replacing the work of cows, horses and even people.

Zhu Yaojiang listened to Xiao Qiao's words but didn't understand a little, and only felt that the steam engine was very powerful.

It is normal for Zhu Yaojiang not to understand Xiao Qiao's words, Zhu Yaojiang is probably an intellectual in the old era, because of his resistance to the People's Army, Zhu Yaojiang did not even learn simplified Chinese, and he didn't even read "Common Sense", which most people find interesting.

Graduates of the three-year education in the People's Army-ruled areas were exposed to a little bit of physics, but if they wanted to learn more, they had to enter Guangzhou University.

It is expected that after other ordinary people hear about the steam engine, they will behave similarly to Zhu Yaojiang, feeling that the steam engine is very powerful, but they don't know where the specific power is, with their knowledge reserves, they can't understand such a thing as a steam engine.

After chatting with Xiao Qiao, Zhu Yaojiang returned to his residence, thinking back to Xiao Qiao's words, Zhu Yaojiang not only felt that the steam engine was very powerful and magical, but also felt that the strength of the People's Army was about to increase.

Zhu Yaojiang has lived in the Dadu Governor's Mansion for more than half a year, and in more than half a year, Zhu Yaojiang has become more and more aware of the affairs of the People's Army-ruled area, although Zhu Yaojiang does not know the living conditions of the ordinary people in the Daming ruling area, but listening to the description of the past life of the residents of Guangzhou City, Zhu Yaojiang can feel that the life of the common people in the Daming ruling area will not be too good, and the people at the bottom work hard just to have enough to eat.

And now the common people in the areas ruled by the People's Army have a smiling face most of the time, and this smile is not a trace of reluctance, they feel that their life is very good now, and this is the good day they have been looking forward to for a long time.

They used to be the people of the Ming Dynasty, but they now support the People's Army, hoping that the People's Army can defeat the Ming Dynasty.

Water can carry boats and capsize boats, even the common people do not support Daming, Zhu Yaojiang no longer knows how Daming should resist the People's Army, and she does not want to scold these ordinary people for "eating inside and out", she can see that Daming is sorry for these people.
