Chapter 181: Invention
"Congratulations, sir!" In the cabin, after Lu Lingqi checked the pulse, the medical craftsman who accompanied the ship turned around and bowed to Liu Yi and smiled.
"Where does the joy come from?" Liu Yi is a little blindsided, and his wife is unwell, what kind of joy is this?
Immediately, he reacted, and said with some uncertainty: "You mean ......?"
"Yes, ma'am, this is Ximai." The medical craftsman looked at Liu Yi with a smile and said, "Congratulations, sir." ”
At that moment, Liu Yi couldn't say what it felt, although he had made similar preparations, but when it really happened, it was quite complicated.
Joy?
It's a little, but it's more of a dazed and indescribable heaviness, I'm going to be a father, how do I teach this child? If it's a son, and he grows up and doesn't obey in the future, does he have to be beaten? If you are a daughter, if you are rebellious, you will be reluctant.
The messy thoughts came to mind in an instant, making Liu Yi a little dazed for a while, and even thought of being a whip for himself, with the attribute of repentance, and his son would be beaten if he was disobedient in the future, thinking about the naughty memories of his childhood, Liu Yi felt that this set of godson artifacts had to be invented.
I even have a lot of plots in my head, and I'm completely immersed in my own world.
Seeing that Liu Yi didn't move here, it was still Deng's mother who helped Liu Yi send the doctor out and gave the reward, and when she came back, seeing that Liu Yi was still stupid, she couldn't help but call softly: "Sir? ”
After screaming a few times in a row, Liu Yi reacted, looked at Deng Mu and said, "What?" That stinky boy is in trouble again!? ”
At this moment, Liu Yi had a bit of the momentum of a strict father, and Mother Deng was stunned: "Who did Mr. say?" ”
"Uh......"
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, Liu Yi felt a little lost in his heart, in his mind, he had already made up the child's age of six or seven years old, but he was called by Mother Deng only to find out that it was just his own imagination.
"Poof~" Lu Lingqi, who was lying on the bed, had a very bright head at the moment, maybe she had similar thoughts to Liu Yi, and couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this.
"Although this boat is comfortable, it often walks on water, and it is inevitable that it will be contaminated with moisture, so I will go and make some ginger soup for my wife." Mother Deng smiled and said to Liu Yi: "Mr. will take care of Mrs. here." ”
"There's Mrs. Lao." Liu Yi nodded, and after watching Mother Deng go out, she couldn't wait to come to Lu Lingqi's side and reach out to touch her stomach.
"It shouldn't be long." Lu Lingqi said with a smile.
It was still as flat as before, and now that she was pregnant, Liu Yi didn't dare to make any more mistakes, so she withdrew her hand and said, "Madame, if you want to eat, I'll go and ask someone to find it." ”
Both of them are rookies, neither Lu Lingqi nor Liu Yi have any experience in this area, and they are all crossing the river by feeling the stones when they talk about these things at this time.
"No, the concubine just feels tired and just wants to rest more." Lu Lingqi shook her head and said.
"Okay, then Mrs. Sister-in-law boiled ginger soup later, and after drinking it, she went to sleep." Liu Yi nodded, as if remembering that someone had said that women are the most emotionally unstable after pregnancy.
After a while, Mother Deng came in with ginger soup, and after feeding Lu Lingqi to drink, Liu Yi comforted Lu Lingqi to fall asleep, and then lightly exited the cabin.
Obviously feeling a sense of relief, Liu Yi sat on the bow of the boat again, looked at Cui Zhouping, who was tasting wine alone, and suddenly said, "I'm going to be a father." ”
"Congratulations." Cui Zhouping said calmly.
"Why is your expression so calm?"
"It's not me who is the father, why should I be excited?" Cui Zhouping glanced at Liu Yi speechlessly: "Besides, such a thing...... I've been through it for a long time. ”
"You already have a wife!?" Liu Yi was surprised when he heard this, he had always thought that Cui Zhouping was a single dog.
"In a few days, they will be sent from Mocheng to Changsha!" Cui Zhouping didn't have a good temperament, his wife had lived in Mocheng for a long time, looked at Liu Yi and said: "I am a famous man in Qinghe, I am a concubine, at such an age, how can I not have a marriage match?" ”
"Uh......" Liu Yi was shocked when he heard this, indeed, the normal age of marriage for men in these years is fourteen or fifteen years old, and it is too late to get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen.
In this way, Zhao Yun, who is almost forty years old and is still playing singles......
Liu Yi showed an inexplicable smile on his face, and he had a sense of superiority, Cui Zhouping on the side shuddered, leaned to the side and said: "Your cultivation is not enough, such things, at the age of twenty, can no longer make someone worry." ”
Liu Yi snorted and ignored him, although he didn't know when Cui Zhouping got married, but I'm afraid he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and when he was twenty years old, his son could make soy sauce, and if he had another one, the mood would naturally be different.
However, Liu Yi was indeed a little excited at the moment, and after the previous feeling of hesitation gradually disappeared, it was an impulse to let the whole world know, and the joy in his heart seemed to be about to erupt at any time.
Speaking of this, Cui Zhouping was a little disappointed, Liu Yi didn't bother to pay attention to him, took out a piece of wood casually, and quickly carved it.
The child is about to be born, Liu Yi is ready to carve out all the rui beasts he can think of, hang them by the window, and escort his child, and the wood carving that Lu Lingqi himself brought is made in a critical state, and its own attributes are for Liu Yi at this stage, which can only be available at the next level, and there is already a certain ability to turn evil into good fortune, but Liu Yi still feels that it is not enough, he has already made a decision in his heart, and after waiting for the shore, the rest of the matter in advance, Lu Lingqi's living environment to furniture, and the vehicles and ships used for travel must be rebuilt, For Liu Yi, the current sub-mother ship is already an outdated product, and it will be mainly used to consign goods in the future.
In addition, it is time for you to work hard to create the best environment for your future children to grow up.
Liu Yi, who had already begun to conceive of a grand blueprint for the future in his heart, no longer bothered with Cui Zhouping, and after asking the maid to fetch a few pieces of paper, he began to compose on the paper, and somehow, all of a sudden, he felt that the inspiration in his head kept jumping out.
Cui Zhouping saw that Liu Yi no longer spoke, and looked at Liu Yi's drawings with some curiosity, at the beginning he could still understand some carriages and horses, but later, Liu Yi's drawings appeared a lot of machinery, some were very simple, but they didn't know the function, and some had complex structures.
"What is this?" Seeing that Liu Yi didn't pay attention to his meaning at all, Cui Zhouping coughed lightly and brought a drawing, on which was a cone, and the other end was hooked with a thin line.
"A gauge used to measure whether a building is straight." Liu Yi glanced at it, and the pen did not stop, but his mouth explained: "Anything is dropped to the ground, pulled by a thin line, and after being suspended in the air, it is at a perpendicular angle to the ground. ”
Cui Zhouping didn't expect this inconspicuous-looking thing to have such a role, and in addition to praise, he was also aroused by curiosity, picked up something from the table that looked more like a catapult and said, "This is a catapult?" ”
"That's a crane used to lift heavy loads to a high place!" Liu Yi didn't even look at it, Cui Zhouping said, he knew: "One end of the traction of heavy objects, the middle of the rope with a gear hook, the end of the winch, can be used to use manpower or animal power to pull the heavy object to a high place, if the city is built with ordinary methods, both manpower consumption, efficiency is also low, if this thing is used, can greatly save manpower." ”
"Aren't they all the same?" Cui Zhouping was puzzled.
"Nature is different, I have been studying this aspect of the matter before, take this pulley as an example, if there is only one, then it is naturally how heavy the weight, how much force is used, but if it is replaced by two, it can pull twice the weight, don't you see that the top pulley is composed of four, with this pulley, it can greatly save power, in the past, four people can pull up the heavy object, but only one person can do it." Liu Yi didn't raise his head and said, he really did experiments on this, and his grades in mechanics and physics were not bad back then, but after all, so many years have passed, and he knows that there is this theory, but the relationship between various force arms and whatever, has already been returned to the teacher, and now he can only do experiments by himself on the premise of knowing a general concept.
"It's hard to believe." Cui Zhouping was a little incredulous when he heard this, how could the gravity be reduced by half after four wheels?
"This is Moxue, I will verify it with you personally when I have time." Liu Yi didn't explain much, he wanted to take the opportunity of his inspiration to make some of the things he thought of.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools?" Cui Zhouping was a little interested in these knowledge, looked at Liu Yi and said, "How do you feel that it is quite similar to mathematics?" ”
"It does require the assistance of mathematics, and many things must be calculated in advance, such as the upper limit of the force that this crane can carry, the length of this mast, and so on." Liu Yi nodded and said, "I'm going to set up a set of runes that are simply used for counting to record, if you write them, it's too time-consuming." ”
Well, I don't know if there are Arabic numerals, if they haven't appeared, they will be the culture of the Han people in the future~
"There's no need for that, is it?" Cui Zhouping said with a little amusement, it was too much to create some runes for craftsmen.
"When you write a number, you can write ten or more numbers if you replace it with runes, and the record is concise and easy to consult, and most importantly, even if the enemy takes it, he doesn't know what those runes are, do you say it's necessary?" Liu Yi asked rhetorically.
"What kind of rune is that?" When Cui Zhouping heard this, he felt that there was some truth, and looked at Liu Yi and said, "Do you want me to help?" ”
"I already have an idea in my mind." Liu Yi wrote 0123456789 ten numbers on the paper and handed them to Cui Zhou Pingdao.
"What is this?" Cui Zhouping looked at the ten numbers and looked at Liu Yi blankly.
"From the second one, it's one to nine." Liu Yi explained.
"What's up ahead...... Egg? Cui Zhouping pointed to 0 and asked.
"That's zero, that's nothing." Liu Yi said with a smile.
"Is it necessary?" Cui Zhouping asked.
"Yes, if you combine one with zero, it will be ten, and two will make eleven, and so on, you may understand?" Liu Yi looked at Cui Zhoupingdao.
Cui Zhouping was stunned, and looked at the ten for a long time: "In this way, just these ten runes can be deduced to infinity!?" ”
This is not a difficult thing to understand, Liu Yi explained like this, of course Cui Zhouping can understand, but looking at the inconspicuous ten runes, he was silent for a while, and only after a long time did he say to Liu Yiyi: "In the past, although I felt that Boyuan had some talents, but they were all small talents, it was difficult to get into the hall of elegance, and there was even a suspicion of grandstanding. ”
Liu Yi: "......"
If you didn't say that long list of prefixes, I really thought you were complimenting me.
