"Father, is this the car you are talking about? It's ugly! ”

Looking at the strange-shaped object not far away, Prince Jiang Yunfan turned his head to look at Jiang Chuan and asked.

"It's like, it's too ugly, it's uglier than a carriage." The eldest princess Jiang Yunxue also echoed on the side.

Although the concubines such as Queen Bai Jinxiu and Qi Xuan did not speak, judging from their expressions, everyone had the same idea.

It's no wonder that they are really ugly about this thing in front of them.

The carriage was removed from the carriage, and the three wheels were also made of wood, except that the wheels were covered with a layer of iron sheets.

The carriage also has no roof shell, and there is only one seat at the front, and instead of a steering wheel, it uses the same handlebars as a bicycle.

The most striking thing is the huge boiler behind the seat, the thick chimney next to it, and the steam engine next to it.

One person sits at the front and picks the direction, while another person in the back uses a shovel to add coal to the boiler to maintain the power.

The cars even traveled on a track about a hundred meters long.

And the speed of movement is very slow, and the large chimney is emitting white smoke as it goes.

To be precise, the object in front of you is more accurate than a car and a primitive train.

However, if you think about the industrial level of this era, you can't be too harsh, after all, it was also a group of people from the Royal Academy of Sciences who spent countless efforts to figure it out.

"It's a little ugly, but this thing can come in handy after it is developed in the future, and it will even profoundly change the face of the world." Jiang Chuan looked at the ugly primitive car lane in front of him.

"Change the world? Father, this thing walks slower than a human walk, let alone compared to a carriage, how can it change the world? Jiang Yunxue asked suspiciously.

"These are just immediate problems, and they will improve soon. In the future, maybe you don't want to ride a horse, and you want to go out in a car. Jiang Chuan said with a smile.

"Father, will there really be such a day? No matter how you look at this thing, you can't compare to a carriage? Jiang Yunxue looked back at the ugly primitive car and asked suspiciously.

"It's normal for new things to have a lot of problems. Yun Xue, I ask you, what do you think is the biggest difference between this car and a horse-drawn carriage? Jiang Chuan watched his daughter follow the temptation.

Jiang Yunxue Bingxue was smart, and said almost without thinking: "The carriage needs to be horse-pulled, but this one is not used." ”

"That's right, that's it. It's the change in the source of motivation that matters. Although it seems to be running very slowly, it is not as good as a horse-drawn carriage, but with the continuous improvement of technology, the car will become faster and faster in the future, whether in terms of speed, load capacity, or distance, it is far from being comparable to the horse-drawn carriage.

It is said that it takes a journey from the capital to the suburbs of Beijing by horse-drawn carriage, so it will take a car to reach it in half a day at most. Even in the future, the ship will be equipped with a steam engine on the car, so that the speed of the ship will be greatly increased, and the size of the ship will be greatly expanded, so that our navy can discover more islands, can patrol a wider sea area, and have enough strength to defend our Daqin sea area.

Think about what kind of grand occasion it must have been at that time, the roads everywhere in the world were full of cars running back and forth, rivers and lakes, rivers and seas, how majestic, how mighty! ”

Others didn't know the changes that the steam engine was about to bring, but Jiang Chuan knew it very well, so he was not disappointed at all by the simple and rough primitive car in front of him, but was full of interest.

After all, this is the first epoch-making industrial product produced under his theoretical guidance without borrowing the power of the system, and there is still a sense of accomplishment.

In his previous life, he also really wanted to have a car of his own, but unfortunately he didn't wait for the driver's license test, and he was tragically stoned to death before he could get the first car in his life.

So the primitive car in front of him also has a trace of his complex in it, but it is not enough for outsiders.

When everyone listened to what the emperor said, their eyes showed a sense of thought and yearning for a while.

The dean of the Academy of Sciences, who was standing on the side, also quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Just now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess disliked the words that made him worried, for fear that His Majesty the Emperor would be furious if he was not satisfied, but now it seems that His Majesty is still very lenient, and even seems to be in a good mood.

"Ma Aiqing, the first generation of products can make this appearance, which has met my expectations, and I am very pleased. I will reward you heavily. You go back and report the meritorious personnel in this research and development, and I want to reward you for your meritorious deeds. Jiang Chuan turned around and looked at the dean of the Academy of Sciences with a pleasant face.

"On behalf of all my colleagues in the Academy of Sciences, thank you Your Majesty Longen, and the ministers must do their best to research a better car for Your Majesty and my Great Qin, so as to repay Your Majesty Longen!"

Dean Ma hurriedly thanked him excitedly.

The group of researchers behind him also looked excited, bowed down and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" ”

"Excuse me. You must remember that you are the most precious talents of my Great Qin, and the key to my Great Qin's ability to be proud of the world and dominate the world. As long as you serve the country with your heart and devote yourself to research, I will never treat you badly. You will give them a peach, and I will ensure your prosperity and wealth for generations. I will never treat those who sincerely serve the country, this is my promise, and it is also the promise of all emperors after Great Qin. ”

Jiang Chuan's gaze swept over everyone in front of him and said loudly. The voice blessed with internal force clearly came into everyone's ears.

"Your Majesty Shengming, we will do our best, and we will finally be great Qin for generations, and we will never break our promise!" Everyone was excited, and they bowed down again.

After giving Dean Ma and the researchers guidance on the direction of future improvement, Jiang Chuan left the Academy of Sciences with his concubines and children and returned to the palace.

Not long after returning to the palace, Hu Zongxian came to ask for a meeting.

Although Jiang Chuan, the emperor, has the title of the supreme commander of the National Defense Forces, his daily affairs are presided over by Hu Zongxian, the governor of the General Staff.

Therefore, Hu Zongxian is the actual number one in the army.

"Hu Ruzhen is here? Didn't he go to the Liaodong War Zone to inspect? When did you come back? Jiang Chuan was changing his clothes and preparing to go to the shooting range in the Imperial Garden to shoot a target, and asked suspiciously.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Metropolitan Governor looks in a hurry, and it seems that he has just come back." Zhang Hai, the eunuch in charge of the Qianqing Palace, replied.

Jiang Chuan's heart moved, pondering that it was estimated that something big had happened to Fusang, and it was the kind of thing that Hu Zongxian couldn't decide. Otherwise, Hu Zongxian's usual calm and resolute will never come back in such a hurry.

"Please come in." Jiang Chuan commanded.

Not long after, Hu Zongxian, who was in a hurry and was in a hurry, walked in quickly.
