After the prime minister returned to the government, he immediately began to organize relevant personnel to divide the agricultural area, and let people from all over the country start to plant related agriculture, the original Tu'an area mainly planted forest fruits and vegetables, the original Qichu two places planted wheat, the original Chen State did not plant anything for the time being due to seeds, a large amount of land was mainly used for military training, and the Nanzhao area was temporarily allowed to raise fish because of many lakes, at least all the land in the country was utilized.

At the same time, the Big Three and Commander Wei and others also began to work on the construction of local councils, because the Tu'an area is close to the sea and its geographical location is particularly important, so Chen Chen asked Commander Wei to send people to control this area, and the other three local Giants divided it themselves.

At the same time, with the popularization and construction of local councils, the people also began to elect their own representatives, but many things happened in the election, and the same scene was staged in the village.

"Ergou and his father, remember to vote for my baby and his father when the time comes, if you don't vote, the relationship between our two families will be broken."

Ergou's father seems to be a cultured person, listening to his neighbor's words, he couldn't help but sneer: "You are a grass farmer with no skills, how can you participate in caring about the world's major affairs, it is better to give me the vote, once I am elected, I will take good care of your family." ”

"Look at everyone is canvassing, why don't you go, or your position will not be guaranteed." A woman said to her man as she came home.

"Afraid of what? Lady, don't worry, you know everything for your husband, this is just a trick, the real power is still in the hands of the official. Besides, even if I am not elected, my position is still here, your position is there, and they still have to respect us. Even if they are elected, they will have to listen to me, or they will stop their subsistence allowance. ”

The people are worried about the council and the planting of the land, and Chen Chen is also worried about the new technology at the moment.

Although it is said that the steam engine can be realized in this era, the technology of the steam engine is not so easy to operate, so he has been worrying about this matter recently.

In order to develop the steam engine, he gathered all the craftsmen in Shengzhou.

"Craftsmen, I have gathered you here today to develop a new technological achievement, and the realization of this achievement requires everyone's strength." Chen Chen beckoned everyone to sit down.

Where did everyone dare to sit, after all, it was in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, please speak, we will definitely make a product that satisfies Your Majesty in accordance with Your Majesty's requirements." ”

Chen Chen smiled and nodded: "I see everyone's efforts, as long as this product is successful." Then each will be rewarded with 5,000 yuan. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be eager to try, not to mention that they like to do this kind of work the most, even with this 5ooo yuan reward, it is also attractive enough.

Chen Chen is very satisfied with everyone's performance, and there will be brave men under the heavy reward, it seems that this is true.

"What about the production of steel? What about the quality? Because this time the product to be manufactured must use a lot of steel, and the quality of the steel must be of the highest quality, and there must be no mistakes. ”

The person in charge of the relevant work immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty rest assured, since the last incident happened, the humble duty has always felt guilty and feels ashamed of His Majesty's trust, so the humble order factory has been exploring ways and means to manufacture high-quality steel, which can be regarded as a small success." Your Majesty, you have also seen that the products produced today are enough to carry the heat of the cannon, so your Majesty can rest assured that there are no problems with the steel. ”

"Hearing you say that, then I will rest assured, okay, today we will discuss the products to be made, this time I plan to make a steam engine."

Before Chen Chen finished speaking, several workers and masters had already exploded: "Your Majesty, what is a steam engine?" We haven't heard anything like this before. ”

Chen Chen took the drawings and put them in front of him and said to everyone: "The technology of the steam engine, you must not have heard of it, and there is nothing strange about it, because once this technology comes out, then it may change the pattern of this era, I will explain to you the concept and principle of the steam engine, I think everyone should have seen the water vapor produced when boiling water." ”

They answered, "Have we all met?" What's the mystery in this? ”

Chen Chen clapped his hands: "That's right, the mystery is here, you have also seen that once this water vapor is too big, then the lid of the pot will buzz, so this is the mystery of the pot." ”

"Your Majesty intends to use the power of steam to prop up this technology?" A worker master immediately heard what Chen Chen meant, and said in disbelief.

"That's right, that's the technology, the steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical energy. A steam engine requires a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam, which can use wood, coal, oil or gas, or even garbage as a heat source, and the steam expands to push the piston to do work. Therefore, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult to develop, and it is not easy to say that it is not easy. Chen Chen explained to the workers and masters according to the technical concepts and principles.

The workers and masters all looked at Chen Chen blankly, and the explanation was too profound, and everyone couldn't understand it, so Chen Chen had to explain it to them in a language they could understand.

Only then did everyone suddenly realize: "It turns out that this is such a reason." ”

Chen Chen looked at everyone and understood, his heart was also haggard, the explanation just now, but it took him a lot of effort, it seems that it is necessary to open a new course in the future: science and technology courses.

"So let's take a look at the drawings, do you still have any questions based on what I just said?" Chen Chen let out a sigh and asked softly.

Everyone nodded their heads to indicate that they had no more problems.

"Since everyone has no problem, let's start developing, I don't know what everyone thinks?" Chen Chen couldn't wait to say to everyone.

After all, this technology still needs to be developed as soon as possible, and this technology is still relatively complex and requires a lot of time.

Once the steam engine is successfully developed, then the next locomotive and ship are time-consuming, and finally we must find a way to combine the locomotive and the steam engine, so that the operation of the steam engine and the locomotive is a very complicated and complicated procedure.

What's more, now that the world has been unified and the domestic market is close to saturation, it is indeed necessary to open a large number of overseas markets and form a maritime fleet as soon as possible, and the development and promotion of steam engine technology is even more imminent.

Moreover, external forces do not know when they will invade again, and they must have a large enough defense force before they invade. Otherwise, all the foundation will be destroyed, which Chen Chen does not want to see.

If you want to realize the dream of the rise of a great power, there is still a long way to go, and Chen Chen can only speed himself up. (To be continued.) )
