Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Strange Woman

……

Even Zhao Zhe was a little surprised. If she can use the wind, she can let her car go. Don't look at it as just a one-sentence thing, but it covers technology is quite complex. According to Zhao Zhe's own impression, only after the invention of the steam engine can it be regarded as just beginning to solve this problem. Could it be that this little girl Linglong has discovered the principle of using steam pressure to convert into mechanical power? Zhou Dai and the others, precisely because they knew the difficulty, were all incredulous.

Of course, you can't say that. couldn't help but laugh and said, "Linglong girl wants to use manpower to push and pull?" So you don't need sails anymore? It's a good idea, I'm going to get a luxury car, and dozens of cute girls like Linglong girls will lead me with ropes. Hey, Xiangche beauty. ”

Linglong was stunned, and her eyes widened. According to her head, she really can't figure out why there are such evil people in the world? Is he still complacent?

The queen was also a little unconvinced, holding Linglong's little hand, and glanced at him with pretty eyes: "Your Majesty, do you really know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?" In this world, a delicate sister was born, and God has been gracious. Where do you find dozens of them? Sister Linglong, tell him what the brilliant idea is. Save him from seeing you all over. ”

Linglong blinked her pair of beautiful eyes, looked at Zhao Zhe carefully, but shook her head and said, "He doesn't understand." ”

Zhao Zhezhi stumbled, and was so angry that he took her out of his Taishi chair and threw her aside: "Go, this is my seat, don't be big or small." Qing'er, take her down quickly, and come back to see me after some good etiquette, I still have to discuss the power of the plough with a few Aiqing. ”

"Just how many of them are Lao Zhou?" Linglong glanced at them a little unconvinced: "It's okay to get some simple things, but it's not okay to get complicated." ”

Zhao Zhe was waiting for Lao Zhou and a few of them to refute, you must know that this kind of high-tech creation is the most arrogant. Who cares if she is the daughter of the Ministry of Works. However, a few of them only dared to keep silent, and their faces were embarrassed.

"Isn't it? Ladies and gentlemen? Zhao Zhe glanced at the embarrassed faces of a few of them, and said in surprise: "She said so about you, and she didn't fight back?" What are you afraid of, don't think that her Lao Tzu is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. Don't worry, I'm here to support you. ”

"Uh, Your Majesty. This, a few of us, is not as good as Miss Linglong. Lao Zhou's face began to sweat. These words made Sailuban, who had been silent, also a little sideways. In his impression, these guys from the Ministry of Engineering still have a set.

Zhao Zhe's interest in Linglong has increased a lot, and Lao Zhou and the others, even in front of him, maintain a little pride. But in front of Linglong, he was pointed at his nose and said that they couldn't do it, but he didn't dare to put one more fart. couldn't help but look at Linglong with interest: "Tell me, how are you going to throw away the sail?" ”

"It's all said, you don't understand." Linglong glanced at Lao Zhou and the others: "Although they are not very good, at least they can understand." ”

Xu Hong, who had been sitting on the side and couldn't interject. The cold sweat almost drowned him. Hearing this, he couldn't help jumping out anymore: "Linglong, don't be presumptuous to the emperor." The emperor asked you to say, don't you say it quickly. After a pause, he immediately added: "Pick something that everyone can understand, don't come up with a set of terms." ”

Although Linglong usually doesn't listen to his father, once his father gets serious. As a daughter, she is still afraid of three points. I had to be proud of Zhao Zhe's face, and I was unwilling: "Actually, it's not difficult to explain the truth, my previous windmill has proved that as long as there is a relatively strong wind, you can push the car forward without limit." But natural winds are difficult to control whether they are there or not. But if we can create the wind and control the wind ourselves, wouldn't the problem be solved? Linglong said, found a candle directly from Zhao Zhe's desk and lit it, pursed her mouth again, and blew on the candle. After the candle was extinguished, she continued: "Actually, we ourselves can also create wind. But the key question is how to create a strong wind that doesn't need to be generated by people themselves. Everyone knows the principle of redcoat cannons and fireworks. They all use the rapid burning of gunpowder in a narrow space to produce a strong wind, and suddenly push the cannonballs or gunpowder packets out quickly. ”

When I saw everyone, I was attracted by her words. Especially the emperor who has a very bad taste, and he is also thinking about it. I couldn't help but say with a slight smugness: "So, I think the other way around." Can the wind generated by the rapid combustion of gunpowder replace the power generated by the sails and propel the car forward? I've tried it myself with a very small car, and the results are doable. But here comes the problem again, the gunpowder burns too quickly, and it is very easy to cause an explosion and cause an accident. I wondered if there was something that didn't burn as fast, but was a little more durable, to replace the gunpowder. After many experiments, I found that the net oil extracted and separated from black oil by Lao Zhou many years ago has a strong burning surname and a relatively small odor. ”

The more Linglong spoke, the more interested she became, and she began to take a pen and scribble on rice paper: "I made a semi-sealed space of copper casting according to the barrel of the gun, and let the pure oil burn in this space. The power generated by the combustion is transmitted through this copper pipe to another, tighter copper ladle. Let the power in that copper bag become stronger and stronger. It's like this. Linglong said, lighting the candle again, inhaling from her nose, and puffing out her cheeks. It's very cute, and she keeps pointing at her bulging cheeks with her long onion fingers. Then blow hard at the candle. The air stream blew out the candle fiercely. Only then did he look around proudly: "The general principle is like this, there is more and more qi in the copper ladle, just like the lungs, the more qi you inhale, the more wind you can produce." And then use that wind to push another mechanism I made. And the small mechanism will push the pinion to turn, and the pinion will push the big gear, and the big gear will directly turn the wheel...... The principle is quite simple. However, there are many more details, some of which I have already solved, and some of which I still have a headache for. I just wanted to find Lao Zhou and a few of them brainstorming. ”

Zhao Zhe's eyes were also wide. Originally, he also wanted to point out how the ancient people made the steam engine. He screamed, how Linglong's idea became more and more familiar to him the more he heard it. Before, it seems that I have also seen it on a certain forum, how do you listen to it, how does it look like the principle of internal combustion engines?

Uh, who said that the ancient Chinese were not as inventive as the Europeans? It's just that the ancient political system was really too conservative. Scholars often look down on craftsmen, and even more so on those inventors who toss and turn around all day long. Many, many inventors who are hidden in the folk are buried in this way. After a genius as intelligent as Linglong put forward the theoretical idea of converting such thermal energy into kinetic energy, who would bother with her if she hadn't met a king like herself? As she herself said, there are still many details that have not been solved, and maybe a certain key technology will not be solved in her lifetime. Perhaps, if she hadn't met herself, she would only have become a laughing stock in the mouths of those literati. Just like when she was thirteen years old, she went to the military department to ask for a red-coat cannon research. became her laughing stock, the laughing stock of her father Xu Hong.

And in China's thousands of years of history, this kind of strange talent has been buried I don't know how much. Thinking of this, Zhao Zhe couldn't help but sigh. However, this exquisite, really a monster, can actually conceive the principle of an internal combustion engine from the propulsion of gunpowder and some simple conversion of wind energy into power. Really, a genius~

Of course, ideas are just ideas, and ideas are just ideas. Even if she could make a crude internal combustion engine by herself in a matter of years, it would be impossible to mass-produce it by today's industrial standards. The industrial base of the Great Zhao Empire is really too weak.
