Wan Linggen shook his head, "The money in the fund is not from me, so it can't be called Wan's, I think it's called the Golden Hand Award, most of our inventions and creations are handmade, and it is most appropriate to name it." ”

Shen Mingzhu and Mo Qingfeng both clapped their hands, and Wan Linggen said with a smile: "Any invention and creation that is beneficial to the people can be applied, and then the review committee will review it, and finally decide the attribution of the award." ”

Shen Mingzhu and Mo Qingfeng didn't understand these things at all, so whatever he said was what it was. After he finished speaking, Mo Qingfeng asked, "Dashuai, what do you want these things for?" ”

Wan Linggen smiled mysteriously, "I'm going to do some experiments." Master Mo, you call some more people, and we'll start now. ”

More than two dozen people gathered around Wan Linggen, watching him put together the strange-shaped parts one by one, and then added half a bucket of water to a half-human-high cylindrical container, and then closed the lid tightly, "Master Mo, it's time to heat it now!" ”

Mo Qingfeng ordered someone to carry the closed barrel to the furnace car and fix it, and ignited the coal below, and after a short time, there was a sound of clattering in the barrel.

Wan Linggen opened a small lid on it, and a stream of hot water vapor erupted, and he nodded, "Almost!" Then he pressed the lid tightly, and opened the end of a round pipe near the top of the barrel wall, and white steam erupted, from which a whining screech reverberated through the workshop.

"Bring that box here!" Wan Linggen pointed to the one that had just been assembled, with two wheels underneath.

The crowd pushed the box over, and Wan Linggen told them to lift it up a bit, fix it to the furnace cart, and then stuffed the steam-spewing iron pipe into the hole in the top of the box. There was a strange creak, and the two wheels under the box began to spin slowly.

Everyone held their breath and stared intently at the two wheels, which were spinning faster and faster.

Wan Linggen clapped his hands and said, "This is what I want!" ”

Mo Qingfeng frowned and asked, "Dashuai, what's the use of this thing?" ”

Wan Linggen smiled: "Master Mo, I can't say how useful this thing is now, but it is not an exaggeration to say that it can open up the world." ”

Even Shen Mingzhu looked at him in disbelief, Wan Linggen pointed to the two fast-spinning wheels and said, "If those two wheels are running on the ground, do you say, will it be faster than a horse?" ”

"Can you run on the ground?" The crowd seemed to understand something, and one person sighed: "It is absolutely impossible for a horse to run so fast on its four legs!" ”

Everyone nodded yes.

Wan Linggen turned off the lid on the tube and said to the thoughtful Mo Qingfeng, "Master Mo, I need you to help me solve a few problems now." He pointed to the discolored box, "We need to soak most of it in water to cool it down, and then we need to direct that water back into this bucket to form a water cycle, and then we need to separate these transmissions and let people manipulate their clutches so that we can control its speed." ”

Seeing that Mo Qingfeng still didn't understand too much, he leaned down and spoke in detail.

Coming out of the workshop, Wan Linggen couldn't hide his excitement, the industrial revolution in the West started with the steam engine, so now do they have this thing? Of course it can't be, in his memory, the first industrial revolution in Britain began in the eighteenth century, and if he could have made the steam engine at this time, then the later era would have become the Chinese century completely!

Will I go down in history too? Wan Linggen thought like this, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and he walked lightly.

"Xianggong, what's wrong with you?" Shen Mingzhu saw that his expression was strange, and asked.

"Mingzhu, do you know when the steam engine came into existence in the West?" Wan Linggen asked excitedly.

Shen Mingzhu shook his head, "I don't know." What is the West? ”

Wan Linggen was speechless for a moment, and secretly scolded himself for getting carried away, what age is this, and what is there any talk about the East and the West. "That's another place with a lot of countries," he scoffed. ”

Shen Mingzhu glanced at him, bowed his head and was silent.

Wan Linggen was still immersed in his boundless illusions, "Mingzhu, do you know where there is magnetite? ”

Shen Mingzhu said quietly: "You're talking about magnet mines, right?" ”

Wan Linggen nodded, "Yes, it should be that thing." ”

Shen Mingzhu said: "Yes." It's just that it's extremely difficult to mine, and it's not very useful. ”

Wan Linggen shook his head and said, "Mingzhu, you are wrong. That's a baby! ”

"Baby?" Shen Mingzhu looked at him and asked, "In addition to using it on the guide car, what else is there to use?" ”

Wan Linggen smiled: "With it, I can get the electricity out." ”

"Electricity? What's that? A faint trace of sorrow flashed in Shen Mingzhu's eyes.

Wan Linggen was unaware of it, and continued to say with great interest: "Electricity, oh yes, you have seen thunder and lightning, right? It's similar to it, except that this kind of electricity can be controlled, and it can be used for too many purposes, such as ......" He was stunned when he said this, what is the use of electricity in this era? He didn't have Edison's ability to get a light bulb out.

"What's wrong?" Shen Mingzhu looked at him strangely and asked.

Wan Linggen was a little disappointed, "What's the use of electricity, I haven't thought about it yet, I'll tell you when I think about it." After speaking, he quickened his pace.

Shen Mingzhu slowed down, looked at his back and suddenly said, "With that thing, can you leave here?" ”

Wan Linggen was stunned, stopped, and slowly turned around.

"Mingzhu, what's wrong with you?" He saw two lines of tears streaming down her eyes.

Shen Mingzhu wiped away the tears on her face and said softly: "Those sisters are gone, I have never seen you mention them, have you never thought about it?" Still is...... Or do you just not want to stay here at all? ”

Wan Linggen was completely stunned, his mind was full of thoughts, and he was in chaos for a while.

Shen Mingzhu saw that he didn't speak, thinking that he had been right, and the tears in his eyes increased again, "Also, what kind of steam engine did you make, do you want to leave here with that thing?" ”

Wan Linggen suddenly laughed out loud, "Mingzhu, what do you want?" No matter how magical that thing is, it can't send me home. ”

Shen Mingzhu said in a trembling voice: "So you really want to go back?!" ”

"Go back?" Wan Linggen looked into the distance with his eyes and muttered, "Where are you going back?" "Standing there for a moment, wandering away from the world again.
