Zhao Yan suddenly moved to the south, which made Mao Geng feel inexplicably uneasy.

The successful test of the three-expansion steam engine did not bring the expected excitement to Mao Geng. Yes, the prototype trial operation of a three-expansion steam engine has been successful, the next step is the load test, it is estimated that the problem will not be too big, at most it is a problem of high and low thermal efficiency, the problem of thermal efficiency is a continuous improvement process, it cannot be achieved overnight.

After the success of the triple expansion steam engine, it seems that it is ready to start the voyage expedition mode.

When she returned home in the evening, even Su Zhiyan felt Mao Geng's thoughts, so she thoughtfully asked:

"Husband, are you uncomfortable? Look at you, everyone is on holiday, but you are the busiest, and you don't have a break! ”

Mao Geng noticed his love problem at this time, saying that this was a holiday, so Mao Geng smiled and coaxed:

"It's alright! It's okay. Madame, I have good news, would you like to hear it? ”

"Hehe, what new technology has succeeded, yes and no?"

"Not bad, not bad! Madam, you guessed accurately, but what I said is another good news, madam, if the emperor appoints you as the wife of the decree, is this a great news? ”

"Oh, no! Oh no! No! The husband is a great merit to my Great Song Dynasty, and the emperor can't praise it too much, so to speak, the cheap concubine is blessed by the husband and the wife, and she is also very status. Hehe, of course this is good news. ”

Mao Geng looked at Su Zhiyan with an excited face, and sighed that she was only eighteen years old, and she was just a pink high school student in the future, so it was not surprising that she was so excited.

Su Zhiyan has been pregnant for more than three months, her lower abdomen is slightly raised, Mao Geng affectionately touched Su Zhiyan's bulging lower abdomen, and then kissed Su Zhiyan's pretty face shallowly, only to see Su Zhiyan's pretty face shy, revealing a delicate daughter's attitude, which made Mao Geng feel particularly warm.

This night, Mao Geng hugged Su Zhiyan and slept together, but he didn't sleep steadily. As the saying goes, I think about it day and night, and in my sleep, there is really a grand ceremony, I hold Su Zhiyan, slowly walk up to the high platform, and accept the reward of the emperor from above------。

In this era, whether they are happy or not, successful or not, there is no standard for the general public, it seems that the standards are determined by the imperial power and the scholar circle, and the standard of the scholar circle seems to be the standard of imperial power, but it is only crowned with the banner of Confucianism - in the name of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith.

His original intention was to keep a distance from the imperial power, but it seemed that he was in the mortal world, and if he wanted to do something, he couldn't avoid the imperial power, Mao Geng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

On the fifteenth day, Mao Geng had something in his heart, his excitement was really insufficient, and he didn't even bother to pay attention to the preparation of the party, and suddenly remembered the water glass that Zhao Yuchun said yesterday, yes, water glass can be used to produce waterproof materials, and we may not need to use the troublesome method of tung oil lime bamboo silk twist to block the seams and waterproof, well, Gu Yongqiang is known as a chemical expert, and listen to his ideas.

"Water glass, is a good thing, the production of water glass is not difficult, the dry method is calcination, the wet method is better, but the wet production of water glass has to wait for the pressure vessel to pass the customs, in fact, now it can also be made with wet production, but the safety is not guaranteed."

Gu Yongqiang really got tens of thousands of essential oils in chemistry, and as soon as he said it casually, he said the dry and wet method, which made Mao Geng admire.

"However, used to do shipbuilding waterproofing, I'm afraid it is not reliable, I think it is still the traditional tung oil lime twist that works, of course, in the temporary plugging leakage, you can try the waterproofing agent made of water glass, that is simple, is to add a little alum, you can get the waterproofing agent, but what the effect, try to know."

Hearing Gu Yongqiang say this, Mao Geng was very discouraged.

"Wait, you reminded me that the reaction of water glass and sulfuric acid can make silica gel, and the use of silica gel is wider than that of water glass."

"Silicone? Dude, no! Is it so simple to get the kind of thing that women in later generations have breast augmentation? ”

Gu Yongqiang laughed and said:

"Where do you think, I said that this is inorganic silica gel, not organic silica gel, is silicic acid gel, the main ingredient is silica, don't underestimate inorganic silica gel, it is actually a good desiccant, by the way, it can also be used in precision casting, it is estimated that it is still very useful for you. As for breast augmentation, **, that is the category of silicone, silicone that thing, it is quite difficult to get it out, anyway, I don't touch it. ”

The desiccant has a hairy use! Mao Geng's excited mood just now disappeared all of a sudden, but he was irritable again, and it was almost noon at this time, so he waved his hand and said:

"Alright, alright! Let's not talk about technology, today is the Lantern Festival, come on, since you are single, let's get two dishes, how about a drink here? ”

Mao Geng has a good impression of Gu Yongqiang, and he feels more right than Lao Qiu, maybe it will be easier to chat with Gu Yongqiang.

A greeting went down, and someone went to the restaurant to order a drink.

Before the food arrived, the two opened a pot of wine and drank it.

As for the wine, I don't have to worry, there are several bags of dried fish in Mao Geng's office.

It is said that this dried fish is produced in Hokkaido, that is, Xia Yi Island, and the catch caught on Xia Xia Island is too rich, so I have to engage in various deep processing, such as drying dried fish, grinding fish meal, and then processing it into dried fish of various flavors.

As an advocate of entering Xia Yi Island, Mao Geng naturally has the responsibility to promote various products on Xia Yi Island, so Mao Geng, who originally didn't like to eat snacks, would chew dried fish when he had nothing to do, and sometimes even used it to entertain visitors. It must be said that Mao Geng's unsparing promotion is still quite effective, as a snack, dried fish is really popular now.

"This dried fish tastes okay! Chewy, good to drink. "Mao Gengkua dried fish is already a habit of nature, a bit of Xianglin's sister-in-law's possession.

"Well, that's good! Not bad! Gu Yongqiang was perfunctory, and said in his heart that you have praised it eight hundred times, hehe, every time you come to your office, you will hand over a piece of dried fish, and you will praise the dried fish violently. Every time it reminds Gu Yongqiang of the days when cigarettes never leave his hand in later generations, it is a pity that there are no cigarettes in this era, if he meets an acquaintance and hands over a cigarette, it will be exciting.

After three glasses of wine, Mao Geng asked:

"Dude, what do you think of the Song Dynasty?"

"Oh, how to say it, in fact, I think the Song Dynasty is really good, the government is relaxed, and it pays special attention to people's livelihood. The imperial court has set up a standing position and a Huimin warehouse, which can provide relief materials in a timely manner in case of disaster, and there are also public welfare institutions such as nursing homes and Anjifang that specialize in relieving widows and orphans. As for the young man, then don't worry, if you can't eat, just go to be a soldier, anyway, the court is afraid that you won't have anything to eat to rebel, my Great Song Dynasty has always been open to recruiting soldiers, and those who come will not refuse, and when you become a soldier, you will hold an iron rice bowl, damn! Just this point, it is stronger than the future generations! If we want to represent the interests of the broad masses of the people, in my opinion, the Song Dynasty is the one who will not give in. ”

The welfare policy of the Song Dynasty was a bit unprecedented, and the Ming and Qing dynasties could not match it, which Mao Geng also appreciated very much. However, it can't be compared to the future generations, Mao Geng smiled:

"The situation you said is a bit exaggerated, there is still a threshold for recruiting troops in the Great Song Dynasty, and not everyone can enter. However, the Great Song Dynasty is almost such a concept, as long as you don't rebel, the imperial court will spend money to support you, just by virtue of this, the Great Song Dynasty seems to be really a welfare society. ”

Gu Yongqiang wiped his mouth and complained:

"There is one point, the Great Song Dynasty is known as the Great Song Dynasty, and there are only a few provinces! Wretch! Can't win the Liao State, even the Western Xia dares to lose, and in the end it was ** by the Jin soldiers, it's really weak! ”

Mao Geng sighed and sighed:

"The level of war in the Great Song Dynasty is indeed a bit scum, but fortunately we came, and the Mongols were not so lucky."

While talking, the "takeaway" arrived, four dishes and one soup were put on the coffee table, and the two hurriedly stuffed the real food into their mouths.

They looked at each other and smiled, "Drink!" ”

After drinking a glass of wine and licking his lips, Gu Yongqiang said:

"Last year's battle of the Thirteen Wings, Temujin defeated, his pants were lost, and now he is licking his wounds, do the math, he is still far from success, this year is 1191, in history in 12o3 years, Temujin will also suffer a big defeat, only more than 4,000 soldiers and horses are left to follow him and flee, to 12o6, Temujin unified Mongolia and became Genghis Khan."

"Isn't it! I originally thought that Genghis Khan would win all battles, but after Mr. Qian's popular science, I knew that Genghis Khan was a bitter man before he was forty years old. ”

"So, I'm very much in favor of Maote's approach, the Great Song Dynasty is already good in other aspects, let's leave it alone, let's engage in the Special Zone, and climb the technology tree in the Special Zone under our control, anyway, we have time, right! At least fifteen years to go, these fifteen years, machine guns must be able to be built, if you don't get an airplane, you can also build an airplane, with a machine gun, the threat of cavalry is much smaller, with an airplane, you can easily sweep the cavalry in the sky, hehe, kill Genghis Khan, no suspense! ”

Everyone loves to listen to good words, and Mao Geng is no exception, Mao Geng is already drunk at this time, and he no longer has any scruples:

"Song Xiaozong Zhao Yan is a person who is full of benevolence and filial piety, in fact, he is a very strong emperor, he has been the emperor for more than 20 years, and the prime minister is like a marquee. The one who has been the prime minister for the longest time is the eight-faced and exquisite Wang Huai, Wang Huai, the prime minister, basically does whatever Zhao Yan says, and he has only been in the prime minister's position for seven years. In my opinion, the current emperor can't tolerate strong courtiers, so Xin Qiji, a strong courtier, is destined not to gain power, and Zhu Xi, who is also strong, is also unwilling. I asked myself, the ability to mix with officialdom is limited, and if I take the route of being an official, I may not be able to mix with the official position that can affect the emperor in 30 years, so I have no choice but to take the road of the special zone. ”

"I think about it, that is, this method of establishing a special zone works, it is not easy to be an official in the Song Dynasty, and the difficulty of being a big official is unimaginable, the most important thing is that it is too difficult to transform a system, Wang Anshi's failure to reform is a lesson from the past, even if he is the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, what can he do! It is also difficult to go far in a rich country and a strong army. However, the SAR is a good method, and it can be called a shortcut to the south. ”

"Well, I liked fishing in my previous life, and the biggest secret of fishing is to cast the bait and wait patiently, as long as you have enough patience, there will always be someone who will take the bait. In my mind, the SAR is a big bait for those who wish to catch it. It looks like there's a big fish coming up soon. ”

"What big fish? I don't understand what you mean, Maote. In Gu Yongqiang's eyes, Mao Geng spoke a little incoherently.

Of course you don't understand, I'm talking about Zhao Yan's preparation for a southern tour, Zhao Yan is a lot old, he has never conducted inspections before, and now he is actually coming to the Special Administrative Region to inspect, which shows how tempting this big bait is.

"The problem is, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for me, and maybe my special temporary position is coming to an end."

Gu Yongqiang said in his heart, Mao Te really drank too much.
