Chapter 38 Watermills and Boats

Baili Wuji thought that she was angry and unwilling, and said a little anxiously: "If Yun'er is unintentional, Wuji is naturally inconvenient to force it, and don't be angry with Wuji." ”

Lu Shiyun said softly: "Can you let go first?" ”

Baili Wuji suddenly woke up, no, he kept holding Lu Shiyun's little hand and didn't let go, he was stunned to pinch out the sweat of his hand, and hurriedly let go and said: "Mowgli is formless, the rhyme is not strange." ”

Lu Shiyun said: "Ziqing has this idea, the world is very lucky, Yun'er is not talented, and he should do his best." Students from all over the world gathered together, Ziqing, you are so bold. ”

Seeing that Lu Shiyun was not angry, Baili Wuji said with a fat heart: "Yun'er praised it falsely, Wuji thought that with Yun'er by his side, this life was enough." ”

Lu Shiyun gritted her teeth again and scolded lightly: "Scoundrel." ”

Baili Wuji smiled and said to Lu Shiyun: "If you have any flaws in the future, Wuji will take you to visit the Spring Garden, it is another masterpiece of Ma Xifan, it is gorgeous." ”

Lu Shiyun sighed lightly and said: "If it weren't for this Tiance Mansion and Huichun Garden, how could the people of Chu be so poor, and how could Chu fall into the hands of Ziqing, Ziqing should take it as a warning." ”

Baili Wuji looked at Lu Shiyun playfully: "Yun'er, do you think Wuji is the kind of person who loves beauty and doesn't love the country?" ”

Lu Shiyun spat lightly: "Ziqing is formless again." ”

The fifth day of the third month of the third year of Shu Guangzheng.

The king of Chu, Baili Wuji, changed the Tiance Mansion to a polymath mansion.

There are six schools of literature, industry, agriculture, commerce, law, and military education. Literature consists of four subjects: Ming Jing, Ming Li, Current Affairs, and Medical Science; There are four departments of engineering: smelting, equipment, tools, and workshops; Agronomy consists of two departments: crops, astronomy and meteorology; There is a course of business science; There are two departments of law, law and law; There are three departments under the military science: martial arts, ordnance, and tactics. A total of 16 subjects.

There are also lecture halls, debate halls, lecture halls, trial production halls, and dialectic halls. A total of five classes.

History is known as erudition in sixteen subjects and five classes.

The edict tells the world that regardless of the rich and poor, regardless of origin, all talented people can be appointed as seniors after assessment. All the people under the rule of the Chu State, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, or whether they are from a background, as long as they pass the state examination, they can enter the government to study for free. All the funds required by the polymath are provided by the government. Three years later, all officials below the fifth rank in the state of Chu were filled by students who had completed their studies and passed the assessment.

The reform of the imperial examinations, no longer opening the imperial examinations, changing the imperial examinations to students, opening state schools in the state capital, and opening county schools in the county government, which were set up by the government and allocated funds, were for official education.

The top 200 students will enter the county school, and the top 100 will enter the state school, and the top 30 will enter the erudite institution. As long as the scholars enter the county school, they no longer need to pay the tuition fees, and the government will bear them. In order to bridge the gap between the old and the new, this new measure was implemented two years later. Within two years, it will still be based on the old system.

For a time, the world shook, and countless scholars and craftsmen gathered in Changsha, and the people of Chu were overjoyed. In the past, although there was a rule that the imperial examination did not ask about the family background, because the people were poor and had no money to provide for their children to study, the regulations were useless. Nowadays, as long as the people bear the cost of their children's private school before entering the county school, the government will bear it later, which means that the passage from the cold gate to the sea has been opened, and the people are naturally happy. And the original nobles and powerful people of the Chu State had resentment in their hearts, the number of officials was limited, and some of them were given to the people, so they naturally had less share, so they began to secretly collude.

For a new Chu State, all the officials are old Chu, and vested interest groups are naturally dissatisfied with Baili Wuji's use of administrative tricks to absorb and divide their interests, but the army is in the hands of Baili Wuji, they can only secretly form a party and wait for the time to come.

In Baili Wuji's heart, it is an inevitable measure to rectify the officialdom of Chu State, but now the time has not come, he needs to slowly raise those poisonous sores slowly, let it slowly suppurate, and then squeeze it out hard.

……。

The eighth day of the third month of the third year of Shu Guangzheng.

After receiving the report, Yang Shi completed the construction of the first small warship, the waterwheel ship, and sailed it to Tanzhou. Baili Wuji took Xu Shiming and others to the dock to inspect.

The waterwheel ship was named after the simple moving wheel drive principle of the waterwheel type transplanted to the warship. The pedal is mounted directly on the paddle axle and pedaled at the same time to generate power. Installing foot pedals in the ship can not only avoid the limitation of the sails, increase the flexibility of the warship, but also protect the safety of the soldiers who operate the boat.

The transmission device with a set of wooden crankshaft components is built-in, which is pushed by manpower to make the pedal and connecting rod move in a reciprocating linear manner, and outputs continuous power to the wheel shaft through the crankshaft system to drive the paddle wheel to row forward or backward. The wooden crankshaft member resembles a mixture of a car rocker and a bicycle pedal, with one end fixed to a wooden wheel on a paddle axle and one end fixed to several long planks by a rotatable bracket.

Seeing this, Baili Wuji's heart moved, and he immediately ordered Xu Shiming to gather craftsmen from ordnance, smelting, etc. to visit this transmission device.

The paddle wheel propulsion on both sides of the boat consists of two separate parts, which are adjusted by one paddle wheel turning and the other not turning. When turning, the boatman does not move on one leg and presses the other, keeping the same pace, so that the boatman can easily choose the sailing route.

In order to speed up the ship, a paddle wheel was also added to the stern of the warship, parallel to the paddle wheels on both sides, so that the tail had a propulsion and the ship was faster.

Watermills and boats are small and fast, and can carry about 12 to 16 people. It is suitable for navigating inland rivers and rivers.

After watching the sailing of the waterwheel ship in the Yangtze River, Baili Wuji found that this ship was quite good as a scout ship or assault ship, with a small size, fast speed, and flexible turn. If you carry artillery, it will be very useful.

It's a pity that there is no artillery at the moment, and the grenade alone is too close to throw, and the power is too small, so it seems that only wheel guns can be configured.

Baili Wuji commended the relevant personnel of the Ship Institute and inquired about the manufacturing progress of the medium-sized warship Haigu warship.

At the same time, the requirement to replace wooden crankshaft members with cast iron crankshaft members was proposed.

The next day, the personnel from all parties visited the waterwheel ship again, and when they saw the transmission device of the wooden crankshaft components, Baili Wuji asked everyone to think about whether to use other power instead of human pedaling and pushing.

Baili Wuji let several of the craftsmen get on the boat and trample on it.

At the same time, let people lift the pot of water that has been prepared for the pot and start boiling, and the action of the lid up and down corresponds to the action of human trampling up and down, and then ...... corresponding to the action of human stepping up and down.

Looking at everyone's fascinate expressions, Baili Wuji quietly left with Xu Shiming and others.

The rest is up to them.

……。

There was no progress in the development of artillery, but there was good news from the equipment institute. The craftsman improved the wheel gun again, and added cast iron gears to the wheel rotating transmission shaft, and used the large gear of the rocker arm to drive the small gear of the runner, which saved effort and accelerated the rotation speed of the wheel, so that the effective throwing distance was increased by more than ten zhang.

Listening to the report, Baili Wuji couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, the artillery he wanted had not progressed, but the unintentionally inserted wheel artillery was constantly improving, and he had to sigh God's tricks.
