Chapter 1575 - Electromagnetic Rambling
However, even if it is an ammeter, it is not something that Xue Fengzuo can imagine.
Zhu Jie's sentence by sentence smashed Xue Fengzuo's originally happy and proud heart, every sentence was to the point, Xue Fengzuo's face was discouraged, he had only knocked on the door of electricity and magnetism for several years, but he didn't expect that the emperor would already stand in the lobby and wave to him, is this the gap between talent and genius?
"Your Majesty, this, this, is the minister is too arrogant, he thinks that a little achievement can be proud, but he didn't expect that the emperor has already seen it well, the minister is ashamed, and the minister ......is guilty."
Xue Fengzuo said ashamedly.
"Mr. Xue, what do you mean by this?"
Zhu Jie was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Xue, everything has its profound and profound research, not something that can be pondered through in a year or two, electromagnetic induction is a more profound knowledge, I am also a layman, just put forward a few suggestions for your research and discuss it together, if you have already begun to be discouraged in this way, how can science and technology progress?" Do you expect me to study this electromagnetic induction? How can it be? First, I am not a scientist, and I do not have the spirit and knowledge of you. Second, I have a lot of government affairs, and I don't have the time and energy to study electromagnetic induction, what I can do is to find some problems for you, so that your research can be smoother, if I disrupt your research ideas, it is my fault, I apologize to you. ”
"No, no, no!"
Xue Fengzuo hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, every sentence you say is insightful, hitting the point, it is really Lingchen is like an initiation, the minister can't wait for you to give the minister a few more words, if the minister groped alone, the minister said, there is no five to ten years of effort, don't think about being able to figure out the mystery of it, now the emperor has drawn a framework to the minister, the minister only needs to follow the map, maybe three or two years will be able to study it thoroughly, Chen will definitely not give up the study of electromagnetism!" ”
Zhu Jie nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, you scared me just now, I thought that my words would knock you down!" Mr. Xue, all physics is mathematics in the end, and even almost all physical theorems need to be deduced by mathematics with numbers and equations, and the same is true for electromagnetic theory, you have a deep study of mathematics, but you don't have much involvement in geometry and analytic geometry, and you can devote some energy to the research of Western mathematics in the future. ”
"What the emperor said is that the minister has been studying Western mathematics since he arrived at Shuntian Academy to make up for the shortcomings of Chinese mathematics, but Western mathematics is also quite spiritual, and it takes some time for the minister to be able to master it all......"
Zhu Jie nodded, and then said: "Not only you, but also other scholars, or that sentence, mathematics and physics are inseparable, the derivation of physics mysteries is all done through mathematics, with the help of mathematical formulas to express, electromagnetic theory is even more so, you deepen the longitudinal study of electromagnetic theory, the entire electromagnetic theory system excavated, instead of a superficial taste, our Chinese scholars for the study of physics too often are superficial, without in-depth search for their internal laws, For example, lightning, the brightness of lightning, which is miles or even tens or hundreds of miles away from where we are, and its light is still dazzling, can we also create light through electricity? I believe that it is possible, absolutely, but without the establishment of the electromagnetic doctrine system, this cannot be completed! Also, the current can also be stored, and when it is time to use it, it can be released, how to store it? ”
Xue Fengzuo was stunned when he heard this, and muttered: "Your Majesty, lightning has always been fleeting, and it has always been difficult to catch, and the minister has never heard that electricity can be stored, what kind of knowledge is this......?"
Zhu Jie was patient and explained: "Mr. Xue, this is the problem of energy conversion, all the energy in the world is to maintain a balance, one energy is less, the other energy will increase, just like yin and yang, it is precisely because energy can be transformed, so we can imagine that the electricity is converted into a kind of energy and stored, and when it is used, this energy is released and converted into electricity, isn't this equivalent to storing electricity?" However, this requires a medium, which means a container and space for storing electricity, and as for how to store it, I won't say much, so as not to mislead you! ”
Xue Fengzuo's face was bitter, and when he was listening to it, the emperor didn't continue, it was really a shallow taste, isn't this going to kill himself, and digging so many pits in one go, he will not even have bones left......
"Your Majesty, you have explained so much to the minister in one breath, I am afraid that each direction will involve a lot of manpower, material resources, and time, where is the minister who can complete it with two students alone......"
Xue Fengzuo smiled bitterly.
"Isn't that easy?"
Zhu Jie smiled lightly: "Mao Gong! ”
Mao Yuanyi, who was on the side, hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, what do you command?" ”
"Doesn't your Ministry of Science and Technology have a science and technology fund now? Allocate 100,000 yuan of silver from the science and technology fund to fund Xue Fengzuo to build an electromagnetic laboratory, so that he can recruit students and assistants to study the theory of electromagnetism, this field is a broader field than the steam engine, and the whole world will change because of the theory of electromagnetism in the future! Don't say 100,000 silver dollars, even if it's millions of silver dollars, I still have to fund Xue Fengzuo's research! ”
Zhu Jie said.
Mao Yuanyi almost cried, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, there are only a total of one million taels of silver in the science and technology fund, and now there are more than 20 colleges prepared by the imperial court and the people, and there are already eight strong ones, these funds are directly allocated to the college every year, and there are overall arrangements for the college, and now at the end of the year, the science and technology fund has been exhausted, where is there still 100,000 yuan of silver dollars available, the emperor, you better find another way......
Zhu Jie's face turned dark, wiped it, a million taels of silver, your Ministry of Science and Technology didn't blink your eyes, and threw it out to me!
"Good, good! Mao Gong, you guys are really getting bigger and bigger! ”
Zhu Jie didn't have a good breath and said, "Okay, this money, I took it out from my private family, but with benefits, there is no matter of your Ministry of Science and Technology, send a decree to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Zhu Neng, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, will allocate 100,000 silver dollars to build an electromagnetic research laboratory in Shuntian College, Mr. Xue, you said that you can have results in two or three years, I don't ask you so much, give you more than ten years, I will take out 10,000 silver dollars to fund you every year, you have to study this electromagnetic theory for me thoroughly, haha, go, I won't bother Mr. Xue much!" ”
