Song Yingxing, the word Chang Geng, Jiangxi Fengxin. This man was a generalist, and he wrote "Heavenly Creations", an encyclopedia focusing on various crafts. The book covers everything, ceramics, bricks, machinery, textiles, dyeing, coal mining, oil extraction, breeding, rice planting, etc., etc., there is nothing he does not understand.

"Heavenly Creations" covers biology, physics, chemistry and other disciplines. Song Yingxing even touched on astronomy and music, but he didn't include it in his writings because he didn't think he was proficient in these two subjects.

By the way, because Song Yingxing was extremely anti-Qing, his brother Song Yingsheng took poison and martyred the country when he died in the Ming Dynasty, and the Tartar Emperor Qianlong banned and destroyed "Tiangong Kaiwu". The book was very famous abroad, but no one knew about it in the Qing Dynasty. Guess from which country we got this masterpiece back? Japan.

Song Yingxing still wants to rely on fame. In the first two years, I just passed the exam, but I didn't pass the Jinshi exam that year. In the past two years, he was studying hard to prepare for the re-exam, but Zhou Qingfeng sent someone to tie him up in Tianjin-Ye Na went to persuade him, but naturally he was not persuaded, so he tied up his teacher. As a result, all the teachers and students of the White Deer Cave Academy where he was located were forced to run to Tianjin by boat to come to the rescue.

Before Song Yingxing arrived in Tianjin, he thought that this gang of thieves was here for his teacher. After all, his teacher Shu Yuejing's current reputation is much higher than his. But when I arrived in Tianjin, I realized that this anti-thief leader didn't care about his teacher who was famous for his poetry and writing, and the other party came for him.

This man sits at home, and evil comes from heaven. Mr. Song's stomach is not easy to dissipate. When he saw Zhou Qingfeng, he said angrily that he would never be a thief. Zhou Qingfeng has a good temper for this kind of backbone Chinese talent, he said with a shy face, "It's okay, don't be a thief now, it's good to be a dragon in the future."

encountered this kind of two-skinned face, Song Yingxing and a literati had no choice at all.

There is another person beside Song Yingxing, who is Xu Xiake who is the same age as him. Xu Xiake is a native of Jiangyin, Jiangsu, and he has no intention of becoming famous, not even a showman. He likes to travel everywhere and wander around. This talent is easier to persuade than Song Yingxing, but he is not easy to find. It was useless to send someone to his house, Zhou Qingfeng sent Jia Gang to track him all the way, and he was found in Huashan.

Xu Xiake had no interest in fame and fortune, and when he was traveling around, he often slept on the streets or in broken temples, and had very low requirements for life. But Zhou Qingfeng asked Xu Xiake to take a triplane around the sky, and he was greatly surprised, and agreed to mix with the 'revolutionary army'.

These two have been in Tianjin for two or three days, and they have already visited a lot of places, and today Zhou Qingfeng specially took the time to accompany them. One of them laughed and the other was annoyed, their attitudes were different, but they all had great curiosity about what Zhou Qingfeng said.

When Gyeonggi was attacked, the world was shaken, and Zhou Qingfeng's 'revolutionary army' had already made a name for itself on the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Song Yingxing was unconvinced, but within two days, he could see that this gang of thieves was extremely unusual. Hearing that Zhou Qingfeng wanted to bet with him, he could only admit it-no, the entire White Deer Cave Academy, including his teacher and his family, was all in Tianjin.

Zhou Qingfeng personally led the way, and politely led Song and Xu to a big house that had just been built. The house is close to a river and at first glance looks like a watermill. Outside the house, there is a high wooden canal that branches off to the farm.

"Water is indispensable for agricultural development. As long as there is water, something grows in the ground. However, due to the lack of water, a lot of fertile land is not being used. We do not have enough grain production at present, so we must cultivate and use more farmland. Zhou Qingfeng stood in front of the wooden house and said in a deep voice: "In the past, we used to dig ditches to divert water, and we used water trucks to divert water to higher places.

But there are always places where the terrain is so high that even the water truck can't carry the water up. Another example is that the water flow of this canal is gentle, and the water surface is too shallow to erect a waterwheel that cannot be rotated. In order to cultivate as much fertile land as possible, we need a more powerful machine. Please come with me to see this pump. ”

Before Watt improved the steam engine, the Newcomen steam engine had been used in coal mines to pump water. Although there are not enough steam engines that have been converted into pumping machines, it is still necessary to use a 30-horsepower steam engine as a model farm to win people's hearts.

With Zhou Qingfeng's order, the workers operating the steam engine began to boil water for the boiler. Half an hour later, the boiler pressure rises and the piston begins to work in the cylinders of the steam engine. The crankshaft began to reciprocate rapidly, making a loud rumbling sound.

In order to ensure the effect of visiting, one wall of this steam engine room is empty, so that visitors from outside can see it realistically. Song Yingxing and the others stood at the forefront, watching in amazement as the reciprocating crankshaft drove the impeller to rotate, pumping the river water up a wooden canal seven or eight meters high through a pipe. In this way, the water from the river is sent to the higher dry lands to irrigate more farmland.

"This ......, this ......." No matter how well-informed Song Yingxing is, he can't imagine the scene in front of him. He would look at the rotating impeller, the reciprocating crankshaft, and the boiler boiling water. He only saw the machine moving, only heard the hot steam gushing, and only felt the huge power of the machine, but it was unbelievable that this thing would move on its own.

"This ......, how did you do that?" Not to mention Song Yingxing, Xu Xiake was also very curious.

The onlookers all probed their brains, and Sun Yuanhua kept stepping on the back of the crowd, and finally he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't stop until he rode on the shoulders of his strong servant. But even so, his eyes widened like seeing a monster, and he didn't understand what was in front of him at all.

In response to everyone's questions, Zhou Qingfeng said very modestly: "I greatly admire Mr. Song's talent, so I took the liberty to invite Mr. Song." The gentleman has a grudge, and I understand it. But I want to say something to Mr. from the bottom of my heart, this Ming Dynasty is really coming to an end.

In less than two years, our 'revolutionary army' will have an overwhelming advantage. Entering the capital in one breath and ending the Zhu dynasty is by no means intimidating. This 'prince will have a kind of Xiangning', and now it's time to change the world. Mr. learns those eight strands and tries to take the imperial examination to become an official, but what is the use of the eight strands? If you really want to enrich the country and strengthen the army, you have to see these practical things in front of you.

I don't ask him to change his mind immediately, but I ask him to listen and watch more in my rule. The development space I can provide to my husband is much greater than that given by Mingting. Although this steam pump is sharp, it is only one of the many scientific and technological technologies of our 'revolutionary army', and there are even more powerful things.

I flew my husband to Golden State, where is the base of my 'revolutionary army', and there are more eye-popping technologies. Where does the gentleman go, he will naturally understand that Ming Ting is not my opponent at all. ”

Zhou Qingfeng said that he was heroic and full of confidence. Song Yingxing was a little stunned after being shocked, and in a trance, he followed the guards back to Tianjin City. Ye Na took him to the sky in a triplane, all the way across the sea to Golden State.

Song Yingxing flew in the sky, and in the clouds and mist, it was like entering a fairyland. As soon as he landed, he looked at Zhao Ze's machinery factory and Shi Stone's steel factory, and each of those huge machines was something he had never imagined. It was the impact of reality that brought about ideological convincing, and he could only surrender and say: "That's it, that's it, can't I take it?" ”

After being stimulated so much, Song Yingxing had nothing to say. Zhao Ze's latest large-scale steam hammer alone made him throw his body to the ground. The bracket of this giant hammer is cast with a sand mold, and after being erected, it is more than 20 meters high, and it takes great effort to build a factory. This steam hammer is specially used to forge large-caliber artillery steel blanks, and it is earth-shattering when hammered down.

"You're all so good, what else do you want me to do?" After Song Yingxing visited the steel mill again, he was also stunned by the blast furnace of more than ten meters. He thought about it again, he ran from Tianjin to Liaodong in a few hours, and this speed alone was a miracle.

Shi Stone, who received the visit, was the hardest among the traversers, and when he learned that the person in front of him was Song Yingxing, he immediately said: "Sir, come and help me, I have too many affairs, and I really need someone to help."

Sir should be very interested in smelting and chemistry, why don't you come to metallurgical chemistry and help confirm the composition of this steel. I have the relevant books in my hand, and my husband can find a way to copy the experiments one by one. Only when the composition of steel can be clarified can good steel be made. And we now have a huge demand for high-quality steel. ”

Song Yingxing's "Heavenly Creations" will not be completed until 20 years later, but at the age of 30, he is the moment of vigorous energy and the strongest research ability. To be honest, he has seen too many things and is interested in many places today. But he was still dizzy, and Stone begged him for help, and he wanted to nod his head in agreement.

"Wait......." Zhao Ze came out of nowhere and shouted loudly: "The surname is Shi, you want to duel, right?" I didn't pay attention for a while, and you came to dig the foot of the wall. He looked at Song Yingxing again, took the other party's hand and said, "Mr. Song is also quite proficient in machinery, do you want to play with the steam engine, it is the one who scared you this afternoon."

It was a 250-horsepower steam engine that I was trying to build, ready to be used on a battleship. With it, our ship can sail without sails, rampant across the seas, and raise the prestige of China thousands of miles away.

Originally, after this thing was finished, I should have made 500 horsepower. But if there is a gentleman to help, I dare to go directly to a thousand horsepower. Think of it, how great is the power of a thousand horses! ”

Song Yingxing nodded stunned, thinking: "Yes, that machine can not only move on its own, but also output huge power, which is terrifying." If this thing had been made, it would have been enough to make a name for generations to come. ”

Seeing that Song Yingxing was about to change his mind, Shi Dong shouted with red eyes: "Sir, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. Without me making steel, how could he have the materials to make a steam engine? ”

Zhao Ze immediately retorted, "Without Lao Tzu making a steam engine, how can you have the motivation to launch a high-power blower to raise the furnace temperature?" Without me to make converters for you, your steel production would be a tragedy. ”

The two quarreled with each other, but they found that Li Shuwei didn't know when to pull Song Yingxing over, and was muttering something, 'Agriculture is the foundation of people's livelihood, Mr. has written a lot in agriculture, it is better to come to agriculture more down-to-earth'. The two immediately joined forces to drive Li Shuwei away first.

What everyone said seemed to make sense, and Song Yingxing was not familiar with everyone. He was dragged around by these people in a daze, and finally could only shout: "You are all talents, so you can't afford to be loved." It's better to let the marshal assign the next position, and let the next do anything. ”

With the help of Jia Gang's body radio, the problem was kicked in front of Zhou Qingfeng like a ball. Zhou Qingfeng immediately set a clear task for Song Yingxing - spring steel, spring steel, spring steel, let Lao Song do spring steel. Lao Tzu waited for the flintlock pistol to wait for the flowers, and he had to thank him.
