He also remembered that in the construction of a palace, sometimes a large stone slab was used, and ten or twenty people could not move it, so they would use a dozen or so round wooden sticks to put them under the stone slabs, and the first few people would pull the stone slabs with ropes, and then one or two people in front and back would move the wooden slabs, and with the concerted efforts of the people, they would be able to move the stone slabs with the least effort.

"Iron wheels were used instead of wooden wheels for carriages, and the carports were cast with copper and iron, and hot water was boiled with coal, and the steam produced propelled the iron wheels."

He dared to speak his imagination, looking at her a little nervously, expecting her opinion.

"Very powerful!" An Jingyu responded with warm applause, really admiring Zhongli Huasen's wisdom.

She snapped her fingers, and Yan Huan quickly went to the study to get a stack of drawings, a full twenty.

She divided two copies and handed them to Xiao Yi and Zhongli Huasen to read, and it was very quiet for a while, only the sound of breathing remained.

"Amazing!" Xiao Yi was the first to exclaim, although he didn't know much about the mechanical design drafts of the drawings and paintings, and he couldn't read them, he could still understand the detailed notes written on them.

"The steam engine is the most elementary locomotive that uses coal as the power and the steam engine as the core."

"A steam engine needs a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam, which can use wood, coal, oil or gas or even combustible garbage as a heat source, and the steam expands to push the piston to do work."

He also read it out loud, his eyes shining at her.

She was silent, only raised her eyebrows, and treated it indifferently.

Zhongli Huasen was more calm, and he had been looking at the mechanical design drafts of the steam engine in his hand, and the design drawings of every word and part on the paper were carefully examined.

"Yu'er, you ......" He wanted to speak and stopped, it was really shocking! As Xiao Di said, once this steam engine is known to outsiders, I am afraid it will cause a storm and an uproar.

I don't know if it's good or bad?

How the hell did she imagine it?

If it is really made, it is really a great move, a tool for the benefit of the country and the people.

Even the beginning of the industrial age, Zhong Liguo has prospered in commerce in recent years, and has been in the transition period of the budding capitalism, although it is heavy on agriculture but does not suppress business, the country has also attached great importance to commerce in the past ten years, vigorously developing commerce, and the tax revenue has reached two-fifths of the wealth of the entire imperial court, and the agricultural tax is only one-fifth.

With this behemoth steam locomotive, the goods can be transported to various places at the fastest speed, of course, the production of this steam engine with the current craftsman technology, there is still a little difficulty, but he believes that with the wisdom of the Chinese craftsmen, as long as a little gap is opened, the world can be spied.

"This thing is dedicated to the imperial court for free, I just need to exchange it for my free body, oh no, and the freedom of An Yue, Yan Huan and Wei Ming."

She looked confident as if she was in control, and she wasn't at all worried about Zhongli Watson defecting or monopolizing the blueprints of the steam locomotive.

That's right! Some time ago, she spent nearly a month writing and painting in her study, just for this steam engine, and for a while in her previous life she was very fond of European history, especially the industrial revolution that arose in the eighteenth century.

She was very familiar with the mechanics of the steam engine, but it took a lot of effort and thought to make the effect more detailed and clear.

A steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work. The advent of the steam engine led to the Industrial Revolution in the West in the 18th century.

Until the beginning of the 20th century, it remained the most important prime mover in the world, and later gradually gave way to internal combustion engines and steam turbines, among others.

She is not a criminal who is full of evil and everyone shouts and beats, as long as she recovers her freedom and leaves the Red Mansion, this is no loss for the imperial court.

Nor did she want any reward of gold, silver, and jewelry, nor did she want the reputation of the inventor of the world-famous steam engine.

Of course, that wasn't what she deserved, she didn't need it.

"Yu'er has made a great contribution, but Zhong Liguo is a great hero, and it is easy to restore his freedom, right. Zhongli? The more Xiao Yi looked at An Jingyu, the more she appreciated it, and the more she felt that she was a goddess who benefited the people.

Zhongli Watson had a serious and cold look on his face, and he didn't smile the whole time. "This matter must be considered in the long run, and the outside world cannot reveal a word."

An Jingyu nodded, her expression serious.

"Whatever you want, just let me leave the Red Chamber and regain my freedom for an ordinary reason before my birthday, I don't want any reward, and I don't want the copyright of this invention of the steam engine, it's better to know that the number of people whose author is limited to a single digit, too many people know that sooner or later I will be exposed."

She just wanted to leave quickly, it was the end of August now, and there were about forty days left before her birthday. I don't know what Zhong Liguo's ***** and cabinet ministers will think and attitude, will they think she is a monster?

"Don't worry, Yu'er, I'll let you go as soon as possible. This thing is so shocking, you have a lot of credit, and I will try to fight for your interests.

I was really impressed, Brother Xiao said that you are a heavenly girl, I didn't believe it at first, but now I have to believe it, really. ”

Zhongli Watson relaxed and showed a rare happy smile. Holding her Qianqian jade fingers, he looked at her affectionately.

His performance today surprised him so much that he will never forget it.

Her soul came from a soul from another world, how strange it was!

"I believe in you." She smiled back, but Xiao Yi was jealous and held her other hand.

"Yu'er, I will also help you, I know that you have always wanted to leave the Red Mansion, I never expected you to be so smart and so powerful to invent the steam engine."

"Hey, don't praise me, people will be embarrassed." An Jingyu blushed shyly, lowered her eyes, and felt sweet in her heart.

"How many people still know about this?" Zhongli Huasen's eyes suddenly darkened, and he glanced at Yan Huan behind her.

"As far as Yan Huan and Wei Ming know, I didn't even say An Yue." It's not that she deliberately didn't tell An Yue, nor did she distrust him, but it was that he lived far away and it was inconvenient to tell him, and it was not a good thing for him to know too much about some things.

And Wei Ming and Yan Huan accompany her all the time, not to mention this matter, she knows when she has drunk a few sips of tea, and she can't hide it at all.

"Wei Ming, you come in." Zhongli Huasen's expression was cold, and he called Wei Ming, who had been staying at the door to let the wind in.

"Lord Wang!" Looked at by his sharp eyes, Wei Ming was a little nervous.

"The relationship between your master and servant is so good, this king is very pleased, I hope you will be loyal to her for the rest of your life and never betray, this king allows you to be her man and her shadow."

Zhongli Huasen generously arranged a man for her, and he finally understood Xiao Yi's thoughts and feelings, it was a good thing to have one more person to take care of her, and now she will emerge and be sharp, I don't know what kind of earth-shattering move she will make in the future?

Although he took the initiative to arrange a man for her to take care of her, which made him very uncomfortable, he couldn't stay by her side all the time to protect her, and Wei Ming was strong in martial arts, and he was inseparable from her shadow.

"Hey! What did you say? "As soon as she opened her mouth, she arranged a man, did she have hunger and thirst written on her face now?

Even if she used a five-fingered girl for Wei Ming to serve him half a month ago, it doesn't mean that they can be lovers, especially without their consent.

Zhongli Huasen looked at her with bulging cheeks, very cute, reminded him of the poisonous pufferfish, as soon as he left the water, his stomach was like a pump, bulging, chubby, cute to death.

He couldn't help but laugh for a moment.

"Yu'er, you are so cute......" He couldn't help pinching her bulging cheeks, fleshy, slippery, it seems that she has only eaten and slept these days, making her plump a lot.

"Humph! I'm ignoring you, go back to your house. She crossed her hands on her hips, turned her face away arrogantly, didn't look at him making fun of her smug appearance, and turned back to the bedroom.

When she is what? Scumbag?

Is she?

Still so generous to arrange men around her? Isn't he uncomfortable?
