Chapter 6 Xianxia World's First Thermal Power Station
The energy used in the secular world is mainly heat energy generated by the combustion of wood and black stone, and most of the lighting tools are candles, black oil lamps, torches, etc., simply put, this place is still in the open flame period. Wang Yan's idea of opening an Internet café requires electricity in addition to computers, and this problem must be solved.
Where does electricity come from, it is nothing more than hydroelectric power, thermal power, wind power and nuclear power, according to the existing conditions of Blackstone City, you can only choose thermal power stations or nuclear power plants. He rummaged through the Goldfinger database for most of the day, with 120,000 energy points for nuclear power plants and 8,000 energy points for thermal power plants. Not to mention the tall nuclear power plant, he can't even afford to exchange it for an ordinary thermal power station.
Early in the morning, Wang Yan carried a large box to the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Feng, the city lord of Blackstone City, came from the outer gate of a certain cultivation sect, and because of his lack of qualifications and talents, he could not break through the foundation building period, so he broke off the idea of cultivation early, and sought the position of Blackstone City Lord in the secular world to enjoy glory and wealth. It's not honest in dealing with people, but it's not a big mistake.,Overall, it's a relatively decent city lord.。
This is the second time Wang Yan has gone to the City Lord's Mansion, and the last time it was because the City Lord needed to solve some problems when he published a book. The guards at the door still had a little influence on him, and immediately helped him report it. When people helped, Wang Yan would not be stingy, and quietly handed over a piece of silver. There is a saying that Hades is good at seeing little ghosts, and he will not make mistakes in this regard.
City Lord Li Feng was about forty years old, sitting in the front of the hall and leisurely sipping tea, his face was ruddy, his temples were high, and his body was refining qi and cultivating seven times to make him look radiant. Hearing the report from his subordinates, Wang Yan was welcome to see him, and the last time Wang Yan published a book, he gave him several layers of income.
"Haha, what kind of wind blew you here today," Li Feng said in a very affectionate tone, it felt like a conversation between Shibo and his nephew, in fact, they were only meeting for the second time.
The official word has two mouths!
Wang Yan is also very good at doing things, and said with a smile: "Li Shibo, I came here today to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing." ”
Between the two words, the maid had already served tea.
Li Feng frowned: "Oh, what's the matter?" "Don't blindly agree before you know what, he's also a good plan.
Wang Yan didn't break it either.
I opened the large box I had brought and took out the contents of what seemed to be some scattered items.
"What is this?" Rao is Li Feng is well-informed, and he has never seen these things.
"Please wait a moment, I'll assemble him. ”
Wang Yan moved quickly, and as soon as Li Feng drank half a cup of tea, the things were assembled. It's a model of a thermal power station, but it's not just a model, it's a scaled-down version of a thermal power station to be exact, with a small light bulb attached. Put a piece of black stone into the incinerator to generate electricity. The process is intelligently controlled, and no unnecessary operations are required.
"This is the great wealth I want to give to the city lord!"
Li Feng glanced at the glowing light bulb and was not moved: "This thing is not a secular thing, right?" The cultivation world has very strict control over the secular world, and one of them is that the secular world is not allowed to use the utensils of the cultivation world.
Wang Yan shook his head: "This is indeed a worldly thing, without the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power. And it uses black stone instead of spirit stone. ”
"Oh~" Li Feng sensed it, and there was indeed no spiritual power fluctuation, "What is this?"
"Thermal power stations! ”
"Power generation, lights, lighting," Li Feng was interested. Electricity, he is no stranger, any lightning charm, thunder explosion charm can release lightning, using fire to generate electricity is the first time I have heard of it.
"City Lord, please look!" Wang Yan pointed to the bubbling boiler, "The spewing water vapor pushes the steam turbine to rotate, and the steam turbine drives the generator to generate an electric current, and then introduces it into the bulb, and the whole process does not need to be manually operated except for throwing in the black stone." After a detailed explanation, Li Feng is not a stupid person, so he naturally understands the mystery.
"Sure enough, it is worthy of being from a cultivation family, and it is a genius. Li Feng also discovered the business opportunities, and it is convenient to communicate with smart people, "Shopkeeper Wang, why did you give me this great wealth?"
As soon as Wang Yan heard the title, he knew that it was time to do business: "The thermal power station invented by the grass people needs to be driven by the blackstone mine, and the blackstone mine has always been in the hands of the imperial power, and no one except the city lord has the right to mine the blackstone. So it's better to simply send it to the city lord. ”
Li Feng put down the teacup: "It's not proper, or else, I will buy out the technology of the thermal power station at one time, and you will be responsible for helping me build this kind of power station in the future, how long is it expected to be completed?"
The old fox, killing two birds with one stone, has no division of interests if he buys out, and he also wants Wang Yan to be a free technical consultant. However, he didn't care about the power station, as for the construction of the power station, forget it, and exchange it directly.
"As long as the funds are sufficient, it can be built in half a month (in fact, it can be done in one day, and it can be exchanged directly). A large open space outside the city can be used to build this thermal power station, and the future operation only needs to add blackstone ore to the incinerator regularly. As for the households in the city, I can also organize people to build wiring and provide electric lights and other equipment. ”
Li Feng nodded: "Then how should my City Lord's Mansion collect fees?"
Wang Yan replied: "You can install an electricity meter in each household, and charge a fee once a month according to the scale displayed, and how to set the price is up to the city lord himself." As he spoke, he pulled out an electricity meter.
"Wonderful, wonderful!" Li Feng stroked his beard.
"What if the people are not willing to pay?"
"Could it be that the lord of the city has seen the benefits of electric lights and still wants to use black oil lamps?"
"Haha, too!" Li Feng suddenly felt that this was a good way to make money, "Then I will directly buy out the thermal power station, from now on you are not allowed to divulge secrets to anyone, if there is a second thermal power station, I will ask you." ”
"The grass people take the order!"
Li Feng nodded smugly and said, "Nephew Wang Xian, I don't know how much it will cost me to buy out this thermal power station technology?"
Wang Yan's original purpose was not to sell the power station, he just wanted someone to provide him with funds to exchange the power station: "The city lord has spirit stones, although I can't cultivate, but it is still beneficial to use spiritual energy to forge my body." ”
Li Feng thought about it, and selling spirit stones in the secular world was not a big deal: "In this way, I'll give you 10 low-grade spirit stones, I don't have any more." ”
Wang Yan was overjoyed, 10 spirit stones were converted into energy, but it was 1,000 points, and he immediately agreed. The two then discussed the details, and then drafted the document to be signed and pledged.
"Interesting!" Li Feng sent Wang Yan away, although he knew that Wang Yan had something to hide, but he didn't suffer a loss, "This model can be sent to the sect for the senior brother of the refining weapon to study and crack, and it can generate electricity, and it is not just used for lighting the lamp......"
The next day, Wang Yan summoned a group of migrant workers and rushed outside the city. Choosing a place closer to the black stone mine, a square open space of 1000X1000 meters was circled, and then the migrant workers were instructed to lay the foundation and tamp the sand, use green bricks to pad the bottom, dig wells to divert water, and build a large chimney..... Everything was done according to the drawings he provided, surrounded by a high protective fence.
All this is just a cover-up, and when the time is ripe, Wang Yan will directly exchange it for the thermal power station.
Liu Si was responsible for the installation of the wiring in Blackstone City, and according to the drawings provided by Wang Yan, he set up telephone poles and transformers along the road, installed electricity meters in each household, and connected wires, lights and power jacks. Street lamps have also been erected on public roads, and colorful lights have been arranged for distinctive scenes. At the same time, the city lord's mansion also issued a notice to remind the residents to pay attention to the safety of electricity and pay bills regularly......
Half a month later, late one night, Wang Yan quietly sneaked into the power station that was being cleaned up, and the power station was already on a complete scale at this time, of course, the core equipment was an empty shell. Without much hesitation, it costs 8000 energy to exchange. A thermal power station appeared silently, checked the program, connected the lines, and in 10 minutes everything was done and officially operated.
"Find an opportunity to distribute the "Thermal Power Station Construction Manual", with the wisdom of this world, you should learn it quickly, if you only rely on exchange, then it won't tire me to death" Shaking his head, Wang Yan quietly left here, everything will wait for the city lord to hand over tomorrow.
On the evening of July 20, 13045 in the Xianyuan calendar, the weather was cloudy and nothing special. City lord Li Feng and his entourage went to the command hall of the thermal power station to inspect the work, accompanied by representatives of the city lords of several nearby towns. After making a simple speech, Li Feng gave an order, and a truckload of blackstone mines was put into the incinerator. The control equipment in the command hall is very simple, just two buttons, one power transmission and one power off, which is really smart enough.
The moment Li Feng pressed the button, the entire Black Rock City suddenly lit up. From a distance, Black Rock City looked like it was draped in a crystal veil. Even Li Feng, who knew the result, was taken aback, not to mention those city lord representatives. From this moment on, the Kowloon Mainland officially entered the era of electric energy.
"This is the electric light?" muttered one.
"Didn't you go to the Crystal Palace......"
......
Li Feng smiled smugly, he knew that these people would definitely make a big splash for the city after they went back, and wouldn't the future business transactions come?
"Let's go, follow the city lord into the city and have a look," Li Feng was in high spirits, it seemed that his wealth was going to roll in in the future. Even in some large cultivation sects, there may not be such a brilliant light, let alone in the secular world.
The moment the street lights, lights, and colorful lights came on, the people in Blackstone City were first startled, and then they were jubilant, shouting: "Long live the city lord, long live the city lord!"
You must know that the secular world has developed for more than 10,000 years now, and every night, except for the candles and black oil lamps in each house, there is basically no light. Human beings have been afraid of darkness since ancient times, and now the appearance of street lamps is not only a material change, but also a change in the depths of the heart.
Seeing the scene of the people shouting and cheering, the city lord, who has always been steady, couldn't help but be excited, all the roads were illuminated by street lamps, and there was nowhere to hide any thieves and assassins in the future, and the problem of public security was well solved, and he also gained immortal prestige and honor and endless wealth.
The people didn't know that the driving force behind the electric light was Wang Yan, and they didn't know that the city lord and his behind-the-scenes deals, only regarded it as the city lord's merits. The city lord also gladly accepted, and Wang Yan also made a fortune in silence and stepped up preparations for his first Internet café.
