Chapter 137: Layered
In the same morning, when Zhu Yuan was still eating breakfast, many people had already started their busy day.
For example, His Majesty the Emperor.
Today, there is the triumph of the deputy general Chang Yuchun as the foundation, which is a happy day.
In the early dynasty, he first announced that the Spring Festival couplets proposed by his baby twenty-third grandson were related, and the officials were also very face-saving and cheered one after another.
Unexpectedly, after that, another happy event came.
The Ministry of Engineering successfully fired the cement.
Because of the many mentions of his baby's twenty-third grandson, Lao Zhu's understanding of the use of cement is more comprehensive than that of Anren, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Shen Quan, the ambassador of the Cement Bureau.
It's just that, with cement, you can build a hardened road that runs through the whole country, and with the railway, as well as the many steam vehicles seen in the demonstration that day, the efficient transportation system will not only greatly strengthen the imperial court's control over the locality, but also promote the rapid extension of the Ming Dynasty's territory, far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties.
Therefore, Lao Zhu feels that the significance of cement is not much worse than penicillin.
So he gave encouragement on the spot, and after the early dynasty, he also summoned Shan Anren and Shen Quan to personally inspect the effect of cement, and was very satisfied, and asked about the firing process in detail.
Later, when he learned that his precious twenty-third grandson only planned to expand the cement workshop to 200 people, he was immediately dissatisfied.
With a wave of his hand, Shen Quanzheng, the ambassador of the Cement Bureau of the eighth grade, was directly promoted by two levels, to the seventh grade, and still controlled the Cement Bureau.
There are also workshops.
Here in Jinling, the workshop of 200 people is indeed not suitable for a larger one, because the raw materials are limited.
However, after discussing with the two courtiers, Lao Zhu decided to burn in the place of origin, such as Huangzhou, where there is both coal and iron and limestone in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, or Fengyang, where coal is produced.
As for the use......
After inquiring in detail about the characteristics of cement houses, Lao Zhu found that compared with buildings that require the use of wooden beams, cement houses are fireproof, insect-proof, moisture-proof, and rodent-proof...... Is there anything better than this to build a storehouse?
Let's just say a little.
I also found a hammer and tried the hard cement block myself, and Lao Zhu thought that if this thing is used to lay the floor, the rats and the like will definitely not be able to dig it, and it will be used to build a granary, and how much grain can be saved in a year!
As for the laboratory, museums and other important places, there is no need to say more.
In short, Lao Zhu asked Shen Quan to choose a suitable location to build a few more cement workshops in the next year, and the total number of workers should reach at least 2,000 people, instead of the 200 people who picked and squeezed.
This time, it's just the first to get to the seventh product.
If he does a good job, he will be promoted by two levels next year, to the sixth grade.
Shen Quan, who was excited, thanked him and swore to complete the task.
Lao Zhu didn't forget Shan Anren, but this cement ...... It is indeed not comparable to penicillin, which has the political significance of winning the hearts of the people, so it only rewarded Shan Anren with some wealth. There are no loose officials for the time being, and the official position is not suitable for further promotion, of course, it is also appropriate to show your face in the "Daming Monthly".
Shan Anren was not dissatisfied.
In the past, the Ministry of Industry was at the bottom of the six ministries, but this time, its status has been improved too much.
What's more, many of the things that are being done now are unprecedented, and as long as they are completed, they will be credited, so they are not in a hurry to dismiss their official duties.
Even, compared to those wealth rewards, Shan Anren also attaches more importance to the fact that he can show his face in the "Daming Monthly" this time, although it is Shen Quan who is specifically burned, and he is a Shangshu master, so he spares no effort to support it, and the credit should also have his own share.
After the matter was discussed, Shan Anren went to busy with his own affairs, and Shen Quan took some of the wealth rewards and His Majesty the Emperor's expectations out of the palace, sent his relatives to send the wealth and silk home, and went straight to Houhu Medical University.
Zhu Yuan has not forgotten yesterday's explanation, and he wants to discuss the matter of prefabricated panels with this side.
Then I met the boy Heizhang again.
……
Zhu Yuan set off after breakfast, took Nuan Niang and a sack and a few guards, and first took a boat to a secluded place on the north shore, where there were already sedan chairs and carriages waiting.
I didn't ride in a car.
Most of the trees were planted together with the construction of the island's mansions at the beginning of the year, and some lakeside homes were also relocated to completely isolate Xuanwu Lake, similar to the later state of the Yellow Book Library.
It's just that this time it's no longer the Yellow Book Library, it's basically Zhu Yuan's private territory.
Therefore, it can be seen how good Lao Zhu is to his family.
You must know that the Xuanwu Lake, which is 40 miles around, has a very rich output, whether it is fish or lotus root, not to mention that there are only a few islands in the middle of the lake with a total area of five or six hundred acres.
However, although Lao Zhu acquiesced, Zhu Yuan did not really monopolize it.
Even if he was not in Jinling before, he still instructed the people around him to coordinate here, and of course, his own servants, who should catch fish, harvest, and pay taxes...... Of course, there are also taxes.
No matter how detailed, there is no care.
Just don't waste it.
After passing through the separation zone, I soon came to the road in front of Houhu Medical University, an avenue that had obviously been repaired, but it was not a standard east-west direction, but a southeast-slope slope.
Although the free clinic has ended, in just a few days, and because the people have to buy at the end of the year, a street market has been formed, except for the lack of shops on both sides, there is no shortage of others, probably the kind of open-air market hundreds of years later.
And then there's the good of the age.
Not so easily recognizable.
Zhu Yuan was dressed in a brown coat, stepping on leather boots, and the collar was erected to cover half of his small face, although he looked more luxurious than most ordinary people, but there were no other people in the market, so he did not have the warm lady around him who was still eye-catching even if he wore a cloak and hood to attract attention.
However, although it was eye-catching, no one dared to come forward to harass them uninterestingly when they saw those fierce and fierce families with vigilant expressions following them.
On this street, there are still tiger guards patrolling.
It's just that some people are inevitably curious, what is the relationship between the woman, the young man, and another girl with the same cloak and hood next to him?
Mainly because the two women were a little behind the boy, instead of following in parallel.
Can......
Look at the clothes and gas, and don't look like a handmaid.
Zhu Yuan didn't care about these details, confirmed that he was not recognized, or pretended not to recognize if he did, so he walked around with great interest, stopping at the vegetable stall here, and taking a look at the candy man stall over there, and in a blink of an eye he was attracted by the wooden stall selling all kinds of tables, chairs and benches.
I also passed by a singing stage, stood under the stage and listened for a while, babbling, it turned out to be "A Chinese Ghost Story", so I asked for a few copper coins from the sack and sent it out.
After so stopping and stopping, I finally came to the south gate of the Medical University.
Probably also made a decision.
The commercial street should be built, but in order to avoid losing the current fireworks in the world, it cannot be built too high-end, or even out of the needs of the people.
Well.
Specifically, we need to do some more research, and we can't take it for granted.
After all, there are a bunch of universities here.
In this era, those who can read, to be honest, there are very few people at the bottom, so the consumption capacity is determined, so if it is built too low, it is equivalent to alienating this part of the consumer group.
Maybe half low and half high.
On the northwesterly side, the people near the Shogunate Mountain are lower, and those to the southeast are higher.
These......
Again.
reported his identity, Zhu Yuan entered the school gate, felt tired, sat in the sedan chair that had been following here, and called Nuan Niang and the sack in.
The sedan chair bearers are all strong, and it is no big deal if two more women come up.
When they came to the laboratory courtyard of the campus, Dai Sanchun and Shen Quan were already waiting in front of the door, and in addition, there was Cui Shen, the director of the Instrument Bureau, who had been to Mingzhou with Zhu Yuan.
Shen Quan also just arrived for a while.
When they came up, there were three people, and when they came out, there was only one Zhu Yuan.
After greeting him, Zhu Yuan first asked Dai Sanchun: "Where is Lord Sun?" ”
"In the city, discuss with the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry about the construction of the Shrine of the Doctors."
Zhu Yuan shook his head with concern: "I've been tired for three days, Master Sun is not young anymore, so I should rest at home." ”
"Because of the free clinic, Your Majesty was exempted from the early court of the Ministry of Medicine. Xia Guan also saw the adults this morning, and came here before going to the imperial city, saying that he had rested all night, and he woke up today, and he only felt better, and Xia Guan looked at it in person, and it was true," Dai Sanchun explained, while signaling to walk into the hospital: "The adults came just in time, about the penicillin, Xia Guan is trying to continue to ask for advice." ”
"Heh, you know more than me, it's time for me to ask you," Zhu Yuan turned to Cui Shen again: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but it's good lately." ”
"Okay, it's all good," Cui Shen said: "I want to thank the Lord for his support at the beginning, otherwise, Xia Guan is still just a jade craftsman." ”
"Don't be presumptuous, if you don't have real materials, I can't be promoted if I want to," Zhu Yuan said, and turned to Shen Quan again: "What is the result of the cement matter?" ”
Shen Quandao: "Your Majesty is very happy, rewarded Shangshu and Xia Guan's wealth, Xia Guan is ashamed, and he has been promoted by two levels, which is already the seventh grade." And then there's ...... That workshop, Your Majesty said, the use of cement is very large, on the Jingshi side, 200 people are acceptable, but let the lower officials make more in some other places, and this year it will reach the scale of 2,000 craftsmen. ”
Zhu Yuan said with a smile: "The ancestors must see farther and more pattern than us, let's ...... It's a small device in the end. ”
Shen Quan thought that Lao Zhu's actions would make Zhu Yuan have some ideas, but he didn't expect this kind of answer, so he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes." ”
But I thought in my heart, otherwise, why would people be Zhongshu Pingzhang.
As he spoke, he came to the courtyard, and the fan booth in the open air was still there, but it was no longer the original fan of eight people holding a pu fan, all of them were replaced by a large hand-cranked hair dryer, one for each table, two people operated, and there were other operators who kept brushing the glass plate with concentrated penicillin solution, or occasionally turned the glass plate to avoid the wind direction only one side of the hair dryer blowing the solution away, and there were also people who kept taking away the glass plate that had accumulated enough powder to scrape the operation.
Zhu Yuan stopped and looked, and several other people also stopped.
Dai Sanchun waited for a while and said, "My lord, about this evaporation step, the lower official also wants to ask, but ...... Are there any other blow drying effects that can be done more efficiently right now? ”
Zhu Yuan didn't answer for a while.
A few more steps forward, came to a square table, motioned to stop here, looked a little, and inexplicably thought of the radiator in the computer case.
Well.
Something is wrong.
The heat sink is heat dissipated, and in front of the eye, in order to promote evaporation, as mentioned earlier, the contact area can be maximized.
The problem is that the operation of the glass plate in front of you, brushing only a thin layer, is already the best way.
If you make too complex curved surfaces, or various folds and bends, you can increase the contact area, but don't think about removing the dried penicillin powder too easily.
Efficiency.
Efficiency?!
Suddenly, Zhu Yuan understood why he thought of the layers of radiators.
The key is a 'layer'.
Dai Sanchun had been paying attention to Zhu Yuan's reaction, and seeing him like this, he hurriedly asked, "Do you have an idea?" ”
Zhu Yuan nodded, walked in a little more, and motioned to the glass plate on the table: "A machine only blows one glass plate, it's too wasteful, like this...... You can make a shelf, stack a lot of glass panels, of course, there should be enough space in the middle to facilitate air circulation, and then talk about this shelf...... It is also convenient to have a glass panel. Well, the same arrangement, well, blowing ten glass panes at a time, maybe a little more troublesome to operate, but the overall efficiency is definitely much improved. ”
When Dai Sanchun heard this, he sketched it in his mind slightly, and suddenly showed a surprised and sudden expression.
Cui Shen even praised directly: "Adults are worthy of the talent." ”
This......
It's just a small idea, and it's an exaggeration, right?
However, think about it again, many things are actually like this, because human beings actually don't have such a rich imagination, plus all kinds of rules and regulations of reality, even if it is a layer of window paper, it is not so easy to pierce it.
The idea I just gave was calculated according to 10 layers of glass on a shelf, which is equivalent to directly increasing the efficiency by ten times.
That's right...... It really deserves a compliment.
Saying that, he looked around again, and the warm winter sun that was gradually rising in the morning, Zhu Yuan thought about it and said: "I still have to move indoors, it's not good to be outside like this." ”
Dai Sanchun said: "Xiaguan and Lord Shangshu have also discussed, recently determined the plan, and will build and expand the laboratory after the year, heh, it just so happened that Lord Shen fired the cement, and Xiaguan also saw the effect, and just now he was still discussing the matter of the prefabricated board proposed by the adult." With this thing, the brand new laboratory must be much better. ”
Zhu Yuan smiled and nodded: "That's for sure." ”
Dai Sanchun returned to the topic at hand, asked a few more words about the idea of the glass shelf, and tried to get more ideas from Zhu Yuan, but unfortunately, he couldn't think of more for a while, so he had to give up.
When I came to Dai Sanchun's office, I briefly looked at the ideas of several people about prefabricated panels, and Zhu Yuan did not give more new ideas, so he stayed for less than a quarter of an hour before leaving.
This time, I mainly came to see the school.
Leaving the laboratory courtyard, Zhu Yuan got back into the sedan chair and turned to the east.
After walking for a while, there is another courtyard.
After getting off the sedan chair, Zhu Yuan had already faintly heard the sound of reading.
To be precise, it's a female voice.
After all, because of the age, at present, male and female students are separated.
