Li Shimin looked at Princess Jinyang's little hand, this ...... Sanmenxia to Taolin nearly 100 miles, boarding, changing clothes and eating, plus chatting on the board, but more than an hour, this ...... Some are outrageous

…… Right?

Yuan Tiangang, who had checked the data of the steam engine, had just come to the ship's board. Hearing Princess Jinyang's words, he walked three steps away from Li Shimin, crossed his hand, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the steamship can reach a speed of eighty to one hundred miles every hour." ”

Zhang Laothief proposed to combine their equipment for drilling mountains with the equipment for blowing wind, and the utilization rate of coal was greatly improved, not to mention, the calorific value provided by each quarter of an hour was also significantly improved, and the propulsion force was directly doubled. King Teng has a saying that is very right, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the more complex the structure, the more it needs the cooperation of various art specialists.

From the original steam engine to the steam engine installed on ships today, it has changed for six generations.

PS: In the 18th century, steamships could generally travel at about 15 knots, which is equivalent to about 27 kilometers per hour.

"How long does it last?" When Li Shimin heard Yuan Tiangang's words, he hugged Princess Jinyang tightly, so as not to be too excited, accidentally fall, and let his daughter be injured together.

"Back to Your Majesty, as long as the charcoal is sufficient, and the condition of the steam engine is regularly overhauled to ensure that there are no problems such as breakdowns and serious wear and tear, you can continue to run." Yuan Tiangang's face was solemn, and he replied extremely seriously.

A few of us have shrunk into inches, and we can only facilitate ourselves, and we can transport some materials, but we can't maintain them for a long time. A steamship is different from a steamer, and ordinary people can operate it after training. Think of what a spectacle and prosperity it would be two or three years later, four years at most, with steamboats coming and going all over the river!

"Your Majesty, the exploration of the coal in various places needs to be arranged as soon as possible." Yang Shidao crossed his hand and said excitedly. Even if calculated according to the distance of eighty miles per hour, Luoyang to Chang'an, at most one day, can be safely reached, no need to change horses, no need to change horses, do not need to raise horses at each post station, the manpower and material resources that can be saved here are really beyond imagination!

Wei Zheng: "......"

Who would have thought that everything would just start with kettles and heron lanterns? Certain...... A certain and King Teng scolded each other, and they were lonely!

Tang Jian's eyes flashed slightly, thinking of the flow of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, he crossed his hands and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, please send someone to source the Yellow River and the Yangtze River." ”

Cen Wenwen looked at Tang Jian a little blankly, Shuoyuan, what is the use of them, in order to help your King Teng catch more fish?

Yang Shidao also looked at Tang Jian blankly, is Tang Fox crazy?

Yuan Tiangang's eyes lit up slightly, bowed, and said, "Please ask Your Majesty to sign the order or Wei Shishu to accompany you, and the matter of road construction can be temporarily taken over by others." ”

If I remember correctly, the source of the Yellow River is in Tuyuhun, and the source of the Yangtze River seems to have passed through Tuyuhun until the territory of Tubo.

Li Shimin thought of Li Jing, Li Daozong and Hou Junji's Cixingsu River, Dabai Sea, looking at Jishi Mountain, looking at the source of the river, and looking at the building ship in front of him...... Originally, you could bring 800 guards, but now you won't have any problem with 1,000 people, and if you tear down those richly decorated rooms, save the palace maids and chamberlains, it won't be too much of a problem to bring 1,200 people.

"Yuan Gong, after returning to Chang'an, your Yunhe Mansion will revise the front and rear buildings, Zhang Gong Shuoyuan Yellow River, and Wei Shi will read Shuoyuan Yangtze River."

"Yui." Yuan Tiangang replied softly, took three steps back, and turned to leave.

The specific location of the source of the Yellow River is known, and Zhang Guo followed to help dredge the river. The source of the Yangtze River is unknown, and there may be many mineral deposits along the road, which need Wei Jue to explore and dredge the river by the way.

Li Zhi, the tool man, was a little entangled in his heart, looking at the scenery of the rapid retreat on both sides of the strait, he gritted his teeth and did not stomp his feet, crossed his hands and saluted, and said: "Aya, Chang'an paper is expensive." ”

Liu Erlang's aluminum mold rubbing is much more efficient than wood boarding, but now paper is expensive, and the result of mass rubbing is that it costs money like running water. It is necessary to transport a large amount of bamboo, and let the people of Yunhe Province find a way to improve the efficiency of paper production and reduce the price of paper as much as possible.

Li Shimin stretched out his hand and patted Li Zhi's shoulder, and smiled approvingly: "What you say for kindness is very reasonable, the more things you do, the more you need paper, the more you will be." The Shaofu is still working on a new paper scheme. After returning to Chang'an, you will live directly in Furong Garden and follow Yunhe Mansion for a while. ”

Yunhe Mansion will become more and more important, and it won't be long before it can work with the political hall to support the future of Datang.

"Yui." Li Zhi replied with a little excitement. He is more than three months older than his uncle, but he has already done a lot of things, although most of the work is done by others, he has made a lot of suggestions, and they are all particularly useful suggestions.

Princess Jinyang puffed out her cheeks slightly, Brother is also going to be busy, and I am the only one staying in the Lizheng Palace...... His eyes lit up, and he said in a low voice: "Aya, I can also go to Uncle to help and help build the sand table." ”

After setting up the sand table, I can still stay in the uncle to watch the palace, learn from Yu Fu by the way, and occasionally go to the Furong Garden to see the brother, and then stay for a few days, then I will live in the palace for ten ...... every month. Seven days.

"Go over and eat spicy hot pot tomorrow night, and you will stay there for a few days." Li Shimin said helplessly and dotingly. "But someone sent someone to pick you up and take you back to the palace, don't pretend to be pitiful and cute."

No matter what time it is, there will be people in the Tengwang Mansion who will sit in the town and guard those two words...... It doesn't seem like it's okay if you don't keep it.,For the safety of my daughter and younger brother.,Let's continue to keep it.。

…… The envoy on the boat in the back building looked at the chimney on the ship in front of him...... It should be a chimney, and the white smoke coming out of the three chimneys drifts away with the wind.

"Outside of the king, this is ...... What is it? Mattei asked, pointing to the white smoke, shocked. I found that there was no sail on the ship, and I didn't see the soldiers rocking the oars, so how did the boat push the water and move forward so quickly?

Wang Xuance looked at the people around him quite reservedly, it was useless to prick up his ears, and said softly: "Envoy Ma, we have a saying in the Tang Dynasty, don't look at incivility, don't listen to incivility, don't speak incivility, and don't move incivility." ”

Mattei: "......"

Certain...... It's okay to be idle, why is your mouth so owed? But then again, if you are a normal person, you are not curious!

How, exactly?

"Is there a big river in Gaochang, and what is the use of the horse envoy to inquire about the boat?" The short envoy of Nanzhao teased softly. "Don't you want to sail in the desert?"

A certain has already represented Wang Shangcheng, we are already Datang people, of course we have to maintain everything in Datang!

The envoy of Zhenla, who was somewhat similar to the envoy of Nanzhao, echoed and said: "That is, we came to Chang'an from the city of Yinsheng, and the waterway is all the way, and we haven't asked yet, they came on a camel and got anxious first." ”

The envoy of Nanzhao played this hand, and it was extremely disgusting! What should we do if you do this? We are not a small country like your Nanzhao...... But if the ships were to move at such a terrible speed, how long would we be able to resist if they attacked us?

The envoys of the Whisk Kingdom and the envoys of the Great Food Kingdom glanced at each other, and saw a deep fear in each other's eyes, if the Tang Dynasty Mansion ship went by sea at such a speed...... Compared with our ship, whether it is speed or offensive and defensive ability, it is like a three-year-old child facing a strong man, and the pricing power of trading with Datang in the future...... Is it just a concession?

The Great Food Envoy looked at the Gaochang envoy Ma Tai, blaming them, if they hadn't wanted to cooperate with the Turkic barbarians, maybe the Tang Dynasty would not have created such a terrifying ship...... It's not right, this kind of research will not be achieved overnight, that is, Datang has long wanted to take the sea route on a large scale?

Why are Datang people always like this...... Foresight?

The envoy of the Whirk country walked to the side of the ship and looked at the grain ship behind him, no wonder he always felt that something was strange, all the ships had no sails. They can no longer rely on the sail and speed up the boat! If there is not grain in the ship, but silk fabrics, porcelain and tea from the Tang Dynasty...... It's terrible, it's terrifying!

Panicked holding on to the railing on the bed, the envoys of the Rattan Kingdom slowed down their breathing, maybe they hadn't thought of so much, the problem they wanted to solve was the luck of Chang'an and Luoyang, otherwise they wouldn't have invited us envoys to come to see Lei Zu to help dredge Sanmenxia, let alone invite us to go upstairs to the boat.

…… What if they use the sun? The people in this land have too many schemes, and compared to them, we are ignorant little white rabbits!

The envoy of the Great Food Country walked towards the envoy of the Fushu Kingdom without a trace, and asked in a low voice, "What did you find again?" ”

"All...... All the boats," said the envoy of the Whisk Kingdom in a trembling voice as if frightened by Menghu. "All...... All the ships, all ...... All...... None of them...... There are no sails! ”

How is it possible to have a ship without sails? It's the legendary ghost ship, the mast is full of skeletons, and it also has sails...... Suddenly clenched the railing and shouted hysterically: "Why do they have no sails?" Why! ”

Wang Xuance and the others heard the shout and looked over, and saw that it was the bearded envoy of the country, he instantly rushed over, slashed at the back of his neck with a knife, and said lightly: "The speed of the boat is too fast, he is a little seasick, and he has a little hallucination, and those who have been on the boat must be able to understand this situation." ”

Looking at the envoy of the Great Food Country, who also had a big beard, he said, "The healer will come soon, and there is an envoy from Lao Yinben to help stabilize the envoy Bourdon." ”

"Wang Yuanwai, please rest assured, a certain will help him steady." Yin Ben of the Great Food Country said softly. Now it seems that Da Shi must cooperate with Fu La, and Datang is a hundred times more terrifying than Fu La!

Gao Chang Matai: "......"

It is said that people who have never been on a boat will be seasick, but Bourdain, who is not dizzy, but Bourdain, who is whisking, fainted first, and hallucinated, how can there be such an absurd statement? Looking at the people around them, how could they put on a look of complete convincing?

Hypocrisy, too hypocritical, like a lonely little white rabbit standing in a flock of foxes!

Certain...... Certain...... I want to learn from the messenger of Nanzhao! Ma Tai raised his head suddenly, pushed aside the person in front of him, grabbed Wang Xuance's arm, and said firmly: "I want to meet the Heavenly Khan!" There is a very, very important thing to say! ”

A flash of disappointment flashed in Wang Xuance's eyes......
