Chapter 296: The Industrial Age

Xia Wuhe smiled and said, "Of course there is, I am a teacher of the divine doctor Bian Que." But the gentleman doesn't need to use a woman's prescription? ”

Qin An said excitedly: "Of course I don't use it, but there are many women who need it, and there are many now."

There are many problems for both men and women.

Lao Xia, do you know, if you take out these two prescriptions, you will definitely make a lot of money, and parents who want children all over the world will thank you. ”

"But it's hard to find the herbs in this pharmacy." Xia Wuhe said.

"If it's hard to find, plant it yourself." Qin An said.

"Grow your own herbs?" When Xia Wuhe heard this, he was stunned for a moment, "Can you win?" Isn't this herb innate? Can people still plant? ”

Qin An said with a smile: "Of course you can, we in Huaxia are carved into our bones for planting, so let alone planting medicinal herbs in the soil, even if it is in the water, we can plant it."

However, it is generally not a medicinal herb, but a vegetable that is grown. ”

"You can grow vegetables in the water?" Ying Zheng was suddenly not calm.

Qin An bowed his head and said: "That's right, but it's not ordinary water, and I won't either, but I've seen it with my own eyes." ”

"How powerful the outside world is, it shows how backward our village is." Ying Zheng sighed.

"Father-in-law, don't be like this, these things can be bought with money." Qin An said, "As long as my father-in-law is willing to spend money, I will definitely help my father-in-law buy a set of equipment so that the village can grow vegetables without water." ”

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "This matter is not in a hurry, you just said that you planted medicinal herbs." Are you sure you can grow medicinal herbs? ”

"Absolutely." Qin An said, "Now what ginseng, He Shou Wu, Ganoderma lucidum and other precious medicinal materials have begun to be planted. ”

"Sir, I know Ganoderma lucidum He Shou Wu, but I don't know what kind of medicinal herb this ginseng is?" Xia Wuhe asked.

"Ginseng is a precious medicinal material, and I heard that a thousand-year-old ginseng can hang the life of a person who is about to die, so that he can't die for a while." Qin An said, "Back then, Cixi cut off Concubine Li's hands and feet and put them in the wine jar, and then hung his life with thousand-year-old ginseng. ”

"Chop off your hands and feet and put them in the jar. God, how can there be such torture in this world? Xia Wuhe said.

"It is said that the laws of Great Qin are cruel, but I didn't expect the laws of other dynasties to be as cruel." Ying Zheng said.

Qin An shook his head and said, "This is not a law, but a criminal law. Generally speaking, it is very difficult for ordinary people to be subject to such criminal law.

And the punishment of people is basically to vent personal anger. Liu Bang's wife Lu Pheasant turned Liu Bang's favorite concubine Mrs. Qi into a human concubine after Liu Bang's death, and Lu Pheasant was even more crazy to let his son go to see Renbi's Mrs. Qi, which caused Emperor Han Hui to fall seriously ill and die of illness the next year. ”

"I didn't expect Lu Pheasant to be so ruthless, I'm afraid that as soon as she married Liu Bang, she had already discovered that Liu Bang was extraordinary.

If Lu Pheasant is a man, I am afraid that it will be Lu Pheasant who will destroy Qin instead of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang. ”

"Maybe." Qin An said, "But it's also possible that she will die quickly, unless Lu Pheasant is very forbearing." ”

"Lu Pheasant can deal with Mrs. Qi after Liu Bang's death, which is enough to show that Lu Pheasant is an extremely forbearant person.

And she can see the difference between Liu Bang and put her whole life on Liu Bang, which is enough to prove that this woman has the ability to know people.

Liu Bang is just a person who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, if there is no Lu Pheasant, I'm afraid he will not be able to achieve great things. ”

Qin An bowed his head and said: "What my father-in-law said is very reasonable, if Liu Bang does not have Lu Pheasant, I am afraid he may not be able to win the world."

By the way, father-in-law, in addition to letting me have a child early, there should be something to ask me. ”

"That's right." Ying Zheng said, "Let me ask you, what is the industrial age and what is the age of navigation?" ”33

"Father-in-law, you were going to ask about this." Qin An said.

Ying Zheng looked at Qin An's reaction, as if he had asked the wrong question, and said, "Otherwise, what do you think I will ask?" ”

Qin An immediately said: "Aren't I and Yan Yan going to get married?" My father-in-law should know about me, such as my family, my hobbies, etc. ”

Ying Zheng looked dazed, do you need to ask? After you arrived in Daqin, you cut off contact with before, and all these questions were in vain.

Immediately, Ying Zheng said with a smile: "Yan Yan is married to you, not to your family, what does it matter." ”

"What my father-in-law said is very true, please rest assured that my father-in-law will definitely treat them well." Qin An said.

Ying Zheng said: "I believe in you, otherwise I will never let Yan Yan marry you." Well, without further ado, what is the industrial age and what is the age of sailing. ”

"The industrial age refers to the development and utilization of energy resources. It is manifested in the founding of modern schools and the rise of capitalist development and heavy industry, and the rise of chemical science.

Beginning in the 60s of the 18th century, a series of important inventions appeared in the new industry of Britain, the cotton textile industry, machine production gradually replaced manual labor, and later expanded to other industries, this major change in industry, science, technology and other aspects is called the Industrial Revolution. The invention and application of a new power machine, the steam engine, brought mankind into the age of steam.

Therefore, the industrial age can also be called the age of steam. Qin An's words were completely read from the book, and he said the contents of the book again.

Ying Zheng keenly found a few key words from Qin An's words: mechanical production replaced manual labor, and the steam engine.

"What is mechanical production, what is a steam engine." Ying Zheng asked.

"Mechanical production, like the water-powered loom I invented, is a type of mechanical production, and as for the steam engine, it is something that uses the action of steam to make it work.

It's very simple, because I'm studying this field, and I've done steam engines myself. As long as I have the materials, I can make them.

The advent of the steam engine has released the labor force, dealt a great blow to the handicraft industry, and many artificial industries have gone bankrupt.

In the same way, many new factories have appeared, and the productivity of these factories is dozens or even hundreds of times faster than that of handicraft workshops.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to produce things with machines, whether it is size, pattern, color, and quality.

As a result, new industries have emerged, such as technicians, maintenance workers, inventors, scientists, and so on.

The advent of the steam engine made a big leap forward for mankind, and in addition to commerce, agriculture and transportation also developed rapidly. ”

"What do you mean?" Ying Zheng asked, "Tell me, what has happened to the agriculture and transportation industries?" ”

Qin An said: "With the steam engine, people invented steam trains, which can reach speeds of 30 to 40 kilometers per hour.

According to the village's calculation, the speed of half an hour is 80 miles. ”

Some people died, but not completely......
