Chapter 50: Hot Discussion
"Well, I'll see how you're doing."
As he spoke, he came to the chemical plant with Chen Lufeng.
Zhou Xian saw that those who were assigned to the chemical plant were still very rusty with their work.
"Mr. Chen, I see that you employees are still not very skilled, chemistry is a very dangerous job, you must be careful everywhere in your work." Zhou Xian said with some concern.
"I don't know why, I know that the adults gave me the method of making sulfuric acid, but I just don't understand it to them, so I can only teach them step by step, so our progress is a little slow."
"Well, you gather everybody, and I'll give them a lecture." Zhou Xian thought for a while and said.
Chen Lufeng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly agreed: "Great, with the explanation of adults, they will definitely be able to learn quickly." ”
After that, I went to gather everyone.
After a while, Chen Lufeng summoned everyone in front of Zhou Xian.
Zhou Xian had no choice but to teach them how to make sulfuric acid and phosphorus fertilizer through the mysterious ball of light.
If you want to make a large amount of sulfuric acid, you need to use the lead chamber method.
The lead chamber method is a method of nitrification method to produce sulfuric acid, after Zhou Xian's teaching, everyone has understood the principle and process of making sulfuric acid by the lead chamber method.
The news of the successful development of the steam engine spread throughout the Monkey Mountain Village.
Everyone wants to see the steam engine, but the North End isn't for everyone.
Only those who work in the North End factory have the opportunity to see the mysterious steam engine.
Zhang Changgui, a worker in a glass factory, was sitting in the hall of a restaurant at this time, talking about something.
He was surrounded by a crowd of people, and he was only heard to say: "The steam engine is huge, and it is pitch black, and it makes a kind of "boom" sound, and it emits white smoke; Driving a large wheel to rotate rapidly, the entire steam engine seemed to come to life, our Lord Zhou is really a god, and he can actually make the iron lump come alive. ”
The people around him who didn't have the opportunity to see the steam engine were all fascinated when they heard Zhang Changgui's words.
One of them asked, "What's the use of that steam engine, you know?" ”
"I've heard people in the steam engine workshop say that this steam engine is very useful, it can be used in the factory workshop, it can be used on ships, and I heard that it can be used in horse-drawn carriages." Zhang Changgui said mysteriously.
"How do you use it on a boat? And how can it be used in a carriage? The crowd was amazed.
Zhang Changgui shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, the people in the steam engine workshop are producing more steam engines, and we will know when the time comes." ”
Everyone asked some questions of interest, and seeing that Zhang Changgui couldn't answer, everyone sighed, and left the restaurant one after another with a yearning for the steam engine in their hearts.
When Zhang Changgui was also about to leave, four people dressed as adults came to Zhang Changgui.
"Can this brother tell us about the steam engine you saw again? We are interested. A rich boy said to Zhang Changgui with a folding fan in his hand.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Changgui glanced at the four rich sons and became vigilant.
"We are merchants who came to Houshan Village from the capital to buy goods, and we just heard Brother Ren talking about the steam engine, and I was curious, so I wanted to hear it." After speaking, Jiang Shaobai said to the guy in the teahouse: "Guy, bring the best wine and food here." ”
"Okay, a table of good food and wine, come right away!"
Zhang Changgui felt that this steam engine was not a secret matter, and he was very generous to look at these four people.
So he said, "I told you that you can, but don't go out and spread the word everywhere, so that too many outsiders know that it's not good." ”
"No, you can rest assured, we promise that we will never spread it around." Jiang Shaobai closed the folding fan and patted it on his hand.
Hearing Jiang Shaobai's assurance, Zhang Caigui told them again about the steam engine he saw.
After all Zhang Caigui had finished speaking, he was also full of wine and food.
After Zhang Caigui saw that there was no problem with the four of them, he told the four of them and walked out of the restaurant and went home.
At this time, Jiang Shaobai said: "I didn't expect that there was really a steam engine, I heard people talk about steam engines when I first came, but I didn't expect that the steam engine was successfully developed in just two days, I really want to see this steam engine." ”
"I don't think that steam engine is that powerful, it's just their exaggeration, how can there be anything that can be moved without human turning." Han Jin said with some disbelief.
"I think this should be true, you see that this Monkey Mountain Village is all new things that we have never seen before, is it possible that there is such a thing that can move on its own without being turned around." Yang Chang guessed.
"I want to know, isn't it clear that we should go to Master Zhou and ask him to take us to have a look?" Huang Gang took a sip of wine and said bluntly.
"That's right, we've been here for a few days, and we've visited the factory to determine their strength, and we're going to discuss the matter of buying and selling goods with Lord Zhou, and when the time comes, I'm sure he won't refuse." Jiang Shaobai patted the table with a folding fan and said.
After the four of them reached an agreement, they didn't stay long, and rushed to Zhou Xian's mansion after settling the account.
Zhou Xian was taking a nap in his room, and Xiaoqing came to wake him up, saying that there were four people looking for him outside.
"Let them wait for me in the main hall, and I'll be there shortly." Zhou Xian stretched his waist, rubbed his eyes and said.
Xiaoqing said yes and walked outside the mansion.
When Zhou Xian came to the main hall, Han Jin and the four of them were already sitting in the main hall drinking tea.
Seeing Zhou Xian walk in, the four of them got up and bowed to Zhou Xian.
Zhou Xian also bowed back to the four of them, and said first: "The four of them are still used to living in my Monkey Mountain Village. ”
"The habit of living, except that there are fewer shops in this Monkey Mountain Village, there is not much difference from the capital, and there are some things that the capital does not have." Han Jin said first.
"Our Monkey Mountain Village has just started construction, and there are still many things that have not been done, so we will invite four more to come to Monkey Mountain Village when it is all completed." Zhou Xian said with a smile.
"We must come then, we are here today, for our purchase, we have visited the factory in the past few days, these factories are indeed as Zhou said, the production capacity is fully enough to meet the needs of several of us, we will order a batch of goods from Zhou Daren this time." Han Jin said straight to the point.
"Business matters, you can just talk to my housekeeper Zhou Fugui, I don't care about these business matters."
Han Jin and the four looked at Zhou Xian with some surprise, they didn't expect that this Lord Zhou didn't even ask for such a big deal, and handed it all over to his subordinates.
Han Jin saw whether Zhou Xian really didn't care about business, so he had no choice but to speak: "Since Lord Zhou doesn't care about business matters, we have a reluctant request and hope that Lord Zhou can agree." ”
Zhou Xian was a little surprised by what they asked for themselves, "I don't know what it is, I won't shirk if I can agree." ”
"It's not a big deal, the four of us heard that Monkey Mountain Village has successfully developed something called a steam engine, I heard that it is very magical, and the four of us want to go and see it."
"It turns out that this is the case, no problem, I'll arrange for someone to take you to see it." Zhou Xian said indifferently.
The four of Han Jin were ecstatic when they heard this, and they thanked each other.
Zhou Xian called in, and Xiaoqing asked her to take Han Jin and the four of them to see the steam engine.
Han Jin thanked Zhou Xian and followed Xiaoqing to the arsenal.
When they arrived at the steam engine workshop and saw that the steam engine was steaming and the wheel was spinning rapidly, the shock in the hearts of the four of them could not be calmed for a long time.
Watching this behemoth move rapidly and make a "bang" sound, this kind of shock is incomparable to hearsay outside.
Once again, they were struck by the events of Monkey Mountain, where they watched for an hour before reluctantly leaving the steam engine workshop.
After Zhou Xian sent Han Jin and the four of them away, he asked Zhang Dabiao to go to the military camp to find Xu Shouyi.
