The old man didn't know where the speed came from, so he swooped into the car, found a place to sit down, and finally regained some clarity, and when he looked up, it was His Majesty's carriage, and he sighed in his heart and hurriedly saluted.

Ying Zheng didn't care, but his face was expressionless, and suddenly, there was a loud bang, Ji Jiji, bang, clearly visible, a puff of smoke came from the steam engine in front of him, followed by steam rising into the sky.

Doodle!

The carriage shook suddenly, and the old man couldn't sit steadily, so he stumbled, and the three doctors next to him hurriedly supported him.

At the same time, the faces of the three doctors also changed, and the carriage moved, not as if it could not be started, but slowly, but so that everyone knew that it moved.

"This, this" The people outside saw this scene, stunned, and had a kind of ghost feeling.

Dozens of people together, this carriage can really move, and there is no hindrance.

Quack!

With a long roar, the steam engine continued to rumble, and its speed increased, crushing the stone pavement, leaving a deep mark under the friction of the wheels.

Seeing that such a huge thing moved, like an iron ship entering the sea, setting off huge waves, the guards next to him were stunned, and they forgot that they should evacuate the crowd at this moment and clear a way for the giant thing.

"Quick, quick, let everyone get out of the way, don't alarm Your Majesty."

Finally, the leader of the guards reacted, urging the guards to expel the crowd that surrounded the water.

The speed of this thing became more and more rapid, and under the strong drink of the guards, the crowd also realized the danger and withdrew from the avenue one after another, and suddenly, the huge thing dragged a long black and white breath, and drove towards the front like Mount Tai.

After the giant thing disappeared, people did not leave for a long time, and the heart fluctuated.

"Dozens of people! It was pulled, is this still a carriage? "There are Confucian scholars who say.

Although most of the people in the crowd were Confucianists, there were also Legalists, who had long been unaccustomed to the aggressive attitude of Confucianism just now.

"Of course it's not a carriage, didn't you listen to what the kid said before? This is technology, only technology can carry dozens of people, but some people are ridiculous to the extreme, and even laugh at technology as an empty shell. ”

"I think what some people learn is an empty shell."

"The way to turn the ball is to sit quietly and realize? It's ridiculous, it turns out that only with your hands can you realize such a huge thing that can run. ”

So, some people remembered the rumor that Li Zhao refuted the words of the three doctors, and their hearts moved slightly.

Confucianism and Taoism were realized from the steam ball, and the Mohists realized the steam engine, whether Confucianism and Taoism were of great use, others did not know, but this steam engine was definitely of great use.

Horse-drawn carriages are expensive and ordinary people can't afford to ride, but unlike the steam engine, which can carry dozens of people at a time, if they pay a small amount of money, they can have a car, won't it change the way they travel and reach farther places? It can also allow ordinary people and nobles to enjoy the feeling of walking against the wind.

It's a revolution.

I have to say that people with such ideas are very avant-garde, and they know the whole picture by looking at one place.

"Such an innovative thing actually came from Li Zhao, no, under the guidance of General Li, looking at the Chang'an Township Science and Technology Hall, it is not an empty shell."

At this point, the man's voice stopped abruptly because someone next to him pulled him.

He covered his mouth with great amusement, and followed the man away.

When he came to no man's land, the man asked, "Brother Cao, why did you stop me?" ”

The person on the opposite side is Cao Shen, although Cao Shen has a fame, but he was only assigned a petty official, and he could not be included in the list of court officials, such a grand event, he was naturally mixed in the crowd to see the excitement, when he saw such an amazing scene, his heart was shocked.

Especially when I heard that this thing was Li Zhao, no, his eldest brother's teacher guided it, I was very emotional.

originally thought that the eldest brother was insulted by Li Zhao was the bad luck of the eldest brother, but at this moment, it seems that it is not at all, the eldest brother met a good teacher, not only wrote the second book of Kuangshi to let the eldest brother win the first place in the imperial examination, but also realized such a huge thing, it is a strange person.

Such a strange person, if he can worship his disciples, he will have a bright future, but it is a pity that he does not have such a good fate.

Then he saw his old friend Zhuo talking about the Science and Technology Hall, so he immediately stopped him.

"Brother Zhuo, do you know that Your Majesty is very happy today?"

Zhuo didn't know what he meant.

Your Majesty is happy today This is a well-known thing, and everyone present knows it, but does this have anything to do with talking about the Science and Technology Hall?

Zhuo nodded, but tilted his head.

"If you know, why are you so stupid to talk about the Science and Technology Hall?"

"What do you mean by that?" Zhuo slightly discolored.

Cao Shen knocked on his head, "What are my children studying for?" ”

Zhuo replied without thinking: "Naturally, it is to gain fame and be appreciated by His Majesty." ”

Cao Shen glanced left and right, and saw that no one was beside him, so he quietly came to his ear, "Figure out the Sacred Heart, what Your Majesty enjoys, do you understand?" ”

Zhuo was slightly shocked and smacked his tongue: "What does Brother Cao mean is that Your Majesty attaches great importance to the steam engine, and the steam engine is technology, so I should worship under General Li?" ”

Cao Shen smiled, he meant exactly that.

This is how the eldest brother Xiao He has today's achievements, he is far behind, if he didn't have an official position, he would not hesitate to join Li Zhao's disciples.

"As the so-called many people are cheap, while everyone has not yet reacted to enter the Chang'an Township Science and Technology Hall, if you are fortunate enough to serve the steam engine, it is the day you come out, compared to the road of the imperial examination, this road is much easier."

He still hasn't said a word, that is, even if he gets into the imperial examination, he may not be appreciated, and he may live like him, not knowing what the future is.

This is not his nonsense, before the imperial examination appeared, most of the people appointed by the imperial court were recommended, such as those who have no power and some way, they can worship the officials as teachers, and after completing their studies, they can be recommended as officials, officials and officials, and naturally officials are inferior.

Although he is an official, he is called by others like an official, and he is not at all like a brother who has reached the official position.

That's the difference between being appreciated and not being appreciated.

General Li is the favored person of His Majesty, and the eldest brother is General Li's favorite disciple, so that the eldest brother will be appreciated and reused, and his future future is not immeasurable, but he is unknown.

But if you don't go through the imperial examination and worship under General Li, maybe you have a higher chance of being appreciated by Your Majesty.

What's more, His Majesty loves science and technology so much, and the Science and Technology Hall was founded by General Li, isn't this a clear future? If he didn't have an official position, I'm afraid he would have already acted.

"Brother Cao's words are wonderful, the right talent is really stupid, I almost broke through such an important door, fortunately my brother reminded me, otherwise Zhuo will miss the great opportunity."

Cao Shen gave up his hand with some envy.

"Brother, brother" Gradually, Zhuo's tone became cordial, "I will immediately go to Chang'an Township, worship in the Science and Technology Hall, if you can be appreciated by Your Majesty one day, I will thank Brother again." ”

Zhuo bowed his hand, and soon hurried away, Cao Shen looked at the back, and his envy was even stronger.

If he had been under General Li like a big brother, maybe he wouldn't have a feeling of being at the mercy of others today, but unfortunately, it was too late.
