Chapter 201: The Controversy of the Sons (II)

Choosing the son of the world is not to buy fruits, not who can sell well, of course, Hongli, carry forward these two brothers are dignified and cute, according to Yinzuo's own words: Our seed is naturally not bad. Choosing a son is not only about reading well, but also about the personality and mind and comprehension ability of these two little guys, which cannot be seen by taking homework. Mind, comprehension and other things that cannot be touched and seen, can only be seen in the subtleties, and this is also the main purpose of Yinzuo taking advantage of this leisure time to take the two little guys together. In order to eliminate interference, Yinzuo didn't even bring the two major strategists with him on this trip, but just asked Qingsong to lead more than 100 captains of the palace to accompany him.

Yinzuo is strict with these two little guys on weekdays, rarely let them go out to the wild, homework is very tight every day, fortunately, these two little guys are smart, although tired but can also deal with it, the books are read well, and the personalities are quite similar, they are all the kind of little adults like old adults, especially Hongli, because he is the eldest son, he is a little older, and he is more stable, and he occasionally plays a little temper, but that is all played behind Yinzuo's back, in front of Yinzuo, these two little guys are very well-behaved, but it depends on the heart, Yinzuo's trip was serious, but he was very gentle to the two little guys, and he didn't urge them to do their homework along the way, and let them play on the boat.

The ship is a big ship under Yinzuo, a new ship that has just left the factory from Shanghai Jiangnan Shipyard, but the sailors are all veterans, the captain is Qiao Shan, this person is the old captain who knows the most about navigation under Yinzuo, originally the earliest fleet commander, but now it has been transferred ashore by Yinzuo - last year Yinzuo set up a navigation school that is not too large, Qiao Shan is the principal of this aviation school, and this time he made a special trip to greet Yinzuo.

The sea in May is not yet stormy season, and the sea is calm, and with the experienced sailors and clever captains, the journey is naturally very smooth. Although Hongli and Hongyang have also participated in autumn hunting with Yinzuo several times, they have been out of the distance, but the sea is the first time they have seen it. The boat traveled for a few days, and the scene of the vast sea and sky was really nothing to see, and the little brothers had seen enough, they both quieted down, and they no longer ran to the deck when they had nothing to do, and they all began to work honestly.

Hey, yes, I know how to be self-disciplined, it's interesting. Yinzuo was very satisfied with the hard work of these two little guys, and deliberately did not control it in front of his head, just to see if these two little guys would get carried away, which is also part of the assessment, this time the two little guys are a draw.

But since it's an assessment, naturally there is more than one level, no, Yinzuo began to tell the story to the two little guys.

"Once upon a time, there was a country called Void, rich and powerful, with a vast territory and a large population, and the surrounding small countries were subservient to it, and the people of the Void Country thought that their country was invincible in the world, and did not want to forge ahead, but always lay on the foundation created by their ancestors and enjoyed the glory and wealth. The days passed year by year, one day, there were two small countries called Britain and France, because of small things offended the virtual, for fear that the virtual country would send troops to recruit themselves, so they simply attacked first, launched an attack, the war began, Britain and France suddenly found that the virtual country has long been a foreign power, overjoyed, just beat the virtual country to the ground, wantonly robbed a pass away. With the example of Britain and France, all the small countries around have followed suit, and have marched into the virtual country, since then the virtual country has been in a slump, the people's livelihood is poor, and there is no longer the former scenery, not only that, the people of the virtual country have since become the object of contempt of other countries, called the 'sick man', and even more, there is a small country called 'Wa' actually intends to destroy the virtual country, and the people of the virtual country become their own slaves, this small country has wantonly killed in the virtual country, committed heinous crimes, and its atrocities are outrageous. Yinzuo recounted the suffering of the Chinese land in the original time and space, and although his tone was calm, his heart hurt terribly.

Although Hongli and Hongyang didn't know why Yinzuo told them a story, the little brothers were both clever people, and they faintly noticed that there should be something in this story, so they listened attentively, and their two little faces showed a thoughtful look. Yinzuo glanced at the little brothers, and said slowly: "Ama has a question that wants to test you, if the Void Kingdom is still very strong, and you are the king of the Void Country, and you know the future of the Void Kingdom in advance, what will you do?" ”

Hongli thought for a while and said first: "Amma, if the child is the king of the void country, the child will send troops to destroy those small countries first, so as to avoid future troubles." Yinzuo smiled and didn't make any comments, and then looked at Hongyang, who was thinking hard with his head down. Hongyang thought for a long time before raising his head, his eyes flashed with resolute light, and he said loudly: "Amma, the child thinks that it is good to destroy the country of people, but it is not appropriate to use the power of a country to make enemies on all sides. ”

Well, it's kind of interesting, and the words of promotion are obviously better than Hongli, but having said that, whether or not you can do it is another matter. Hongli, this kid has a big heart since he was a child, and he wants everything when he catches Zhou, but he doesn't know what can happen to destroy countless countries, at most he is just Meng Yuan, he is proud for a while, and finally ends up with nothing, but it is commendable to have this ambition, and then look at it, but he is not in a hurry to make a conclusion. Yinzuo's mind moved quickly, but he didn't say anything, just lightly asked the second son to go back and continue studying.

On the second day of June in the forty-first year of Kangxi, the ship traveled for half a month, all the way without incident, Yinzuo and his party had arrived at the Shanghai wharf, and Guo Xiu, the governor of Liangjiang, led hundreds of local officials to greet him at the wharf, proclaiming the holy decree, and greeting was the proper meaning of the question, but there was no need to say more. Yinzuo's trip was ostensibly to inspect the progress of the construction of the warship, but in fact he came for the steam engine, so he didn't want the magistrates to accompany him more, so he smiled and said to the magistrates: "This king is only here to inspect the Jiangnan Shipyard this time, so you don't need to accompany you when you are busy with political affairs, so you should all go back to your office." ”

A cadre of local officials originally expected to take the opportunity to pat Yinzuo, the popular prince of Elder Brother, on the ass, but at this time, they saw that Yinzuo had issued an eviction order but had no choice but to disperse, only Guo Xiu, the governor of Liangjiang, Qian Yu, the new governor of Jiangsu, Cheng Tianming, and several other local officials accompanied Yinzuo to inspect the Jiangnan shipyard. Several years have passed, the Jiangnan shipyard at this time has long been not the scale of Yinzuo back then, dozens of docks, wharves are equipped one by one, the shipyard workers alone are in their early 20,000s, the huge shipyard is already a small town, and Shanghai was originally just a small fishing village at this time has set up a county, the merchant ships on the wharf are endless, and the whole Shanghai has begun to take shape the scale of the Oriental Pearl in later generations.

Although the two little brothers know that Jiangnan Shipyard is their own industry, they have heard those guards talk about Jiangnan Shipyard on weekdays, but the first time they saw a shipyard of such a scale with their own eyes, they were still very curious. Yinzuo had already seen the curious and excited look of the little brother, but he didn't say much, and smiled and asked Liu Hecheng, who came to greet him, to lead the big guy directly to the steam engine laboratory.

"Little Wang Yan has seen the prince." Wang Yan, the person in charge of the steam engine laboratory, saw Yinzuo for the first time, and he didn't dare to slack off, leading dozens of people in the entire laboratory to kneel on the ground and pay respects.

"Let's all get up, Wang Yan, how about you demonstrate the machine for this king?" Yinzuo said with a smile.

"Yes." Wang Yan kowtowed respectfully, got up, took the lead into the laboratory, and came to a one-foot square iron machine and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, this steam engine is a single-expansion piston type, composed of cylinder, base, piston, crank connecting rod mechanism, slide valve steam distribution mechanism, speed regulating mechanism and flywheel, etc., with coal as fuel, but it is just running with a loud sound and black smoke, Lord Wang, you see ......."

"Don't worry about this king, just turn it on." Yinzuo said with a smile.

Wang Yan bowed down and answered the sound, commanded everyone to add water and coal, ignited and started the operation of the steam engine, and for a while the smoke and dust rose loudly, and the black smoke was billowing loudly. The accompanying officials frowned, but Yinzuo didn't care at all about the operation of the crank link, estimated the speed - 45 rpm, and calculated in his heart, and found that this machine can already be put into use, and it already has practical value in mining, textile, shipbuilding and other projects that need power, but if it is intended to be used in the manufacture of warships, the power is still too small. Yinzuo smiled and motioned to Wang Yan to stop the operation of the steam engine, and the group walked out of the laboratory with black smoke.

Everyone was only in the laboratory for a few breaths, but they were already a little embarrassed, and they were all disgraced, but Yinzuo didn't care, carefully recalled the principle of the steam engine he knew, and said to Wang Yan with a smile: "This king is very satisfied with this machine, if you can expand the cylinder a little more, increase the number of a few, the effect will be better." ”

Wang Yan hurriedly knelt down and said: "Lord Wang, the little one has also made efforts in this area, but he doesn't have a clue for a while, please give the prince more time, the little one will definitely find a way." ”

"Well, if you can succeed, this king will reward you and protect your future." Yinzuo praised Wang Yan with a smile, and then led everyone to the post station outside the shipyard - the dirty body has to be refreshed, right?

"You've all seen that steam engine today, and you're all thinking about what you can do with it?" After freshening up, Yinzuo calmly asked Hongli and Hongyang who were standing in front of him. Although the little brothers said that they read their homework well, after all, they are both children, how can they have any knowledge, Yinzuo's question suddenly stumped the little brothers, and they each buried their heads in hard thought.

Yinzuo didn't know that this question was too difficult for the two little guys, but Yinzuo didn't expect the two to be completely right, just wanted to see the imagination of the two, at this time, seeing the little brothers with a thoughtful look, but they were not in a hurry, drinking tea gracefully, waiting to see who spoke first, this question was Yinzuo's last exam question, and the test was imagination.

"Amma, the child wants this machine to turn very fast, and install a reel rope, which can also be used to draw water from the well, and it can also be used to open and close the city gate gate and ship lock." Hongli took a boat from Beijing to Tianjin Wei and passed through the locks along the way, and at this time he also remembered the purpose of the steam engine. Although this answer is not complete, it can be said that his age and experience are already very remarkable, Yinzuo is still very satisfied in his heart, and he smiled and didn't say anything.

Yang Yang bit his lip and thought about it, and said uncertainly: "Amma, the child thinks that if this machine is smaller, it can be used as a car on a few wheels, and then there is, well, if it is used on a boat, it may be possible." The child is just thinking about it, not knowing if it is feasible. ”

Eh, this little thing can see the function of a steam engine? Yinzuo froze when he heard Hongyang's words, carefully looked at Xiao Hongyang, who was a little cramped and uneasy, and paused for a long time before saying with a smile: "Oh, tell me the reason." How do you think this machine can be used on a ship? ”

"Amma, the child is just thinking about it, the child thinks that since Amma put this machine in the shipyard, it should be intended to be used on the ship, but the child just guessed, I really don't know how to use it, please forgive Amma." Carry forward replied with some embarrassment.

Guess? Hey, this little guy really has a heart, it's not easy to guess its purpose from the location of the laboratory, hehe, four years old, damn, Lao Tzu was still playing with mud when he was four years old. Yinzuo smiled and didn't say anything, let the little brothers go to rest separately, but they pondered in the room: Hongli is already talented and intelligent, but the promotion is better, this battle between the sons of the world is undoubtedly carried forward to win, but how to arrange Hongli? This son has a big heart, and if he can't solve it properly, he is afraid that there will be endless troubles, alas, this matter is really nerve-wracking.

Yinzuo walked around the room a little angrily, thinking repeatedly about how to deal with this matter, and when he was worried, Qingsong strode in and said, "Lord Wang, there is an urgent letter." ”
