Chapter 425: We Want Everything We See (Part 2)
'Woo~~Woo~~' The small train roared, pulling people back to continue eating and drinking.
It's a little awkward for adults to sit on a small train, but it's better than walking.
This time, everyone has seen each other for a long time, and when they return to their original places, there are more people discussing with each other.
They knew that His Majesty would not talk to them, and it was estimated that there were many things to ask Zhu Lichang.
Hu Weiyong began to feel uneasy, he felt that he was wronged, but he just wanted to embarrass Xiaqiu Village, and the result was ......
"Yi Chang, you have to install the hydroelectric generator for us quickly, there is a moat behind us, and Xuanwu Lake, send us the pedaling boat too."
Zhu Yuanzhang sat down and drank two sips of wine, and began to ask for things in the tube, he wanted to have a light bulb.
"Your Majesty, a lot of copper is needed for the transmission of electricity, which is insulated with paper and enamel after being drawn into wires, and insulating materials such as rosin and ash are used in power generation equipment.
But this electricity! There's a problem, if you accidentally touch it, you'll die.
When you have eaten, you can try it with a sheep, and your majesty will know when the time comes.
When there is a problem with the electric light anywhere in the palace, you must find someone from Xiaqiu Village to solve it.
At the same time, candles and oil lamps are always available, and I don't know when the bulb will be broken, or there is a problem with the place where the electricity is transmitted.
When the wires are connected, walk in the bamboo tube that has been pierced, and you can't get caught in the rain or put it in a damp place. And ......"
"It's better not to have it first, write these down, let's find someone to see them, let's just don't touch the lamp and line."
Zhu Yuanzhang had a headache when he heard this, so he simply lay flat and didn't touch it, just use that bright.
As for copper wires or something, no matter how short of copper in the Ming Dynasty, can there be a shortage of wires in the palace?
The chief nodded, since this is the case, there is nothing else, and the rest will be solved by the village.
Including blowing the light bulb, putting in the carbon filament, and then pumping out the air, sealing it, and it is ready to use.
For Xiaqiu Village, the cost of light bulbs is very low, and it is critical that every household can light the lamp at any time, and it also saves fuel and candles.
And the cost of the generator ......
It can't be counted that way, the generator is built for a purpose, and it will be used with other motors.
"Chief Zhuli, can't you pull your village's generator line to the palace?" Queen Ma felt that it would not be easy to rebuild a power generation water truck.
"The queen is like this, our village still needs to do other things, and that one waterwheel may not be enough.
There are also many places in the imperial city that need electricity, and it is just right to have a separate power generation equipment.
At the same time, it is convenient for the people of the village to practice their hands, as if they are familiar with what they have learned before.
The longer the power generation equipment and electric lights are used, the more people use them, and the more money they save.
Don't look at the use of copper, copper wires are not consumables, they can be used for a long time, and they can be melted and redrawn after they are broken.
Its practical silver can also be used to make wires, and it is better than copper, but the price is ......"
The governor did not agree with the palace and Xiaqiu Village using a power generation device, and if something went wrong, someone would blame Xiaqiu Village.
Take it out separately, say in advance that it will be bad, and if it is broken, we will send someone to repair it.
If you can use silver in order to save copper, of course, silver oxidizes faster than copper, and you need better antioxidant packaging, which is more troublesome.
"Yes, yes! It is necessary to make more useful things, and if this electric lamp is not made in Xiaqiu Village, the craftsmen don't know when they will be able to figure it out. ”
Queen Ma didn't know how difficult the steam engine technology and power generation and electricity application technology taken out from Xiaqiu Village were.
She thought that the craftsman would figure it out after all.
Zhu Wentian was eating slowly, he was the most tired person recently.
The application of steam engines and generators has taken many years in history, and countless people have taken countless detours.
He copied it directly and made it, and he didn't need to think and try it step by step.
With electricity, you can grind the dough at any time, and you don't have to run to the river to borrow the power of the water wheel and grind it into decorations.
……
It was slowly getting dark, and someone went over to pull the switch, the kind that pulled the rope, pulled it to power it on, and then pulled it to cut off the power.
In fact, the switch can be made as well, and there is no technical difficulty.
However, there is a problem with the switch that is pressed, you have to press it on the wall, and the rope is used to replace the length of the wire with a rope to save copper wire.
As long as the rope is long enough and there are a few more twists in the middle, it can be pulled from a distance of ten meters.
It is convenient when you go to bed at night, pull the rope after lying down, and pull it again when you get up at night.
The kind of switch is OK, you have to do a few switches to connect, and the middle is full of copper wires.
Everyone looked up at the light bulbs, some of them were of different colors of glass, and some were of transparent glass.
"This is good, so high the place shines, brighter than the glass lamp, if you want it to go out, just pull it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said and went over to pull the rope, and with a click, part of the lights went out, and other people by the rope hurriedly helped pull it, and it was completely black in an instant.
Zhu Yuanzhang clicked again to turn on some of the lights, and the others continued to pull.
"Don't learn from us, let's see, it's all dark all of a sudden, it's weird and scary." Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of scaring the baby.
He pulled it a few times himself, and thought it was funny, so he sat back down and ate two bites.
He doesn't plan to leave today, just stay here and feel the lights.
Xiaqiu Village has already prepared a house for them, and the things that are available in normal life in the palace are all in Xiaqiu Village, and there may not be anything in the palace in Xiaqiu Village.
For example, every household has a flushing toilet, where a high water tower is built with concrete, and water is pumped up from the river every day, and the pipes are in charge of each house.
The pipes are all terracotta, sealed with hemp and lacquer, as are the sewers, which are concentrated together in the sewage treatment plant.
Because the people in Xiaqiu Village were idle and had nothing to do, Zhu Wentian asked them to build the village.
As for how the water is pumped from the river to such a high water tower? It's too simple, Archimedes-style screw pump, turn and turn and go up.
Now that there is electricity, Zhu Wentian does not plan to use the electric pump to pump up, the head is not enough, and it is difficult to seal.
Due to the ...... at night
"Let's too, get the stones on the ground in the palace out first, we also want this flush, let's not use a bucket."
Zhu Yuanzhang fell in love with this toilet all of a sudden, and he didn't care about how to deal with the sewer and sewage.
Anyway, Xiaqiu Village is using it, so Xiaqiu Village has a way to solve it, hand it over to Xiaqiu Village, and let them direct people to work.
……
The next morning, after everyone finished eating in the village, some people went to the court, some people returned to the palace, and the people from Xiaqiu Village followed.
They have to look at the terrain, Zhu Wentian is the main force, and wherever they go to the location of the harem, the people will avoid it.
When the group returned to the village at noon, the chief asked Hanhan, "How?" ”
"The moat is in the way, the height of the Imperial City is higher than the surroundings, anyway, you have to be the last one to rush to the Imperial City.
There is no suitable place for a sewage treatment plant around, so it can only go north, and the pipe needs to pass through the moat, and the amount of work is not small.
I don't know how long it will take for Your Majesty to finish, but we will go on a northern tour with the prince in a few days. ”
Zhu Wentian didn't think there was a problem elsewhere, that is, the sewage pipe needed to cross the moat.
