Chapter 601: Bell Tower Drawings

The Zhang family was under Ren 8,000, and everyone in their hearts had the intention of learning something from Ren 8,000 hands.

After all, Ren Baqian has proved that in many techniques, he can completely crush the Zhang family, and those things of the Zhang family are nothing in his eyes.

Although the Zhang family had such thoughts, a drawing handed over to them by Ren Baqian still startled them, and they couldn't think about whether it was good or bad to tie the lives of thousands of people of the Zhang family to Ren Baqian.

"This is a drawing of the clock tower, on which the three hands of different lengths on the clock dial are divided into hour, minute, and second hands.

This kind of clock dial divides the day into twelve hours, each hour divided into two and a half hours, and the minute hand goes one and a half times, and the hour hand turns one and a half hours, and two revolutions are one hour. When the second hand turns in one turn, the minute hand moves by one small section. ”

"It seems to have the same effect as the Japanese rules. More than a dozen people from the Zhang family gathered in a circle, looking at the drawings in the middle and guessing.

This world's timekeeping is mainly based on the day gauge, which is a device that uses the shadow of the sun to determine the time, but the day gauge is affected by day and night and cloudy weather, and is affected by seasonal changes, so the accuracy is not high.

"Completely mechanically driven, it is much more accurate than the daily gauge, and the error is less than five minutes per day, which can theoretically reach the point where the error is smaller. Ren Baqian sat in the school's office, leaning his feet on the table and said lightly.

"The most important thing is that this kind of clock tower is not restricted, and it can be seen day and night. And it's simple and straightforward, so it couldn't be better for timekeeping. "Ren 8000.

"If this is the case, it is much more convenient than the corona, but the structure is also a hundred times more complicated. ”

"How is it done here?"

"What is this institution for? There is a lock here?" everyone studied the drawings and soon couldn't take care of the eight thousand, and whispered a lot of discussions.

As the name suggests, it is a escapement, and it needs to be made to see if it is a specific escapement. ”

"Haven't heard of it! What's next?"

Most of the Zhang family members who came this time were craftsmen, and they were very enthusiastic about this new thing.

"This is the most important structure of the bell tower, and the drawings are all available, so if you don't understand it, you can use the real thing to push it back, it shouldn't be difficult. I hope you can study it as soon as possible, this bell tower is more than 20 zhang high, and it will become a landmark building in Lancheng, everyone will see this clock tower at first sight when they come to Lancheng, and the name of your Zhang family will be known and remembered by everyone. ”

Hearing Ren Baqian's words, they radiated even more enthusiasm. Few people can resist the temptation to go down in history. ”

"And you're going to study it, shrink it down, down to the dial the size of a human head, or even smaller. Ren Baqian continued.

"We tried our best. Zhang Jun is holding his fist against Ren Baqian.

"I always thought that your Zhang family had the best craftsmen......"

"As long as someone can make it, we will definitely be able to do it!" Zhang Zishan immediately said decisively.

"I like your confidence. Lack of people and things told me, I just want to see the physical objects you bring out as soon as possible. Ren Baqian said with a smile. Zhang Zishan's words made him like the Zhang family a little.

"Lord Ren, please find us a house, it should be quieter, hundreds of people are crowded in that courtyard, and they can't even sleep well. Zhang Zishan immediately said.

"I was negligent in this matter, I will have someone arrange it for you in a while, just be there in Jing Street, adjacent to the Jing people, you can live more comfortably." Ren Baqian thought for a while.

"I'm tired. "For living in Jingjie, the Zhang family has no objection, after all, they are surrounded by Jing people who look similar, and they look much better than the ancient people who are surrounded by people with big shoulders and round waists and fierce faces, and they are not easy to be troubled by.

Waiting for the Zhang family to leave, Ren Baqian returned to the palace to see the empress, and as soon as she opened her mouth to salute when she entered the door, the empress stretched out her fingers and flicked it, and a grape-sized fruit turned into a line and bounced into his throat!

"The purple blue fruit sent this time is very sweet. The empress was very satisfied.

"Ahem...... Ahem...... Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Ren Baqian felt that he was about to lose his breath, and the grape was directly stuck in his trachea.

Seeing that his condition was not good, the empress dodged and slapped him on the back, and the grape spit out and hit the ground as it was, and bounced up and hit the eyes of the green kite.

"Oops!" the blue kite was also taken aback.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, your purple blue flower fruit is really not something that ordinary people can enjoy!" Ren Baqian's face turned red, and he finally recovered, and then looked at the fruit on the plate held by the cub "Golden Retriever", and his face was innocent, and he was almost choked to death by such an inconspicuous fruit just now.

A few days ago, the empress gave the listening cub a few names, namely Dove, Ferrero and Erguotou, and Ren Baqian also gave a name called King Kong, and finally compromised and became a golden retriever......

"I don't know how to be kind. The Empress snorted softly and floated back to the couch to ignore him.

Ren Baqian stood in place and touched his neck before stepping forward and said, "Your Majesty, I just gave the drawings of the clock tower to the Zhang family, and then we can build a lighthouse in the center of Lancheng, and everyone can see it when they look up." ”

The empress has always been interested in such a topic, and soon forgot that she almost tossed Ren to death with a fruit, and began to discuss with great interest where to build a lighthouse.

The empress's idea was to be on the square in front of the palace, but Ren Baqian felt that it was not suitable, the lighthouse was about twenty zhang high in the plan, and it could be said that there was an unobstructed view of the palace from there, and it was not suitable to be too close to the palace.

The empress thought about it, and what Ren Baqian said made sense.

The two took out the blueprints of Lancheng and compared them for an afternoon, and at first planned to demolish a small piece of shops near Jingyang Street to make a turntable square, with a lighthouse in the middle, and at the same time make it the center of Lancheng.

As a result, considering that whether it is the mobilization of flying horses or activities such as Feng Hunting, they all start in front of the palace, and such a turntable square is an affected road, and finally changed to the next side, the middle of the Beihong District and the Bead Curtain District.

After the location was decided, Ren Baqian began to think about the feasibility of speculating in the vicinity.

As an earthling, I subconsciously feel that there will definitely be an appreciation there.

But after thinking about it carefully, he gave up this idea, his actions are often on behalf of the empress, and it is not a good thing for the royal family to compete with the people in this regard.

What's more, Ren Baqian and the empress have always had a more ambitious idea - to build a modern new city next to Lancheng after robbing the Yunguo, a new city with relatively complete drainage, pipes, wires, layout, public facilities, and toilets.

Although Lancheng is the imperial capital, there are too many ills in the city of this era.

Open defecation alone is a headache. From the old Shi Qing to the peddlers and pawns below, they didn't care about this matter.

Although orders have recently begun to be placed to control this aspect, especially the excretion of mounts in the city, it is still difficult to stop it.

On the one hand, I don't care about it from top to bottom, so it's naturally difficult to implement, and on the other hand, especially in Lancheng, there is no public toilet in most places and a few streets, can it still make people suffocate to death?

Therefore, the value of Yun Guo is great, and in Yun Guo, there are too many expectations of Ren Baqian and the empress.

The population of Yun Country, the craftsmen of Yun Country, the mines of Yun Country, and the wealth of Yun Country are none of the two of them that they are not worried about.
