Borrow the day to change the day

When Song Yingxing saw that Zhongxing Hou was so excited, he knew that he hadn't spoken clearly and that he had misunderstood him.

So, Song Yingxing quickly explained: "Master Hou, it's because the officials didn't make it clear. The prototype of the steam engine is made now, but it can't be used yet. There are many key points that need to be improved."

After Zhong Jinwei heard this, he slapped Song Yingxing on the shoulder and said, "I said, if you want to be so fast, I thought it was going to be a monster genius!"

Even if Daming gathered all the skilled craftsmen, Zhong Jinwei would not believe that a working steam engine could be made in just over two months!

"Come on, where is it? Take me to see the prototype." Zhong Jinwei asked.

Song Yingxing felt Zhong Jinwei's desire for the steam engine, and he secretly reminded himself to pay attention to this, and then replied Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, that steam engine is very huge, and the workmanship is also laborious. Therefore, only one was made, and it was placed on the power. Institute, in continuous improvement."

"Okay, then go to the Power Research Institute." Zhong Jinwei ordered immediately.

The name of the power institute was given by Zhong Jinwei.His goal is to make this power research institute work hard in the direction of the steam engine, steam turbine, and internal combustion engine technology tree.Every step of this technology tree will have an earth-shaking impact on society, so a special department must be set up to do this.

The Power Research Institute is not far from the Royal Research Institute, and Song Yingxing often walks over to see this new machine.Therefore, Zhong Jinwei and his party soon came to the Power Research Institute.

I heard that the dean led Zhongxing Hou to look at the steam engine, and all relevant personnel came out to greet him.

But Zhong Jinwei was not interested in this kind of ceremony, and directly ordered Song Yingxing to lead him to visit the steam engine.

The Power Research Institute occupies a relatively small area. In addition to the main research site of the steam engine, there are also specially equipped blacksmith and carpenter rooms so that corresponding parts can be made at any time.

Zhong Jinwei, led by Song Yingxing, came to a large room.As soon as I entered the door, I saw a huge machine in the room.

Zhong Jinwei understood that this was the prototype of the steam engine they made, so he immediately looked around the steam engine.

Like cylinders and boilers, Zhong Jinwei can see them at a glance.To his surprise, he saw that the connecting rod and the flywheel could make a circular motion as long as the piston turned.

Zhong Jinwei was very surprised, and praised repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad!" Then he pointed to the connecting rod and flywheel and said, "Who thought of this?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yingxing stretched out his hand sideways to beckon a very young boy, and then introduced to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, he did it."

When Zhong Jinwei saw it, he was very surprised. He was able to do this at such a young age. Is physics so good?

"What's your name, where are you from, how did you come up with this?" Zhong Jinwei asked with a surprised expression.

In front of Zhong Jinwei, this young man was graceful and graceful, without any sense of restraint.When Zhong Jinwei asked him, he replied calmly: "Student Fang Yizhi, whose name is Mizhi, and whose name is Mangong, is from Tongcheng, Anhui. This thing is not difficult, and it can be made with a little thought."

Song Yingxing was still surprised to see Zhong Jinwei on the side, and introduced with a smile: "Master Hou, he is from a famous family. His great-grandfather Fang Xuejian was proficient in medicine and Neo-Confucianism, and he had a comprehensive understanding of various schools of thought to form his own system; His grandfather Fang Dazhen served as Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple during the Wanli period; his maternal grandfather Wu Yingbin was proficient in Buddhism and Confucianism; his father Fang Kongzhang is the current governor of Huguang; each of them has their works widely circulated."

After Fang Yizhi entered Beijing, he quickly got to know the various research institutes in the capital.It happened that the Institute of Power, which he was most interested in, was recruiting, so he went to take the test. As a result, Song Yingxing, who presided over the test at the time, was overjoyed by his knowledge, as if he had won a treasure.

However, Song Yingxing was a little worried, because Fang Yizhi's family was a family of officials and officials, and his family might not agree with him entering the power research institute.

But Fang Yizhi gave many reasons to ensure that there is no problem at home.Song Yingxing used the mentality of picking up a treasure for the time being.

Fang Yizhi lived up to his expectations, and soon became the absolute core of the Institute of Power Research on steam engines, and he led the creation of the prototype of the steam engine.

Hearing Song Yingxing introduce his life experience now, I feel a little embarrassed.After Song Yingxing finished speaking, he explained: "This has nothing to do with family background. The main reason is that my teacher has a book called "Physics". There are many contents in it that are helpful for students to study this steam engine."

In history, Fang Yizhi was greatly influenced by this book, and finally wrote "Little Knowledge of Physics", which became his masterpiece of scientific research.

When Zhong Jinwei heard it, he couldn't help asking: "Your teacher wrote "Physics"? What's the name, so powerful?"

Fang Yizhi was very happy to hear Zhongxing Hou boasting about his teacher. He quickly replied: "The student's teacher is surnamed Wang, first name Xuan, styled Huaqing, named Xuzhou, from Jinxi, Jiangxi."

After hearing this, Zhong Jinwei turned around and said to Wang Peng, "Remember it for me, remember to remind me when you turn around to see the saint, such a talent should not be wasted."

Fang Yizhi was overjoyed when he heard this, and then his face darkened. He said to Zhong Jinwei, "Master Hou, my teacher is old and sick, so I'm afraid he won't be able to come."

When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he felt very sorry.Seeing that Fang Yizhi looked a little sad again, he changed the subject and said, "Tell me what are the shortcomings of this steam engine?"

As soon as he asked about his favorite work, Fang Yizhi regained his energy immediately. He reported to Zhong Jin Weihui: "Master Hou, the main problem of this steam engine is steam leakage, and heat dissipation is also a big problem."

Pointing to the huge cylinder, he said: "But the biggest problem with the steam engine is not these two. Lord Hou, please see, after the steam enters the cylinder, it pushes the piston. Next, the cylinder needs to be cooled to allow the piston to push back. In this way , because once the cylinder is cold, it takes a long time to wait for the steam to enter and then push the piston again, so the efficiency is very low.”

Speaking of this, Fang Yizhi couldn't help rubbing his hands together and said, "I'm stumped by these points now, and I'm trying to solve it."

Zhong Jinwei did not feel any dissatisfaction when he heard it. He smiled and encouraged Fang Yizhi: "I am surprised that you have built a prototype so quickly. Now that the problem can be found, it is not a problem. Just work hard , solve the problems one by one, the success of the steam engine is just around the corner!"

When he said this, he glanced at Song Yingxing, and then seduced Fang Yizhi: "As long as you can solve these problems and build a steam engine that is really practical. I assure you, the Earl will definitely not be able to escape!"

Although Fang Yizhi's family is a family of officials and eunuchs, no one has ever won a title.Now that Zhong Jinwei Xu Ruo can get the title, Fang Yizhi, who has seen the world, is a little excited, and at the same time, it makes him feel a little worried.
