Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 322 Grand Commendation

The seventeenth century in history was a century in which geniuses came forth in large numbers. If Zhu Changyuan remembers correctly, this period, especially some European scientists, such as Newton and Galileo, lived in the sixteenth century.

However, the only shortcoming is that Newton was still a nursing baby at this time, and Galileo had already passed away with the coffin board.It is impossible to capture the two of them to serve him and help him complete the task.

But it doesn't matter, this is the embryonic stage of modern science in Europe, and many theoretical knowledge has already begun to take shape. The industry collapsed a hundred years after going to England.

He did what he said, took out his mobile phone and called Kong He immediately.

"Hey!"

After the call was made, Zhu Changyuan said something first.

It took a long time to hear Kong He's voice: "Is this the general's voice?"

I only heard Kong and the Polu next to him say: "Yes, yes, I heard the voice of the master, talk to him quickly!"

Kong He raised his mobile phone to the top of his head respectfully, then saluted and knelt down again, which made Zhu Changyuan dumbfounded. However, he waited patiently for Kong He to finish his work, and asked, "Can we talk now?"

Kong He Zhengse said loudly: "Yes, Junhou, now the subordinates can speak!"

I'll go, it's the first time for this guy to use a mobile phone, and his voice catches up with Erdanzi Liu, this is really Erdanzi's heir from another generation!
"Keep your voice down, I can hear you!" Zhu Changyuan couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "Leave the affairs of Shaanxi to Polu first, and order you to return to Riyue Island as soon as possible. I will send a boat and arrive in Dengzhou, Shandong in two days. The time of day will come!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Kong He's answer, Zhu Changyuan hung up the phone with a snap.

It took less than two days to drive a large ship from Riyue Island to Dengzhou, but it could be reached in one day. However, it was impossible for Zhu Changyuan to drive a large ship there, it was not worth it.

He ordered two good sailors to drive his luxury speedboat all the way to Dengzhou, Shandong, which also took a day.

As for Kong He, riding the fast horse Zhu Changyuan gave him, he arrived in Dengzhou ahead of schedule without stopping.

When Kong He arrived on the island, a grand event was being held on the island, but it was not to welcome him, but to honor Dennis who invented the steam engine!

As a foreigner, Dennis was wearing red Chinese-style clothes at this time, and a big red flower was hung on his chest. As for this big red flower, Zhu Changyuan naturally arranged for someone to put it on.

Zhu Changyuan personally pulled Dennis down on the white altar that only he could go up to, waved to all the people on Sun Moon Island who came over, and said: "Everyone on the island, hello!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

All the people below surrounded the entire altar with three floors inside and three floors outside, without a single gap. These people were all the people on the entire Sun Moon Island, including those foreign businessmen who came to the island to do business.

In order to commend Dennis, and also to encourage the rest of the people to learn more and love to invent, Zhu Changyuan did not hesitate to mobilize the whole island to give a face-to-face speech this time.

"Be quiet!" Zhu Changyuan stretched out his hands, pressed down slightly, signaled to all the people present to be quiet, and then said softly: "Let me introduce, this is the new resident of our Sun Moon Island, Mr. Dennis! "

"Maybe two days ago he was just an ordinary nameless person, and even now many people don't know why I invited Mr. Dennis here. Are you wondering if Mr. Dennis beat him there?" Victory? Did it bring spoils of war to Sun Moon Island again?"

"I tell you, neither!"

Zhu Changyuan waved his hand and said: "Mr. Dennis is just a scholar, and he is still an ordinary person until now. However, he is an ordinary person who works hard in his position, but he did an extraordinary thing!"

"Come up!"

With a big wave of their hands, Yan Hong and Chang Ning below personally lifted up a large drawing of Zhang Xu square, on which was drawn a schematic diagram of a steam engine.

Of course, many people can’t understand this blueprint. Although Zhu Changyuan popularized education on the island, at least half of them are still illiterate.

However, there are still quite a few people who have seen the way, and some smart people even saw it at a glance and said: "I know, this thing is mainly driven by heat and steam."

Zhu Changyuan smiled slightly and said, "Not bad!"

However, the man shook his head disapprovingly, respectful to Zhu Changyuan but dismissive to Dennis, and said: "Your Majesty, this idea is good, but my subordinates don't think that the heat can have much power, and I can't help it." It’s better to use people or big animals to push it directly!”

This is taken for granted.

Zhu Changyuan smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "The power of steam is beyond your imagination. When Mr. Dennis makes this thing later, you will know how powerful and powerful he is."

The earliest trains in the later generations were propelled by steam engines. Zhu Changyuan remembered that when he was in junior high school, some of the trains on the Longhai Line in his hometown were steam engines. It was already in the 90s.

It's impossible to say that the steam engine is boring, it's just that this thing doesn't run fast.

"Today, in front of all of you, I want to praise Dennis for this thing that Dennis invented. This thing will be extremely crucial for our entire Sun Moon Island and even the Ming Dynasty in the future."

But no, in the future Zhu Changyuan plans to build a railway artery that runs through the north and south of China. At that time, when the national power has not yet been developed, this kind of steam car can only be used to transport things and people.

"I love famous generals, but I love these smart people even more!" Zhu Changyuan paused and said, "I brought so many things from other places, and some of you have already seen them for almost two years." Yes, but I only know how to use it. Whoever has studied it carefully, who knows how these things work, who can figure out something from these basic principles, and then do other things in imitation ?”

"No, you people know how to work hard all day long. Brothers, everyone can do the work, but not everyone can know the knowledge, so you should study hard and study carefully. I believe you can do it too. Create something so powerful!"

Seeing that many people at the scene still half listened to what he said, Zhu Changyuan had no choice but to take out his trump card. From the tray held by a maid at the side, he lifted the red cloth on it and picked up a thick stack of hundred Yuan bills.

"Wow!" Seeing so much money, everyone at the scene was excited and their eyes lit up.

Sure enough, real wealth is the best thing that arouses everyone's desire.

"This is a 1 yuan banknote. I won't say how much you can buy, because I don't know, but I want to ask, how much income can the most ordinary laborer among you get a month?"

"Ten yuan!" Someone raised his hand and said.

"What year?" Zhu Changyuan asked again.

It was the same person just now, looking at Zhu Changyuan's innocent smile, he said with some embarrassment: "Excluding the days without work, I earned almost 76 yuan last year, and I had 50 yuan left after excluding household expenses."

Zhu Changyuan listened, and smiled slightly. This is indeed the wages of an ordinary laborer. He can save about 50 yuan a year, which seems very little, but with only 50 yuan, he can buy a car in a place close to the imperial city in Beijing. Set of small courtyard houses.

"Then let me tell you today, you can save 50 yuan a year, and if you want to save as much as 1 yuan, it will take 200 years!"

"Hiss!" I don't know if I don't say it, but I am shocked when I say it, 200 years, almost ten generations.

"Now, I want to award the 1 yuan bonus to Mr. Dennis!" After Zhu Changyuan finished speaking, he directly stuffed the money in Dennis' hands.

Dennis only knew that the island was mainly commending him today, but he didn't know that there was still 1 yuan in cash. He got it by chance, and almost passed out with blood.

Dazed, he took the money in Zhu Changyuan's hand. Dennis was really happy now. This is 1 yuan, 1 yuan, enough to buy several big houses and villas on Riyue Island.

"At the same time, starting today, I announce that Mr. Dennis will take up the post of the Minister of Science and Technology Research and Development of our Sun Moon Island, under the administration of Yan Hong!"

"Wow!"

The scene erupted instantly.

Nima, getting promoted and getting rich is something that many people dream of, especially when they become officials on Riyue Island, they can get respect from all over the world.

Moreover, it was the first time I heard that it was so easy to be promoted, without having to study hard for ten years, take the imperial examinations, and experience the pain of losing one's name!

Many people's minds, at least at that moment, were greatly shaken.

"Moreover, I announce!" Zhu Changyuan suppressed the boiling voices of the crowd, and said: "I will engrave Mr. Dennis's name on the hero cliff forever, and rank above all the soldiers!"

"No!"

Want to engrave this guy's name on the cliff of heroes, and still rank above all the soldiers?
Heroes Cliff has been built long ago, and the names of many people who have made outstanding contributions to Riyue Island, including Zhu Changyuan's [-] cavalry, are on it.

But now it is a bit too much to suddenly engrave this Dennis's name on it, even surpassing the major government affairs.

Even Yan Hong, Kong and the others were a little dissatisfied, but what's the use of dissatisfaction, now they all know that Zhu Changyuan is setting up a memorial archway, setting an example, and guiding everyone to delve into technology and invent and create.
