Chapter 289 The Steam Engine

Unknowingly, a few months passed by, and it was time for the harvest of the agricultural plants brought from overseas. Seeing the gratifying fields, the farmers were full of expectations.

The farmers dug the sweet potatoes out of the soil, and looking at the huge sweet potatoes with the clay, everyone wondered if this thing was as sweet as it was described.

Farmers take it home, wash it, put it in a pot and cook it, and eat it when it is cooked. It is indeed very sweet and delicious.

And these overseas plants are easy to grow here.

This is not an invasive species.

In biology, an alien species refers to a species, subspecies or lower taxa outside its natural distribution range and distribution location, including any part, gametes or propagules of these species that can survive and reproduce.

The invasion of alien species refers to the process of biological species migrating from the original place to a new ecological environment through natural or artificial means. It has two meanings. First, the species must be alien and non-native; second, the alien species can Settling, self-propagating and spreading in local natural or artificial ecosystems will eventually significantly affect the local ecological environment and damage local biodiversity.Invasive alien species can disrupt the naturalness and integrity of landscapes, destroy ecosystems, endanger plant and animal diversity, and affect genetic diversity.

Even if these agricultural plants are invasive species, so what, China is vast and rich in resources, food is in short supply, if these plants can overflow, the problem of food will be solved by then, this Jiang Chen is eager to see.

It's just that the population of China needs a lot of food, and it is difficult for these exotic plants to flood.

Just like sweet potatoes, not to mention sweet potatoes are edible, but its leaves can be eaten by animals and humans.

If everyone could eat sweet potatoes, people would not starve to death.

These exotic agricultural plants still cannot solve the problem of food shortage, at most they can alleviate the problem.

Of course, Jiang Chen also encourages farmers to raise chickens, ducks, fish, etc...

For the next plan, Jiang Chen asked Shi Ship Division to design and improve a new hull.

The serialization of Jiang Chen's "Journey to the West" has ended, and now "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is being serialized.

Since "Water Margin" is contrary to the current politics, this novel will not be written for the time being.

And Mo Chou's "Legend of the New White Snake" is also a big hit, with tens of thousands of copies sold so far.

These incomes are Mochou's personal.

But Mochou used the money for charity, which was praised by the people.

Mo Chou said that she would make atonement for her previous sins, her hands were covered with blood, and she would spend the rest of her life to atone for her children.

Jiang Chen naturally agreed.

On this day Jiang Chen took out a blueprint, this blueprint was a blueprint of a steam engine.

To be precise, this is a drawing of the steam principle of textile machinery.

Jiang Chen studied the current weaving machine this month, and after his own research and design, he finally designed the weaving steam machine.

A steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work.

A steam engine requires a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam, which can use wood, coal, oil or natural gas, or even combustible garbage as a heat source.The expansion of the steam pushes the piston to do work.

The structure of this textile steam engine is still very simple.

And the principle is easy to understand after Jiang Chen and the officials explained it.

For example, a kettle for boiling water, after the water boils, the lid keeps beating, which is the effect of steam.

Jiang Chen just introduced the concept of steam into this world in advance. With the wisdom of the working people, the principle of steam engines will be used more and more in the future, and finally the industrial revolution will be realized.

For a long time recently, Jiang Chen has been thinking about how to make the country rich and strong, but now he yearns for the life of ordinary people.

The sky was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly. Jiang Chen decided to take them on a westward tour.

This time, he did not accompany the king, but brought two eunuchs by his side, and then left the palace with his wife and children.

Although very low-key, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women still attracted a lot of attention along the way.

There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.

The scenery of Westward Journey in Hangzhou is indeed very beautiful. At this time, there are many tourists playing in the West Lake, and of course there are also gifted scholars and beauties.

Watching them running around to play, Jiang Chen sat in the tea pavilion, drinking tea and eating snacks.

Although this tea is ordinary tea, but the scenery is very good.

Lu Hanyan sat opposite to him.

"It's so beautiful here, it would be great if I could live here forever."

"You can live here if you like, it's just a matter of my words."

"Forget it. If I live here, I won't be able to see you every day. Compared to this, I don't want to leave you."

"Actually, you understand, I hope you are happy, and I don't want you to change anything because of me."

"It makes me happy to see you every day."

"Meeting you is a blessing in my life."

"Then you are so lucky, so many girls love you deeply."

Jiang Chen didn't answer the words in embarrassment, he was really bothering.

While they were drinking tea and chatting leisurely, they suddenly heard many shouts on the bridge over there.

Jiang Chen heard very well, he heard that a child fell into the water!
"What happened, my lord?"

"It appears that a child fell off the bridge."

The two ran over to have a look, but saw that there was no shadow of the child on the water, and they probably had already sunk.

Many people watched but no one went down to save people.

"You wait for me here, and I will save people."

"Well, be careful."

"Ah."

Jiang Chen broke off a dry branch, threw it toward the water, and then flew towards the branch to chase after it.

Everyone suddenly saw a person flying over quickly.

People in this world are no strangers to martial arts masters, so it's not surprising that they are just surprised that this person has high martial arts skills.

The branch fell to the surface of the water, Jiang Chen's body lightly stepped on the branch floating on the water surface, his body stood on it as if feathers had no weight, this was somewhat against mechanics.

Jiang Chen looked around for any movement on the water surface.

It seems that we can only enter the water to find it.

With a plop, the body dived into the water, and the watching crowd exclaimed.

Entering the water, he was like a fish, swimming in the water very fast, and anxiously looking for the figure of the child who fell into the water.

According to the speed of the water flow, the time for the person falling into the water should not be washed away by the water flow very far, and according to the direction of the water flow, he looked in the direction of the water flow, and after a while, he saw a child with his limbs spread out, following the water. Adrift.
