Chapter 923 The steam engine exploded again!

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ¡° If you want to decide which ethnic group in the world is the smartest, it¡¯s hard for Liu Mingqi to say.

    But if you think about which ethnic group can study the most and work hardest, it must be our Chinese nation.

    No one knows better than us what it means to endure hardship.

    We have been using this spirit since Gou Jian, King of Yue, to the new century.

    Without the accumulation of decades of hard work starting from a screw, a button, and a piece of clothing, how could we have continuously exploded aircraft carriers?

    Where do we have enough confidence to directly scold the beautiful country? You are not qualified to say punishment from the perspective of strength and talk to us?

    In today¡¯s Dakang, there happens to be such a group of people who are also studying hard.

    These people are the descendants of the Mohist family.

    The two hundred carefully selected Mohist disciples were originally going to learn a few more techniques, but they were all thrown into the "Steam Engine Laboratory" by Liu Mingqi.

    What¡¯s the best way to deal with tech geeks?

    Naturally, just show them the real thing and make them greedy.

    Since Liu Mingqi traveled through time, he has been writing down many memories and information from his previous life on quiet nights.

    Among them, the steam engine is naturally the top priority.

    Humanity¡¯s mechanical civilization began with the steam engine.

    The inventor of the steam engine was not actually Watt, but Watt modified the steam engine to be most suitable for industrial use, thus starting the steam age.

    This is the beginning of the rapid advancement of the West, not the invention of muskets and gunboats.

    For Liu Mingqi, this is also the first step to climb the technological tree.

    Of course he would leave such an important matter to the most elite people.

    Therefore, the two hundred Mohist disciples sent by the imperial court were naturally the best candidates to make steam engines.

    Of course, Liu Mingqi can also teach them step by step how to make a steam engine. This is not difficult.

    But scientists must have the spirit of exploration. If Liu Mingqi teaches them everything, how will they invent and create new things in the future?

    Therefore, after Liu Mingqi threw them hundreds of drawings and taught them about ten lessons on a small blackboard, these young people began to experiment with vigor.

    Liu Mingqi didn¡¯t take care of them for long.

    He went out in March, and it was almost July when he came back.

    There has been no news about the steam engine, and Liu Mingqi was also a little puzzled.

    After speaking to Wu Yeshuang who was busy, the young man arrived at the "Steam Engine Laboratory" outside the city.

    ??To build a steam engine, it must not be a small place.

    For this purpose, the Ministry of Works specially allocated a piece of land next to the Beimen River outside the city, and then Liu Mingqi built a house, provided various raw materials and funds, and allowed this group of technical nerds to start research.

    Except for the enlightening knowledge Liu Mingqi gave them and the detailed drawings and information, the Mohist disciples knew nothing about steam engines.

    But despite this, after hearing the pie that Liu Mingqi drew for them, they still actively studied it.

    Of course, the "Steam Engine Laboratory" is also guarded by sergeants.

    There are yamen patrolling around the Imperial Palace yamen at all times, and the Xiuyiwei spy also has a stronghold here.

    And seven miles away from here is a military camp of the Leopard Cavalry Guards. No one would be able to commit any earth-shattering robbery in the hinterland of Gyeonggi Province.

    The official in charge here is named Ke Deyou. He was originally a member of the Ministry of Industry. He led the way in the selection and won the title of host of this task without any suspense.

    When he saw Liu Mingqi, he pulled the young man inside without saying a word.

    As he walked, he said: "Your Highness, you are back! Come over quickly, we have encountered a big problem!"

    The young man asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"

    "It's like this. Didn't we make a steam suction machine before?" Ke Deyou said: "There were no problems during the experiment, but after the actual operation, problems appeared one after another. Yesterday, there was a violent explosion.  Three people were killed and seven were injured! Now everyone is very distressed! You are here just in time to help them clear up their confusion!"

    Liu Mingqi immediately frowned.

    When he just returned to the capital, he heard Wu Yeshuang talk about what happened here.

    The two hundred Mohist disciples in the Steam Engine Laboratory can be regarded as very outstanding talents, and they are not very old, basically around eighteen years old.

    &nbssp; A group of people were so scolded by Liu Mingqi that they could not hold their heads up.

    Originally, they were all technical people and they paid more attention to safety issues, but who said that the steam engine was too new and promising?

    That¡¯s why they just want to get it out as soon as possible and don¡¯t think about anything else.

    "Okay, now you go read what I wrote! Let me take a look at your steam engine! We will discuss it later!"

    Fortunately, Liu Mingqi did not scold them all the time, but instead stepped aside and asked them to learn knowledge.

    At first, this group of people rushed to squeeze in, which was a bit noisy.

    But then it turned into silence, then there was a quiet discussion, and then it turned into a loud quarrel, as if there was a fight.

    Standing next to the steam engine, Liu Mingqi nodded slightly when he heard this process.

    The truth is unclear.

    I love my teacher, and I love the truth even more.

    Only when there is a fierce collision of thoughts, will new sparks emerge.

    If everyone thinks the same thing, then what¡¯s the point of discussing it?

    It is because everyone thinks in different directions, and the gap in thinking allows everyone to have different opinions, and then debate on various deviations.

    Only by convincing others both theoretically and practically and coming up with practical things can the purpose of scientific research be achieved.

    Usually scientific progress comes from this.

    ???Hasn¡¯t the other world had enough of the serious consequences of working behind closed doors?
