"Okay, don't think about it anymore, and don't try to think about the thoughts of adults. You have also been an official in the court, don't you know that you can't think about the thoughts of the Holy One?" Liu Wenzhong glanced at Hong Chengchou, and then walked into the General Military Mansion .

Seeing this, Hong Chengchou hurriedly followed Liu Wenzhong in.

At this time, Chen Xinjia sat quietly on the chair, motionless.

When Liu Wenzhong walked in, Chen Xinjia stood up from his chair with a puzzled expression, and looked at Liu Wenzhong.

"Dare to ask, but Mr. Chen Xinjia?" Liu Wenzhong cupped his hands at Chen Xinjia and asked.

Liu Wenzhong also knew about the peace request a long time ago, so he also knew Chen Xinjia's name.

Chen Xinjia didn't know who Liu Wenzhong was, but he also bowed to him, "I am Chen Xinjia!"

"I'm Liu Wenzhong, the director general of the Council Department of Xuan Town!" Liu Wenzhong returned a salute.

After Chen Xinjia saluted Liu Wenzhong, he set his sights on Hong Chengchou.

He looked at Hong Chengchou, and the more he looked at him, the more he felt familiar. He felt that he had seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

Hong Chengchou has never met Chen Xinjia, and there is no way to compare Chen Xinjia and Hong Chengchou before.

One is a big official in the frontier, and the other is a small official in the court. Hong Chengchou has no reason to know Chen Xinjia.

Even if Hong Chengchou had met him, but after so many years, and Chen Xinjia's position was not high at that time, Hong Chengchou had almost forgotten about it.

Hong Chengchou doesn't know Chen Xinjia, but it doesn't mean Chen Xinjia doesn't know Hong Chengchou.

When Hong Chengchou went to the capital to report on his work before, Chen Xinjia met Hong Chengchou several times, because the time was a little far away, and the court said before that Hong Chengchou died in Xuanzhen, so Chen Xinjia is still a little unresponsive.

Hong Chengchou cupped his hands at Chen Xinjia and said, "I'm here, Hong Chengchou!"

"What? Hong Chengchou?" Chen Xinjia was shocked when he heard this.

"I just said why this person looks so familiar, it turned out to be Hong Chengchou, no wonder, no wonder.

However, didn't Hong Chengchou die in battle before?Why did it suddenly appear here now?From the looks of it, they are still Zhao Wen's subordinates.Could it be that he surrendered to Zhao Wen? "

Chen Xinjia's heart was overwhelmed, and he thought of a lot in just a few breaths.

Chen Xinjia took a deep breath and looked at Hong Chengchou. To be on the safe side, Chen Xinjia cautiously asked, "Master Hong was an official in the court before?"

Hong Chengchou's eyes half-closed, Hong Chengchou didn't even need to think about what Chen Xinjia meant by asking, it must be this Chen Xinjia who recognized him.

"Hehe, you are right. I am Hong Chengchou, the former governor of the three sides, who led the Qin army, Guanning army, Datong army and other troops to attack Xuanzhen!" Hong Chengchou told his past without changing his expression .

"It really is him!" Chen Xinjia murmured secretly, and then he thought to himself, "Hong Chengchou surrendered to Zhao Wen, I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. At the beginning, His Majesty valued him very much. At that time, he thought he died in Xuanzhen. , and even stopped court for three days. I don’t know how His Majesty will react when he knows the truth.”

"Lord Hong, I really didn't expect you to surrender. When His Majesty thought you died in Xuanzhen, He stopped court for three days. Later, His Majesty would always think of you and say how powerful you are." , how loyal you are!" Chen Xinjia looked at Hong Chengchou and said calmly.

Chen Xinjia originally wanted to scold Hong Chengchou, but this is Xuanzhen, and because of his status, he held back.

Chen Xinjia's words seemed calm, but they were ridiculing Hong Chengchou inside and out.He said all the time, you Hong Chengchou are sorry for the court, sorry for your majesty, how can you surrender?You should not surrender.

"Humph!" Hong Chengchou snorted coldly, but did not answer.

At this time, no matter what Hong Chengchou answered, it didn't work. No matter how he answered, he was just asking for humiliation, so Hong Chengchou simply didn't answer.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things. The chief soldier has left the matter of seeking peace to us, and let's talk about it first!" Seeing this, Liu Wenzhong hurriedly smoothed things over.

Chen Xinjia didn't bother with these things anymore, he let out a long sigh, and then sat down.

Liu Wenzhong sat on the chair next to Chen Xinjia, and began to talk slowly about the peace request.

After Zhao Wen walked out of the General Military Mansion, he asked someone to get a bicycle and pedaled towards the ironworks.

Although the roads in Xuanzhen had been paved with cement, Zhao Wen still found it difficult to ride on these cement roads.

Because there is no rubber, the tires of bicycles can only be wrapped with something soft.

These soft things are either sackcloth soaked in tung oil, or some cork.

Compared with serious tires, this kind of thing has a big gap.

Zhao Wen was riding on the bicycle, thinking about rubber.

"Rubber, don't try to get it out in a short time. Now that Zheng Yiguan has not returned from America, the rubber has not been found yet, so we can only wait slowly!"

Zhao Wen let out a long breath, stood up, and pedaled his bicycle vigorously.

Li Xiaosan and other guards following Zhao Wen saw that Zhao Wen was speeding up, so they also hurriedly speeded up.

Not long after, Zhao Wen arrived outside the ironworks.

Zhao Wen listened to the bicycle in his hand outside the ironworks, and led Li Xiaosan and the others into the ironworks.

After entering the ironworks, Zhao Wen went straight to the workshop where Song Yingxing was.

At this time, Song Yingxing was standing outside the factory building, his eyes fixed on the running generator in the factory building.

After Zhao Wen's systematic teaching, Song Yingxing only had to produce a generator again.

Today is the time to test the generator.

"Voltage is normal!" A student standing next to the voltmeter in the factory building looked at the needle on the voltmeter, which turned slightly, and shouted happily to Song Yingxing outside.

The noise in the workshop is also much lower than before, and the students don't have to run out to report to Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing nodded, then looked at the factory building, "How is the current situation?"

"Teacher, the current is normal and stable!" The student standing next to the ammeter also shouted.

Hearing this, Song Yingxing let out a long breath, a trace of joy appeared on his face.

"It's finally succeeded. I didn't waste your hard work. It's not easy, it's not easy! Haha!" Song Yingxing was filled with emotion.

"What's the matter? Why are you so happy?" Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing who was laughing up to the sky, and walked to Song Yingxing with a smile on his face.

Song Yingxing turned around when he heard Zhao Wen's voice.

"I have seen you!" Song Yingxing saluted Zhao Wen, and said happily: "My lord, the problem has finally been solved. After your systematic teaching, I recreated it according to the knowledge I learned from you." A generator, now the generator has finally been successfully manufactured, the voltage and current are very stable, without any problems."

When Zhao Wen heard this, he smiled, "Not bad, the generator has been successfully manufactured, and the rest is a series of auxiliary equipment such as transformers. I have told you the basic principles of transformers before. After I go back today , I will draw the drawings of these things for you, and try to manufacture these things at one time."

The transformers and other drawings that Zhao Wen intends to draw are some of the most basic and simple drawings. As for those UHV equipment, Zhao Wen does not need to give Song Yingxing.

The motherland of later generations is said to be the second in the world in the field of UHV, and no one dares to say that it is the first.The UHV technology is also the most confidential secret. Although Zhao Wen knows the general working principle of UHV, it is only learned from books when he was in college. As for the specific working method of UHV, Zhao Wen does not know, and also Can't draw drawings.

Besides, there is no need to engage in UHV technology nowadays.UHV technology is for long-distance power transmission, and now only Xuanzhen can use electricity, and UHV technology is useless now.

Even if there are more places to use electricity in the future, it is impossible to build power plants in every important city like in later generations.

"My lord, you told me before that the insulation material used on the wires is best to be rubber, but we don't have rubber now, what should we do?" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen said: "That's right, the best insulating material on wires is rubber. But this does not mean that there is no suitable insulating material without rubber. Ordinary dry linen, dry silk, ceramics and the like are all good. Insulating material, and tung oil also has a good insulating effect.

Now Zheng Yiguan is looking for rubber in the Americas, and it is estimated that he will get the rubber back in a short time. During the period when there is no rubber, you can test it with cotton cloth soaked in tung oil.If the results are good, use this material instead during the time when there is no rubber. "

"My lord, is this okay?" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen suspiciously, and asked in disbelief.

Earlier, Zhao Wen had personally told him that the most suitable insulating material for wires was rubber. Now that Zhao Wen asked him to test the sackcloth soaked in tung oil, Song Yingxing was a little worried.

This is electricity, essentially no different from the lightning in the sky. What if something goes wrong?

"This method should work. You can do what I said first. Although the rubber may not come back in the short term, it won't be too long. During the period when the rubber doesn't come back, you can Experiment with it this way.

By the way, in addition to these, I will give you some drawings of machine tools driven by electricity and drawings of light bulbs.Today, generators have been successfully manufactured, and it will not be long before electric machine tools can be produced. By then, many things can be manufactured with these electric machine tools, and light bulbs should also be manufactured. "

In Zhao Wen's vision, the streets and alleys of Xuanzhen should be filled with street lights.

In today's era, because of the backwardness of lighting tools, people basically return to their homes to sleep at night.

When it is just dark in later generations, nightlife has just begun.

As soon as Zhao Wen thought of the scene of the later generations sitting around the roadside stalls and eating skewers, he felt itchy in his heart.

Skewers must be done at night, and there is no such artistic conception during the day.

Don't look at it as a small skewer, there is a lot of knowledge in it.

Skewers can consume a lot of beef and mutton, which can bring a lot of profits to the herdsmen who raise cattle and sheep, and vendors who sell skewers can also make a lot of money.

In addition to these, additional taxes can be increased, and the night life of the people in Xuanzhen can be enriched.

If managed properly, the tax revenue generated by this alone can cover the cost of generating electricity.

This is a good thing that serves multiple purposes. Zhao Wen has no reason not to support such a thing.

"Light bulb? But the light bulb that my lord told me about before?" Song Yingxing asked.

Zhao Wen nodded, "You are right, it is the light bulb I told you about before. At that time, I explained the light bulb to you in detail. After I go back this time, I will give you the detailed drawings of the light bulb and Find out the manufacturing method, and then you can slowly produce according to the drawings and production methods I gave you."

"If that's the case, then I'll just wait for your lord's arrangement!" Song Yingxing cupped his hands at Zhao Wengong and said seriously.

"I won't bother you anymore. I'll hang around here. You can handle your own affairs!" Zhao Wen waved at Song Yingxing, and then took Li Xiaosan around the ironworks.

Zhao Wen was walking on the concrete road in the ironworks. He looked at the chimneys erected in the ironworks that kept emitting black smoke, and muttered to himself: "Nowadays, there are no more than one kiln mouth in the ironworks. Thousands of kilns, these kiln mouths emit countless black smoke every day. Fortunately, there is no pollution in this era. This black smoke is nothing.

However, you can't just let it go.After going back later, we must plan these ironworks carefully. "

Zhao Wen came to the outside of an iron-smelting kiln. This iron-smelting kiln smelts rails. The rails that were successfully smelted and cooled down were placed on the small square next to the kiln entrance by the workers inside.

A lot of rails have been placed on this small square, and after the Chinese New Year, these rails will be transported to Shanxi.

Although it is winter now, the workers inside are wearing single clothes.

Working in this environment, even wearing unlined clothes will not feel cold.

The work in the ironworks is very hard, but the workers here are happy and happy, and they don't feel any hard work at all.

These workers basically escaped from Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places in the past. It is an honor for them to work here, not to mention that the wages of working in an iron factory are not low.

"After the electricity is completely spread out, I can start smelting aluminum. When the aluminum is smelted, the time is ripe in the future, and maybe I can manufacture airplanes.

Although it is a bit far away now, there is still a dream, what if it comes true? The more Zhao Wen thought about it, the more excited he became. He seemed to have seen the scene of himself flying a plane.

Industrial aluminum smelting is electrolysis, which can smelt aluminum quickly and on a large scale.

Before this method appeared, the replacement method was used for smelting, but the cost of this method was so high that it was even higher than the value of gold.

If it weren't for this reason, the short emperor who made Europa panic would not be so fond of aluminum products.

Aluminum is a good aviation material, especially aluminum-magnesium alloy, which is an indispensable material for aviation.

Li Xiaosan stood beside Zhao Wen. He looked at Zhao Wen who was excited and murmured to himself, and muttered in a puzzled voice, "What kind of chicken is a flying chicken? Chickens can fly too, but they don't fly very high. , I don’t know what kind of chicken the adult is talking about!”

Although Li Xiaosan's voice was very small, it was still heard by Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen looked at Li Xiaosan with a smile, and said with a smile: "This plane is not a chicken like a rooster or a hen, it is a means of transportation that is even more powerful than a train.

The train can only run on the ground, but this plane can fly in the sky, and it can also fly with people.If it is possible to manufacture an airplane, I will definitely take you to see it! "

"My lord, isn't this the method of a god? Aren't all those who can fly in the sky are gods? Ordinary people like me can also fly in the sky?" Li Xiaosan looked at Zhao Wen dumbfounded.

"Who told you that all flying in the sky are gods? If the plane is really manufactured, even people who don't know a single word can fly in the sky!" Zhao Wen laughed.

"It's not a fairy who can fly in the sky?" Li Xiaosan muttered twice in shock.

"My lord, there is auspiciousness, there is auspiciousness!" At this moment, a soldier who ran out of the General Military Mansion came to Zhao Wen's place sweating profusely.

He stopped in front of Zhao Wen, panting heavily.

"My lord, there is auspiciousness, there is auspiciousness!" the soldier shouted at Zhao Wen out of breath.

Zhao Wen was slightly taken aback, "Auspicious? What auspicious?"

Zhao Wen comes from a later generation, and he dare not sneer at the auspiciousness of this era, but he still has reservations.

In Zhao Wen's impression, those ancient auspicious signs were nothing more than things used to flatter the ruler's feet.

Now that Zhao Wen is about to ascend the throne as emperor, someone suddenly came to say that there is auspiciousness, and Zhao Wen knew what was going on without even thinking about it.

"Auspiciousness? Where is there any auspiciousness in this world? Didn't I tell you before, don't do these ambiguous things and keep your feet on the ground." Zhao Wen was a little annoyed.

Zhao Wen didn't want to turn the officials of Xuanzhen into flatterers just because he was about to become emperor.

"My lord, it's really auspicious. It was brought back from Sichuan by Lord Wang Qiwang's subordinates. Before that, Lord Wang Qiwang sent a large number of spies to Sichuan, Shaanxi, Henan and other places according to your order.

This morning, a returning team from Sichuan walked down the train station in Xuan Town with a few iron cages. As soon as they got out of the station, people gathered in the train station to watch.

In order to send these auspicious signs back in time, these people had no choice but to ask the defenders around the train station to get a few carriages, put these auspicious signs on the carriages, covered them with red cloth and sent them to the small square outside the General Military Mansion. .
