Chapter 39 The Steam Engine

Wenshen stroked Wang Zhaojun's back and asked, "Where is Zhao Feiyan, why didn't you see her?" Wang Zhaojun raised his head and stared at Wenshen, saying, "Why do you think of her? Wenshen, you are too fickle." Wenshen said innocently, "Why am I fickle?" Wang Zhaojun said with a contemptuous look: "I'm too lazy to talk about you. Sister Zhao went to the store, you are really like that. You haven't even gone to the new store to open, and you don't know what you are good about."

Wen Shen scratched his head and said guiltily: "I have been too busy these days and have forgotten about this. Otherwise, let's go to the store to take a look."

Wenshen, Wang Zhaojun and others put on their clothes and took a taxi to the store. The decorated stores were very different. The classical decoration made the store exude an ancient charm. A huge door plaque engraved with the words "Wenxuan Pavilion". There is a long entrance from the door to the hall, with more than a dozen landscape paintings hanging on both sides of the entrance. There are several glass cabinets in the hall, and some gems and jade artifacts are placed in the cabinet. Zhao Feiyan sat bored at the counter, playing with the computer.

"Sister Zhao, we are here." Wang Zhaojun shouted when he saw Zhao Feiyan. Zhao Feiyan looked up and saw Wen Shen, his nose felt sore, and he felt a little aggrieved: "You know how to come too." Wen Shen smiled and said, "This is a busy time. I'm here just after I finish my work."

In the store, Wenshen looked around and said, "Feiyan, you've made a good store, it's very delicious." Zhao Feiyan said a little annoyed, "What's good? I haven't had a customer these days, I don't know what to do in the future?" Wenshen smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you make money or not, as long as you are happy." Hearing this, Zhao Feiyan was moved and thought to himself: "Wenshen is still thinking about himself."

"Feiyan, I've made some jade calligraphy and paintings for you tomorrow and used them as the bottom of the box." Wenshen smiled. Zhao Feiyan smiled and said, "I knew that Wenshen is the best for me." Wang Zhaojun behind Wenshen secretly twisted the soft flesh on Wenshen's waist. Wenshen endured the pain, turned around and glared at Wang Zhaojun, thinking: "Why are women so scrupulous."

"Feiyan, I don't think the business is good, so why don't we close the door and go out for shopping?" Wang Zhaojun suggested to Zhao Feiyan. Zhao Feiyan looked at Wenshen, Wenshen quickly turned his head aside, pretending not to see it, thinking to himself: "I want to take me as a laborer, but there is no door." Seeing this, Wang Zhaojun glared and said, "Wenshen, why are you hiding? I'll compensate us two beauties to go shopping, and I'm sorry." Wenshen smiled and said, "How can I do that? I have something to do. You go, I'll leave first." After that, he came to Yizhou, the Great Song Dynasty through the space.

"This Wenshen is so lazy!" Seeing that Wenshen was gone, the two women had no choice but to curse in their hearts. "Let's go shopping, Sister Zhao, let's go shopping." Wang Zhaojun said angrily. Zhao Feiyan also wanted to go out for a walk, so the two decided to close the door and go shopping.

At Yizhou Machinery Factory, a group of workers formed a circle. There was a formal Wenshen sitting in the middle of the circle. There was a table in front of Wenshen, and a small steam engine prototype was placed on the table. The workers looked at the steam engine in ignorance, feeling a lot of doubt. One of the strong men in their forties asked in confusion: "Boss, what is this thing for?"

Wenshen saw the man and knew him. The man was named Zhang Tielin, so he smiled and said, "This thing is the first machine to be produced by our machinery factory."

"Is the machine as powerful as the lathe in the factory?" The strong man remembered that when he first came into contact with the lathe, he was shocked. Speaking of this man, he was also a famous blacksmith in Yizhou. He had seen many kinds of equipment, but when he saw and used the lathe in the machinery factory, he refused to leave the machinery factory.

Wenshen saw that there was a kettle next to him, so he pointed to the kettle and asked, "Did you find anything when you boil water in a kettle?"

"Discover? I don't seem to have found anything. When the water blooms, it will splash with water." Zhang Tielin scratched his head and asked inquiring.

"I know." A young man whispered, "When the water blooms, the water splashes will overturn the lid of the pot."

Wenshen heard this and asked, "What's your name?" The young man felt a little embarrassed and said, "My name is Zhang Junbao." Zhang Tielin next to him bowed, "Boss, this is a dog. If there is something wrong, I hope the boss will forgive me."

Wen Shen smiled and said, "Junbao's answer is still interesting. But if you think about it, did Shuihua really turn over the lid of the pot?"

Zhang Junbao's eyes lit up and he said loudly: "Boss, I remember that once I only burned half a pot of water and overturned the lid of the pot. Then... was it that Bai Qi turned over the lid of the pot?"

"Yes, it's just that Bai Qi turned over the lid of the pot." Wen Shen smiled. This was the pot next to him was just open, so Wen Shen said to Zhang Junbao: "Junbao, go and block the spout with cloth to see what you find?"

"Good it." After saying that, Zhang Junbao stepped forward and blocked the spout with a rag. Not long after, he heard a "touch" sound, and the lid of the pot flew into the sky.

The sudden voice scared everyone to tremble. Wenshen smiled and said, "What do you think about what happened just now?"

"Funny..."

"interesting……"

Everyone discussed the dissatisfaction with their lips. Wen Shen frowned and looked at Zhang Junbao with some expectations. Zhang Junbao was also a smart person. Seeing this, he was a little unconfident and said: "Can you make a big pot and put the lid of the pot..., it's not right." Zhang Junbao felt that what he said was wrong and stopped.

"I have a good idea, I'll say it boldly, but it's okay if I say it wrong." Wen Shen said expectantly.

Zhang Junbao blushed a little and said, "Owner, I just thought, if something can be connected to the lid of the pot, can it be pushed?"

"Okay, not bad, it's good that you can think of this at a young age." Wenshen smiled, "Then, let's take a look at my small model now." After that, Wenshen lit the alcohol stove under the small boiler. Not long after, the steam engine slowly started, and the rapid movement of the cylinder led a wheel through the lever and rotated rapidly.

Everyone looked at the flywheel that was quickly turning, with an incredible expression on their faces, and at the same time, they exclaimed: "This, this is so simple, why didn't I think it was."

Wen Shen looked at everyone with a look of loss, regret, and frustration and smiled: "Don't be lost, you can only pay attention to every bit of life in the future, and you will find that technology is everywhere."

"Thank you for on-demand broadcast." Everyone thanked.

"Well, okay, now everyone is talking about where do you plan to use this steam engine if we can make a large scale?" Wenshen asked.

"Everyone, I see, all lathes can be driven by this...steam engine." Zhang Junbao snatched.

"Owner, you can make the kind of car you drive that you run by yourself."

"Owner, can be used on the loom"

...

Everyone was discussing the benefits of the steam engine with interest. Wenshen looked at everyone and thought, "I'm finally here." So he shouted happily: "Then, now give you the drawings of this steam engine, can you make them?"

Zhang Tielin replied: "Boss, don't worry, there are so many lathes here. If you can't make them, twist my head down and kick it as a ball."

In the next half month, Wenshen stayed in the machinery factory, studying and making steam engines together during the day, training workers at night, and basic physical principles such as atmospheric pressure, etc. Now among all workers, the quality and level of workers in the machinery factory are the highest, while the level of workers in the team that makes steam engines in the machinery factory is the highest, and Zhang Tielin and Zhang Junbao are particularly eye-catching in the group.

On that day, Wenshen stood next to a strange steam engine and asked, "Junbao, can this steam engine work?" Zhang Junbao said anxiously: "Our boss, no problem, absolutely no problem. I have already run it and it is very powerful."

The worker next to him also returned: "Owner, this thing is really useful, and it has a very powerful force. It can lift more than 3,000 kilograms of steel ingots through pulleys."

Wen Shen thought to himself that if he could lift more than 3,000 kilograms, he would have more than ten horsepower. He smiled and said, "Yes, ignite the fire and run it." Zhang Junbao was waiting for this moment of performance, so he hurriedly ignited the coke in the combustion chamber. Not long after, a stream of hot air was sprayed out from the pressure relief valve. Then, under Zhang Junbao's operation, the steam engine drove the wheels and started rotating rapidly.

Everyone behind him cheered when they saw this, Wen Shen also laughed and said, "Thank you all for the past half and a half months. Each person is rewarded with ten stakes, and one hind the pig's legs."

"Teacher!" The workers were even more excited when they heard that they were rewarded.

Taking advantage of everyone's happiness, Wenshen announced several appointment measures, appointing Zhang Tielin as the factory director and Zhang Junbao as the senior technician. In addition, more than 300 people in the machinery factory were divided into fifteen groups, five of which specialize in producing various steam engines, and the other ten groups produced various small machinery, such as water pumps, threshing machines, flour machines, looms, etc. Of course, the drawings of these machinery were downloaded by Wenshen from Modern Online. What the machinery factory had to do was to use electric motors and steam engines.

Each group has a group leader, deputy group leader and technician. When all appointments are completed, the promotion is very excited and the enthusiasm for learning is stronger. Because the factory will take the scientific examination once every six months, and if it fails, it will be demoted.
