Chapter 350 Improved steam locomotive
It has been a full five years in the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Huan was already twenty-eight years old this year.
During these five years, he has experienced too many things and learned a truth.
The imperial court's organizational structure is too large, the interests are too deeply involved, and there are too many worldly styles.
In terms of innovation, the vitality is too low.
If the first industrial revolution of the Song Dynasty was handed over to the court, it would be over.
As early as a year ago, Zhao Huan secretly asked someone to build a private manor here as his base among the people.
He wanted to personally support a trading company among the people, he wanted to put pressure on Tang Ke's business department, and he also put pressure on the Academy of Sciences.
He wanted to set some examples for the folk trading companies in the Song Dynasty to let them see hope.
Instead of everything being made bigger by the court.
Private trading companies also need strength, there is a game between the two sides and a symbiotic relationship.
No one knew that the emperor had started pushing something behind his back.
When Ye Chong created a steam locomotive that the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Song Dynasty could not have been created, and applied for a patent, and the Song Dynasty's laws were used as protection, this would be a considerable wealth.
This patent is under the name of Yongsheng Trading Company, and the name of Yongsheng Trading Company is Ye Chong.
Ye Chong couldn't do management or business, so Zhao Huan asked someone to help him.
Once a case of a person who has become a wealthy person by inventing new things, only those businessmen among the people will see huge business opportunities from inventions and creations and smell the smell of money.
That's why everything is not squeezed into the Royal Business School.
In this way, fortification talents will be pursued.
The Royal Business School experience will be released to develop high-end weapons in war and explore the underlying natural sciences.
Ye Chong said: "I only know a little about that steam locomotive."
"It's okay, I've prepared one and put it in the workshop. Please follow me!"
Zhao Huan stood up and took Ye Chong to the workshop behind him.
Ye Chong didn't expect that there was a workshop in this manor, which was really beyond his expectations.
This official Zhao looks gentle and gentle, and he is a scholar at first glance. How could he be interested in these things?
It's really strange!
The workshop in this manor is not small. After walking in, Ye Chong found that everything is made of, even steelmaking furnaces, and there are places to build swords and weapons.
Although each place is not big, it is complete in everything.
He thought about it and what did the old saying come from?
Although the sparrow is very small, it has internal organs on its belly.
He didn't know why this official Zhao made these things here, but as he grew up in a workshop since he was a child, it was particularly friendly here.
He was originally from Tokyo City to find a job, but he didn't expect to get here.
There was a steam locomotive staying in the open space of the workshop, exactly the same as what Ye Chong saw half a month ago.
I heard that there were only twenty cars in the Song Dynasty, which were from the East and West Stores in the Military Arts Supervision Bureau.
It cannot be owned by non-prime ministers or princes.
This official Zhao is not an ordinary person!
Ye Chong was thinking about these things in his mind.
"Brother Ye, I have a steam locomotive here. You can learn more about it and make improvements according to the plan you mentioned. Just tell Lao Qin that he will give you everything you want, anything you want."
Zhao Huan pointed at Qin Hui who was standing aside. Qin Hui hurriedly said to Ye Chong: "Young man needs anything, just tell me."
Although Ye Chong was born in a poor family, he still had some thoughts. After all, he came out of Tokyo and was unfamiliar with the place, so he was brought here.
This official Zhao gave him money and others. How could such a good thing happen in this world?
Zhao Huan saw Ye Chong's concerns and continued: "As long as we build steam locomotives, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, we can apply for patents. In the future, everyone who uses steam locomotives must give us money. Half of this money is yours and half of mine."
Ye Chong then realized that these businessmen were indeed like this.
He accepted this reason.
"I'll try."
"Okay, there is a trading company under my Yongsheng Trading Company called Huaxing. I will let Lao Qin turn you into the boss of Huaxing Trading Company and register with the Ministry of Commerce. The legal boss stipulated in the laws of the Song Dynasty, and the patents of steam locomotives are placed in Huaxing Trading Company."
Ye Chong had no idea of any trading company. He only knew that if he accomplished this, he would make a lot of money.
This alone made him very motivated.
After continuing to talk to Ye Chong for a while, Zhao Huan left and returned to the palace.
In the next few days, Ye Chong began to transform the steam engine.
Zhao Huan did not disturb him, but took the time to go to college with Shi Xun.
Because the university has now begun to offer a subject called physics, Zhao Huan really wants to know how well those students accept this course.
He has read the tutorials in physics, and they are basically two different concepts from later physics.
Current physics is only about the expression of phenomena and has not yet penetrated into the essence of things.
For example, why does heating deform iron? How to burn to the specific extent, iron will deform.
These are all experiences of the Academy of Sciences and have not given a clear temperature response.
Anyway, after this turn, Zhao Huan was quite disappointed.
But soon he recovered again, after all, he had traveled through time.
It was already a great improvement for the ancients to start understanding these things in books.
You can't eat anything in one go and become a fat man.
At least when the Academy of Sciences was manufacturing new weapons and steam engines, it began to think about the principle of leverage and mechanics, and summarized a lot of physics experience and began to convey it to universities.
After wandering around in college, Zhao Huan resisted the urge to give more suggestions.
He believes that all knowledge comes from practice.
And practice is guided by interests.
For example, the steam engine improved the production efficiency of the Song Dynasty. People will start to carefully study the steam engine, summarize the principles from all aspects, summarize them into theory, and convey them to books.
All he needs to do is to create more things like steam engines, and naturally someone will summarize theories and form knowledge.
After a while, the emperor came to the manor east of the city again. Ye Chong locked himself in the workshop all day long, and he was immersed in it.
Everyone else in the workshop cooperated with him to create what he wanted.
He tried many possibilities, and the force output from the steam engine was strengthened, but not obvious.
He also increased the coal burning area, continuously enhanced the firepower, improved the pistons, and continuously compressed the cylinders.
Finally, when the Chinese New Year was about to be celebrated, there was a qualitative leap.
At this time, more than two months have passed since the sales of steam locomotives from the Academy of Sciences.
The steam locomotive was completely reduced to a collection of goods and waste in Tokyo City, and no one would drive it to the streets of Tokyo City again.
However, on the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor suddenly ordered that if anyone could transform the steam locomotive and let the steam locomotive run smoothly, the court would reward 200,000 yuan!
As soon as the news came out, the entire Tokyo city began to talk a lot.
Chapter completed!
