Datang started from being a salted fish

Chapter 629 The Influence of Technology on Datang
He knew the student in front of him, his name was Wang Qiming.

Speaking of which, the name Qiming was changed by the student himself. In his opinion, Qiming represents the arrival of day, and day often implies hope.

In his opinion, being able to study in the fairy school now represents his future hope!

Of course, such a thing as changing the name must be approved by the family, otherwise I am afraid that the leg will be interrupted. . .

When he told his family about his idea of ​​changing his name and the implication of the name Qiming, the family was naturally extremely satisfied: Look, it’s different after going to school!What you say makes sense!
And this Wang Qiming is also really smart: the teacher can basically understand what he said once, and he can use it flexibly after reading the book. He is born to learn!
For such a worry-free student, which teacher would not like it?
What's more, Li Tai himself is a top student, and when a top student faces another top student, there is always a little bit of heroic sympathy. . .

After all, the school environment is still very simple at the moment. These children come here to learn things, and the kind of intrigue among top students has not yet appeared. . .

"Mr. Li..." This student named Qiming was really too shy, even now when he spoke to Li Tai alone, he seemed a little reserved.

Speaking of which, he should have called His Highness Li Tai the King of Wei, but Li Tai forced them to call Teacher Li: firstly, since he is now a teacher, it is more appropriate to call him Teacher; secondly, he is his grandpa. He already let others call him the principal, but if he still calls himself His Highness the King of Wei, it would be too unreasonable. . .

"If you have any questions, feel free to speak up." Seeing the student's shyness and restraint, Li Tai had no choice but to encourage him: "As long as the teacher can help you, he will definitely help."

Seeing that this student was even more shy than the little girl, Li Tai couldn't help but miss his beautiful imperial sister: This little girl is eccentric, but she is much easier to get along with than this Wang Qiming. . .

"Just now... I saw that saltpeter can make ice from a tree..." He couldn't help looking at Li Tai expectantly at this point: "Is this true..."

Speaking of this kind of thing, if he goes home and experiments, he will definitely get the answer immediately, but for a top student like him, he can't wait to go home and test again. . .

"Saltpeter to make ice..." Li Tai recalled after hearing the words: "There is indeed such an experiment, what's wrong?"

"That's great!" Hearing what Li Tai said, Wang Qiming's face was filled with excitement: "Then, wouldn't there be ice cubes for summer in the future!"

"Isn't there free ice cubes here at our school..." Li Tai stopped suddenly after speaking halfway.

Yes, it is true that the school has free ice cubes every day, but these students do not have them at home!

From this point of view, it is necessary to quickly popularize this matter: Although I have no idea about the throne now, it is not a bad thing if it can make people's lives better, isn't it?Anyway, it's just a casual thing.

"Then...Mr. Li...can I tell my family this?" Although he was sure that saltpeter ice making was true, he still didn't dare to make decisions without authorization.

After all, these things are seen from books, and these books belong to the school.

Before Li Tai nodded, he was not sure whether he could tell his family. . .

"Of course you can." Li Tai replied with a smile: "Immortals run this school to let you learn knowledge to apply it."

"Thank you, Teacher Li." Wang Qiming's face burst into joy when he heard the words, and he quickly thanked Li Tai.

After dismissing Wang Qiming, Li Tai went straight to Li Yuan's office: Since he planned to promote this matter, he naturally wanted to find himself, the emperor's grandfather.Although he didn't care about his prestige among the common people, Li Tai knew clearly that his grandpa was very keen on such things. . .

After learning about this, Li Yuan immediately agreed with Li Tai's method of promoting saltpeter ice making, and held a school-wide meeting to assign the promotion task to these students in the school.

Although he is not an emperor now, he was an emperor after all, and Li Yuan would naturally not refuse such a thing as gaining the reputation of the common people.

After the meeting, Li Yuandang even gave the students two days off, and each of them took back a few pieces of saltpeter when they left. . .

Li Tai couldn't say much about his grandpa's behavior except helplessness, although it's not the time for the holiday, but let him go.

After dealing with all this, Li Yuan ordered people to go to Chang'an City to convey the matter of making ice with saltpeter to the people of history: Although Li Yuan is indeed very keen on things like gaining the reputation of the people, but in the land of Lantian County Tossing is over.After all, it is Li Shimin who is now the emperor, and it is better to leave it to him, the real emperor, to improve the reputation of the people in other places.
Bar. . . . . .

Speaking of it, it was a coincidence. Although Li Shimin had popularized the method of making ice with saltpeter, he hadn't reached Shangshui Village yet, so Li Yuan thought Li Shimin didn't know. . .

Royal Palace
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment when he heard the news from his father, and was immediately afraid: I didn't expect that there was a book in Wang Yin's school that recorded such a thing. No wonder Wang Yin was so generous back then. . .Fortunately, I wisely chose to promote it at the beginning, otherwise I am afraid that I have not made much money and the reputation of the common people will not be able to be improved. . .

After being frightened, Li Shimin fell into deep thought again, because through this incident, he suddenly discovered some of his previous misconceptions about the knowledge taught at Wang Yin School. . .

In the past, Li Shimin once thought that those students could be regarded as advanced craftsmen after learning this knowledge, but now it seems that it is not so simple!

Let’s talk about making ice with saltpeter. If it was put in the past, it would be feasible to use it to pretend to be a magic stick or something: the condensation of water in summer is not the same as fairy art!
Thinking about those hot air balloons and aircrafts that Wang Yin created before, they have realized the ultimate wish of human beings to fly into the sky for thousands of years. . .

In Wang Yin's words, all of these were created with that scientific knowledge, which shows that this scientific knowledge is simply not ordinary magic and powerful!

In the past, those hot air balloons, aircrafts, etc. are really far away from people's daily life. After all, no one will always fly in the sky when nothing is wrong, right?

But look at the current saltpeter ice making and air conditioning and so on, this has really changed life drastically!

The influence of technology has begun to be reflected in people's daily life!
As for whether the students in the school can be regarded as craftsmen after they complete their studies, Li Shimin doesn't think it is important anymore. Li Shimin can't imagine what earth-shaking changes will happen in the Tang Dynasty in the future!

After all, the bright lights at night and the spacious and solid road that Wang Yin mentioned at the beginning have already appeared. The electric lights and concrete road at this moment have already proved this very well. . .

Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but think again of the thing called cannonball that Wang Yin mentioned back then: just press a button lightly, and you can sit at home and raze the Turks to the ground. . .

In the past, Li Shimin would only listen to the excitement at most: After all, this kind of thing is so unimaginable that you don't even dare to think about it, okay? !
But now Li Shimin is a little bit convinced. . .

Although I don't know when the cannonball will be fiddled with, but at least I see hope, don't I?
Of course, Li Shimin didn't mean to wait for the cannonballs to come out before dealing with the Turks: Although he didn't know when the cannonballs would be made, Li Shimin believed that it would be impossible in just a few years.And Li Shimin can't wait that long to solve the Turkic matter!
What Li Shimin was thinking about was the future conception of the empire that never sets in the Tang Dynasty.

If there is such a thing as cannonballs, it will be much easier to realize the empire that never falls in Tang Dynasty!
We must know that such a matter that the Tang Dynasty will never fall to the empire will definitely not be able to unfold in just a few years. Maybe the shell will come out by then? !

Li Shimin fell into a crooked situation here and couldn't help himself, and Li Chengqian started to be dazed when he saw the ice cubes in the room in the East Palace. . .

At this moment, Li Chengqian's room was almost full of ice cubes. Looking at the room full of ice cubes, Li Chengqian felt like he was dreaming. . .

Although the imperial palace definitely can afford ice cubes in summer, affordable and casual use are two completely different concepts. . .

After all, the palace is so big, there are too many people inside!

What's more, his father usually took out some ice cubes to reward those ministers and officials, so the cost of the ice cubes became even more tense.

Logically speaking, no matter how nervous he is, Li Chengqian, the crown prince, should not be short of ice cubes, right?

After all, he is the crown prince, the heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty, and it is very likely that he will inherit the throne in the future!

But the fact is just the opposite: just because he is a prince, he has to lead by example, so Li Chengqian gets less ice cubes than other princes and princesses, in order to prevent him from seeking pleasure. . .

But now I was told that ice cubes can be used at will. All you need is water and some small saltpeter, and there is an inexhaustible supply of ice cubes to use. . .

"Sure enough, only Brother Yin, an immortal, can do this kind of thing..." In the end, Li Chengqian had to say with emotion: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Brother Yin for a long time..."

Li Chengqian could have guessed that the saltpeter ice making was brought up by Wang Yin, and it was true that he hadn't seen Wang Yin for a long time.

He wanted to go, but ever since Wang Yin put forward the idea of ​​an empire on which the sun never sets, his position as the crown prince became unbreakable. Unless he gave up by himself, he would inherit the throne in the future as a certainty. . .

This caused him to be overwhelmed by the study tasks Li Shimin assigned him every day, and leaving the palace became a luxury. . .

Also looking at the room full of ice cubes with emotion was his sister Li Lizhi, Princess of Changle.

Looking at the ice cubes all over the room, this little girl is going crazy with joy!
Although Li Shimin loved her very much in the past, Li Lizhi's ice cubes were obviously much more than those of other princes and princesses every summer, but it was not to the extent that he could enjoy it casually!

"Brother Yin is really amazing and amazing..." The little girl couldn't help but sigh when she saw the ice cubes all over the room.

But her emotion was not just because of the ice cube.
