Iron Dynasty

Bright eyes shine on the spacious streets of Qingzhou.

In the courtroom, he rejected the false petitions of King Yong and King Huainan to retire and return home. He and Qian Dafu went to Qingzhou University in a carriage in plainclothes.

This incident seems to have been caused by the officials, but there is obviously the support of King Yong and King Huainan behind it.

Now they are obviously very afraid, a strong emperor is undoubtedly a disaster for the vassal, so they will test Xiao Ming's attitude a little.

Xiao Ming didn't care about this episode, because for him, King Yong and King Huainan were not enough to be called a threat, and peaceful means could naturally resolve them.

Compared with this matter, what he likes most is the education of the Great Yu Country. Now that the Great Yu Country has entered the era of the steam industry, with this foundation and the corresponding technology, the Great Yu Country can move towards a better technology in terms of technology. high direction.

And the most important thing is that he is vaguely worried now. It will be seven years after he arrives in this world. There are still a few seven years in a person's life, and he does not want to leave regrets in another lifetime.

If the technology spar is not fully utilized, most of the technology in the technology spar will likely be buried with him, which is not what he wants to see, not to mention that the technology spar also contains black technology.

As a builder of civilization, it would be a bit of a failure to not fully realize the technology. Because of this consideration, he decided to improve the development of technology as soon as possible.

After all, the industrial foundation was poor in the past, and he was free of technology but could not realize it, but now all the conditions are mature, and the only difference is his scientific and technological knowledge.

After thinking about this all the way, the group arrived at Qingzhou University.

At this time, Chao Zhengwen was already waiting for him. As the chief culture and education officer of the Great Yu Kingdom, he had been working in the Ministry of Culture and Education next door to Qingzhou University.

Your Majesty, Lin Wentao, Lu Tong and a group of elite students are waiting for you in the university hall. Chao Zhengwen looked excited.

It has never happened that the emperors of all dynasties gave lectures in person. Their emperors set a precedent, which made their Ministry of Culture and Education shine.

Xiao Ming smiled. Now, the most outstanding students from Dayu Kingdom in the past seven years are concentrated in the academy. Now these students have mastered the basic science and technology theory, and it can be said that their scientific literacy is already very high.

Because of this, they could easily understand what he was saying.

It's so good, I have an idea. This academy will be renamed Tianzi Academy in the future. Only the most outstanding students can enter the academy. All students who attend classes in the academy are disciples of the Emperor. Xiao Ming told Chao Zhengwen. said.

It's a great honor to be able to listen to the emperor's teachings, and the old minister is also very envious. These students don't know how happy they are when they know it. Chao Zhengwen bowed and smiled.

Xiao Ming nodded and followed Chao Zhengwen to the academy, where more than 500 people were waiting for him.

Seeing Xiao Ming, the students in the school all stood up, bowed and said, See the emperor.

Stepping up to the podium, Xiao Ming leveled the tie and said, No ceremony, since we have entered the classroom, I and you should be masters and disciples, not monarchs and ministers. I hope you will not be afraid of seeking knowledge because of my esteem as an emperor.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Lin Wentao and Lu Tong looked at each other a little excitedly.

Although they were the best students of Qingzhou University, the two knew very well that they were nothing compared to Xiao Ming.

The ministers may revere the emperor because they fear the emperor, and they look up to him because of science.

On weekdays, they also liked to listen to Xiao Ming's lectures the most. Whenever there is something they don't understand, just a few words from Xiao Ming can make them suddenly realize.

More than 500 people were seated, and Xiao Ming said, It's still the old rules. I will answer the questions in detail this time about what you have learned.

Since a total of 500 people came to the school this time, and among these 500 people, their studies were mixed, so he could not give a unified lecture, and could only use the method of asking questions to answer their confusion in their studies, focusing on some difficulties. Detailed explanation.

As soon as he finished speaking, a student suddenly stood up and asked, Your Majesty, Caomin Su Liangcai has been conducting electricity studies. Now, with the help of the Minerals Department, Caomin has successfully completed the electric test using magnets and coils. Caomin thought that he used this principle. It is possible to develop a generator to generate electricity by turning the generator with the power of a steam engine, but at present, the grass-roots people still have a little doubt, that is, the magnets in the generator are not enough for the generator to generate enough current.

Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment. The first question surprised him a little. Seven years of modern education still surprised him a little. The knowledge level of many students can basically be equivalent to the modern technology of the 19th century.

He heard about this Su Liangcai from Lin Wentao last time, but now he is looking at it carefully, but he is also a gentleman.

I have to say that Xiao Ming is still looking forward to electricity, because once electricity is available, the entire society will undergo greater changes than the age of steam.

However, without the era of steam engines, it is impossible to transition to the era of electricity. The reason is very simple. As Su Liangcai said, this generator needs the power of steam engines to generate electricity, and this is also the basic principle of thermal power plants.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Ming said, Ordinary magnets are not yet capable of generating electricity in generators. What you need is rare earth magnets.

Rare earth magnets? Su Liang was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Ming smiled and said: Lin Wentao and I mentioned you, and I have always been very interested in your research. I didn't expect your progress to be so fast. In this case, I will let the Minerals Department find rare earth magnets as soon as possible, but now you can't. When I'm idle, I hope to see a whole set of generators before the rare earth magnets arrive.

Su Liangcai had a smile on his white face, he bowed and said, Yes, Your Majesty, Caomin will do his best.

Seeing this, the students showed envious expressions one after another, and being praised by the emperor showed that Su Liang was on the right track.

After Su Langcai, Lu Tong and Lin Wentao raised questions about chemistry and steam engines respectively. Among them, Lu Tong raised the problem of vulcanized rubber, while Lin Wentao raised the problem of three-expansion steam engines.

These two issues are also crucial to the current technological development of Dayu Kingdom. To mobilize the knowledge in the technological spar, he explained in detail the problems of preparing rubber and three-expansion steam engines for the two of them.

Under the action of the technology spar, the two seem to have experienced the manufacturing process of rubber and triple expansion steam engines, and some technical difficulties have gradually become clear.

After the three people asked questions one after another, the classroom suddenly became lively, and every student asked questions enthusiastically. Although Xiao Ming couldn't help laughing at some of the questions, he explained it in detail.

However, relatively speaking, many of these questions are still valuable, and from the questions he also learned about the current development of science and technology in Qingzhou.

In general, the substances in the periodic table of elements are basically verified by the students, and some chemical elements such as cobalt, manganese, and boron are no longer a symbol on the books.

The answer started at ten in the morning and lasted until three in the afternoon before Xiao Ming returned. In addition, Xiao Ming also personally participated in the experiment to promote the development of science and technology. He was really ashamed of being left behind by the West on the premise of spar.
