My Daming New Empire

Zhu Zhanji nodded when the temperature of the bottle dropped. At this time, Ma Di untied the string on the duck intestine.

Everyone saw that the water in the water bottle automatically flowed into the gas cylinder, and after about one-fifth of it flowed in, it stopped flowing.

At this time, Zhu Zhanji said again: "Do you see anything now?"

Everyone looked in a daze and didn't understand what Zhu Zhanji meant, so of course they wouldn't come out to make a fool of themselves.Only Madi said: "The burning air is about one-fifth of this bottle. Because one-fifth of the air is burned, about one-fifth of the air will be sucked into this empty bottle because of the air pressure." water."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, and asked again: "I don't know if you have ever pulled out the cupping pot? Why can the cupping pot be sucked tightly on the person after the cupping pot is burned? It is because after part of the air is burned, a part of the inside is missing. The air, the pressure changes inside and outside, so the cupping can is sucked on the person."

He took a deep breath and said, "Our bodies have air outside and air inside, so we are used to this environment. We cannot survive in the water, and fish in the water cannot survive on the shore."

Everyone still didn't pay attention to what Zhu Zhanji wanted to express, but Zhu Zhanji was not in a hurry, after everyone had carefully observed the bottle.He said again: "This experiment tells us that the air that can be burned accounts for about one-fifth. We don't know whether this part of the air has other functions, but if someone can find a way to separate this part of the air , and inject this air into the steelmaking furnace, what will happen?"

At this moment, everyone understood and began to chatter.

Zhu Zhanji never thought that pure oxygen could be decomposed at this time, but as long as 50.00% oxygen can be obtained, the temperature of the steelmaking furnace can be increased by at least two hundred degrees.

Zhu Zhanji is completely ignorant of this aspect. He can only hope that such an experiment will attract more people's interest and allow them to develop ideas in this regard.

Chemical experiments are almost untouched in this era, because everyone pays attention to things that can be seen and touched.

In addition, this country has worshiped Confucianism and restrained work for more than 1000 years, and even the study of things is a strange skill, let alone this discipline.

If it weren't for ink, printing and dyeing, and Taoist alchemy would apply this knowledge.There are tens of millions of people in the entire Ming Dynasty, and it is difficult to find a few people who have researched in this area.

It is impossible for Zhu Zhanji to change the social atmosphere quickly. He can only use his hobbies to influence the people around him.

Madi is such a seed, this interesting experiment can attract more people to explore the unknown in nature.

Although the temperature of 1000 to [-] degrees cannot completely melt the molten steel, it can already make steel. Although the pursuit of raising the furnace temperature is urgent, it is not in a hurry.

The popularization of these basic knowledge will be easier only if more people are interested in the whole industry.

He suddenly had an idea. Before this expedition, he compiled a Ming edition children's science book called "One Hundred Thousand Whys".

The more he thinks about it, the more he thinks it should be, but if he wants to be reasonable, the period of time is a bit too tight, so let Sun Lin and the others collect more materials first, and then choose when he comes back.

At this time, Ma Di turned into Xiangmomo again, surrounded by a large group of people asking about various knowledge about stress.

He is not stage-frightened either, and he speaks out what he has to say.Because of his young age, he has won praise from many people.

It is not enough to finish one experiment, and others are preparing for the second experiment, and want to test it again to see if the result will be the same.

Some people also asked what the test about atmospheric pressure was like, but because the iron balls that met Zhu Zhanji's requirements were not made, this test cannot be carried out for the time being.

When they see that two semicircular iron balls are joined together and the air is drawn out, it will become difficult to separate, and they must have a fuller understanding of the pressure.

There was a commotion outside, and then Meng Liang, a young supervisor of the ceremonial supervisor Zhu Zhanji knew, shouted loudly: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is urgent, please come to Jinshen Palace to discuss matters!"

Everyone stopped talking and looked at Zhu Zhanji.Zhu Zhanji took two steps towards the door, and saw Meng Liang had already run in.

He knelt on the ground, holding a royal pen in Zhu Di's study in his hand, and said: "Your Majesty's imperial edict, His Highness Taisun is in the palace to discuss matters."

"What happened?"

Meng Liang glanced around, but didn't speak.Zhu Zhanji also knew that he was reckless in asking, there are hundreds of officials from the Ministry of Industry here, how could he tell what happened in Jinshen Palace.

He turned around and ordered: "Everyone, if you intend to do this kind of experiment, as long as the reason is right, I will distribute research funds for research. Chen Langzhong, anyone who is willing to do research, you can't stop it, and report to Gu. I'm not afraid of your money. Money, I'm afraid the money won't go out."

"Yes, I will obey your orders."

After leaving the yard, while Li Liang and the others were leading the horses, Zhu Zhanji asked again: "What happened?"

"Two things. One is that the negotiating team headed by Jin Shangshu arrived in Dongying, but was blocked in Nagasaki. It seems that Dongying is determined to oppose my Ming Dynasty this time. With support, they captured Nakiren City of the Beishan Kingdom, Pan Anzhi, the head of the Beishan Kingdom who was close to Dongying, killed himself in the city, and Beishan perished."

Ryukyu is just the name of later generations. Now Ryukyu still belongs to three countries, namely Zhongshan Country, Beishan Country, and Shannan Country.

Among the three countries, Zhongshan Kingdom is the most powerful. Shang Bazhi was originally named Bazhi. He was close to Ming Dynasty and was given the surname Shang. He was also the founder of the first Shang Dynasty in Ryukyu.

In the future Ryukyu, until it was annexed by Dongying, the Shang family was in charge of power.

Zhu Zhanji knew that Jin Shangshu and the others had made things difficult for them in Dongying. Obviously Dongying refused to talk about it, which also declared that the war was about to break out.

Thanks to Libra~Xi Shepherd Brothers for the three rewards, there will definitely be more rewards tomorrow.At the same time, thank you for the super cowardly hair ball, see people with lights, Da Sui Zhang Degong, enjoy it differently, I spit on you, Zhongnan’s reward, thank you everyone

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Ming Palace, Jinshen Hall.

In the palace divided into two floors, the furious Zhu Di sat on the top, and there were two rows of single seats on the left and right sides of the bottom, lined up one by one.

This is not a formal court hall, but a place where Zhu Di handles official duties.Most of the people who come here to report work are the chief officers of various departments, and the last one is also an adjutant.Therefore, not only can each minister have a seat, but there is also a table in front of each person, where official documents can be placed.

When it comes to festivals, Zhu Di sometimes gives small-scale banquets in the palace, and they are all arranged here.

Zhu Zhanji met Wang Yan who was waiting anxiously at the door. Seeing Zhu Zhanji, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and said, "His Highness is finally back. His Majesty was furious when he heard that Jin Shangshu had been humiliated." , but also to personally conquer Dongpu himself!"

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to convince him."

Zhu Di was getting older, and apart from the occasional rheumatoid arthritis that tormented his body, other aspects were pretty good.

As long as you don't get sick, you still have to eat two big bowls of rice for a meal, and you can draw three stone bows.

Compared with him, Prince Zhu Gaochi's health is even more worrying, especially this time during the Lantern Festival, his body was damaged and he still hasn't recovered.

Seeing Zhu Zhanji enter the hall, Fang Bin, Minister of the Ministry of War, who was sitting first on the right hand side, couldn't help showing a smile. His Majesty wanted to conscript himself, and no one dared to stop him, and only his grandson could persuade him.

After entering the palace, Zhu Zhanji didn't look sideways, knelt down on one knee in front of the steps, and said loudly, "Grandson Zhanji pays respects to the emperor's grandfather."

Although in front of many important officials in the court, Zhu Zhanji didn't mention his official position, but only talked about his grandfather and grandson.

This is also Zhu Zhanji's privilege. No matter who he is, including the prince Zhu Gaochi, he only dares to call himself a minister.

Although everyone knew that Zhu Zhanji's behavior was inconsistent with etiquette, since Zhu Di did not correct it, naturally no one wanted to make fun of him.

As an emperor, it is a lonely family, a family of ordinary people, it is common for father and son to meet each other, and children and grandchildren are around their knees.

But in this palace, apart from Zhu Zhanji, the other grandchildren can only see Zhu Di during the holidays.

Even the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi wanted to see Zhu Di on weekdays, except during court meetings.

Although he is powerful in the world and has power all over the world, besides the profession of emperor, he is also an individual.

Zhu Di raised his hand and said, "Look at the seat, and have a look at Jin Shangshu's memorial with your grandson."

The two eunuchs lifted a chair and placed it in front of Zhu Dilong's couch on the right. Zhu Zhanji got up, went up the nine steps, sat down on the chair, and read the memorial that Wang Yan handed over.

This time the mission to Dongying was headed by Jin Chun, the Right Minister of the Ministry of Rites, which represented that the Ming Empire was first and foremost a country of etiquette.
