[Red Mansion] Adopted daughter and child

When the steam engine was first created, it was not only bulky, but also unable to be directly applied to other tools, such as ships and trains, so it did not attract much attention.

It was not until the appearance of the first steam water extraction machine that the steam engine began to receive attention.

However, the steam engine at this time had a single function, poor universality, and the consumption of coal was terrible, so there was no way to spread it to other places.

But all these shortcomings were seen by Watt.

Watt is a very patient genius. After he discovered the shortcomings of the steam engine, he spent more than 20 years concentrating on experiments and research, and finally succeeded in making an industrial steam engine.

—that is, the steam engine that we later widely used in smelting, weaving and other machine drives.

This kind of industrial steam engine can not only be widely used in various fields, but also consumes less coal than the previous machines, and the key point is that the efficiency is at least three times higher than the previous steam engines.

Because of Watt's improved industrial steam engine, the European economy developed rapidly.

Of course, the improvement of steam engines will not stop. After that, many people have improved more steam engines with different functions on the basis of Watt's improved industrial steam engines: for example, for driving ships, for land transportation, etc. transporting, transporting...

The emergence of these steam engines with different effects made the European economy develop more rapidly, which in turn led to the outbreak of the first industrial revolution.

……

It is a pity that the steam engine that Jia Qiang brought back from abroad is the original version.

This is why Lin Liu has nothing to do with this steam engine. In the middle of the 21th century, the steam engine has largely withdrawn from the stage of history. By the end of the [-]th century and the beginning of the [-]st century, the steam engine had basically disappeared from people's lives.

It is rare to see, and today's steam engine is still the original version before improvement...

It's good that Lin Liu can recognize that it's a steam engine, and it's too difficult to improve it into a familiar one.

Unless she learns physics from scratch, and learns to invent designs.

It's a pity that Lin Liu didn't have the chance to do it even if he wanted to.

Fortunately, Jia Qiang brought her back so many powerful people, and Mao Shou, a genius who is very interested in science and good at improvement and invention, is there.

After discovering that Maoshou was staring at the steam engine, and was directly addicted to it, he had no intention of talking to other people unless he studied it thoroughly.

Seeing this, the other bosses also became quite interested in this steam engine.

Almost everyone gathered around the steam engine, wanting to see what happened.Except for a very small number of bigwigs who study astronomy and chemistry, who really have no interest in steam engines, the others are almost all obsessed with steam engines after hearing Lin Liu's improvement prospects.

A group of geniuses worked together, but within a few months, the steam engine, which was originally useless, was improved to have a preliminary water-lifting function.

After a few more months, this group of people actually improved some of the functions of the Watt steam engine on the basis of the original steam engine——

Why do you know?Because Lin Liu had seen a model of a Watt steam engine before!

Although it is not the complete body of Watt's steam engine, seeing that this group of people has successfully developed a part of Watt's more than 20 years of research in just a few months, the progress is gratifying. It won't be long.

For this reason, Lin Liu happily gave each big boss who participated in improving the steam engine a flat for each person.

With the house in hand, the research enthusiasm of these bigwigs is getting higher and higher.

It didn't take long for the role of the Watt steam engine to be half out.

Lin Liu: Surprise!

It's a pity that the improvement of the steam engine fell into a bottleneck here. Lin Liu went to inspect it almost every day, but Mao Shou and others made no progress after that.

Lin Liu himself doesn't mind, after all, it took Watt more than 20 years to complete the improvement. Even if you group of bigwigs work together, it is impossible not to encounter any difficulties. You can directly pass all the way and complete the improvement of the entire steam engine extremely smoothly. no?

So she still went to report every day, not to speed up, but just to see the problems they encountered, whether she knew about them, and to give them an idea by insinuating.

But what Lin Liu didn't expect was that his daily reports made Mao Shou and others feel a lot of pressure, and many people became emotionally unstable because of this, and occasionally even had quarrels.

Maoshou has a simple personality, so he went straight to Lin Liu when he saw this: "Sister, don't come to the Ministry of Industry recently, you come here all day, I'm fine, I'm used to it anyway. But every time other people see you, they feel very frustrated With guilt and guilt, many people are emotionally unstable, unable to calm down and think seriously."

Lin Liu was taken aback: "I was just strolling around, and I didn't talk to them, and I didn't urge them, did I?"

Maoshou scratched his head: "But you are their food and clothing parent. You show up every day, even if you don't ask for a reminder, it still makes people feel a lot of pressure. They are very worried that if they can't solve the problem, they will be driven back to their country by you. "

Those bigwigs have been in the capital for a long time. They are already used to the life in the capital, and because the environment here is relaxed, they can research whatever they want. If the research results are achieved, they can also get money and material rewards ...

The lifelong wish is to study what they like, and they hope to dedicate their whole lives to it. After living in the capital for so long, they are completely happy.

Even if the only regret is that their wives, children and family members, Lin Liu has promised that once their wives, children and family members agree, they will be taken to live in Huaxia.

In that case, who would want to go back?

Lin Liu was taken aback after hearing this, and then couldn't laugh or cry——

I didn't expect that I could also experience it, when I was awed by these real bosses who may have left a strong mark on me in the entire history of mankind, as my parents.

Needless to say, it's quite a sense of accomplishment!

Lin Liu smiled: "Since you all feel that it is too stressful for me to go there every day, I will not go there until you get the results of the research, and you can study at ease. Don't be too aggressive, I know it is difficult, you guys Even if I want to study it for ten or twenty years, I won’t take it to heart, don’t put too much pressure on it.”

For ten or twenty years, she could still afford to wait.

Maoshou chose to come here, but he may not be under pressure.After Lin Liu's words came out of his mouth, he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had let go of some heavy burden.

Lin Liu understood, and couldn't help but raised his hand and snorted his hair: "Don't think too much, you are already very good. If I had your talent, I would have hid myself under the covers and snickered."

These words are so graphic, Maoshou couldn't help laughing just thinking of the picture of Lin Liu hiding in the bed and laughing.

The two siblings talked for a while, and Maoshou returned to the Ministry of Industry.

After Lin Liu and the others left, they shrugged, picked up the memorial and began to read it.

After a long period of time, Lin Liu did not go to the Ministry of Industry once.

In her spare time, she went directly to the women's school.

——Besides the palace, the women's school should be the safest place for Lin Liu. If she couldn't hold back and wanted to go out, she would usually go to the women's school.

After women were allowed to take part in the imperial examination, and after the first provincial examination and palace examination ended, the women's school serving women's imperial examination has completely entered everyone's sight and gained unprecedented attention.

If it weren't for the women's school that only recruited female students, I'm afraid that many men who want to advance on the road of imperial examinations will also sign up to join it.

Women's studies are very famous, but such a reputation has nothing to do with women——

All I can say is that the students in the female school are so smart, the teachers are great, and the principal is well managed.

But the whole society will not think that girls are no worse than men, as long as they are given a chance, they can also exert the same strength as men.

It's not that the common people are stupid or anything, it's just that the girls who pass the exam today, even if their family backgrounds are now in ruins, their previous family backgrounds are absolutely good.

In other words, they are all children of rich families.

Many people hold the status of the rich very high, and always feel that what they do should be taken for granted. Except for a very small number of people, most of them will only think that even if they get the same opportunity, they can't do it. It is absolutely impossible to achieve the same achievements as them.

This kind of thinking is also directly reflected in the two girls' schools.

Even though the women's school for imperial examinations has become famous, there are still very few ordinary families who send their daughters to study in the former enlightenment school.

Of course, there is patriarchal thought among them, but many people feel that their daughters will never be able to compare with those rich ladies, and it is impossible to read through school, so even if the school does not charge tuition fees in the first year, No one is willing to send their children to study.

Lin Liu was not in a hurry about this situation. After all, those girls who were really enlightened by the school, after several years of hard study, had already come to the end of the exam.

Yes, Tongsheng.

Even the smartest little girls still have to wait two years to be admitted as a scholar, but there are more than enough students for children.

When Lin Liu arrived, Song Min was talking with a little girl.

The little girl was only seven or eight years old, but her eyes were determined, she was more mature and stable than many adults, like a little adult.

Lin Liu stood at the door and waited for Song Min to finish talking with the little girl before knocking on the door.

Seeing Lin Liu, Song Min subconsciously wanted to kneel down, but she raised her hand to stop her.

Lin Liu asked Jin Qiu and the others to stay outside the door, walked in front of the little girl by himself, glanced at her with a smile, and asked, "What's your name? Are you also a student who is going to take the child's exam this time?"

The little girl had never met Lin Liu before, but she could easily see the principal's respect for Lin Liu by observing her words, so she replied sullenly, "Master, my name is Yu Yun, and I have signed up for this county examination. If If you pass the county test, you will also apply for the government test."

After the government examination is over, you will be a person with the fame of Tongsheng.

Lin Liu smiled and patted the little girl's head: "It's amazing, I wish you a successful start and take the lead!"

Yu Yun pursed his lower lip, showing a faint smile: "Thank you, my lord."

Lin Liu and Song Min still had business to discuss, so they asked Yu Yun to leave Song Min's office first.

After the little girl left, Lin Liu looked at Song Min: "How many people signed up for the county exam this time? How many are sure to pass the exam?"

The number of students in the children's examination is not as strict as that of the college examination and the rural examination. Most of the time, it is not the number of candidates that need to be admitted in this session, but a fraction of all candidates.The more candidates there are, the more people will be admitted.

For the little girls who have been working very hard in the female school, the more places they are admitted, the greater their hope of being admitted.

Song Min gave Lin Liu a simple salute with a smile, and then she answered: "This county exam, as long as there are girls who have a hope of passing the exam, they all signed up. They say they have been taking exams in school, but they have never taken the exam. The real county test, I want to try the water and experience what the county test is like."

"So far, the number of applicants has reached 32." Song Min thought of those children with a gentle face, "Among them, there are [-] girls who have an [-]% or higher chance of being admitted to Tongsheng, and eight girls who have a [-]% or higher chance of being admitted to Tongsheng. , and the remaining four have only [-]% hope of passing the exam."

The hope of passing the entrance examination is only less than [-]%, which basically means that the county examination has basically failed.In order not to dampen the girl's self-confidence, even if someone wanted to sign up, Song Min tried to persuade them and rejected them.

Lin Liu was very surprised. There were only about a hundred students in this school, and now one-third of them have signed up, and according to Song Min's words, it seems that there is still a great hope of passing the exam.

Song Min smiled: "Most of the time, girls from poor families enroll in women's schools in order to have a bite to eat. In order to be free of board and lodging fees every year, and for the preferential treatment of the top few in each exam, these girls study It seems to work harder than those students in Jian Huizhen's school. Two of them have very good qualifications, like Yu Yun who just went out, and her current level can pass the examination for scholar."

Smart and hardworking, progress is always faster than the average person.

Lin Liu smiled: "Then are they going to sign up?"

Song Min shook her head: "If you enter Jian Huizhen's school, you can't say whether you will be able to take the top exams in the future. They have a plan in their hearts and decide to study for another three years. They will take the college entrance examination when they have accumulated enough. Another school has the ability to compete with others."

For a moment, Lin Liu wanted to exempt these girls from their tuition, board and lodging fees, but quickly dismissed the idea.

Without these carrots hanging in front of them, these girls don't know if they would work so hard.

The things they have are less than others. If they don't work hard, they will only return to mediocrity in the future, just like their mothers, who work hard for their natal family, husband's family, and children all their lives day after day.

Song Min didn't know what Lin Liu was thinking, she was still talking about those cute children.

It can be seen that Song Min really likes children very much.

While talking, Song Min suddenly mentioned: "My daughter's child is now five years old. She is a little girl. She doesn't know how to teach children, so she found me." She looked at Lin Liu nervously. , "So I want to ask, is it possible for my granddaughter to go to school?"

Lin Liu thought for a while, then nodded: "Yes. But you must keep an eye on the other party, and you can't be special. If I hear something, not only will that child be kicked out, but you will also be replaced as the principal."

Song Min breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, your majesty, my daughter and granddaughter are very quiet and gentle."

It's just that her daughter is an embarrassing status as the princess of the former royal family. Even if she wanted to ask a female gentleman to teach her daughter, no one would be willing.What's more, the daughter's life is not as good as before, and the relationship with her husband is becoming more and more tense, and she can't afford enough money to invite a female gentleman to sit at home.

It would be great to come to school to study.

Lin Liu nodded, and then asked about the life of the other children in the school, and if there was anything missing, just write it down.

She didn't stay outside for a long time. After leaving this girls' school, she went to another school to take a look. After asking about the missing things in the school, she ordered people to send the things to the two schools after returning to the palace. female studies.

Time passed by, and soon it was time for the county examination.

Compared with these exams such as the college examination and the township examination, the county examination, as the first hurdle of the imperial examination, has received very little attention. Except for some people who like to watch the excitement, and those who happen to have scholars at home who sign up for this county examination, basically Not many people pay attention to the registration and results release of the county test.

After all, in the capital city, there are too many exams, large and small, every year.

But this time the county test caught everyone's attention——

Because after the results were released, everyone discovered that there were as many as [-] female candidates among the candidates who signed up for the county test.

What is even more frightening is that all the fifty female candidates were on the list.

Although some people's rankings are very low, such a result still makes those who are paying attention to this county test call it impossible.Some of them were extreme and even made troubles in Jingzhao Mansion.

After Jingzhaofu Yin learned of this, he only felt a pain in his forehead.

However, fraud in the imperial examination is a major case, and even if it is just a county examination, it must be reported to the court, and then the truth will be strictly investigated.

The truth is actually very simple, no one cheats.

But those people simply didn't believe that so many female candidates applied, but all of them were admitted by their own ability.

Although the results of female candidates have always been exaggerated, even in the previous provincial examinations, some people also failed.

How could it be possible that all the female candidates who signed up were on the list?

No one believed the result.

When the news reached Lin Liu's ears, she was also taken aback.

After careful questioning, I found out that there were extraordinarily many candidates for the county test this time.Usually, the number of candidates who registered for the county examination was as high as two hundred, but this time, I don't know what stimulated them. Anyway, the number of candidates who registered was extremely large, directly doubling to 420 three.

This is just a county test.

Most of the civil and military officials were killed in the county examination. Of course, it is clear how many people sign up for the general county examination, and it is even more clear how bizarre this data is.

Compared with the results of those female candidates, civil and military officials are more interested in this data.

However, ordinary people still have to respond to their doubts about the test results.

Lin Liu's response to this questioning was to have everyone's answer sheets packaged and placed directly at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion. Anyone who has any objection to the test results can go to Jingzhao Mansion to apply for a review. Check.

After the promulgation of such a measure, the gate of Jingzhao Mansion was crowded with people for a while.

When the crowd subsided, other people's doubts about the exam naturally became smaller.

But because the exam at this time is not based on a grading system, there are still a small group of people who are not convinced by this result. Anyway, they just don’t believe that so many female candidates have not failed the exam.

These people didn't dare to slander the examiners and the court, so they directly pointed their finger at the little girls who were on the list this time. All of them had dirty mouths and their words were dirty and smelly.

Lin Liu was very angry when she learned about this, so after discussing with Lin Ruhai and others, she directly took a copy of the scoring standards and handed them over to the county examination examiners of this session, and asked them to re-mark all the examination papers strictly according to the standards.

The examiners of this year's county examination have been trembling since the incident happened, fearing that the emperor will think that they are not good at doing things and will take off the black hat on his head.

But the emperor not only did not pursue the matter, but also directly put all the examination papers in Jingzhao Mansion for people to check, and indirectly solved the problem for them.

At that moment, all the examiners breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought that after I could check the examination papers, the doubts outside would disappear——

After all, the examination papers are clearly laid out there. As long as you have eyes, you can see whether you are excellent or not. Do you need other answers?

They thought that although they had their own preferences when grading the papers, the examiners' preferences were not uniform. Even if there was some room for adjustment in the final results, there was absolutely no problem in the general direction.

All examiners have a clear conscience!

But who would have thought that the exam papers were almost torn apart, yet there were still people who questioned it?

When the examiners knew about this, their brains grew bigger.

They knew very well how much the emperor attached importance to the imperial examination and those female candidates, and they were very worried that if the matter was not handled well, they might really be implicated by those outside who clamored for unfairness this time.

Before the grading system and grading standards came out, the group of examiners had been terrified. Whenever they saw an unknown official walking towards them, they were worried that the other party would tell them bad news or directly read the imperial decree of the emperor's dismissal.

After being in panic for a long time, the spirit of this group of examiners has already been tense to the extreme. When the equal score standard appeared in their hands, they completely forgot about their bullshit preferences.

What is the scoring standard, they are meticulous, so serious that they strictly follow the standard, and re-marked all the test papers.

After the scores came out, the rankings were re-ranked, and the re-marked test papers were placed in Jingzhao Mansion.

If you are interested, you can check it yourself.

Because the posted candidate's name was followed by a very conspicuous vermilion number, and the ranks of all the candidates were also followed by the number, so it was inevitable that many passers-by who had no interest in this matter were attracted.

This incident caused quite a stir in the capital. It was the first time that the imperial court took out the examination papers for people to check and re-graded after recycling, so there were a lot more people who cared about this matter.

But after the new round of exam results come out...

None of the candidates who were originally on the list failed, but the rankings of those candidates who were on the list have undergone a very big change——

For example, among the top three candidates in this county test, only No.2 was originally a female candidate, and the other two were male candidates, but after this re-ranking, the two male candidates were directly squeezed out by the other two female candidates .

reason?

Because most of the examiners who judge the papers are men, they prefer majestic poems (the poetry writing level of the county examination candidates), so although the two male candidates made mistakes in the previous answers, the last poem was pulled back. The impression points of many examiners directly made them climb to the top three positions.

But after the scoring standards came out, points will be deducted for wrong answers, and poetry also has strict scoring standards. As long as it does not go off topic and has aura, the theme and style of poetry are not included in the scoring content at all.

then……

The two candidates were mercilessly squeezed down by two female candidates whose poetry and writing style were softer and more delicate.

The original No.2 directly became the head of the case.

Not only that, originally the top ten female candidates only occupied four seats, but now that the judging mechanism has been changed to compress the examiner's own preferences to the extreme, female candidates directly occupy seven seats in the top ten.

Not only the top three and top ten, but even the ranking of female candidates after this has increased by three to ten places.

Everyone sees this result: "..."

Dare to feel that this county test is indeed unfair, but it is not unfair to male candidates, but unfair to female candidates.

Because the grading standards are posted directly at the front of all the test papers, and the ranks and scores of candidates are also clearly posted on the wall, even if someone is not convinced, they can still score according to the standards to see if there is any change in the final result.

The result is of course...

No change.

After all, this time, when all the examiners were grading, they were wearing black hats on their heads, and they might be in danger at any time. For this reason, they had already reached the extreme of faultfinding.

and so……

Those people who spoke arrogantly about the unfairness of the exam and slandered the female candidates before were all blushing, especially when those who heard their cynical remarks looked at them with strange eyes, their mentality collapsed, and it was worth hiding their faces. escape.

After escaping, it is estimated that these people will not dare to go out for a long time.

Even if they come out in the future, the reputation of these people will definitely not be much better, and it is inevitable that they will be gossiped about——

Just like when they were pointing fingers at those female candidates without any scruples.

……

After this county test, I realized that if we follow the original scoring method, female candidates may still encounter invisible discrimination during the test due to various reasons, resulting in poor grades in the end——

From this point of view, Lin Liu is quite grateful to the group of scholars who are jumping around all day.

After all, without their "efforts", Lin Liu might not know until now that female candidates would be discriminated against because of their writing style during the exam.

But after discovering this, Lin Liu admired Sheng Man and others even more.

Under the circumstances of being discriminated against, they can still win such good results. These women who have stood before the eyes of the world are far better than she imagined.

But she didn't intend to sit back and watch such unfair things continue to happen under her nose in order to screen out better talents.

So after this incident was over, Lin Liu directly ordered that all the exams will adopt this scoring mechanism and standard, so as to minimize the impact of the examiner's own preferences on the candidates' scores.

Although it is unavoidable that some people think that such a scoring mechanism may kill the aura of many scholars, such a clear and strict scoring mechanism does achieve the word of fairness to the greatest extent.

Besides, everyone could tell that their empress had been in a bad mood after the results of the second county examination came out, and she was visibly angry.

At this time, no one dared to touch the emperor's brow.

After all, the emperor is not a good-tempered person, and he always speaks and does things unexpectedly, and doesn't care about the unspoken rules of officialdom that they used to regard as the standard.

If she is really going to irritate people, who knows what she will do?

Therefore, every subsequent exam is directly bound to the scoring mechanism, and it is impossible to have the same situation as the county exam.

——After the news came out, those scholars who were jumping vigorously before were reviled again, and this time, the people who scolded people directly became the male scholars who were standing in the same trench as them.

Because after the results of the second test were announced, these scholars realized how much advantage the male candidates whose ideas resonate with the examiners more easily took advantage of the original test scoring method.

But now, this kind of privacy profit has been banned and disappeared directly because of the ups and downs of this group of people, and they will no longer be able to enjoy it in the future.

Just like the original case leader in this township examination, he was originally No.1 in glory, but now he has directly become No.4, and because of the drop in test scores, he has received some ridicule that he should not have suffered.

Even though the exam ranking had nothing to do with him, the dramatic result still brought him a disaster.

But if it wasn't for these people making a fuss, not only would he still be the head of the case, but he wouldn't have been ridiculed and stared at at all.

These male candidates who participated in the county examination and were on the list were the group who scolded people the hardest this time.

The group of people who made trouble before saw that the situation was not good, and hid directly at home, not even daring to go out.Some of the timid ones even packed up their bags and went to Zhuangzi in the suburbs, or directly voted for relatives in other places, hoping to wait for the news to pass before returning to the capital.

After this group of people disappeared, the capital regained its former calm.

Just when the exam grading problem was solved, and everyone thought that the topics related to the county exam would slowly disappear with the passage of time, an article was published, which directly revealed the county exam. The reason why so many female candidates are all on the list.

The article was published in Lin Shenjianlu's newspaper, and the writer was familiar with him. He was Mr. Songhe, the little vest of the Year of the Crane.

Mr. Songhe's articles never like to set the stage, and often cut to the point at the beginning of the article, pointing out the theme.

This time is the same, the first sentence of Mr. Songhe's article said that because he was curious about why so many people signed up for the county test, he asked his servants to ask many people and found out a lot of useful information .

Then he directly listed the data and told everyone what was the reason for this situation——

Many scholars in the capital look down on women. They always feel that the female candidates got such good results in the previous exams. It must be because their competitors are too incompetent. grades.

In addition to this group of arrogant people, there are quite a few people who are afraid of female candidates. They always feel that with the increase in the number of female candidates, the imperial examination will become more difficult in the future, so they want to take the exam in advance. Avoid the female candidates behind.

The former is arrogant and arrogant, while the latter is as timid as a mouse, but the number of these two types of people is very large, so in the end it directly led to the result that the number of people who signed up for the county test soared, twice as much as usual.

The number of candidates who signed up doubled, and the number of people on the list naturally doubled.

So a group of people who originally had a low chance of winning successfully passed the exam because of the assists of these two groups of people.

Everyone: "..."

Female candidates: "..."

I really don't know if I should thank this group of people for their hard work, especially those scholars who are arrogant and conceited and look down on women——

Most of the people who made a fuss before came from this group of people.

……

However, the enthusiasm caused by this article only lasted for a while, because immediately after that, the time for the government examination came.

Although many female candidates were lucky enough to be listed in the county examination this time, they can become real children only if they pass the government examination. .

If the county took the test, but was rejected by the government test, the female candidates who are now paying attention are afraid that they will hear some not-so-pleasant words.

Everyone is also aware of this situation, so one by one, they only planned to take part in the county examination to experience the atmosphere of the examination room. They didn't think about the girls who were on the list. Push your potential to the limit.

When the government examination came, the girls entered the examination room half excitedly and half apprehensively.

But after seeing the exam questions, the group of girls who were a little nervous immediately relaxed, and when they were ready, they began to concentrate on answering the questions.

Without him, they have reviewed all the questions on the test paper during this time.

When the test results came out, the results of these female candidates once again blinded everyone's eyes——

Every candidate who signed up for the government test was once again on the list.

Seeing this result, everyone was almost numb.

Even the most staid old man has to admit after seeing this result that women are never inferior to men.

Enlightenment schools, which were originally hard to find students, also ushered in a wave of registration.

The number of students has also soared from the pitiful early one hundred to five hundred, successfully surpassing the other two girls' schools and becoming the school with the largest number of students.

After the end of the government examination, there will be a period of time before the hospital examination. Girls in women's schools also have more time to review their homework and learn more new knowledge before deciding whether to take the subsequent hospital examination.

Although Lin Liu wanted to keep an eye on the situation at the women's school, even with the help of Lin Ruhai and others to filter out the unimportant ones, the memorials on her desk had piled up a huge amount, and she had to deal with them as soon as possible.

After the government affairs were dealt with, good news finally came from Maoshou——

A problem that troubled them before, finally found a breakthrough under the research of physicists, and then successfully overcome that difficulty with the help of Mao Shou and others.

Because they were worried that there would be some unsolvable problems in the future, Maoshou and others just told Lin Liu the good news, but along with the news, Maoshou asked her not to disturb her until the steam engine was improved. if.

Lin Liu: "..." Why, I used to hinder your research, right?

Although she could not help but slander that this group of people were sensitive, she was not incapable of understanding, so after reading the news, she restrained her curiosity and did not go to the Ministry of Industry.

But since this problem was overcome, Mao Shou and others seemed to have been opened up to the two veins of Ren and Du. The subsequent steam engine improvement process was extremely smooth, and it didn't take long for the news that the steam engine improvement was completed.

Lin Liu rushed to the Ministry of Industry in surprise. Before entering the door, she heard the sound of a rumbling engine starting. When she reached the gate of the Ministry of Industry, she directly encountered a carriage with a strange front.

She froze for a moment, and after careful observation, she quickly discovered that the space reserved for horses in front of the carriage had been replaced by a huge steam engine with two wheels.

Although it looked strange, Lin Liu would never admit that it was a steam engine!

At this time, other people have also seen Lin Liu and others.

Maoshou immediately raised a big smiling face, and ran directly in front of Lin Liu: "Sister, look, this steam engine is really made, we tried to add the steam engine to the carriage, and found that it can really replace the role of the horse .”

Just as Lin Liu was about to step forward, Mao Shou asked someone to turn off the steam engine.

Lin Liu smiled, then walked directly in front of the steam engine, and after careful observation, he came to the conclusion that the steam engine in front of him was not only very similar to the industrial steam engine in Lin Liu's memory, but some details were even more perfect than Watt's steam engine.

She raised her head and looked at Maoshou excitedly: "You still
