I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

But no matter what, it was impossible for Cheng Jingwei to stop Luo Shixing from letting him go.

In the end, he could only helplessly say: "Then you should pay attention, there are many mosquitoes by the water, bring more medicine."

From the beginning to the end, he didn't ask Luo Shixing what he was going to do.

Luo Shixing was also a little embarrassed. He clearly said that he came to help make weapons, but he gave the blueprint and ran away.

But the matter in his hands was indeed very important, so he had to say goodbye to Cheng Jingwei Maomao: "I'll cook something delicious for you when I'm done."

Cheng Jingwei had no choice but to rub his head: "Do your work."

It's not a big deal, why let the little lynx cook by himself?

Luo Shixing led the people away again, and the soldiers who had relaxed for two days were still discussing why their general had been so gentle in the past two days. How to scold them.

As a result, they discovered that the familiar and frightening general had returned that day.

After everyone finished their exhausting training, they inquired with Brigadier General Wang An that the co-authorship was caused by the arrival and departure of the leader.

Everyone didn't think too much about the relationship between the two, they just thought that when the lord was here, their generals had to be gentle and not too aggressive, otherwise the lord would be unhappy.

So for a moment, everyone was looking forward to the leader's return and staying for two more days.

Cheng Jingwei was not ignorant of the discussion of the people below, and after calling the guard over to ask a few words, he called Wang Antong over.

After Wang Antong came in, he stood at attention and saluted, and then waited for Cheng Jingwei to speak.

Cheng Jingwei said angrily: "Are you too busy recently? Do you have time to gossip with others?"

Wang Antong shrank his neck, and carefully glanced at Cheng Jingwei, who really looked like a dog who made a mistake.

He whispered, "I didn't say anything."

Cheng Jing slightly said what you were going to say and you are already being beaten now.

"If you're okay, go to the lynx cat's side to guard."

In fact, Wang Antong's role as a bodyguard is absolutely overqualified, and their current military ranks were all transferred from later generations by Luo Shixing.

They call Cheng Jingwei a general, but Cheng Jingwei's current title is actually a marshal. Wang Antong, a brigadier general, has basically stepped into the threshold of a general. This is the real general.

Of course, generals are divided into generals, lieutenant generals, major generals, and brigadier generals in military ranks.

Wang Antong is basically the second-in-command in the barracks now, and it is a grievance to let him be a guard.

But Cheng Jingwei didn't think there was anything wrong, even Wang Antong was overjoyed.

He's on a mission, and he doesn't need to train during the mission!

Even though he is as energetic as a husky, he couldn't help sticking out his tongue after this day's training.

Wang Antong happily ran to find Luo Shixing with his people.

At this time, Luo Shixing had already led people to set up a tent, and was asking people to... chop bamboo?

After he came over, Luo Shixing was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

Wang Antong immediately raised his chest and said, "The general asked me to protect you."

Luo Shixing waved his hand: "I don't need protection right now, just go find some raw lacquer."

He made a mistake, he only remembered to ask Cheng Jingwei to prepare copper wires, which are used to conduct electricity, but he forgot that these copper wires have no insulation layer, if they can really generate electricity, it may not be sparks and lightning.

It’s just that these days there is no rubber and if you want to insulate, you can only use raw lacquer as a coating. The only thing you need to worry about is that raw lacquer is prone to allergies and poisoning, so you need to take good care of it.

Wang Antong immediately took people to look for raw lacquer, while Luo Shixing was studying the iron rod at this time. At this time, the iron rod had been cut and polished in order to better distinguish the magnetic poles.

So the current iron rod has actually become four pieces of iron. Luo Shixing tried it, and the different magnetic poles can indeed attract the iron pieces together.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Jingwei personally sent someone to deliver the polished copper plate, or it is not appropriate to call it a copper plate, it should be called a round copper knife, because the outermost side of the copper plate has been polished into a sharp blade state.

Luo Shixing was a little surprised when he saw Cheng Jingwei: "Why are you here in person?"

Just send two copper knives and a bunch of copper wires.

Cheng Jingwei pretended to say: "Anyway, I have nothing to do, and there is someone watching the training, so I don't need to come every day."

Luo Shixing said casually: "Then why do you still live in the barracks every day? Why don't you go back and let them come and report to you if there is anything."

Cheng Jingwei had a thought, but still said: "When the bow and arrow and hand crossbow are finished, I will move back if there is no problem. What are you doing now?"

He saw that the servants were building a shelf, as if they were going to put the copper knife vertically on it, and there was a shaft in the middle of the copper knife, and there was a horizontal bar on each side of the copper knife, as if there was something to be placed thing.

Luo Shixing said with bright eyes: "I'm making a hand generator now."

Well, if it is more comprehensive, it is probably a dual-knife hand generator.

Cheng Jingwei twitched his mouth when he heard the word electricity, and asked, "What is this for?"

Luo Shixing tilted his head and said, "To put it simply, it can replace water power and wind power as a new energy source, and it is even much easier to use than water power."

Cheng Jingwei didn't have a way to connect thunder and lightning with water power, but since Luo Shixing said so, he also chose to believe Luo Shixing.

Then he stayed, don't ask, asking is just curiosity.

Luo Shixing didn't care, but Cheng Jingwei came here just to deliver things, and it was a temporary decision to stay, so naturally he didn't bring a camp tent or anything like that.

After hearing this, Luo Shixing said casually, "My tent is big, so it's no problem to accommodate the two of us."

After finishing speaking, he continued to work, this time he was busy tying copper wires to powerful magnets, and these copper wires are used for conducting electricity.

Assembly is actually not difficult, but the difficulty is that if you want to generate electricity, you need the copper knives on both sides to rotate at the same speed and have a certain speed.

Luo Shixing never expected that he would be stuck at the same speed, and it was basically difficult to meet this requirement.

Even if you find a servant with the same stature, there will be subtle differences in the rotation, as long as there is a little bit that does not meet the standard, don't even think about generating electricity.

When Luo Shixing was worried, Cheng Jingwei turned to look at his guard and said, "You two go and try."

The guard stood at attention and replied, "Yes."

Then he walked over with neat steps, shouting slogans while turning the shaking hand on the copper knife.

After the copper knife is rotated, it rubs against a strong magnet to generate electricity, and the electricity is exported through the copper wire.

In order to prove whether there was electricity, Luo Shixing directly put a mouse in a cage woven with copper wire, and then tied the copper wire to it.

After the copper knife started to rotate, the friction with the powerful magnet produced slight sparks, and after the rotation speed increased, the mouse in the cage suddenly squeaked twice, then lay down directly and twitched its limbs.

Luo Shixing immediately slapped his hands: "It's all right."

Cheng Jingwei looked puzzled: "This...is that enough?"

So what is this for?Just to kill the rats?If that's the case, he thinks cats work better.

Luo Shixing said: "That's right, that's enough. The next step is to modify it and use water power to generate electricity."

Human power generation requires 24 hours a day and professional training, which is too tricky.

At the beginning, the hand crank was just worried that after a long time of tossing, it would be a waste of time to generate electricity if something went wrong.

From the beginning, Luo Shixing chose a place with relatively strong water flow, but when he actually got there, he frowned and turned to look at Cheng Jingwei and asked, "Is there less rain this year?"

Cheng Jingwei said that he almost had a psychological shadow about the rain, how many more?

But looking at the water flow in the river, he couldn't help nodding: "It seems to be less."

Although the rain will gradually decrease after entering the dry season, it is only a relative rainy season. There is still a lot of water in this creek, otherwise Luo Shixing would not have chosen this place.

But this year feels a lot smaller than the same period in previous years.

Thinking about it this year, they don't need to worry about flooding, which in itself shows that there is less rain.

Luo Shixing said casually: "I don't know if it's just our place, or if there is less rain this year in all places."

Cheng Jingwei didn't care too much: "It's not suitable here? Let's change to another place."

Luo Shixing said, "Try first."

Although the amount of water is small, Luo Shixing can build a small dam with stones to drive it through backflow.

However, reflow is more complicated, and it is not easy to get it right.

Naturally, the hydraulic drive was still a waterwheel. This time, Luo Shixing directly let the waterwheel stand on the shore.

Cheng Jingwei was a little curious: "Didn't you put the waterwheel in the water before?"

Luo Shixing said: "A person lying face down in the water is not called a waterwheel, but a waterwheel! I'll just try it first. If this works, wouldn't the waterwheel next to our house be useful too?"

Although the main function of the waterwheel is to divert water, once the electricity is really used, the water pump and the like will be built sooner or later, and the waterwheel may be reduced to a landscape decoration in the end.

Luo Shixing still has feelings for the waterwheel. In fact, the whole manor has changed a lot except around the villa, which is completely different from the past.

Of course it's good now, but Luo Shixing occasionally misses the past.

After the water wheel is set up, it is necessary to set up the mechanism to drive the double knives. This is much more convenient. After all, the double knives are also standing upright, directly connected to the water wheel and the handle of the double knives, and the rotation of the water wheel will drive the rotation of the dual knives.

In order to increase the speed of the waterwheel, this waterwheel has more scrapers than other waterwheels, and the whole is smaller and lighter.

After the water wheel turns, it starts to drive the hand generator to turn, and at this time, two wires are connected to the bucket.

After spinning, the water began to bubble. President Luo Shi heaved a sigh of relief, turned his head and happily hugged Cheng Jingwei and said, "We have electricity!"

Although Cheng Jingwei didn't know what the little lynx was happy about, and he didn't know what the use of this thing was, but he would definitely not refuse the little lynx's embrace.

So he hugged the little lynx and said with a smile, "Congratulations."

Luo Shixing patted him on the back and said, "Congratulations!"

There is a difference between having electricity and not having electricity. Now it means that they are one step closer to the industrial age!

Cheng Jingwei was a little puzzled and said, "I didn't see lightning either, why is it called electricity?"

Luo Shixing let go of him, and said mysteriously to him, "I'll let you see it at night."

at night?

Cheng Jingwei waited until night with doubts. After dark, Luo Shixing directly asked people to fix the copper wire with stones to expose the top part without insulators.

Then he carefully picked up a filament with bamboo tweezers from the servant next to him.

By the light of the fire, Cheng Jingwei asked in surprise, "Is this bamboo silk?"

Luo Shixing nodded: "Yes, the steamed bamboo shreds, next... is the moment to witness the miracle!"

While talking, he carefully connected the two ends of the bamboo wire to the copper wire, and connected the power supply.

For a moment, that little bamboo thread emitted a light no less than that of a torch.
