In the Song Dynasty, the king of Zhou was limped by a meal of water circulation and air circulation, and he promised to send him Buddhist scriptures and copybooks in a few days. Both of them returned to Xuezhai contentedly.Yang Jianzhi, who was helping to watch the self-study in the study room, had borrowed a board from someone, and practiced in front of the podium. Seeing the two of them turned back, he hurriedly got up to greet him, and led Zhou Wang back to Huan Ge's old man.

After King Zhou returned to the palace, why did he promise to the princess that he would find a set of precious manuscript Buddhist scriptures that is unique in the world? Not to mention, after Song Shi returned, he reported to the leaders that he would make a printing suit for King Zhou——

He took the order from the eldest son of the emperor, so he naturally wanted to make a full set of the highest-grade hard-tipped pen calligraphy tutorials and workbooks.Among them, whether it is finding a craftsman or using paper, it has to be reimbursed by the Hanlin Academy, and he, a poor Hanlin editor who has just joined the job, should pay for it out of his own pocket.

His deputy teacher, Xueshi Zeng, looked at the application he typed up and couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional: "Such a good opportunity to please the prince, if others don't try their best to prepare gold, silver, pearls and jade utensils and present them, how can there be such a good opportunity for the whole court?" For the official reports here, you only need some ordinary pen and paper.”

That being said, after all, the Imperial Academy is where the world's top literati gather, and the academics of the Imperial Academy are somewhat arrogant in their bones, and what they love is a character that does not admire glory and profit.His disciples acted aboveboard and did not want to cling to the prince. He also had a good reputation as a teacher, so he pretended to complain and told the matter to several attendant lecturers, and he was full of envious voices.

Satisfied, with a swipe of his pen, he generously allocated the money Song Shi applied for.

When Song Shi came over to thank him, he also thoughtfully asked, "What did His Royal Highness King Zhou tell you that day? If you have something to make, just say it, and give it to you along with this pen and paper."

Song Shi was not the kind of person who took advantage of the public, and said happily: "There is nothing else. That day His Royal Highness Zhou Wang and the students just talked about the "Li Qi Theory" and heard the students talk about the "Qi" floating between heaven and earth. I never said anything else about the principle of Zhou Liu. The list in the student newspaper has already filled the material into Yuyu, and there is no need for more."

The reason why Qi circulates between heaven and earth?

Zeng Chi's eyes suddenly brightened: "How did you say it? I saw you talk about the theory of Li Qi in the "Fujian Lecture Conference Notes" earlier. Although it was only a few sentences, it deeply understood the principles of Hui'an. Is it still a matter of reason?"

Not temperament, but geography.high school geography.

However, he could not introduce the development of education 600 years later to Mr. Zeng, so he could only take the achievements of his middle and high school geography teachers to himself, and said deeply: "His Royal Highness Zhou Wang asked the students what is on the cloud, and the students told His Highness There is still the principle of qi on the clouds, and some of the ways of changing clouds and rains - but some of them are not learned from the books of the sages, but are learned by the students when they followed my father in Fujian."

I'm sorry Wang Shengren, let me borrow your character design, but my character is only a mountain, so don't delay the "Shou Ren Ge Bamboo" becoming an allusion.

He apologized to the future sage in his heart, and then made up a story that in order to study Neo Confucianism, he followed his father in Fujian for seven days and worked out the principle of the rain shadow effect.

Warm air climbs up the windward side of the mountain, and condenses at high altitudes to form orographic rain, which makes the windward side of the mountain more rainy.After the air flow climbs over the leeward side, it will settle into dry hot wind, the water on the ground evaporates quickly, and there is less rain, forming a rain shadow area.

He "Ge Shan" figured out the "physics" of more rain on the windward side and less rain on the leeward side, and from this "physics", he realized the "natural principles" of water cycle, cold and warm air confrontation, and atmospheric circulation...

He is already a master who even fooled the prince. He is no longer the little scholar who was afraid of being kicked out of power when he lectured on Confucianism in Fujian. The naturalness of the wind, the subtlety of knowledge, can be compared with morality." The disciple studied with his predecessor Mr. Huan since he was a child, and he has always admired the virtue of a gentleman. Therefore, he went deep into the mountains for seven days, and with this body, he observed the direction of the wind and felt it. The feeling of the gradual change of temperature between the different heights of the mountain and the mountain, and the reason why the water vapor in the wind is stimulated by the cold and falls."

Teacher Zeng has never been to Fujian, so he can make up whatever he wants; but even if Teacher Zeng has been there, he dares to make it up like this: because Wuping County is at the southernmost tip of Wuyi Mountains, and Wuyi Mountains itself is in the subtropical monsoon climate zone, so it is possible to observe rain. shadow effect.

He confidently told the teacher a section of high school geography. Teacher Zeng was greatly moved and sighed: "Young people really have ambition. All the students in the world read 'Extending Knowledge in Investigating Things'. How many people are there? Since you have developed such a profound truth, and you can print books yourself, why didn’t you print them out and spread them all over the world?”

...Isn't this because it was made up now?

Song Shi lowered his head slightly, and tried to find a reason to say: "The disciple was still young at that time, although he thought of some things, he couldn't make a chapter. Now, he first recalled the past with His Royal Highness Zhou, and then had a deep talk with the teacher, and then sorted it out in the conversation. I can have my own analysis based on what I saw at the time. When I have time, my disciples will also write an article to describe this old event and explain the way of atmospheric circulation.”

Mr. Zeng nodded with a smile: "Then I will wait for Ziqi's new article. Someone in Beijing said earlier that you are a practical student. I didn't take it seriously. I thought you young students only study hard, so how can I calm down?" Do practical learning; but seeing your willingness to put down the books and investigate things by yourself, I believe a lot."

Talking about harming the country, the more officials in the central government, the more practical people should know.

Teacher Zeng thought carefully about the geography knowledge he just talked about, tapped his fingertips on the table, and sighed: "If this method of airflow changes is thoroughly studied, can it be used in farming?"

It should be applicable to agriculture, forestry and water conservancy.

People around such a mountain range should have understood and adapted to this climate characteristic by experience, but if he writes a book, it will be good for more students and officials to be elected to see this kind of knowledge.After all, they are all likely to be sent to various places to be parents' officials, to know more about geography and meteorology, and to take more preventive measures against natural disasters in this area after taking office...

Thinking about it this way, Song Shi really wanted to write a good article.

He made up his mind, and by the way, he flattered the teacher a little: "When Zhu Zi talked about the seriousness, he said that 'behavior is important'. When you hear about something today, you want to benefit the people because you have won Zhu Zi's way. He has the bearing of common people in his heart, and he has the style of Zaifu."

Teacher Zeng was delighted to hear it, but he said "noisy" with a sullen face, and threw him the note for the money, and asked him to go back and make a copybook for King Zhou.

In the Song Dynasty, he went to the account to pay the money, and asked the officials in charge to bring the craftsmen who made the pens.

When he ordered stylus pens for the Shuji class, he personally met the blacksmith and carpenter used by the officials of the Imperial Academy, and explained the key points of making pens. Make a change: cut off a circle of wood not far from the nib, where the fingers touch the pen, stick a leather case on the outside, and dig out a few shallow fingerprints on the leather case.

He held the finished pen while talking and gesticulating. The carpenter used a bullet to delineate the length on the spot, but the cobbler couldn't remember the shape and position of the finger mark. Song Shi waited for the ink to dry, and painted it with three fingers. Cinnabar, holding the pen in the correct posture, left handprints on it.

After it is done, the leather case that holds the pen can be less than 1mm thicker than the pen barrel.

Nowadays, there is no vernier caliper in this era, and you can’t directly measure the circumference with a pen tube. You can only draw the outline on the paper first, measure the width with a wooden ruler, and estimate it with the eyes of craftsmen.

Song Shi remembered that there were vernier calipers in China in the Western Han Dynasty, but they disappeared for some reason, but it would be very convenient to have vernier calipers now.The glass, stylus, and mimeograph he made before were not so detailed, and they were all handed over to high-level technical workers who had a good eye.

He seems to remember the outline of the vernier caliper, but the memory is not very detailed, and this kind of industrial things cannot be sloppy.

Anyway, he was working in the library a few days ago. In addition to moving books, drying books, and labeling, he also visited the technical work of book repairers repairing ancient books. Later, he could write a short article on ancient book repairing techniques before the Ming Dynasty. , maybe you can pass the draft.

With vernier calipers, it is also convenient to measure the diameter and thickness of glass sheets, and make a telescope, sight or something.His senior brother is now on patrol at Pai Nine, what if he can touch a gun in the future?Can you even bring back one or two?

Even if he can't get it back, if he sends a few sets to the border, it can be considered as a contribution to defending the country!

When people are overwhelmed by a pile of work, their idle thoughts will come out unstoppably.If it wasn't for the carpenter and cobbler calling him a few times, the drama in his mind would have played out that his senior brother was lying in the deep grass with a gun and sniping the Tatar Khan.

He came back to his senses and said to the two craftsmen: "The stylus is roughly made like this. When you finish it, show it to me first. If it is suitable, I will order dozens more sets." He also said to the carpenter: " I also need to order a piece of manuscript paper, with wooden boards carved with rice characters on it."

Take this board and press it on the waxed board, and the waxed board will print a border like a rice-lettered homework paper used by elementary school students.

Later, I asked the papermaker to print a few pieces of work paper with grids like this, dyed it into light pink, bean paper, and pine flower colors that are not harmful to the eyes, soaked it in wax, and took it to the king of Zhou to practice his hands.After all, he is the eldest son of the emperor. If you teach him to practice calligraphy with a slate, it would be too shabby to write with wax and repaint it.

As for the sages, don't compare and waste it, take this marked board and print it on the wax board, and the rice characters will be cut out, which will improve their conditions.

The Hanlin Academy used craftsmen recruited from all over the country to be on duty in Beijing. Their skills were excellent. The carpenter and the cobbler worked together to make the pen and the wooden mold for embossing rice characters within a day or two.The paper dyed by the papermaker was also delivered quickly, and it was exactly what he wanted: the paper was evenly dyed, with a thin layer of wax soaked in it, and the paper surface was oily and translucent, and each grid was printed clearly. Chu, the same size.

It happened that his vernier caliper design was also drawn down, and the scale was enlarged. It was not good to use public money to settle the bill, so he asked the carpenter to find a good blacksmith to make the ruler for him.

The carpenter only glanced at it and said: "If you only make rulers, iron rulers may not be better than wooden rulers. A small one can make a good ruler that is flat, straight, and fine. Why doesn't the champion use a small one?"

No, after this thing is done, he plans to send a set to the border. Can't his brother check and calibrate the bow string, crossbow frame, gun barrel and so on at the border?The weather conditions in the capital and the border are so different, and the road is bumpy all the way, and the wooden ruler is easily deformed and unreliable!

Besides... If it is made into such a large double-layer steel ruler with a handle, it must be heavy and strong. It can be used for horizontal cutting and vertical smashing in the hand. The shape is not eye-catching, and it is also convenient to use.In case of a corrupt general who dared to attack the imperial envoys, those rebels would naturally not pay attention to him when they saw him, a humble scholar holding a ruler for measuring things, and then he could wave the iron ruler to One hit eight, struggling to rescue the fellow imperial envoy...

He was so excited that he flatly rejected the carpenter's request and added another condition: "It must be made of iron! Whether the outside of the iron ruler is painted or covered with gold, it must be made not like iron, but like stationery used by wealthy literati." !"

After it's done, I will entrust Mr. Huan to send it to the border!

Although Mr. Huan looked down on him and misunderstood him as a male vixen who seduces his grandson, he is a good grandfather who loves his children and grandchildren. He should not detain anything that is useful to his grandson.

But if Mr. Huan was asked to send it, would he still write a letter?Will I be detained if I write it?

……forget it.Why express love, one caliper is enough.
