Chapter eight hundred and sixty-two: extremely smart Zhu Houzhao
Fang Jifan's mood for Wang Shouren was the most complicated.
If others say that they have changed their destiny because of themselves.
Whether it is Tang Yin, Xu Jing, or Ouyang Zhi, there is no need to say.
But only Wang Shouren, his strength, even if he doesn't need any opportunity, will still be a existence that surpasses everything in this era.
His light was enough to make countless people in later generations feel sad.
The quality of Wang Xue and the quality of Fang Jifan can be put aside for the time being.
Even if Wang Shouren's halo was stripped away and relying solely on this Neo-Confucian scholars were so popular in the world, countless Confucian scholars shook their heads for the Cheng-Zhu Zhixue. Wang Shouren was able to have his own thoughts and, on this basis, open up a brand new doctrine, which is enough to be admired.
His literary and martial arts, his riding and shooting skills, and his ability to do so, in today's world, almost any field can beat people of the times.
It was a joke to accept him as his disciple.
Apart from being handsome, Fang Jifan has nothing to do. What qualifications do we have to be Wang Shouren's mentor?
But... there are always countless wonderful misunderstandings in the world.
Since he became his mentor, Fang Jifan would not be polite. Fortunately, he may often be extremely strict with other disciples and do not listen to our Fang Jifan. I will beat you to death. But he is more tolerant to Wang Shouren.
Do whatever you want, think about it yourself.
When Fang Jifan heard that his disciples were about to enter the capital, he sighed in his heart: "I will welcome them and invite people from the capital to receive gifts and gold."
"…………” Zhu Houzhao felt that Fang Jifan was mentally retarded this time.
"Don't think about it!" Zhu Houzhao said: "I have calculated... these guys have paid down payments and have to pay off their loans every month. Some people may need to buy a carriage, which also needs a mortgage... Well... they will have to eat braised food in the next 20 or 30 years."
Fang Jifan thought, he was very sorry that this generation of leeks is not good.
He then said happily with his hands behind his back: "Let's go, I'll take you to see the things."
Zhu Houzhao said: "What."
Fang Jifan led Zhu Houzhao to a workshop, where there were dozens or hundreds of craftsmen.
Zhu Houzhao has a lot of these craftsmen, but they all look familiar. Didn’t these guys even study carriages?
Those who can come here are all skilled craftsmen, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps. They are all kingly and terrifying existences in their respective fields.
But every craftsman surrounded a stove, and there was a kettle above the stove. The water in the kettle had already boiled, and the boiling water in the kettle was shaking loudly.
Zhu Houzhao frowned: "What is this for?"
Shush! Fang Jifan silenced Zhu Houzhao and whispered: "Look carefully and look at the lid of the pot."
The lid of the pot was constantly lifted up due to steam, fell down again, and then lifted up again.
“What did you feel?”
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say, "When the water in this kettle is about to boil, will it explode?"
Fang Jifan said sternly: "Your Highness, don't make trouble. Think about it, why do our balloons fly? Isn't this the same thing as this kettle?"
Zhu Houzhao tilted her head: "I still don't understand!"
Fang Jifan looked at the other craftsmen: "Do you understand?"
All the craftsmen, under Fang Jifan's instructions, stared at the kettle for a long time. But when they were staring at it, they actually... didn't understand very well.
Didn’t the principle of water vapor inspire scientists from the Francophones by relying on a kettle? Then, based on this water vapor, the steam engine was created.
Fang Jifan only knew the principle of water vapor, but he knew nothing about how to use it, because for Fang Jifan, this was a bit complicated.
As a liberal arts student.
But this does not prevent Fang Jifan from inspiring these craftsmen. I think... Maybe someone can get this truth from it, and eventually, with wonderful ideas, they will eventually change the course of history.
But...these guys actually shook their heads.
This made Fang Ji embarrassed.
This commander has asked you to watch it for a day. What does it mean? It's in vain?
Fang Jifan was angry and embarrassed: "Don't understand? OK, I'm shameless, right? I asked you to sit here to meditate, but you didn't understand. It's obvious that you are just toasting and not eating and drinking. Come on, come on, come on, tie them one by one and prepare the flying balls, so that they will understand."
Fang Jifan likes to pull out seedlings to encourage growth.
How can they open up their wisdom without any excitement?
A group of guards came in without saying a word, and the craftsmen were panicked: "What are you doing, what are you doing?"
...
Soon, they knew what this was doing.
Fang Jifan tied the craftsmen outside the flying ball's vine basket, tied them up in large quantities, and then the flying ball began to inflate.
The craftsmen immediately wailed: "Oh my God, I'm afraid of the high lieutenant...the lieutenant..."
Fang Jifan was unmoved.
The flying ball flies.
The craftsmen hanging outside the vine basket watched in horror as they flew away from the ground, and the sky was howling.
Fang Jifan held the telescope and looked up from time to time to admire everyone's fearful face.
Zhu Houzhao was also happy, raised her telescope to look at it, and said, "This method is good, this method is good, I didn't expect that I would let Gu Dayong go back and let this guy stay like this."
Fang Jifan's face was solemn: "Your Highness, this is not a joke. This is a bad move for the sake of the thousands of people in the world. Do you think this is a joke? Do you think...I am willing to make trouble like this? They are the smartest and top craftsmen in my Ming Dynasty. If they want to be enlightened, this is a last resort. In this world, if you want to be prosperous and strong, you must rely on technicians. Whoever takes the first step first can be far superior to your opponent. Otherwise, if you fall behind, you will fall behind everywhere. Leaving behind requires blood and tears, and you will die. How can a family cry like crying? The craftsmen... are all cultivated by me, just like my children. I, Fang Jifan, will I hang my biological children on this flying ball?"
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while: "I refuse."
"That's right." Fang Jifan sighed: "But for the sake of family, country and the world, and for the sake of our Ming Dynasty forever, Fang Jifan had to endure the pain. Okay, stop laughing, just like me, with a more solemn expression."
Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan with contempt, looked up at the telescope: "Don't you just want them to understand the reason why this air can actually lift the lid of the pot? What's the difficulty? You want to tell them that if the air can lift the lid of the pot, isn't it the same as flowing water, and can push all things? I think about it, this water flow can be used to build a water truck, and use this water power instead of manpower. So... can this water vapor be used like flying balls and pot lids? Lao Fang, do you think my... is right, quickly say it is reasonable, otherwise I will kill Liu Jin, he is your grandson!"
"..." Fang Jifan was stunned.
Damn...
His Highness the Crown Prince... he actually realized it first.
What exactly is this guy holding in his mind?
Seeing Fang Jifan looking at him with a dumbfounded look on his face.
Zhu Houzhao felt a little embarrassed.
"how?"
Fang Jifan held Zhu Houzhao's shoulders with both hands and shook desperately: "Your Highness, you are a talent."
Zhu Houzhao was a little dizzy when she was shaken: "Everyone said so..."
Fang Jifan said excitedly: "Your Highness, continue talking."
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while: "Water flow can be used as a windmill, so... why can't this steam be used... to make a steam car. Yes... wait, let's wait. I think about it again. Steam has an advantage over water flow. Water flow must find a river. Where there is no river, it is useless. But steam is different. For example, when I hold a stove, when do I want the lid of this pot to be lifted up? As long as I want the lid of this pot to be lifted up, just burn the fire, I can also lift the lid of the pot in Xishan today, and tomorrow... in the Forbidden City, I can also lift the lid of the pot. In short... as long as there is a stove, I can lift the lid anywhere in the world. This... is the biggest advantage of steam over water flow."
Fang Jifan nodded hurriedly: "There are some, for example...we want to build a car, how about it?"
"That's it!" Zhu Houzhao scratched his head: "It's a bit troublesome. Build a car? How can there be such a great force? First of all, we have to use the water flow to make the car rotate. This... we have to let the craftsmen solve it. Secondly, the most difficult thing is that there must be enough steam to not only lift the lid of the pot, but it is ten times greater than the force of lifting the lid of the pot, or even a hundred times, a thousand times greater than the force of lifting the lid of the pot..."
Fang Jifan sighed in his heart.
If Zhu Houzhao were not the prince, this guy... might have really achieved something.
Just these wonderful ideas are enough to beat those scumbag craftsmen.
But... this is how people are. God gave Zhu Houzhao a restless personality, but at the same time, he also opened a window for him. Just like many mentally retarded people, they often... have other extraordinary special abilities.
Fang Jifan put his hand on Zhu Houzhao's shoulder: "Your Highness, come on, let's go to the house to discuss it carefully. We must first consider how to build a large enough furnace. With this huge furnace, we can get hundreds and thousands of times of steam..."
"Who can't make the stove..." Zhu Houzhao was happy.
It is rare to see Fang Jifan looking at him with admiration.
Zhu Houzhao said excitedly: "This is nothing to craftsmen. I think that the problem we need to solve at the moment is... how to use the force generated. Just like water flowing, it is flowing every day, but if there is no water wheel, isn't this force also in vain?"
