“Where is the boundaries of knowledge?”

The public tour area at the peak of Zhongshan, mixed in watching Woolf, is also asking such questions.

The train in the distance is ruminant.

Like the ten carriages of the long dragon, driven by the front of the car that constantly sprayed black smoke, they drove along the track to the terminal, and the terminal was a forested chimney.The black smoke and fog that fill the sky are countless long-lasting factories, and all kinds of buildings that are blacked with soot form a black behemoth that cannot be seen.The behemoth swallowed countless iron ore and coal, copper and various other metals, nitrate and sulfur, and then spewed out new machinery and weapons to support this vast empire to amass the world’s wealth and support their armies to continue to expand their territory.

“Is he driven by magic?”

A blond standard Germanic marveled in German by his side.

“Stupid infidels!”

The Portuguese consul said disdainfully.

Of course, in order to avoid conflict, he used Portuguese.

"The Pope's Dog!"

The Dutch consul, who knows Portuguese, scolds the old rival in German.

Well, this is the daily gathering of envoys from all countries in the South, although out of loneliness in foreign countries, they are often accustomed to being together, but they are not in harmony with each other.In particular, relations between Britain and the Netherlands are becoming increasingly tense, and the other envoys are also not good at each other because of their beliefs and interests.The blond was the Danish consul, who had just arrived in the south for less than half a year, were Protestants and the backbone of Protestantism.At this time, Denmark was also an important trading country at sea, and they established a commercial stronghold in eastern India decades ago, reaching the East even earlier than France.Nanyang and they had trade, the former transported tea to their strongholds, and they returned tea to Europe, but these years Denmark mixed in Europe, the rise of Sweden gave them a huge blow, a few years ago was beaten by Sweden, had to sign a treaty of land scraping.

They are more interested in overseas trade.

After all, trade can make up for the loss.

Although the Swedes could beat them, they didn’t have to honestly give them the gold coins to buy tea.Of course, there is no need for the Swedes to say that they can be beaten again by beating them back.

“Hm!”

Woolf continued to sniff at these fools.

He had always boasted of being wise and long-sighted, and he had never been afraid to speak to these fools, who had no idea how dangerous this vast empire was.Stuffing wealth, so powerful as a shuddering army, crushing Europe’s industrial might, how terrible it would be to set foot on the chariot of expansion after the Civil War ended.Their fleets had reached the Americas, and had established their first colonies on the west coast of North America, and their merchant ships had spread throughout the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean, from the Persian Gulf to Zanzibar, where they could see the Great Ming merchant ships flying the banner of the sun and moon.Their fleet strength, even if they were placed in Europe, was already the first class, and ten battleships and hundreds of cruise ships made them almost invincible in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and even more frighteningly, their technology was also far ahead, and no one knew how many things they had left without the ency of a demon.

If in the era of hydropower, there is still no essential gap between European countries and Daming, but when he created these monsters that spit out black smoke, it is no longer a gap to describe.

It is not a level at all.

“Is it really water driven?”

Woolf asked him in a low voice to the secretary next to him.

"Yes, Consul, I bought it from one of their factory owners who bought this machine with ten thousand Spanish gold coins, which, according to him, are similar to boiling water in a kettle, and then the water is up a kettle lid, and their thing is called a steam engine, which is so powerfully driven."

The secretary said.

In fact, these European consuls in the southern capital are part-time spies, the main task is to get the main export of the big Mings those secrets.

However, the results are almost zero.

After all, playing this is still not enough to see in front of the koi, as for the secret of the steam engine they now hear, this is not a secret at all, the protectors themselves have said publicly, but he said that there will certainly be no Europeans when he said it.But the factory owners who bought the steam engine, the workers who used the steam engine, were very clear about the principle of this thing, and of course ten thousand Spanish silver coins could be collected, of course, and did not mind telling them.But they just know it is useless, and even if Watt was born in advance, it is not possible to make a steam engine.In fact, Watt could not be the inventor of the steam engine at all, the original steam engine was a theory and model proposed by scientists in the 17th century, Newcomen made the first commercially used steam engine in the early 18th century, and Watt improved the formal steam engine in the mid-eighteenth century.

It took them a hundred years.

In the past 100 years, countless new technologies and new processes have been born to eventually achieve Watt.

Watt’s success wasn’t because he was smart enough.

But the industrial development of England, has laid the foundation for his success, without the whole industrial system with which he is not matched, and at this time the steam engine drawings are not made to the British.First of all, they can't build cylinders, they don't have a thud, and then some small steel parts they can't make, they don't have crucible steel, and even they even have a tight valve, a smooth enough straight rod can't be done.

Everyone has a brain hole, and the brain becomes a reality, and the power of the system is needed.

But the system doesn’t come out of the brain.

Yang Qing was successful because he had solved all the problems step by step before this, even if the train was made by his hanger for eight years.

Of course, Woolf wouldn’t know that.

"Send the news at once, don't use written things, remember in your heart, those brocades are just like ghosts!"

He said.

The secretary nodded his head.

They had already caught one before.

A British spy trying to acquire porcelain craftsmanship took advantage of the change in Guangdong to sneak into a porcelain factory in Foshan, obtain a large number of secrets, and then memorize a notebook.As a result, when they were out of the tiger door, they were found by the customs inspection team, not only that I was beheaded, but also involved in the arrest of more than a dozen Britons in Guangdong, and directly threw them to Hainan Island to dig iron ore.

Therefore, the safest way to send this information can only be in the mind.

At this point, the train reached the terminal.

The terminal.

“Your Majesty, please!”

The father-in-law regained his respect, went down the train and trod his waist, and held the hand of her majesty, who also changed into a face, and nodded in the ceremony of the workers, and then went to a factory building in front of him.

For the first time, the queen came to this factory, which actually belonged to her husband.

"Your majesty, it's dirtier here, so be careful."

The Protector said.

"Working brothers can work here with peace of mind, am I afraid of what is dirty?"But it is a little hot here, and the working brothers in such a place are indeed too hard.This is good for spring, if the summer is not hotter, I will give them two yuan per month in the summer temperature subsidy!You must care about the workers brothers, like Guangzhou, I do not want to do it a second time, and there are those who treat workers badly, and I will never forgive them!"

Her Majesty the Queen was angry with the Protector.

“Oh, you know!”

The protectorate is insatiable fear.

The workers were moved to tears.

“What machine is this?”

Her Majesty’s eyes soon turned to a brand new machine beside her.

This thing is like a alchemy furnace, but there are ear shafts on both sides, with gears and so on the pig iron base on both sides, the top is open, you can see a fire red, while there is a faint visible smoke rising up, and even with a few drops of splashing iron water.The bottom is surrounded by a whole circle of six iron cylinders driven by the steam engine, and with the rapid rotation of the steam engine, the piston inside is constantly moving rapidly, and the air is directly pressed into the alchemy furnace through a very short connection tube.

“This is a new kind of steel!”

Yang Qing quickly explained to his wife the baby in his factory.

Okay, this is a converter.

The bottom blow air converter.

The key to this thing is in the blow wind, its own structure is not complicated, is to pour iron water into and then a lot of to blow the wind, with the oxygen in the air to continue to heat the iron water, and finally the impurities inside in the smoke way to take away.However, the old water exhaust blower will certainly not be able to meet the requirements, and it is the bottom blower, requiring that the wind must be strong enough, so in the case of the centrifugal blower is still not very good, it can only be used with piston.

That is, in the year concedes, John Smiton blowers.

But Smyton is hydraulic.

Yang Qing because there is a steam engine later than Smiton so on the steam power, these are actually steam-powered large wind box blowers, while the wind to a wind chamber to ensure sufficient pressure inside.The compressed air is squeezed from the air tract into the liquid iron water, so that the carbon inside the latter reacts with oxygen in the air without external heating.

The end result is low carbon steel.

Of course, Yang Qing also uses acid stove linings.

So he can only smelt low-phosphate ore, and Hainan Island iron ore, just enough phosphorus content, and sulfur is also low.

"The quality of the steel made by this thing is still not as good as the crucible steel, but..."

Yang Qing looked at his wife and said.

His wife looked at him very cooperatively.

“It’s fast and powerful!”

Yang Qing said.

The workers in front of the talking room turned the wheel, so that this kind of like the turning furnace of the alchemy furnace began to slowly dump on the side, and quickly turned to the mouth of the furnace at enough angles, and the fiery red steel water flowed out...
