Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 873 "Jin Xuanye"'s new life (please subscribe!)



What bothers Ying Tiancheng the most for a literary young woman like Wen Xian is transportation.

Because the city is expanding and roads are being built everywhere, there are serious traffic jams in many streets in Yingtian.

Wen Xian encountered such a huge traffic jam on the way to the Huitong Hall in a luxury carriage.

She suddenly saw civil servants wearing green and black soap clothes with reflective strips on their chests and backs directing traffic.

These government servants are affiliated with the Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Justice, and they are considered the most criticized type of civil servants in the imperial court.

There were quite a few people who were caught by them for parking their carriages indiscriminately, and they didn't care whether you were an official or not, they just took the notice. Even Wang Qinian from Qianhu, who was accompanying their group, was fined.

Of course, complaints are complaints, but everyone also knows that this is a necessary measure for the normal operation of this megacity with a population of one million.

Without them, Yingtian’s traffic would probably collapse!
Law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be punished. Even if the emperor violates the rules, he will be guilty of the same crime as the common people.

Of course, the emperor can seal the road, so the emperor will not violate the rules.

Jin Yiwei Qianhu subconsciously asked the groom to turn the car to the other side and take a detour, but Princess Wen Xian suddenly shouted: "Stop, stop, stop quickly!!"

"You can't park here, what can you do?"

Wang Qinian ignored Princess Wen Xian's request, glanced at her anxious expression in the rearview mirror, and reminded, "If you want to poop, please be patient for a while, this is the new car assigned to me by Jin Yiwei!"

"Shit? That's so vulgar!"

Wen Xian covered her face. She never expected that Jin Yiwei would say this.

"I'm not talking about this, look, that guy over there!"

Princess Wen Xian pointed out the car window to a construction site in the distance.

I saw a middle-aged man with small eyes, a long face, and pockmarks on his face. He was wearing a red safety helmet and a yellow vest. He also held a big speaker in his hand and was very busy jumping up and down.

"It's really him!"

Princess Wen Xian's eyes were full of disbelief.

She would never admit this man was wrong.

The person she met when she was a child, who looked very much like his Emperor Ama, was the Emperor's uncle Chang Ning.

In Wen Xian's impression, Chang Ning always looked graceful and elegant. Wen Xian really couldn't superimpose the middle-aged man dressed as a worker in front of him with the image in his mind.

"Who is he?"

asked again.

"You mean metalworking?"

Wang Qinian asked the driver to slow down and take a look, and then said with some admiration, "Of course I know, he is a senior engineer of Yingtian Planning Bureau. He developed reinforced concrete based on bamboo reinforced concrete, so he won the Ming Dynasty Model Worker last year medal."

"metalworking?"

Princess Wen Xian's mind is a little confused.

"Yes, Jin Xuanye, Marquis Yanen of the Ming Dynasty, the former emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Chang Ning is Xuan Ye, then who is her Emperor Amma?
There’s no way she, Huang Ama, is fake!
No, the metalwork in front of you is fake. This is Ming Dynasty's routine.

Princess Wen Xian finally woke up.

She was too lazy to argue with the Ming Dynasty officials about the real Kangxi, the fake Kangxi, Jin Xuanye and Yin Xuanye.

Princess Wen Xian narrowed her eyes and wanted to take a closer look at the imperial uncle.

However, "Jin Xuanye" happened to miss the mark and fell to the ground in the mud.

Just as Wen Xian was about to cover his mouth again, he saw the Ming Dynasty Yanenhou nimbly getting up, cursed "Selinmu", then patted his butt and continued to direct the construction.

Marquis Yanen was very proficient in using southern Fujian Mandarin.Princess Wen Xian did not get out of the car, nor did she go to say hello to her old friend.

Because the princess didn't know whether to call him Emperor Ama or Emperor Uncle.

Finally, Zhu Kezang took the time to meet with Princess Wen Xian. During the meeting, Zhu Kezang highly affirmed her kneeling behavior of the century in Yangzhou!

Zhu Kezang's original words are as follows: Princess Wen Xian's feat won respect for the Qing Dynasty, because Princess Wen Xian's shocking kneeling showed that the Qing Dynasty dared to face the unbearable history of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and chose to face it head-on. , repented and reflected, instead of escaping and sophistry, Princess Wen Xian won the respect of the world for the Qing Dynasty.

Of course, regarding the condition of the Great Khan of the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Kezang also brought Zhang Lu, the former director of the Royal Hospital, who had retired and was recuperating at home.

Due to the rapid development of doctors and the improvement of living standards in the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Lu, who was supposed to have died in 1699, was still alive.

Zhang Lu, the former dean, flipped through the medical books and said: The Great Khan of the Qing Dynasty suffered from cancer. No medicine or stone can cure it. It can only relieve it, but cannot cure it.

Then Zhang Lu gave her a few useless prescriptions, which satisfied Wen Xian's filial piety.

As for Isbrandt's crazy idea of ​​wanting Wen Xian to be the female Great Khan, he also communicated with the Ming Dynasty diplomats in private. The Ming Dynasty had no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty, and the emperor did not like Princess Wen Xian, so it was abandoned. That’s it.

Wen Xian's trip to the Ming Dynasty was not particularly successful, but at least it eliminated some of the hostility of the Ming Dynasty.

But Zhu Kezang had no intention of paying attention to this. He was making a big toy!

Then airship.

Thinking of the huge value of airships to the military, Zhu Kezang increased investment.

However, making an airship is a cutting-edge technology in this era and requires the cooperation of many other aspects.

First of all, what energy is used?
Steam was definitely not suitable, so Zhu Kezang decided to use the most advanced electric energy.

If electric energy is used, a small generator must be manufactured, and Daming has enough technology to manufacture it.

Moreover, the Luzon rubber plantation industry in Ming Dynasty has matured, providing tens of thousands of tons of rubber to Ming Dynasty every year, and the production of insulated wires is not a problem.

In addition to the generator, the other equipment needed is the battery.

Daming’s existing battery technology is voltaic battery technology.

A voltaic pile is composed of multiple layers of silver and zinc separated by water-impregnated substances. It is also called a voltaic cell.

This is the earliest chemical power source.

Of course, in the New Ming Dynasty, it was not called a voltaic battery, but a Luzhuang battery.

At the same time, he also asked Huang Lvzhuang to start developing lighter-weight batteries with greater power storage based on old battery technology as the power source for future airships.

The first generation airship designed by Zhu Kezang was a soft airship.

Soft airships have lower material requirements and are easier to manufacture.

Compared with rigid airships, there are also disadvantages, that is, they cannot be designed as large airships and their safety performance is worse.

When making the airship, Zhu Kezang's first consideration was safety, because with Ming's technological methods, helium could not be extracted, and his only option was hydrogen!

However, hydrogen is flammable and explosive, and can even explode on its own when mixed with oxygen to a certain proportion. Such an airship will be very dangerous.

Therefore, it is necessary to prohibit the use of fire, and it is certainly not allowed to take off during thunderstorms, but these are not enough to ensure the safety of the airship.

Because there is wind in the sky, when the air rubs against the surface of the airship airbag at high speed, a large amount of static electricity will inevitably be generated.

Once this static electricity accumulates too much, it may generate sparks and ignite the hydrogen, which also needs to be taken into consideration.

So what material is used for the hull of the airship?
