After finishing writing, Zhao Wen did not ask Li Xiaosan to be found. After all, this is just a first draft, and there are still many rules and regulations that have not been clarified. In addition, Li Xiaosan should still be interrogating prisoners. It's not appropriate for Xiaosan to call me.

Zhao Wen folded what he wrote and put it on his body, and then began to draw the blueprint of the generator.

Before that, Zhao Wen had drawn more than half of the blueprints. If there were no troubles from those assassins, the drawing would have been finished long ago.

Zhao Wen took the ruler and drawings, and lay down on the table to draw seriously.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the sun also set on the western mountain.

Although it is already February, the days are still very short.

At the same time, Song Yingxing walked out of the train station. He looked at the night sky that had just darkened, and said to the followers following him: "Go directly to the General Military Mansion. I guess the General Military is still awake at this time. Lord Zongbing is in such a hurry to find me, I'm afraid he has something important to entrust to me."

"I'm afraid the commander-in-chief is already asleep at this time?" A follower looked at Song Yingxing and asked.

Song Yingxing shook his head, "Not necessarily, let's go and have a look first. If the Chief Soldier is really asleep, then let's go back to our residence first."

Song Yingxing arrived at Xuanzhen Railway Station relatively early, and arrived in the afternoon, but the blockade of the railway station had not yet ended at this time, so Song Yingxing waited on the train for a while.

Before Zhao Wen asked Liu Wenzhong to send a message to Song Yingxing to let him come back, so Song Yingxing got on the train after getting the news.

If it wasn't for the blockade of the train station, Song Yingxing would have left the train station long ago.

Not long after, Song Yingxing came to the gate of the General Military Mansion.

As soon as they approached, the guards in front of the gate of the General Military Mansion took off the 56 behind them, looked at Song Yingxing warily, and shouted: "Who is here?"

Zhao Wen experienced two assassinations, and these guards had to be more vigilant.

Song Yingxing said: "This is Song Yingxing, come here to see Mr. Chief Soldier!"

Song Yingxing walked forward as he spoke, and when the guard at the door saw Song Yingxing's face clearly, he suddenly realized: "So it's Mr. Song, I thought who it was!"

Song Yingxing was a frequent visitor to the General Military Mansion before, and these soldiers naturally knew Song Yingxing.

"My lord is in the study right now, and I haven't slept yet. My lord said, as long as it's Mr. Song, you can go in directly!" A guard pointed to the door and looked at Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing said: "If that's the case, then I'll go in!"

Song Yingxing looked at his followers before leaving, "You guys just stay here!"

After Song Yingxing finished speaking, he walked in under the leadership of the guards.

Not long after, Song Yingxing followed the guards to the outside of the study.

"Lord Chief Soldier!" Song Yingxing stood outside the study, knocked on the door, and called softly.

"The door is unlocked, come in." Zhao Wen knew it was Song Yingxing when he heard the voice. He looked at the door with a smile on his face.

Song Yingxing pushed open the door and walked in.

Looking at Song Yingxing who walked in, Zhao Wen said with a smile on his face, "Did you just arrive? Why did you come here at this time?"

"Returning to my lord, I arrived at the train station this afternoon, but because of the assassination of my lord, the blockade of the train station had not been lifted when I arrived, so it was delayed for some time." Song Yingxing first bowed to Zhao Wen , and then explained in detail why he came so late.

"I see, no wonder you came at this time. You too, why don't you take out your identity card, if you take out your identity card, you don't have to wait so long." Zhao Wen pretended He looked at Song Yingxing complaining.

Song Yingxing said: "It's okay to wait for a while, after all, your business is the most important thing. I don't know what happened to your lord? Was there any injury? Has the thief been brought to justice?"

Although Song Yingxing was in Yangyuan and was in charge of building the railway from Yangyuan to Shanxi, Liu Wenzhong also told him about Zhao Wen's assassination when he sent someone to pass the news to him.

Zhao Wen smiled and said: "The thief has been caught, I'm fine, the person who can kill me in this world hasn't been born yet.

The reason why I came all the way to find you is because there are some things I want to entrust to you. "

Zhao Wen pointed to the chair in front of the desk, and looked at Song Yingxing with a smile on his face, "Sit down and we'll talk."

After Song Yingxing sat down, Zhao Wen said with a smile: "What do you think of the house I gave you? If it's not suitable, I can change it for you."

After Song Yingxing's family came to Xuanzhen, Zhao Wen asked someone to pick a set of five yards and gave it to Song Yingxing.

Although Wujin's yard can be sold for a lot of money in Xuan Town, in Zhao Wen's eyes, even ten houses for a talent like Song Yingxing can't compare.

"You don't need it, my lord. This set of five yards is a bit too extravagant for me. I won't be able to use such a nice yard in the next family." Song Yingxing said sincerely.

Although Song Yingxing was born in Juren, but in this era when everything is low-grade but high-study, his things that are useless to the imperial examination will inevitably be regarded as heresy and looked down upon by others.

Although Daming's atmosphere is very open, there are still many stubborn people.

Before Song Yingxing came to Xuanzhen, although he was well-known, no one had ever respected him from the bottom of his heart like Zhao Wen.

"In my heart, Mr. Song can match my [-] troops." Zhao Wen praised without hesitation.

As soon as Song Yingxing heard Zhao Wen praise him so much, he hurriedly said: "I can't praise him like this, I really can't."

"Okay, what should I do? In my eyes, you deserve everything. You and Mr. Sun Yuanhua and Sun are my right-hand men. I am happier to have you two than to have a hundred thousand troops." Zhao Wenxuan Said a few times angrily, then pointed to the blueprint on the table and said to Song Yingxing: "Mr. Song, that's why I came here today."

Song Yingxing looked at the drawings on the table following the direction of Zhao Wen's finger.

"This should be a manufacturing drawing of something. I've never seen such a thing." Song Yingxing looked at it for a long time, but couldn't figure out what it was.

"This is called a generator!" Zhao Wen explained.

"Generator? What is this?" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen in confusion.

Song Yingxing had never heard of the term generator, nor did he know what this generator was.

Looking at Song Yingxing's confused face, Zhao Wen patiently explained, "Do you know the lightning in the sky? Do you know where it comes from?"

"Lightning? Legend has it that Thunder God and Lightning Mother made it, but I don't believe it at all.

Wang Chong of the Han Dynasty mentioned how lightning was produced in "Lunheng Leixu Pian".

The book says that in midsummer, the sun is at work, and the yin is taking advantage of it.When yin and yang are in conflict, they will collide with each other.Xiao Zhen shoots.

It means that in summer, yang qi dominates, and yin qi competes with it, so collisions, frictions, explosions and lasings occur, thus forming thunder and lightning.

And Mr. Zong Bing once said in his university books that lightning is formed because water molecules will generate two kinds of static electricity during the process of decomposition and friction at high altitudes, one is the positive charge at the upper end of the cloud layer, and the other is the negative charge at the lower end of the cloud layer. , and the ground will naturally have a positive charge, and the three attract each other. When the charge reaches a certain level, a strong current will be generated. This is also the reason why lightning will strike the ground.

Although I don't quite understand what the electric charges and water molecules mentioned in the book are, I can still understand them in general. "

After all, Song Yingxing is a Juren, and he also likes to study craftsman, so he has read many books that have nothing to do with the imperial examination.

In addition to these books, he also read the college textbook written by Zhao Wen, which explained the cause of lightning in detail at that time.

"You are right. The formation of lightning is what is said in college textbooks. Although the thing I drew cannot produce lightning, it can produce something similar to lightning.

Generators produce steady currents that have a very strong effect..."

Zhao Wen pointed to the drawing of the generator on the table, and explained to Song Yingxing in detail the use of the generator and the use of electricity.

Zhao Wen spoke for a long time, almost half an hour.

Song Yingxing listened to Zhao Wen's voice as if he was listening to a scripture from heaven. He never imagined that electricity would be so useful and powerful.

"My lord, do you mean that electricity will be able to replace steam engines in the future? This is impossible, right? Steam engines are already ingenious things. If steam engines are really replaced by electricity, doesn't that mean that electricity is more powerful than steam engines? How is this possible?" Listening to Zhao Wen's explanation, Song Yingxing's scalp felt numb, the steam engine was already the most powerful thing in the world in Song Yingxing's eyes, and now Zhao Wen suddenly said that there is something more powerful than the steam engine in the world How could Song Yingxing not be surprised by this?

Chapter 451 You Are Still Selling Weapons?

"The steam engine is still the most basic and most useful thing in Xuanzhen, but electricity is also a very good thing. There is no conflict between the two. We can use the steam engine and electricity together.

With electricity, you can make lights.Electric light is a light source that is [-] times more usable than candles, but because there is no rubber, it cannot be officially implemented yet, and everything will have to wait until the rubber is available.

However, you can try to make some generators first, and when you are proficient in making them, you can add rubber to make generators on a large scale. "

In the next period of time, Zhao Wen explained the electricity to Song Yingxing in detail again. In addition to the generator, Zhao Wen also introduced various things related to electricity to Song Yingxing in detail.

Especially for electric motors, Zhao Wen introduced the application of electric motors to Song Yingxing in detail.

In fact, the basic principles of motors and generators are similar. Except for some differences in use and shape, the most basic structure and principle are the same.

"Electric light? Is this thing really better than candles?" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen with some doubts.

Zhao Wen laughed, "Of course electric lights are better than candles. Once electric lights are manufactured and popularized, the entire Xuan Town will be equipped with electric lights, and then Xuan Town will become a real city that never sleeps.

At that time, the nights in Xuanzhen will become colorful, and the people will no longer have to live a monotonous life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Moreover, the processing of the factory will not stop at night. If the factory is filled with electric lights, the production efficiency of the factory will increase a lot.

A lot of equipment in the factory can also be replaced by electricity, which will increase the production capacity of the factory a lot.When smelting metals, electricity can also be used for smelting. This smelting method can smelt many metals, and the efficiency is very high. "

Zhao Wen explained the benefits of electricity to Song Yingxing in detail.

"These are voltmeters and ammeters, which are used to detect electricity and current. The structures of these two things are relatively simple. You can try to manufacture this thing first." Zhao Wen said and took out the drawings of the ammeter and voltmeter. He took it out and placed it in front of Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing looked at the blueprints on the table, and asked again: "Sir, what should I do with the railway if I'm doing this now?"

"Railway? Don't worry about the construction of the railway. You can study the generator with peace of mind. If you have a suitable candidate, you can also tell me." Although the construction of the railway to Shanxi is very important to Zhao Wen, the generator is more important. important.

Besides, anyone can supervise the construction of the railway, but Song Yingxing is probably the only one suitable for the manufacture of this generator in Xuan Town.

"By the way, the manufacture of this generator should be set up in the ironworks. I will have someone build a yard in the ironworks for you to use to study this generator.

However, Mr. Song, I hope you can remember that the generator is very important to us, and we must keep it secret when manufacturing it. Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing solemnly.

Song Yingxing said: "Don't worry, I will live up to the orders of the Chief Soldier!"

"Then I'll leave these things to you. It's getting late now, so I'll send someone to take you back."

Zhao Wen rolled up the drawings on the desk, handed them to Song Yingxing, and at the same time led Song Yingxing out of the study.

"I'll give you the drawing of the electric motor after you actually manufacture the generator." Zhao Wen led Song Yingxing out of the General Military Mansion. Outside the door, "You guys escort Mr. Song back to the house!"

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief!" Song Yingxing held the blueprint in his hand and saluted Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen waved his hand, "Thank you for what? A trivial matter, nothing to worry about!"

"Then I will take my leave!" Song Yingxing looked at Zhao Wen and said.

Zhao Wen nodded, "Okay, then I won't give it away!"

As Song Yingxing said, he bowed his hands towards Zhao Wengong again, and then walked towards the distance under the protection of four or five personal guards.

Looking at Song Yingxing who was leaving, Zhao Wen secretly said: "Guessing the time, Zheng Yiguan should have delivered the food soon, and let him send someone to America by the time.

At this time, there are probably a lot of rubber trees in the Americas, so you can get some rubber first. "

……

The place where Song Yingxing lived was not too far from Zhao Wen's General Military Mansion, that is, a distance of about ten minutes.

When Song Yingxing came to his house, he looked at the guards escorting him and said, "Thank you all!"

"You are welcome, sir. This is the order of the commander-in-chief. We will leave first!" A guard said, and before Song Yingxing could speak, he turned around and led the troops towards the commander-in-chief's mansion.

Song Yingxing looked at the backs of them leaving, turned around, and set his eyes on the gate.

He stretched out his right hand and knocked the brass ring on the gate.

Not long after, a hunched figure opened the door and leaned out with a puzzled expression.

He held up a lantern and kept shaking it, "Who is it?"

"It's me!" Song Yingxing looked at the hunched figure and said.

"So it's the third master!" This person is the housekeeper of the Song residence, and he is loyal to the Song residence, and Song Yingxing is the third eldest in the family, so the housekeeper called him the third master.

Song Yingxing is a total of four brothers, namely Song Yingsheng, Song Yingding, Song Yingxing and Song Yingjing.

And Song Yingding died of illness in the second year of Chongzhen, so there were only three brothers left.

Song Yingjing was born of Song Yingxing's father's concubine, and she had never gotten along with Song Yingsheng and Song Yingxing, so Song Yingjing had separated from Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng before, but this time she came to Xuanzhen, Song Yingjing did not follow Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng's mother passed away in the fifth year of Chongzhen, and their father also passed away a long time ago.

Song Yingsheng married two wives, one was Yu, who gave birth to a daughter named Song Yanwen, and a concubine named Xiao, who gave birth to a son named Song Shiying.

Because of Song Yingding's death, Song Yingding's son and daughter got married early and did not come to Xuanzhen with Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing also has two wives, one named Yu and one named Shu.

These two wives bore him two sons, the eldest, Song Shihui, and the second, Song Shiyi.In addition to these two sons, there are two daughters.

But the two daughters did not leave their names in history.

Song Yingxing's two sons did not do well in history, because Song Yingsheng and Song Yingxing were survivors of the Ming Dynasty, so Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng's sons basically lived very poorly.

"Third Master, the Eldest Master has been waiting for you in the hall for a long time." The housekeeper opened the door and said in a calm tone.

When Song Yingxing left the train station, he had someone inform his family that he was coming back.

Song Yingxing walked into the door and asked: "But let me apply for a job with Mr. Zongbing?"
