As we all know, naming Lao Zhu's family is a difficult problem. When it comes time to name it, you will find that basically all the common words have been used.
Later, Lao Zhu’s family basically made up their own characters for fun!
Learn about the periodic table of elements?
There are many uncommon words in it, all of which were the contributions made by the old Zhu family when naming the name.
Zhu Hongyu thought about it over and over, and suddenly remembered, no matter what, those words have been used.
I will be the emperor in the future, and my son will be the prince. It is up to others to take the initiative to avoid naming the prince.
Why do you worry so much?
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Hongyu spoke.
"How about calling me Zhu Caikun?"
"The Kun of Qian and Kun! It touches the sky, and Kun touches the earth, which means it is broad and broad!"
In fact, Zhu Hongyu was respectful and insensitive to the generation set by Comrade Lao Zhu.
It's easy to say that I am a senior with the word "Hong"!
But in my son's generation, naming is really difficult.
No matter what word comes after the word "cai", it will always have the temperament of a rich man.
Especially with the surname Zhu!
A real rich man!
Damn it!
Of course, although Zhu Hongyu is not very interested in the legacy left by Comrade Zhu.
But he has no intention of not using it!
In order to show that he inherited the legitimacy of the Ming Dynasty's orthodoxy, Zhu Hongyu was really unwilling to express his uniqueness on such a small issue.
Just do what Lao Zhu wants!
No matter what, if the name is boring, then let it be boring!
A bad name makes a living!
Well, it’s not you who is stupid anyway!
When Li Lingxiu heard this, she knelt on the ground excitedly and spoke to Zhu Hongyu.
"I would like to thank His Highness for the name on behalf of Kun'er!"
Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly, stretched out his hand to lift Li Lingxiu up, and said.
"What is this? Kun'er is also an orphan!"
Zhu Hongyu teased his son for a while, saying that he would come to Li Lingxiu's house to sleep tonight, and then left Li Lingxiu's courtyard.
Then, he went to visit his other concubines, each of whom gave them some comfort.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Hongyu went to handle official business again.
…
In the study, Zhu Hongyu had just sat down when someone came in to report.
"Your Highness, Wang An, the director of the research institute, wants to see you!"
Zhu Hongyu put down his brush, showed an interested expression on his face, and said casually.
"Tell him to come in!"
Wang An, the director of the institute, is a somewhat dull and withdrawn person.
What sounds good is called restraint, but what sounds bad is called social fear.
He likes to immerse himself in work and does not like to be in the limelight. Basically, he never runs to Zhu Hongyu to increase his sense of presence.
In the past, every time he asked to see Zhu Hongyu, it was because the research institute had achieved technological breakthroughs and came to Zhu Hongyu to report his merits.
Now he asked for a meeting this time, presumably because of the technological breakthrough made by the research institute.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Zhu Hongyu's face, and he began to look forward to what surprise Wang An could bring him this time.
Not long after, Wang An strode into Zhu Hongyu's study.
At this time, Wang An was wearing an official robe, with glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he had a bookish air about him.
But the stains on his cuffs and the calluses on his palms tell Zhu Hongyu that he is a truly hard-working official.
Zhu Hongyu smiled slightly and asked.
"Do you know if Wang Qing's family has any good news that you want to report to me?"
Zhu Hongyu has full confidence in Wang An.
Wang An nodded and said.
"Yes, Your Highness, the institute has made major breakthroughs in three aspects. I am here to report the specific news to Your Highness!"
Zhu Hongyu showed an interested expression on his face and asked.
"Tell me about it, which areas have made major breakthroughs?"
Wang An bowed slightly, and then handed a stack of documents in his hand to Zhu Hongyu's desk.
Zhu Hongyu took the document and started reading it casually.
Wang An explained from the side.
"Your Highness, this research institute has made breakthroughs in three main aspects!"
"The first is the application technology of steam engines!"
"The institute has built a simple steam locomotive and conducted preliminary experiments. The specific experimental data has been made into a written report."
Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and started reading.
The institute built a section of closed-loop railway in Luzon that was just over one mile long. The steam locomotive built by the institute was an experiment conducted on that section of closed-loop railway.
In Zhu Hong's experiment, the steam locomotive reached a top speed of ten kilometers per hour without any load on the front.
After running continuously for more than three hours, the front of the steam locomotive broke down.
The first experiment is over!
In the second experiment, the steam locomotive pulled a carriage. The weight of the carriage itself, plus the cargo in the carriage, reached a total load of five tons.
After the steam locomotive had a load of five tons, its top speed reached six kilometers per hour.
Well, not much faster than walking.
A very pitiful number!
After running continuously for more than five hours, the steam locomotive broke down on its front end.
The second experiment is over!
Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and said.
"Well done, I am very satisfied with the result!"
"The institute must continue to work hard."
In general, current steam locomotives still do not have practical value due to problems with speed and running time.
But in such a short period of time, Zhu Hongyu was very satisfied that the research institute could produce such results.
Wang An continued.
"Your Highness, in addition to the application experiments of steam locomotives, there are also research and development experiments of steam ships."
"The institute conducted a steam engine shipboard experiment!"
"But from the current point of view, even if several steam engines are used to form a steam unit, the operating power it can provide is still not enough to drive the ship."
"Currently, even if the steam engine is put on the ship, it can only be used as auxiliary power!"
"It's still an auxiliary power that's not very efficient!"
Zhu Hongyu nodded again.
Again, he was very satisfied that Ming's researchers could achieve this level.
Just develop slowly. Now he, Zhu Hongyu, is still young and can afford to wait.
"Except for the research and development of steam engines, what are the remaining two aspects?"
Wang An then spoke.
“Then there’s research on electrical applications!”
"The first is electric light technology, and the second is telegraph technology!"
"At present, both technologies have practical value."
"The electric light is ready for use, but the bulbs need to be replaced frequently!"
"The telegraph has unparalleled efficiency advantages in information transmission."
“It’s just that the cost of installing wires is too high!”
At present, the material with the best power conduction effect is copper metal.
At present, wires can only be made of copper!
And what is copper?
Copper can be used to mint coins, copper is money!
To use copper to make wires, even if Zhu Hongyu owns the copper mines in Luzon, the cost is too high.
