Chapter 547 Bring the princes and grandsons to Guanzhou
Chapter 547: Let’s take all the princes, princes and grandchildren to Guanzhou
Su Chen sighed and looked at the generals: "Since it has been leaked, let the soldiers be more careful!"
"With so many things that are eaten inside and outside the Tang Dynasty, gunpowder will definitely appear in the hands of the enemies of the Tang Dynasty soon."
Everyone in the room had dark faces: It used to be fun to blow up others with bombs, but now I feel depressed when others blow them up!
Su Chen was even more depressed because he had to go to a big restaurant.
If the big eater throws bombs at himself, then he will cry to death!
Now that the matter has come out, Li Er and a group of civil and military ministers can only hold their noses and suffer.
The furious Li Er beheaded the head of a gunpowder workshop, who was said to be a prince!
Cheng Yaojin led his army to Weizhou on the same day, accompanied by Sun Fujia, the young minister of Dali Temple.
Li Er's order was to conduct a thorough investigation to find out the origin of the military force that attacked Du Ruhui. All relevant personnel would not be spared.
Everything that needs to be done has been done. Whether Du Ruhui can escape depends on God's will.
After finishing their work, Li Er left Su Chen to have a meal in the palace.
"When will we leave for Guanzhou?"
"I'll leave tomorrow. I'm here today to say goodbye to His Majesty!"
Li Er raised his wine glass: "This meal will be considered a practice for you!"
"By the way, the Queen mentioned to me years ago that she would like a group of princes to study with you for a period of time. I am right! Let them go to Guanzhou with you tomorrow!"
"Ahem!"
Su Chen almost choked to death on a sip of wine!
"Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know what's going on in Guanzhou right now. It's too dangerous for you to let a bunch of princes go there."
"And for the next period of time, I will be very busy and will not have time to teach the princes."
Li Er said calmly: "I didn't intend for you to teach them anything. I just wanted them to go out and experience the sufferings of the people."
"I went to Guanzhou to build roads, mine, and smelt iron. Just find a job for them!"
"Everyone doesn't know how to cherish their own life if they don't suffer a little bit."
Su Chen said with a headache: "Even if His Majesty trains them again, there is no need to let them run to Guanzhou!"
"Hmph! Do you think that if you don't let them leave Chang'an, who can control these ignorant people?"
"Not only the princes, but also the children of the royal relatives and relatives, all who are willing to go will follow!"
Su Chen's eyes darkened: "Your Majesty, I will go to Dashi to find the prime minister of Dashi and fight hard!"
Li Er glared at Su Chen: "Just arrange work for them. Don't worry about anything else. I will send someone to follow."
"Of course, if someone admires your knowledge, you should take some time to give some advice."
"Ke'er has told me several times that he wants to learn how to make steam engines from you. Let's see if he is talented enough and can learn the knowledge you have."
Su Chen despised Li Er fiercely in his heart: He went round and round just for this!
It seems that Li Er is obsessed with steam engines and wants to send his son to learn the knowledge!
"His Royal Highness, King Wu, does he still have hobbies here?"
"The manufacture of steam engines belongs to the science of physics. It is not a difficult knowledge, but relies more on exquisite technology and craftsmanship."
"As long as you work hard, you can learn it. It's just a matter of how fast you learn knowledge. However, all geophysics requires a solid foundation in mathematics. How is His Highness King Wu's mathematics score?"
Li Er thought for a while: "Mathematics?
He studied arithmetic with Wang Xiaotong for a while, so he should be pretty good at it!"
Su Chen thought for a while: "How about this? I'll go back and let the gentlemen in the village see how His Royal Highness King Wu and the other princes are in mathematics. If they are qualified, let him and the children in the village learn how to make steam engines and trains.
Other knowledge of objects.
If that doesn’t work, let them study mathematics for a period of time first.”
Li Er frowned and said, "Then you plan to teach your children in your village how to make steam engines?"
"yes!"
"The most I can do is build the first steam engine train, and the rest will have to be left to others."
"The steam engine is just a power machine for trains. It has many other uses. The demand will be huge in the future. We can't just leave them all to Weichen. Even if Weichen is exhausted, we can still make a few of them."
Seeing that Li Er was still frowning, Su Chen smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, in ten or eight years, steam engines will be as common as four-wheeled carriages!"
Li Er sighed and said: "The leakage of the gunpowder formula this time makes me a little worried. If something like a train falls into the hands of an enemy..."
Su Chen smiled and said: "A steam engine is no better than gunpowder. It not only requires a certain knowledge of physics, but also a complete foundation of metal smelting and many mechanical design talents. Even if I post the drawings all over the street, every ten or eight years
Kung Fu, no one else can even think of making it."
"And by the time they worked so hard to make the basic steam engine, my steam engine has been updated for many generations."
Li Er was stunned: "Update?"
"Yes! Now it is just the most basic first generation with the weakest performance. In the future, with the development of technology and the improvement of the strength of metal materials, the performance of the steam engine will become more and more powerful!"
"However, this requires the accumulation of time and technology. Now there is not much room for improvement in the technical level of my craftsmen, and the steelmaking technology of Guanzhou Iron and Steel Plant cannot be improved in a short time."
Li Er listened to Su Chen talking there and stayed for a long time, then asked: "When the children in your village grow up, can all these things you mentioned be improved?"
Su Chen smiled and said: "Of course, the current batch of craftsmen are trained through their original skills and have not learned systematic knowledge at all. Those young apprentices and children in the village are the hope of the future."
Li Er rubbed his head: "Then when you teach the children in your village, you also teach those princes!"
Su Chen wondered: "This may be a bit difficult. I'm afraid they won't understand. You can try a few with good basics."
"For the rest, let them follow the teachers in the village to complete their math basics."
Li Er glared at Su Chen: "Although these princes are a bit naughty, they only started doing it when they got older in the past two years. They also studied seriously with famous teachers before."
"Not as good as a group of farm children taught by your Mr. Yamano?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't look down on me. The children in the village have never read Confucian classics, but if you pick one out of mathematics and the study of things, you can defeat the famous teacher you call Your Majesty."
"I used to teach the math teacher in the village myself. There is no comparison between the Wang Xiaotong you mentioned and him."
Li Er's face was full of disbelief, but after thinking about it, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's up to you, arrange it how you want."
Su Chen nodded and said: "Well, after arriving in Guanzhou, let the gentlemen test their basic skills first."
