After everyone dispersed, Liu Che waved his hand again and dismissed the maids and eunuchs in the palace, leaving only Wang Dao to serve him.
"In the past few days, you have become familiar with the workshops and craftsmen of Sixian Garden. I think you should have some insights. Let's talk to Gu Gu..." Liu Che asked softly.
After all, Yang Yi was a little cautious and still couldn't let go. He lowered his head and expressed a few opinions to Liu Che.
Liu Che asked Wang Dao to write down all these opinions and ordered: "Bring these recorded opinions to Zhang Tang, and if there are any, you can correct them and if they are not, you can encourage them..."
"No!" Wang Dao nodded.
After hearing this, Yang Yi felt quite moved in his heart. He just felt that the style of this prince was indeed somewhat different from the Liu family's legendary style.
At the very least, be respectful.
The interactions these days also showed that the prince had no prejudice against the Mohist family.
He even respected the Mohist beliefs and habits.
For example, he was allowed to walk barefoot in the palace.
In this case, perhaps the teachers and senior brothers in my sect can also try to assist this person.
only……
Yang Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally asked: "Let me tell you, my family, I may not know something. Our Mohist family has a system, and those who want to be officials need to promote and promote our Mohist thoughts and ideas..."
"Gu Zhi!" He was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Liu Che with a wave of his hand. He only heard Liu Che say: "Let a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend. Gu has always admired it... It's just..."
Liu Che stood up and looked at him, and said solemnly: "Differences in ideas cannot be brought into work. Academic matters belong to academics, and political matters belong to politics. Anyone who transcends will not be tolerated. Do you understand?
"
When Yang Yi heard this, he said respectfully: "I understand!"
As long as the prince can maintain this attitude, it will be the greatest benefit to the Mo family.
When it comes to competition and head-to-head confrontation, whether it is literary debate or military debate, the Mohists have never been afraid of other schools of thought.
Liu Che walked up to Yang Yi, looked at him, and pondered for a moment. Finally he said: "You also learned about Baigong's work in Sixian Garden. Next, I have several tasks for you!"
"Please give me your orders, and I will do my best to serve my family!" Yang Yi lowered his head and said solemnly.
"The first thing is to research this thing for Gu as soon as possible to see what proportion can meet Gu's requirements. Regardless of method or time, the sooner the better!" Liu Che said and filled up a sheet.
The white paper with the writing on it was handed to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi took it and took a look, and was stunned for a moment.
I saw the beginning of the paper: If you want to combine one thing, combine it with water. It will dry in ten days and become as solid as a rock. It is called cement, and the ingredients are: some furnace ash or enamel fragments ground into powder, some quicklime, and gypsum.
Several.
This is a kind of cement product that came into being in later generations when the dynasty was buzzing.
It is the easiest version of cement to prepare and manufacture in human history.
May be subject to many limitations in terms of quality and use.
But, this soil cement is still cement!
In the era before time travel, when Liu Che was very young, he had seen his elders grind some limestone and clay into flour, then calcined it and then added slag or something, and finally made this kind of soil cement by dividing three times, five times, and two times.
, use it as a step for your own home.
It can be said to be a simple and crude method, which is actually a method invented and created by the working people using their own wisdom when they were extremely short of material.
However, as society gradually became richer, cement was no longer a luxury. Therefore, after Liu Che went to school, this kind of home-made cement disappeared.
Therefore, Liu Che himself did not remember the formula and manufacturing process of this local cement.
But it doesn't matter.
In his previous life, Yang Yi relied on the clues given by Liu Che to prepare soil cement in the Western Han Dynasty in just one year. Therefore, Liu Che already knew the specific formula.
I just forgot the proportions and stuff.
"With the formula in this life, even if Yang Yi is not as powerful as in his previous life, he should be able to unearth cement in a short time, right?" Liu Che thought to himself.
This indigenous cement is certainly not as good as modern industrial cement.
But for Liu Che's next big water conservancy project, it can be said to be a magical tool.
The only disadvantage may be that the soil and cement consume a lot of energy and are very harmful to the environment and workers.
But, when developing industry, where can there be no pollution?
Yang Yi thought for a while and thought: Since the prince has given the formula, I will give it a try...
So he nodded and said: "Please continue to give me instructions!"
In Yang Yi's opinion, this matter is just a hands-on job, and the amount is not large. It only requires supervision and supervision.
It is far from what Yang Yi had in mind to create a world-changing device with his hands.
After all, Yang Yi is still young and has limited knowledge. It is impossible for him to estimate the changes that cement will have on the world.
Liu Che remembered very clearly that in his previous life, Yang Yi couldn't close his mouth after seeing the power of Tufa's cement.
Therefore, he was too lazy to say more and continued: "Secondly, I told you earlier that I wanted to build something to draw water from the river and irrigate the fields. You can start to study this matter!"
This waterwheel actually shares many principles with the hydraulic forging press. Basically, once you have a waterwheel, you can also create basic hydraulic forging facilities.
Liu Che had seen some hydraulic rice pounding machinery before traveling through time. Therefore, he knew that the principles of the two were interlinked. The only difficulty was the issue of output power.
If you want to forge plate armor, the output power of the hydraulic forging press must at least reach the point where it can swing a hammer of tens of kilograms day and night.
As for this research and development work, Liu Che still cannot see the light of the day within a few years.
It would be better to first develop machinery such as waterwheels and hydraulic rice pounding, use these relatively simple basic technologies to accumulate experience and train craftsmen, and then promote hydraulic forging presses with greater output power. This is more appropriate, and it can also
Benefit the country and the people.
"Third, I plan to classify and name the world's ores. You can convey this news to the Momen sages. If you are interested, you can come to Chang'an to participate in this matter!" Liu Che said lightly.
This is considered a bait he threw out.
It is used to attract some Mohist technical geeks, and at the same time, it can also be regarded as paving the way for the future compilation of the Western Han Dynasty version of the encyclopedia.
Liu Che planned to use the power of the country in the future to compile an encyclopedia covering geography, biology, nature and science, as a basic book for popular science for local officials with more than 800 stone and court officials with more than 1,000 stone.
To avoid the appearance of someone who reads like a nerd and cannot even understand basic common sense and makes a lot of jokes.
At the same time, Liu Che knew better that the advent of encyclopedias like this would greatly expand people's horizons, so that at least the elite would not be too stupid.
For a dynasty, ensuring that the majority of its elite bureaucratic class is not stupid is a top priority that affects the life and death of the dynasty.
At this moment, for Liu Che, for the time being, this matter is just a cover to avoid too much interference from public opinion.
Regarding the introduction of Mohism, Liu Che feels that it is better to be cautious and slowly test the public opinion's reaction! (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
