Chapter 340 It doesn't matter if you don't understand this
Emperor Gan Wu did not continue to ask about this matter.
He just had some doubts about the feasibility of cutting off a river to build a hydropower station.
"Is it really feasible to cut off the river and build a hydropower station?" Emperor Gan Wu looked a little dazed, feeling like he was dreaming.
Li Changfeng said confidently: "Of course, when did you deceive your father?"
This is why Li Changfeng deliberately displayed the electric lights, which attracted Emperor Gan Wu's attention and explained so many reasons in detail.
The construction of a hydropower station requires the strong support of Emperor Gan Wu.
He now has too many industries and has developed and expanded too quickly, so there is not enough relevant talents.
The people under his command can only provide technical guidance, provide relevant core equipment, and provide specific manpower official cooperation. All things need to be completed with the support of Emperor Gan Wu.
Based on the successful experience of the Ministry of Railways, in order not to be subject to various constraints, Li Changfeng decided to establish the Ministry of Electricity.
Although Emperor Gan Wu still finds it difficult to accept it, he still chooses to believe Li Changfeng: "Okay, then how do you need me to cooperate?"
Li Changfeng immediately expressed his request.
He finally mentioned that the actual construction will not start until the beginning of the next spring, and now it is only the preliminary preparations.
Emperor Gan Wu happily agreed.
After leaving the palace, Li Changfeng sent a team of men to start geological exploration and site selection.
According to his plan, this hydropower station must meet the needs of the scientific research institute and the palace, and on this basis, consider meeting the needs of the people in the capital.
At the same time, the relevant equipment arrived at the palace and began to be installed.
During this period, the incident of Li Changfeng inventing the electric light spread in the capital, and everyone was shocked.
The streets, men, women, young and old are discussing this matter.
"Have you heard that? His Highness the Ninth Prince has made a new invention, a lantern that can be lit without candles and lamp oil!"
"No, that's not a lantern, its name is an electric lamp!"
"Yes, I heard that it is powered, but I just don't know what the store is. It's invisible and intangible! "
"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince has always been imaginative in his work, who can think clearly?"
“…”
All the powerful people in the capital also knew about this.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the grand dynasty meeting again.
The civil and military officials still looked at each other with each other, and entered the palace at the time point and walked towards Xuanzheng Hall.
From afar, they saw that today's Xuanzheng Hall was different from the past, and the lights outside were very bright.
Looking inside through the window, it was also very bright.
Chen Dingyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, said in a little surprised: "Why is the Xuanzheng Hall so bright today?"
Feng Quji was also full of confusion, and then seemed to have thought of something. His expression became excited and he didn't say anything. He quickly ran towards Xuanzheng Palace.
Ye Qingcang was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "Can it be that the light of His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince has been installed in the palace?"
Although the lights are spread everywhere these days, they are all important officials in the court, so it is not easy to watch after the curfew.
Therefore, most of them have never seen electric lights.
When everyone heard Ye Qingcang's words, they couldn't help but feel curious and accelerated their pace to run towards Xuanzheng Hall.
Soon, they were two electric lights hanging at the entrance of the hall.
"It's true as the legendary, there are no candles and no lamp oil!"
"Oh my God, how does this emit light?"
"The light is too bright. It would be great if my house had such a light. It wouldn't be so troublesome to get up at night!"
“…”
After a burst of exclamation, the ministers entered the hall.
There are more electric lights inside, illuminating Xuanzheng Hall. The lights are like little suns, attracting everyone's attention.
Just as everyone was talking, Li Changfeng came late with yawning Shanshan.
When the ministers saw him, they immediately surrounded him.
"Your Highness, why does the electric light have no candle oil on it?"
"I heard that electricity made the lights light up, so what exactly is it?"
"Is this thing expensive? When will you sell it? I also want to install such a set in the mansion."
"That's right, your highness, don't sell it too expensive!"
“…”
Li Changfeng was not patient and popularized his physics knowledge with them. However, several ministers expressed their desire to buy electric lights, which made him very happy.
This shows that the electricity market is very good and you will definitely make a lot of money in the future.
As for selling power generation equipment, Li Changfeng was not interested in that.
First, I don’t like that little money.
Second, the research and manufacturing tasks of the research and manufacturing institutes are too heavy now, and there is not so much manpower and time to build more generators to sell.
After dealing with it casually, Emperor Qianwu soon came.
After the ministers worshipped, Emperor Qianwu opened the door and pointed at the lights in the hall, and said, "My dear friends, what about this thing?"
The Prime Minister Feng Quji, who has always been low-key and does not express his opinions, seemed very active and was the first to stand up and said, "This thing is really a clever thing. If everyone can use this thing in Daqian, it will definitely be a pair.
A prosperous scene!”
Ye Qingcang stood up the second time: "Your Majesty, this thing is also of great use in the army. With this thing help, the defenders from all over the country can see more clearly and farther away, and are not afraid of enemy attacks."
Other ministers also expressed their opinions, all of which were praises.
Emperor Qianwu was very happy with his opinions being unified.
He smiled proudly and said, "This thing was invented by my nine sons Changfeng. He proposed to establish the Ministry of Electricity and began to prepare for the construction of a hydropower station. Today, he discussed this matter in the court."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers looked confused.
The Ministry of Electric Power and others can understand that they must be the same organization as the Ministry of Railways. This kind of function and responsibility is clear, and the efficiency it shows is also impressive.
But this hydropower station is difficult for them to understand.
What exactly is this?
Not to mention them, even Emperor Gan Wu had only a slight understanding and could only look at Li Changfeng.
"Changfeng, please explain."
Li Changfeng nodded, feeling helpless.
After thinking about it, he said briefly: "It is to cut off the river and build a factory to generate electricity... Electricity is something that cannot be seen and touched, it is something that can light up the lights. With a hydropower station, it can provide a continuous stream of electricity. , Everyone can use electric lights.”
Although he had tried his best to explain in the most easy-to-understand language, the ministers were still confused.
Li Changfeng said helplessly: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand this. You just need to wait and install the lights at home."
Gu Tiancheng, the Minister of Works, thought for a while, then asked: "Will the hydropower station be built in the river be washed away by water?"
Li Changfeng smiled and said, "Of course not. Lord Gu underestimated the stability of the reinforced concrete structure."
"But, how to construct in the water?"
"This prince has his own way."
Gu Tiancheng opened his mouth and then, but in the end he still didn't ask any other questions.
What Li Changfeng said is really incredible.
He had many questions, but didn't know where to start.
