Chapter 545 Luck Came
Wang Yu also got up early today today, and he was going to personally receive another distinguished guest.
"I have to say, your mind is indeed very coincidental, and it almost surprised the girl." Huang Yueying's itinerary was similar to Zhuge Liang's, but she was not interested in the courtyard, so she looked around and arrived at the martial arts academy without even stopping. But along the way, the little girl's mouth never stopped.
She shook her golden hair, pretending to be mature, but in fact said playfully: "That mustard sauce is indeed quite delicious, but the most interesting thing is the matching, I have also eaten raw river fish at home, but it is not delicious at all, and there are thorny ...... By the way, didn't we say we'd go to the dockyard to see the sea ship you built? How did you get here? There's nothing new here. ”
"Do you have to go to the beach to build a ship?" Wang Yu said with a smile: "Build the model first, and after the simulation, wouldn't it be more time-saving and labor-saving?" ”
"You have a point." Huang Yueying thought about it sideways and felt that it made sense, so she nodded happily and said with a smile: "Then let's look at the model first, I haven't built a big ship anyway." As he spoke, he turned around and ran forward, leaving Wang Yu with a pretty back that was fluttering.
Wang Yu originally thought that Diao Chan's personality was unique enough, but after seeing Huang Yueying, she found that even if this little girl's personality is put in the future generations, it is a bit different.
So far, he has never seen shyness and twisting on the other party's face, no matter what she is talking about marriage or what, she is so free and easy. It was only when she saw those ingenious mechanisms and novel techniques that she could see a different look on her face, an extremely focused expression.
Wang Yu has seen this kind of look a lot in later generations, those so-called scientific madmen, geeks and geniuses. When exposed to a new field or theory, the expression on the face is usually similar.
Wang Yu knew that he had found the right person.
Taishan Academy's weakest point at present is the craftsmanship.
At present, Wang Yu has collected a lot of craftsmen, and there are not a few who are exquisite, but there are very few who can link theory with practice. In an era when there was not even enough books for readers, artisans passed on. The only way to pass on the technology is to teach it by word of mouth and operate it in person.
This method of inheritance has many advantages, but it also has many disadvantages, the biggest one is that it is inefficient, and a master can only take one or two apprentices. Time is measured in years. In addition, the way of inheritance is also too practice-oriented, and not only is there no theory that has been formed, but even if there is, it often varies from person to person, because each master's personal experience and experience are completely different.
So. Even if Wang Yu recruited a lot of craftsmen, at most he could only improve the production efficiency of various workshops in Qingzhou, and it would not have an immediate effect on the improvement of technical standards and the formation of a system.
Craft. Not like agriculture.
The latter is a discipline that works slowly and carefully, and Wang Yu feels that within ten years, it can achieve some results. It's worth writing about. He established this discipline in preparation for the introduction of new species such as rice from the South Seas. The second is purely to build the system.
Establishing a system and maintaining the operation of the system is much more glorious than being an emperor, which is a great achievement!
Later generations know Columbus and Mazzelon, and how many people know who the kings of Spain and Portugal were at that time? Everyone knows that Lian Po, Li Mu, Wu Qi, Sun Bin and other famous generals of the Warring States Period, how many people remember the monarch they served?
King Zhao? There are many kings of Zhao Kingdom!
What he is doing now, and what he wants to do in the future, Wang Yu already has a rough plan, and realizing this plan is much more glorious than being an emperor. As a traverser, just being an emperor, how can you satisfy his appetite? Didn't many of the ancients succeed? Becoming the founder of the new era of the Ming Dynasty in China is the real unprecedented, unprecedented!
The foundation of all this is Taishan Academy.
In the future, there will be countless famous generals and ministers who will come out of here; There will be countless new ideas and ideas born from here; There will also be countless new technologies sprouting here.
Of course, Wang Yu has learned all the basic physical and chemical knowledge, but it is impossible for him to use his mind on it, someone must learn something from him, and quickly integrate it, like a tinder, to form a theoretical system of these knowledge, and then spread it out, so that more people can join in.
Wang Yu once counted on the disciples of the Mo family, but Xu Rong and Gongsun Du inherited not the skills of the Mo family, Xu Rong learned the art of war, and Gongsun Du learned the Mo family's governance philosophy. According to Gongsun Du, the Mo family's technical inheritance is someone else, and the trouble Xu Rong said may also come from the other party.
After receiving Gongsun Du's reply, Wang Yu could only temporarily dispel this idea.
Although Gongsun Du knew about the existence of that branch, he didn't know anything about its composition and leaders, and Xu Rong didn't leave any relevant information. If you want to find that line of Mo family disciples, you can only wait for the other party to come to the door to find trouble, when will you go?
Passive waiting is not Wang Yu's style.
In desperation, he could only turn his target to this genius girl who was well-known in later generations. I was worried that the other party was too young to bear this burden, but now it seems that age is often not a limit for all demon-level characters.
The lady Kong Ming in history was almost self-taught, so she also helped Zhuge Liang create magic weapons such as wooden oxen and flowing horses, and serial crossbows. In this life, I have instilled in her the most complete basic scientific theories since she was a child, so that she can grow up, what will the future look like?
As for the craft field, age and experience are more important, and if the girl is too young, will there be a problem, Wang Yu also thought of countermeasures. Just marry home as soon as possible.
In later generations, it was not legal at this time, but in the Han Dynasty, it was not uncommon for women in their early teens to marry. With the aura of the general's wife, who dares to be disrespectful?
Wang Yu is a little glad now, he let the two wives participate in the confidential event, just because he was afraid that they would be bored, but now it has become a tradition, and with this tradition, it is very simple to make people accept it.
"That's it? It doesn't look like a normal boat. Thinking about it, a girl's slightly surprised cry came from the riverside, and Wang Yu came back to his senses and walked forward quickly.
"See the Prince." Boatwrights and carpenters who were tinkering with several model boats by the river stood up.
"Didn't you say that? In the College, no one is required to perform secular rites except for the teacher? Wang Yu waved his hand. Directly asked: "The ship type has already become?" ”
"According to what you said, how many of each have been done, and the two days are being debugged, you are here, can you start the formal test now?" An old craftsman at the head bowed and replied.
Wang Yu nodded and raised his eyes to look.
Several models of wooden boats floated and sank in the waves, and he knew that this was to test the resistance of different ship types to wind and waves. The test was a pond with long wooden poles waiting by the pond. When the old craftsman gave the order, they jerked the wooden pole vigorously, and the water waves swelled with it, forming a wave effect.
This test method was proposed by Wang Yu and could not completely simulate the actual situation. However, some specific technical indicators can be measured and compared.
"It's over, it's going to be overturned, it's really turned over!" After a while, Huang Yueying suddenly screamed, adding a lot of tension to the test.
"Sure enough, the prince is wise!" The old craftsman was not surprised and turned to Wang Yu. His face was full of joy and admiration.
"Are you still happy that the boat capsized?" Huang Yueying was puzzled, and without waiting for Wang Yu to answer, she turned her head again and looked at the remaining boats. Suddenly realized: "So that's the case, you are testing the difference between the building ship and the new ship, the building ship overturned, and the other ships are fine." ”
Wang Yu was not surprised. But the craftsmen were taken aback.
They recently tinkered with this model ship here, and few outsiders could understand it. Although it was ordered by Wang Yu, no one openly ridiculed it or anything, but there were a lot of incomprehensible eyes, and no one could ever look at it, so they called out the doorway.
"yes." Wang Yu smiled and nodded, gesturing to the craftsmen to suspend their movements, then pointed to the remaining ships and asked, "Yueying, do you want to make a bet?" ”
"Bet?" The girl's eyes flashed, looked at Wang Yu, and then looked at the model, and asked very carefully: "What are you betting on?" ”
"Bet on the eye!" Wang Yu smiled and groaned: "As for which ship capsizes last, whoever guesses it will win, and you can ask the losing side to agree to a request." ”
"A request?" Huang Yueying thought for a while and replied, "It's not possible to marry someone, and I have to choose first." This answer is not leaky.
"Hmm...... No problem. Wang Yu's answer was not very pleasant, because he did have that plan.
Although Huang Yueying's riddle-like conditions are not difficult to guess, and they are not impossible to imagine, those methods are somewhat troublesome and even dangerous. He wondered, can he simply ignore this level, who thinks that the girl is very concerned about this, in this case, he can't destroy the girl's dream, he can only think of a way.
"Then, I choose ......" Although Huang Yueying's hair is golden, her skin is very fair, not the white of Caucasians, but a very healthy and delicate complexion.
She stretched out her finger, but she was indecided, and all the craftsmen saw it interestingly, knowing that Wang Yu was easy-going, but they had no scruples, and they all made plans as if they were funny.
"Choose the pointed one in the middle, this one is the most similar one among the ship types drawn by the prince, it must be right."
"Don't listen to him, the deck of that ship is too high, the keel is too high, and it can carry a lot of cargo, the prince said, the center of gravity of such a ship is not stable......"
"It's okay if you don't load? There is also ballast stone that is not loaded, which is not much lighter than cargo. ”
"Anyway, you can't be wrong with listening to me!"
"Ignore him, listen to him and lose."
There are several models, including the most used building ships of this era, as well as the pointed, streamlined ships painted by Wang Yu based on the impressions of later generations. Traditional Chinese ships have square decks, and people seem to believe that the larger the deck, the smoother it is, and the less likely it is to capsize.
In rivers and lakes, this law is true, but in navigation, it does not work at all. Among the many models, the first to capsize was the largest building ship.
The shipwrights were not very sure of Wang Yu's theory, but now they are convinced, and the facts are in front of them.
As a result, the people who gave advice to Huang Yueying ignored the few remaining traditional square-headed boats, and provided opinions with their different cognitions.
After all, Wang Yu was not a professional shipwright, although he knew some theories and could roughly sketch the outline of a wooden ship in the Age of Discovery, but he could not provide too many details, so he could only be explored by the shipwrights themselves. The dozen or so new ships look similar on the surface, but they actually have similarities and differences in terms of ship type, sails, waterline, cabin configuration and other aspects.
Not to mention that Huang Yueying saw it for the first time, even if it was the boatsmith who made these models by himself, or Wang Yu, who initiated this proposal, there was no certainty in his heart.
In the midst of the turmoil, Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang also arrived, said hello to Wang Yu, asked a few words with a smile, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were also interested, and carefully stood by the pond, observing with great interest.
"How?" When Jia Xu approached, Wang Yu lowered his voice and asked thoughtlessly.
"All the best." Jia Xu replied unexpectedly: "Shi Yuan is wooden on the surface, but he has an inner show, although his personality is different due to factors such as appearance, but the atmosphere in the academy is just right, even if Xu doesn't do anything, his problems will gradually improve...... Congratulations to the lord for another talent. ”
"Where's Kong Ming?" Wang Yu is not very worried about Pang Tong, Pang Tong is a role that no one values in history, what else is there to worry about giving such a person charcoal, is there anything to worry about, is there any fear that the other party will not repay him? He was worried about Kong Ming.
Like Guo Jia, Kong Ming is also a person with a very good idea, fortunately, it is a juvenile version, and it can still flicker, if it is an adult version, maybe he will have to be the same as Guo Jia again.
"Kong Ming, ......" Jia Xu groaned slightly, and after a while, when he spoke again, his tone was still a little uncertain.
"Kong Ming's mind is very mature, and it is difficult to change the concept of identification, and he is very thoughtful about things, and he is rarely influenced by the outside world. Now he is the first time he has come to Gaotang, and he has seen too many unheard of and unseen things, and he has been shocked too much, so he is a little shaken, and he will ...... in the future."
"That's right." Wang Yu was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, he was also relieved: "At least he won't have the idea of leaving for a short time, right?" ”
Jia Xu poked out three fingers and said categorically: "Within three years, it will be safe." ”
"Good." Wang Yu nodded, and was about to say something, but he saw Huang Yueying pointing at him and shouting in a crisp voice: "I choose this ship!" ”
When Wang Yu raised his eyes and looked urgently, he found that Huang Yueying had chosen a ship that everyone was not optimistic about. Not only was the model filled with cargo, but when the ballast was also placed, the waterline was pressed low, not to mention in the wind and waves, even when the wind and waves were calm, it looked like it was about to sink at any time.
The craftsmen sighed, the girl was born cute, but not afraid of life, but also showed her talent in craftsmanship, everyone was more or less close, and they all felt sorry for her at the moment.
Wang Yu smiled, his smile was meaningful, his heart was full of joy, he waved his hand and said, "Let's start." ”
Kong Ming, who thought he would not come, came;
I thought that Pang Tong, who was a little tricky, was not as difficult to contact as I imagined;
And Huang Yueying's talent is even higher than he imagined......
Luck, here it is again!
