Yang Reform thought about it for a while, and felt that he had to find something to do for his black science and technology base, this Taoism can't always engage in superstition, to become a science and technology education, you must learn scientific and cultural knowledge, you have to engage in scientific experiments, set this mind, Yang Reform began to fool and educate his own science and technology education leader.

"Zhang Xianyong."

"The minister is here." Zhang Xianyong replied honestly.

"Did you understand what I was talking to about John Tang just now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... I didn't understand a word......" Zhang Xianyong never dared to say that he understood or understood some truth on this issue, but he didn't intervene a word just now. If you can understand a thing or two, you won't even have the capital to participate in the discussion.

"I know you don't understand, but I do......" Yang said in his heart, if you can understand this, you can only play superstition, probably the sun will come out of the west.

“…… Zhang Xianyong, take this and take a closer look...... "Yang Reform handed the glass tube to Wang Chengen, and Wang Chengen handed it to Zhang Xianyong.

Zhang Xianyong looked at the glass tube again and again, but he really didn't see anything famous, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, such pure glass must be produced by Liulizhai, and other people can't make such pure glass......"

"......" Yang Reform was speechless, Liulizhai is his own family business, I don't know better than you? You want you to say?

"Do you see what's the use of this thing? It's not that it was made. "Yang Gengai began to educate his own black technology leaders.

"Back to Your Majesty, I remember that Your Majesty and the Yiren missionary said that you can measure the heat and cold of water, but Your Majesty also said that it is not faster to try it by hand than with this pipe? So the minister thought that this thing was useless...... "Zhang Xianyong finally found something to say.

"Hmph...... You have this in mind, I ask you, even if you are generally warm water, do you also put your hand in the boiling water for the interview? If it's poisonous water, or water that corrupts people's hands, will you put your hand in it and try it? "Yang Reform is very disdainful, this is water, if it is sulfuric acid, it is a poisonous liquid, do you also try it? It's really a pig's head.

"This ......" Zhang Xianyong didn't say anything more, and muttered in his heart: Isn't the boiling water bubbling on it? We can see that we will definitely not try it with our hands! As for the poisonous water, you should be able to smell it......" I mean, just now that guy John Tang said that the air in the glass tube will become larger when heated, and the volume will become smaller when it is cold, so some water is needed to fill the smaller part, so the water surface in the glass tube will rise, this phenomenon, do you understand? Yang Reform continued to explain.

"This ...... Chen, I really don't understand...... "How could Zhang Xianyong understand this, all he understands is chanting mantras, drawing talismans, meditating, and how to fool others with takeout."

"Forget it, you don't understand this to you, forget it, you take this thing back, test it well, see if what John Tang said is true or false, and see what you can research." Yang Reform originally wanted to give this thermometer to Taoism to do, but it seemed that this Taoism would not understand this, so he could only do it himself.

Yang Reform felt that since this thermometer came out, it was better to improve it himself, this paragraph, Yang Reform planned to take a little time, concentrate on some inventions, for example, the distiller for purifying alcohol, and the separation tower for refining oil, these things are relatively important, as long as they provide creativity, skilled craftsmen, they have in their own court.

Yang Reform also thought in his heart, this Taoism really needs to be reformed, otherwise, it will be very weak! Otherwise, this work of studying thermometers can be completely handed over to Taoism.

"Your Ministers obey." Zhang Xianyong didn't get any color here with the emperor, and he was a gray man who touched his nose. I can only take the glass tube given by the emperor and say goodbye.

"Wait, since you're here, bring back two of the telescopes, although this is not an astronomical telescope, but you can still use it to observe celestial bodies, the principle of this telescope, there is a booklet, called "The Telescope Says", you also take it back to study and study, you don't have the time and energy to study alone, then let the entire Taoist people study it, and strive to study this "Telescope Theory" thoroughly, which is considered the task I gave you Taoism." Yang Reform wants to transform Taoism into a scientific religion and become the center of his own black technology, but unfortunately, this Taoism is not powerful, in addition to engaging in superstition, I don't know anything about it, Yang Reform can only give them the most basic scientific research books, let them learn slowly. As a result, Yang Reform gave Taoism its first learning task.

"The minister's decree must let the Taoists carefully understand the truth in this book. I must study this thoroughly. Zhang Xianyong has made up his mind, he must understand this, otherwise, the next time he meets that Yiren missionary, won't he be a companion again?

"By the way, the magnifying glass I gave you last time can magnify small things, one word becomes as big as two words, I thought, if this magnifying glass can magnify this word threefold, or even thirty times, or three hundred times, you say, will you see a magical world? Didn't the Buddha say that there are 3,000 worlds and 100,000 living beings in a drop of water? A drop of water, we can't see anything in it with the naked eye, but, I thought, if we use a magnifying glass to magnify it to thirty or three hundred times, we should be able to see it clearly at a glance, Zhang Zhenren, do you think my proposal is very interesting? The principle should be found in "Telescope Theory", and this magnifying glass is the key to making a telescope. "Yang gave his science and technology center its first manufacturing task.

"Ahh ......" Zhang Xianyong didn't know what to say, the emperor's mind was really hard to guess! However, the emperor's proposal, obviously also hit Zhang Xianyong's curiosity, to be honest, in China, Taoism and Buddhism, that is integrated with each other, Taoism to Buddhism allusions, scriptures, that is not strange at all, listening to the emperor talk about this, naturally understand what is going on, but also a great increase in interest, if you can really take a look at the Buddha said that a drop of water in the 100,000 living beings, Zhang Xianyong felt, he did not live in vain, this, maybe more energetic than practice or something, after all, seeing is believing, It's much more reliable than that ethereal immortal.

"Poor Dao is ordered, and he will definitely study what His Majesty said together with the Taoist people and give His Majesty an explanation." Zhang Xianyong knew that the emperor's intention was to let Taoism do something seemingly incredible, to pass on the avenue of gods, this matter can be regarded as a beginning, Zhang Xianyong himself was also interested, and immediately agreed.

"Okay, I won't keep you, study these things, if you lack money, you can pay a little from me, and if you need glass, you can use my name in Liulizhai, and they will give you accommodation." Yang reform's investment in science and technology is never stingy.

"Poor Dao thanks Your Majesty for the gift, if there is no reward from Your Majesty, Poor Dao doesn't know where to get glass, a little money, not enough to worry about, and I don't dare to bother Your Majesty, Poor Dao still has some surplus wealth...... "Zhang Xianyong thanked the emperor for the convenience given to them, and did not dare to accept the emperor's money, their Taoism is not so poor that they can't even take out this money.

......, "Companion, let's go to the country, it's a lot of time!" "I was going to go to Guozijian today, but I delayed the two monks.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Chengen had already reminded the emperor, but the emperor couldn't get out of his body, and he had no choice but to wait, and now he was finally free, and he could finally go to Guozijian.

Today, Yang Reform gave his first lesson to his science and technology center, Taoism, gave the first popular science book, and also gave the first manufacturing task, hoping that this Taoism would not disappoint him and change from a superstitious religion to a Scientology. In the seventeenth century, it was the era of rapid development of science and technology and the take-off of science and technology.

…… The common people, always kind, heard that the emperor traveled, they all came to watch, saw the emperor's motorcade passing by, knelt down and shouted long live, the momentum, so great that half of Yanjing City could hear it.

Now this emperor is a rare good emperor in the world, clear and upright, caring for the people, for the benefit of the people, knocking down Wei Zhongxian, not to mention, just spending tens of millions of taels of silver to relieve the disaster, it is moving, known as "do not give up, do not abandon", as long as the people have the emperor in their hearts, the emperor will never give up any of the people, such an emperor, the people are loved, thinking that he suffered a disaster that day, and he can also enjoy the emperor's promise not to give up, the people's attitude towards the emperor, It had never been so close.

It was the first time for Yang Reform to enjoy such treatment, he used to stay at home every day, or he came out of civilian clothes, but he didn't expect that the ancient people were so enthusiastic about the emperor.

Yang Reform really wanted to stick his head out to see what the situation was outside, but think about it, he would have to go to the street in civilian clothes after he said it, so he would be exempted, otherwise, as soon as he left the palace, he would be recognized, how unhappy, Yang Reform could only hold back and not look at the situation outside, thinking about when to install glass on this window, and then get some color, so that he could see the situation outside.

The people shouted long live is an unexpected thing, alarmed the high-ranking officials of the entire Yanjing City, this earth-shattering shout, so that many people are frightened, some people think that it is the people who shout injustice, some people think that it is where the rebellion, and some people think that it is the Donglu called, because the emperor has speculated that the Donglu may enter the customs.

As a result, some people began to secretly pack up their belongings, and if the preparations were not right, they would leave, and those who were more determined should quickly send someone to see what was going on...... In the yamen of the Ministry of War, Liu Yanyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was drinking tea leisurely, waiting to go home from work, when he suddenly heard bursts of shouts from the north, and he was so frightened that the teacups were thrown to the ground, thinking that there was a rebellion and entered the capital. But it's not right to think about it! The walls of this capital are several feet high, and there are countless soldiers, how can it be broken through silently like this? Call someone to see it now!

Liu Yanyuan has already summoned the big and small heads of the military department, the waiters, the outsiders, a lot of them, anxiously waiting, in case something happens, it can also be dealt with quickly, a bunch of people, large and small, are all worried about this burst, don't have anything! All of them looked anxious.

Not long after, the people who went to check it came back and reported that it was the people who saw His Majesty's motorvoy passing by, and they were grateful for His Majesty's life, and they fell to the ground one after another, shouting long live.

The faces of the big and small officials are all abnormal, why is the reputation of this emperor so high all of a sudden? Just go out, that is, all the people chanted, kneeling along the street, and the sound shook the capital, this reputation and prestige are inevitably too high...... Outside the gate of Guozi Prison, everyone has been waiting for a long time, and after more than an hour, their legs are numb, and they thought that the emperor would not come,...... The shouts that just resounded through half of Yanjing City frightened them, and they quickly sent someone to inquire what was going on, and when they asked, it turned out that the emperor's motorcade passed by, and the people shouted long live.

When we arrived at Guozijian, the street was blocked, and the chanting and kneeling along the street came to an end.

"The prince of the country is the priest of the wine, Lin Zhu leads the prince of the country to see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Lin Zhu is fifty years old, and he is an old man with a stubborn surname and good spirits.

A large number of people in the back also bowed: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live...... although the voice is also loud, but compared with the scene of thousands of people kneeling down and chanting along the street just now, it is really not enough to see.

"Let's be flat." Yang Gai said. Only then did the crowd rise up.

Under the leadership of Lin Zhu, Yang Reform officially visited and inspected the Guozijian, which was very different from the last time he came here in casual clothes.

"You're Lin Zhu? The kokuko priest wine? Yang Reform asked curiously, when he first came to Guozijian, it was because this one did not arrive, so Li Ruolian was under the purging of two pigs, and put usury in the Guozijian hall, counting it, his own financial path of the Guozijian is also a little related to this one, and now Guozijian has become a big money-amassing family, Yang Reform is also a little interested in this guy, this one, belongs to the kind of official reinstatement, that is, the kind that does not pay with Wei Zhongxian, that is, the kind that has a bit of backbone as an official, but it can be investigated, If it can be co-opted, Yang Reform doesn't mind co-opting.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is none other than Lin Zhu, the current Guozi Priest Wine." Lin Zhu is 50 years old this year. The spirit is still strong, and when he speaks, his voice is very loud.

"Hehe, what's the word? That year's Jinshi? Who is there? "Yang Reform began his own care**.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister's word is Shifu, Shenzong Bingchen Year Jinshi and the first, the third place, the ancestral home of Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian." Lin Zhu proudly explained that it is indeed a matter of pride to be ranked third in the Jinshi exam.

"Third place? Tanhua ......, hehe, not bad, not bad......" Yang Reform was very surprised, this old man was actually still a Tanhua, and the image of Xiao Li Feidao's handsome guy Tanhua was collapsed by this old man.

“…… Quanzhou, Fujian? Oh, that's good! Recently, there is a celebrity in Fujian, called Zheng Zhilong, have you heard of Tanhua? "Yang Reform's recent immigration may involve Taiwan in the future, so I paid much attention to Zheng Zhilong, knowing that Zheng Zhilong was also from Fujian, but I didn't expect that I would also meet a Fujianese who might be incorporated here.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Zhilong? Your Majesty is talking about Zheng Zhilong? The minister has heard that he is a water hero, a pirate leader, and the minister has nothing to do with him, but he is indeed a Fujian and a Quanzhou governor, but he is Nan'an, and the minister is Tong'an, and he is far away. Lin Zhu was very reluctant for the emperor to compare a pirate leader to him. hurriedly explained that he was not Zheng Zhilong's fellow townsman, and Tong'an and Nan'an were definitely not the same county.

Yang Reform smiled: "Hehe, there are many capable people in Quanzhou!" Don't look down on him so much, I'm going to appease him, maybe when the time comes, you can still be officials in the same dynasty. ”

Lin Zhu was half angry, the emperor pulled him together with a pirate leader, I don't know what he is going to do, you must know that he is from Jinshi, he is Tanhua, Zheng Zhilong is a pirate leader, how can they talk together? Still an official in the same dynasty? Lin Zhu wanted to hit his head against the wall. The only thing I can say. That is, they are all from Quanzhou, which cannot be avoided, who told them that both parents were born in Quanzhou, and they were very deflated at the moment.

Looking at this angry and stubborn old man, Yang Reform even had the idea of spoofing, saying that if Zheng Zhilong came to the capital in the future, Yang Reform would be ready to let this old man go to receive him, in the name of a fellow countryman,...... Thinking of this, Yang Reform smiled very "viciously".

Lin Zhu was "laughed" by the emperor, and laughed with a layer of goosebumps. Fortunately, the emperor did not ask any more questions.

I have to say that the area of Guozijian is very large, the ancient trees in it are towering, the trees are shady, there are many houses, which can accommodate 10,000 people to study, and it is more than enough, from the number of these houses, it can be seen that there are a lot of people studying here back then, Yang Reform is very hopeful, this Guozijian can be restored to the previous scene, 10,000 people study. Of course, you have to pay to come in. That's the source of money.

"Lin Zhu, now, how many people are in this country?" Look at these houses, if they are all filled, it is all money!

"Back to Your Majesty, the current study of the Guozijian, including those Jinshi, nearly two thousand, in addition to the Jinshi, there are one thousand five or six, at present, there are still many people in the prison to study." Speaking of this problem of entering prison, Lin Zhu is also like eating flies, this is a disguised selling official, Lin Zhu's Jinshi who has passed the examination looks down on this practice, but now the court needs a large amount of money to relieve the disaster, Lin Zhu has to pinch his nose and admit it, otherwise, with his attitude, he will definitely oppose this practice, however, whenever he looks at the inflow of silver in vain, Lin Zhu has a sense of satisfaction, anyway, he is now brilliant again, the infamous reputation of the former Guozijian, Lin Zhu is embarrassed to tell others that he is the Guozijian, now it's okay, the Guozijian has become a fragrant bait in everyone's eyes, when it comes to the Guozijian, the eyes are red, although the people who come are coming in by donating money, but Lin Zhu believes that as long as he is strictly educated, the people who can go out of the Guozijian are all knowledgeable and reliable people.
