In addition to that lathe, Liu Che also saw many other invented machines in Moyuan.

Some of these machines are huge.

For example, a water turbine that lies horizontally in the upper reaches of a river and works with the impact of the river.

The size of this kind of water turbine is incomparably huge, just the huge water wheel sitting in the river, which is as tall as two or three people, and the huge water wheel drives the stone mill on the shore, grinding all kinds of grain day and night.

Some are petite and exquisite.

For example, some ink artists invented a pump that used a piston motion to lift water from a well.

This simple gadget, made of cork and an iron bar, was common in the countryside in later generations.

Many farmers' wells have similar installations.

Just like a pump, with the help of air pressure, well water is extracted.

Of course, there are also people who have come up with gadgets that are purely for entertainment.

It's like the artifact that Liu Che sees in front of his eyes now.

It consists of a steamer and a soft leather ball made from whale skin.

Underneath the steamer is a stove, and when the fire starts to burn in the stove, the water in the steamer starts to boil, and then steam is generated.

But the steamer is completely covered by an iron lid, with only a conduit made of bamboo and wood connected through a small hole in the lid to the ball that is placed about a foot above the steamer.

On the left and right sides of the ball, there is an opposite jet cut made of woodpipes.

In this way, when the power of the steam is sufficient, the ball will turn repeatedly under the jet force of the steam.

It's like a balloon that is spinning forever.

"What's it called?" Liu Che asked curiously, pointing to the spinning ball.

"Back to Your Majesty, the name of this thing is: Hot Wheels!" The person in charge of the Mo Garden, Yang Yi, the next Mo family's son, replied beside him.

"Hot Wheels ......" Liu Che laughed, with Hot Wheels, will Nezha be far away?

Narrowing his smile, Liu Che said to the left and right: "Which great sage invented this thing?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty......" A relatively stubby ink artist stood up and said with a smile: "This is a contemptible game, which makes Your Majesty smile......"

"Your Majesty, this is Wang Zhang, a well-known ink master in Yandi, who has brought out four or five Mo apprentices under extremely difficult conditions......" Yang Yi introduced beside him.

Liu Che nodded.

Basically, before he ascended the throne, the people who were still intoxicated with Mohist ideas and techniques were all extremely pure people.

It is only for the sake of hobbies or ideals and persistence that they still insist on themselves in that situation.

It's a rarity.

"Wang Aiqing......" Liu Che looked at the other party: "Can Qing continue to study steam equipment on the basis of this 'Hot Wheels'?" ”

"If steam can make this ball turn, it should be able to turn an iron ball, and if it can make an iron ball turn, then it should be able to tow a ship and make a ballista work!"

"Then it should be able to swing a 10,000-stone giant hammer and drag a 10-million-pound boulder!"

In Liu Che's eyes, the 'Nezha' who controls Hot Wheels should be steam machinery!

The roaring steam train pulled millions of tons of supplies, and brought hundreds of soldiers to the aid of the world in a thousand miles.

Huge ships with smoke across the ocean, laden with supplies from the colonies, were continuously transported to the mainland.

Of course, this is just a dream.

It can't happen in a lifetime.

But......

In his lifetime, it should be possible to make the steam change from driving the ball to spin to pushing an iron ball weighing dozens of pounds.

Even if it doesn't work, it's okay.

It's just a matter of raising a few technicians and spending a little resource.

And the people around them, listening to the scene described by Liu Che, their eyes fell out.

They looked at the ball that was spinning, and then thought about the words of the Son of Heaven.

It's not impossible!

What the Son of Heaven said is not wrong!

If steam makes the ball spin endlessly, why can't it move a heavier object by increasing the amount and force of steam?

Since it can make heavier objects, such as iron balls, move.

Then, it can be proved that its future and future are limitless!

Swing the 10,000-stone hammer and drag the 10-million-pound boulder, it's possible!

Everyone just felt that a window to a whole new world had been opened.

A world that had not been discovered and touched before was beckoning to them.

All of these Mohists were in high spirits, and their chests were undulating.

In fact, many human inventions and creations are derived from the discovery of a tiny detail, and then thinking and practice.

Liu Che's words, maybe other schools, will not take it to heart.

But for the Mo family.

It's like the apple that smashed on Newton's head!

In an instant, the universe exploded, and a new world bloomed in magnificent colors and enchanting sights before their eyes.

Wang Zhang calmed down his mind and solemnly bowed to Liu Che: "Since you have been ordered, your ministers should exhaust your life and work hard for Your Majesty's wishes!" ”

For today's Mo family, Liu Che's son of heaven is not just a ruler, a supporter, and a confidant.

It is also a spiritual leader and a guiding light.

For the Mo family, who firmly believe in ghosts, they really need such a self-proclaimed king to support them and show them the way.

Just as Mozi said to his disciples back then: Today's princes, scholars, and gentlemen will want to seek the benefits of the world, and eliminate the harm of the world.

Therefore, in fact, the Ming ghosts of the Mo family are not so much feudal superstitions as political propositions.

This is also due to the peculiarities of China.

For example, if you were born in the West, you must be a god, but in China, you must be a ghost.

Ghosts and gods, spirits of heaven and earth, sun, moon and stars, and gods of ancestors!

Liu Che smiled and said to Wang Zhang: "Qing can choose his own assistants and workers, once there is a need, they will be reported to Shaofu, and the expenses below 10,000 yuan can be used first and then reported, more than 10,000 yuan, first reported to Moyuan, please be in Shaofu!" ”

This is the greatest support for his research and work.

Expenses below 10,000 yuan do not need to be reported to anyone, and they can be used by themselves, and only more than 10,000 yuan need to be reported.

This means that the resources that Wang Zhangneng can call on are among the highest priority people within the Mo family.

You must know that now, most of the Mo family's project funds need to be reported first, and then approved before they can be allocated.

Only the former hydraulic hammer and the few key projects currently underway enjoy similar policies.

Although the amount of 10,000 yuan is not as good as those projects, it is often a starting point of 100,000.

However, this also means that the resources and funds that Wang Zhang can call every month are at least hundreds of thousands!

As a result, many ink artists looked at Wang Zhang with envy.

Many of the projects they do dream of wanting this kind of treatment.

However, the current Mo family is still very pure.

Therefore, everyone is just envious, and other emotions do not exist.

But for Liu Che, this is a little KIS.

Hundreds of thousands a month, millions of deaths in a year.

Ten years is tens of millions.

And tens of millions of dollars and resources are not as good as Emperor Wu's reward to Luan Da in history.

And it is undoubtedly worth using this money to buy a pre-skill in steam technology and open the first door to the steam revolution for future generations.

Even, ten times more expensive, it's still worth it!

After finishing the inspection of Moyuan, Liu Che called Yang Yi to his side at the door of Moyuan, and said, "Qing prepare, next month, I will order Taichang to select children from the family of the princes, feudal monarchs and ministers of the two thousand stones, and send them to Moyuan...... Qing is ready to arrange for manpower docking! ”

This is also the talisman that Liu Che found for the Mo family.

As long as the disciples of the Mo family, there is a shadow of the nobles and nobles of the world.

Then, the Mo family will not die.

In addition, it can also be used to let the Mo family have some political power, instead of only cowering near the Mo Garden and the Mo Society as it is now.

Since it is a hundred schools of thought, of course, you can't let Huang Lao Confucianism talk to himself in Taixue, and he can draw a target and play by himself.

Of course, if you get, you have to give.

The Mohists had to adjust some strategies and philosophies, as well as the way they interpreted certain terms.

But that's just the minority.

There is no need for Liu Che to intervene at all.

China is a country that can turn socialism into characteristics!

In this country and this nation, there is nothing that cannot be changed! (To be continued.) )
