"The ship can still float on the water, not only to save lives temporarily."
"More importantly, in this case, the crew can take the opportunity to dive into the water and repair the damaged watertight compartment!"
"With such an endless stretch, as long as there is no devastating storm, the ship can continue sailing!"
…
Li Sheng finished speaking.
Wei Zheng was completely stunned now.
Damn it...
Then isn’t this invincible?
Oh my god...
Horror, horror!
Wei Zheng's mind was filled with shock.
Because... he remembered the world map he had seen that day in Li Sheng's courtyard in the west of Chang'an City.
The huge world map is a huge temptation on the one hand.
After all, there is so much land beyond the thousands of miles of sea!
Not to mention, what Li Sheng told,
Southeast Asia’s top quality rice varieties, a wide variety of fruits that require almost no farming...
In the American continent, there are countless novel and new kinds of food...
Africa, Australia's iron ore...
These are all first-class good things.
But the distance is so far, it’s really daunting.
If someone says that if you exercise for an hour every day, you can become a strongman in three years, I won't say that everyone will try it, but at least there will be many people who will try it.
But if someone says that if you practice for an hour every day, you can become an immortal directly in three hundred years.
No one will try this, because I won’t live for three hundred years. What does it matter to me if I become an immortal?
What's more for me?
However, Li Sheng's explanation made Wei Zheng seem to see a new world.
With this watertight compartment...
The ships of the Tang Dynasty could travel thousands of miles across the sea, and the footprints of the Han army could be spread all over the world.
By then... wouldn't this be a far better achievement than the Qin and Han Dynasties?
By then, the reputation of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty will be nothing more than child's play in front of today's Tang Dynasty!
!
fear!
At this moment, Wei Zheng truly saw what Li Sheng called "the power of science."
This power is simply awesome!
I broke my voice immediately!
Li Sheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at Wei Zheng's dazed expression.
Shaking his head secretly.
These old profiteers, with this trick, they should be able to make a fortune.
Li Sheng was about to run away, looking for an excuse to find hot water to hide...
So did Lao Wei, Lao Li, Lao Du and the others.
All of them, the eldest is no longer young, and they are all so easily excited.
Li Sheng could only say...
Let’s make them some more Maca, it will lower their blood pressure!
but……
After the maca soaked in water was served, Li Sheng thought he could start discussing what to drink tonight.
After all, Li Sheng has nothing to pursue now, the Turks have all been leveled, and the remaining ppt...
Is it possible that we really need to complete everything?
As a result, it was time for dinner in the evening,
Li Shenggang wanted to tell Wei Zheng about the best mutton in Saibei.
Then Wei Zheng's body suddenly shook,
"What's up, Old Wei, you're... a little scary today. I'm still young, little brother, and I don't want to get into trouble!"
"Sir, what is the steam dynamics you mentioned before?"
Li Sheng:…………
Impressed.
This old Wei, can't he just eat and drink in peace and contentment? Isn't he better than anything else?
Besides, I can’t tell whether this thing can be explained clearly in a while.
"Lao Wei, don't ask about this thing. This thing is different from others and is more complicated."
"Of course the principle is very simple, just burn coal!"
"Burning coal?"
"The boat is made of wood, so if you burn coal, wouldn't that mean... wouldn't that mean you burn the boat?"
Wei Zheng subconsciously lowered his head and looked at the small stove in front of him, the large pieces of mutton skewers...
Although his face was full of doubts, his eyes were still full of desire for knowledge.
I was completely unaware of the aroma of sizzling mutton that hit my nostrils.
At this moment, Wei Zheng only had one thing on his mind.
From today on, I will imitate my own daughter and learn from my own daughter - I have to ask what the meaning of every word Li Sheng says!
Otherwise, who knows how many good things and unparalleled achievements the Tang Dynasty missed by "helping" the Tang Dynasty?
However, Li Sheng's words made Wei Zheng feel nervous.
It's bad, it feels like listening to a book from heaven...
The words in Li Sheng's mouth are like this. The simpler the words, the more complex, profound and profound they are!
Sure enough, Li Sheng was seen shaking his head and saying...
"Of course coal is not burned to burn ships. The coal-burning machinery will also be specially designed."
"The reason why coal is burned is to propel the ship so that it can sail without wind!"
"Let the ship... sail without wind?!"
Wei Zheng was stunned immediately.
This day, this whole day, this whole day...
They are all immersed in the emergence of watertight compartments and the upcoming changes to the Tang Dynasty ships.
In the future, Datang will have endless sea territories and will have access to the resources of the entire world!
The real world!
And all this is just because of a watertight compartment.
Just one watertight compartment could invisibly expand Datang's sphere of influence several times.
Wei Zheng only imagined this kind of achievement, and if he accidentally fell into a daze... it could last for several hours.
Those sea areas and continents are so huge!
And now...
Li Sheng actually said, is there anything that can make a ship move without wind?
this……
Now Wei Zheng was completely confused.
This is too much!
"Sir, this is no joke. Is there any ship in the world that can move without wind?"
"If the ship moves without wind, doesn't it... doesn't it become a monster ship???"
Wei Zheng felt that this was too outrageous!
Li Sheng smiled slightly and shook his head.
The meaning of shaking his head is not to tell Wei Zheng that it is indeed impossible for a ship to move without wind, but it obviously means that you have guessed wrong!
Once you realize this...
Wei Zheng was completely dizzy. This... this is simply impossible...
After thinking about all the alchemy in ancient and modern Taoist books, it seems that there is no way to make a ship move without wind...
At this moment, Wei Zheng just felt like he was screwed.
This is too magical!
"How is this possible?! If there is no wind, isn't this a witchcraft?"
At this moment, Wei Zheng could only think of all kinds of sorcery!
But Li Sheng smiled slightly, "Sorcery? Of course not. What kind of witchcraft? They are all lies."
"There is no magic, only science and technology!"
"Speaking of it, the principle is actually not complicated. Burning coal in this ship is not the purpose in itself. It is because burning coal can release the heat energy in the coal..."
"Thermal energy, using water as the medium, can be converted into mechanical potential energy and then into kinetic energy..."
"Look, Old Wei, it's very simple."
Wei Zheng:…………
Yes, you are right, it is very simple, too simple.
It's so simple! It's so simple!
Originally, Wei Zheng planned to ask Li Sheng for every new word he said in the future.
Now it seems……
Forget it, asking too many questions will be good for Datang, but it will be harmful for your little heart!
No kidding, after all, I am old and I really can’t stand it...
