During the Spring Festival of the 19th year of Jingtai's reign, the entire Ming Dynasty was filled with joy.
The whole world is celebrating and the whole country is rejoicing.
When the country is prosperous, the people will thrive.
The Ming Dynasty has achieved great results in foreign wars in the past few years. Only the Guangxi Dusi lost to Annan in the 18th year of Jingtai. The other wars were all great victories. The national pride once again boiled in the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
Because the Ming Dynasty was strong externally, all nations were subdued.
Since the Zhengtong Year, many nations have not come to visit the court for many years. On the Spring Festival of the 19th year of Jingtai, signs finally began to appear. For a time, foreigners from the capital of the Ming Dynasty gathered in the clouds, and envoys and kings from various countries gathered in the Fengtian Hall.
The Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty has become a busy dog!
The city of Beijing is currently performing a show of splendor and splendor that once existed in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Around the Shangyuan Festival, the marriage relationship between the Zhu family's royal family and Yu Shaobao's family was finally settled.
But among thousands of lights, someone is carrying a heavy load and moving forward.
The stars and the moon travel together, day and night.
Carrying a large amount of supplies, Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi led a convoy, guarded by Jin Yiwei, over the mountains and ridges, and finally arrived at the Leizhou Peninsula before the beginning of spring.
During this period, the south was very remote, and the official roads in some places were almost difficult for carriages to pass, and there were even bandits robberies along the way. Fortunately, there were guards in royal robes to protect them.
No matter how stupid the bandit is, he will not dare to touch the people of Jinyiwei.
Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi did not waste any time, and went straight to Leiyun Peak with supplies. They repaired in the camp built at the foot of Leiyun Peak for a day, and then sent people to bring supplies to the top of the peak the next day.
The recruited workers arranged the scene according to the instructions of Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi, wrapped the painted rectangular iron block with copper wire, and tied it to the bottom of a dozen sharp iron rods that were made. The iron rods were connected to each other with wires, and then
Densely planted at the highest point of the mountain.
Form a circle of lightning rods.
The next step is to wait.
Wait for a thunderstorm.
Because this move does not rely on human power, but depends entirely on God's will.
This wait lasted half a month.
The Leizhou Peninsula was named "Leizhou" because of the frequent thunderstorms in spring and summer. According to historical records, Leizhou has more than 250 days of thunder in a year. Every summer and autumn, when it rains, there are often thunderous thunders and earthquakes.
The mountains shake and Leizhou is famous for thunder.
According to scientific theory, thunder and lightning are more likely to appear in the sky when the climate is hot, the air humidity is high, and the atmospheric convection is strong. Therefore, thunder and lightning mostly appear in the afternoon.
Although it is early spring, there are still many thunder and lightning weathers.
There have been many thunder and lightning incidents in the past half month.
Unfortunately, the lightning rods on the top of the mountain failed to attract lightning.
This day there was thunder and lightning again.
Zhu Bi and Zhao Chuanjia stood on a low ground at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the strings of golden snakes dancing wildly on the top of the mountain. Lightning was like a net covering the sky, and like a demon standing tall on the ground tearing apart the sky. The scene was spectacular.
Zhu Bi sighed: "Although this is not the first time I have seen him, Leizhou's Lei is indeed the best in the world!"
Zhao Chuanjia nodded, "It's indeed scary."
If His Highness the Crown Prince can successfully operate it, he can establish a magnet production base in Leizhou Peninsula and take advantage of Leizhou's frequent thunder and lightning weather throughout the year to mass-produce magnets.
This lightning lasted for a very long time.
It wasn't until almost sunset that I could rest.
Zhu Bi and Zhao Chuanjia did not dare to go up the mountain at night, so they simply waited until tomorrow to check again. This was just the first experiment after changing the plan. They were worried and couldn't sleep at night, so they simply got up and drank for a while.
.
It was slightly brighter the next day. After getting up, the two of them didn't bother to wash up and headed straight to the top of the mountain with others.
When we arrived at the peak, we could see from a distance that the wires connecting the lightning rod groups had melted away, and countless gravels appeared on the rocks below the lightning rod groups.
The wooden block between the lightning rod and the iron block has turned into ashes.
It’s a sign of being struck by lightning!
Why is there a wooden block between the lightning rod and the iron block?
This is to prevent the iron block and lightning rod from being welded together after being struck by lightning, which affects the quality.
The workers immediately cheered!
They thought they succeeded.
The fifteen large iron blocks in Jingtai's 18th year were used to withstand lightning strikes in only one iron block every time there was a thunderstorm. This time, twenty iron blocks were used to bathe in the lightning.
They saw that every piece of iron was struck by thunder.
Thought it was successful.
Zhu Bi and Zhao Chuanjia are not so optimistic.
He hurriedly ordered the workers to bring down all the lightning rods - there was a lot of thunder and lightning in Leizhou, and it was harvest time. If they didn't bring down the lightning rods, there would suddenly be a thunderstorm, and everyone on the peak would be wiped out.
After putting down all the lightning rods, the two men went to check the rectangular iron blocks under the lightning rods.
Not surprisingly.
All the iron blocks were struck by lightning.
The copper wire wrapped around the iron block has been integrated into it, and the texture is beautiful.
Because the lightning rod groups are connected to each other by iron wires, even if only one needle successfully triggers lightning, the iron blocks on the other lightning rods will be struck by lightning without exception.
Success!
No, it is definitely said that the lightning was successfully induced, but whether the magnet was successfully made remains to be checked.
Zhu Bi and Zhao Chuanjia were excited.
Looking at each other, Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi called a few workers and asked two of them to lift a large iron block and approach each other... As a result, they heard a snap, and the two large iron blocks suddenly collided together!
The workers looked confused.
Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi were ecstatic.
Is it really successful?
The workers were asked to separate the two large iron blocks that were bonded together. However, several workers tried their best and couldn't do it. Finally, Zhu Bi reminded them and separated the two large iron blocks in a staggered manner.
According to the instruction of His Royal Highness, the workers were ordered to turn one of the iron blocks.
result……
The workers tried their best but could not glue the two iron blocks together.
It was as if an invisible hand was pushing them back.
The workers don't understand.
But Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi were so happy that they raised their heads and laughed.
It worked.
It should be a real success!
I brought a hundred iron blocks from Gyeonggi Province.
Twenty pieces were used in the first experiment. After testing, all twenty iron blocks were made into magnets.
Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi had some feelings for a while. Was this a success?
So simple?
Compared with last year's operation, there are only two more details: painting and wrapping copper wire.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a true god!
But after all, I am working for His Highness the Crown Prince.
Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi did not dare to return to Gyeonggi in a hurry and decided to stay in Leizhou for a month to observe. If the magnets still maintain their magnetism after a month, it would be a real success.
The magnets originally made last year were also magnetic, but they didn't last long.
And the magnetic poles are very messy.
So observe it for a month first to determine the final result.
After confirming that it was really successful, all the remaining eighty iron blocks were made into magnets, and then one of Zhao Chuanjia and Zhu Bi took the magnets back to Gyeonggi.
Leave one person in Leizhou Peninsula to establish a magnet production base according to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's arrangements.
Finally, the headquarters of Gyeonggi Electric Power Company appoints someone to take charge of the affairs of the magnet base.
