Important ministers of the Ming Dynasty, including local officials who came to Beijing to report on their duties, soon discovered a strange thing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was very active around the Spring Festival, suddenly retreated into seclusion after the Lantern Festival.
Time flies.
It's almost summer.
As the weather gets longer, the temperature difference between day and night shrinks. After night falls, there are many crickets inside and outside the palace walls. Unfortunately, the emperor and the prince of the Ming Dynasty are not interested in crickets at the moment.
The weather is getting a little hot.
After dinner, Crown Princess Bai Li, served by the palace maid, stood up with difficulty and walked to the Wenhua Palace, "Your Highness, the experiment has not been successful yet?"
The palace maid said: "No."
Bai Li snorted and said, "Then it's better to pay more attention to navigation."
After the Lantern Festival, his cousin Bai Xiu returned to Fujian. He used the influence of His Highness the Prince and his business as the main body to set up a luxurious caravan. According to the route map given by the Prince, he prepared to find new maritime silk.
road.
Dai Yi hurried over and said, "Empress, Your Highness invites you."
Bai Li chuckled and said, "What's the good news?"
Dai Yi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you will know when you go there."
When Bai Li and the palace maids followed Dai Yi outside the Wenhua Palace, they suddenly found that the entire East Palace had gathered, including all the palace maids and eunuchs, Liu Qi, Li Qin, Mayinur and four other Uighur women.
.
Zhao Cunxiao and Li Xuance were also there, one on the left and one on the right, standing next to a strange thing.
Zhu Jianji stood up with a smile, took Bai Li over, and asked, "How long will it take for the little guy to come out?"
Bai Li's face was full of happiness, "The imperial doctor said it will take another month."
Zhu Jianji hummed, "That's enough time."
Bai Li, "What's too late?"
Zhu Jianji laughed loudly, "I have enough time to give Zhu Jianji's first child a gift that is unique in history and make him the happiest child in the world."
Bai Li rolled his eyes, "Don't brag."
Although you are the prince and can indeed give our children the best gift, you should keep a low profile.
Zhu Jianji hummed, and pulled Bai Li to sit next to him, "Bai Li, still remember the first time, when I was immersed in preparing experiments here, you asked me what the use of this thing is? Now I can tell you
What's the use of it? Well, tonight is just a flicker of firefly light, which is not the time for it to really shine."
Bai Li looked confused, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I'm very tired."
Such a big belly...
Moreover, after becoming pregnant, Bai Li gained at least 30 kilograms - this 30 kilograms did not include the baby in the womb and amniotic fluid, etc. Bai Li gained 30 kilograms on his own body.
So it's normal to be tired.
Zhu Jianji coughed and said to everyone: "Silence."
Then he said to Dai Yi: "Turn out the lights."
Dai Yi hurriedly led a group of people to extinguish all the lights in the East Palace, and then waited for His Highness the Crown Prince's order.
The surroundings suddenly became dark.
Bai Li was a little worried and held Zhu Jianji's hand tightly. Zhu Jianji said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's nothing to be afraid of, it's just the dark night. Of course, in fact, the dark night has been very dangerous to us humans since ancient times.
But your husband, I, finally defeated the night, because I want to give you, my children, and the world a bright night!"
Bai Li was puzzled by what he heard.
What the hell?
Can there be light in the dark night?
Isn't this contradictory?
He said angrily: "Your Highness, please hold me a little tighter, I'm afraid I'll fall."
With such a big belly, she will become a mother early if she falls.
Zhu Jianji's heart tightened, and he suppressed all the nonsense. He didn't dare to get angry anymore. He was really afraid that something would happen in the dark, so he said loudly: "Zhao Cunxiao, Li Xuance, start!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Immediately, he heard the sound of the wheels turning. In the dark night, Bai Li suddenly felt his eyes brighten. On the strange machine next to Zhao Cunxiao and Li Xuance, a bright moon appeared!
There was an uproar in front of Wenhua Hall.
Everyone looked at the dimly glowing "oil lamp" in disbelief.
Very bright.
Zhao Cunxiao and Li Xuance maintained a constant speed and made the machine rotate rapidly. Amidst the various noises, the container made of glass hanging on the top of the machine began to shine with dazzling light.
It's like the bright moon in the sky falling into the world.
Everyone found it incredible.
Even Zhu Jianji had tears in his eyes.
This is the first electric current created by humans.
This is the first light emitted by humans using electric current.
This is mankind's first light bulb to break the darkness.
This was the world's first generator.
It is also the first light of the new world.
Success!
The electromagnetic induction generator was finally invented by myself. Although it is still very rough, as long as it is improved, a small power generation system can truly be created.
Of course, there is still a lot to be desired to complete an entire power generation system with just one generator.
for example……
There are a lot of problems that need to be solved such as poles, wires, switches, power, etc.
The hardest thing to solve is motivation.
But Zhu Jianji didn't worry about this. Small power generation systems were not sold to ordinary people, but to the rich and powerful in the world. They had plenty of money.
Then adapt measures to local conditions, use their local water power and wind power to provide power, and the problem can be easily solved.
Even if there is no suitable power source, there is still manpower!
The rich and powerful can definitely spend money to hire people. They can spend one or two silver dollars every night to hire three young men to ensure that the generator runs during peak periods. There are a lot of people willing to do this job.
It’s only thirty taels of silver a month.
That's what Zhu Jianji thought. After all, the Forbidden City had no wind or water power to utilize. He wanted to install circuit systems in several important places in the palace, and if they were to be used normally, they could only use human power as the driving force to generate electricity.
Bai Li groaned and opened his eyes wide, filled with little stars, "Your Highness, what is this?"
Zhu Jianji smiled and said: "Electric light!"
Bai Li looked puzzled and wanted to touch it, but Zhu Jianji was startled. "Don't touch it, it's dangerous. The electricity of this lamp is the same as lightning on rainy days. It can kill people, so Bai Li
You must be careful in the future."
Bai Li let out an ooh and hurriedly took a few steps back, "Then will it hurt the baby?"
Zhu Jianji chuckled and said, "This will definitely not happen. Don't worry, I will make it good. There will be no safety risks."
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he said: "But just one of them can't illuminate how wide it is."
Zhao Cunxiao and Li Xuance were pedaling in circles. Maybe they were tired after pedaling for a long time and could not maintain a stable rhythm, so the light bulbs started to flicker.
A bit like a ghost movie.
Zhu Jianji shouted to stop.
Zhao Cunxiao and Li Xuance got off the machine, looked at each other, and secretly complained.
This work is more tiring than fighting.
Dai Yi turned on the lamp again, and the front of the Wenhua Hall became bright again. Zhu Jianji took Bai Li's hand and sat down slowly, smiling and said: "You can't reach a thousand miles without taking small steps. Although the lights are not very bright now, if the whole city is full of
What about this kind of electric light?”
Bai Li groaned, "Is there such a city?"
Liu Qi, Li Qin and others looked at Zhu Jianji with admiration.
Zhu Jianji enjoys this kind of happiness of stars overlapping the moon!
So under the admiring gaze of many women, I ate desserts with Bai Li, slowly describing to them a beautiful world full of fireworks and fireworks.
All the women were in a state of excitement after hearing this.
The world described by His Royal Highness is definitely not a fairyland...
