The main courtyard of Huangfu is as bright as daytime.

The servants and maids were all alarmed. If it weren't for the dusk, I was afraid that the main courtyard would be full of people. Because it was the wedding night tonight, the servants had some vision, suppressed their curiosity, and were busy with their own affairs. I would go to the main courtyard tomorrow to see the amazing work of the master of the main family.

Huang Guan, Wu Pu and Xu Huizu came to the yard.

Feichun hurriedly got up.

Xu Xu took Xu Miaojin's hand and came to everyone, smiling "humble": "I'll make you laugh, this is just a trivial work for me."

Everyone was speechless.

Is this trivial?

Then how extraordinary should the works you call a great book?

Huang Guan coughed, "Damn, what a thing this is? Why is it so magical? It is much brighter than a red candle and an oil lamp, and it does not have the smell of fireworks. It is a magical thing, Western thing?"

Hehe, dark joy at dusk.

Western?

There is no electricity in the West now!

Pointing to the electric piles made of wood coking in the yard, he said to everyone: "Let me say it carefully. This is called a electric pile, made of wood. The long strips on the electric pile are made of special porcelain pipes on the surface, and the inside of the porcelain pipe is painted copper wire. The reason why porcelain pipes are used is for safety, for use on wind and rainy days, and for protection of copper wire. The luminous part, I call it a light bulb, and the cover on the outside is made of glass. Because time is tight and the shape is relatively simple, I will ask Lao Li's workshop to produce a light bulb with beautiful shape. As for the luminous parts inside the light bulb, they are called wicks, which are actually bamboo. Due to the limitations of the materials, they are prone to breakage. The wicks will need to be replaced in about a few days."

Wu Pu asked, "But why do bamboo shine?"

Haha, I had a happy evening, "It's a lot of effort to explain the specific principles, but it's just one word: science."

Well, the Ming Dynasty does not understand the word science enough now.

So he said again: "It's all the truths on the tree."

Everyone was still confused.

Seeing this, Huang Dun held Xu Miaojin's hand and whispered: "Sister Jin, I'll take you to see." He said to everyone, "Please come too, otherwise you won't be able to sleep tonight."

This is true for everyone.

I really can't figure out why bamboo can glow by connecting copper wire, which is so amazing.

So they all followed the night after the small house behind the main courtyard.

There were three burly men in the small house at this time.

Two were resting, and there was a burly man in front of a strange machine, constantly rotating the rotor at a symmetrical speed. The copper wire extending from the machine passed through the porcelain tube and entered the main courtyard along the wall.

At dusk, the man who was shaking the rotor should not stop.

He explained to everyone: "I call this machine a human generator. The light bulb in the main yard will shine because of the energy generated by this generator. I still don't explain the specific principle because you can't understand it."

Everyone really can't understand.

But Huang Guan, Wu Pu and Xu Huizu let out a long sigh, just because it's not a strange god.

Before, I took the charlatan route at dusk.

If you make a magic trick, you will be burned by Zhu Di.

Xun said again: "In fact, human power generation is very wasteful and unstable. But there is no way. There is no river around this house and the wind is not enough. It is feasible to use firepower to generate electricity. However, it still takes time to improve the equipment, so I just use manpower for the time being. That's what I think. I hired these three strongmen and asked them to work whenever night falls."

Wu Pu thought, "What if it was midnight?"

Dusk smiled bitterly, "This is a problem. At present, they can only work all night. During the peak electricity consumption period, the three of them should not be slackened at all. As for the middle of the night, it can be imagined like this: set up a pull wire in each room of the main courtyard to connect to the power generation room, and then the bell. When someone is about to get up at night, they will pull the wire. When the bell rings, the three strongmen will get up to work immediately."

That's all.

There is no way to get a battery storage yet.

Huang Guan nodded, "It's a good idea, but the salary of these three people will not be low?"

This is a technical job.

To maintain a uniform speed, even if three people take turns, one person must persist for a long time. It will be fine in the short term. In the long run, it will cause great damage to the body.

Who will come if the money is missing?

Sunset smiled and said to the two resting Lishi: "Are I still satisfied with the salary I give?"

One of the strong men replied, "The little official waits for me to wait for thirty taels of silver a month, and we are grateful."

Thirty taels of silver, this is a high salary!

This means that this power generation room costs 1,000 taels of silver for labor alone in a year, and it is a real luxury item piled up with money - but it is definitely worth the money.

Dusk patted him on the shoulder, "You work hard, I will give you extra rewards at the end of the year."

The strong man hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

Dusk pulled Xu Miaojin and turned around, "Let's go back."

Everyone returned to the front yard.

Xu Huizu felt thoughtful, and suddenly smiled deeper, holding Xun's hand, "It's Xun, how much does this thing cost after you get it. Why don't you get a set for our Xu family? It would be convenient for Miaojin to return to her parents' home."

My heart skipped a beat at dusk.

After thinking about it, I couldn't let go of this matter, so I said, "If you have a whole **, it will cost about 20,000 to 30,000 taels of silver. Brother Zu, we are all relatives. I won't see you some things. This electric pile and light bulb material are not difficult to make. The difficult thing is the equipment in the power generation room. You must know that the core production of that equipment was made by me specifically to Leizhou."

He paused and said, "This is very valuable."

Brothers settle accounts clearly.

Even Xu Huizu, who was used to the strong winds and waves, was dumbfounded, 20,000 to 30,000 taels of silver?

Why don't you grab it?

So he looked at Xu Miaojin.

Xu Miaojin felt a little embarrassed, "I don't know either."

This is a tactful speech for the Dusk.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Xu Huizu looked helpless, the water poured from the married girl.

The heart became warmer in the evening.

"I am preparing to take out this power generation equipment in the future. When I was mass-produced on the road, I will give Xu Mansion a conscientious price, but it is at least more than 10,000 taels of silver. Brother Zu, you have a mental preparation. To be honest, these equipment is indeed not worth 10,000 taels of silver, but if I can make these things, my knowledge is very expensive."

There is something called intellectual property.

This thing must be sold to Zhu Di, so he can earn a few dollars!

More than 10,000 taels of silver?

Xu Huizu thought for a while and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll book a set first."

After tonight, he was completely relieved.

Even if my brother-in-law doesn’t become an official, it seems that it is not difficult to aim at the richest man in the Ming Dynasty with his brain and ability. He is rich and knows many powerful people. Can such a brother-in-law give his third sister happiness?
