Bang!

Qin Mo slapped the child in the head, "Beautiful fuck, sixteen!"

Li Xuan also grinned, it was great, no mistakes, "Brother-in-law, I'm doing a pretty job, why do you still have to slap me!"

"Silly boy, because my brother-in-law loves you!" Qin Mo looked at the ship, ran to the other end quickly, then turned the direction for the ship, and the bottomed ship started to sail again.

The speed is quite fast.

Li Shilong said: "Jing Yun, why can this ship move by itself?"

"Well, Father, I'm explaining to you when the ship stops." Qin Mo's attention is now on this rough ship.

"Sixteen, tell me the truth, how did you do this propeller?"

"I went to find Qin, and he helped me do it." Li Xuan said.

"I just told you how could you do this thing." Qin Mo knew it was like this, but he didn't care. He just rushed to Li Xuan to make the ship move by himself, which was amazing.

Li Xuan said: "Although I made the propeller with Qin Le, the core of this ship was made by me, and I knocked on the iron sheet bit by bit by bit. Look at my hands, it's all a hole!"

He spread his hands open, and his originally delicate hands were covered with scars, but they were still callous.

Li Shilong was full of questions, but he was embarrassed to ask, which made him look particularly out of date.

So he pretended to be profound and calm, watching the boats in the small pond move forward with a calm face.

The ship stopped for about a quarter of an hour.

Qin Mo got into the water, carried the boat up, opened the deck, and carefully observed the steam engine in the hull. It was very different from the pictures and information he had seen before, and it was also very simple.

Some parts inside have serious hand-sand marks, which are particularly rough.

In fact, the steam engine has been researching and is placed in the core of Qinzhuang.

However, Qin Mo also gave a principle and the drawings were very simple, because he could only remember roughly. The longer he came to Daqian, the less memory of his previous life would be.

Moreover, it was very expensive to study this, and it cost tens of thousands of taels to be spent, and even a splash of water did not splash.

He originally thought that he would be satisfied if he could see it in ten to fifteen years.

Unexpectedly, Li Xuan made a smaller version and it was really made.

"Come on, tell me how you came up with this." Qin Mo asked.

Li Xuan said: "It was Qin Li who assigned us his homework by handicrafts. I chose this and asked Qin Li about it. He said he was doing it too, but he didn't succeed.

I also went to see that big guy, it was too big, so I made a small one, and then modified it myself, and it was done."

After hearing this, Qin Mo was so amused and laughed, so he got it out by accident?

No wonder he saw that there were many parts on it that didn't fit well.

However, this reduced version of the steam engine is still of reference value.

Many things were discovered by accident.

Li Xuan may not understand the principles here very well, but children have strong thinking ability and sometimes they are smarter than adults who think.

"Well, you are honest!" Qin Mo looked at Li Xuan's nervous expression, "You have made contributions, your brother-in-law will reward you!"

"real?"

"Of course!" Qin Mo said with a smile: "Although this steam engine is simple, it can make the ship move. It can be regarded as the first case of Daqian. From now on, call him Li Xuan-style steam engine!"

"Name after me?" Li Xuan jumped up and down excitedly, "Brother-in-law, do you really name it after me?"

"Then there is still a falsehood!" Qin Mo touched his head, and he knew that the child's head was very useful.

"What do you think when you jump up and down?" Li Shilong snorted, and Li Xuan immediately became honest.

"Jingyun, tell me the principle of this!"

"Father, this steam engine is to simply convert the energy of steam into mechanical work, just like boiling water in a teapot. If the spout is blocked, the lid will be pushed open by the scorching steam!

This kind of energy is actually quite large, so I wonder if I can use this energy to replace human power!”

"This is impossible, how can human resources be replaced!" Li Shilong vetoed.

"Father, the times are progressing, and technology is also progressing. Take the carriage for example. In the past, the two-wheeled carriage used wooden wheels, but now they use stainless steel wheels, with a load capacity of more than ten times that of the previous one.

One trip is worth ten. Isn’t this liberating manpower, reducing labor costs and escort costs?”

Qin Mo smiled and said, "There are hundreds of paddlers in a building boat. With a steam engine, you only need to arrange people to continuously fill the boiler with water and then add coal.

The speed is fast and even. If equipped with sails, the speed can be at least twice as fast.

In the past, it took ten days to go from the capital to the Bohai Sea, but now it only takes five days, or even shorter. What does this mean?”

Of course, Li Shilong knew that a fleet originally had two or three round trips a month, but now it could have five or six round trips a month.

What this adds is profit.

If you look at it longer, if you can put it on a large ship, it will be more convenient to cross the ocean.

"Is this thing so powerful?" Li Shilong still disbelief.

"Of course, but the one made by Sixteen is a simplified version, and the size is also small. The real steam engine is dozens of times larger than this one, and the requirements for materials are very high.

To use numbing, we also need to ensure airtightness. There are some materials, but we still haven't found a very suitable replacement.

However, this surprised me very much. I thought it would take ten years to get it out, but Sixteen gave me a big surprise.

This small steam engine has great reference significance for the transformation of the large steam engine!"

Even Qin Mo said it would take more than ten years to make it, but Li Xuan actually did it casually, and Li Shilong felt a sense of pride in his heart.

"Father, this time I have made a contribution to the Sixteenth, and I must be rewarded!" Qin Mo asked for merit.

Li Shilong nodded and looked at Li Xuan with excited little face flushed, "Sixteen, your brother-in-law rarely praises others. He can give you such a high evaluation. I feel very comforted. Say, what do you want!"

Li Xuan was shy, "Father, I, I have nothing to want. Can I learn from my brother-in-law? I also want to get that steamed car out, and I won't need to do anything in the future!"

Li Shilong was stunned. This was beyond his expectations. Li Xuan actually wanted nothing.

But, what is that steam car?

He looked at Qin Mo, "Don't you explain it to me?"

Qin Mo smiled bitterly and said, "Father, steaming cars are similar to this steamship, but there are several types of steaming cars, one is relatively small, and one or two people can sit on it.

Another type is bigger, and you can sit one or two hundred people at the same time, but that one is more difficult to do. It would be amazing to be able to do it within twenty years."

Li Shilong stopped talking, and he remembered what Yuan Tiangang said again, "The horse does not eat grass, the iron tree blooms, and the boat does not need oars!"
