I am the king of the dead

"Thanks to Yu Shaobao for his teaching." Even so, Fan Wenqiao still understood the meaning of careful punishment, and thanked him happily.

Yu Qian waved his hand and said, "It's okay."

Soon, detailed naturalization conditions have been listed.

After the naturalization, the Qinghua army must be completely disarmed, the horses should be released to Nanshan, and they should be disarmed and returned to the fields;

As another king of Annan, Li Sicheng went to Tianjin Wei, and was neighbors with the Ryukyu king Shang Taijiu and Tatar Khan Tuotuobuhua. Like Shang Taijiu and Tuotuobuhua, he had the right to directly admonish him;

Annan, the prefecture of Daming, was changed to Jiaozhi, which treated everyone equally, and prefectures and counties were established for jurisdiction, and the system was the same as that of Daming.

The details of the naturalization are still being negotiated, but are progressing steadily.

Zhu Qiyu received the sword body from Jiaozhi, and Xing'an combined the hilt and the sword body together. This is a very ordinary iron sword. In terms of quality, it is not as easy to use as Daming's Xiuchun Dao.

But it was such a Shuntian sword that turned Jiaozhi into An Nanguo during the Xuande period.

"Liu Pu is dead." Zhu Qiyu looked at the memorabilia in his hand and said calmly: "I am not a person without faith. After returning to Liu Pu's overseas marquis, Liu Pu's heirs are still not allowed to enter the Ming Dynasty. Let the Ministry of Rites give him a posthumous posthumous title."

Liu Pu chose to keep his promise and end the matter with death to thank Tian En, so naturally Zhu Qiyu would not break his promise.

"After all, you are a smart man who chose the most suitable opportunity." Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "I am still here, and his Liu Pu's heirs are not allowed to enter the Ming Dynasty, but Jiaozhi will be able to enjoy long-term stability in the future. The fact that Liu Pu died in a bloody battle for the country and that Liu Pu died for Annan in the prefecture and county will allow Liu Pu's descendants to return to Ming Dynasty."

"Go back, just go back."

Zhu Qiyu didn't get too entangled in this matter, but picked up a piece of Korean tribute paper and said, "Li Yimin must die."

Liu Pu's death was beyond Zhu Qiyu's expectations, and Li Yimin's cruelty was also beyond his expectations. It is a skill to be able to toss Annan to this extent, but if Li Yimin didn't make such a toss, Annan, the prefecture and county of the Ming Dynasty, might have to Out of season.

In Annan, Daming County, Li Yimin should be credited with a merit, and Zhu Qiyu personally handwritten the letter to death, Li Yimin should be grateful, just like a scum like Li Yimin, Zhu Qiyu intends to send him to Jiejieyuan to see if such a shameless person is structurally compatible Ordinary people are different.

Due to the naturalization issue of the Qinghua Army and Zhu Qiyu's fear of Li Sicheng, Li Yimin was finally taken advantage of and let him die.

After Zhu Qiyu finished writing the death-giving edict, he handed it to Xing'an after the seal, and then he picked up a piece of Koryo tribute paper and issued a series of orders.

After Qinghua was completely disarmed and Li Sicheng crossed the sea to Guangzhou, the Yunnan-Guizhou Guards withdrew from Mengzi in an orderly manner;

And Chen Mao, the Marquis of Ningyang, became the Duke of Junguo, and led half of the guards from Guangdong and Guangxi to guard Annan, and the Duke of Junguo's mansion was stationed in Jiaozhi forever;

Zhu Yi restored the Duke of Chengguo, Shi Biao became the Duke of Dingyuan because of his meritorious service, and together with the British Duke Zhang Mao and Wen'an Hou Yuqian led the Beijing camp and navy back to Ming Dynasty;

The affairs of various prefectures and counties prepared by the Ministry of Officials of the Ming Dynasty went to Jiaozhi to serve;

According to the system, cochin lessons are exempted from taxation for three years to breed population and other government orders.

Zhu Qiyu also approved the list of extraordinary merit cards and top merit cards submitted by the Ministry of War, and rewarded the three armies.

After finishing these, Zhu Qiyu leaned on the back of the chair, staring at the piece of Korean tribute paper in front of him in a daze.

"Is Your Majesty tired? Do you want Concubine Ran Ning to come over and broaden His Majesty's shoulders?" Xing'an looked at His Majesty's dignified expression and asked.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said: "No, I'll go to the workshop later, and then go to her place at night. I'm just thinking about whether to give Yu Shaobao the title of Duke."

Yu Qian is now the Marquis of Wen'an. This time in Annan County, Chen Mao made the first contribution in military affairs, and Yu Qian made the first contribution in military affairs. They complement each other, and Annan County, the county, went so smoothly.

It's unreasonable for Yu Qian to stay where he is when Chen Mao enters the ranks.

Xing'an had a lot to say, but he didn't say a single word.

Yu Qian has the merit of Conglong, the first merit of the battle of the capital, the merit of regaining the governor of Jining Hetao, the merit of the emperor's personal conquest and suppression of the rebellion, and the merit of stabilizing the country, and now he has the merit of Annan in the county. .

If Yu Qian is just a simple hereditary military honor of the Ming Dynasty, this is a logical matter, and Zhu Qiyu doesn't need to hesitate.

But Yu Qian is the head of all the officials, the Great Ming Shaobao, and the actual prime minister is Zhu Qiyu's right-hand man, the minister of the humerus. With this status, Zhu Qiyu gave Yu Qian the title of Duke, which is to force Yu Qian to become an official.

"Is Yu Mian forty this year?" Zhu Qiyu suddenly asked, Yu Mian is Yu Qian's son, why is there no seal or reward, there is no way to reward Lao Tzu, can't he reward his son?

Xing'an took out his heavy memo and rummaged through it, saying: "Yu Mian just turned [-] this year."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "I heard that he has six daughters and no son, right?"

"Yes." Xing'an bowed his head and said.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "You can still have children at the age of 40. The Ministry of Rites ordered Yu Mian to take concubines and have children, and choose a few good ones. The Marquis of Wen'an in Ming Dynasty can't succeed anyone, right?"

"Minister obeys the order." The stone in Xing'an's heart fell to the ground. This reward is a good thing, and Annan, the county, is also a good thing. Don't make a bad thing because of two good things, and end up with a lot of feathers.

Zhu Qiyu went to the workshop. The double-acting piston steam engine in front of him had entered the last moment of attack, and the problem of air tightness had been solved.

Now comes the stage of increasing the duration of continuous use and improving the service life.

"If the previous single-acting piston steam engine was a baby, it is now five years old." Zhu Qiyu signaled to light the boiler.

The previous single-acting piston steam engine can only be used luxuriously unless there is a mine at home, and the price of coal is much lower than the cost of labor. Then the double-acting piston steam engine in front of it can already be used initially.

The steam enters the slide valve distribution device along the pipeline under the speed regulation of the flying ball centrifugal governor. The amount of steam is obviously not enough, and the double-acting piston reciprocates reluctantly in the cylinder, and the connecting rod Drive the flywheel to rotate slowly.

Zhu Qiyu grabbed the flywheel with his hand and shook it vigorously. The flywheel rotated rapidly, and the crankshaft drove the flying ball to rotate. The flying ball rotated, and the butterfly valve of the governor rotated slowly to regulate the steam.

How to improve the use time is mainly the working accuracy of the flying ball governor.

The more stable the output of the steam engine, the longer it is used and the longer its life.

The double-acting piston steam engine began to scream, and the steam spewed out again and again, the speed of the flywheel became faster and faster, and the vibration of the cylinder began to vibrate with the vibration of the piston.

This is a resonance that can damage the airtightness of the piston and cylinder.

Zhu Qiyu took out a magnet and put it into the slot preset on the cylinder. The vibration of the cylinder immediately became much smaller. As the speed of the flywheel became higher and higher, the cylinder began to vibrate violently again. Zhu Qiyu took out another magnet. Installed on the card slot, the vibration is immediately reduced.

The vibration of the cylinder will also damage the service life and life of the steam engine, and this ferromagnetic resonance elimination technology was discovered by craftsmen by accident, which greatly increased the service life of the cylinder.

Zhu Qiyu took off the magnet, and the vibration began to recover, and then put it on again, and the vibration disappeared.

"Interesting." Zhu Qiyu had a great time playing.

For this double-action piston steam engine, he has been busy for three months. More than [-] craftsmen cooperated, and dozens of official factories were busy day and night to meet his needs, and finally made the one in front of him. It is a huge monster about six feet high, seven feet wide, and one foot long.

The steam roared and spewed out quickly, and the whistling of the flywheel rotated rapidly, all of which made people feel relaxed and happy. He looked at the craftsmen who kept adding coal, and said with a smile: "More is beautiful! Big is better!"

"This thing, the more the better."

Chapter 782 One-horsepower double-acting piston steam engine

There are two water wells in the Nantang workshop, and these two wells are equipped with two barrel cars, which are spiral water wheels.

A long tube, the rotation of the inner shaft of the rotating tube drives the spiral blade to run in the opposite direction, and supports the water to move upwards to achieve the purpose of raising the water.

It also has a name called Longwei car.

The tail of the dragon is like water, and it rises like water, so it is called the car with the tail of the dragon.

The principle of the dragon tail car is the principle of Archimedes' spiral motion.

The dragon tail water carts of the two wells are the same except for the power. The dragon tail water cart in the east is animal power, the most durable horse selected from the horse farm of the Ming emperor Zhu Qiyu, and the west one is the steam engine of the Ming emperor.

How much work can the steam engine produced by Zhu Qiyu need to bypass the degree to solve it.

The experimental platform has been built.

In the early morning of the next day, when it was just dawn, the general offices of several official factories including the Guangzhou Fuzhou Coal and Steel Factory, the Weaving Bureau, the Winery, and the Spinning Factory, and the Guangdong and Guangxi merchants came to the Nantang workshop with several merchants.

As soon as they entered the factory, they saw a horse spinning continuously, driving the dragon tail cart to pump water, while on the other side, there was a steam engine emitting steam.

This is a brand new machine. Two craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty are nervously observing the operation of the steam engine, writing and drawing in their notebooks.

Water flows into the container along the pipe.

The general office, the general manager and other merchants were stopped outside and looked at the machine in amazement. Four hours later, Zhu Qiyu appeared in the workshop.

Jin Wansheng, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, the result is out. The horse raised a total of 72 catties of water by a foot in four hours, and the horse is already tired."

72 catties of water is 360 tons. This is Zhu Qiyu, the horse with the highest endurance and physical strength in the horse farm of the Ming emperor. Generally, Zhu Qiyu is willing to ride a war horse when it is time for battle.

"What about the steam engine? How much?" Zhu Qiyu was quite looking forward to the performance of the steam engine.

Jin Wansheng, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, hesitated for a while, and said a little nervously: "In four hours, the steam engine raised 70 catties of water by one foot, but the steam engine can continue."

It took His Majesty several months to tinker with the thing, which was actually not as good as a livestock, and it was [-] catties less, which really made Jin Wansheng extremely uneasy.

Zhu Qiyu said with ecstasy: "Very good, stop it, very good!"

Now the power of the steam engine that Zhu Qiyu has worked out is about one horsepower, just like the hardness of Daming concrete is "one foot". This is the result of bypassing the degree.

And the work efficiency of one horsepower has greatly exceeded Zhu Qiyu's expectations. He originally thought that he could achieve half a horsepower, but the result surprised him.

"Take the summary in and let them discuss it." Zhu Qiyu handed over the hot data to Jin Wansheng, and asked him to go in and have a fight with those merchants.

tear what?

Will tearing up the current steam engine be accepted by people on a large scale?

Buying is not as smart as selling. This group of preoccupied merchants gathered here today to help the Emperor calculate the cost.

Lin Xiu, the eunuch of the Ministry of Finance, and Wang Hu, a doctor of the household department, were also in the house. Zhu Qiyu sat behind the screen and listened to their discussion quietly.

"Mr. Wang, where did you get rich recently?" A businessman asked obsequiously.

Wang Qiyue shook his head and said, "Where to get rich, it's just begging for food."

Wang Qiyue is from Guangxi, and he is the head of the new merchants in Guangdong and Guangxi. After the collapse of the four major buildings, his hairy hair appeared. It is rumored in the world that Wang Qiyue has [-] boats and [-] boatmen under his command. figure.

But Zhu Qiyu knew the details of this business owner. He was the owner of the Wang family in Qinzhou. Went overseas to oppress foreign barbarians.

Wang Hu, a doctor from the household department, Jin Wansheng, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, and Lin Xiu, an internal eunuch, got the data of the steam engine and passed it on to everyone present.

Lin Xiu said with a smile: "Grandpa Huang just wants to know, if there is a choice, which one would you choose? Is it a horse or this steam engine?"

"Everyone, don't worry, Grandpa Huang said that this time it is not allocated to you to buy and sell steam engines. To be honest, this new thing, the official factory has to use it first."

If you want to buy, you have to queue.

Wang Qiyue took a lot of summaries, looked at them for a long time and said, "What kind of horse is this?"

Wang Hu said: "Turn to the seventh page, the rear mountain horse and the Western Region horse are mixed, and the best horse is selected from the best."

"The good horse from the Yumajian..." Wang Qiyue shuddered and shook his head.

The price of horses in Ming Dynasty varies from six to ten silver coins in the north, and twelve to fifteen silver coins in the south. It costs about three to five silver coins a year to raise a horse.

But this is not the price of war horses, one out of a hundred war horses, a war horse is more expensive than a cow, about [-] silver coins, and it costs about ten silver coins to raise a war horse every year.

As for the horses selected from the best among the best in His Majesty's Horse Guard, the price cannot be measured. How to check the manpower, material resources, and rarity?

Just like people, although they are all horses, the gap between horses and horses is even greater than the gap between horses and donkeys. Their value and treatment are completely different.

Wang Qiyue is so powerful, and he is still the general manager of Guangdong and Guangxi merchants. It is extremely difficult to get a group of good horses from the Yumajian.

"Are there any summaries of common rogues?" Wang Qiyue asked a crucial question.

Lin Xiu flipped through the summary in his hand and said: "The poor horse can't do it for four hours, but can only do it for two hours. In the first hour, it can lift 18 catties per foot, and in the second hour, it can only lift 13 catties." , and then fell down from exhaustion."

A galloping horse can't take ten steps in one leap; a rough horse can ride ten times, and the merits are endless.

The reason is this, but Qiji can run for four hours, and a nasty horse can only run for two hours, and the price of a Qiji is more than double the price of a nasty horse.

"I don't have any doubts." Wang Qiyue started to make plans and occasionally raised his head to discuss with other merchants. The time passed quickly, and after a while, the sounds of discussions and calculations slowly subsided.

Wang Qiyue handed the test book in his hand to Wang Hu and said, "If compared with horsepower, I will choose steam engine."

Lin Xiu, the eunuch of internal funds, received a note, which was obviously a question from His Majesty behind the screen. Lin Xiu immediately asked, "Compared with manpower?"

"Manpower." Wang Qiyue shivered, only feeling a chill from the tailbone straight to the sky, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say.

Wang Qiyue is good at observing words and expressions, of course he guessed that His Majesty was watching them from a certain corner, this question was not asked by the eunuch in front of him, but by His Majesty.

To speak nonsense is to deceive the emperor, to answer truthfully, to put it nicely is called blunt admonition, to put it badly, it is courting death.

Among scholars, His Majesty is a violent, subjugated king who kills people at the slightest disagreement.

Wang Qiyue didn't hesitate, he didn't choose to deceive the emperor. In Wang Qiyue's heart, His Majesty is not the faint lord that the gang of scholars are talking about, but the wise emperor.

Choosing manpower instead of a steam engine is tantamount to saying that the steam engine that His Majesty has been working on in the past few months is not suitable for reuse.

Faithful words are harsh to the ears, but good for deeds.

Choose a one-horsepower steam engine or a poor horse?Naturally, the steam engine is chosen.

Choose a one-horsepower steam engine or human power?Nature chooses manpower.

Daming's labor cost is really too cheap.

After the double-acting piston steam engine cost seminar was over, everyone discussed with each other and left, but Wang Qiyue was stopped by Xing'an.

"President Wang Shang stays, Your Majesty declares." Xing'an led Wang Qiyue into the imperial study.

"I greet Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." Wang Qiyue bowed three times and kowtowed five times.
