Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked
Chapter 242 Chapter 242: Want to issue Dragon Yuan coins? I don’t have that skill yet (page 12)
In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang still didn't redeem ID cards for everyone. The main reason was that the national fortune value was too much, and he felt a little distressed!
"It will happen sooner or later anyway, why are you anxious?"
"It's enough to have an ID card so that we can have a place to stay after entering the city!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said, taking the lead and walking into the city!
Soon, the group entered the city.
Along the way, Lan Yu and others were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, amazed by everything they saw!
Especially the telephone poles and wires leading to thousands of households that only existed in this era were almost unthinkable in the Hongwu Dynasty!
Some of the shops facing the street have electric lights on even in broad daylight!
In the Hongwu Dynasty, electricity and lights could only be used in some special places in Hanzhong Prefecture and Xi'an Prefecture!
For example, business buildings, such as the Han Dynasty Palace and the Imperial Palace, as well as the offices of the imperial yamen!
For other areas, don’t even think about it!
As for the ministers, they have no electricity in their homes, so they have to use candles for lighting!
More than three hundred years later, it seems that electricity has been spread throughout the Ming Dynasty. Even in the countryside, basically everything is electrified!
Of course, this is only limited to the local areas of the Ming Dynasty, such as some cities in Mobei and some cities in the Western Regions. There is no such power coverage in those far-flung areas!
In addition, the billboards that can be seen everywhere on the streets and the traffic lights that light up at intersections are also novelties that Lan Yu and others have never seen before!
The streets are also busy with traffic, but the cars of this period are all classic cars, Beetle style!
Most ordinary people still take the trams that can be seen everywhere to travel in the city!
After all, not everyone can afford a private car, and only powerful people can afford it!
Fortunately, people like Zhu Yuanzhang, who have already had a time-travel experience, can explain to Lan Yu and others what is going on with the iron cars that can run casually on the street. Otherwise, these guys who have never seen the world might take these. What kind of monster does the car look like!
"In fact, this technology is not difficult to understand. It is nothing more than an engine inside these cars that is specially used to provide power!"
"You should all know about the steam engine ships that were just developed some time ago. For example, steam engine ships use steam engines as power output without the need for manpower or wind!"
"It's just that the engine used in the bicycle is smaller and more sophisticated!"
Zhu Li also introduced the principles of these vehicles to Lan Yu and others in the simplest and easiest way.
"I see!"
"Can we make a car like this if we return to the Hongwu Dynasty?"
Zhang Yan asked excitedly at this time.
This is a car that can run on its own without horses. It’s really amazing!
How great would it be if we could build such a car back in the Hongwu Dynasty?
Who will use horses to pull things in the future?
"I'm afraid it won't be possible in a short time. The development of technology takes time!"
"The Hongwu Dynasty had just developed the steam engine, and electricity had not yet been widely spread. We are still far away from developing this kind of bicycle!"
"But there's nothing wrong with the steam locomotive, it's just that it's not very practical!"
"It's better to research the steam engine train first!"
Zhu Yue shook his head, and what he said inevitably made Zhang Yan and others look disappointed.
In other words, they probably won’t see such cars appear in the Hongwu period in their lifetime!
"Steam train?"
"What's a train?"
Lan Yu asked curiously at this time.
"A train is a means of transportation that requires tracks as a fixed line!"
"See those streetcars?"
"The principles are similar, except that steam engine trains burn coal and need a steam engine to provide power. It is a similar concept to a steam engine ship!"
Zhu Li explained slowly.
Compared with developing cars, it was not difficult to be able to connect trains in the Hongwu Dynasty. After traveling back this time, we can start experimenting with steam engine trains!
After all, steam engines have been used on ships, and there is no big technical bottleneck when used in trains!
And compared to cars, trains are actually more efficient in transportation, but they are not as convenient as cars!
All I can say is that each has its pros and cons!
"Cars, trains and the like are trivial. In this era, there are still planes that can fly in the sky!"
Zhu Yuanzhang also laughed at this time.
"A plane flying in the sky?"
"What's that?"
When Lan Yu and others heard this, they were even more confused!
So Zhu Yue and others began to teach Lan Yu and others about what an airplane is!
When they heard that a big iron lump could actually carry people to the sky, and that it only took a few hours to reach a distance of thousands of miles, Lan Yu and others were even more shocked!
However, during this period, the probability of aircraft danger is still very high!
The main reason is that the weather monitoring methods during this period have not yet reached the standards of modern society. If the aircraft encounters extremely bad weather, it is likely to cause problems!
So air crashes happen from time to time in this era!
Of course, ordinary people can't actually afford to fly, so they mostly take trains for long-distance travel, which is just a bit slower!
But compared to the Hongwu Dynasty, I don’t know how many times it was faster!
In the train era, the journey from Yingtianfu to Xi'an only took about a day!
In the era of high-speed rail, it will be even faster!
However, Zhu Yue and the others did not explain it in too much detail because it was not necessary!
"Okay, let me go to the Huangwei Taoist Temple to make contact first, and let the royal family know that we are coming. Once we contact the royal family, we won't have to go to such trouble!"
Zhu Yue said to Zhu Yuanzhang at this time.
"Okay, you go ahead. We'll just stroll around the street and wait for you to come back!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded simply.
Zhu Li, the Chengwu Patriarch, was personally at the Imperial Guard Taoist Temple, so there would definitely be no problem in contacting the royal family through these Taoist priests!
Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't need to worry at all!
In just half an hour, Zhu Li returned to the team.
"Have you already said that?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
"Well, I've asked people from the Taoist temple to inform that boy Zhu Zhiqin!"
Zhu Li smiled and nodded.
Anyway, it’s still early, so tonight at least we don’t have to be like the last time we traveled, where a bunch of people had to stay in an Internet cafe all night!
And in this era, there are no places like Internet cafes where they can go!
But there are also nightclubs, places like Paramount!
