Chapter 1427 Science Fiction
Gao Huan heard Song Yingxing's words, laughed and encouraged everyone, and then boarded the Kunlun.
After Song Xiance proposed, Gao Huan learned from the Guoan Department that the Kunlun had been tried on the Yangtze River many times, and the technology was relatively mature, and the possibility of capsizing was very small.
Therefore, Gao Huan acted with a very trustworthy attitude and boarded the first steam ship of mankind.
With trains ahead, people have become much more accepting of steamships, and there is no shock when they first saw the train.
In addition, Kunlun often tests on the Yangtze River, it is no longer surprising that the people of Ganchao are familiar with it.
Gao Huan boarded the ship and waved his hand to say goodbye to the officials who were seeing him off. The ship whistled, emitting black smoke, left the dock, and reversed the Yangtze River to Nanjing.
The officials and people of Shanghai County at the dock waved to see off His Majesty the Emperor.
A Portuguese in the crowd saw this scene and remembered it in his heart. When he returned to the mall, he drew the Kunlun image based on his memory and wrote a long letter to send it back to Europe.
"The great changes that have taken place in the East today will inevitably affect the whole world in the future! If European countries cannot obtain steam engine technology, they will belong to the East in the future. Everything I see in the East makes me suspect that we are not God's electorate, God may be an Oriental..."
During the same period, many missionaries in China suffered a huge impact on their thoughts. They wrote a large number of letters and sent them back to Europe.
In his letter to the Pope, John Cham, the president of the Jesuit, mentioned, "Although the people of Ganchao have not received God's salvation, almost everything is superior to the Europeans!"
The economic prosperity and military strength brought about by the Industrial Revolution in Ganchao are affecting the world and causing huge impact on countries around the world.
At this time, the Kunlun left the dock, and the paddle wheels on both sides entered the Yangtze River. Gao Huan stood on the deck and saw ships shuttled across the river, as if they were much more busy again.
After the coalition forces withdrew from India, conflicts broke out among Indian countries, and Gao Huan sold weapons to the six countries through Zhang Xianzhong and Sun Kewang.
This has enabled Ganchao's manufacturing industry to obtain a large number of orders. In order to complete these orders, all walks of life are expanding production and improving efficiency. Various machines have been improved by factory owners and workers, greatly improving production capacity.
In addition, during the Indian War, the Yingxing rifle and the Lianzhu machine gun used by Ganchao were also among the prime ministers of various vassal states. A large number of orders poured into Dachao, prospering the Ganchao economy and promoting factory production.
At this time, Gao Huan stood for a while and felt a lot of emotion. Until a gust of wind blew and felt a little chill, he returned to the cabin and sat in the room, looking at his subordinates collecting newspapers.
Gao Huan has not been in the court for a long time. Now he returns to the court, and he needs to understand the situation of the battle.
In addition to reading government documents, Gao Huan also has a habit of reading newspapers.
At this time, he saw a newspaper and suddenly his eyes lit up and was immediately attracted by the content on it.
This is a private tabloid. The national affairs occupy very small sections, mainly about market secrets and gossip of a celebrity.
Another feature of this newspaper is that it has a board and the entire page is serialized novels.
Gao Huan was attracted by the above novels.
Because this is not a traditional novel, but a science fiction novel. After a hundred years of fantasy, various steam machines appear in the world, and the protagonist drives a steam submarine to adventure in Haiti.
This should be the emergence of steam trains and steam ships, which opened up the author's ideas.
The imagination of literary works actually has a great promoting effect on scientific progress.
Gao Huan was on the way back to China by boat and had nothing to do on the boat. In fact, it took more than two months to write a science fiction novel.
If Gao Huan pointed out directly, the future technology tree is a bit too incredible, so he hopes to use novels to describe the future world and future war weapons to open up ideas for Gan Chaoren.
Gao Huan originally wanted to find an opportunity to publish after coming back, and to create a science fiction genre, but he didn't expect to be taken first.
However, this is a good thing. The active folk thoughts indicate that they have come out of the rigid eight-legged essay. When the people have imagination, scientific research will be more energetic.
After all, many inventions first think of what they want, then conduct experiments, find materials, and make things.
Gao Huan found that newspaper and read the science fiction novel. The author's writing style is very good and the story is interesting, but in terms of imagination, Gao Huan thinks he is still not as good as himself.
Because he almost copied the future technology, aircraft, tanks, missiles, and kneaded them all. People who are now looking at it are simply an explosion of imagination.
Gao Huan put down the newspaper and felt that the advantage lies with me. After deciding to go to Nanjing, he found a newspaper and published it quietly.
...
Gao Huan was not in the capital for a long time, and the court that was working hard had long been used to not having the emperor to operate as usual.
Therefore, after Gao Huan returned to China, there was nothing to do. He just sent someone to call some officials to the palace to learn about various situations, and then let the court run itself without interfering in government affairs too much.
On that day, Gao Huan was looking at the newspaper in the imperial garden. He suddenly frowned and read the newspaper over and over again several times, but he did not find his serial novel.
"Go and call Yang Yan!" Gao Huan slapped the newspaper on the stone table.
Soon, Yang Yan came over and saluted, "Your Majesty is looking for me!"
Gao Huan said in a deep voice: "Why did the newspaper you asked you to find to be half-serialized and suddenly changed to another novel?"
After Gao Huan returned to Nanjing, he asked Yang Yan to find a newspaper and published the novel he wrote anonymously.
Although His Majesty the Emperor has written many great works, they are all boring theoretical books and have never written novels yet.
Although Gao Huan was full of confidence in his thoughts, in order to avoid bad response, he decided to publish anonymously.
It doesn't matter if Yang Yan is in major newspapers. In order to complete the emperor's mission, he asked a friend to read the manuscript. At first, he was unwilling to help.
However, after collecting 100 yuan for Qianyuan, he agreed to help because he was a close minister of the emperor and let Gao Huan's novel be serialized. However, less than 30% of it was serialized, and the newspaper published Gao Huan's novel.
Yang Yan was shocked when he heard this. Who dared to kill His Majesty the Emperor?
However, His Majesty the Emperor asked to publish anonymously. Those who engage in culture and news are a little proud. They don’t know that it was a novel written by the emperor, so it is normal to shoot it halfway.
Thinking of this, Yang Yan hurriedly said, "I don't know, I'll go and ask now."
