Chapter 250 Chemical Reaction
In Gu Yongqiang's eyes, Mao Geng has always been calm and at ease. What happened today is a bit abnormal.
In general, Gu Yongqiang highly agrees with Mao Geng's strategy. Among the time travelers, Gu Yongqiang also highly praised farming. In Gu Yongqiang's view, the fact that he was a stubborn official has always been in the category of thick black, with great risks and long cycles. If he didn't do it well, he would lose all his money, and even lose his head. From this point of view, climbing the technology tree is the right thing to do.
Politics and officialdom have always been deep waters, so don’t think too simple.
Moreover, the current emperor Zhao Xing is indeed a strong emperor. As the saying goes, accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger. A strong emperor is generally a suspicious master. It is really not easy to have such a boss to take power. Mao Geng said it well, Xin Qiji and Zhu Xi are very capable, but so what if they are very capable! In this dynasty, it is not a bumpy career, and they have never been involved in the power center of the Song Dynasty in their entire lives.
Therefore, a small land area is drawn here in Taiwan as a special zone, whether it is a test field or a reform window, which is a masterpiece of Taizong in later generations. Mao Geng borrowed it from the Song Dynasty, which is obviously a manifestation of political wisdom.
As for Mao Geng insisting on saying that this is fishing, this statement is really far-fetched at first glance, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t make any sense. For example, in the later years, Taizong set up a special zone, which was actually a temptation to cut the beginning and the end. After the special zone became popular, even those conservatives could not resist the huge ***k, from being jealous, to becoming fans, anyway, they all fell in love with Taizong’s Taoism.
Hehe, this "fishing" mode is very high!
Judging from the standard of "speaking the truth after drinking", it seems that Mao Geng has drunk too much. By the way, there is a grand Lantern Festival party to be held in the evening. Chief Executive Mao must attend, and must not make any mistakes due to drinking.
With Gu Yongqiang's timely advice, this small wine finally came to order.
The Lantern Festival Gala this evening attracted more than 8,000 people to participate. Because it was the first in this era, the audience in the audience was fascinated by the show. As for the program, it is naturally a reference to the Spring Festival Gala that has been learned from later generations, including singing and dancing, crosstalk, and magic.
Mao Geng felt a little dizzy after drinking, and there were some familiar routines on the stage, so Mao Geng felt familiar programs coming on stage like a lantern, constantly coming off the stage and going off the stage.
Until Wang Yunzhi came to the stage.
Wang Yunzhi is his former disciple and Zhu Xi's current disciple. Wang Yunzhi's performance is - Magic.
Mao Geng cheered up. At this moment, Mao Geng's attention was highly concentrated and he stared at Wang Yunzhi on the stage without any moment.
The lighting effect tonight is really dazzling. The spotlight made of glass mirrors is equipped with a special lighting engineer to control it. At this moment, it shines around Wang Yunzhi. Wang Yunzhi put on a little light makeup, making Wang Yunzhi look even more red in lips and white in teeth.
The previous magic is "Fried Eggs with Clear Water".
Wang Yunzhi performed as if he was like a show. First, he picked up two eggs and explained, "Please see, I'll beat two eggs in the bowl now."
"Then, I stir the eggs evenly." The audience stared at them, and Wang Yunzhi used chopsticks to stir the eggs again and again.
"Now, the eggs are mixed well. I'm starting to perform fried eggs."
"Please see, this is a porcelain plate. All the readers have seen it. I just poured a little water into the plate. Please see, there is nothing else except a shallow layer of water, right?"
The audience saw a large porcelain plate. Sure enough, there was only a small amount of shallow transparent liquid inside. No one suspected that it was not water. Could it be that water can really fried eggs?
"Now, I'm going to fry the eggs."
The audience saw that Wang Yunzhi poured the eggs in the bowl into the plate.
No response!
Just as the audience was disappointed, Wang Yunzhi explained as if it were true:
"Sorry! It seems that there is a little less water in the plate. I will add a little more and I can fry the egg."
Someone in the audience secretly complained, among which there were rich disciples who didn't know the truth. They thought to themselves that you, the junior brother, couldn't do anything safely and didn't calculate the dose in advance, which simply threw away the face of our rich disciples.
So, under the gaze of the audience, Wang Yunzhi picked up a glass cup containing water on the glass coffee table and added water to the plate.
Sure enough, One Plus Water, as the little magician said, the plate looked like oil splashing everywhere, the heat was surging, and the eggs were actually frying in the plate.
As the little magician kept stirring the eggs, the eggs were about to be fried in a short while. Anyway, they were just fried and turned into an egg cake.
Suddenly, there were applause and screams from the audience, and cheers were filled with cheers.
Mao Geng was very satisfied with Wang Yunzhi's performance. It seemed that the director's script was quite good. Wang Yunzhi was also very talented in his performance. In fact, this was just an exothermic reaction of sulfuric acid when it came to water. The first time Wang Yunzhi poured it into concentrated sulfuric acid, not water! The eggs were poured into a plate with sulfuric acid and did not react, but the second time it was poured into water was really water. This time, sulfuric acid was exothermic, and the acid water splashed everywhere, steaming, just like fried eggs in oil pan.
Although this little chemistry magic drama is good, the exciting ones are still coming.
"Dear viewers, the above performance of fried eggs is amazing! But this is not much. What I performed below is a more exciting magic, and the name of the magic is called 'magic lamp'."
The scene suddenly became even more enthusiastic, and the audience's appetite was once again hung up. Today's good shows came one after another. The magic just now was already magical enough. What kind of magic is there that makes people look forward to?
The light on the stage suddenly became dimmed, and then the light lit up again. When I looked again, a table with velvet cloth had been laid on the stage. There was a thing on the table. There was a spherical glass shell above the thing, and the top of the shell was a pointed glass tip. Under the glass ball shell, there was a wooden seat. The eyes were pointed, and I saw something seemed to be inside the glass.
The little magician spoke:
"Dear readers, this is the magical magic lamp. This lamp does not require fire to light it, and does not need to blow it. As long as I shout "bright", it will light it up, and when I shout "blow", it will be destroyed. Dear readers, do you believe it?"
"Don't believe it."
"The genius believed!"
"Unless it is a ghost lamp, no, unless it is a fairy lamp!"
-------
"I shouted, pay attention! Pay attention!"
"One, two, three, bright!"
Before Wang Yunzhi could finish calling out the word "bright" when the glass ball cover lit up, not only lit up, but also shiny. Look at the brightness, it is not inferior to the alcoholic steam lamp!
This time, the audience was in full bloom.
"One, two, three, destroy!"
Similarly, before the word "destroy" was called, the magic lamp on the table was turned off. After it was turned off, it looked like an ordinary spherical glass cover.
It's so amazing! It's really so amazing! The audience here all think it's so amazing. Mao Geng even imagined that after this scene, Wang Yunzhi will become a rising star in the Song Dynasty.
-------
Three days later, the "New News of the Special Administrative Region" published two articles by the famous reporter Liu Guo.
One is "Magic Science - Magic Deciphering of the Lantern Festival Gala".
Deciphering the first magic trick, reporter Liu Da explained that sulfuric acid exothermics when it comes to water, just like quicklime exothermics when it comes to water, it is a chemical reaction. As for what sulfuric acid is, reporter Liu Da was vague.
As for the second magic, the prop is actually a bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp with a battery. Of course, reporter Liu Da cannot explain it in detail. He just said that magical electricity can light up magical electric lamps, which is science.
Bamboo charcoal wire electric lamps were used in history for more than 20 years. It was not until the tungsten wire was released more than 20 years later that bamboo charcoal wire electric lamps were withdrawn from the stage of history.
By the way, the bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp was invented by Edison in 1880. Almost every Chinese student has read this inspirational story about Edison's invention of the electric lamp. In history, Edison led a group of people to experiment with 7,000 kinds of materials, and finally successfully developed the practical bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp.
After the bamboo fiber is carbonized, it has electrical conductivity and has a suitable resistance value. The bamboo charcoal wire can shine after it is energized.
Of course, the most important point is the lifespan of bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp. In a vacuum environment, the lifespan of bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp exceeds one thousand hours, and can be used for at least half a year. It is a truly practical lamp with practical value.
Before inventing the bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp, the life of the cotton charcoal wire carbon fiber electric lamp invented by Edison was 45 hours, and it was known as the first electric lamp in the world. The lamp was also exhibited at the Shanghai World Expo. It was Edison's masterpiece in 1879.
The shape of the bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp used in Lantern Festival Magic is almost exactly the same as the shape of Edison's first electric lamp. The top glass tip is required for craftsmanship and is used to vacuum and heat seal. The traveler has not yet done tungsten wire, so he can only use bamboo charcoal wire at present. The requirements cannot be too high. The bamboo charcoal wire electric lamp that can be used for more than half a year has already achieved commercial use value.
As for another prop battery, it is a lead-acid battery. Historically, the lead-acid battery was invented by the Frenchman Plante in 1859. As a professional in chemistry, it is natural to make a lead-acid battery by fiddling out sulfuric acid. Of course, it still takes a little time to try to make a lead-acid battery. Although this thing is simple, Gu Yongqiang also struggled for two or three months, and finally came in handy during the Lantern Festival.
Reporter Liu Da was originally interviewing Wang Yunzhi, but Wang Yunzhi made a comment and said that this was mainly due to the chemistry expert Mr. Gu.
So, reporter Liu Da specially asked reporter Liu Da for an exclusive interview.
The topic of the interview is "The Song Dynasty needs chemical reactions."
After the review of Gu Yongqiang's words, there was a passage like this:
"Chemistry is magical. It can bring us a magical visual feast, it can bring us magical electricity, and in the future, it will also bring us a great agricultural harvest - an incredible agricultural harvest. However, chemistry requires that conditions and conditions are met to react chemically and bring us miracles."
