Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty One Can't Explain
"Hand-crank generator?"
For Ying Zheng, this is undoubtedly a new word and he cannot understand it at all.
But one thing is for sure, as long as this guy is researching something, it must be something good!
"That's right, it's a machine that relies on human power to create electric current!"
Ying Feiyu explained briefly.
The generator is a reward given by the system boss when solving Loulan's dilemma.
At that time, I thought this thing was old and backward, and it was almost taken back by the system!
When I returned to Xianyang, I forgot about it. Now it is just right to use it to rescue a few old guys and lure Ying Zheng back to Xianyang!
"Create electricity?"
"What is this current?"
This explanation didn't matter, not only did Ying Zheng blink and stare at him in confusion, even a few old guys raised questions, seeming even more confused than before.
"Let's put it this way! Father, ministers, do you still remember that when I just returned to the court, Taishi Ling falsely accused me of being unlucky. In order to prove that I was the disciple of the immortal, I used a red-tasseled spear and a thick
Iron chains trigger thunder?”
In order to let them understand better, Ying Feiyu used the incident that caused the thunder as an example.
"Yeah! Remember! It really scared us back then. That Cheng Qian is really not a good guy. Just because he is the Taishi Ling, he used the celestial phenomena as an excuse to frame our Crown Prince!"
"No! Fortunately, His Highness the Crown Prince can produce evidence to prove that he is the disciple of the immortal!"
Although more than three years have passed since the incident, when I think back, I still remember a few old guys vividly.
When the thunder suddenly broke out, he hit the red tassel spear without any bias and even shocked them!
"Yeah! I also remember that after the thunder, it rained heavily!"
Ying Zheng also nodded and recalled the scene at that time.
At that time, this boy had just arrived in Da Qin, and not many civil and military officials in the dynasty were convinced.
But after this time, many ministers turned to his side.
Disciple of God!
Most people can't afford it!
Don't fall asleep one day, and suddenly a lightning strikes on the roof.
Even if the people in the house are not burnt, they will not be able to eat anything good!
"That's right! It was that time. Does your father still remember that when the thunder sounded, there was a bright light that first hit the red tassel gun?"
In this era, people only know that lightning comes first and then thunder, but they do not know the professional knowledge about the propagation speed of sound and light.
It would take a long time to explain it.
Simply without explanation, he directly asked if he had seen the bright light before!
"Of course I saw it. Every time the thunder sounded, there would be a flash of light!"
Everyone nodded repeatedly and stared at Ying Feiyu, listening carefully to his next words.
"But it's very bright?"
"That's right! It's indeed very bright!"
Everyone nodded.
"That's right, this hand-operated generator produces exactly this kind of light!"
Ying Feiyu slapped his thigh in surprise, finally explaining it to them.
However, everyone was not surprised at all. Instead, they looked at him as if he were a fool.
"You brat, isn't this nonsense? You actually want to create thunder and lightning? We are really afraid that our country in Daqin will be too stable!"
After a while, Ying Zheng stood up angrily.
Ying Feiyu looked confused.
Aren't they happy that they can see Da Qin's first electric light soon?
Even if you are unhappy, you won’t be angry, right?
Is this old guy entering menopause?
Why is your temper so hot?
"Your Highness, what's so bad about your invention that you want to invent thunder and lightning? This thing is really beyond the control of our mortal bodies!"
"Yes! Your Royal Highness, you are the apprentice of the gods. You may be able to control it, but we really can't!"
"That's right! The power of thunder and lightning is too great, we... we won't watch it...!"
In order not to be sent out by Ying Zheng to help the people with the autumn harvest tomorrow, they asked Ying Feiyu to persuade Ying Zheng to return to the court.
Unexpectedly, this boy would use thunder and lightning to attract His Majesty.
Good guy!
Even if they heard it, they didn’t want to see it, let alone Your Majesty!
If one thing goes wrong, your life will be at stake!
Compared to this, they might as well be harvesting grain from these people. Even if they are exhausted, they can still gain a good reputation!
If they were struck to death by lightning when they returned home, and if word spread, the people would scold them for deserved it, and they were the ones who brought it upon themselves to die!
Therefore, everyone was slapping their faces with extremely ugly expressions!
"Father, you don't have to be afraid. Although the power of thunder and lightning is powerful, didn't I use iron chains last time to introduce the lightning into the earth and did not destroy the house...?"
Looking at everyone's constipated expressions, Ying Feiyu continued to explain, "So, as long as thunder and lightning are used properly, it can be used by humans! And it will also bring great convenience to people's lives!"
Speaking of this, everyone suddenly remembered that the boy did want two things, one was a red tassel gun, and the other was a thick and long iron chain.
At that time, everyone was focused on the red tassel gun and completely forgot about the iron chain!
"Even if you kid can control the direction of thunder and lightning, how can you control such a powerful force?"
Ying Zheng still rolled his eyes.
"Father, I am just using thunder and lightning as an analogy. The hand-operated generator produces something similar to thunder and lightning, but the power is many, many times smaller!"
Ying Feiyu was dumbfounded by what they did.
In their impression, thunder and lightning are so powerful that once they are hit, there is no chance of survival!
But think about it on the other hand, electricity has never appeared in this era. The only electricity people know about is thunder and lightning. It would be a lie to say that they are not afraid of it!
"His Royal Highness, you mean to say that you want to create thunder and lightning?"
Feng Quji seemed to understand and asked tentatively.
"Yes, that's what I mean!"
"The more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes. Thunder and lightning are controlled by gods. How can we say that they are created?"
Ying Zheng still had a sullen face.
He is the one who believes in ghosts and gods the most, otherwise he wouldn’t have been clamoring for some elixir of immortality all day long!
Xu Fu defrauded people and money!
"Father, please don't forget that I am the apprentice of the gods. If you want to create thunder and lightning, you only need to find a back door from the master!"
Since this old guy believes in gods so much, he simply used this to fool him.
It won’t be too late to give a detailed explanation after I actually see electricity in the future!
"Forehead……"
As expected, upon hearing these words, Ying Zheng's previously decisive attitude softened.
"Then what is the use of this electricity you are talking about after it is built?"
"This is a long story. The applications of electricity are really too wide. The first thing I want to talk about is lighting. It can make the night as bright as day. It can also replace part of the steam engine, let the machine operate, and it can also produce a lot of products.
Machines that are beneficial to life, such as televisions...!"
