Since I was studying, I have never seen such a shameless person! Xu Guangqi only felt that his heart was messy. Is the emperor's request too much? From the perspective of a Ming Dynasty, it is actually not an exaggeration. Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the king, and life and death are all in the hands of the king. What conditions should you ask your knowledge to contribute to the country? It is really an extreme no king or father!

But from the perspective of the teachings of friends, this requirement is quite excessive. You don’t allow us to preach, and you also let us work hard for you. Isn’t this obvious that you have to ask the donkey to do carrots and get the donkey to pull the mill? It’s simply too much!

Of course, Xu Guangqi felt that it was unrelated, barbarians, no king or father, like beasts, fearless but not virtuous, strong will lead to robbery, weak will lead to humbleness, and disregard for kindness. Anyway, he sold these guys, and he did not have any psychological pressure at all.

After thinking about it, Xu Guangqi bowed and said, "Qi Majesty, in the capital, there is a person named Johann Chan, who is good at the Western Barbarians of the Calendar and Firearms. He is a Jesuit missionary of the Holy Roman Empire in the West, a Catholic Jesuit monk and priest. This person is good at calendar, firearms and various miscellaneous studies. I originally wanted to lead him into the Royal Academy and think about his identity as the Western Barbarians, but he has not achieved success."

Chongzhen was curious, but said, "What is the Western barbarians not Western barbarians? It's good to be useful. Please invite him to participate in the matters of firearms and calendars."

Xu Guangqi bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, no. There are many secrets unique to me in the Royal Academy. If they know it, there may be a risk of being leaked. If those barbarians learn it at that time, it will be detrimental to me."

Chongzhen sneered and said, "Just a barbarian. Even if he wants to come, even if he learns and wants to take it out, he must be able to escape from the land of the Ming Dynasty alive! The Ming Dynasty is so big, where is the land not buried?"

..., Xu Guangqi had no idea what to say. It would be fine if the emperor was shameless, but he still just did not take these foreign barbarians seriously. A life may be a life that he had worked hard for himself. It was really shameless to bury him!

Of course, Chongzhen was shameless, Xu Guangqi thought it was nothing. All the more famous emperors in history were basically shameless. Look at the fact that Emperor Jing of Han killed the prince of King Wu with a chessboard, Li Shiming killed his brother and was happy and wrote it in the history books. Zhao Kuangyin put on the yellow robe in Chenqiao Post. Which of these wise lords and lords are shameless? On the contrary, those shameless emperors, like Emperor Wuzong and the late emperor, have disappeared without any clarity.

"Since that's the case, Your Majesty might as well lure it with a lot of money. The people of Western barbarians were originally very profitable. If Your Majesty promised to pay a lot of money, he would not be able to preach, and it would be nothing." Although Xu Guangqi felt that Emperor Chongzhen's approach to barbarians was unauthorized, he sold his gay friends and sold them thoroughly.

Chongzhen nodded and said to Xu Guangqi: "This is okay. If it is a problem that can be solved by money, it is not a problem."

He turned around and said to Wang Chengen, who was standing beside him, "Remember it and remind me after returning to the palace."

After Wang Chengen bowed, Chongzhen continued, "How is the matter with the flintlock gun?"

When Xu Guangqi heard this, his old face was pulled down, and he knew that the emperor would not come here if he was fine. As expected, it was still for this: "Qi Zhu Your Majesty, according to Your Majesty, the fire guns made are indeed convenient and easy to use, and are not afraid of rain. As long as the ammunition is not wet, it will not affect the use."

"But, the explosion was a little too fast. Some of them would explode after more than twenty rounds. Some of them were only thirty or fifty rounds. If they were used during the Eastern Expedition of Jiannu, each soldier would probably have to carry more than ten muskets to use in rotation. Otherwise, after a battle, he would have to use swords."

I bought a watch! Chongzhen cursed in his heart, this is a damn line! Shoot the yarn! Maybe I will blow my own people to death first, and then I will still have to hang it on the crooked tree!

Just when Chongzhen was unhappy, he heard Xu Guangqi say: "If the bore is abandoned, it will be much more convenient. Not only will the output be increased, but the blasting is also much less. A gun can be fired hundreds or even thousands of times without blowing it up."

Damn, I have never heard of 56 styles, 81 bars and so on in later generations. In an anime I have watched, the rabbit threw 566 and a half into the sand and stomped them all. I still picked them up and covered them all. I don’t want any awesome people in the Eagle Sauce family, just need ones that are similar to 566 and a half. This is not a high requirement? This is not a good person! He is a mother!

But it was finally a turnaround, and it was a bit good news that had smooth bores to use - it was much better than smooth bores. Although smooth bores were not good, at worst, they could not play fixed-point snipers, and they could still be done by queuing up and shooting.

But this matter is impossible. If Chongzhen wants to be happy, it will never be smooth in this life. Only a moment of happiness and annoyance will be the eternal cycle of Chongzhen in this life.

Sure enough, Xu Guangqi continued: "In fact, it's because the steel is not up to standard. If there is good steel, I will be confident that I will take the musket to go further. In addition, the steam engine mentioned by His Majesty the previous episode..."

Seeing Xu Guangqi smiled bitterly and stopped talking, Chongzhen said curiously: "What's wrong with that? It's also a problem with steel?"

Xu Guangqi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, that's not high demands on steel. According to the experiments performed by Your Majesty that day, if the seal is not tight, it will always leak steam into the world, and the pole inside will not be pushed. If it is closed tightly, it will be the same as that day. Either push the pole and shoot it out, or an explosion will happen, killing a craftsman."

Chongzhen was also sad when he heard this. This kind of thing was always inevitable. He was not a science dog, so it was not easy to know a steam engine and seal. How could he know what the rest would be? After thinking for a while, he had no idea. Chongzhen just said sadly: "Forget it, I'll give the craftsman's family a generous pension. If his family had a son, he would be my son enrolled in school. I can't let them sacrifice, and they would have no end. Such sacrifice for the country is not an exaggeration."

When Xu Guangqi heard this, he sighed and said, "Your Majesty is kind, I thank Your Majesty for your family."

Chongzhen was about to go back to the palace to relax, but because he held the chair handle with one hand, he suddenly remembered something in the future. He was excited to say to Xu Guangqi: "Xu Aiqing, I have an idea, but Xu Aiqing needs to verify it repeatedly."

Seeing that Chongzhen, who was still full of gloomy face just now, Xu Guangqi was very happy at this moment, and didn't know what Chongzhen thought of, so he had to bow and salute and said, "Your Majesty, please speak."

Chongzhen excitedly stretched out his arm and gestured, "Look at Xu Aiqing, this arm is back and forth. If it is stretched out and wants to retract it, what action should it do?"

Xu Guangqi looked at Chongzhen showing his arms outstretched and gestured like a child. He felt funny in his heart. But the emperor asked, and he had to answer: "Qi Zun Your Majesty, bend his elbow and retract, and this arm will naturally be retracted." While speaking, he also made a bent elbow retracting action.

It doesn't matter if this shrinkage is like the apple that happened to hit Newton's head. Xu Guangqi suddenly said, "Your Majesty's wise!"

Seeing Xu Guangqi's faces were also excited, Chongzhen said, "Did Xu Aiqing think of it?"

Xu Guangqi did not care about laughing in front of Chongzhen and was in a state of disgrace. He laughed loudly and said, "Qi Zun Your Majesty, the pole that was pushed out of this steam engine is my arm. If you want to retract it, you need an elbow."

Chongzhen also laughed and said, "Yes, after pushing the arm out, the elbow will be retracted after the turn of the arm. If a ring is set up in this machine, find a point on the ring, and hang the arm, and then it will stretch out and retract back? The steam drives the disc to rotate again and again, and the disc is connected to another shaft, isn't it power? Is it feasible to use it to push other equipment?"

After hearing this, Xu Guangqi thought for a while and raised his arm back and forth many times, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty is wise! I have heard that there are those who are smart in heaven and those who are smart in heaven think it is a misunderstanding, but now Your Majesty has proved that he is born with a divine gift, and I will worship you!"

Chongzhen, who was pretending to be a slut, smiled and said nothing. If he hadn't used his arm to hold the chair and wanted to stand up, he wouldn't have thought of the old-fashioned trains that were "hugging" in later generations.

Chongzhen, who was used to taking high-speed rail and planes, never thought of such things as the pike head train. In reality, in reality, except for the railway museum in Beijing, how can he see such artifacts? He has seen many in the anti-Japanese war dramas, such as Flying Tigers or Guerrillas, who often take off such trains or tracks to trouble the Japanese?

This kind of pike motorcycle burns coal, a large steam engine that is driven by a crankshaft connecting rod, and is not as fast as a horse. But this thing is so tired and doesn't eat beans. It drives a lot of goods. Even if it's slower, it will always be able to wander from the capital to Liaodong in half a month, right? At that time, some of the Ming soldiers who have been fully energetic on the train will be queuing up with Jiannu and queuing to kill them!

Chongzhen, who became more and more beautiful, said to Xu Guangqi: "Xu Aiqing still needs to try it out and try to get this steam engine out as soon as possible. I will definitely have a great reward at that time!"
