The title of aboriginal barbarians was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
However, this was only because the aboriginals didn't have the concept of science and technology. Furthermore, the aboriginals were so strong that they could solve most of the problems in this world with force.
Therefore, in other aspects, they would rarely think about it.
Although this saying wasn't entirely correct, it explained a lot of the problem.
Because they were lazy, they wanted to use tricks and came up with all kinds of labor-saving methods. This was the prototype of machinery.
However, after a period of studying "The Foundation of Science and Technology — Physics," the students of the Black Bamboo Academy were no longer the traditional aboriginals who only had muscles in their brains.
Although they hadn't made a steam engine with the little knowledge they had learned due to their lack of vision and experience, they had made a pressure cooker!
Da, da, da!
The ground in front of the row of students was splashed with mud!
"What I want is a steam engine … Can you make a pressure cooker for me in 12 days? Huh? "
Looking at Ren Baqian, who was brandishing the [81] rifle, the students standing at the front were all smiling mischievously.
"Teacher, we are already halfway there … With the intake pipe, pistons, shunt box, connecting rods, and crank wheels, it will be a simple steam engine!" Shi Gan vowed.
"I don't believe you!" Ren Baqian was so angry that he almost laughed.
"Someone, hang all of them on the flagpoles! Let them flutter in the wind and find themselves! "Ren Baqian said angrily.
"Who dares to hang me?" Tong Lan, the little lolita, immediately exploded and jumped ten feet high.
"Sir, we don't have enough poles!" The guards looked at the three wooden pillars in the courtyard that were about five to six meters tall and felt a little awkward.
"Hang the rest of them on the wall!" Ren Baqian said hatefully.
In less than two hours, Tong Lan, who had dark circles under her eyes, and a group of mischievous students were hanging on the wall of the academy …
There were three pillars in the courtyard, and there were six people hanging on each pillar!
Some of the palace guards who were passing by laughed out loud when they saw more than a dozen people hanging on the pillars and a row of people hanging on the wall.
Ren Baqian strolled back to the palace. The empress had just finished her morning court session and casually asked him when she saw his dark face.
After hearing what Ren Baqian said, the empress chuckled. "You have to put some thought into teaching your students. The teacher who taught me back then was so angry that he smashed a table every day! "
He didn't expect the empress to have such a dark history!
However, when Ren Baqian asked again, the empress smiled and didn't answer.
The empress pointed at a row of wooden doors and said, "We should change the paper windows in this hall to glass so that it will be brighter."
After all, the transparency of window paper was much lower, and it was very easy to tear. If it was made of glass, the bedroom would not be so dark.
The empress had always disliked an empty and cold palace. She preferred a brighter place.
"I have already gotten someone to do it. It will be done in another two days." Ren Baqian was successfully diverted by the empress.
The two of them walked around in the garden. Ren Baqian plucked a small white flower and placed it in her hair bun. The empress smiled and asked, "Outstanding?"
Ren Baqian looked at the little white flower. Sure enough, it was that outstanding little white flower from back then. He immediately laughed.
After walking around in the garden with the empress, Ren Baqian's mood immediately improved.
Otherwise, he would be so angry that he would have a heart attack if he had to face those idiots every day.
Two days later, the glass that Ren Baqian had instructed was ready, and they began to replace the paper windows in the bedroom. Fortunately, the original window frame was very thick, and the six millimeters thick glass could be placed inside. After that, a wooden strip was used to seal the back of the empress's bedroom. Immediately, the empress's bedroom became brighter, and people wouldn't feel bored inside.
However, another problem arose. Ever since the glass windows were replaced, the temperature in the bedroom began to rise … Fortunately, the hall was deep and spacious enough. With the addition of ice and fans, the empress wasn't affected much.
The empress was in a good mood for the next few days. Especially at night, when the two of them had dinner in the palace and lit up a string of lanterns, the empress's mood was exceptionally good. She was always smiling, unlike the cold and cheerless appearance she had in front of others. The two of them sat opposite each other in the depths of the palace and drank softly. It was rather heartwarming.
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan felt this particularly deeply.
In the past, the empress was always cold and cheerless, and people didn't dare to get close to her. The empress today was like a completely different person compared to a year ago.
Even though she still looked cold and cheerless at other times, she was a little better than before and wouldn't get angry easily.
With Principal Ren by her side, the empress smiled more often. Even if she didn't smile, her face wouldn't be cold. She gave off a much gentler vibe and was easier to get close to.
After replacing the glass windows in the empress's bedroom, the next step was the throne room.
A few days later, when Tong Zhengye went to court, he saw many people standing in front of the throne room whispering to each other. He was wondering if some unlucky fellow had offended the empress and gotten whipped. As a result, he walked forward with his legs crossed, raised his head, and followed everyone's gaze. He was stunned.
There were a total of twelve doors in the throne room. Usually, only six of them were open, and everyone couldn't be more familiar with them.
However, at this moment, the paper windows on the twelve doors of the throne room had disappeared.
"What's going on?" Tong Zhengye was a little puzzled.
"Why did Her Majesty remove the paper windows? Could it be that it's so cool? " Qin Chuan and Tong Zhengye arrived one after the other. Seeing that everyone had stopped, they didn't stop. Instead, they walked forward with their legs crossed, stretched out their hands, and patted the originally empty paper windows.
"Crash …"
The main door was inlaid with a piece of glass. At this moment, it shattered into countless pieces and fell to the ground.
Qin Chuan was dumbfounded … He looked at his hand and then at the door.
This time, everyone finally discovered the problem. "There's something on it!"
"Is it crystal?"
"It's worth a lot!"
"I'm afraid Sir Qin is going to get beaten up!"
"Where did so many large pieces of crystal come from? Furthermore, they're so thin that you can't see them if you don't look carefully. "
"Is this the thing called glass that Principal Ren made?" Tong Zhengye immediately thought of the glass factory outside the city. However, that factory belonged to the imperial family, and he was only responsible for finding some craftsmen. He didn't know much about what happened after that, but he knew that it was making a transparent crystal-like thing.
After pondering for a while, Tong Zhengye looked at Qin Chuan with evil intentions and laughed mischievously.
Qin Chuan's face darkened when he heard everyone gloating over his misfortune.
"Sir Minister, you're amazing!" Lian Liang from the Department of the Army gave a thumbs up.
With a black face, Qin Chuan sent Lian Liang flying with a kick.
A moment later, the empress entered the door and discovered that the glass had been broken less than a day after it was installed. She immediately raised the corner of her eyes and emitted a murderous aura.
Then, the culprit, Qin Chuan, was sent flying out of the throne room by the empress with a kick.
A few days later, another glass shop opened in Lan City for the imperial family, and it was immediately overcrowded.
