Chapter 341 Winning a Stove in a Lottery
Zhou Ziqi had suffered a great change before, and other things were no longer of interest to him. After being rescued by Wei Ling, he devoted himself to studying medicine.
Therefore, what Su Jixiang had told him before about the deadly microorganisms that caused wound inflammation and deterioration opened the door to a new world for Zhou Ziqi.
And this microscope is the key to that world.
So Zhou Ziqi was overjoyed when he got the microscope drawings!
"Madam, the cowpox you mentioned before can prevent children from getting chickenpox." Zhou Ziqi asked, holding the notebook Su Jixiang gave him on how to make a microscope, "Can you tell me in detail?"
"I'll think about it carefully when I get back and write it down for you." Su Jixiang said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll find a craftsman to do this first!" Zhou Ziqi said with a smile.
He ran away in two steps, holding the things Su Jixiang gave him, like a child.
With penicillin, Su Jixiang can greatly improve the survival rate of the Black Tiger Army on the battlefield.
Therefore, letting Zhou Ziqi produce penicillin is a very important step in helping Wei Ling stabilize the north.
After Zhou Ziqi showed penicillin, Wei Zhong brought someone to Su Jixiang.
"Madam, this is Master Mao." Wei Zhong said to Su Jixiang, "Currently, Master Mao is in charge of the casting of the entire villa."
This man was about forty years old, looked very strong, not very tall, but his hands and feet were slender and strong.
"You made the glass?" Su Jixiang asked with a smile.
"Yes." Master Mao quickly saluted, "I am Mao Lisheng, and I am grateful to the prince and his wife for looking up to me and entrusting me with this important task!"
"He was originally a master in charge of making mechanisms among the secret guards." Wei Zhong said. "He is very skillful, Madam, you can trust him."
Master Mao blushed and quickly took a piece of cast glass to show Su Jixiang.
The glass was made very evenly and smoothly. Although its purity and clarity did not reach the level of modern craftsmanship, Su Jixiang was already amazed.
You have to know that she only had a vague understanding of glass making, so what was written in the notebook was just a rough process. She didn't mark out the specific details. However, Master Mao was able to rely on her vague notes and her own exploration to make glass in such a short time. She is simply a genius!
"When I was in the capital before, a craftsman from the Kingdom of Dashi came to our Daxie and claimed that he could make glass comparable to crystal." Master Mao saw Su Jixiang inspecting the glass and praising him at the same time, and smiled embarrassedly, "At that time, I was lucky enough to sneak into the crowd and meet that craftsman. Later, he did make glass, but because of the uneven distribution of the spoils among the noble families, he died in vain! I was amazed when I saw the glass he made at that time, so I have been studying the secrets of it. Later, the lady brought the notes, which made the subordinates feel like they had found a treasure. Many things that I didn't understand before were reminded by the records in the lady's notes!"
Su Jixiang looked at Master Mao in surprise, "So you have been thinking about this."
"Indeed." Master Mao smiled, "I don't have any other hobbies. I just like to study these things on weekdays."
No wonder they were able to come up with this thing in such a short time, it turns out they have a foundation!
Su Jixiang had to admit that Wei Ling was surrounded by a group of strong men!
"You have such a dexterous hand!" Su Jixiang exclaimed.
"Madam, he can also make muskets!" Wei Dong said with a smile, "Madam, just tell him what you want to make!"
"Do you have any apprentice?" Su Jixiang asked with a smile.
"I have selected a few like-minded people from the secret guards to be my apprentices." Master Mao said with a smile, "Madam, if you want to do something or have any ideas, just tell me!"
Su Jixiang's eyes turned slightly, steam engine!
"Come here. I'll draw a picture for you!" Su Jixiang became interested and asked Wei Dong to get pen and ink.
Su Jixiang drew a steam engine wheel set and handed it to Master Mao.
When Master Mao started watching, he had a smile on his face, but then his smile froze!
"How is it? Can you do it?" Su Jixiang asked with a smile.
Master Mao's eyes were completely attracted by the drawings, and he seemed not to have even heard Su Jixiang's questions.
It was Wei Zhong who pulled Master Mao's sleeve, and Master Mao finally woke up from his dream!
"Madam!" Master Mao looked at Su Jixiang with surprise and joy, and knelt on the ground with his legs. "Madam, you are such a genius with such wonderful ideas!"
He understood Su Jixiang's picture!
There is coal in the villa!
He had already built a coal-burning stove according to the drawing Su Jixiang had given him before!
The picture Su Jixiang gave today is an improvement on this basis.
The stove boils water, and when the water boils, it produces steam. The steam drives the impeller, and the impeller turns the gears to generate power!
If the things in the drawing that Su Jixiang gave him today could be made, Master Mao didn't know what kind of changes Daxie would face now!
His hands were shaking slightly with excitement!
"Madam, are you really confident in letting your subordinates complete this task?" Master Mao looked at Su Jixiang excitedly.
"Uncle Zhong said he could trust you, so why should I worry?" Su Jixiang said with a smile. She bent down and tried to help Master Mao up. "You stand up and talk first."
Master Mao was helped up by Su Jixiang, still very excited, "Madam, rest assured, I will not let you down!"
"Okay! Then I'll wait and see!" Su Jixiang said with a smile.
Master Mao excitedly went downstairs holding the picture.
In fact, Su Jixiang himself was a little excited.
At first, she just wanted to create a place for Wei Ling and herself to live, but now she vaguely felt that she seemed to bring an industrial revolution to Daxie...
Think about it, they now have coal and iron in their hands. If they can build a steam engine, it can be used in large-scale industrial production. They can even use the steam engine to generate electricity!
Those things that were originally out of reach for Daxie now seemed to be waving towards Su Jixiang!
Su Jixiang stayed in the villa for four days before returning to Mangcheng.
A few days later, a business in Mangcheng began to launch a new type of coal stove on a large scale!
At the beginning, everyone just saw it as a novelty, and not many people were willing to try to buy and use it.
This store organized a lucky draw. As long as you buy something in this store, you can participate directly. The prize is this new type of stove called honeycomb coal stove!
This business not only gives away stoves through raffles, but also gives away coal briquettes.
