Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Although the Institute of Science and Technology has not achieved many results so far, there are only a steam engine and cement.

But even so, these two things alone are enough to shock people all over the world!

Just when everyone was full of fighting spirit, Wei Wu spoke again.

"Your Majesty and I have an agreement that in seven days we will invite officials, merchants, and common people to witness the achievements of the Institute of Science and Technology."

After saying that, Wei Wu looked directly at the carpenter team and the blacksmith team.

"Song Zhong, Sun Chang, do you know those pleasure boats along the Qinhuai River?"

The two people who were originally thinking about showing off their skills were suddenly unable to react for a while when they heard Wei Wu say this.

After a while, the two of them said with a somewhat awkward look:

"Um, yes, I've seen it, but I haven't been there."

"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it."

Seeing their expressions, Wei Wu couldn't help laughing.

Yes, they were all craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry, and their income could not support the consumption of a pleasure boat.

"Whether you've heard it or not, whether you've seen it or not, that's not important. What's important is that you're going now."

"Go buy a boat like a pleasure boat, and then find a way to modify the stern and install a steam engine and propeller."

"In seven days, I want to see a boat that can sail freely on the Yangtze River without wind, sails, or anyone rowing."

"Just think of it as preparation for building a steamship in the future. Let's get you used to it in advance. Tell me if you can do it."

Wei Wu himself didn't realize that his words really touched the hearts of the two of them.

Ever since the steam engine ran successfully yesterday, they have been thinking about how to modify it and use it on the ship.

After Wei Wu left last night, the two guys kept the lights on and discussed until after three o'clock before going to bed.

Now that this opportunity has come to them, you can imagine how excited they are.

So as soon as Wei Wu finished speaking, the two of them almost had a light in their eyes.

"Mr. Vice President, please rest assured! We will definitely do a good job on this matter and will not let you down!"

"That's right, even if we don't eat or sleep, we will definitely rebuild the boat!"

To be honest, Wei Wu didn't expect these two guys to be so motivated.

But this is exactly what he wants to see.

"Okay, you can withdraw the money for the pleasure boat from the Science and Technology Institute's account. Go ahead!"

After getting Wei Wu's approval, the two men, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately turned around and ran out of the classroom.

Seeing that their team leader had left, the people from the carpenter and blacksmith teams also ran out.

After all these people left, Wei Wu turned his attention to the firearms group and the construction group.

Originally, he planned to deal with the firearms group first, but the problems on the firearms group's side might be more troublesome.

The construction team only needs to demonstrate the advantages of cement.

Let's just deal with the construction team first.

"Wu Qiang, you've already figured out the formula for cement. Now I'll tell you how to make concrete."

In fact, according to Wei Wu's idea, he still hopes that Wu Qiang and others can experiment with concrete themselves.

But now it is a special case and we need to hurry, so we don’t have to worry about those things.

When Wu Qiang and the other members of the construction team heard that Wei Wu had something new, they immediately became excited.

A group of people looked at Wei Wu intently, like children craving for toys.

"In fact, concrete is very simple. You just need to mix cement, sand, gravel and water to make concrete."

After explaining how concrete is made, Wei Wu also explained the mix ratio of C25.

Then he continued to tell Wu Qiang what to do.

"For this scientific and technological display, I want you to pave part of the floor of the Science and Technology Institute with concrete."

"The carpenter team has already finished the waterwheel. Since we don't have time to build the blast furnace, we'll grind the stone for you first."

When it comes to concrete, Wei Wu actually also struggled with how to demonstrate its superiority.
