Cub Nursery

Chapter 292

"Don't need a car that can only run on rails like a train?" Jia Qiugu was a little puzzled.

He has seen trains many times, and even sat on a train. He even watched the railway outside the outer city wall being built. Become a small train that can run smoothly.

It's just that cars that are different from trains, he can't think of them at all.

Just like before the train appeared, he couldn't imagine it at all. How could he run without a cart pulled by horses?That is too unbelievable, whimsical!

The little prince thought thoughtfully: "Master Yan and the cubs must have made new breakthroughs, right?"

Whether it's trains, guns and ammunition, or even the steelmaking furnace standing on the side of the river today, the steel ingots produced in it are better than the steel made by blacksmiths. The palace has been studying these skills and technologies, but no progress.

The most important steam engine on the train is no longer a secret. The students in the first and second schools of the Conservation School already know the principle of the steam engine.

It's just that if you know it, you know it. If you really want to make it, no one can do it except Yan Xun's workshop.

"It must be." Jia Qiugu suddenly felt relieved.

The cubs can always create strange mechanisms and come up with unimaginable methods. There are some truths that everyone can see and know, but in the hands of the cubs, they can become trains and trains. into steel, into bright glass.

As long as it is them, it seems that it is not uncommon to create anything.

"It's similar to the demon lamp." Brother Dan said proudly, "this kind of small car is called a demon car, and there are demon lamps installed in it, so it can run as usual even at night. When more demon lamps are made in the future, Demon lights will be installed on all cement roads, and they can be as bright as day at night. The brothers are still debugging the mechanism, and it will definitely be successful in a short time..."

Brother Dan's face was full of pride and pride.

The demon car is more complicated than what Brother Dan said. There are layers of organs inside, and the electricity that the cubs have been researching, and have not even studied thoroughly. Many of the truths are not very clear to Brother Dan, but He is not jealous of his brothers.

Because there is never any need to fight for those things, when my younger brother goes to school in the future, he will naturally know these mechanisms and these principles.

"A family like you..." The little prince said enviously, "I'm afraid this is the only family in this world."

"That's right." Brother Dan nodded in agreement, "My brothers also said that my father is unique. Without my father, they would not be where they are today. I also think that if my father is like other people , I always have to be biased, and I will definitely fight for it. If my father is like old man Shen...it's too scary to think about it!"

Brother Dan simply didn't dare to think about it.

In the house, only Jia Qiugu, Brother Dan and Cub Huashu were talking with the little prince, while Yan Xun went to erect the high wall, guarding the man outside, so the workshop inside could not be seen from the outside at all.

The two extremely heavy iron doors at the entrance of the workshop slowly opened, Yan Xun and Jing Fengye stepped in quickly, and the iron doors slowly closed again.

In the huge flat yard, the cubs are busy running around.

"My lord!" The Shaking Mountain cub ran over, wiped the sweat off his face, "The front and rear wheels of the monster car are not easy to coordinate, we discussed it, we want to drive only the rear wheels, and the front wheels control the direction. How about this?"

"You can try it." Yan Xun said, "Have most of the organs been completed?"

"En." The black and white cub replied, "The mechanism has been deployed, and the best steel is used. In some places, wood, gold, silver, and glass are used..."

"Let me take a look..." Seeing the monster car stop crookedly, Yan Xun hurried forward.

At this time, the monster car is only a few levels in the innermost part, and the outer shell has not been installed. It looks very strange, as if it is a lump of iron, but it can already run without running on the rails.

Cub Claw jumped out of the monster car, opened the mechanism neatly, took out a part, and cut off a part of the iron block, "It's not good here, it's too difficult to run, and it wears a lot, so it should work." gone."

"Here, here, and here, adjust it." Yan Xun looked around and said, "When I designed the blueprints, it was not as good as the practice. If this is the case, it should be almost the same. Let me try..."

Yan Xun proposed this possibility when it was discovered that the magnetic leaf grass fruit can produce electricity, and the beauty lizard can store electricity, turning from a monster into a stone-like existence.

Gradually accumulating mermaids can store and discharge electricity, and as long as there is electricity, the coil in the magnetic leaf grass fruit will rotate. If it is combined with a mechanism, then the wheels can be rotated to make the car run.

Just want to turn the idea into reality, the first thing is to design the drawings.

The cubs have already built the train, and the design of the blueprints went smoothly, but they still encountered many difficulties during the actual experiment.

The sharp claw cub closed the mechanism, hesitated and said: "My lord, I don't know if the demon car will work, how about I try again?"

"It's the same when I come here." Yan Xun said, "Master Jing is also here."

As he said that, Yan Xun specially rolled up his sleeves and squeezed the muscles on his arms.

When the egg was red, Yan Xun himself always vomited blood, making a lot of noise, but in essence he is better than before, even now he is much better than before.

The cubs almost became used to worrying about Yan Xun, so they didn't speak at this time.

Yan Xun simply picked up the claw cub, put him outside, and got in by himself, "I was by your side when designing the blueprints, when making parts, and even more when assembling. I know this car as well as you do." Monster car."

Saying that, Yan Xun activated the mechanism.

The weird iron lump suddenly ran forward, then turned suddenly, the wheels roared and left deep marks on the concrete floor, and then rushed to the front quickly.

"My lord!" Jing Fengye ran behind.

"It's okay!" Yan Xun shouted, "This is much better than monsters."

The mechanism at hand was constantly adjusted, and the demon car stopped abruptly beside Jing Fengye.

Yan Xun breathed a sigh of relief, got out of the demon carriage and said: "The adjustment should be similar, the turning and braking mechanisms are still not sensitive enough. The demon carriage is not like a carriage. After all, a horse is a living being. Knowing not to step on the deep pit, but the monster car is different, this is the iron lump we made, we must completely control it. This is different from the train, the train is smooth, almost no ups and downs, and the monster car In addition to the cement road, there may be other uneven dirt roads on the road the car needs to run..."

"Well, adjust it again." The claw cub hurried to disassemble the parts.

Qin Shishi rode an iron donkey all the way up the Danxin Bridge and went straight to the Conservation Hall to build a concrete building.

Park the donkey in the shed and put it together with the big donkeys of Yan Xun and Jing Fengye. Qin Shishi jumped over the little donkeys of the cubs, and then the miniature donkeys of Baobao and Brother Dan, and ran to the concrete. In front of the glass door upstairs, knock gently.

The cubs in the house had just returned from the demon car, and they were all sitting on the kang drinking tea.

Yan Xun brought over the sliced ​​pork head meat that was marinated yesterday, and said to the cubs, "Taste the saltiness. There are also stewed big bones, drink more soup later."

"Father, the Fourteenth Prince is here." Bao Bao finished speaking to Yan Xun, picked up a piece of meat, stood up, walked to Bei Qi, and put it on his plate, "Master, try it."

"Master Jing, go and open the door." Yan Xun wiped his hands and climbed onto the kang, pushing Jing Fengye.

Jing Fengye hurriedly got up and went to open the door neatly.

"Master Peking University is going back to Dali Temple today?" Yan Xun helped Bei Qi serve the porridge, and the baby hurried over to carry the bowl, and rushed to deliver it to Bei Qi.

"Yes, thank you, Lord Yan." Bei Qi said solemnly.

These days he has been recuperating in the nursery hall. At the beginning, he couldn't see anyone except Huashu's cub. He couldn't see the baby and others until he was sure that his ears were completely connected to his body.

To this day, his ear is indistinguishable from the other ear except for the small stitch-like scar on the surface.

It was an unprecedented thing that the ear that fell off could still be connected, but Bei Qi had experienced it for real. He was grateful to Yan Xun from the bottom of his heart, to the cubs, and even more grateful to his apprentice, the baby.

If it weren't for them, his ear would definitely not be able to connect, and even if he could survive, he might not have the chance to occupy the position of Dali Siqing in the future.

"Little egg, are you ready for the ointment? Turn around and remind Peking University, rub it three times a day, and the scar will disappear soon." Yan Xun said to the baby.

"I know." The baby nodded quickly.

Qin Shishi came in with Jing Fengye, and saw that everyone in the room was happy and happy, and he also caught a glimpse of the extra bowls and chopsticks on the dining table.

"Come here? Let's eat together." Yan Xun pointed to the extra bowl and chopsticks and said, "Here..."

"Okay." Qin Shishi hurriedly followed onto the kang.

After eating, Qin Shishi and the cubs helped clean up the table and served refreshments together.

Qin Shishi sat cross-legged on the soft cushion, reaching out to help the snake cub organize its clothes.

"Prince Fourteen, is there something wrong with you coming back?" The snake-bodied cub flicked the tip of its tail, swam to the side of the cushion and crossed its body, blinking its big eyes and looking at Qin Shisi, "Is there something wrong in the palace?"

"It's not in the palace, it's about the court." Qin Shishi said a little disappointed, "It's all there."

"Did something really happen?" The snake cub was a little surprised, "Isn't there nothing wrong these few days?"

"Because of the workshops donated by Lord Yan..." Qin Shishi said in a deep voice, "I want all the workshops of my father, and so do His Royal Highness, Second Brother, Fourth Brother, and Seventh Brother. It was a quarrel, the Six Ministries, the Cabinet, the Imperial Academy..."

Ever since Yan Xun entered the palace and donated these workshops for Shen Qianyin, the emperor was caught in a dilemma.

Every workshop can make money, and the ability to make money is obvious to all. Otherwise, Yan Xun would not be targeted by so many people, and almost everyone would be an enemy.

The gun and ammunition workshop must be held in his own hands, and because the gunpowder was given by Yan Xun, the workshop was in no danger, so the emperor directly set up a workshop in the palace, and all the arrangements were made by his confidants.Although the workshops for raising pigs and chickens were not comparable to the workshops for guns and ammunition, the amount of money in and out every day was astonishing, and the emperor did not want to let it go.

The chickens in the workshop are cleaner, grow faster, and lay more eggs. Now they are not only sold very well in the shopping malls, but many of them are used for canned meat.

And the technology is ready-made, as long as you arrange your own people in, you don't have to worry about money at all.

The emperor didn't want to let go, but he couldn't fully hold it in his own hands, so he wanted to let Prince Qin Yi intervene.

"Second brother and fourth brother almost got into a fight, and they wanted to intervene. Seventh brother didn't do it at first, but then he was beaten by second and fourth brothers for some reason." Qin Shishi said with a bad face, "Shangshu of the Ministry of Households wants to invite Mr. Zhou is going to court, and Prime Minister Zuo is also coming to invite..."

Because of Yan Xun's dedicated workshop, almost everyone did not stand by.

This is different from the money and food donated. No matter how much food and money there is, the amount is dead. If others want to reach out, they will always leave traces. The workshop donated by Yan Xun is a way to make money. There is money in the account, even if you don't need to use your hands and feet, you can learn these ways to make money.

No one can take such golden pastries seriously.

"Father asked me to ask Mr. Yan what to do about this matter." Qin Shishi wondered, "If this continues, it will definitely not be clear in three to five months."

Not only that, Qin Shisi watched the fight between the second prince and the fourth prince in the palace. Although he was not afraid, he was still very sad.

They are all brothers, and they should help each other like brothers and sisters, instead of fighting each other.

For the sake of fame and profit, it seems that everything has become unimportant.

Qin Shishi used to think the same way. To be a king or lose a bandit, he can only survive if he pulls down his brothers. Otherwise, the only thing waiting for him is the knife stabbed by his brother, which will make him bleed and kill him.

"The big monster car is so complicated, I can't understand it." Brother Dan ran in carrying a small iron box, climbed up the rope ladder to the kang, and then ran to Qin Shishi and said, "Fourteen Take a look, this is the little demon car that my brothers built for me, I can't be a human yet, but it runs fast."

As he said that, Brother Dan put away the car that was bigger than his palm on his shoulders, and smiled at Qin Shishi, "There is a body of a beauty lizard growing in it, brothers finally found such a small one. , are you afraid?"

Monster corpses, only big monsters will leave corpses, and many ordinary monsters will only leave a puddle of thick water and disappear.

"Not afraid." Qin Shishi said, "There is nothing to be afraid of."

He had seen the envoys of the demon country, and Du Meiqi, the baron of the demon country, that was a great monster, but now it was just a corpse, nothing at all.

"I'll take it apart for you to take a look." Brother Dan said, grabbed the little monster car and turned it around, opened an iron plate at the bottom, revealing the growing beauty lizard inside, "Don't be afraid, it's different from the corpse of a monster. Gradually The beauty lizard is very special, it can absorb and assimilate and turn into other things, especially absorb electricity. If the ordinary beauty lizard dies without absorbing and assimilating, it will also turn into thick water and disappear.”

What Brother Dan said was very convoluted, but Qin Shishi understood.

The growing beauty lizard in the iron box is the corpse of a monster, but it has been assimilated by electricity and turned into another existence.

"Growing beauty lizards are very cruel, not only eating people, but also turning into people." Brother Dan put the iron plate on, walked around the little demon car and said, "You didn't see it if you didn't go to the outer city wall. Seeing so many growing beauty lizards, even my father was almost at a loss what to do."

Yan Xun just entered the door and heard this sentence, he smiled and said: "That's not true."

The little demon car is different from the big demon car that is still being debugged in the workshop. The layers of organs inside have been wrapped with thin iron sheets, and there is a cover similar to a carriage on the outside. There are a total of four doors, all inlaid with Transparent glass, and a carved wood seat inside, just enough for Brother Dan to get in and sit.

Brother Dan opened the mechanism of the little demon car, and said old-fashionedly: "I can get into the little demon car and sit in the little demon car after the brothers have done their research."

Iron Knot jumped out with a 'woo', hit the wall with a 'bang', retreated, and ran back quickly.

"Awesome!" Qin Shishi was shocked, "I can run in front of me."

"Of course, the big monster car is more powerful and has more mechanisms inside. It runs faster than a horse-drawn carriage, especially on cement roads!" Brother Egg proudly said, "When the big monster car is ready, you can I see."

"I'll go to court tomorrow." Yan Xun helped Brother Dan hold down the little demon car, shut down the mechanism, and said to Qin Shishi.

"Thank you, Lord Yan." Qin Shishi hastily cupped his hands.

Yan Xun shook his head lightly.

At the beginning, it was because of Shen Qianyin that he donated so many workshops, but Yan Xun didn't expect the scene now.

He and the cubs have accumulated wealth little by little with the help of these seemingly inconspicuous workshops at the beginning, and now they have climbed to the top and grown into giants.

Those workshops are different from all the workshops in Daqin, all of them are unique to you, whether it is the recipes used, the wages and benefits issued, or even the training of the various managers, all are unprecedented.

Others only know that Yan Xun is rich, but only Yan Xun knows how much gold and silver his workshop can earn every day.

Those dried tofu and tofu can be bought for a few pennies. They seem inconspicuous, but when every household buys them, and when teahouses and taverns need to purchase them every day, these inconspicuous things will accumulate over time and become an extremely huge number.

Yan Xun himself knows best what is under his hands.

Yan Xun expected the quarrel in the court, but what he didn't expect was that the emperor would not let go of any workshop, nor did he expect the second, fourth and seventh princes to intervene.

Lying on the kang at night, Yan Xun looked up at the roof and murmured: "Sure enough, interests are the most touching since ancient times."

"No, no amount of money can compare to an adult." Jing Fengye said, "No amount of money and benefits can compare to an adult alone."

Yan Xun turned over and rolled to Jing Fengye's side, lying on his side, pillowing his arm, "Master Jing, why do you think so? Everything in this world can be solved with money. It's not enough money."

"That's someone else." Jing Fengye stretched out his hand to help Yan Xun pull up the quilt, and said softly, "All I need is an adult. Money is just something outside of the body, it's nothing."

He doesn't need to eat delicacies from mountains and seas, nor does he need to wear gold and silver. When he first came to Daqin, he only had a piece of animal skin on his body, but this animal skin was given by Yang Shuning because he didn't like him having no clothes.

He saw Yan Xun for the first time in Honglu Temple, and that was enough to overcome everything.

"Master Jing, you can't do this. If we don't get money, what should we eat and wear now? Can we still drink blood?" Yan Xun stretched out his hand to pull Jing Fengye's ears, and said with a smile, "Look at the clothes in my room, The shoes, as well as the concrete buildings today, are not all money."

"It's different, we made it ourselves." Jing Fengye emphasized, "I didn't buy it."

"If I didn't lead you to make soap in the first place, if we could have money and buy so much food, we could change from clay pots to iron pots?" Yan Xun suddenly lowered his voice and only spoke in a breathy voice. , "Master Jing is right, what you get in exchange for your own ability, whether it's money or anything else, is yours, and it's not really exciting."

Everything was accumulated bit by bit by Yan Xun and the cubs. Whether it was when he walked out of Honglu Temple to build a bridge, went to the sea to build the Great Wall, or even went to a border town to build a workshop, it was all built by the cubs themselves. Miracles are all achieved by them step by step.

That's different.

Such a step-by-step approach, neither Jing Fengye nor the cubs will be moved by interests.

So no matter how many people use what methods to lure the cubs, it will not be effective at all, because the cubs are different from others, and the path they walk is unique.

"Master Jing can see clearly." Yan Xun stretched out his hand to touch Jing Fengye's face, and traced the traces of dragon scales lightly with his fingers. Looking at it every day, he was already familiar with what the traces of dragon scales on Jing Fengye's body looked like. can no longer be familiar with.

"My lord asked on purpose." Jing Fengye leaned towards Yan Xun, "My lord."

In such a quiet and dark night, the oil lamps in the house have long been blown out, and the glass windows are covered by two layers of thick curtains, so that no matter how bright the moonlight outside is, it cannot shine inside. There are only two people on the kang, and Jing Feng night Very simply lifted the quilt and came over.

He could clearly see Yan Xun's appearance, Yan Xun would always narrow his eyes slightly in the dark, and there was nothing in his pupils.

There is a feeling that Yan Xun only belongs to him at this moment.

"Are you going to sleep tonight?" Yan Xun asked.

"Your Excellency can sleep in the carriage tomorrow, and wake up a little later in the morning." Jing Feng said at night, "I will do everything else."

"I also told the cubs that going to bed early and getting up early is good for your health. Didn't Mr. Huo say the same thing?" Yan Xun muttered softly, "I see that Mr. Jing is very courageous. He just doesn't stop talking to me, but he dares to If you don't listen to Mr. Huo, I will definitely complain to Mr. Huo next time."

"My lord is in such good health, I'm afraid I won't have to see Mr. Huo for a while."

"That's true."

The moon rises and the moon sets, and the sky appears pale.

Yan Xun got up in a daze, put on his clothes, ate some food, got into the carriage and continued to sleep.

The horseshoe stepped on the concrete floor crisply, and crossed the Danxin Bridge straightly.

"The river seems to flow a little fast today." Jing Fengye said softly, "I don't know why."

Yan Xun was in a daze, and muttered: "This old Shen family is really nothing. I heard that old man Shen, old lady Shen and Shen Shulang are not in the same prison. Old man Shen asked the jailer to send a message to ask Shen Shulang to go over and kowtow to him, and also kowtow to Shen Qianyin .Master Jing, there are really people in this world who will never repent... You say I am tossing and tossing, what is it for..."
