"Oh... Qiaoyun is expected to deliver the delivery date in July. Biluo is about to winter. Let me take a look... December isn't it?"

Fo Baonu carefully studied the new calendar. As an emperor, she naturally knew the importance of the calendar, because in the traditional calendar, once she encountered a bastard emperor who changed to three or four years of year names, there would be a big problem in the future.

"What does the State of Song think of the new calendar?"

"The historians are ecstatic."

Hearing Song Beiyun's answer, Fo Baonu burst out laughing.

Yes, isn't it just that the historians are ecstatic? After this first year calendar, there is no need to use the emperor's year number to record the time. You only need to talk about how many years the New Yuan and how many years the New Yuan are BC. Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are all solved.

"Of course, not only historians, but many places need to use this. The advantage of the New Calendar is that it can give an accurate time coordinate across multiple year names. For example, the severe drought in the Song and Liao dynasties in the Sixth year of the New Calendar, and the ice disaster in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the seventh year of the New Calendar. This is also very useful for studying the climate change cycle."

“What about the shortcomings?”

Fo Baonu naturally needs pros and cons to consider the problem, because every decision she makes will be related to changes from top to bottom.

"The disadvantage is that the emperor's reign has basically been abolished, further weakening the imperial power." Song Beiyun handed it to Fo Baonu with a calendar: "The lunar calendar will still be marked. The birth of the new calendar does not mean that the lunar calendar is invalid. On the contrary, the new and old calendars will complement each other, because you have to know that the lunar calendar is also the crystallization of the wisdom of ancestors for thousands of years. The new calendar is used to record time, and the lunar calendar is an important implementation standard for agriculture."

"How do I know what number is this? What year is it?"

Song Beiyun handed a newspaper to him: "What is the Imperial Heaven Supervision for food?"

The most conspicuous part of the newspaper is the Port Daily. The second conspicuous part below is the year and month of the New Calendar, the month and day of the lunar calendar, and the solar terms. For example, now is the Xiaoman season, the Xiaoman will be written on it.

"This is good, this is good."

Fo Baonu discovered a problem, that is, he was already chasing him desperately, but every time he saw Song Beiyun, he always brought new things, whether it was astronomical calendar or political thought, he was unable to catch up with him after all, and this was the case since the day he met him.

Moreover, when she came to the port this time, Fo Baonu really opened her eyes. She thought Chang'an was new enough, but she didn't expect that Lianyungang was even newer than Chang'an, as if it was a strange world.

There are almost no wooden buildings here, small-scale buildings are all brick-concrete structures, while some large-scale buildings even use steel-concrete.

That tall and stable factory is placed in front of you, just like a house that only immortals can build in the book. After asking, I realized that it is called a steel-concrete structure. A house made of steel bars and concrete is much more time-saving and labor-saving than digging huge rocks.

Standing at a high place and looking around, the entire port was covered with thick smoke from the chimney. Although there was a pungent and choking feeling in the air, Fo Baonu knew that this represented advancedness, wealth and strength.

"Why is this new port even newer than Chang'an City?"

Song Beiyun put down the newspaper and took off his glasses: "Because Chang'an has too many memories of the past, it is everyone's concern, both for the Tang Dynasty and for his homeland. However, this port was just a poor and small fishing village, and it had nothing. I could just flatten and rebuild it, use the latest technology and the best materials, and every new city will rise from the ground in the future, and it will be the latest. When the whole of China becomes new step by step, the first new city will become an old city, and it should be demolished. Once it is demolished and then built, it will be the latest. This is the principle of endless life."

"Oh, I don't want to listen to you."

Fo Baonu waved his hand impatiently: "Tell me how much it costs here."

"Ten thousand forty million coins."

The Buddha Baonu said "Ah" and got stuck in his throat. Liao Kingdom is not so rich. Just building roads has almost emptied the Liao Kingdom's treasury. Now the roads have almost been built, but the money is still early to turn back.

"The problem is not really big." Song Beiyun smiled after seeing Fo Baonu's expression: "Your path will bring you unexpected joy."

Fo Baonu did not doubt this, because although the tolls distributed on the caravans at the same cost are very high, almost all caravans in the world lined up to pay the toll, because the highway across half of China can shorten the overall transportation route by more than 80%. The first railway is also under exploration with the joint efforts of the Design Institute of Song and Liao Dynasties. The topography and landform surveying data along the highway can greatly shorten the construction time of the railway.

When the railway is completed, although it cannot arrive day and night, according to Song Beiyun's idea, it is that the journey of two years can be shortened to two days. Moreover, the one-time cargo is hundreds of times more than the largest caravan.

This is probably something that can only happen in myths for many people, Tu Xingsun. But Song Beiyun also said that the purpose of science exists is to turn myths into reality.

"You two are so leisurely."

The voice behind her made Song Beiyun turn around and find that it was Miaoyan standing behind them. The delicate demon concubine was wearing canvas work clothes, looking completely different from her previous appearance.

"Isn't this waiting for you?"

Song Beiyun gave up a seat to Comrade Yaofei and let her sit beside her. In the eyes of Fo Baonu, she couldn't help but feel sour, but when she thought that Miaoyan's health was getting worse and worse, she felt a little uncomfortable.

The reason why Fo Baonu agreed to Miaoyan to come here to find Song Beiyun was mainly because she almost couldn't get through that winter in Liao Kingdom. Song Beiyun didn't know about this, but Fo Baonu knew that she could arrive here alive because of the ginseng worth tens of thousands of yuan.

"well?"

Fo Baonu looked at Miaoyan, but something was wrong as she looked, because her spirit was obviously much better than when she was in Liao Kingdom. Her originally pale face also became rosy. Although she was still thin, she was much fatter than before. At least she had flesh on her cheeks, and she no longer looked dry and thin.

"What are you?" Song Beiyun turned around and said, "Don't you know Miaoyan? This is your demon concubine."

"No, it's because I'm too familiar with her. I saw her in the night a few days ago and didn't pay much attention. She was almost dead when she came, and now she feels much better."

Miaoyan stepped on her feet under the table and signaled her not to say anything more. However, Song Beiyun saw the tricks between them and asked curiously: "Did she almost survive the last winter?"

Miaoyan glared at Fo Baonu fiercely, and this time Song Beiyun defended the Emperor's down: "Don't glare at him, I was originally a doctor, can you hide your physical fitness from me?"

"Yes, yes." Fo Baonu pointed to Miaoyan and said, "She was really dying at that time. I couldn't bear to eat all the tribute Liao ginseng I had to feed her."

Miaoyan did not refute the words of Fo Baonu. Instead, Song Beiyun leaned on the chair and smiled: "This topic has passed for the time being."

Fo Baonu is not a fool. She knew that Song Beiyun must have done something, but with his personality, he would definitely not say it. It must be some ulterior secrets.

Since it is a secret, it is definitely impossible to ask questions, so just don’t ask questions at all.

As for Miaoyan, she may have asked her a long time ago, but probably she didn't get a definite answer.

"Why are you all engaged in science? Do you want to divide it into the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering?" Fo Baonu changed the topic with a clue: "Isn't this fart when taking off his pants?"

Song Beiyun was tilting his head to order dishes to the restaurant's guy. After hearing Fo Baonu's words, he did not answer immediately, but ordered the dishes, and then said after the guy left: "You think they may be very similar, but they are essentially different. For example, I am very good at chemistry, but I am just a knife for chemical engineering."

Miaoyan giggled beside her, and after laughing, she added: "The problem that science actually faces is why this happens, while engineering is how to use it."

Seeing that Fo Baonu was still confused, Song Beiyun also followed Miaoyan and laughed: "Give me an example to you. You see, people who are engaged in science will only tell you that the water in this furnace can generate force to flush the lid when heated, while those who are engaged in engineering are..."

Miaoyan suddenly spoke at this moment and said in unison with Song Beiyun: "Radiation dissipation, heat dissipation!"

After saying that, the two of them slapped the table together and laughed. Seeing their synchronized appearance, Fo Baonu's expression became stiff. She couldn't hear anything funny here at all...

Finally, I said, "Because energy conversion can never be 100%, the heat released by the fuel cannot be completely transformed into the kinetic energy of steam. A large part of the energy is wasted, and this waste is inevitable. When a steam engine is running, if you do not consider scattering, it will become a steelmaking furnace. Not to mention water, even the pot will melt it. So the engineer is the person who wants to make the machine run normally on the basis that the water is heated and expanded and can generate force to flush the lid open."

"I understand this." Fo Baonu nodded, and then said unhappily: "Why can you two always understand when you two speak?"

"Because." Song Beiyun smiled: "Because she is smart."

Fo Baonu rolled his eyes at him, but said nothing. After all, since he met them, these two people have been like this. They were all fine when they were alone with them, but as long as they met, others would not be able to interrupt.

Others can't understand what they say, either. They can understand every word, but they are confused when they are connected.

What they said in the past is not counted. In just the past few days, the content that Fo Baonu couldn't understand includes Tesla, Tiger, Wujiu, aircraft carrier, cruiser, missile, satellite, wireless relay, nuclear energy, shelling and armor piercing, internal combustion engine, petroleum dynamics, aircraft, etc.

This is what Buddha Baonu remembers, and there are also a lot of things that he can't even remember. Both of them are people who can sleep in the same bed with him, but when they meet, they immediately become outsiders.

This feels quite unhappy and even a little aggrieved.

"Okay, don't feel wronged." Miaoyan pinched Fo Baonu's face: "The children are so old, they are still so childish."

"I'm fine."

"By the way, how is the engine progressing recently? I didn't pay much attention and couldn't bear to inquire." Song Beiyun asked after pouring tea for Miaoyan and Fo Baonu, "I was afraid I couldn't help but beat someone."

"It's okay, I didn't pay much attention to it. The internal combustion engine is too advanced. Many key technologies are not available at all now. It's not easy to use it if you drive it on the shelves."

Fo Baonu held his cheeks and watched them start again, but there was no way. But it was good to be like this. Who made me not be successful and understand what they understood?

As we chatted, the dishes were served. The main dishes here were all Northeastern dishes that Miaoyan liked. At a glance, you could tell that this place was set for Miaoyan. Fo Baonu felt a little uncomfortable when eating the dishes, because she didn't know if it was her, would Song Beiyun be so meticulous.

But it is not easy to ask about such things. As long as you open your mouth, it is equivalent to admitting defeat, as if you begging others to give alms. If her dignified Emperor of Liao knew that she was jealous of her bite, it would be too expensive.

"By the way." Fo Baonu took a few bites and put down his chopsticks: "How many months will the port in Liao Kingdom be completed? I need a brief day."

"Then I really don't know." Song Beiyun shook his head and said, "You Liao Kingdom is unwilling to delegate power to me. There are so many waste officials here, one prohibited one, and another policy is inconsistent. Don't count on it for three to five years."

"You are talking nonsense again! Which of you has a large seal from top to bottom of the Liao court, except for the jade seal?"

"Why don't you give me the jade seal?"

"I……"

Fo Baonu was speechless for a moment. This was the most unreasonable request she had ever heard of, but she was so righteous that Song Beiyun said.

That's the jade seal. It's really a jade seal that even an edict announces her abdication. She is always responsible for the country, right?

"Don't keep arguing." Miaoyan shook his head and said, "No one is wrong with this matter, it has nothing to do with trust. After all, there are fewer emperors like Zhao Xing in the world than time travelers. He is completely irresponsible and has no sense of responsibility."

Fo Baonu nodded repeatedly: "That's it."

But Song Beiyun smiled and said, "I want me to tell you that Zhao Xing is the real hero of the generation, and Anu is one level worse than him."

"It's already too much for you to compare me with Zhao Xing. I'm worse than him... Where am I worse than the emperor who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun?"
