Chapter 17 The Truth (1)
Chapter 17 The truth (1)
Originally, the two of them were quarreling, but instead of getting angry, they decided to fight over each other. Friends who were good friends with the two of them also joined in. I said something to him, and the scene was much better than that in the market. The excitement was no less exciting.
The young apprentice of Master Fou Song was leading the way for Master Wang, "Master Wang, please come over there."
There was a crowd of people in front, and Shen Nanyun, who was on stage, was surrounded by students asking questions. The young apprentice tried to push through the crowd to find a way out for Master Wang, but when he turned around, he saw Master Wang heading towards the back of the school.
He went to ask Master Wang and said, "Old sir, I beg you to come to Taiwan. County Lord Shen is there."
"What is County Master Shen? Isn't it the girl who gave him the blueprints that I'm asking to see you tomorrow?"
"That's wrong." The young apprentice scratched his head, "Is it okay for County Master Shen to do it?"
Master Song saw the commotion in the school, and saw that Master Wang did not go to the stage, but walked towards them. He walked quickly in front, bending slightly and said, "Master Wang."
Unexpectedly, Master Wang passed him and walked directly to Yun Qingyin. He said with a smile, "Girl, he made some modifications to the drawing I gave him, but the waterwheel he made is not suitable for lifting water." Already."
"He looked at the drawings."
Master Wang carefully took out a handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and after opening it from left to right, there was another layer on the east side.
Yun Qingyin...it doesn't have to be like this.
After wrapping it twice, the true nature of the drawing was revealed. The paper showed traces of long-term study, and some of the edges were torn and carefully pasted together with batter. Yun Qingyin stretched out her legs to pick it up.
Master Wang carefully handed it into her leg.
Yun Qingyin looked at it for a while. Her drawing was not very detailed. She only marked the dimensions of the spokes, axle, and bamboo tube. The specific fit between the various structures was not given in detail.
With such a simple drawing, Master Wang could easily produce a finished product. Even Yun Qingyin had to lament that those ancients had an innate sensitivity to craftsmanship.
"Has the direction of the bamboo tube changed?" Yun Qingyin asked.
Master Wang said, "The same bamboo tubes were used that time as before, but they were a little shorter than before. When he fixed the bamboo tubes on the round wheel, he didn't fix them as before."
"It should be because of that. The bamboo tube acts as an impeller and turns the wheel in the east direction of the water. The bamboo tube on the east side is filled with water. When the water wheel turns a certain angle, the position of the mouth of the bamboo tube must be lower than the bottom, but if If the bamboo tube is placed at a good angle, it will not tip over."
Master Wang suddenly understood, "Is that so? He has a question. If the waterwheel turns slowly, can we add more bamboo tubes?"
"Just add some large-area bamboo boards. If there are more bamboo tubes, although the water-receiving part will be more, the total water intake will also be more, and the speed of the water wheel rotation will not be increased."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong." Master Wang nodded without hesitation, "That's not what you mean."
After the questions were answered and the doubts were resolved, Master Wang was in a very good mood and said to Confucius Song, "Isn't this girl a student of our college? There is such an expert, he is actually very humble."
"No, she doesn't..." Master Song was completely confused.
"Why, if she doesn't agree, he will come over to see that girl tomorrow. Is it possible that we asked him to meet someone else?"
Master Song: "No, no..."
Damn it, who drew the drawing?
…
After Shen Nanyun explained the principle of the waterwheel to the last student, she watched him leave with a smile, looking a little tired.
"Master Song, didn't you say that you invited an old carpenter to come over? Why hasn't he seen him come?"
She actually saw Mrs. Song's young apprentice leading an old man over, but the old man did not go to the stage, but went to the back of the school. He should have benefited a lot from listening to her talk about the principles of waterwheels. I plan to walk behind and listen carefully.
Or, was her knowledge indeed very advanced for that era?
Master Song said, "Something happened in Master Wang's shop, so he went back early."
"That's it."
I don't know if it was her misunderstanding or not, but Master Song thought that her attitude was not as enthusiastic as before, "In this case, if there is nothing else, he will go back first."
"He sent it to the county lord."
Master Song walked quickly forward to guide her. After leaving the academy, Shen Nanyun realized that it was a little different from what she thought. Except for Master Song, no one came to see her off.
Is it not possible to speak well?
Shen Nanyun lowered her eyes. When Marquis Zhongyong came over and asked her if she was indeed drawing the design of the waterwheel, she had had that idea since she lived in Shenjiaba, so she heard that Shenjiaba had water. After the car appeared, she thought that Shenjiaba's carpenters had made a waterwheel based on the scrap drawings she had thrown away. Then she went to see the waterwheels, and some of the things she didn't understand were solved.
Her knowledge is not available in books, so there will be no cocoa that ancient people were not interested in.
Shen Nanyun frowned, puzzled.
Master Song watched Shen Nanyun get into the carriage and go to Dean Xu's yard.
Dean Xu walked back and forth for a while to calm down his excitement, then strategically coughed twice and said as calmly as possible, "Master Wang said that he can come over and give lectures to the students once a month."
"real?"
Master Song was shocked.
I would like to know if there are many people like Master Wang, and there are many people who want to invite him to give lectures. I heard that the adults from the Ministry of Industry paid a special visit to me and asked him to join the Ministry of Engineering, but he refused.
"Did he lie about that?"
Master Song didn't even have time to be happy about such a big thing.
Dean Xu added, "But if that girl is not here, it is not certain whether Master Wang will come, so - I know what to do."
Dean Xu patted his shoulder, carried him on his lap and walked away slowly.
…
Yun Qingyin and Shen Anqiu returned home much earlier than usual.
Mrs. Xu heard the sound, wiped her legs, and quickly came out of the kitchen, "I'm back."
Yun Qingyin was a little surprised and walked over, "Madam, why are you here?"
Xu said angrily, "I don't even remember my birthday?"
Yun Qingyin noticed Shen Anqiu's gaze and smiled at him, not expecting that at all.
Hey, is it her birthday tomorrow?
For some reason, Yun Qingyin inexplicably thought of the man in the restaurant tomorrow who accidentally ate a bowl of longevity noodles at noon. It could be considered... his birthday.
"Go east quickly, he cooked noodles for me."
Mrs. Xu didn't stay there long. She watched Yun Qingyin finish eating the noodles and leave. Yun Qingyin sent the carriage to the entrance of the village and was about to turn around when she suddenly heard the sound of splashing water by the river.
