Chapter 279: Yan's shock, the rapidly advancing technological civilization!

On the Dragon Throne.

Yan listened to the narration of the people from the Research Institute.

He lowered his head and examined this giant pot.

He saw the people from the Research Institute lighting a fire underneath it to heat it, and the water inside the giant pot……

Soon boiled as well.

"Bang bang bang……"

The pot lid was pushed up by the steaming water vapor, continuously jumping upward.

And the other side of the pot lid……

Was connected to a reciprocating mechanical structure.

It used the lever principle, making the force generated by the mechanical movement of the pot lid……

Continuously amplified.

These theories all originated from "Physics" in the three volumes of the Heavenly Book.

After decades of study.

The Great Yan Research Institute had successively applied the theories within it into practice.

And on the other side of the giant pot's conveyor belt.

A reciprocating machine……

Was moving up and down, pushing a wooden wheel to rotate continuously.

When Yan saw this, his eyes went straight instantly.

His breathing couldn't help but become rapid.

Such an invention……

It could be said to be the most epoch-making invention in these past decades!

Just as the people from the Research Institute said.

Once it could be optimized again, the power it provided……

Would allow all walks of life in the Great Yan Kingdom to break through geographical limitations, saving a large amount of human and material resources.

Thinking of this.

Yan couldn't help but beam with joy.

He nodded with satisfaction and said: "The Research Institute has been able to develop such a strange object, I have a heavy reward!"

Subsequently.

He continued: "However, this object is still too rough and needs to be perfected. You should select people with outstanding research capabilities within the Research Institute to form a power research group, specifically responsible for the improvement of the steam engine."

"Yes!"

The people from the Research Institute responded in a deep voice.

Obviously.

They also understood very well that this first-generation version of the steam engine could not be put into use at all.

It could currently only manage to push a wooden wheel forward.

In terms of power structure and mechanical transmission devices……

There was still huge room for improvement.

And above the Imperial Palace.

Qin Mu looked at the giant pot in the main hall.

He couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect the steam engine to be researched so quickly……"

Before crossing over.

Civilization on Earth had been extremely ignorant for thousands of years.

And after the appearance of the steam engine.

Modern civilization finally officially began.

It could be said……

The power reform of the steam engine laid the tone for the rapid development of modern civilization.

"Next, you will understand how terrifying the steam engine is."

Qin Mu looked at the excited Yan, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Although Yan understood the function of the steam engine.

He absolutely could not have imagined……

That the steam engine would cause an epoch-making upheaval!

……

63rd Year of the Great Yan Calendar.

End of the year.

With the passage of time.

In the Great Yan Research Institute.

After half a year of improvement, the fourth-generation version of the steam engine……

Finally came into being!

This time, the steam engine was no longer huge in size.

But its structure was extremely precise.

Various complex mechanical parts were all loaded together.

Through a simple reciprocating mechanical lever, it could exert the power of steam……

To the maximum.

At the same time.

In terms of fuel.

After several improvements, coal that burned long enough replaced the previous firewood!

As long as someone continuously added water and coal.

It could make the steam engine run without stopping forever!

After Yan learned of this news.

He rushed to the Great Yan Research Institute for the first time.

"Your Majesty, after our improvement this time, the steam engine can push the wooden wheel to a rotation speed of 7,000 revolutions per hour!"

The people from the Research Institute began to experiment personally.

Demonstrating the powerful power of the fourth-generation steam engine.

Yan looked at the wooden wheel rolling without human power……

His expression became increasingly excited.

"Pass down the order, put this version of the steam engine into application as soon as possible, and develop…… a carriage that can travel without horse power!"

The current Great Yan Kingdom.

In terms of transportation, they all used carriages.

But horses……

After all, have endurance and will get tired. ===== CHAPTER 281 =====
