Chapter 183 Making trouble.
Chapter 183 Making trouble.
Ye Kun cried out in pain and begged for mercy:
"Brother, you know that the last time I caused trouble in Jingzhou, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep for half a month after I came back. I was afraid that Lord Wei would raise an army to attack me. Tell me, do I dare to go to Jingzhou now?"
Wei Caiqin covered her mouth and laughed, "Weren't you very brave when you were causing trouble in Jingzhou?"
"At that time, I was afraid that you would look down on me, so I acted impulsively. Now that I think about it, I am really sorry to Master Wei. Also, I am afraid that what happened last time also implicated you. The more I think about it, the more I regret it."
Ye Kun was insincere, trying to please but showing weakness.
"It's good that you know." Wei Caiqin rolled her eyes:
"My father wanted to lock me up and not let me go out for a year. Fortunately, I was thick-skinned and pestered my father every day, so he let me out of the prison."
Ye Kun bowed deeply: "Ye Kun thanks you again for saving my life, and for the crime I implicated you in."
"Why should we be so polite?"
Wei Caiqin blushed and slapped Ye Kun lightly.
Ye Kun smiled and held Wei Caiqin's hand: "Is Lord Wei very angry?"
Wei Caiqin chuckled, then put on a stern face and imitated her father's tone:
"My father said, Ye Kun, the little thief, how dare you be so rude. Come on, send 200,000 troops immediately to capture Dongba County and capture Ye Kun and spank him!"
Ye Kun chuckled: "If you want to spank me, why do you need an army of 200,000? Miss Third can come alone and capture me alive, and then spank as many people as she wants."
Wei Caiqin also smiled: "My father was indeed very angry, but he also said that if I had a son, I would want him to be like Ye Dalang. This sentence seemed to be a compliment to you."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Then go back and tell your father that I said that a father should be like Lord Wei!"
Wei Caiqin sneered: "You want to recognize your father, but my father may not agree."
"Then I'll recognize you as my father-in-law."
Ye Kun put his arms around Wei Caiqin's waist and held her in his arms.
Wei Caiqin was no longer reserved and gave Ye Kun a long and passionate kiss.
After a while, Wei Caiqin gently pushed Ye Kun away and sighed:
"Brother Ye, although my father is no longer angry, you may not be able to go to Jingzhou to propose marriage in the near future. You have to wait a little longer."
Ye Kun held Wei Caiqin's face and said, "Qin'er, I can wait until my territory is bigger. Then I can propose marriage, and your father will agree."
"How long will it take to wait?"
“Until this time next year at the latest.”
"Okay, I'll go back and test my father's opinion."
Wei Caiqin was still playful and took Ye Kun's hand: "Did you make anything fun for me this time when you came back?"
"Am I not fun? These few days, I am yours, you can have fun with me however you want."
"Go, that's not proper."
Wei Caiqin couldn't help but smile and buried her head in Ye Kun's arms: "Father only gave me five days. The journey back and forth will delay me for three days. I have to go back tomorrow. Brother Ye, I only have one day to accompany you."
"One day is enough to do a lot of things."
Ye Kun took Wei Caiqin's hand and said, "I'll take you to visit my hydraulic workshop. Go back and ask Lord Wei if he needs such hydraulic equipment. I can help design and install it."
Wei Caiqin nodded and went to see the hydraulic workshop with Ye Kun.
The scale of the workshop has expanded a lot. There are ten hydraulic saws, two of which can cut large materials.
Wei Caiqin was amazed when she saw the magical sawing machine and she insisted on trying it herself.
"This thing is hard on your hands. Be careful. You might end up cutting off your fingers."
Ye Kun was worried and taught him step by step.
Hydraulic saws have a slow rotation speed, so it is unlikely to cut off a finger, but it is easy to get injured.
Wei Caiqin played with it for a while and said with a smile, "I guess my father doesn't like this kind of carpenter's stuff. Is there anything else?"
"Yes, come and see the blacksmith shop."
Ye Kun nodded and took Wei Caiqin to the blacksmith workshop.
A hydraulic hammer is also installed here, which greatly saves the labor of manual forging.
In the past, blacksmithing would require the young apprentice to swing the hammer, eighty times, eighty times.
Now I can forge day and night without worrying about my little apprentice’s physical strength.
The hydraulic hammer did not improve efficiency much, but it saved manpower and could be operated in two shifts.
Ye Kun also designed a hydraulic roller press, which is currently being debugged.
Wei Caiqin was impressed and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, what on earth is in your head that you can make such strange things?"
"When you mention it, I remember another strange thing."
Ye Kun smiled, took Wei Caiqin back to the city and went to Lao He's laboratory.
Ye Kun and Lao He have a special laboratory, a large courtyard with five entrances, which is equipped with various experimental equipment.
When Ye Kun arrived, Lao He was tinkering with the unicycle and performing various performance tests.
Historians have verified that the wooden ox and flowing horse invented by Zhuge Liang was a wheelbarrow. Because the roads around Bashu and Yizhou were all mountainous, a wheelbarrow was more convenient for transporting food and grass.
However, Ye Kun felt that operating a unicycle required a certain level of technical skill and was not very interested in it. He just drew a blueprint and asked Lao He to make a few to try.
Ye Kun felt that a flatbed cart with two parallel wheels was more convenient than a push cart.
It is laborious to push a cart, but easy to pull one.
Seeing the unicycle, Wei Caiqin asked, "Brother Ye, is this the strange thing you mentioned?"
"How can it be so simple?"
Ye Kun shook his head and took Wei Caiqin to the second courtyard and entered another laboratory.
This is the latest electrical laboratory opened by Ye Kun.
Because this time, we got a lot of high-quality natural magnets from Jingzhou, which can be used to make magneto generators.
The generator made now is useless.
The only purpose is to provide science popularization and experiments to Lao He and his daughter, and to broaden the vision and thinking of the craftsmen.
The metal wires of the generator can be solved with silver wire.
Ye Kun selected the polished circular magnet, and then used silver wire to assemble a simplest power generation equipment, and derived two wire ends, and that was it.
This thing can only generate a weak electric current, it cannot store it, and there is no light bulb to light up.
Wei Caiqin was confused: "What is this?"
"This thing is called Turtle Jump. You will know if you touch it with your hand." Ye Kun said seriously and let Wei Caiqin touch the thread end.
Wei Caiqin didn't know it was a trick, so she reached out and touched it.
"oops!"
The moment she was hit by the electric current, Wei Caiqin jumped up: "What's going on with this thing? It feels like a mosquito bite!"
Ye Kun smiled evilly: "That's why it's called Turtle Jump. If you touch it with your hand, it will jump up."
"Turtle jumps..."
Wei Caiqin reacted and punched him with her little pink fist: "Brother Ye, you called me a cuckold, I won't let you off today."
"No, no, just a joke..."
Ye Kun hurriedly begged for mercy, and explained with a smile: "The thing that hit your hand just now is invisible and intangible. It is called electricity, which is the same as the thunder and lightning in the sky. I have just started to study it, and I can make something fun for you in the future."
Wei Caiqin touched it again, and then jumped up and yelled, "What a weird thing! Why can't I touch it again?"
"Don't be afraid, it only hurts a little."
Ye Kun pointed at the jumping toad and said, "Wait for me to use a wooden box to fix this thing, and then you can take it home to play with it. In the future, if the maids are disobedient, use this to discipline them and make them jump every day."
In fact, because the magnetism of natural magnets is not strong enough, the current of this thing is very weak, even weaker than the ignition current of a disposable lighter.
The maids laughed to death when they were punished with this.
Wei Caiqin squinted and smiled: "I want to keep it and deal with you later."
By now, it's time to have dinner.
He Tiantian brought the cook to cook a few dishes and prepare some drinks.
Ye Kun was here, bringing Wei Caiqin and accompanying Old He and his daughter to have dinner together.
Lao He drank a glass of wine and suddenly said:
"By the way, Lord Ye, the kettles you ordered have all been delivered. I wonder what they are used for?"
He Tiantian turned around and took out two bronze kettles.
One is a long-spouted pot with only a small hole on the spout.
The other is a cylindrical pot with a tight lid.
"To teach you things." Ye Kun added a little water to the kettle and put it on the stove to boil.
Lao He was puzzled: "What can a kettle do?"
"There is a thing called a steam engine. If we can make it, it will change the world."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "I am using these two kettles to demonstrate to you the basic principles of steam power."
Lao He frowned: "How can steam be used for power?"
Wei Caiqin smiled and said, "Brother Ye, do you want to bring the kettle to the battlefield and scald the enemy to death with steam?"
