  Chapter 1173 Searching for new material

   At 6:00 p.m. on December 18, the sixth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao finally rushed back to the lord's hut, and found Kong Ming, who was working hard in an office on the third floor of the lord's hut.

  Kong Ming saw Qu Mao appearing in the office, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "My lord, you are finally back, and you have been away for more than a month this time."

   Qu Mao sighed helplessly, and said: "Our territory is too large, and we have already occupied half of the entire territory of the Eastern Continent.

  I just went around the Eastern Peninsula Battlefield in the East Continental Bay. When I came back, I went to the Kingdom Battlefield, and then passed through Midway Twin Islands, Outlying Island Fukumura Shipyard and Power Research Institute. It took more than a month.

  By the way, Kong Ming, you didn’t have dinner, did you?

  We went to the restaurant on the first floor to have dinner. By the way, we called Xinping. The steam power research project of the Power Research Institute is short of sealing materials. I am going to ask Xinping to help find it. "

Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan, stood up and walked downstairs with Qu Mao, and asked with a smile: "My lord, the two interns at the Institute of Power are not bad, right? The acting director of the Institute of Power and his subordinates Mentioned several times, it seems that they have already made a prototype of the steam engine.

  However, the subordinates have always fulfilled their duties, so they dealt with administrative affairs in the lord's hut, and insisted on not going back to the Outlying Island Power Research Institute to see the prototype. "

   Qu Mao smiled and said: "It's indeed done, I just came back after watching it.

  As for you, wait a little longer. I just gave them some pointers on the modification of the prototype. Even if the airtight material is not found, I believe they will optimize the prototype again.

  Call Xinping over for me, let's chat while having dinner. "

  Kong Ming took out the magic communication crystal, dialed Xinping's magic communication crystal, and asked, "My lord, judging by your posture, you should have some clues."

Qu Mao sighed, and said: "I haven't written the horoscope yet. I have made some improvements and pointers to their prototype water circulation system. Although it can't completely solve the problem of water vapor escaping, it can at least ensure that a pot of water can last longer.

  Although I know the name of the raw material of the airtight material, I don’t know if the raw material can be found in this world. Even if the raw material is found, I don’t know how to extract the airtight material from the raw material.

  As for the processing and production of refined airtight materials, I am even less clear about the specific process.

  To be honest, what kind of raw material looks like, and there is another kind that I can't tell at all. "

  After Kong Ming contacted Xinping, he accompanied Qu Mao to the restaurant on the first floor. The maids in the lord's cabin didn't even serve tea, so Xinping rushed over.

  Chong Qumao hastily saluted, then asked: "Sir, do you have something to do with your subordinates?"

   Qu Maodao: "Yes, I want to use the power of the Ministry of Intelligence and the propaganda effect of "Yi Island Weekly" to find two new materials.

One is the rubber tree that grows in the tropics. After cutting the bark of this tree, a white liquid will flow out. After processing, this white liquid can be made into a rubber material with good airtightness. But what does this rubber tree look like? I have no idea.

   Another raw material is a liquid mineral, which is in the form of black oil and can be ignited. Its combustion temperature is not lower than the temperature produced by the combustion of coal ore. This liquid mineral is called petroleum.

  The difficulty is that I don't know what the rubber tree looks like, nor do I know the process of extracting rubber.

   Most of the oil is buried deep underground, and only a small amount of it will spill out of the ground.

   But no matter how difficult it is, I still want to find these two raw materials first. After finding the raw materials, we will slowly explore the process of refining the raw materials into rubber. "

  Xinping glanced at Qu Mao and asked, "Sir, these two raw materials, as well as rubber, are very important to our territory?"

   Qu Mao nodded and said: "Well, the steam engine power research project carried out by the Island Power Research Institute is currently stuck on the key material of rubber.

   After the development of steam-powered engines, we can research iron-clad ships, steel cars and even steel trains to speed up our transportation. "

  Xinping said: "My lord, since it is so important, the subordinates are duty bound.

what do you mean…"

   Qu Mao said: "First, with the help of the Ministry of Intelligence's dispatched intelligence personnel network and the carrier pigeon network, we will conduct a dragnet search in the territory we control, and even if it is not in the territory we control, we must spread personnel to search.

  Second, issue a reward on "Island of Yi Weekly" and mobilize all literate residents in the Holy Land of Yigong Territory and independent territories to find these two kinds of raw materials. "

  Xinping nodded and said, "Yes, my lord. Although you didn't explain these two new materials clearly, you basically explained the place of origin of the rubber tree and the shape of the oil.

  The subordinates think it will be difficult, but they can always find it. "

  Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "Master Xinping, let's release the mission first.

  Two more channels to search are better than no channels to search. In fact, I am also a little impatient now. I especially want to go back to the Outlying Island Power Research Institute to see the steam engine prototype made by Bi Sheng and Yan Qisheng. "

   Qu Mao glared at Kong Ming, and said: "Kong Ming, I told you to wait a few more days, at least until the two of them have improved the water circulation system, and then you can go back and have a look.

  Xinping, since you have come, today is December 18, Tianxuan 6th year, I would like to ask how the Tianxuan 6th year-end summary conference and Tianxuan 7th spring enrollment are arranged. "

   Kong Ming said: "My lord, Su Yan will return to the Holy Land ahead of schedule on the 25th to deal with the year-end summary meeting, and my subordinates are currently giving priority to follow up the enrollment in the spring of the seventh year of Tianxuan.

  Including Firearms University, Naval University, and Shipbuilding University, Confucius has already made arrangements, and the enrollment scale of each school is still expanding.

  The next expansion of enrollment will probably have to wait until you upgrade the Yigong territory to the Yiwang territory, otherwise the universities and vocational technical schools will not be able to accommodate more students. "

  Xinping said: "My lord, the heroes and administrators from all walks of life are preparing to return to the Holy Land one after another."

   Qu Mao nodded, and said: "On the way out, I purchased some original technical blueprints. Please help me to hand them over to Zhongmou, and realize them as soon as possible."

  Xinping took the technical drawings and turned to leave, Qu Mao grabbed Xinping and said, "Let's finish dinner first.

  I still want to have a good sleep. After running outside for more than a month, I am really tired.

  I really wish that the steam engine would be invented tomorrow, and then travel would not be as strenuous as it is now. "

  Kong Ming said with a smile: "Let's eat, my subordinates also want to see the prototype of the steam engine soon."
