MTL - Lord of the People: I Rely on Cheating To Fight For Hegemony-Chapter 1198 New Energy and New Materials
After arriving at the King City of Tassel King on February 14th, the seventh year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao attended the court meeting of the Tassel Kingdom on the second day, and then wandered around the independent territories of the Eastern Continent.
The name is to inspect the situation in the independent territory governed by the Liusu Empire. In fact, Qu Mao has no clear goal. He not only went to the border of the Marquis of Moner, which is facing the Mughal Empire, but also to the border of the Kingdom of Dali. Inspect nearby.
However, on February 25th, the seventh year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao suddenly received a letter from Feige from Xinping, and then had to end his aimless journey on the Eastern Continent and head to the Holy Land of Yigong Territory ahead of time.
On February 27th, the seventh year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao traveled day and night along the road, and finally returned to the lord's hut in the holy place of Yi Island, the territory of Yi Gong.
Xinping, who had already mastered Qu Mao's itinerary, rushed to the lord's hut immediately, and met Qu Mao in the living room on the first floor of the lord's hut.
Regardless of the exhaustion of the journey, Qu Mao asked eagerly: "Xinping, where are the new energy petroleum crude oil and new material rubber mentioned in your Feige Biography now?"
Xinping waved his hand and said, "My lord, the new energy and new materials are not in Yidao now, but according to your order: transport the ten barrels of crude oil and ten barrels of rubber provided by the residents to the Outlying Island Power Research Institute. Follow the new energy and new materials to the outlying island power research institute."
Qu Mao stood up and said, "Let's go to the Power Research Institute of the Outlying Islands..."
Xinping grabbed Qu Mao and said, "My lord, please allow me to finish the report first.
The residents not only provided 10 barrels of rubber samples, but also provided 100 rubber tree seedlings. The subordinates have planted 50 classes in Liandao and Midway Twin Islands respectively, and notified Jia Sixie and Franklin King to appoint special planting experts to be responsible Nursing, to ensure that 100 rubber tree seedlings can survive.
At the same time, Qu Mao issued a reward policy of 1 silver coin for each rubber tree seedling while honoring the rewards to the residents, asking the residents to provide more rubber tree seedlings. "
Qu Mao nodded and said: "The 100 rubber tree saplings in the early stage should be similar, but the rubber tree saplings should grow for a few years before they can cut out the rubber, and continue to maintain this scale of planting until the first batch of 100 rubber trees. When the seedlings can produce rubber, I am afraid that our rubber forest has already reached a large scale.
What about new energy petroleum crude oil? Where was it found? "
Xinping said: "My lord, the new energy petroleum crude oil was found and transported back from the Southern Continent by the Nandi Chamber of Commerce. We have not found any oil deposits in the Holy Land of Yigong Territory and the independent territories of the Eastern Continent.
The subordinates have arranged a special team to survey the independent territories of the Eastern Continent carefully again. Unfortunately, no oil deposits have been discovered so far. Please forgive me. "
Qu Mao said: "Forget it, whether there are oil mines is not a problem that we can control whether we work hard or not, and it has nothing to do with you.
Let's not discuss these for now, and go to the Institute of Power on the Island as soon as possible. I want to see how well the researchers of the Institute of Power have processed these two new materials. "
Xinping held Qu Mao again, and said, "My lord, please stay calm.
According to the information held by the subordinates, the research of new energy petroleum crude oil and new material rubber by the Outlying Islands Power Research Institute has not made any substantial progress so far.
My lord, there is absolutely no need for you to be anxious for a while, even if you rush over now, there will be no results for you to understand. "
Qu Mao said: "Xinping, the more this is the case, the sooner I should rush over. I have seen some of them before, and I can give them some guidance."
After finishing speaking, Qu Mao did not allow Xinping to object. He took Xinping and walked towards the backyard of the lord's hut. When he found two war horses, Qu Mao took Xinping out directly from the backyard of the lord's hut.
An hour later, Qu Mao and Xinping rushed to the Institute of Power Research on Outlying Islands. They did not see Bi Sheng and Yan Qisheng, but the first thing Qu Mao saw was Kong Ming.
Qu Mao immediately asked: "Kong Ming, you have found an excuse to leave the lord's cabin. How is the situation now?"
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said with a smile: "My lord, it's not that the subordinates must leave the lord's hut, of course, if the subordinates leave the lord's hut, it will not affect the subordinates' fulfillment of the task of sitting in the Holy Land.
My subordinates are well aware of how much you care about new energy petroleum crude oil and new material rubber, so they sent the samples to the Island Power Institute for research immediately.
Not only sent the samples, but the subordinates even personally supervised the research on the processing and application of raw materials at the Island Power Research Institute, but unfortunately there has not been much progress so far. "
Qu Mao asked suspiciously: "Has the oil separation device I drew before been finished?"
Kong Ming nodded, and while taking Qu Mao inside, he said: "My lord, the oil and crude oil separation device has been done a long time ago, it is just a few layers of separated liquid, some will disappear automatically after volatilization, and some have a pungent smell. the taste of…"
Qu Mao shook his head helplessly, followed Kong Ming to the laboratory where the oil and crude oil separation device was located, pointed to different separation devices, and said, "Kong Ming, the liquids obtained in different distillation and cooling processes are different. It's gasoline, which is what you call a volatile liquid, which is a very good fuel; and kerosene, which is what you call a pungent-smelling liquid, is also a fuel; the last remaining, either diesel, Either asphalt, which can be used to pave roads..."
As another world-student Qu Mao, being able to remember the names of these substances separated from crude oil is already quite remarkable.
Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan and said to the staff around him: "Remember, the rest is asphalt, which can be used to build roads... Gasoline evaporates very quickly..."
Qu Mao added: "Kong Ming, gasoline must be stored in an airtight container. If it escapes in the air and is not discharged quickly, it will explode when it encounters sparks..."
Kong Ming's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said: "Sir, this must be studied carefully. As long as it explodes, it may be used in the military..."
Qu Mao rolled his eyes and said: "The current focus of the Island Power Research Institute is the separation of petroleum and crude oil, and the processing of rubber.
I have no idea about the processing of rubber. You need to develop your own from scratch.
Next, I will go to see the progress of the research and development of iron-clad warships and steel chariots. Kong Ming, you are in charge of the application research of new energy and new materials at the Institute of Power. "
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "My lord, this is very good! I hope that oil, crude oil and rubber can once again lead the industry and technology of Yigong Territory to a new level."
Qu Mao nodded and said: "It will definitely.
