Chapter 855： Promote together

Dahua's core technology is basically provided by Wu Changqing.

However, Wu Changqing is not alone in promoting technological progress in this world, others are also working hard.

Dahua's scientific researchers naturally did not have any breakthrough inventions in a short period of time, but they did a lot of improvement work on their original scientific and technological inventions.

Take the steam engine, for example. After Wu Changqing provided some core technologies, the rest of the improvement work was handed over to the steam generator staff.

There are many improvements. There are dozens or hundreds of parts on a steam engine. The improvement of any part can improve the performance of the steam engine.

Dahua’s technology star Feng Xianzhong has been focusing on the research of the steam engine and has not changed it.

There are not one hundred parts, but eighty parts that he has improved.

Even if Dahua already has a variety of more advanced technologies such as internal combustion engines, he is still studying steam engines.

After all, a single steam engine project requires him to spend his entire life.

The effort paid off. In April of the sixth year of Yongxing, the steam generator led by Feng Xianzhong produced a steam engine capable of generating pressures of up to 5 MPa.

Compared with the early steam, it is several dozen times higher.

To describe it vividly, the speed of the previous steam engine was only a few dozen per minute.

And now Feng Xianzhong's improved steam engine has a speed of 300 per minute, five or six times the previous speed.

Using this new steam engine to propel a ship of the same weight can increase the speed by two or three times.

The increase in power also means that ships with larger tonnage can be manufactured.

In the past, only ships with a displacement of 5,000 tons could be built, and they could not be propelled with more steam engines.

Now, Dahua has theoretically the ability to manufacture 10,000-ton ships. If you don't consider the cost performance, you can install a few more steam engines, and even a ship of 20,000 to 30,000 tons can barely be made.

The 10,000-ton giant wheel is full of energy just thinking about it.

In the future, the speed of trains can also be greatly increased, and all kinds of steam-using machines can reduce the size, increase the speed, and improve the efficiency.

Its progress is comprehensive, and its promotion to industry is also comprehensive, which is of great significance.

After Wu Changqing learned of the news, he gave the members of the steam engine research team the honorable title of collective first-class work.

Part of the outstanding people have received many awards, including knighthood.

Feng Xianzhong was also promoted from the original Marquis to the Duke.

This is quite remarkable, you know, Li Shaobin is just a duke at present.

This award gave Dahua researchers a great encouragement.

More and more people are beginning to invest in scientific research. This is the easiest and safest way to obtain a title.

The steam engine team is not the only one who is working hard.

The person in charge of the internal combustion engine project also succeeded in miniaturizing the engine and then making a motorcycle.

Compared with cars, motorcycles are cheaper and more flexible, and they can travel on various small roads.

For some people who cannot afford a car, a motorcycle is also an option.

In previous years, bicycles were a fashion trend.

But soon, this fashion trend will be led by motorcycles.

For some teenagers, riding a motorcycle on the road is the happiest thing. As for safety, some people really don't care.

People in the rubber project team also successfully synthesized rubber.

This is a progress they have been forced out. There is too little natural rubber. The purchase of Brazilian rubber alone cannot satisfy Dahua’s huge demand.

In this case, the people of the project team tried to cooperate manually based on the characteristics of rubber.

After many failures, they finally succeeded in their research.

Although the current synthesis technology is still very rough, the cost is relatively high.

But this is not a problem. The problem of starting from scratch is solved, and the following things are easy to handle.

As long as we continue to study, we will soon find a way to reduce costs and solve the problem of Dahua's lack of rubber.

With the increasing use of oil, Dahua has learned more about oil.

Dahua also obtained many derivatives when refining oil.

Such as asphalt.

Pitch is the residue after the distillation of crude oil, which can also be produced during coking of coal.

The role of asphalt is also very extensive, can be used in coatings, plastics, rubber and other fields.

Of course, its main function is to build roads, which is commonly known as asphalt roads.

Compared with concrete roads, asphalt roads are softer, and vehicles are more comfortable to travel on and have less noise.

For road sections where the foundation is not strong enough, the adaptability is also stronger.

Although it is slightly more expensive than cement roads, if the asphalt is not used for road construction, it can only be thrown away, causing waste.

Therefore, these asphalts are basically used to repair roads.

In the medical field, Dahua has also achieved considerable results.

Wu Changqing produced a lot of medical theories, even some samples of medicines. Those doctors groped based on these theories, and thus mastered a lot of treatment methods.

Based on the samples of those medicines, the ingredients were reversed, and many advanced medicines were successfully imitated.

The development of medical treatment is also thanks to the development of microscopes.

As the magnification of the microscope gets higher and higher, people have a deeper understanding of microorganisms and bacteria.

With the mastery of pathology, the treatment will have a clear direction.

All walks of life actually complement each other.

A breakthrough in one industry can often promote the rapid development of another industry.

These are relatively significant advances, and the small improvements, enhancements, and inventions are even more numerous.

A more convenient light switch, a better braking object, and a fan that can rotate by itself are all inventions.

Although the impact of these small inventions on society is not particularly large, they cannot stand the large number.

Countless similar small inventions together promote the progress of this society.

Wu Changqing did not go out of the palace to take a look at the current city of Nanjing, otherwise he would definitely be surprised.

In the current Nanjing, many later generations have been born to have daily necessities.

The whole society presents a very peculiar scene.

On the one hand, there are people who ride in a carriage and feel that they have traveled to the Middle Ages.

On the other hand, there are people riding bicycles, feeling that they have traveled to the nineteenth century.

There are also people driving cars and street lights on the side of the road. It feels like they have crossed into the twentieth century.

In the history of the original time and space, no place will have a scene like the present Nanjing.

This kind of sight will be ridiculous and awkward for a later generation to see.

At that time, for the Nanjing people of this era, they were very used to it.

In their eyes, the development of the world should have been like this.
