The group hurriedly walked towards the forging courtyard.

The Forge is located not far from the county seat. The location of the old town makes it impossible to expand the forge yard.

This is also the reason why Liu Chen moved to split the forging institute and set up various industrial branches. Avoid clutter and have a clear division of labor.

These new factories are not located in the old city and the new town, but are built in a different no-man's land.

Liu Chen will be named: High-tech Development Zone.

The surrounding people, residents, pedestrians on the road, stopped and saluted after seeing Liu Chen and the many officials behind him.

Every people's gaze on Liu Chen is a starry worship!

Liu Chen bowed his head to them one by one.

Frustrated, Tian Feng, Guo Jia and others were also very polite to the surrounding people, and they did not have the arrogance of the family clans.

This is one of Liu Chen's demands, when officials do not decide for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes, which is one of the year-end evaluation criteria for officials.

Speaking of sweet potatoes.

The sweet potatoes and potatoes planting land have grown strongly, and in a short time, Liu Chen will be able to see their harvest.

This made Liu Chen's heart full of anticipation!

Only when food is worry-free can we be more secure.

"Huh."

Liu Chen's mind was like electricity, and he happened to pass by the door of a family, where an old man was boiling water.

Since Liu Chen asked to drink boiled water, every household has often boiled water, but there is nothing abnormal.

It was just that what surprised Liu Chen a little was that these people used straw and firewood to boil water, which made Liu Chen stop temporarily with some doubts.

"Your Highness."

Seeing Liu Chen and his group coming, the old man got up excitedly and saluted, and said with a face full of surprise: "Is there anything that grass and grass people can serve you?" "

The others behind him, Tian Feng, Guo Jia, and others also looked at Liu Chen with a puzzled expression.

"There is no need for the elderly to have many cases."

Liu Chen looked at the props for the old man to boil water, and asked with a puzzled face: "Old man, the price of coal is not expensive, why don't you burn coal?" "

"Your Highness, coal is too difficult to burn, it is not as convenient as straw and firewood." The old man said one fifty-one-ten.

Liu Chen was a little surprised!

The official in charge of the Forging Institute immediately stepped forward and explained to Liu Chen: "Your Highness, although we have found coal mines in Changshan, the price has dropped.

"But without large-scale firing, it is difficult for ordinary people to burn coal to make a fire, which is far less convenient than straw and firewood."

"Even wealthy people will not buy coal, but choose charcoal that is more convenient."

Listening to the explanation, Liu Chen suddenly realized!

Liu Chen used the ideas of later generations to apply to ancient times, naturally some methods did not work!

Just like this coal.

However, after this incident, Liu Chen instead thought of a coal-burning artifact - honeycomb coal and honeycomb coal stove!

"This matter has already been known to the king, and this problem will be solved in a while." Liu Chen said with a smile.

"Your Highness really loves the people like a son!"

The old man said with a look of excitement and shock.

A ruler like Liu Chen who loved the people was extinct in the whole Han Dynasty.

Just because of an old man's words, he is ready to find a way to solve this difficult problem, this kind of action, try to ask who else?!

The surrounding people, gentlemen, and passers-by shook one after another, and one by one they looked at Liu Chen in shock, and they worshipped more and more!

Even Guo Jia, Frustrated and Tian Feng and others were also moved!

Guo Jia had a smile on his face.

With Liu Chen's benevolence and righteousness, even if he killed a few Yuan family members, I believe that Xun Yu would not care.

Just waiting for the chaos in the world and the war in Yuzhou, when the time comes, he invites Xun Yu over, and it is bound to succeed.

As long as Xun Yu comes to Changshan and gets along for a long time, he will definitely be impressed by Liu Chen's personality charm!

People have different minds.

Liu Chen waved his hand and said, "The old man doesn't have to be polite, this is a matter within the king's responsibility!" "

After speaking, Liu Chen asked about the relevant details of the old man's life, and what needs to be improved.

The old man knows everything, says everything.

To sum it up: very satisfied, life is already very good and happy!

This is not a show, but Liu Chen's surprise inspection, which naturally looks much more real!

Liu Chen looked satisfied.

Behind them, Tian Feng, and Guo Jia relaxed even more. They are Changshan's parents and the main person in charge.

Liu Chen did not continue to disturb the people, but left here with Guo Jia and other officials.

Many people behind him were still watching from afar, and they all sighed at Liu Chen's benevolence and righteousness!

......

Soon the group arrived at the Forge Yard.

When I arrived at the glassmaking department, I finally saw the "mercury thermometer".

Compared with the delicate and small thermometers of later generations, these three "thermometers" that came out in advance now seem a little simple and coarse.

However, after all, this is the first production, the process is not fully skilled, I believe that when the process is proficient, it will be more perfect.

The earliest thermometer was invented in 1593 by the Italian scientist Galileo.

At that time, the thermometer was still a glass tube and a glass bulb, measured by thermal expansion and contraction, which was extremely large.

After a series of modifications over the years, it was not until 1714 that mercury was used as a measuring substance by Warrenheitt.

It can be said that...

This "mercury thermometer" designed and invented by Liu Chen, although the shape is not as delicate and small as that of later generations, it is definitely the world's first one!

The officials quickly took all kinds of warm water with different temperatures, and each cup of warm water had a manually monitored temperature, written in numbers.

Liu Chen inserted the world's first "mercury thermometer" into it.

Looking at the temperature beating above the mercury, the surrounding officials were a little shocked!

"It's not much different from manual visual inspection, which should be... More accurate, right?! "

"Absolutely! After all, manual visual inspection has some errors, and there is also the influence of ambient temperature! "

"This is a clever invention!"

"The Lord is knowledgeable and talented, let me wait to admire!"

"With this thermometer, whether it is kiln firing, temperature monitoring, or patient visits, it can be of great help!"

"The combination of glass and mercury is so clever! The Lord is truly a god and a man! "

Again the sound of flattery and horse patter.

Of course, these officials are not sycophants, but they are really shocked by this "mercury thermometer"!

It is necessary to know that temperature monitoring in this era is carried out manually.

Whether it is the firing of the kiln or the medical field of patients to see a doctor. It is all through visual inspection and skin-to-skin contact by workers or doctors.

For example, in the field of medicine, there is this temperature guess.

Only a rough range can be said, but it is definitely not accurate.

But this "mercury thermometer", looking at the temperature table engraved on it, compared with the data monitored manually, is simply accurate to the extreme!

Most importantly, this is the first "mercury thermometer", which can only be said to be roughly produced, and has not yet been perfected.

Over time, after many tests and transformations, it will definitely be more exquisite and accurate!
