Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 1110: Shenmu Border, Qiaozhuang Check

He looked at the border city of Shenmu Kingdom in the distance, which was once famous for its Thousand Machine Locks and Wooden Kite.

What is installed on the city wall now is a steam crane imitating the one used by Daqian!

However, these things are not worthy of the name, they just imitate the shape, and the power that the steam engine can generate is very small.

This made him marvel at the thought.

Although there is still a clear gap between it and Daqian's technology.

But it can also be seen that after the concept of steam engine was introduced to them.

Many craftsmen in the Shenmu Kingdom also began to try to replicate it using their own methods.

If they were given a few more days, they might be able to make the steam engine that Qin Ming used to power his train.

You know, Qin Ming originally only provided them with part of the technology.

All these technologies were in the hands of Hua Yunhong. Except for the imperial court, the common people were not allowed to master steam technology.

The reason is actually very simple.

Because originally in the Shenmu Kingdom, all those advanced mechanical technologies were controlled by the royal family and the court.

Even if ordinary civilians carefully study mechanical engineering, the progress and achievements they can achieve are very limited.

Only the royal family and some royal nobles in the court can truly touch the core of mechanical engineering.

And after they possessed some of the technology provided by Qin Ming.

This model has been replicated, setting up thresholds for these technologies.

They are even unwilling to share many basic principles, which means that those who want to learn technology can only rely on guessing.

At this time, Chu Ying, who was responsible for driving Qin Ming's carriage, slowly turned his head and said to Qin Ming:

"Your Majesty, do you think the situation of these people is a little strange?"

In the past few days, Chu Ying has been trying to ensure Qin Ming's safety.

He personally arranged for people to provide protection, and also put aside his current tasks and followed Qin Ming north.

When he and Qin Ming saw these things together, he felt a little strange.

Because compared to the formal technology, the other party showed us these simplified steam engines.

It can't even be considered a simplification, it should be said that it has taken a detour.

This rule is quite different from the technology provided by Qin Ming.

That's why he would split it.

However, Qin Ming did not have any worries. He smiled and said:

"The Shenmu Kingdom has an extremely large population. With so many people sharing their wisdom, even if the imperial court wanted to control the technology, it would be impossible. As long as they know about the existence of steam engines, these things will be put to practical use in a few years."

"But didn't their court say that civilians can't master this technology?"

Chu Ying was a little hesitant. According to his idea, the Shenmu Kingdom should still be the same as before.

Originally, they had strict control over mechanical techniques.

But now it seems that Qin Ming is not too worried about their blockade.

This made Chu Ying feel very strange, and Qin Ming also saw his doubts.

At this time, he smiled and explained:

"You don't understand that this technology doesn't have a very high threshold. Plus, they already have a certain foundation. Even though the imperial court wants to block it, can they really lock up millions of people with their abilities?"

"As long as they know this is a good thing, they will definitely continue to research it, and then it will be easy to make it."

“As for Hua Yunhong, it can block it for one or two days, but if they are everywhere, can it block the people everywhere?”

"Eventually it will flow into the public."

Qin Ming still looks at the problem in the long term, especially at this time, he is not worried that this technology will be directly blocked too much.

Because his original arrangement was to let all these people possess Daqian's technology.

This kind of class division among them should not have existed in the first place.

After hearing what Qin Ming said, Chu Ying slowly nodded.

The two came to the city.

There was actually a train track laid in their city.

When seeing this track, Chu Ying beside him excitedly said to Qin Ming:

"Your Majesty, you see that their railway tracks have reached the border area. It seems that they are really working on the construction of freight trains."

Qin Ming originally brought the steam engine technology to Shenmu when the country was destroyed.

I had thought that this day would come, but I didn't expect that Hua Yunhong had quietly built all the railway tracks in the border area.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming walked forward and observed the traces of use on the train tracks, but he soon discovered that something was wrong.

"Look at these freight tracks. Apart from the traces of wind and rain and rust, there don't seem to be many other unnecessary traces."

The traces Qin Ming mentioned are the traces left when the train passes over the tracks.

It was obvious that nothing was left here, which made Chu Ying very confused.

"Why don't they use the rails after building them? This iron cabinet looks like it's been there for a long time. You can even see signs of weathering in some places."

Chu Ying's observations were very detailed. In comparison, they had actually done a lot.

Especially the construction of train tracks during this stage.

For the Shenmu Kingdom, which has experienced several rounds of wars, this is a very expensive thing.

Although I spent so much money and got the job done, I only did half of it.

This made them all feel very strange, and Qin Ming quickly guessed where Hua Yunhong's difficulties lay.

"Guess why they built the tracks but didn't run the trains?"

"Because there's no front end?"

Chu Ying was also a smart man. After hearing about Qin Ming's culture, he quickly guessed why.

For example, although Hua Yunhong and his team had the technology provided by Qin Ming, many corresponding factories had not been built.

The raw materials and craftsmanship used to make these locomotives are also substandard.

So it's been so slow.

It was even more difficult in the initial stage.

At this time they could only build the railway tracks first.

As for the locomotives needed to drive the trains later, they need to wait for a while before they can be released one after another.

Even if the train is able to pass through with a locomotive, the internal areas must be taken care of first. As for the railway tracks in these border areas, it is estimated that it will take a long time before they are built.

"It seems they are quite fast."

"Once the common people develop their own steam engines, they can make them even faster."

Qin Ming spoke slowly.

At this moment, his eyes were attracted by a shop in the distance.

There are rows of seeds placed over there!

"Is this... a seed from Daqian?"

Qin Ming walked forward quickly with some surprise and asked the boss.
