Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 982

"Marquis Changle, since electricity is so miraculous, can it be used on the battlefield to reduce casualties?"

"It's theoretically possible, but in reality it's impossible. It will probably take hundreds of years to achieve this!"

Hearing Wei Wu's answer, the general couldn't help but sigh and thought to himself what a pity.

In fact, Wei Wu also wanted to do it, but the problem was that even in later generations, no one could create the plasma weapons seen in science fiction movies.

There are only weapons like electromagnetic guns that use electrical energy to convert kinetic energy, or convert lasers and microwaves.

But even this is an impossible task for Wei Wu, and it is beyond his ability.

Even if you know the principle of electromagnetic gun, you can use electromagnetic force to accelerate objects and give them super kinetic energy to cause damage.

The problem is that this thing is just like an atomic bomb. It is not something you can actually make just because you know the principle.

The core formula of the atomic bomb is E=mc?. This is public information to the whole world, but how many countries can actually manufacture it?

So, after answering the general, Wei Wu put the topic aside and turned to business.

"I've verified everything that needs to be verified. From now on, I hope no more clowns will come out and embarrass us."

As soon as Wei Wu finished speaking, the officials in Fengxian Hall immediately turned their eyes to the official who was causing trouble.

Many people were secretly laughing in their hearts, saying that he had nothing better to do than to pick on anyone else, but he chose to pick the one who held the most grudges.

Now I get slapped in the face but I can't say a word. I can only lower my head and let others ridicule me. It's so miserable.

However, Wei Wu did not look at the official who was causing trouble. He just wanted to get the job done quickly.

So when everyone else was laughing at the official, he spoke directly:

"Regarding the issue of electricity, it's not obtained from thunder as some people think. That kind of energy is too inefficient."

"The way we get electricity is very simple, that is, conversion. Whether it's the blowing wind or the flowing water, we can convert it."

"Just like the light bulbs you just saw, the craftsmen built a hydroelectric power station in the palace to provide it with energy."

When the other officials heard that Wei Wu had once again whipped the corpse of the troublemaker, they couldn't help but laugh in their hearts.

However, they soon gave up laughing at that person and became curious because of what Wei Wu said next.

Many of them want to know how wind and water can be converted into electricity.

But unfortunately Wei Wu did not give them a chance to speak.

“The knowledge about how wind and water are converted into electricity is too complex. It’s impossible to understand without systematic study.”

In fact, if Wei Wu really wanted to explain, it was not impossible, but there was really no need to do so.

Anyway, it is impossible for these officials to engage in scientific research, and if they speak out, the information may be leaked and known to the enemy.

After all, the key to obtaining electricity is the principle. As long as you know the principle, it can be easily achieved, so it is best not to say it.

After putting an end to the officials' desire to delve deeper, Wei Wu continued:

"What I want to tell you now is that the Institute of Science and Technology has already achieved initial results in the use of electrical energy."

"I call it an electric motor. Like a steam engine, it converts energy into power and presents it through machinery."

"In fact, energy can be converted into each other. As for how it is presented, I will demonstrate it to you next."

As he spoke, Wei Wu walked out of Fengxian Hall again, and soon returned to the hall with two craftsmen.

Wei Wu was holding something in his hand that no one had ever seen before, and the two craftsmen behind him were also carrying something.

If there were other time travelers, they would be able to tell at a glance that the two craftsmen were clearly holding electric fans.

However, unlike later electric fans, the blades of this electric fan are made of wood and have no outer cover.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on the faces of the officials, Wei Wu did not explain anything, but just walked to the table.

He connected the things in his hands to the mobile power supply, then instructed the craftsman to move the electric fan to his side before speaking:

"During the dog days of summer, when everyone attends court, His Majesty usually has ice basins prepared to make the palace less stuffy."

"But I think everyone knows what the effect is, but if you add this, you will feel much more comfortable."

"I told you that energy can be transformed into each other, so now is the time to witness a miracle."

As he spoke, Wei Wu directly connected the electric fan to the mobile power supply, and then saw the fan blades slowly turning.

As time passed, the fan blades rotated faster and faster, and there were bursts of sounds of air being stirred.

At the same time, stirred by the fan blades, a continuous strong wind blew towards the direction where the officials were standing not far away.

Although this fan was not as shocking as the previous electric current, it still amazed everyone.

After all, the wind blown out by this electric fan is much stronger than the wind produced by a fan shaken by human hands, and it does not require much effort.

But just as they felt the wind blowing on their faces, Wei Wu spoke again.

"This is the conversion of electrical energy into wind energy. The next demonstration is the conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy. Everyone, look here."

As he spoke, Wei Wu pointed to something beside him that no one had ever seen before. Now, this thing had begun to glow.

In fact, saying that they have never seen it is only for these ancient people. Any modern person can recognize it. This thing is called the Little Sun.

As time passed, the light of the little sun became brighter and brighter, and waves of heat came out from the reflective pot.

Feeling that it was almost done, Wei Wu spoke again:

"Everyone, if you are interested, you can come and experience what it feels like to convert electrical energy into heat energy."

Upon hearing this, the officials who had been eager to try immediately stepped forward.

In fact, Wei Wu wanted to get an air conditioner at the beginning, but he considered that the space inside Fengxian Hall was too large and the effect would not be obvious.

So he simply replaced it with a small sun, as long as it could be demonstrated. As for the electric fan, he asked Sun Chang to make it.

This thing is the simplest. You just need to build the motor, and everything else can be easily done.

It just so happened that Wei Wu was also planning to take this opportunity to commend Sun Chang for his achievements. After all, he could already be called the father of electric motors!
