Chapter 2104: Big search, telegraph relay station started!

Genius remembers the permanent address of this site in one second: www.81zw.us

"... Master Cishi, and His Royal Highness Wei Wang, his subordinates followed

Kangqu all the way to Jining Fang in the west of the city. They did not find

anything unusual in him, nor did they see him in contact with anyone on the

road. Someone is hiding near his house and watching it secretly, and

immediately report any news!"

Taiyuan City, the back hall of the governor's house.

Feng Catou strode in from the outside, hugged Wang Liaoyuan and Li Tai inside.

At this time, only Wang Liaoyuan and Li Tai were left in the house. As for the

Dugu Flying Eagle, he took the weapons that were scattered by the assassins in

the morning, and cooperated with the soldiers of the state camp to search for

the assassins in the city, and Wang Yu naturally I also have to go back to the

Wang Family to make some arrangements. After all, in terms of finding people,

especially in the Taiyuan City, the Wang Family's ability and strength will

not be weaker than that of the government.

The main reason why Li Tai has not left is because he is waiting for news from

the people who followed Kang Qu.

Wang Liaoyuan frowned and asked, "You mean Kang Qu has a house in Jiningfang?"

"Yes!"

Feng Butou replied.

Wang Liaoyuan continued to ask: "Have you found out when he started to do

business in Taiyuan City?"

Feng Datou clasped his fist and said: "The subordinates learned through

investigation that Kang Qu came to Taiyuan city three years ago. He opened a

treasure shop in the city that specializes in selling gems and pearls. The

business has been good over the years, and he is a man. It can be considered

an honest duty. Last year, he just married a wife in the local area. The wife

is the daughter of a squire outside Taiyuan, named Xu Xiuhe. After the two got

married, they were also affectionate. No unusual things have happened! "

Wang Liaoyuan condensed his eyebrows without saying a word, while Li Tai asked

aloud: "Have you ever asked this Kang Qu's neighbors, did any stranger find

him or send him a letter today?"

Feng Datou nodded and said: "Back to your Highness, my subordinates asked an

aunt who sells biscuits in front of the Kang family. She said that in Kang's

residence today, apart from Kang Qu, there is only one old farmer who delivers

vegetables to carry a burden. Dishes have been in, and no one else has ever

been in or out of Kangfu!"

"The old farmer who delivers vegetables~?"

Li Tai moved in his heart and quickly asked, "What is the origin of this old

farmer? Have you checked it out?"

Feng Tau’s “work” on this trip was clearly done, and he replied with a fist,

“The subordinates asked, this old farmer used to be a farmer in Nanhe Village

outside the city. He has a son who lives in the city. Moved into the city to

live with his son, and basically delivered food to Kang Qu's house every few

days, nothing unusual!"

Hearing this, Li Tai couldn't help but constrict his eyebrows without saying a

word.

Upon seeing this, Wang Liaoyuan waved his hand at Feng Catch's head and said,

"You have done a good job with this matter, let's go down first! The official

and His Royal Highness still need to discuss something!"

"Here~!"

Feng Tau clasped his fists, bowed and retired.

Li Tai raised his head at this time and looked at Wang Liaoyuan and said:

"Wang Cishi, this king still thinks this Kang Qu has a big problem, you let

people continue to stare at Kang Qu, if you find an abnormality, immediately

report to this king!"

Although on the surface, Kang Qu is normal, Li Tai's instinct tells him that

this Kang Qu must be concealed secretly!

Wang Liaoyuan has been an official for so many years, and he still has the

alertness he should have. He himself felt that Kang Qu seemed to have some

problems. Hearing this, he nodded and said: "Okay! The next official will

arrange it!"

Li Tai nodded and stood up and said, "In that case, I'll leave it to Wang

Cishi. This king has other official duties to be busy, so I will leave first!"

Although Duguxin was assassinated, and although the assassins lurking in the

city have not yet been caught, the task of building a telegraph relay station

in the academy still has to continue, and even speed up, because Li Tai does

not know how much resistance he will encounter on the road. Faster, faster, or

you may not be able to complete the task in two months!

Wang Liaoyuan moved in his heart, and said: "The hidden dangers in the city

have not been eliminated. Your Royal Highness had better not walk around in

recent days. If your Royal Highness insists on going to Longshan, you can

bring the Forbidden Army and the soldiers of the Bingzhou Camp!"

Obviously, Wang Liaoyuan also saw that Li Tai would not "stop" because of the

assassin, so he would remind him.

Li Tai nodded and said, "Hmm! This king knows! I will be careful about

everything!"

Having said that, Li Tai took his hands and walked toward the door with his

feet up.

……………………………………………

Today's Taiyuan City is destined to not be peaceful.

In fact, in the past two days, Taiyuan City has not been peaceful. Yesterday,

both the bright side and the dark side of the Wang family came out, and they

were frantically looking for Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan in the city. In

this corner, searching for something from door to door.

After these sergeants entered the homes of the people, they did not ask

anything, and searched the house all over! The homes of those butchers and

hunters were the focus of the search. The knives, arrows and other weapons

hidden in their homes were all searched out by sergeants from the Binzhou

Camp.

Then one of the sergeants took out a drawing from his arms. The drawing was

painted with various weapons, and the weapons were also engraved with a

specific pattern. The sergeant looked at the weapons found on the ground from

the people's houses, and at the same time looked at the drawings in his hands,

as if they were comparing them.

After the comparison is complete, if there is nothing unusual, the sergeants

will withdraw without a word; if the weapons found are similar to the weapons

on the drawings, the owner of the house will be arrested and sent directly to

the governor's house!

There are a total of 56 private squares in Taiyuan City, with a population of

more than 400,000. Ten thousand soldiers searched from house to house. This

kind of "project" is not small.

This was at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. The military discipline of the

Tang army was still very strict. As the most powerful barracks in the northern

part of the Tang Dynasty, Binzhou Camp was naturally extremely strict.

Although the soldiers were searching from house to house, they were still very

strict during the search. The rule is that the owner of the house first

gathers the female relatives in the house before they enter the house to

search. Therefore, although the search by the soldiers has caused some

inconvenience to the lives of the people, in general, the people in Taiyuan

City Most of the people still support the "work" of the soldiers.

Of course, there are always special exceptions in everything. Not all people

are willing to cooperate with the soldiers in the search. Some big wealthy

families in the city are often reluctant to search by the soldiers. After all,

they are all with great business, in case the soldiers We broke something when

we went in and searched, and the loss would be great!

Moreover, the rich have many secrets. If the soldiers of the mansion

discovered something shameful about the mansion owner during the search,

wouldn't it be a big loss?

Therefore, many masters of high-ranking families heard that the soldiers came

to search, and they couldn’t help but want to instruct Jiadinghuyuan to

obstruct them. However, today’s search warrants for the whole city are the two

states, Wang Liaoyuan, the provincial governor, and Fang Gongteng, who joined

the army. It was jointly issued by the state's current highest-level military

and political chiefs, and the soldiers will execute this search warrant

unconditionally!

Those wealthy family Dinghuyuan who wanted to prevent them from searching were

all knocked down by them. If the owner of the house still didn’t know how to

promote, he was arrested directly and sent off with those who had hidden

suspicious weapons in their homes. To the governor's house.

As a result, for a while, Taiyuan City can be described as a joke.

At the same time, Longshan did not seem to be affected by Taiyuan City at all.

According to Li Tai's assignment of tasks in the morning, members of the fifth

and sixth groups took measurement tools and began surveying the buildings

inside and outside the Longshan Tongzi Temple.

The measurement tools they took were from Yanhuang Academy. At the beginning

of this year, the second and third "killer project" of the academy were

formally established. The second "killer project" aimed to improve the

telegraph machine and increase the transmission distance of the telegraph. The

third "killer project" was mainly to formulate measurement standards. ,

Manufacturing standard measuring tools!

After nearly half a year of hard work, the academy not only established its

own measurement standards committee to formulate unit standards for some new

physical quantities, but also produced a number of precision measuring

instruments in conjunction with the Qiquge Workshop. These instruments and

meters will provide standard reference for all similar instruments in the

future, and they will be proofread as soon as they are changed!

The measuring instruments held by these students on Longshan include a

straightedge, a large triangle ruler, and even a tape measure. The units of

these measuring length instruments are not the "inch", "ruler", and "zhang"

commonly used by the people of Datang. , But the new units proposed by the

Academy of Metrology Standards Committee based on Li Zexuan's

meaning-"millimeter", "centimeter", "decimeter" and "meter"!

Although one centimeter on these rulers for measuring length may not be

exactly equal to one centimeter on those modern rulers, it is not important.

In ancient times, if you want to carry out precision production, you must

measure the ancient units of measurement. Subdivision, like this time, the

smallest unit of length is one inch (approximately equal to 3.333 cm), which

obviously cannot meet the needs of precision production, so Li Zexuan not only

proposed millimeters, but even smaller units such as micrometers. At present,

more precise measuring tools such as vernier calipers are also being

manufactured!

"Mr. Mo, we have already measured the inside and outside of the Tongzi Temple.

We believe that the height here fully meets the requirements for the

construction of the telegraph relay station. We can even directly build the

telegraph relay station on the second floor of the Tongzi Temple. As a result,

we don’t need to build an extra high platform for the telegraph relay station,

there will be a lot of time left~!"

Near noon, eight students in the fifth and sixth groups found Mo Chue. One of

the students passed the drawing in his hand to Mo Chue and reported it

seriously.

Mo Chui reached out and took the drawing and looked at it carefully.

This is when the students just surveyed. By the way, they drew the structure

of the Tongzi Temple according to a certain proportion. The key areas were

marked with dimensions. Those who understand the new engineering drawing

method invented by Li Zexuan can basically understand it at a glance!

"Yeah! Very good! Your judgment is not wrong. Taking Longshan plus the height

of the first floor of the Tongzi Temple, it is completely feasible to build a

telegraph relay station on the second floor of the Buddhist temple! But where

to place this generator? Pang Sheng, have you thought about it? ?"

After roughly scanning the drawing, Mo Chu nodded, approvingly, and then he

asked again.

Telegraphs need electricity, and telegraph relay stations naturally need

electricity, and batteries must not be used. After all, the "life" that

batteries can provide is limited, so we can only hope for small power

stations.

The construction of the hydropower station is time-consuming and labor-

intensive, so what they brought from the Academy this time is a small thermal

power station, which is also the first thermal power station in Datang

history!

"Mr. Huimo, about the power station, it must not be placed in the house,

otherwise it is easy to walk through the water. We think it should be placed

in the backyard to the north of the Tongzi Temple, which is spacious and

convenient for the guards of the army, rather than placing it outside the

Tongzi Temple. Safety!"

The student named Pang Sheng replied.

"Yeah! You have a comprehensive consideration!"

Hearing this, Mo Chui nodded and said in appreciation: "In that case,

immediately notify the members of the second, third, and fourth groups so that

they can start preparing to build the thermal power station! Remember to

measure and adjust the voltage at that time , Otherwise the voltage is too

high and our machine will burn out easily!"

"Yes!"

Pang Sheng and the others nodded, then turned and left.

"Mr. Mo Chui, what's the situation here?"

At this moment, Li Tai also came to Longshan, walked to Mo Chui's side, and

asked.

When he came out of the governor's mansion, he didn't even return to the post

house, so he rushed to Longshan with dozens of guards. Now that Taiyuan City

is full of soldiers from the Bingzhou camp, Li Tai is not worried that he will

jump out to assassinate him at this moment. If that is the case, he has to

breathe a sigh of relief, because the number of forbidden troops around him is

small. But everyone is a person with high martial arts, even if they can't

beat the moment for a while, they can be held back temporarily. As long as

they can be held for a while, the soldiers in the city will definitely come

over and arrest them!

Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Mo Chui was shocked and turned around

quickly. After seeing Li Tai, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Pang

Sheng and the others have completed the survey. We all think we can directly

build the telegraph relay station. Zen room on the second floor of Tongzi

Temple~www.mtlnovel.com~ At this moment, I am asking Jia Jiayin and Li Yan to

lead people to build a thermal power station in the backyard of Tongzi

Temple!"

Hearing this, Li Tai looked faintly excited and said: "Okay! It is best to

build the telegraph relay station directly in the second floor of the Tongzi

Temple. In this way, we can have a lot of engineering and a lot of time left!

However, this thermal power station was only a successful initial test in the

workshop. Now we want to put it into practical use. I am afraid that there

will be some problems in the middle! Let's concentrate on making the thermal

power station run smoothly in these two days. !"

"Yeah! Qingque, your worries are not unreasonable! Just do what you said!

After we adjust the thermal generator this time, it will be much easier next

time!"

Mo Chui nodded when he heard the words, then he frowned and asked with a

worried expression: "By the way, Qingque, what's the situation with General

Dugu now?"

When he, Li Tai, Dugu Feiying and others went to Longshan in the morning, they

were "chased" by the forbidden army. Therefore, Mo Chui knew about the news of

Duguxin's assassination, but in order to avoid panic, he was not right. The

rest of the students said.
