Chapter 129 Electric lights came out, illuminating my way forward.
After the first generator was made, Zhang Rang followed Li Ke’s orders and built the factory. Make generators in the form of assembly lines.
It can be as bright as day at night, and if you think about it with your toes, this thing will definitely sell well in the future. Li Kei also focused on the development of light bulbs.
This thing is research for others, and for Li Ke, it is to find materials and assemble. Light bulbs, at present, can only do tungsten wire incandescent lamps.
As for energy-saving lamps and LED lamps, the difficulty is slightly higher, or it is impossible to make integrated circuit boards and produce LED lamps. Datang has a vast territory, and China is the country with the richest tungsten gold mines in the world.
Li Kei directly looked at the addresses of major mines according to the history books. Then send someone to search for ore and collect samples.
Refining tungsten is simple, only an acidic solution is required.
With electricity, electrolysis of hydrogen and oxygen is no longer a problem. There are many ways to make sulfuric acid.
Sulfuric acid is directly burned to obtain sulfur dioxide, which is dissolved in water to become sulfurous acid.
Sulfuric acid is not volatile and continues to be oxidized to sulfuric acid by air over a period of time.
Another way is to let the sulfuric acid ignite in a pure oxygen environment, add a catalyst, and directly fire it into sulfur trioxide, which is even sulfuric acid dissolved in water.
These basic inorganic chemistry knowledge is still very simple, Li Ke’s mind remembers. Therefore, a concentrated sulfuric acid solution was easily produced.
The concentration of sulfuric acid is sufficient, and the strong oxidation will make a layer of oxide film form on the surface of the iron tool, which will not corrode the steel, so the concentrated sulfuric acid solution can be directly put into the iron for storage.
To make light bulbs, you can’t do without glass.
While waiting to find tungsten ore, Li Kei also single-handedly built the glass factory. Some boring work Li Kei is not interested in, and it is all handed over to the next person to do. But for the wonderful chemical experiment, it is still very interesting.
So making glass covers, making concentrated sulfuric acid, electrolyzing hydrogen, oxygen, etc., these things were almost done by Li Ke. After having a gold mine, Li Kei is not short of money.
The purchasing power of this gold is more than a hundred times stronger than that of copper plate.
The soldiers also know that this thing cannot be publicized, and they can make their own money.
Every once in a while, I have to go to Sakurajima to transport gold, which is a huge beauty difference. Everyone doesn’t want this huge piece of revenue to be exposed.
Even if the big head is Li Ke’s, others can drink some soup with him.
The main thing is that this thing is too fragrant, and it is enough to use it normally for more than ten years.
With so much gold and so much money, Li Kei finally no longer had to focus on making money. Only liquid money can be called money.
Even if the island country guards such a large gold mine, there is no transportation capacity, and the standard of living has not improved at all. Therefore, Li Kei understood that gold also had to be spent to be useful.
It just so happened that magnets were discovered, so that motors came out, and light bulbs could come out. At this time, laying the power grid has become the largest consumption of money.
Li Kei again asked people to dig a hole on the side of the road and bury the power pole.
Cement and steel poles are not unaffordable, but the cost is slightly higher, and they are only used near their own royal palaces. Distant direct in-situ materials.
Pick some wood, cut it, peel it, burn the roots, and bury them in the soil. Wood is perishable directly into the soil. After burning, a layer of carbon forms on the surface, which will be very stable.
Although it is not good-looking, the durability is greatly improved, and it is not much lower than the durability of concrete poles.
“Good news, Your Highness! Tungsten ore discovered! ”
“Your Highness, the generator set is complete!”
“Your Highness, the first batch of light bulbs has been made!”
A month flies by.
High telephone poles were erected near the palace.
I also made some climbing tools, and it didn’t take long to put up all the wires. On this day, all eyes were on.
The light bulb at the gate of King Li Ke’s mansion has been hanging for a long time, and the people have also seen such miraculous things. The people were waiting on the street for the fruits of these two months for King Zhenyuan.
As soon as it got dark, the generator was already spinning. With a closing sound sounded.
The street suddenly became as bright as day.
Under the light of incandescent lamps, those lanterns were a little dim.
“It’s dawn!”
“Wow, there are also electric lights on the street, Your Highness is really powerful.”
“It’s so bright and bright, even the moon is not as bright as this electric light, it’s so good!”
“It would be nice to install a light bulb in your home!”
Li Ke laughed loudly and said: “Don’t worry, in the future, King Ben will send electric lights to thousands of households, and only need to pay a little electricity bill every month, then we will no longer have to distinguish between day and night in the future.” ”
“Oye!”
“Your Highness is too powerful!”
“Your Highness, I wonder if this electricity bill is expensive?”
Li Ji said with a smile: “Don’t worry, the electricity bill is not expensive, even if it is a night of lights, it is only the price of two candles.” ”
“Two candles, is it so cheap?”
“yes, I thought it was expensive! It’s only money for two candles, then my house will install two light bulbs! ”
“I’m going to have three light bulbs in my house!”
“I’m going to have four light bulbs in my house!”
After a while, Li Su led the team, banging gongs, playing drums, and blowing all the way over.
“Tonight is the first time I have electricity in Liaoshun District, so let’s get up tonight!”
After a while, someone came to set up a stall.
All kinds of snacks, sugar gourds, accessories, as well as handicrafts, jewelry, snacks. Lively as a bazaar during the day.
At night, the home is blinded by dark lights, and when I see the lights outside, more and more people come out. There are kicks, hide-and-seek, and there are those who go to the woods to play games.
There are those who are poetic, some who press the road, and there are those who simply shop and buy. As the night gets deeper, the lights appear brighter and brighter.
Others started dancing with the procession. Li Kei smiled slightly, this is life!
Go back and get a stereo for these aunts, find a square to put on, and you can directly dance square dance. The TV is too difficult, but the sound is not.
A simple horn is a copper wire wound magnet, and the magnet can absorb a thin gold leaf.
However, this kind of entertainment equipment, after studying deeper, Li Kei did not have much thought, and he could leave it to those skilled craftsmen. At this time, Li Kei realized that there were too few skilled craftsmen.
Knowledge has been in their hands for several years, and some have never been used. It’s time to run schools widely, and science and technology are the primary productive forces. At that time, let’s also be a big confucian and accept apprentices.
Learn from Kong Meng and accept thousands of disciples.
