Chapter 25 Miniaturization of Steam Engines

The steam technology in this world is very advanced.

Large ones include steam ships, steam locomotives, steam airships, etc. Small ones include steam intercoms, steam printing presses, etc.

Steam engines usually give people the impression that they are silly, big, black and thick, but it is different here. There are many small steam engines in this world.

The reason why steam engines can be miniaturized is because of the emergence of two energy sources.

One is steamed stone. This stone is solid at room temperature. When heated to a certain extent, it turns into liquid and produces rich water vapor. Moreover, steamed stone has a long service life and can be cut into any size.

The other is burning sand. This is a flammable solid that can be ignited by an open flame and burns for a long time.

People use evaporated stone to replace the water in the steam engine, and use burning sand to replace the coal. The steam engine can be used for a long time without adding water and fuel, which is much more convenient than traditional water and coal.

The biggest difficulty in miniaturizing steam engines is water and fuel. After all, no matter how small and sophisticated the steam engine is, the water and fuel are fixed.

Now with these two energy sources, this biggest problem is solved instantly. After all, these two energy sources have a relatively long service life. Even if they are miniaturized, they can still be used for a while.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

Therefore, after the discovery of these two energy sources, steam engines became smaller and smaller, and things like steam communicators were quickly developed.

Of course, these two kinds of stones are very expensive due to production capacity, and are far less cost-effective than water and coal. Therefore, except for some necessary items, such as communication devices, other steam engines should still use water and coal as the main ones.

In his previous memory, Luo Yin had seen many small steam engines.

Although the economy, technology and other levels of the Stocato United Kingdom are not as good as those of the Case Empire, there are still many rich people. This kind of convenient thing that can be bought with money will definitely be introduced. Of course, the price is much more expensive.

The store Luo Yin came to was the largest communicator store in Qiongbicheng.

"Hello, sir, ma'am, may I help you?"

As soon as I walked in, a beautiful orc girl came over.

You may not come here to buy a communicator, you may come here to buy "fuel", it may be for after-sales service, or you may just come to take a look, so employees usually ask first.

"Hello, please introduce me to the communicator."

Luo Yin spoke directly.

"Okay sir, come with me."

The employees took Luo Yin and Misha to a glass display cabinet. There were different models of communicators inside. Because this thing is relatively expensive, people generally don't get started directly.

Luo Yin looked at these communicators. They were all similar in shape, mainly consisting of a 30 cm by 20 cm square base, plus a microphone, an earpiece and a small steam engine.

The complex lines, exquisite gears, and steam spurting out from time to time give it an alternative aesthetic.

After listening to the employee's introduction, Luo Yin didn't waste any time and said directly:

"This is what I need, help me put it on."

"Ah? Sir, please wait a moment!"

The employees were a little unresponsive.

She has sold several communicators before, but the customers are basically all kinds of comparisons and entanglements. This is the first time she has seen someone like Luo Yin who is so decisive.

"good."

Luo Yin nodded.

The reason why he was so decisive was because Luo Yin had already set a budget for himself, and within this budget, only this communicator met the conditions.

His goal is also very simple. He just needs to be able to make phone calls normally. As for the craftsmanship, materials and the like, it doesn't matter.

Although he has money in his hands, he is still relatively restrained in spending it. For example, there is no need for something like a gold-plated intercom at a sky-high price in the store.

An hour later, Luo Yin and Misha came out of the store.

Misha is holding a large wooden box in her hands.

It contains a communication device, instructions, steam stone, burning sand and other items.

This communicator is one of the cheapest ones. It cost Luo Yin more than 3,000 yuan in total. In addition to expensive steam stones and burning sand, this thing also requires money to connect the phone line, which is given to Qiong every month.

Bills paid by Betcom, etc. are all a huge expense.

After leaving the store, Luo Yin bought some daily necessities before going home.

He only spent less than 10,000 yuan on the 240,000 yuan loan. After all, he was not just enjoying it. He also had to plan carefully what industry or business to invest in in order to maximize his benefits.



Green Tree Manor.

In a luxuriously decorated bedroom, a slim figure in cool clothes was lying on the bed. There was a small table in front of her, and the table was filled with all kinds of red wine.

"Alas~ It doesn't have that taste..."

Novia Charlie looked at the wine in front of him, sighed, and lowered his ears.

As a person who loves wine, she has fun every day without drinking, but today, for the first time, she hates wine. Of course, this hate refers to the wine in front of her.

It all started from last night.

Yesterday, the reception she held officially started here. Although the reception lasted for three days, she happened to be free recently, so she attended on the first night.

The process was not as expected. There was a lot of red wine sent, but there was almost none that she could appreciate.

After all, they are just a bunch of people trying their luck, and we can't expect them to make any good wine.

Although before the dinner started, her sommelier told her that there was a superb red wine today that would definitely suit her taste, and she might be able to keep it in advance.

The meaning of keeping it in advance was that she would not let it appear in the banquet hall to share it with others, and she would just keep it for herself.

But who is Novia? She has been drinking for so many years, what kind of good wine has she not drunk? He, Novia, is not a stingy person.

Novia didn't follow the sommelier's advice. But she wasn't stupid either. Being praised so highly by the sommelier showed some characteristics.

Afterwards, although Novia did not take away the wine in advance, she still kept the wine with her, and she was ready to share it with everyone later.

But as the banquet progressed, it became clear that no one was interested in the unknown wine, and she forgot about it.

After the banquet, she remembered that she had not tasted the wine recommended by the sommelier, so she had the wine delivered to her room.

At this time, Novia had drunk a lot of wine - mainly her own wine. Her own wine tasted good and had a relatively high alcohol content, which was much better than the wine brought by the guests.

She was already a little tipsy. Although she was still far from being drunk, sleeping in this state was very comfortable. So Novia took a hot bath and fell asleep.

At night, I was woken up by the urge to urinate. I got up to go to the toilet and felt a little thirsty. Novia just took a wine bottle and poured a glass of wine to quench my thirst.

The wine in this jug is none other than Luo Yin's wine.

As a result, Novia suddenly woke up, and she tasted it again in disbelief.

hiss!

What kind of wine is this!
