Chapter 154: Interesting Succession to the Throne

"What about the long term?" Ran Qinghua asked.

"In the long run, you need to build a power station. There are wind power, solar power, hydropower, and thermal power. Thermal power generally uses coal to generate electricity."

"The simplest way I recommend is hydroelectric power generation, which is to build a dam on the river. On one side, it can generate electricity, and on the other side, the intercepted water can be used for irrigation, killing two birds with one stone."

"Then we built power stations, generated electricity, and then used lines to transmit the electricity to thousands of households, so that everyone could use electricity. But at this time, we still couldn't watch TV."

"I spent half a day building a power station, but I still can't use it to watch TV. What can I do with this electricity?" Ran Qinghua asked.

"It can be used for lighting! After our country had electricity, it was used for lighting and grinding rice and flour for a long time."

"Can you also grind rice and flour?"

"The rice and flour milling machine is much simpler than a television. The principle of this machine is very simple. We also have washing machines, blenders, sweepers, and everything can be powered by electricity in the future. For example, half of the tools in our kitchen need electricity."

"That's great. Using electricity can save a lot of energy. I know that the people working in the rice pounding room in the palace are all very strong, otherwise they can't do those jobs. You said there are also washing machines, so places like the laundry room can also be saved. This is also a hard job, especially in winter. It's really not a job for human beings. I saw it once when I was a child." Ran Qinghua's tone was full of yearning.

"Can all these be achieved? We just need to build a power station and develop some supporting facilities." Wang Yue felt that it was not that difficult.

"Can you help build it? Just from what you said just now, I know that we in Dayuan can't do it yet." If Ran Qinghua had to express hope, she would hope to build it today, but their country can't do it yet!

"We can't go to your place, but you can send people to learn our technology. We are about to open an academy to teach this knowledge. We will definitely teach you without reservation."

"Xiao Yue'er, are you kidding me? How can I teach others everything without reservation? I'm not greedy. I just want to teach us how to build a hydropower station. You can name your own price." Ran Qinghua said generously.

"We will teach you without reservation, but the technological gap between you and us is hundreds of years, so you need to learn one thing at a time. For example, I will teach you how to build a TV without reservation, but you don't have electricity, wires, or even plastic, let alone diodes, transistors, capacitors, or resistors. All you learn is how to build a TV, so it's useless."

"I understand. I will send someone to learn." Anyway, Xiao Yue'er hopes to send someone to learn.

"Don't worry, what you learn here are practical knowledge, without any empty talk. What we teach you can be put into production right away when you go back. It can even be said that what we teach is more practical than what we teach the people in our own dimension." Wang Yue said.

"You are joking again. Why are you not honest when teaching your own people, but you have to be honest when teaching us?" Ran Qinghua felt that Wang Yue was fooling people, and the kind of fooling that was not serious.

"I'm not kidding you, this is real. Because we don't need everyone here to repair power stations or build TVs. They just need to know the principles, performance, and other issues, and we can train them when we need them to build something."

“But you are different. You will start production right away, so what we teach you are the things you will use,” Wang Yue explained.

Ran Qinghua thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. It seemed that it was necessary to come here to study. Before, I thought that I could not learn anything real. Since the people in the supermarket were willing to teach, I must learn. If I learn, I will make money. Who would be stupid not to come?
"Then tell me what the requirements are for studying here! I'll go back and arrange for someone to come." Ran Qinghua asked. Wang Yue explained the specific enrollment requirements and the fee standards. Ran Qinghua felt that it was not expensive. This knowledge cannot be bought with money.

After talking about the academy, Ran Qinghua asked again: "Xiao Yue'er, you said that your grain yield per mu is 2,000 kilograms, is this true?"

"This is definitely true, but ordinary farmers can't do it. This is laboratory data. Ordinary farmers can only do 1,500 to 1,600."

"How did you do it? We in Dayuan have been working hard to develop agriculture for many years. I have used all my strength and tried every possible means to produce only 600 kilograms of wheat and rice."

Ran Qinghua was a capable emperor, and the lives of farmers had actually been greatly improved. Unless compared with modern times, the results were still impressive.

"It can reach 600 kilograms! How did you do it?" Wang Yue had contact with these people in the ancient plane and knew that many of them had very low production, 300 to 500 kilograms was considered a lot, and some were even only over 100 kilograms. So hearing 600 kilograms at this moment was really an eye-catching number.

"Is it very high?" Ran Qinghua asked.

"Compared to us, your yield per mu is really high. How did you do it?"

"In each generation, we select the best seeds and keep the best part. We must strictly follow the requirements and finally apply compost, base fertilizer and top dressing during the process." Ran Qinghua is very knowledgeable when it comes to farming.

"Sister Ran, have you ever farmed?"

"No, but I spent a long time in the fields. The methods I just mentioned were summarized by many veteran farmers. I watched them work, and finally the grain yield improved a bit," said Ran Qinghua.

"Sister Ran, are you from Dayuan?" Wang Yue was really curious. Could it be really what she thought?

"It's nothing. I am the emperor of Dayuan. My father is an emperor, and my grandfather is also an emperor. I have two brothers, but neither of them is qualified to be an emperor, so I am the third empress of our Dayuan." Ran Qinghua said.

"Sister Ran, that means there are two more empresses ahead. Can you tell me?" Wang Yue especially liked to hear this.

"If you want to hear it, I'll tell you! Our Emperor Taizu only had one daughter, and he didn't want his brother's son to inherit the throne, mainly because his brother's son was also a coward, so he used ruthless means to help his daughter succeed to the throne. Later, the empress's son was not as outstanding as her daughter, so in the end the empress helped her daughter inherit the throne. In this way, two generations of empresses were born in succession."

"The ministers in the court did not want a third female emperor, so they worked hard to train the son of the second female emperor. Through the efforts of the ministers in the court, the fourth emperor of the founding of the country was finally a man. For several consecutive dynasties, the ministers in the court worked together to train and recommend him. Therefore, the succession of the throne in our Dayuan was very smooth, and there was basically no major turmoil."

"As a result, when it came to my father's generation, my two brothers could not be trained at all. They were worse than ordinary people, so they had no choice but to accept it. I naturally became the third empress of our Dayuan."

"You guys in Dayuan are more yin than yang!"

"Yeah! A lot of people say that."
