The reason is that Zhao Jun didn't know the ancient name of tungsten.

This resulted in the Song Dynasty being completely in the dark in this field, and it needed to constantly test various materials before it could find tungsten filament.

As a result, even though the Song Dynasty discovered electricity very early, it was unable to quickly apply electricity to daily life.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Zhao Jun is not omnipotent.

Moreover, science is often produced by accidental factors, and many Western scientists often regard science as theology and miracles. It is not so easy to turn this accident into inevitability, and we still need to keep trying.

The only advantage of the Song Dynasty is that there are people who give them clear guidance, so they can avoid many detours and avoid losing their way in unknown areas.

The main reason why we can now start building power plants is that the School of Chemistry has developed vacuum technology using mercury.

At the same time, after many experiments, they finally discovered that a metal called heavy stone dissolved in water could provide long-term lighting after being powered on, and the light was not strong and dazzling, just like the incandescent lamps of later generations.

Zhao Jun was sure that this heavy stone should be tungsten.

Electricity has only just begun to be widely used in our daily lives.

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty. Please give your regards for me. All your research achievements will be recorded in history and become the cornerstone of the Song Dynasty's standing in the world."

After Zhao Jun finished speaking, he added, "This sentence must be conveyed to the emperor exactly as it is."

"yes."

Wang Shouzhong responded with his head lowered and his eyes submissive.

I don't know why.

Every time the prefect praises the emperor like this, the emperor always feels full of motivation.

Even though Wang Shouzhong believed that those experiments and research were full of unknowns and difficulties, the officials were still happy to do them.

After distributing the ice jelly, Wang Shouzhong and other eunuchs withdrew.

Some people in the room were eating white jelly, some took a bite because they thought it was too sweet, and others continued to correct official documents.

For such a huge empire, the prime ministers had to deal with a mountain of official duties every day.

Although the Constitutional Council is currently responsible for setting the direction, the actual operation is still left to the departments to formulate and plan.

However, under this system, the Constitutional Yuan is also required to control whether the direction is correct, and it is also a daily task to review the development progress submitted by various departments.

After everyone finished slurping their white jelly, Zhao Jun stood up and said, "Okay, it's time to start the meeting. Today's meeting is very important."

"What is it?"

"Interesting, is there anything else that matters to Han Long?"

"That's quite curious."

When everyone heard that a meeting was about to start, they stopped what they were doing and stood up to go to the meeting room.

They asked, smiling as they walked.

Seeing everyone was curious about what the big deal was, Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Western Xia should be destroyed."

In an instant, everyone's breathing became rapid.
