Chapter 354 Oil Separator
Due to disasters such as drought, locust plague, and epidemic, she had to postpone her originally scheduled exams again and again. Although there are still many obstacles now, Jiang Tangtang feels that the current situation is much more optimistic than before.
The notice is sent out now and the exam will be held in February after the beginning of the year.
As usual, Jiang Tangtang called a meeting of the staff of the General Staff Office to discuss matters.
Wen Shunmin said, "Madam, I think the most important thing now is to move the capital and let the officials of the Ministry of Rites choose a suitable day for the emperor to be crowned emperor."
Other staff members of the Secretariat also expressed their agreement and suggested that Xiao Yu should be executed instead of being sent to the mine to do hard labor.
"In fact, if I put him in a kerosene mine to do hard labor, it would be almost the same as a death sentence."
This was the first oil separator built in imitation of modern ones, but due to the lack of modern technology and modern materials, she had no idea whether this oil separator could be used successfully.
Maybe the machine would explode while it was working, and then the people in the workshop would be blown to pieces without leaving even a bone.
And even if there is no explosion, the pollution caused by such a three-no experimental product is immeasurable.
If you stay in there for a long time, you will inevitably suffer from various diseases.
Therefore, those who were sent to work in the oil processing workshops were basically death row prisoners or something like that.
But people of that era didn’t know about explosions or pollution; they only knew that kerosene was a good thing.
The newly manufactured machine for separating kerosene is also a unique and good thing.
How could such a good thing be allowed to be handled by the remnants of the Great Zhou!
In order to prevent everyone from misunderstanding, Jiang Tangtang had to give them a science lecture.
After hearing Jiang Tangtang's words, the staff who had previously questioned Jiang Tangtang's decision were ashamed.
Jiang Tangtang also felt there was no need to rush the process of becoming emperor. The "bastard emperor" was already dead, and driving out the Western Rong people was only a matter of time. Why rush to become emperor in such a cold weather?
The final talent selection exam was taken over by Wen Shunmin, and after the meeting, Jiang Tangtang decided to return to Taiwan.
At that time, she just threw a few books to Cao Lesheng and had no expectation that he could make the thing.
She had no idea that he had managed to pull together a group of people and actually make something. She had to go back and take a look.
Although it rained for many days in a row in Taiwan, it is located in the subtropics and the temperature is still warm after the rain.
The day Jiang Tangtang came back, the rain stopped, which was rare.
Lu Jingcheng and his siblings had already received the news, and together with Su Shi, they went to the dock to wait for Jiang Tangtang.
Lu Tiantian was riding on Haihai. When she saw Jiang Tangtang, she immediately rushed over and shouted, "Mom!"
Now Haihai has grown into a huge tiger and can run very fast.
In the blink of an eye, the man and the tiger appeared in front of Jiang Tangtang.
Lu Tiantian had grown to Jiang Tangtang's chest height, but when she saw Jiang Tangtang, she still rushed over to hug her like she did when she was a child and said, "Mom, I miss you so much."
Su followed behind, scolding him, "You're already a grown-up girl, why are you still acting like a little girl, hugging your mother and acting like a spoiled child?"
Looking at the children, Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but feel that time passed very quickly.
As usual, she rubbed Lu Tiantian's head and said, "I miss you too."
Having said that, he looked at Lu Jingcheng and his brother.
After Lu Jingcheng returned from Nan'an, he had obviously grown a lot. After returning to the island, Su first gave him a farm to manage. After observing him for a period of time, he gradually delegated power. Now when Su is not on the island, he can handle the island's government affairs independently.
Maybe it's because he is so young but has to ask a group of people who are several years older than him to obey his orders, he looks more and more mature now.
This time when Jiang Tangtang came back, she was obviously full of joy, but the expression on her face was very restrained.
Looking at her cold son, Jiang Tangtang sighed in her heart that a soft and cute daughter is still better.
"Come on, let's go home and rest first." Su said, "The sky has cleared up since you came back. This is a good day."
Jiang Tangtang smiled and walked back with Su, asking about Lu Shili and Lu Zhixi on the way.
Speaking of Lu Zhixi, Su's face was full of joy, "Your sister is getting married!"
Jiang Tangtang actually had some suspicions in her mind, but she still feigned surprise and said, "Really? I wonder whose son he is?"
Su smiled and said, "That's General Xie. I originally wanted to hold a wedding for them this year, but it's been a bad year, with disasters happening one after another, so I decided to wait."
It’s okay, just wait.
If we wait until next year, my daughter will be able to get married with the ceremony of a princess.
"Congratulations, little sister." Jiang Tangtang said with a smile: "Has little sister come back recently?"
Lu Zhixi had been managing Lingnan's business, but this year, a series of disasters had severely impacted Lingnan's economy, and many businesses were struggling. Later, she began helping out with the aquaculture business.
Su said, "I sent her a message, and she said she would take time to come back in the next two days."
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Jiang Tangtang decided to send a message to Lu Shiyan as well, asking him to take some time to come back so that everyone could get together.
The family that used to be together every day, now is busy with their own things and can only get together twice a year.
However, she did not tell Su, and decided to give them a surprise when the time comes.
They said they hadn't seen each other for a long time and wanted to get together, but as soon as Jiang Tangtang got home, Cao Lesheng came over and asked Jiang Tangtang to see the oil separator.
"Mom, I want to go too. Can you take Tiantian with you?" Lu Tiantian has been extremely curious about the oil separator for a long time, but her brother has always prevented her from going. Now that she sees Jiang Tangtang going to see the oil separator, she hurriedly acts coquettishly to Jiang Tangtang.
"No, it's very dangerous, you can't go." Jiang Tangtang not only warned Lu Tiantian, but also repeatedly warned her two sons that no matter how curious they were or if something happened there, they should not go to the oil processing workshop.
Lu Tiantian snorted and said unconvincedly, "Then how can mother go?"
Jiang Tangtang looked at the little girl's unconvinced expression and smiled, "Do you really want to see it?"
Lu Tiantian thought her mother had changed her mind, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded heavily, "I really want to go, Mom, please take me with you."
Lu Jingheng didn't dare to act like a spoiled child like his sister. He could only look at Jiang Tangtang with a longing look, trying to make her soften her heart and change her mind.
But how could Jiang Tangtang be soft-hearted?
She gave the brothers and sisters some books she had copied by hand and said, "If you want to go, read the books first. Next time I will draw a lottery to answer the questions in the books. As long as you answer correctly, you can go with me."
Lu Jingheng hugged the book in his arms and said, "I'll read it now, Mom, you have to keep your word."
Jiang Tangtang said with a smile: "You still don't trust me? Then how about a pinky promise?"
Lu Jingheng refused arrogantly, "No, pinky promises are something only children do."
