Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 59 Alternating Current

Huang Jiang was sitting in his seat, holding the drawing of the alternator that Nicholas handed him. Sitting next to him was Thors, who looked embarrassed.The sailor was probably embarrassed that one of his hangovers had caused "trouble" in the Yellow River.

Nicholas was holding a piece of chalk and writing furiously on a blackboard. A series of formulas that seemed familiar to Huang Jiang emerged from his writing. Although the symbols in the formulas were different due to the two world languages, this is how science is. When it is simplified to a certain extent, a unified aesthetic will be born. No matter how you replace the letters, it is unlikely to change the meaning contained in it.

Huang Jiang's eyelids twitched. Nicholas was explaining to him in detail the principles of alternating current that he already knew. However, in order to maintain his aboriginal character, Huang Jiang had to show his advanced understanding of these things in front of outsiders. Technological ignorance.

So... Huang Jiang now feels like he is back in high school class again.

Nicholas spoke very immersedly, and Huang Jiang could see that this 20-year-old boy wanted to seize this rare opportunity.His introduction about alternating current gradually came to an end and he began to talk about the safety of alternating current.

A series of familiar terms from Huangjiang popped out of Nicholas's mouth, and then quickly merged into knowledge that he seemed to understand.

Every new vocabulary word gave Huang Jiang a headache. He rubbed his brows. It seemed that he could no longer go back to the days when he was a student who purely pursued knowledge.

Thors seemed to interpret Huang Jiang's behavior as impatience, which made him even more embarrassed, but after all, Nicholas was his friend, and he introduced him.

Thors crossed his hands and twirled his thumbs constantly, thinking about how to politely refuse Nicholas's words.

Nicholas's story finally ended. He put down the chalk, put his hands in front of him, and faced this moment that would determine his future life.

"I'm very sorry..." Thors stood up first, and he was only halfway through, when Nicholas' face turned pale.

Huang Jiang grabbed Thors and he stood up and walked to the blackboard.

Looking at the formulas on the blackboard, he was left with a nostalgic sigh, but this emotion was quickly replaced by more considerations. As a traveler on the earth, he naturally preferred alternating current, but as a deacon, he considered There are more things to do.

"I have benefited a lot from what you said just now." Huang Jiang said to Nicholas on the side, "But there are a lot of engineering matters involved, I can't take risks, you can guarantee to create enough to satisfy the entire Jialan A large generator set to meet the island’s power needs?”

Nikolai's expression changed drastically from frustrated and lost to overjoyed, and he confidently stated that there was no problem with this matter.

"One more thing." Huang Jiang raised his index finger, "I personally am very willing to believe that alternating current can be used safely, but to use it in reality, everyone must believe in its safety. Do you have any ideas about this?"

"The harm caused by electricity to people is mainly due to the large current flowing through the human body..." Nicholas said.

"Okay, let's do this." Huang Jiang stroked his stubble and thought about the remaining earth knowledge in his mind, "You can design a high-voltage, high-frequency but low-current power generation equipment, and equipped with corresponding safety facilities , and then show the world the safety of alternating current. However, there may be location risks in this kind of thing..."

"In order for alternating current to embellish human civilization." Nicholas showed a scientist's innocent smile, "I'm happy to do this, and I already have an idea about it."

"A talented person, take good care of him." Seeing Nicholas packing things over there, Huang Jiang came to Thors' side. This sailor gentleman was not suitable for this kind of situation. He still had a look of confusion on his face. .

"Using another power system alone...isn't it...after all, the little Morgan is behind Emerson." Towers replied. "It's very risky, but it's worth it." Huang Jiang said, "The most beneficial thing in the world is to formulate rules. Now the Federation is at the transition between two eras. The introduction of alternating current cannot be stopped, and the difference between alternating current and direct current is Conflict is bound to come. I am happy to bet on this matter that will determine the future of the Federation."

"But this is a business alliance after all..."

"Morgan cannot fully represent the Merchant Alliance." Huang Jiang thought, "I remember that there is also a big director in the Merchant Alliance who started his career from kerosene. His name is Rockfield. The emergence of electric lights will destroy his business empire."

Before the internal combustion engine existed.

Huang Jiang added such a premise in his mind.

"I think he would be very happy to replace the seemingly safe direct current with something that looks very dangerous." Huang Jiang grinned and said to Toles, "I want to set up a General Electric Company, but I don't know Mr. Toles Are you interested in this?"

Thors' heart moved. Sailors are creatures made of adventure.

"Admiral!" Firefly shouted and jumped in from outside, and immediately rushed into Huang Jiang's arms.

"I heard from Sister Lexington that you came to Jimu Island alone." Firefly rubbed Huang Jiang's clothes and raised his head, his mouth bulging, "This is very dangerous. You don't know how worried I am about the Admiral. .”

"Isn't this to prove to the outside world that the sea area of ​​Jialan Island is safe?" Huang Jiang rubbed Firefly's hair and explained with a smile, "Is there any more convincing evidence than the deacon walking alone? And It’s not like there’s no ship girl following me, there’s also a big mackerel following me in the sea.”

"Where's the big mackerel?" Firefly let go of Huang Jiang and asked curiously.

"Still playing in the sea." Huang Jiang shook his head helplessly, "This guy is uncomfortable on land. As soon as he reaches the sea, he feels like he is at home, and he disappears without a trace."

There was some movement outside the door. Listening carefully, it was Andersen's voice.

"Haha, Huang Jiang, I saw your announcement on the forum." Antu pushed the door open and walked in. He saw Nicholas who was tidying up the scene, and doubts flashed across his face for a second. , but soon turned his attention back to Huang Jiang, "I heard that you crossed the sea area between Jialan Island and Jimu Island alone, you are quite bold."

"Isn't this a message to the outside world that Jialan Island is safe?" Huang Jiang said, "I also asked Thors to help and published the voyage in some newspapers."

This time, most of the people who followed the same boat on the Yellow River were reporters from various newspapers.

"I don't think so. Recently, there are always mirages drifting from the west wind near Jimu Island." Andu looked at the Yellow River with an inexplicable expression.

"Don't worry, everything is under control." Huang Jiang also showed a meaningful smile.
