    Thank you, Wang Xiucai from Zuiyan Qianfeng Ding, eqy brothers for your rewards I never expected that these two helpless gangsters from Hangzhou City, who had no idea what kind of incense they burned in their last lives, could actually be summoned by Shangfu and talk so much.  if.  In the future, they will be regarded as Wen Fei, Shang¡¯s father¡¯s subordinates. Who will dare to provoke them in Hangzhou from now on?  At this time, a Taoist priest in green robe came over with a wooden tray and said with a smile: "You two are Chen San and Song Wu, right?" The two nodded quickly, before they had time to speak.  Then I heard the Taoist priest say: "This is what the Heavenly Master has given to you!" As he spoke, he uncovered the red cloth on the wooden plate, and saw two piles of two holy coins neatly numbered on it.  I'm afraid there are not as many as a hundred.  It dazzled their eyes.  Song Wu stretched out his hand to get the money.  But Chen San kicked him from below.  With a wink, Song Wu understood, and hurriedly withdrew his hands and followed Chen San to kneel down and kowtow gratefully in the direction of the Wen Da Celestial Master: "Young men, like cows and horses, can hardly repay the Celestial Master's great kindness!" That Taoist priest  Smiling slightly, he took the performance of these two gangsters into his mind.  He said: "The steamship is a sacred object brought back by Father Shang from the fairy world. Only ordinary people can board the steamship. Only devout believers of my religion can board the steamship" The two people were surprised and happy when they heard it, and they didn't know that they were  What kind of incense was burned in my previous life?  To be able to work on the steamer that got off that day?  Doesn¡¯t that mean that we can also get some celestial energy?  Seeing Chen San, Song and Wu Shiqu leaving, Wen Fei thought to himself.  Hangzhou today is a port city.  It should not be difficult to recruit sailors, but it is not that easy to recruit sailors to drive steamships.  The most optimistic estimate.  I'm afraid it will take several months, right?  As for the issue of loyalty, Wen Fei has no worries.  Now he has achieved great success in the Northern Song Dynasty.  And with the power of religious brainwashing, there is no problem with this.  The problem is that Wen Fei wants more now.  He had not had much interest in introducing technology and knowledge into the Northern Song Dynasty.  After all, he is a magician and does not need science and technology to undermine himself.  But now that Master Wen has become the general trend, especially since his own cultivation has reached the level of interfering with real matter, there are even fewer concerns about the introduction of technology.     actually.  Wen Fei had long felt that the matter of gunpowder causing catastrophe was not unsolvable.  It¡¯s just that Master Wen Da was not too serious about introducing various science and technologies, so he put it aside.  And now Wen Fei¡¯s path has been established.  Wen Fei was much less wary of the introduction of science and technology into the Northern Song Dynasty's time and space.  The key question now is how to organically combine science and technology with Taoist teachings.  Since the Great Dao is truth and law, it should naturally include science and technology!  Wen Fei just thought about these questions for a moment. He really had too many things to do in this Northern Song Dynasty time and space.  These things.  It has to be done step by step.  Now Wen Fei is more important.  But it is to reform Taoism and establish a more complete and strict organization.  This can provide more important help for your own path.  Thinking of Yang Guishan and Neo-Confucianism, Wen Fei sneered.  Whether it's Qing Bancheng and Li Zhongjun, or the two little guys Chen San and Song Wu.  They are all useful people, but neither Yang Guishan nor Neo-Confucianism seems to be of any use to Master Wen.  It¡¯s just obvious.  There is a kind of person who is called a person who fails more than succeeds.  For example, villains, of course, many times.  The so-called gentleman and the villain are similar in this regard.  In the eyes of Heavenly Master Wen Da, Yang Guishan, who calls himself a disciple of a saint and has a gentleman's family style, is a useless guy.  But Yang Guishan himself doesn't think so.  That night when he returned home, Old Master Yang suppressed his shock at the treasure presented by the Chao God during the day, and ignored his old eyesight.  I began to write letters under the dim oil lamp, one after another, sending them to all over the world.  Soon the desperate counterattack of the collusion of Neo-Confucianism disciples, or the desperate attempt to jump over the wall will begin.  But all this was soon known to Heavenly Master Wen Da.  But all this was not taken seriously by Heavenly Master Wen Da.  After all, Neo-Confucianism is now a marginal knowledge even among Confucians.  Far less beautiful than later generations.  Now Heavenly Master Wen Da is focused on something else. He has returned to modern time and space.  A series of strange-looking steamships are now standing on a secret dock.  For the modern shipbuilding industry, building several thousand-ton ships is just like playing.  In China, the underwater cycle of 300,000-ton ultra-large oil tankers has shrunk from the initial 303 days.as short as 38 days.  And place an order in the name of a company affiliated to a multinational company.  In this small shipyard, it only took a short two or three months to build these ten thousand-ton ships.  The most time-consuming one is the steam turbine.  It was already inexplicable that this small shipyard had taken orders to build several 500-ton steam river cruisers due to inexplicable personal connections.  No one thought that those foreign companies would also go crazy.  Actually, ten sea ships were built at once.  Well, a thousand-ton ship can only be considered a small boat at best.  But this steam turbine is weird enough. ???????????????? But this idea, no matter how weird things happen, doesn¡¯t it happen?  There are also people who use wooden wind sails to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Who knows if they are some prodigal sons with funny brains and no place to spend their money. Now they are playing with steam engines?  Isn¡¯t there a saying now called steampunk?  Anyway, the people at the shipyard are not too curious about building these ships.  And because of the price, these steam engines have been reprocessed. Although they can still burn coarse fuel or even firewood, their power has increased a lot. They can run at "high speed" of more than ten knots at sea, and they will be more powerful.  Save fuel.  Speaking of which, the first batch of river boats built by Heavenly Master Biwen were much better.  After all, the shipyard's help in building those river ships was just a favor to Zhang Cheng's family, but now it is a real business.  "My lord, are you satisfied with these ships?" Sitting in the car with the film, Jack said to Wen Fei with a smile: "Actually, if you need a steam ship, we can invite the best designers to design the best  A steam engine that is definitely not weaker than an internal combustion engine will come out! " Jack is an old man in his sixties, with some gray hair. He is wearing a well-tailored suit, showing extreme luxury in a restrained manner.  ¡°Perhaps he is the youngest among Wen Fei¡¯s apostles.  After Tom punished himself, he took over Tom's job.  Become an apostle serving the true God.  "Yes, with the financial resources and connections of the church, it is not difficult to build a better steam engine. But it is very difficult to make a steam engine that can burn coarse coal and wood!" Wen Fei said.  Although I don¡¯t know why Wen Fei used this boat to burn coarse coal or even wood.  But since Wen Fei didn't intend to say anything, he naturally didn't dare to ask.  He still remembered Tom's fate, and the glory of the true God could never be desecrated.  Wen Fei was also very satisfied. If he had relied on himself, it would have been difficult for him to transport these ships away without anyone noticing.  But with the backing of powerful forces, all this is much simpler.  As long as Heavenly Master Wen Da continued to explain in one sentence, he naturally had many capable men to get these ships to this dock in a way that would not attract attention.  "Tonight, let everyone leave." Wen Fei ordered: "I want to get rid of all these ships!" "Yes, my lord!" Jack was smart and did not ask Wen Fei how to get rid of them.  This made Wen Fei nod with satisfaction, and then he heard Jack say: "My Lord, there is something that requires your consent. Recently we are in contact with people from the Magic Stone Society and want to absorb them into our church!  " "Magic Stone Club?" Wen Fei frowned.  "Yes, the Magic Stone Society!" Jack explained: "The Philosopher's Stone, the Stone of Wisdom, the Fifth Element." "Alchemy?" Wen Fei asked.  "Yes, the Magic Stone Society is a mysterious organization of alchemists." Jack said in a very mysterious tone: "It is said that in BC, in ancient Egypt, furnaces were erected along the Nile River.  Thousands of alchemists worked there over and over again, trying to turn ordinary metals into gold, such as copper. Since all the work of the alchemists was confidential, alchemy was a secret.  Also known as a secret craft." Wen Fei was about to sneer, but Jack laughed and said, "But according to our research, Western alchemy was introduced to the Arab world from China, and then to the West around the eighth century.  "Oh?" Wen Fei was originally going to say what was so great about ancient Egyptian alchemy. How could it compare to Chinese alchemy?  But he didn't expect Jack to say that.  I couldn't help but be very interested.  "In the 8th century, alchemy appeared in Baoda, the capital of Arabia. The Arabs called it al-ki mystery ya. Among them, al is the article, and ki mystery ya may be derived from the ancient sound of the Chinese word "gold liquid" kim-  Ya changed, and the content not only included alchemy and medicine, but also the pursuit of an all-purpose elixir called al-iksir, hoping to use it to make people live longer and to use it to make gold.  "Jack continued to say in a dark and hoarse voice. ??"There is no theory of immortality in the Muslim world, and there is no recipe for making elixirs of longevity. Their alchemy is obviously related to China in terms of its ideological foundation and specific content. However, Arab alchemy has absorbed relevant knowledge from China and Europe.  Knowledge has developed both in theory and practice. Around the 12th century, Arab alchemy spread to Europe with the influence of Islam.  "
