What are the scientific and technological achievements in the Kangxi era?
Huang Lvzhuang, a native of Yangzhou, was born in the 13th year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1656), and made the most outstanding scientific and technological invention in Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty. This person is smart since childhood, never forgets to read, likes to invent and create, and especially loves crafts and crafts. He once wrote a book, A Brief Introduction to Wonders, which specifically recorded his scientific and technological achievements, but it was later lost.
During the Kangxi period, Huang Lvzhuang developed bicycles. This kind of bicycle has a wheel in front and a wheel in the back. The cyclist can shake the axle by hand to make the bicycle move forward automatically. This is the earliest bicycle in the world, about 100 years earlier than the wooden bicycle made in Sifrak, France. However, this invention was not popularized in China, so that bicycles were imported from foreign countries in the late Qing Dynasty and called "rickshaws", which was ridiculous!
1683, Huanglvzhuang also made the world's first hygrometer, named "dehumidifier", which can "predict sunny or cloudy days". If this invention is applied, the weather forecast in China will be 170 years earlier than that in France! It was more than 70 years after Huang Lvzhuang invented the "dehumidifier" 1856 that France first established a weather station.
After Huang Lvzhuang invented the hygrometer, he also invented the "Ruiguang Mirror", which is the earliest searchlight and the earliest heating lamp in the world. "Biographies of Huang Lvzhuang and New Records of Yuchu": "It is very useful to shine at night with light for several miles. In winter, people sit in the light and get warm all over, just like in the sun. " 100 years later, Europeans made similar artifacts in 1779. If this achievement is used in the military, the night combat capability of China's army will be greatly enhanced.
In addition, Huang Lvzhuang also invented toys, water methods, detectors and making machines, and made "real painting" (the earliest robot in the world), "automatic play", "self-driving summer fan" and "hot and cold detector". Only "New Records of Yuchu" recorded 27 kinds of his inventions.
It can be seen that during the Kangxi period, Huang Lvzhuang had invented the earliest robots, mechanical fans, mechanical air conditioners and natural heaters in the world. His invention predated Edison by nearly 200 years. Edison was born all over the world, but Huang Lvzhuang was unknown, all thanks to Kangxi.
Huang Lvzhuang's scientific and technological inventions were so outstanding that they disappeared in history after he was 27 years old. No one knows his life or death, and no one knows what he did. But one thing is certain, Kangxi certainly didn't appoint him. Because there is no record of Huang Lvzhuang in Qing history, these inventions of Huang Lvzhuang were not popularized in Qing dynasty.
It was a big mistake of Kangxi and his descendants to suppress talents and curb the development of science and technology, which directly led to the decline of China and made western countries seize the opportunity to become stronger. If Kangxi is smarter and employs scientists like Huang Lvzhuang, China's scientific and technological level will be one or two hundred years ahead of the world, and China will always maintain its hegemonic position as a superpower. Who dares to call western countries big countries? Who dares to make trouble in China?
