What happened in the eight-year summer of Qianlong, which is called "the hottest summer in history"? How hot is it?

At that temperature, let's exaggerate, we can bake all the stones into noodles. Can we say without exaggeration? The tin pot that Qianlong used to iron wine was too hot to keep the hardness of the metal-it melted.

The white ivory chopsticks used for eating are almost as soft as coarse noodles. If you boil them in a pot, they will really become noodles, and you can't even lift them.

It has been recorded that even if you squat in the so-called shade under the city wall, your skin feels like burning iron and it hurts.

This heat wave swept through Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong and other places. And the scope is beyond your imagination.

In July, the number of people who died in Katanga fever in Beijing alone reached an astonishing 1 1400.

This is a natural disaster!

Speaking of this, it is estimated that someone will ask: "What is the temperature in this situation?"

You don't believe it, 44.4℃, at this temperature, you put an omelet on the stone, which is not raw.

Speaking of this, it is estimated that someone will ask: "How do you know? There are also zero-sum integers here, so there will be a thermometer? "

Stop it, you really guessed right. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, many Europeans who traveled across the ocean liked to visit the land of China. It happened that there was a French missionary this year. He brought an old thermometer from Nagata, France when he came, so he had such a record.

In this case, ordinary people have nowhere to hide. Because this hot weather is often accompanied by drought, he is also short of water to cool down.

Step on this earth with one foot and fly with a pungent sound! You can't stay in the sun for one more second, and you can bake people in minutes. As for sweat, you won't have it at all, and it will evaporate when you come out. If you are in a hurry, you can't leave during the day, but at night.

If you have a pool of water around you, you will want to soak in the water when you see the sky, but this is also an extravagant hope.

Take the Forbidden City during the Qianlong period as an example. Many deep wells have bottomed out. I feel that the air is dry and the water is sucked clean. He can't draw water from this shallow well at all. Blow a small wind with a fan, it's all hot and hot!

However, this kind of weather has little influence on life in Gan Long. In his Forbidden City, there are a lot of ice bumps frozen in the first year, which are left in the house to enjoy the cool. At worst, there is a maid to put aside a small wind.

But people can't stand it. Later, the governor of Shaanxi gave Gan Long a passbook, asking to open the freezer and give people some ice.

As a result, Gan Long didn't promise. After all, he doesn't have enough weather himself. Hey! What's going on!

When sleeping at night, the rich hold Mrs. Zhu, and the poor are too hot to hide.

The ivory seats where people sleep at night in Qianlong are nothing but the summer heat in chengde mountain resort. So this year, people are called suffering. Since then, there have been years of extremely high temperatures in China, but none of them are as high as those in the eight years of Qianlong, and the highest temperature is 42.6 degrees in 1942.

Everyone is watching that the temperature is not much lower than 44.4 degrees, but please remember that every time the air gets higher, the changes are amazing. For example, the human body has a high fever of 4 1.7 degrees, which can induce meningitis. If the temperature is lower than this, the human body can resist slightly, but for a short time. Once this temperature is reached, no one knows the consequences. This is why children are most afraid of having a fever, and the whole family is anxious to get angry when it burns. The heat is really unbearable!
