1835: Change with each passing day
"Can you really fly?" Min Ruoxi, who was breastfeeding, looked up at her husband sitting aside, and said in surprise: "Can you take people to the air?"
Qin Feng nodded repeatedly: "Of course, it's not just one person, but many people."
Min Ruoxi was about to speak, but found that her man's eyes were staring at a certain part of her, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed: "Where are you looking at?"
"Look at my son's breastfeeding!" Qin Feng burst into laughter.
Min Ruoxi blushed and turned her back to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng laughed loudly: "It's an old couple, and you have given birth to several children. What's wrong with you? It's strange, others have gotten out of shape. How long have you been pregnant? You actually have recovered your figure? Do you still remember Wang Yueyao back then? How fat is it? Later, she suffered a lot and lost weight. There is also the wife of the wild dog. After giving birth to a few children, she can still find the appearance of the past? She even gave birth to a wild dog and said she likes her current beauty and beauty. Hahaha, the beauty and beauty and beauty? The wild dog can think of that kind of word, but Xu Yu taught him himself?"
"Do you only focus on these all day long?" Min Ruoxi said annoyedly: "Where are you talking about airships? Where did you go?"
"Okay, talk about airship." Qin Feng laughed and moved a stool to sit opposite Min Ruoxi.
"Flying to the sky, it must feel good. Let me go to the City of Power and let them take me to the sky to see it." Min Ruoxi said to her eyes: "Since I was a child, I envied the birds flying around freely in the sky."
"If you want to fly, Xu Lai and the others will definitely not dare to let you go up." Qin Feng shook his head and said, "It is still dangerous, and the technology is not very mature, especially the hydrogen used now, which is still very dangerous."
"Since there is danger, you still ask them to do various experiments? If you fall down, you will die!" Min Ruoxi frowned slightly.
"What are you doing without danger?" Qin Feng raised his eyebrows, "You will fall down when riding a horse, you will encounter wind and waves when riding a boat, and you will fall when walking? Even if you sit in the house, the house may collapse! The various limit experiments that are about to be conducted are to find where the limits of the data of the airship are. Then we will have detailed data in various aspects, and then improve the various weaknesses of the airship in the future to raise the safety factor to the highest."
"In other words, this kind of extreme experiment is really possible to die." Min Ruoxi said.
"Yes." Qin Feng nodded and said, "What's wrong with you? You didn't care much about these things before, and you even taught me a lesson that you shouldn't be a woman."
Min Ruoxi was silent for a moment and handed the child in her arms to Qin Feng: "After having the third brother, for some reason, his heart became a little weak."
Holding the child in his arms, Qin Feng looked at the third brother who was already asleep with his little mouth smacked, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "My heart is getting harder and harder now."
"I'm still feeling guilty about the Manila incident?" Min Ruoxi whispered.
"What Ning Zeyuan did in Pattaya can actually be called a genocide policy, and this was exactly what I instructed." Qin Feng said: "Now we know that there are only 100,000 people in Pattaya who died, and as many as 100,000 young and strong people were sold to the Ming Dynasty, and Pattaya can basically be called extermination."
"So do you regret naming the third brother Qin Shu?"
Qin Feng shook his head: "I don't regret it. The Ming Dynasty has tens of millions of people. I can do anything for their happiness."
Min Ruoxi smiled and said, "That's it. You are the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. What's this? A general's success will make thousands of bones bleed. You are the emperor of a country and will soon become the master of this continent. The seat of the founding emperor is not built with blood. What's important is what your purpose is right? For the benefit of millions of people, why should you care about the sacrifice of a small Yi tribe?"
Qin Feng waved his hand, "I understand, I won't talk about this anymore, let alone say it in front of my son. Do you know? The Academy of Sciences is now studying putting a steam engine on the airship. Once it is successful, the speed will increase exponentially. At that time, if you want to go back to Shangjing, it will be simple. Perhaps it will be enough to get from Yuejing to Shangjing."
"It's really that fast?"
"Maybe it will be a little faster!" Qin Feng nodded affirmatively.
"I have been pregnant with my third brother for more than half a year, and I am really unfamiliar with things outside. Our Ming Dynasty can really be described as changing with each passing day!" Min Ruoxi sighed.
"Then let's go out with me this time?" Qin Feng said with a smile.
“Where to go?”
"Luo Yishui is coming back." Qin Feng said.
"Is our Kaihai Hou back coming back?" Min Ruoxi smiled with a pursed lips, "Are you going to greet him?"
"Of course." Qin Feng said: "We must be given enough face. It's not just that he gave up Manila, which saved us a lot of trouble. Even for the sake of the friendship that year, it was my duty to go to Baoquan to greet him personally. The Luo family still had a very important position in the minds of the Yue people back then."
"How many people from the Ming Dynasty remember the Yue Kingdom?" Min Ruoxi asked back.
"You can't just say you can't remember it. After all, the Luo family died too tragically." Qin Feng said: "Even now, the street storytellers still compile these things into jokes. The Luo family is already synonymous with loyalty. People from the capital who have done something overseas are not aware of what Luo Yishui did overseas, but as the last member of the Luo family, I think he will be welcomed when he comes back. Now all the people in the Ming Dynasty are rich. After becoming rich, they will be a little nostalgic and miss some people and things from that year."
"Don't you think you need to be alert for such a thing?"
"What's there to be wary of!" Qin Feng laughed, "How about it, will you go? Wang Yueyao and his wife will go!"
"Go, why not? Just go and see how powerful the steam artillery warships of our Ming Navy are. They can actually wipe out hundreds of warships in Pattaya with six warships in the Manila waters." Min Ruoxi laughed.
"It won't disappoint you." Qin Feng said: "The Da Chu is already outfitting, and you will see the most powerful warship of the Ming Dynasty, a brand new warship that is stronger than the Taiping."
Three days later, Qin Feng and his wife, Shu Chang and his wife boarded the steam train to Baoquan Port.
"Is it safe to leave at night?"
"It won't disturb people when you leave at night." Qin Feng explained: "The speed of the car will be slower at night, and the lighting problem of the steam train when driving at night has been solved."
Shu Chang continued: "Don't worry, the Queen is on the front of the car, there are more than ten car lamps. These car lamps can illuminate within a dozen meters of tens of meters in a row like daytime. Moreover, the driver is a master who has run hundreds of times on this line, and can drive the car safely to the destination with his eyes closed."
"What kind of lamp is a gas lamp? Why don't you install a few lamps in the palace?" Min Ruoxi looked at Qin Feng in confusion.
"In fact, it's installed, but it's not necessary." Qin Feng smiled and said, "It's installed on the palace city. This kind of steam lamp equipped with special glass devices is also called a searchlight, and the light is extremely strong."
"I've seen the one you said, but what's the difference between a car light?"
"Of course there are differences. The light emitted by the steam lamp is many times stronger than that of an ordinary candle. "Qin Feng said: "This kind of lamp is first filled with oil and gas, and then gasified by high temperature and high pressure when passing through the plate on the copper tube next to the heating body. Then it is sprayed from the nozzle to the yarn cover that is specifically soaked in special liquid to burn to a very high temperature. It can emit white light that jumps, like a small sun, and then cast it out by the glass projection device."
"I don't understand!" Min Ruoxi shook her head and said.
"Empress, you will see it when the train is set aside later." Wang Yueyao smiled and said, "This kind of lamp is indeed extremely bright, but it is only recently made. It has not been popularized yet, and even the army has not had time to install it. This kind of lamp will inevitably create a huge market in the future. Now I am striving to popularize it into the army and promote it in the folk! Your Majesty, and the airship, I think it can be promoted in the folk simultaneously? At that time, even if the Empress wants to eat fresh vegetables and fruits from Jiangnan, we can quickly transport it back to the Empress, ensuring that it will be fresh and green when you go to the capital!"
Qin Feng laughed and said, "There is no problem, but if you want to do what you said, you must wait until the steam engine can be successfully applied on the airship!"
"Really?" Wang Yueyao suddenly became excited: "The military and the Ministry of State Security both said that it is easy to leak secrets among the people, and they all opposed it."
"The same principle as steam engines, even if the people of Qi get airships from the people, they cannot make them with their current industrial capabilities." Qin Feng said disdainfully: "So, there is nothing to worry about."
"Since Your Majesty said that, I have some business plans for airships here, and I just take this opportunity to report to Your Majesty." Wang Yueyao said happily.
"Stop!" Qin Feng waved his hands repeatedly, "Today we are only talking about personal friendship, regardless of business. Did you not see Shu Fengzi's face, which is longer than a horse's face? Today, our two families are also on a trip. Whether you go back to your carriage to have a heart-to-heart talk or drink lightly with our couple, it's just about business."
Wang Yueyao looked back at Shu Chang, and Shu Chang immediately turned into a smiling face, "I think it's better to go back to her car."
Wang Yueyao snorted coldly: "Just not talking about business, I have some women's words to say to the Queen!"
Qin Feng laughed a long time, stood up, and patted Shu Chang's shoulder: "Did you hear it? Let's go to your car and have a few drinks. How long has it been? Have we both drunk alone?"
"It's time!" Shu Chang thought for a while.
"Then why are you hesitating? Let's go!" Qin Feng said.
When the two stepped out of the car, the sound of the rumbling train started. Min Ruoxi looked out of the window. Sure enough, in front of the front of the car, more than a dozen lights shone brightly in the road ahead.
