Chapter 253 This old man is not serious(1/2)
The grenade production in Qiankou Village is in full swing. The sewing of hot air balloons has also mobilized the majority of women.
Although Ying Zheng asked Zhao Kun to watch the changes, he felt that it was better to be prepared for any trouble.
After all, only with a way out can we respond to changes in the same way as we remain unchanged.
Regarding the value of hot air balloons, Zhao Kun only discussed it with Wang Li and Jiang Chao. Apart from this, no one knows the specific function of hot air balloons.
Because of this, when Zhao Kun took Wu Cheng to the village committee compound and looked at the hot air balloons that had already hung a hanging basket, he was stunned.
In fact, the appearance of the hot air balloon is quite incredible.
People who have not learned about it carefully can easily be shocked by his appearance.
I only know that the hot air balloon is taller than the house, but I don’t know that there is nothing in the airbag, and the overall weight is only a hundred kilograms.
Wu Cheng stood in front of the hot air balloon, looked at it for a long time before he came to his senses, and asked Zhao Kun: "Young Master, can such a huge creature really bring people to heaven?"
"What?" Zhao Kun raised his eyebrows and quipped: "Do you have no confidence in this young master?"
Although Wu Cheng is a military general, his way of speaking and doing things is like a civil servant, extremely tactful.
But I heard him say, "This matter is too incredible. With my ability, I still cannot understand the wisdom of the young master. I hope the young master will forgive me."
"ha!"
Zhao Kun said "Ha" and laughed: "I know you speak well, so I'll say more in the future."
"If you don't understand anything, just ask!"
"Thank you, my son."
Wu Cheng bowed his hand, then walked up to look at the huge hot air balloon, and asked in confusion: "Young Master, how did this hot air balloon fly?"
"Of course, hot air balloons fly by hot air!"
"Does fuel be put in it?"
Wu Cheng said, and suddenly said, "During the Lantern Festival, Marquis of Pinyang once released the Kongming lantern. Looking at the shape of the hot air balloon, it was somewhat similar to the Kongming lantern. Could it be the same thing?"
"This is again..."
Zhao Kun raised his hand to hold his forehead. He had answered the questions about Kongming lanterns and hot air balloons many times, and did not want to explain them anymore, so he said directly: "You can understand it as a large Kongming lantern!"
Wu Cheng did not look back when he heard this, but looked at the hot air balloon and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said: "Since Kongming Lantern can succeed, this hot air balloon should be successful too..."
"I hope..."
Zhao Kun smashed it, smashed it, said, "There is nothing under the Kongming lantern, there is someone under the hot air balloon, I can't explain it."
"Young Master is talking about the person riding the hot air balloon?"
"Yes, Kongming lanterns have limited load capacity, and the hot air balloons can carry a little more."
Wu Cheng: "Then how much can this hot air balloon carry?"
"Eight or nine stones..."
Zhao Kun thought for a while and said, "It's time to find out how much it can be loaded."
"If it's eight or nine stones..." Wu Cheng frowned and said, "The two should be in a difficult situation."
“The difficulty is not the weight.”
Zhao Kun glanced at Wu Cheng and shook his head and said, "The real difficulty lies in manipulation..."
“Manipulative?”
Wu Cheng looked puzzled.
Zhao Kun smiled and said, "If two people are in a hot air balloon, one needs to be responsible for controlling the fire, the other needs to be responsible for observing obstacles, wind direction, wind speed, etc.."
"If used in military terms, you must also observe the ground situation to prevent being shot down by the enemy!"
"Can this thing be used in military affairs?" Wu Cheng looked at Zhao Kun in surprise.
Zhao Kun nodded: "If people can stand at a high altitude and look down at the entire earth, they can not only guard the army, but also detect the enemy situation for the army, this is indeed very military value."
Hearing this, Wu Cheng quickly understood the key, bowed to Zhao Kun, and then simply said: "Although there are still many problems, my subordinates must protect the hot air balloons for the young master until he rushes to the clouds!"
"Then... I'll thank you for your hard work these days."
"How dare you!"
Wu Cheng hurriedly said: "It is the honor of my subordinates to be able to help the young master protect such an important thing."
"Since that's the case, you will be responsible for the hot air balloon."
Zhao Kun raised his hand, then turned to look at the woman sewing the hot air balloon, and said, "Their wages are only a lot, not a little, and the food must be arranged properly."
Hearing this, the women immediately stopped their movements and smiled brightly at Zhao Kun.
They don’t say nice things, but they are all simple rural women. They are capable and virtuous and highly valued by the young masters.
This is Wu Cheng’s definition of women in Qiankou Village.
"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely take good care of them!"
"Others have their husbands, so you don't need to take care of them. Just do your part!"
Zhao Kun rolled his eyes and walked straight to the entrance of the village.
Wu Cheng looked at his back and scratched his head, thinking that he didn't all mean the same thing?
………
On the way back to the mansion from Qiankou Village, Zhao Kun kept thinking about how to face the First Emperor.
Although he has been in this era for more than half a year, he has never seen the First Emperor.
Anyway, he is also the son of the First Emperor.
A son has never met his father before. Although it is a nominal father-son relationship, it is also very nonsense.
"I don't know what the First Emperor looks like? Will it be the same as the tiger's mouth, sun horns, astringent, long eyes, and birds of prey described in "Wei Shu"?"
"If this is true, then the First Emperor would be extremely ugly and look sick!"
"Hey... I hope I won't surprise me..."
"Otherwise, the domineering First Emperor in my mind will be destroyed..."
Thinking of this, Zhao Kun unknowingly entered the city.
At this time, the city was thriving.
Perhaps it was because the First Emperor was in Pinyang, and the public security in Pinyang City was very good.
There is no forced buying and selling, nor quarrels and quarrels.
It feels very harmonious.
When Zhao Kun walked to the street near the mansion, an old man on the side of the road caught his attention.
"Old man, is this your first time in Pinyang? This white porcelain teacup is fired from Qiankou Village porcelain workshop. It is absolutely genuine. It is already very cheap to charge you five hundred yuan. You can't bargain anymore.
!”
In front of the vendor, the old man was buying tea cups, and the vendor owner was talking to the old man at this time.
The old man seemed a little hesitant and thought for a while, "Three hundred coins!"
"Old man, you are too cruel. This is the unique porcelain in the Qin Dynasty. Five hundred coins are already the bottom line!"
The vendor waved his hands, looking like he didn't want to pay attention to the old man, and said, "We can't make a lot of money in our small business, so you might as well go to another house to have a look!"
"Then you give me a honest price?"
The old man seemed to like the teacup very much, so he bargained with the stall owner.
The stall owner looked at him and said hesitantly: "It seems that you really like it, so let's do it. Four hundred and fifty dollars, no more low!"
"Three hundred and eighty dollars!"
"Oh, okay, okay, it's not easy to make money, but I think I have something to ask for and want to give some good gifts. If the boy cares about you again, it will seem a bit unkind!"
While making tea cups for the old man, the stall owner said reluctantly: "Tell me the truth, this white porcelain tea cup will make you at most ten money!"
Hearing this, the old man stroked his beard and smiled: "A good person will have good luck."
After saying that, he took out his purse and prepared to pay.
At this moment, a sudden sound rang out from behind him: "How to sell this teacup?"
"Um?"
The stall owner, who had just packed it, suddenly felt a hand appearing in front of him, and the teacup appeared in his hand instantly.
"This... this guest, do you want to buy this teacup too?"
The stall owner raised his head and looked at Zhao Kun in confusion.
Zhao Kun looked at the teacup and replied lazily: "Ann... take a look..."
Just watch it?
