Chapter 125: Outperforming others(1/3)
"Fei Xiong, I have one last question for my brother."
"Brother, tell me."
Young Master Liu raised the wine bag and took a sip of wine, then turned and looked at the steam engine experimental warehouse.
"Now, your Academy of Sciences has manufactured a complete steam engine.
Brother, I want to know how long it will take for the steam train that I have always wanted to see to actually run."
Wanyan Feixiong turned to look at Young Master Liu and said decisively: "To tell you the truth, as long as you give the order, the steam train can start running at any time."
Hearing Wanyan Feixiong's reply, Liu Dashao trembled, and quickly turned sideways to cast his gaze on Wanyan Feixiong.
"What did you say? You can do it anytime?"
Seeing Liu Mingzhi's surprised expression, Wanyan Feixiong chuckled and nodded.
"Exactly, as long as the money from the Ministry of Finance is in place, the steam engine train can officially start running at any time."
Mr. Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment as if thinking, and asked again: "Fei Xiong, besides getting the money, are there any other problems?"
Wanyan Feixiong nodded slightly and replied loudly: "Brother, in addition to money, we also need assistance from the Ministry of Industry.
Brother, you also know that there are too few manpower in the Academy of Sciences.
Our Academy of Sciences can handle the front end of the steam engine train, but the subsequent problems of the carriages and track laying are beyond the capabilities of our Academy of Sciences.
After all, with the current number of people in our Academy of Sciences, we simply cannot complete such a large siege.
Moreover, the number of people is only one aspect of the problem.
Secondly, the more than a thousand people in our Academy of Sciences are all students with average health.
There are also some students who are older girls with delicate bodies.
The task of these people is mainly to study key technical issues.
Isn't it obvious that asking talented people like them to do hard work is overkill?
Therefore, if we want to officially put the steam train into operation as soon as possible, we must have the assistance of the Ministry of Industry."
Young Master Liu nodded lightly, casually put his hands behind his back, and started pacing back and forth in the yard.
Soon.
Young Master Liu paused and looked at Wanyan Feixiong hesitantly.
"Fei Xiong, you also know what the situation is like at the Ministry of Industry.
With the current iron smelting level of the Ministry of Industry and the abilities of the skilled craftsmen, can they be qualified for such an important project?"
Hearing Young Master Liu's slightly worried tone, Wanyan Feixiong nodded happily.
"Brother, in the past few years, I have been paying attention to the development of the Ministry of Industry.
Based on my understanding of the current level of the Ministry of Industry, if I leave it to the Ministry of Industry at this time, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly and was silent for a moment, then looked at Wanyan Feixiong and nodded with a smile.
"Okay, since Fei Xiong you have confidence in the Ministry of Industry, then as a brother, I have nothing to say.
Regarding this matter, you should draw up a charter and give it to your brother as soon as possible.
After I have reviewed it, I will immediately send an order to the cabinet to finalize the matter as quickly as possible."
When Wanyan Feixiong heard this, he nodded seriously.
"Okay, little brother, I will start drawing up the detailed charter tonight."
Liu Mingzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, raised his wine bag and drank a few gulps of the wine, then he clenched his fist and punched Wanyan Feixiong's chest with a smile on his face.
"Good brother, as a brother, outsiders don't know what is going on here, but you know it.
Although the knowledge you have is all handed over to you by me, brother.
However, I am not very proficient in this knowledge.
To be honest, I can’t say that I don’t completely understand these technical things.
However, my understanding, brother, is only half-knowledge at best.
In just a few years, you, the boy, have been able to develop our Dalong Academy of Sciences to this point, and you must have put in a lot of hard work.
However, the results you achieved are also very significant.
Seeing that you have come this far, my brother is sincerely proud of you.
Compared to me, my half-brother, who is my mentor, your current skills as a student, dear brother, have already surpassed mine.
It already is.
Green is better than blue, and is better than blue."
As Young Master Liu spoke, he directly raised the wine bag and brought it to Wanyan Feixiong.
"Good brother, have a drink."
Wanyan Feixiong nodded happily and took the wine bag directly into his hand.
"Hey, you're welcome, little brother."
Wanyan Feixiong raised his hand and poured the wine bag down, drinking several large gulps of the wine.
Then, he grabbed his sleeve and wiped the wine on his chin a few times, and looked at Young Master Liu with a smile on his face.
"Brother, if it weren't for your guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today.
It doesn’t matter if you, the eldest brother, are better than me, or if you, the younger brother, are better than me.
In my mind, the younger brother, the elder brother..."
Liu Mingzhi didn't wait for Wanyan Feixiong to finish speaking, and interrupted him directly.
"Flying Bear, stop, stop, stop.
Needless to say some dispensable words, drink, drink.
All the words are in the wine."
When Wanyan Feixiong heard this, he nodded vigorously and turned to look at Song Qing.
"Brother Song."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Wanyan Feixiong smiled lightly and pointed at the wine bag on Song Qing's waist.
"Brother Song, I'm using this excuse to drink."
Song Qing raised his eyebrows, and with a smile, he took off the wine bag from his waist and threw it towards Wanyan Feixiong.
"Brothers Flying Bear, continue."
"Thank you very much."
"Hahaha, I'm seeing you outside."
Wanyan Feixiong took a long breath and reached out to return Mr. Liu's wine bag.
"Brother, let's drink together."
Young Master Liu raised his hand to take the wine bag and gestured with a smile.
"Drink together."
Young Master Liu and brother Wanyan Feixiong drank most of the bottle of wine in one go and then stopped.
"Phew, it's so happy, it's so happy."
"Hahaha, so is my little brother."
"Brother."
"Well, what's wrong?"
"We have already seen the steam engine. How about I take Brother Song and you two to visit other places?"
Young Master Liu thought for a moment and asked softly: "Is there anything more novel in other places?"
