Chapter 492: The Envoy Takes a Plane
At any time, there are people who are sad and some people are happy, Li Linfu is already seriously ill and is quite worried about his children and grandchildren, but Yang Zhao, who has gradually become his enemy, is about to jump with joy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yang Zhao knew very well in his heart that as long as Li Linfu died, the position of the right minister would definitely be vacant, and this position must be topped by someone, with the current situation in Datang, no one is more suitable than him.
Only Li An is stronger than him, but Li An has more important things to do, and he doesn't have enough energy to take on the responsibility of being the right minister, so he has no competitors, and the only thing he has to do now is to quietly wait for Li Linfu to die.
"Father, I heard that the right phase is getting worse and worse, and the position of the right phase will be in your pocket sooner or later."
Yang Zhao's eldest son, Yang Xuan, opened his mouth and said.
Yang Zhao nodded slightly, and said with a relaxed expression: "In the whole world, no one really dares to fight for his father, but the waiting days are the hardest, and I don't know when Li Youxiang will die." ”
After speaking, he looked up at the sky, as if he was praying, praying that Li Linfu would hang up as soon as possible.
"Father, the right minister is sick like that, and he still insists on handling state affairs and refuses to let go of the power in his hands, so he can last for a few months at most."
Yang Zhao said self-righteously.
"I can last a few months, which is not much different from what my father estimated, but this is really exhausting! The position of the right minister is right in front of you, but right now, you can see it but you can't touch it! ”
Yang Zhao looked a little anxious, the taste of waiting was the hardest, and he couldn't wait for Li Linfu to hang up immediately, so that he could get the position of right minister earlier.
"The father waits patiently, the child will always pay attention to the movement of the right phase, and will come to report as soon as there is any recent progress."
Yang Xuan said happily.
"Well, my father wants to go to the palace to find out the concubine's tone."
Yang Zhao said and left the mansion and went to the palace.
"Hey, my father is too cautious, and under normal circumstances, no one competes with him for the position of right minister, why be so nervous?"
Yang Xuan shook his head and walked to his own small courtyard, he was in a very good mood today, his latest Condor was about to be completed, so that he could pretend to be good again.
Li An has put more energy into the R&D center, the work of the newspaper has entered a virtuous circle, there are not too many things that he needs to worry about personally, Li Bai and Du Fu, a pair of great talents, are already very familiar with the operation of the newspaper, and Li An can rest assured that the newspaper will be completely handed over to them.
As for the manuscript of the Condor, he handed it over to these two in one go, and instructed them to put it into the Datang Daily little by little to continue to maintain the number of fans.
For Ang Lee, the current aircraft manufacturing and continued research and development are big things, and the newspaper's affairs are all small things.
Looking at the aircraft parts that have entered the assembly line, Li An's heart is sweet, these are his achievements, and after the manufacturing is completed, it can play a huge role.
"Li Shilang, thirty planes have begun to be manufactured, and more styles of aircraft are also being developed, and tens of thousands of laborers have been used for aircraft, which is a big project!"
The number of people under the command of the little official has increased dozens of times, and his income has also increased a lot, which makes him feel a sense of accomplishment, and this sense of accomplishment is brought to him by Li An.
"The plane is the fastest machine, it is important for Datang, there will be greater development in the future, you have to work hard, the future is limitless!"
Ang Lee opened his mouth and said a word of encouragement.
"Yes, we will work hard and do our best to develop and manufacture, and at most in two months, 30 aircraft can be manufactured."
The little official opened his mouth and reassured.
Li An nodded with satisfaction and said: "There are only three test pilots at present, and after there are more planes in the future, pilots who need to fly planes will be needed, and they will be trained more and used in the future." ”
"Li Shilang, I have recruited a hundred people, and I have already started training yesterday, and I believe that I will be able to be qualified for the task of flying a plane within two months."
The clerk replied.
"Okay, very good, I want to go ahead of the official, it's enough to train a hundred people first, and after there is more demand in the future, it's enough to train again."
Li Ang recognized the little official very much, and took him around the production site a few times.
"Li Shilang, the envoys of various countries have asked to see the real plane with their own eyes, do you want to agree to them."
The little official suddenly thought of this.
"Oh, are these guys curious? Does Your Majesty know about this? ”
Ang Lee asked.
"The humble post has been reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty said that let Li Shilang take care of it, he doesn't care about these little things."
The clerk replied.
"Your Majesty is really open-minded enough, maybe it's time for these envoys to see the world, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let them go to the airport now, take a test flight today, and show them."
Now is the time to train pilots, so the airport will conduct test flights every day, and moreover, it is still a test flight many times, and there is a chance to see it.
"Yes, Li Shilang, let's arrange it."
The little official answered, turned around and went to prepare.
Ang Lee waited at the R&D center for a moment before driving to the airport.
Usually Ang Lee is still used to riding horses, because the feeling of riding a horse is more chic, but the driving speed is faster, and you can also hide your own location, sitting in a one-way transparent glass car, who knows who you are.
When he arrived at the airport, Li An saw nearly a hundred pilots who were being trained, they were all the first batch of pilots in the Tang Empire, and the future flight depended on them.
"How many times have you flown today?"
Ang Lee asked.
"Li Shilang, I've already flown once, and I can fly again in the afternoon."
The test pilot in charge of training replied.
"Okay, behave well in the afternoon, the envoys of all countries will come to watch."
Ang Lee reminded.
"Yes, Li Shilang, I understand."
The test pilot responded.
Not long after, more than 100 envoys from various countries arrived at the airfield of the test flight in several large cars.
"Yo, this is the airport! It's so big, it's so magnificent! ”
"Look, a straight road ahead is the runway of the plane!"
"Airplanes, isn't the big guy over there an airplane?"
More than 100 envoys from various countries saw the whole picture of the airport as soon as they got off the bus, and all of them looked very excited, and they were very much looking forward to the moment when the plane took off.
"It's all here!"
Ang Lee walked over.
"Can we go over and see the plane up close?"
Li An opened his mouth and said, "There is still some time before takeoff, okay, let's go take a closer look and reach out and touch it." ”
Although the technology of the first generation of aircraft is not very high, it is not something that can be manufactured by a small country, even if all the parts are disassembled and put in front of the eyes of these envoys, they will not be able to learn it, and it is impossible to learn it secretly, so there is no need to hide it.
"The plane is so big."
When you get closer, you can find that the size of the plane is much larger than when you look at it from a distance, and such a huge machine can actually fly into the sky, and all the envoys of small countries gasped and sighed that Datang was powerful and invincible.
"Walk closer, touch it, look at it, touch it."
Li An is very generous, the appearance of the plane is wooden, anyway, it can't be bad, let these envoys of small countries get in close contact, it can be a good way to promote the strength of the Tang Empire, and it is beneficial and harmless.
The envoys of all the countries were very happy when they heard this, and they all ran over to touch the appearance of the plane, and made all kinds of heartfelt sighs, lamenting that these small countries will never be able to catch up with the Tang Dynasty, and they can only mix behind the butt of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and a sour inferiority complex permeates the hearts of the envoys.
Seeing the expressions of the envoys of the small countries that Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, Li An was quite proud, and the Datang pilots at the scene were even more proud, and they all looked at these noble envoys with contempt.
"Li Shilang, can we go in and have a look?"
An envoy asked.
Li An thought for a moment and said: "The internal space of the plane is limited, the main and co-pilot are not allowed by ordinary people, and the cabin behind can only accommodate a maximum of six people, so don't look at it!" Later, you will draw lots, and only six people will be able to go up, but instead of going up and sitting, you will have to fly into the sky with the plane, looking down on the surrounding scenery, but you must remember that there is a certain danger to this, in case the plane falls, the person who gets on the plane will fall from the sky, and he will die, well, if any of you are willing to take the risk, you can go and draw lots. ”
"Li Shilang, these are all envoys of various countries, and their status is noble, in case of danger, what if they can't afford to pay this responsibility?"
The little official heard that there were six envoys going to heaven on this test flight, and he was very worried, after all, these are foreigners with distinguished status, once they fall to their deaths, with Li An's identity and status, they will definitely not be punished much, and he, the little official, will not be so lucky, it is estimated that his life will be lost, how can he not be nervous.
"What are you afraid of, the plane has been tested so many times, is it so unconfident in yourself? This official is also testing the courage of the envoys of these small countries, to see how many people are not afraid of death. ”
Ang Lee said with a smile.
The little official was very scared in his heart, but Li An said so, and he didn't dare to refute it.
"Li Shilang, what are the chances that the plane will fall from the sky?"
An envoy from a small country asked worriedly.
"There is no high chance, there is only a 10% probability that you will fall, do you dare to give it a try."
Ang Lee asked.
More than 100 envoys watched each other and discussed together.
In the end, only more than 20 people dared to stand up and draw lots, and six people were quickly selected.
"Haha! Congratulations, all six, you're ready to get on the plane. ”
Li An looked at the six winners with a smile, and then ordered: "This time, there are six envoys on the plane, don't let the trainees drive, let the two skilled test pilots fly the plane!" The time to go to the sky should also be shortened, and the flight will come down in a quarter of an hour to minimize the danger. ”
"Yes, Li Shilang, I understand."
Hearing the order, the two test pilots quickly entered the cockpit of the plane, and six envoys from small countries also entered the plane through the back door.
"Li Shilang, it's all ready to take off at any time."
The little official opened his mouth to remind.
Li An nodded, stretched out his hand, and ordered the plane to take off.
After the plane started, whether it was the six envoys who were on the plane, or the more than 100 people who stayed on the viewing platform, they were very excited and nervous, this was the first time they came into contact with the plane, and they did not know enough about the real performance of the plane, and those who dared to sit on the plane were all bold people.
"Fly, oh God!"
"It's like a big bird in the sky, it's great."
Looking at the planes flying in the sky, the envoys below all shouted happily, and the six people in the cockpit of the plane, the mood change was the greatest.
They were very nervous at first, especially in the stage when they had just taken off, they were nervous, and after the plane took off smoothly, they saw the scenery outside, and their mood suddenly improved a lot, and they began to become excited.
"It's almost time, send a signal, let them down."
Li Ang waited for a quarter of an hour before hurriedly letting the plane land.
As a behemoth slowly landed, Ang Lee's heart finally let go, and the little official beside him exhaled a big sigh of relief.
After the plane came to a standstill, Ang Lee and everyone left the viewing platform and walked to the place where the plane landed.
"It's so exciting, looking at Chang'an from the sky, the scenery is the most beautiful."
"I feel like a bird, flying above the blue sky."
"I want to fly again! It feels amazing. ”
The six envoys of the small countries who were fortunate enough to take the plane described it excitedly.
The envoys of the small countries who did not take the plane were suddenly full of regret, and began to envy and hate these six people.
"Li Shilang, we also want to do it once, I don't know if it's okay?"
"Yes! We also want to take a plane to go around the sky. ”
Itchy people began to make demands.
Li An waved his hand and said: "The plane has just flown over, it can't fly anymore today, there will be opportunities in the future, it's here today, please go back!" ”
It is enough to put on a show and let the envoys of all countries understand the advanced technology of Datang, but it is unrealistic to satisfy everyone's desire to go to heaven.
After leaving the airport, Li An saw a large group of children on an outing from afar, these people were all children of powerful families in the capital, and they usually had nothing to do, and an outing with beautiful women became their greatest pleasure.
With Ang Lee's current identity and status, he is extremely reluctant to be in the company of these guys, and he will avoid them when he encounters them, but after a closer look, Ang Lee found something interesting.
Among these gentlemen in the distance, there is actually a huge Condor made of a war horse carrier, and there is a person riding on the Condor War Horse, obviously, this person must be Yang Zhao's eldest son Yang Xuan, this War Horse Condor is the idea that Li An gave him, I didn't expect it to be done so quickly.
