Chapter 45: The Maniac

Looking at the design drawings full of drawings, the huge body that was as heavy as a monster, and the tracks laid on the ground, and then looking at every item written on the design drawings that seemed to be fantastical now, Li Tai's breathing became heavy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, panting as he looked at Bai Qi, who was sitting lazily in the corner and leisurely drinking tea, and gritted his teeth and said, "Did you bastard see that I was obsessed with weapon development, so you specifically looked for something to do for me, right?" ”

Bai Qi put down the teapot that was handed to his mouth, tilted his head sideways and thought seriously for a moment, and nodded slightly: "You should remember that when we first established the Weapons Development Department, we mentioned a purpose, that is, the final research results should be more applied to civilian use, right?" The research of the Shenwei Iron Cannon is limited by materials and technology, and I think it has reached a bottleneck, and the development department should start researching technologies that will benefit the people, such as this train. ”

Some of the techniques he knew were explained to Li Tai one by one.

"In the past, because of technology and fuel problems, many materials could not be made. Now that the better fuel has been solved, we have solved the problem of combustion temperature, and we have also mastered some related technologies, and the steel used to build trains should be able to be manufactured. Shouldn't we go out in a circle and dedicate ourselves to the smelting of steel? As for some other key technologies, we can only slowly improve them. The train is a huge national project, and it is definitely not something that can be completed overnight, so it will take ten or even decades to do it well! ”

Li Taibai glanced at the white chess, this guy actually didn't talk about a lot of key things, he just drew a cake for himself, and then pushed it in front of him, but he was still attracted by the cake he painted, just like a pervert who saw a peerless beauty, and felt that he had to get her, and his heart was itchy.

Coming out of the secret base, Li Tai drove away the annoying white chess, and he didn't even bother to say goodbye. I plunged into the vast library of materials stored in the Ministry of Industry, looking for the information I needed.

He was not the only one who went to look for it inside, but he also selected several of his most trusted old craftsmen and plunged into the data pile together, and began to look for materials, take notes, do calculations, and even eat and sleep in it.

"The finch has been in the Ministry of Industry's database for two days recently, so there won't be anything, right?" The eldest grandson held Li Zhi, who was sleeping soundly, in his arms, and asked his husband worriedly.

"That kid left a big project for Qingque when he left, and now he's leading a group of craftsmen to overcome it! You know, this son of ours is not interested in anything now, he has already told me not to be a fief, he himself is too busy with research matters, and he really doesn't have the energy to take care of the fiefdom. When Li Shimin talked about this incident, he couldn't help but feel a little sad while being happy, his son doesn't like power now!

The eldest grandson laughed proudly, his two sons were known to be filial. What reassures her the most is that the eldest son Chengqian is conscientious and hardworking in the position of the crown prince, and has been unanimously praised by all the ministers. Qingque's son is dedicated to the study of things, everything he does, and everything he produces, almost everything changes the life of the Tang Dynasty, but he has no idea about power, and he really achieves the realm of "treating power as dung". The two brothers are known as the model of brotherly affinity and are praised by the ministers.

"The concubine found that the finch was more nervous than before, there is nothing wrong with this research, right?" The eldest grandson was still a little worried.

"I have already asked Shaoqing, she has seen the design drawings, and also said that if this project can be made, it will make my Datang east, west, north and south moat change the way, and from then on, the Datang foundation will be more solid, which is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people! Shaoqing's ability, Guanyin, you also know, since she said so, then there must be no problem. Li Shimin hugged the eldest grandson's thin shoulder: "I have ordered the Ministry of Industry to fully cooperate with the work of Qi'er, hoping to minimize his burden." ”

The eldest grandson leaned his head on Li Shimin's broad shoulders, feeling the thick feeling that his man brought to him, thinking of the few closest young people around him, and his heart couldn't help but feel as warm as the spring sun.

"Second brother, the next time Fengqu comes back, let's arrange the wedding of him and Shaoqing, we Datang owe the two of them too much." The eldest grandson raised his head and looked at her husband's resolute face.

"Hmm." In the evening breeze, Li Shimin's voice spread softly.

When the moon set and the sun rose, Li Tai, who was in the Ministry of Industry, was staring at a pair of panda eyes and leading a group of people to bury his head in the mountains and seas like mountains and seas looking for information, and Bai Qi had already left Chang'an far away.

The concrete roads that stretch from Chang'an are mainly being built between major cities, and there are no plans for other unimportant places. The roads in these areas are still the same yellow mud trails as before, winding through the fields and mountains.

On the road from Chang'an to Liangzhou, more than a dozen horses brought up smoke and dust all the way, clothed in the morning light, and everyone on horseback was like a layer of gold, running on the road with their backs to the sun.

Bai Qi was dressed in a robe, wet with dew, and his hair was stained with crystal dewdrops, which were sunburned, like pearls of all sizes scattered on his head, shining brightly.

In the fields on both sides of the road, the wheat was almost ripe, and it was full of crops, and it was heavy and heavy like gold in the fields. The peasants who had come out to take care of the fields before dawn bent over, hid themselves in the wheat fields, and when they were tired, they straightened up and stretched, they looked at the dozen or so fast horses galloping by the roadside, and their faces did not show much discoloration, after all, on this road, there are such fast horses galloping from the imperial court from time to time this year, and they are already a little used to it.

Passing through large fields, passing quiet villages, crossing a small river as deep as a horse's leg, and beyond that there is some desolate territory, which is rarely passed by except for the villagers who used to live in the area, and the army passing by, after all, it is too remote from the city, and the land is not as fertile as the other side of the river.

On the side of the road, there is a towering tree with three people hugging, the thick roots are exposed to the ground, like a dragon on the ground crossing, on the thick branches, bunches of pale yellow fibrous roots hang down from the branches, and the dense green branches and leaves are like an umbrella cover, covering a piece of farmland, stretching all the way to this side of the avenue.

Under the tree, Hakimu sat on a mat, and in front of him was a long table on which a jug of wine, two glasses of wine. Seeing that they were coming, Hakimu stood up and made a big salute to white from a distance.

"Hakimu has been waiting for the Hou Ye here for a long time. I wonder if the Hou Ye can come over and have a drink, just as to see him off? ”

White stopped the soldiers who wanted to come forward to capture Hakim, shook his head at them, turned over and dismounted, walked alone through the field, came to the bottom of the tree, and sat down. (To be continued.) )
