After referring to the relevant information, Qianhua also clearly remembers that in the history of another time and space, the first regular civil air route was established on June 28, 1910 between Frankfurt and Düsseldorf in Germany, and the aircraft used for operation was the Zepblinglin LZ-7 airship, which could carry 24 passengers and 12 flight crews at a speed of more than 70 kilometers per hour. Two years later, a Zepberin airship made the first human flight around the world in 20 days.

At this moment, in the Nanyuan airship field of Dahua Company, hundreds of guests lurked in front of them an industrial monster that occupied all their field of vision: a cigar-shaped silver body with a length of 200 meters and a diameter of 25 meters, a fusiform red gondola with round portholes on the sides, six wooden propellers more than one person high, and four huge red tail rudders painted with white characters on them without exception.

"Princess, do you want to go up and have a look?" Lu Zhuyuan asked.

Qianhua felt no reason to reject him.

The ground crew in the blue company uniform quickly lowered the gondola gangway, and the two royal guards in red uniforms got on the boat first to stand guard, the gangway was very wide, enough for two people to walk side by side, Lu Zhuyuan got the sweetness of the last time, and raised his arm elegantly again, but Qianhua pretended not to see it, and went straight up the ladder.

Surprisingly, the pod is much more spacious and luxurious than it looks from the outside, with a small living room with ornate Turkish-style carpets, a European-style mahogany coffee table and upholstered leather sofas, surrounded by Chinese-inspired coiled dragon columns and Chinese painting screens.

"This door leads to the cabin and the wheelhouse, and to that there are the passenger compartments, the dining room, the galley, the storage room, and the mechanical room." Lu Zhuyuan, who followed in, introduced diligently, and on the surface, he didn't seem to mind the setback he had just encountered.

"Look at the box." Qianhua said.

"Please come over here."

The rooms look very comfortable, similar to the first class carriages on trains, each with four berths (2 upper and lower berths) separated by a curtain, and six compartments lined up on the right side of the port side walkway, with carved chinoiserie-style doors between each compartment and the aisle.

"Like its two sister boats, the Huayun 1 can carry 24 guests at a time, and the Anyun 1 under construction has twice the capacity and a much longer range and is ready for intercontinental shipping across the Pacific and Eurasia." The rich man Lu carefully played the role of a commentator.

"I heard that the airship airbag is filled with hydrogen, has Mr. Lu considered the safety of the airship?" Qianhua asked coldly.

"The factory has been specifically asked to take the most thorough precautions to prevent hydrogen leakage, and the design has also focused on fire prevention, and the most advanced fire extinguishing facilities in the world have been installed on the boat...... It also has received significant assistance from the military, so the security aspect is not a problem at all. ”

In fact, this "Huayun No. 1" is fundamentally modified from the military FTG-3 "Qiangyun" large attack airship, and Dahua Company also has a military background in it - in any case, turning a bomb-throwing weapon into a luxury air yacht can be regarded as a virtue.

After two turns, Qianhua finally made a comment that pleased the host: "It's beautiful, I'll take your airship to Europe another day." ”

"That's a great honor for Dahua."

As soon as Lu Zhuyuan finished speaking, several reporters who followed up hurriedly shouted: "Your Royal Highness Princess, can you take pictures?" Can you take a look over here? ”

The spotlight flashed and flashed, for Qianhua, today's event was a political task, and for Lu Zhuyuan, the presence of the princess and many dignitaries was a great opportunity for traffic and advertising, and the two sides should know each other's positions. Merely...... How much does a princess pay for an advertisement? Chibirch was a little curious.

When getting off the boat, Qianhua saw many familiar faces: Prime Minister Zhang Zhigao and Prime Minister's wife Luo Sulan, Foreign Minister Mo Ning, Minister of Industry and Commerce Niu Jin, Minister of Communications Jiang Wentao, Minister of the Interior Yang Zhengjin, and Minister of National Defense Hu Ke...... What about the advertising appearance fees of these people? Having said that, this rich man Lu's face is really big enough, so many important ministers of the empire who have every opportunity come to cheer him on, maybe a few of them have become blessed and shared wine and meat brothers with him, the old men who are sanctimonious have already seen through you, starting from the list that Zhang Qianqing brought, I really see more and more clearly the faces under your masks, the more I look at them, the more real they look, and the more I look at them, the more pleasure I feel......

It is boring to read the scripted speech provided by the Imperial Household Agency, it is meaningless to listen to the ministers and Lu Zhuyuan himself speak on the stage like a marquee, and it is boring to watch the airship take to the sky with the first passengers, what is there to cheer for those idiot-like guests? Just because I saw the airship drop off and the goddess scattered countless streamers? Yes, it was very dizzy, and at the same time polluted the environment - the misanthropic thinking of decadent young people in the 30s of the 21st century.

It's not right to be unhappy. But what can be done? If that person is there, maybe it will bring some special excitement...... But here are all such and such suffocating rotten middle-aged men!

A familiar figure suddenly flickered through the crowd.

Name...... His name should be remembered.

The surname is Huang, what is Huang...... That's right, Huang Hao! Lecturer of the History Department of Imperial University, the second son of the late Speaker of the House of Representatives Huang Linhong, went down to the south of the Yangtze River to wander last year when he was not a princess, and he was a tour guide made by this handsome university teacher, and he should be 26 years old this year, and I don't know if he is married or not...... Wait, what does it matter to me whether he gets married or not......

Qian Hua slapped herself in her imagination and hurriedly turned her head, not daring to look in that direction again.

After the company's inauguration ceremony and inaugural ceremony, the guests moved to the Western mansion "Wangyun Pavilion" of Lu Zhuyuan's family near the airship field, where the tall main building surrounded by the huge French fountain garden courtyard had already prepared a sumptuous Western-style dinner, with Western clown acrobatic performances, and a Western dance field was set up in the hall on the second floor, where several classes of European musicians were invited to play on the wheel, and a Peking Opera stage and a Chinese-style wine table were set up in the small building on the side of the main building.

The guests who were not accustomed to eating foreign dishes and dancing went to the small building one after another, and most of the guests, including the princess and several ministers, stayed in the main building, and at Lu Zhuyuan's courteous invitation, Qianhua sat down at the large table where he was.

"Hello Uncle Zhang, Hello Aunt Luo, Uncle Mo, Uncle Yang, Uncle Hu, Uncle Niu...... Long time no see. Qianhua smiled seductively and greeted her father's courtiers and subordinates one by one.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is so charming today." Mo Ning seemed to have a mouth full of honey.

Mrs. Mo next to her (it is said that she was once a famous prostitute in the capital) also immediately echoed with a smile: "What, Her Royal Highness the princess is not charming one day, you don't know how popular the portrait and photos of Princess Lu Dao are selling now......

The first thing that spoiled her appetite was the overly naked compliment, and she had to smile helplessly and take a sip of the appetizing aperitif, which only made her feel more depressed by mixing with these uncles and aunts.

The uncles and aunts skillfully used knives, forks and spoons to break down the Western delicacies presented one after another, and began to exchange procedural greetings with each other. Annoyingly, Mo Ning and Yang Zhengjin's wife (two vulgar women) are always turning over and over to talk to her about unnutritious gossip.

"I heard that the female officials in the palace have to take a bath three times a day and change three sets of underwear no matter winter or summer, is there such a thing?" Mrs. Mo looked innocent.

"That's everyone's freedom, and as far as I know, there has never been such a rule in the palace."

In Qianhua's opinion, in addition to showing the boredom of the questioner, such questions also made her heart churn with the violent thought of kicking the other party to the ceiling.

The female official Ye Jingying who was in her entourage was arranged to the other end of the next table, and at this moment, she was fighting with a middle-aged man who was famous on the rich list, and Qian Huayu sighed secretly - leave her alone.

The uncles at the same table and Lu Zhuyuan were really warm, sometimes calling each other brothers, sometimes pushing cups and changing lamps, sometimes two or three heads together and whispering, and then suddenly erupted into a rude laugh or obscene laughter, a group of stinky men, what shady things are they plotting?

From time to time, people also came to toast, and then Mo Ning or Yang Zhengjin took the initiative to stand up and introduce Qianhua, this is so-and-so, what is it now, that is so-and-so, what is it now, and so on, but the prime minister and his wife seem more indifferent, and they have not introduced her once-logically speaking, the prime minister with the highest official position present should be the most qualified to introduce strange dignitaries to the princess.

To Qianhua's surprise, all the heads of the top ten consortiums that had been reviewed from the notebook before coming were all here, from the tenth Jane brothers to the first Zhang Xiaoruo, there were many of them, and half of them were not lacking, and what made her even more excited was that she also met Zhang Qianqing here.

"This is Baron Zhang Xiaoruo, the president of the Zhang Consortium......" Before Mo Ning finished his introduction, Qian Hua keenly spotted the familiar figure vaguely hiding behind Baron Zhang.

"Qing'er? Is that you? ”

Zhang Qianqing, who was wearing a snow-white dress and permed hollow curly hair, poked her head out from behind her brother a little shyly and curtsied to everyone.

"You're pretty ...... in women's clothes"

Qianhua was forced back by Zhang Qianqing with her eyes halfway through her words, and after instantly understanding the other party's meaning, she hurriedly changed her words: "I mean, where did you make this skirt, it's really suitable." ”

"Do it yourself." Zhang Qianqing secretly winked.

With a clear understanding, Qianhua immediately turned to the uncles and aunts and said, "I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Then he grabbed Zhang Qianqing with lightning speed: "Baron Zhang, your sister will lend me, don't mind." ”

"That's her pleasure." Zhang Xiaoruo was obviously prepared for this.
