Chapter 621: News from Suzhou
"Don't extinguish the ghost fire? Why does it sound so mysterious, people in ancient times had really too much imagination. ”
When Hu Ye heard He Fatzi talk about the immortal ghost fire, the corners of his mouth immediately twitched, but Hu Ye was very happy, which means that there is really natural gas under the ground of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the natural gas can be used, it is not difficult to build an iron ship.
"Master Hou, what you just said is true?"
He Fatzi asked Hu Ye again to make sure, if that unextinguishable ghost fire could make so many profits for him, why didn't anyone find out before? Are they all fools?
"How can this be fake? I've already told you that if you have a year, you'll be able to make a lot of profits, more than you can imagine, but until then, you'll have to find the best blacksmith to make the best tin cans, because ordinary things can't hold that stuff at all. Hu Ye said to He Fatzi.
"Do you want to use good iron? Can't you pull it with an ordinary carriage? He Bing asked curiously.
"Do you know what that thing is? Pull it with a horse-drawn carriage? It was like air, and it had to be compressed and stored in an iron cylinder. Hu Ye looked at He Fatzi angrily, if natural gas was so easy to store, he wouldn't need to come to He Fatty, he would just find a bag to fill it.
"Something like air? Can it be burned? ”
He Fatzi looked at Hu Ye curiously, isn't it all something that can be burned? He had never heard of anything like air that could burn.
"You don't have to worry about this, you just make a good iron can, and then store the gas like a hot air balloon stores fierce fire oil, and then transport it to the outskirts of Nanjing. As for how to store it, you should have more than I can do, right? Hu Ye looked at He Bing, the power of businessmen is infinite, in fact, there are many inventions. It was not invented by the inventor, but the businessman who worked hard to turn the profits, so the businessman is the biggest inventor.
"As long as what Master Hou said is true, I will definitely be able to get you the thing you said." He Fatzi patted his chest, but then said, "It's just that this thing can really make me use it for a year?" ”
He Fatzi's worries are justified, the first fierce fire oil. Later, every one of them was confiscated by the imperial court because of the imperial court. If this is strategically significant, then sooner or later it will be taken over by the imperial court, it is only a matter of time.
"I don't dare to pack a ticket for this, but there are still a few months, and the imperial court will not do anything until my ship is built, so I can do it during this time. How much profit you make depends on yourself. Hu Ye said to He Fatzi with a smile.
This thing is a very normal thing for a businessman, and there are several times the profit. What do businessmen dare not do? In the past few months, this fat man doesn't know how much natural gas to get out.
"Good! So decided, I'm going to find someone to make iron cylinders now, and then prepare the so-called natural gas for you. And then it's mine. He Fatzi stood up, looking like he was about to leave.
"Then I won't send it." Hu Ye smiled, because he had already seen Saren walking over with Yingxue in his arms.
He Fatzi nodded at Ying Xue. Then there was no name.
"Husband."
Yingxue came to Hu Ye's side and whispered.
"Don't move around during this time, and raise the baby with peace of mind." Hu Ye stood up and helped Yingxue, it was about to be nine months, and it was possible to give birth at any time, so there could be no mistake at this time.
"It's so stuffy in the room, I have to go out for a walk, or I'm going to be suffocated." Yingxue smiled, since she was a child, she was not a person who sat and lived, and now that she is pregnant, it is already rare to be able to stay in bed for a few days.
"You girl."
Hu Ye nodded Yingxue's head, and then asked Saren to leave and handed Yingxue to him.
Saren nodded obediently and left far away.
"How are you feeling right now?" Hu Ye touched Yingxue's belly and asked in a whisper as he walked.
"Now I can feel him kicking me every night and I feel so happy."
Ying Xue lay on Hu Ye's shoulder with a happy face and whispered.
"Don't go out and walk around in the future." Hu Ye patted Yingxue's head and whispered.
"yes, I see." Yingxue also knew that her mind should be restrained, so she didn't plan to move around.
Happy times are always very short, Hu Ye originally wanted to enjoy a happy time with Yingxue, but he didn't expect that not long after he sat down, Zou Kai had already rushed back.
Zou Kai almost went out with Lao Qian, and he came back with Lao Qian, which made Hu Ye very annoyed, such a rare time, and was messed up by Zou Kai.
"Can't you come back later?" Hu Ye looked at Zou Kai angrily and muttered.
"Master Hou, didn't you say that I would notify you as soon as there is news?" Zou Kai said to Hu Ye very aggrievedly, Hu Ye told him very strictly, as soon as there was news, let him know, and now he just got the news, so he immediately came to inform Hu Ye, why was he scolded by Hu Ye.
"Okay, okay, say something quickly."
Hu Ye knew that he was at a loss, this was indeed what he said.
"Master Hou, that Chu Liang has been found." Zou Kai told Hu Ye an explosive news, which made Hu Ye immediately excited.
Now that the matter of the real dragon has just passed, and now the news of Zhu Di's youngest daughter has been obtained, plus the child is about to be born, it seems that everything is developing in a good direction.
"Where?" Hu Ye asked directly.
"In Suzhou, the prefect has found his residence, but in order not to startle the snake, the prefect did not send anyone, so I asked me to come back and inform you." Zou Kai said loudly.
"It's good to know where to live, let's go now." Hu Ye laughed.
"Master Hou, it will take several days to come and go, don't worry." Zou Kai said loudly.
"How can you not be in a hurry?" Hu Ye smiled, the child is about to be born, Zhu Gaochi is about to return to Beijing, and Zhu Gaochu is also about to die, these things are best solved at one time.
"Then let's hurry up." Zou Kai said immediately.
"No hurry, no hurry." Hu Ye said casually.
Zou Kai was confused by Hu Yegao, didn't he say he was in a hurry just now? Why aren't you in a hurry now?
"Young Master, what should we do now?" Zou Kai doesn't know what's going on?
"Let's go, I'll go to the academy." Hu Ye said and walked over with Xiao Qiang.
"Young master, what about me?" Zou Kai asked loudly.
"You're waiting in the house." Hu Ye floated over from afar.
"Wait?"
Zou Kai touched his head, is the young master crazy today? I'm in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, and now I'm waiting, is it difficult to go to Suzhou by myself?
It's not the first time Hu Ye has been to Suzhou, to be precise, it's the fourth time, the first time is because the rope of the hot air balloon was broken and was blown to Suzhou by a strong wind. The second time was to follow Zhu Yunwen on the expedition, and then went to Suzhou to play for a day or two. The third time was to be held hostage to Suzhou by Yan Hui, and this time Hu Ye's feelings were the most profound, even more profound than the first time he experienced life and death.
And now that time is pressing, Hu Ye naturally will not ride a fast horse to Suzhou again, even if it is fast, it will take a day and a night, and he has a faster method, that is, the first way to go to Suzhou, take a hot air balloon!
If this was in the past, it would have been a crazy decision, but now it doesn't seem to be very good, because the hot air balloon has played the biggest role in the battle of re-appeasement, all the drawbacks have been discovered, and it is also beginning to improve, so although the current hot air balloon is not as good as those special hot air balloons in later generations, the safety has been greatly improved, and it is completely able to take Hu Ye to Suzhou.
Nameless Mansion naturally does not have that thing, and it is impossible to have a hot air balloon in ordinary places, because Zhu Di has listed hot air balloons as a military priority, except for the army, it is a capital crime for others to master it, so this thing is absolutely invisible in ordinary places.
But there is one exception, which is Qingtian Academy, which is the only place where there are hot air balloons besides the army.
Hu Ye took Xiaoqiang to the academy, asked Gongyi to fill the hot air balloon, and then set sail with the wind, which happened to be the east wind again, just in time to Suzhou.
"Wang Lin, go to my house and sue Sù Lao Qian, and ask him not to look for me!"
When the hot air balloon was rising, Hu Ye said loudly to Wang Lin who was watching below.
Wang Lin's goods can be said to be the most proud protégé of the public loss himself, all kinds of ingenious craftsmanship, the public has been handed over to Wang Lin, and now Wang Lin's glider can be said to be superb, without the slightest flaw. If Wang Lin is surnamed Gong Losing, I am afraid that he will be the successor of Gong Losing.
"Yes! Dean! ”
Wang Lin also roared loudly, and then under the scorching fire of the fierce fire oil, the airbag of the hot air balloon began to rise, slowly rising into the air, and the people below were getting smaller and smaller.
If the common people in the past saw the hot air balloons, they were afraid that they would immediately go crazy, but now the common people have seen a lot of hot air balloons, and even Zhu Yuanzhang has seen them in the sky, will they be surprised?
So there was a hot air balloon in the sky, but the people didn't care, just thinking about where it was going to fly.
However, this soon spread to the palace, because hot air balloons were only available to the military and the academy.
"Don't worry, it's that kid's hot air balloon, there must be something important, leave him alone." Zhu Di stood on the city wall, watched Hu Ye's hot air balloon fly all the way to the east, and said to the somewhat nervous soldiers next to him. (To be continued......)
