Chapter 182 Received a lot of nephews

Lan Yu is indeed a little smarter, but he still can't figure out what Liu Chun can do to send people to heaven? Could it be that he has to breathe?

It really made Lan Yu covered her, and Liu Chun was studying how to blow the air!

A mature hot air balloon can even fly across the ocean. Liu Chun rejected it without thinking. He didn't even plan to let the hot air balloon fly. As long as it can be sent straight into the air, it can burn high incense.

Tao Chengdao was a little disappointed when he heard Liu Chun’s plan. In Mr. Tao’s heart, it would be best if he could fly like a bird, which was the most enjoyable thing.

Liu Chun said helplessly: "Mr. Tao, let's do it. First get the hot air balloon out, and then I'll draw a picture of gliding for you. If you can build it, find a steep cliff and you can fly like a bird."

"Take it seriously?" Tao Chengdao asked in surprise: "Can it really be done?"

Liu Chun nodded, "Swear by my ancestor, I promise to do it! But gliding is dangerous, so it cannot be used by the nobles."

"I'm not afraid!"

Tao Chengdao is a stupid fool who dares to sit on a rocket chair, so what else can you be afraid of?

He suddenly became interested, "Mr. Liu, who is your ancestor? Have you heard of it?"

Liu Chun shrugged, "You always know Guo Shoujing from the previous dynasty?"

"What?" Tao Chengdao's face calmed down and he said in a muffled voice: "He, he is serving the Tartars!"

Liu Chun said frankly: "Yes, he is indeed an official from the previous dynasty, so I have never liked his character very much."

"Then, why are you still worshipping him?"

Tao Chengdao didn't even make a turn, and was straightforward, which was very consistent with the stubborn virtue of the old otakus in science and engineering. Liu Chun didn't care and sneered: "Do you think I'm willing? They instilled a lot of things in me without my consent. In fact, when I was studying, Guo Shoujing had already died, and it was his disciples who taught me. Also, they despise people's character, there is no need to despise knowledge. At least the things they gave me, so far, there is no mistake!"

Tao Chengdao took a breath, seemed to have some enlightenment, and nodded slowly, "Zhu Xi said that the principles of heaven are preserved, and I also think that there is a supreme reason in the world, but his is different, but I can't say it well!"

"Our masters call it truth, or natural science!"

"Natural Science?"

"Yes, natural science emphasizes one is one, two is two, and there is no unexplained rumor. Our explorations are all knowledge that exists between heaven, earth and all things!"

Tao Chengdao suddenly looked excited when he listened, feeling that what Liu Chun said was very consistent with his decades of exploration.

"Liu, Lord Liu, I wonder if the old man can learn this knowledge?" Tao Chengdao said bravely.

Liu Chun smiled happily, "Of course, I learned too many things, and I just need someone to help carry them forward!"

Tao Chengdao got the affirmative answer and suddenly became overjoyed. He jumped and looked like a child... and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Liu Chun was puzzled and thought to himself that this guy was crazy about gaining or losing his heart?

After almost a cup of tea, Tao Chengdao came back. Behind him, dozens of dark guys were followed... These people were generally thin and dry, with dark and red skin, covered in skin, and had a few bones, but their eyes were bright and energetic.

Tao Chengdao said happily: "Hurry up and kowtow to Lord Liu, what are you calling?"

This person didn't even think about it. He looked at Liu Chun in embarrassment, "Sir Liu, look, they are all my disciples. Are they called Master or Master..."

Liu Chun was simply amused and crying, "The master doesn't need to call you, let alone master. They are your disciples. I, I will teach you the knowledge!"

"That won't work!"

Tao Chengdao thought about it and suddenly knelt on the ground with one leg, "Tao Chengdao pays homage to Senior Brother!"

He worshipped his senior brother, and the remaining boys immediately knelt down and called Liu Chun the master, that was so straightforward!

In fact, many people are older than Liu Chun, but their seniority is there and they can't help but kowtow.

Liu Chun was also helpless and could only accept it. He asked carefully and then realized that Tao Chengdao was studying firearms, and many children of the craftsmen in the army regarded him as his teacher.

If we are in Taiping today, there are fewer places for these people to use their skills.

Tao Chengdao was devoted to studying Feitian again and kept fiddling with gunpowder. This guy had been involved in several accidents, and gave all his neighbor's houses and paid a lot of money.

There was no way, Tao Chengdao had to move to an open place outside the city, stay away from others, and continue to experiment. Many of the disciples also left, only a few dozen left.

Originally, Li Wenzhong was willing to help him, but after Li Wenzhong died, Tao Chengdao could only rely on the salary of the court. However, Zhu Yuanzhang's salary was notoriously low. He was obsessed with research and did not know how to manage finances. He lived a tight life and had no meals after eating.

If the master has achieved this virtue, the disciples will not be much better.

The reason why Tao Chengdao actively planned and wanted to experiment with flying in the sky was that he planned to become famous in one fell swoop. With the rewards of the court, his disciples could have a better life, and they didn’t have to be like monkeys.

Lao Tao said that he was unintentional, but Liu Chun listened to it intentional.

Life is so hard that I can still follow you. These kids are either fools or stupid people! Fools can succeed, but stupid people won’t be bad!

In Liu Chun's eyes, they are all treasures. With a little training, they can ignite the fire of science in the Ming Dynasty and eventually spark a sprawling fire!

But before achieving great goals, you must set a small goal, such as letting the hot air balloon fly.

Liu Chun and Tao Chengdao discussed that the structure of the hot air balloon is not complicated, first of all, it is a huge airbag.

"This must be sewn with the densest and strongest silk, carefully sew it without leaking air."

Tao Chengdao nodded, "No problem, this is not difficult, just, just..."

He hesitated, but Liu Chun smiled, "It's just a shortage of money, right? It's okay, I'll pay 10,000 yuan first!"

"Ten thousand guan?" Tao Chengdao was stupid and waved his hand quickly, "There are too many, there are 500 guans!"

Liu Chun smiled and said, "There is more. What is more is the red envelope given by my master, so that everyone can change into new clothes and eat some meat. We are technical workers, so we can't be too shabby, right?"

As soon as these words were said, Tao Chengdao's disciples were completely impressed. Master, you are simply a living Bodhisattva!

Master has persisted for so many years and finally waited for the opportunity! God has eyes!

These boys held their heads and went to buy them immediately.

Next is hanging baskets, which is easier. Tao Chengdao is easy to do, and he usually weaves chairs.

"The most critical thing left is the heating device, especially the fuel. I originally thought to use hot tin oil, but the hot tin oil is thick and smoke, which is not effective. Should I extract some oil?"

Liu Chun murmured to himself, and quickly denied it. After all, he expressed strong suspicion whether qualified kerosene could be produced by relying on local heating. Zhu Yuanzhang was too anxious and there were so many vassal states. If something happened, he would become a sinner and no one could save him.

"Senior brother, I have an offer, it's just a bit expensive!"

"It's expensive? What's the point of being expensive? I don't pay any money anyway!" Liu Chun encouraged: "Tell me, if you have any good ideas, just say it!"

"Senior brother, do you think you can use some Kun oil?"

"Kun? What Kun?" A pretty figure who could sing, dance, rap, and basketball flashed through Liu Chun's mind...

Tao Chengdao patiently said: "It is a big fish in the sea. Fishermen call it Kun. Kun's oil can be used to light the lamp."

Liu Chun suddenly realized, "It's whale oil! Yes! Just use whale oil!"

Tao Chengdao said worriedly: "Senior brother, Kun oil is not cheap, and the sea ban has been banned for the past few years, and the fishermen are gone. You must ask the navy in the court for it, and maybe you will even alarm Your Majesty!"

"Shock it if you are alarmed! Anyway, he can't help him if he is doing things for him?" Liu Chun didn't care. He didn't even understand why Tao Chengdao was so afraid of Lao Zhu!

Liu Chun thought about it, and the airbags, hanging baskets, and fuel were all in sight. There were dozens of capable craftsmen, and there were no reason why the hot air balloon could not fly up.

Since you can fly up, this is the most important first time...

Liu Chun thought about it again and again, "Old Tao, do you think we can have another auction so that everyone can pay for the opportunity to go to heaven! This is the first time in history! Will it be very valuable?"

Tao Chengdao rolled his eyes directly, "Senior Brother, what are you learning? Could it be that you can make money?"

"What? No!"

Liu Chun said angrily: "You are old, so you have to think about it for your disciples. If you don't earn more money, how can they get married? Without a wife, where do you get children? Without children, who will inherit the skills..." Liu Chun said with a grudge: "So, those who do science must first learn to make money!"
