Chapter 498 Innovation
"Don't worry, this is just a preliminary plan. What should I do specifically? I will discuss with Uncle Cheng and Uncle Qin in the future."
Xiao Zhengtai smiled. These are all things that are good for their own people. He will never give them to outsiders first.
Especially for such a major event that is a waste of money and money, he can make plans, but the final decision is not in his hands. Although he is the prince, the decision of such major events is still in Li Er's hands. He is very clear about this.
"That's good...that's good..."
Hearing His Highness say this, a honest smile suddenly appeared on Cheng Chumo's cheek, but his eyes were still on the train in the distance, and he kept thinking in his heart, what's good about this thing?
"Let's go! Let's go back and wait until the train is completely perfect. I will wait for you to take it. It's not interesting to do it now. The railway has been paved so long in total, and it can't play its advantages at all!"
Looking at Shen Qing, who was unhappy with the two girls, Xiao Zhengta grinned. The success of the experiment made him feel very happy and he also had the capital to tell Li Er about the conditions.
Otherwise, everything would be difficult to convince. After all, the matter of talking about war on paper is a joke. Now that the facts are in front of him, he doesn't believe his father and he doesn't believe him.
"yes!"
After hearing what Your Highness said, the two women felt unwillingness to relieve themselves. They hurriedly followed Xiao Zhengtai and headed towards the palace.
After returning to the palace, Xiao Zhengtai went straight to Xuanzheng Hall and told Li Er about the process of today's experiment.
But what Xiao Zhengtai didn't expect was that Li Er's attention to trains far exceeded his guess. In his impression, Li Er should only have a slight interest in this matter.
Unexpectedly, after hearing the whole process, he would actually experience it himself. Even if he believed that what Xiao Zhengtai said was true, he had to verify it himself.
There was no way. Under Li Er's order, Xiao Zhengtai could only take Li Er to Dongshan again. What Xiao Zhengtai didn't expect was that Changsun Chong was actually here, constantly wandering around the locomotive, holding paper and pen in his hand, recording something from time to time.
"Form, what are you doing?"
Xiao Zhengtai was very confused. Both of them had already come to him. The boy was still writing something intently, not ignoring the arrival of them at all.
"Little man...Little man...Meet Your Majesty, see Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
The sudden sound scared Changsun, his hand trembled, and he quickly turned around. When he saw the person coming, he was even more scared and hurriedly saluted the two of them respectfully.
"Is this what you mean by train? It looks extraordinary!"
Li Er didn't take Changsun Chong seriously at all. His eyes were always on the giant in front of him. The shock in his heart was unparalleled. It was hard to imagine that something completely made of steel could move.
"Cousin, why are you here?"
Xiaozheng was too lazy to answer idiotic questions like Li Er. He was just very curious about Changsun Chong's approach and hoped that he could bring himself some surprises.
"This... this... Your Highness, the prince, the villain is very interested in the train you have developed. Even when this thing is forged, I am still watching. As for how it generates power, although the villain cannot explain it clearly, he can understand it a little.
Since it can run on the rails, the little man made a bold guess, so he wanted to try it out and see if it can run on land, that way, save the rails."
After taking a deep breath, Changsun Chong directly expressed his thoughts. Through this steam engine, he had many thoughts in his heart. Of course, these things may be his wishful thinking, but he himself didn't know why. He had a special liking for such things.
"Is that true? Take what you draw to me."
Xiao Zhengtai's eyes suddenly lit up. Isn't this the talent he needs? No matter what he designed it, his bold idea alone has surpassed many people.
"I'd better not want it anymore. It's just that the villain's bold idea is really unaware of His Highness's eyes!"
Changsun Chong himself didn't know why he couldn't hide anything in his heart in front of Xiao Zhengtai and said it all.
"Father, have you seen that my cousin is the talent mentioned by Zhinu. Such an incredible topic is simply impossible for the students of the Imperial College. If you don't know how to innovate, your thoughts can only stay where you are and keep holding on with old ideas. It's not easy for the country to make progress!"
Xiao Zhengtai looked admiring. My cousin could think of this level. As long as he had been trained by some professionals, it would definitely be of great use.
The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional. That sentence, people who do not know how to innovate and hold out old ideas will only stay where they are. This touched Li Er's heart.
Everything that Xiao Zhengtai created can be said to have surpassed his cognition. As he said, innovation can change everything. Without Xiao Zhengtai's existence, the Tang Dynasty would not have had such a prosperous era today. Even if he finally achieved such achievements with his efforts, it would be many years later.
"Your Highness, you mean, can my idea become a reality?"
After hearing Xiao Zhengtai's words, Changsun Chong's breathing suddenly became rapid. He was very excited and couldn't wait to hand the things he wrote to Xiao Zhengtai with both hands, and then stood respectfully aside.
Things are similar to what Xiao Zhengtai thought. Through the principle of the working of the steam engine, Changsun Chong did create a car graphics, but there were too many details missing.
In theory, this thing can be made or even run on the road, but it is still like a train, and can only run straight lines, because there is no steering system in its design, it is just that you can simply walk.
"Cousin, it's not difficult to become a reality. Let's put it aside! I'm planning to start a college. If you are interested, you can go and study. When you have achieved success in your studies, you will understand that there are still many problems in your current drawing that need to be improved.
For example, how can the car you are studying change direction, increase speed, and reduce speed, and so on?”
After reading the drawings, Xiao Zhengtai came to the conclusion that Changsun Chong's thoughts were still too conservative, but he could be sure of one thing. If Changsun rushed to the academy, it would definitely be of great help to him.
"Yes, the villain will never disappoint His Highness!"
Changsun Chong was overjoyed. Through His Highness's words, he could also know that the academy founded by His Highness actually taught him what he was interested in, not those who gave him a headache, so he naturally would not have a reason to refuse.
