Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 256

The weather is fine today, the sun is shining brightly.

Before the arrival of warm spring, most people in the farming era had nothing to do. They sat on the street where they could get the sun, and gathered in small groups to chat about household chores.

Old man Wu held his grandson who had just turned one year in his arms, chatting with the old man next door.

"Spring is coming soon. My son is going to build a piece of land outside the city to learn how His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince will build a greenhouse. This winter will definitely make a lot of money." Old man Wu looked forward to it.

"Tsk tsk, speaking of it, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is really generous. He is willing to let everyone do such a lucrative business. He is the wisest of all the princes!" Old man Sun praised.

"Who said it wasn't? I heard that the Vegetable Base has already released the news. After the spring sowing, everyone will have some kind of training class when they are free. It's free."

"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince wants the common people to make more money and live a better life in winter. What a bodhisattva!"

"With His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince here, Daqian will definitely get better and better!"

"Haha, what's the point?"

Just as the two were chatting lively, there was a clicking sound and bursts of exclamation from a distance.

"What happened?"

"Go, take a look!"

When they walked over, they saw a scene that they would never forget.

I saw Li Changfeng, the Ninth Prince, sitting on a steel monster. The monster rattled non-stop, accompanied by billowing white fog, and was trotting along the street at the speed of a normal person.

In front of the steel monster was Li Changfeng's bodyguard, who ran in front and kept shouting at the people on the street.

"Let it go, let it all go!"

"Old man, don't be dazed, hurry up and get out of the way, the steam car is very dangerous!"

"Hey! Don't kneel! Okay, okay, can you kneel and go up? Get out of the way!"

Old man Wu looked dull, staring blankly at Li Changfeng on the steam car.

Old man Sun gave him a hand.

"Come to the edge!"

"Ah? Oh!"

When the two came to the side of the street, they quickly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Li Changfeng as if they were paying homage to a god.

Can this four-wheeled monster walk by itself without being pushed by a horse?
This is amazing too!

Besides miracles, can there be any other explanation?
At this time, Li Changfeng didn't care about these common people at all.

After entering the city, he tried to slow down, but the deceleration process was too slow, and it was impossible to make things like drum brakes, disc brakes, and brake pumps in a short time.

Liang Dafu's design is to use thick leather covered with iron sheets to hold the transmission shaft tightly. The braking efficiency is very low, and the steam car is too heavy, so the braking distance is very long.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened.

Soon, the speed slowed down to the normal walking speed, and Li Changfeng was relieved to drive on the streets of the capital in a relaxed manner, enjoying the fun of driving.

Glancing at the empty top of his head, Li Changfeng thought about adding a roof.

And tires.

Rubber trees are in barbarian territory, and that's a problem.

However, he had foreseen it a long time ago and asked the merchants to buy a lot of rubber in the territory of the barbarians. The Baishi City Research Institute is researching it, and it is not known when the tires will be manufactured.

It's time to urge.

Li Changfeng was thinking about these things while driving, and everything he passed caused a huge commotion. Everyone was astonished at him, and many people even knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

In this farming era, people who don't understand physics and energy conversion, the appearance of a cart that doesn't need a horse-drawn man is undoubtedly an existence that subverts the world view.

Everyone who saw it was discussing frantically.

"This...what is this!"

"It actually walks by itself!?"

"See, this one burns coal, my God, what the hell is going on?!"

"It's amazing, burning coal can make this car walk by itself?!"

"What is that white smoke coming out?"

"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is really a god descending to earth, and he created such a miraculous thing!"

"If this thing runs by itself, won't there be a need for a carriage in the future?"

……

Li Changfeng lost interest after turning around a few streets.

Handling is too bad!
The noise was so loud it could almost be described as deafening.

As for the comfort, there is no such thing. Liang Dafu would not care about such side details. In order to ensure that the seat is firm enough, it is an iron frame.

Li Changfeng was about to stop and go back home to rest when Gao Dali came galloping on a fast horse.

Even though Gao Dali had already received the news and was prepared in his heart, after actually seeing the steam car, he was still shocked on the spot with a look of hell.

Li Changfeng saw Gao Dali, and shouted loudly: "Old Gao, are you here to look for the prince? What's the matter? It's inconvenient for me, so I won't come down."

Only then did Gao Dali come back to his senses, swallowed with difficulty, and shouted loudly: "According to His Majesty's order, His Highness is called into the palace!"

"Okay, my prince knows."

Li Changfeng guessed that Emperor Qianwu must have received the news that he was driving a steam car and wanted to take a look and ask.

He simply steered the steam car towards the palace.

Seeing the car slowly changing direction, Gao Dali saw what he meant, and asked, "Your Highness, are you planning to drive to the palace?"

Li Changfeng replied loudly: "Yes, no problem?"

After being confirmed, Gao Dali hurriedly nodded: "It should be no problem, but I have to report it to His Majesty first."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and shouted to his followers: "Go quickly, let the guards at the palace gate get ready to welcome you, and don't block His Highness's way! Also, remember to report to His Majesty that the car is going to enter the palace."

The entourage took the lead and rode a fast horse straight to the palace.

Gao Dali led the way for Li Changfeng, turning his head to look at the steam car behind him from time to time, his expression was in a trance, like a dream.

This stuff is amazing too!

His worldview was severely impacted.

Soon, the steam car drove to the gate of the palace.

Li Changfeng saw the guards at the palace gate lined up on both sides as if they were welcoming him, so he didn't brake, and drove in under the stunned expression of the imperial guards.

Entering the palace gate, he saw Emperor Qianwu standing in the distance wearing a dragon robe.

Although Emperor Qianwu's expression could not be seen clearly from a distance, judging from his mouth, which was wide enough to fit a fist in, it was obvious that he was quite shocked by this scene.

Li Changfeng pulled down the deceleration lever and ordered the staff below: "Release the pressure, close the steam valve, and prepare to stop."

呲!
The steam car stopped slowly.

Emperor Qianwu came to the car, his face was full of surprise.

"Is this a steam car powered by steam that doesn't need people to push horses?"

Li Changfeng laughed and said: "That's right, father, do you want to come up and drive it?"

Emperor Ganwu's eyes lit up immediately: "Is it possible?"

Li Changfeng got up and gave up the driving seat: "Of course."
