Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 497 The Great Vision
"Let something like a bird fly?" He Yongyan said after being stunned for a long time.

"Have you ever played with bamboo dragonflies when you were a child?" Li Changfeng tried to continue to guide.

"What is a bamboo dragonfly?"

"Find a wooden stick, and I will make one for you right away."

After a while, a wooden stick was brought over.

Li Changfeng asked his bodyguard for a dagger and made a bamboo dragonfly on the spot.

"First observe the angle of the two fan blades."

He Yongyan took the bamboo dragonfly and looked at it carefully and said doubtfully: "Both fan blades have an inclined angle, but what's the use of this?"

"give me."

Li Changfeng asked for the bamboo dragonfly back. He rubbed it in his palms. When he reached the end of the rubbing, he released his palms and the bamboo dragonfly spun and flew up.

He Yongyan stared at the bamboo dragonfly and was stunned.

Li Changfeng did not interrupt and waited quietly.

When the bamboo dragonfly landed, He Yongyan's eyes suddenly burst into astonishing expression.

"Understood!"

"Your Highness, I understand!"

"Make two very large fan blades, use the engine as power to rotate quickly, and tie something like a hanging basket underneath, so it can carry people and cargo!"

At this point, He Yongyan's face turned red with excitement and he started dancing.

"Yes! That's right, that's it! As long as you have enough power, you can fly like a bamboo dragonfly!"

"Oh my God! This is such a great idea! If such a machine can be built, people can fly freely in the sky! This will definitely change history and go down in history!"

At this time, He Yongyan even had a picture in his mind, and an unprecedented desire surged in his heart.

Li Changfeng knew that the helicopter he envisioned would be more difficult to manufacture than a wing-spreading aircraft at this stage, so he reminded: "No, it's not something like a gondola attached to it, it has to look like a bird. This is more aerodynamic."

Li Changfeng accidentally threw out a professional term.

He Yongyan asked in confusion: "What is aerodynamics?"

"Um……"

Li Changfeng thought about the wording and guided it in the simplest way: "You can understand it this way. For example, if you use a knife to cut a target horizontally, it feels very relaxed when the blade is aimed at the target. If you use the knife to hit the target, you will feel Can you understand the resistance?"

"I understand! But why is this?"

He Yongyan frowned with confusion on his face. Without waiting for Li Changfeng to suggest something, he asked tentatively: "The air resistance on the blade is small, but the air resistance on the blade is high? Is it flat like the wings of all birds?"

"That's right!"

Li Changfeng patted He Yongyan on the shoulder and was very satisfied with his understanding ability.

Then he pulled him towards the research center.

"I already have some ideas about how to design the aircraft. Let's draw some pictures and discuss it."

Almost without thinking, Li Changfeng drew a sketch of a propeller plane.

The first nuclear bomb used in actual combat in the previous life was detonated by Japanese pirates.

This item has been recorded in history, causing huge casualties and rewriting the entire history of the world. Li Changfeng still remembers the nuclear bomb data clearly.

The nuclear bomb weighs about 4.9 tons, is 3.6 meters long and 1.5 meters in diameter.

Therefore, Li Changfeng drew a sketch of this aircraft, and the approximate dimensions marked were based on the ability to hold a nuclear bomb, and he made special requirements for He Yongyan to be able to hold something of such weight and volume.

He Yongyan didn't think much about it, thinking that Li Changfeng made such a request considering the need to carry goods and people.

Then there were more sketches, and Li Changfeng introduced the key details in detail.It wasn't until dark that Li Changfeng finished introducing the key points.

"Okay, that's basically it. Follow this line of thought and research. If you have any questions, come to me to discuss them at any time. Remember, this is your most important research topic at the moment. Leave other research to others." Li Changfeng warned. road.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I'm only interested in airplanes now, and no one can stop me from studying airplanes!" He Yongyan said excitedly.

"Okay, it's getting late. The prince is going back to his mansion. You should rest early."

Li Changfeng stood up and was about to leave but was stopped by He Yongyan.

"Your Highness, can I ask, how did you come up with these magical things? Why can't we think of them? I feel that I am already smart enough, but I feel nothing compared to you! Many times, we all feel Your Highness, the wisdom you possess is not something that a normal mortal should possess! Are you really a god?"

He Yongyan looked dejected.

Li Changfeng felt helpless.

This is the culmination of hundreds of years of human wisdom in previous lives. He didn't think of it. To be honest, he really doesn't have that ability.

However, this must not be said to He Yongyan.

Li Changfeng smiled and patted He Yongyan on the shoulder: "I am not a god. All I can think of is just two words: observation!"

He Yongyan looked suspicious: "Observation? Is it that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple!"

Li Changfeng started to cheat.

"The propeller of an armored warship can push the ship forward in the water, why not in the air? Children's small toy bamboo dragonfly proves its feasibility! Birds can fly in the air, unlike airplanes they can flap their wings, but the purpose It’s to have power, so if we use the engine to provide power, won’t we be able to fly?”

Hearing this, He Yongyan fell into deep thought.

Li Changfeng continued: "This is my prince's idea of ​​​​imagining the airplane. In the final analysis, it is through observing the things we can see in our daily life. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Your Highness, your powers of observation are so strong!"

He Yongyan gave a thumbs up, his eyes full of admiration.

Li Changfeng smiled and left the research institute.

……

Three days later.

Next to the Changfeng Automobile Store, another store opened.

There are four big characters on the door: Changfeng Trucks.

This time there was no publicity, not even an opening ceremony, the door just opened quietly.

But even so, there was still a crowd of people gathered outside when the door opened.

Some of them were merchants who had received the news a long time ago. They had long heard that Li Changfeng was working on trucks. They had also imagined using trucks to haul goods, so they had been paying attention to this matter.

In addition, there are also some people who Li Changfeng specially sent to notify those businessmen and dignitaries involved in the construction of the Daqian Railway Network, Daqian Highway Network, and new hydropower stations.

They were given the right of first refusal.

Taking into account the use characteristics of the trucks and the fact that their costs are indeed very low, Li Changfeng kept profits very low. Each truck was sold for only 800 taels of silver.

Li Changfeng now has too much money, and making more money is of little interest to him. Promoting the industrialization process as soon as possible to assist in nuclear weapons manufacturing is the most important thing at the moment.

This price made all the merchants and dignitaries who came to buy it feel relieved.

They have to purchase trucks in bulk.

If the price is too high, they really can't afford it.
