Chapter 403 Chapter 402 The Brand New Dayang Group

Inadvertently, it has been more than three months, the weather is already cool, and the fields are full of busy farmers.

Zhang Hao pulled Zhou Xueyao and stood under the lighthouse, overlooking the sea and the brand new port. I also looked at the busy and excited crowd at the foot of the mountain.

More than three months have passed, and too many stories have happened.

The country of Qixia rises strongly and dominates the west—except for the country of Zhongshan. After all, half of the country of Zhongshan was swallowed by the country of Taihua, and the relationship between the country of Taihua and the country of Qixia began to become tense.

Under such circumstances, the Qingyun Kingdom also swallowed the other half of the Zhongshan Kingdom. And among the Qingyun Country, the Taihua Country, and the Qixia Country, there is a three-legged posture.

The Qixia Kingdom, which is busy with domestic rectification, is indeed unable to continue the war. The Qixia Kingdom is now the largest among the three kingdoms, but the country is left to be rebuilt, and the newly occupied areas need to be consolidated. Therefore, the posture of the Three Kingdoms standing on top of one another has remained in a stalemate.

There are also the Kingdom of Canglan and the Kingdom of Langya, and the war between the two countries is now in full swing.

The two steel warships that Wang Ruiyang took away were indeed sent to the Kingdom of Langya. The two warships were named: Hailong and The Hague.

However, the ownership of these two warships still belonged to the Xiaoyao faction, and the masters on the battleships, and even many soldiers, were appointed by the Xiaoyao faction.

However, the Kingdom of Langya can imitate these two warships and add the technology obtained from Dayang Group to redesign and build its own warships, black iron warships.

However, the Land of Langya is not easy. In the past three months, the Nation of Canglan ordered two steel warships from the Dayang Group again—Dayang Group sold two old warships, so the Nation of Canglan now has three steel warships. Except for the "Revenge" at the beginning, the rest were named "Dawn" and "Thunder".

Relying on three steel warships, the Canglan Kingdom finally opened up the sea route again, from the south of the Emerald Sea, directly traded with the Land of Earth Continent, and indirectly traded with the Eastern Fleet. In this way, the Land of Canglan has finally stepped out of the trough.

Also, if there is a problem with the battleship of the Canglan Kingdom, you can directly ask Dayang Group for repairs. And the battleship of the Kingdom of Langya has a problem... Figure out a solution by yourself!

However, the Xiaoyao faction stands behind the Kingdom of Langya, so the Kingdom of Canglan is not easy.

In addition, the biggest thing in the past three months is the strong rise of the country of Shaoze. The country of Shaoze, which has just risen, picked a soft persimmon - the country of Langya!

The west of the poor Langya country was invaded by the Canglan country for more than a thousand miles, and there was a life-and-death confrontation with the Canglan country on the ocean. The domestic power was already stretched. It never occurred to me that a fierce tiger suddenly appeared from behind, and the northern front collapsed.

The soldiers of the Kingdom of Shaoze have been sharpening their swords on their own land for more than 30 years, and with the secret support of the Dayang Group, the combat effectiveness of the Kingdom of Shaoze's legions is beyond imagination.

In just a few days, the northern defense line of Langya Country retreated more than 600 li.

In the end, it was the Xiaoyao Sect who directly intervened and asked the Southern Tang Kingdom and the Northern Tang Kingdom to jointly send troops, which temporarily curbed the madness of the Shaoze Kingdom.

But in the battle of the land army, the country of Shaoze is really too powerful. Most of the time, the coalition forces of the Kingdom of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Kingdom of the Northern Tang Dynasty could only retreat and defend.

Fortunately, the country of Shaoze had just been unified, and the country was empty. Nangong Zhi's attack was actually an attack instead of a defense, so he accepted it when he saw it was good.

However, the sudden rise of the country of Shaoze still caused panic in the surrounding countries. This country that everyone least wants to see is finally unified again. And as soon as it appeared, the kingdom of Langya was retreated six hundred miles! If it weren't for the Xiaoyao faction, the Kingdom of Langya would have been driven to swim in the sea.

And the biggest impact is - industry and commerce are blooming everywhere!

Zhang Hao's plan took effect! Three months have passed, and the original information has already been spread everywhere. In the end, Dayang Group simply established a publishing house. The first batch of printed publications of the publishing house were not newspapers but technical materials.

A set of very exquisite technical documents uniformly printed by Dayang Group only needs one top-grade spirit stone. Including mysterious iron smelting technology, steam turbine technology, shipbuilding technology, simple machine tool technology, the Great Formation of Sealing the Sky and Earth, etc.

In these sources, new, standardized units are used.

However, among these materials, there are only finished products and raw and cold data, and there is no research and development process and so on.

But even so, it is still in short supply.

After Dayang Group re-established contact with Dongfang, Hua An, the young master from the Kunlun Continent and a contradictory trading company, after seeing these materials, actually bought a whole ship of materials. He didn't want black iron, steel, etc. Hastily left.

In short, in just three months, the technology has completely spread. In the south, the Ocean Group's ship sent it to the southernmost point of the Taotu Continent, Cape Storm, which belongs to the Tianmo Cult, and naturally it was also sent to the Tianmo Cult.

In the east, it has spread to the Kunlun Continent.

And in the continent of fertile soil, at least in the west of the continent of fertile soil, almost every country has established its own military industry system - simple machine tools, black iron production lines, and the most important artillery production line!

Qixia Country has undergone the biggest change, and the railway has spread to the whole country——Liu Xinyu has keenly discovered the significance of railway to rule. In addition to railways, there are roads. Today's roads are still dominated by rammed earth. But a little bit of asphalt has already appeared.

The current Qixia Kingdom has basically consolidated its 15,000-mile radius, and Liu Xinyu has become the most powerful emperor in the history of the Qixia Kingdom.

And large and small workshops, enterprises, groups, etc. are also blooming everywhere in Qixia Country.

Especially the red building, which bought almost all the first-generation production equipment of Dayang Group, and spent a total of more than 100 million high-grade spirit stones—almost emptied the entire family.

Now, the Red Building is happily carrying out its own big construction - a complete industrial chain of black iron, artillery, and warships.

Under Zhang Hao's planning, and under the guidance of Zhou Jue and others, Honglou even ambitiously wants to complete an industrial system by itself.

But the biggest change of all is the Dayang Group.

There is a saying that if the old ones do not go, the new ones will not come. Now Dayang Group is thriving. I can't see the impact of the original disaster at all.

The biggest impact at the beginning was the port, the warships in the port, and the docks. Among them, the warships belonged to the Xuanzhen Sect, and the docks and ports were a bit old, and they wanted to dismantle them a long time ago.

Today, Zhang Hao is looking at his own dock. No one knew that in the new dock, the technicians and engineers of Dayang Group were building a new warship—a displacement of 20,000 tons!

The maturity of welding technology makes all this possible.

However, Huang Mingshan and others have now developed a new type of power machine - an internal combustion engine! The internal combustion engine is now also in its final stages of testing.

But today, what Zhang Hao and Zhou Xueyao want to watch here is... the hot air balloon!

After nine months of preparation and exploration, the first real hot air balloon that can carry people finally appeared.

Today is the date of the first public test of the hot air balloon.

Zhang Hao and Zhou Xueyao stood side by side, surrounded by countless people looking forward to it. Those who came here today are all insiders—at least they have been told that something new has appeared today, a flying object that does not rely on spells.

In a world of practice, if you tell others that there are things that don't rely on magic, that's quite eye-catching! This is the same concept as a technological world, where spells suddenly appear.

Although the Dayang Group has achieved many miracles, the flying things still attract a lot of attention.

How to fly without relying on spells? Is it like a bird?

In the eyes of everyone, Murong Shan, who had just joined the Dayang Group for three months, came with a group of people. Murong Shan took the lead, and the crowd behind them carried various tools, and even a two-meter-diameter large frame made of steel bars and wires. , sandbags, rolled up colorful airbags and so on.

Further back, there were several young men in white and simple robes, and the leaders were actually two eighteen-year-old girls.

These two girls are obviously Zhou Xueyao's maids, Xiaozhu and Xiaoyue. But now, these two girls have become scientists of Dayang Group.

The two daughters were originally young girls sold by a poor family, but were bought by Xinglintang. Now with the surname Zhou, it can be regarded as a complete name.

I studied chemistry with Zhou Xueyao, and got in touch with physics by the way, and finally assumed Zhang Hao's appointment to study hot air balloons.

Finally, it's time to claim fame.

Suddenly, more than two hundred people flew from the direction of the Zhang family compound. These people have different clothes and different styles. These people have all followed Dayang Group one after another.

Some of them are attracted by the theory of the circle of the earth, some are attracted by science and technology, some come for the great voyage and the legendary overseas Jiuxian Mountain, and some come because of astrology...

These people come from all over the world, but they all have some real skills, and most of them are above the Nascent Soul stage, and there are many late stage and peak ones. After repeated selection, Zhang Hao selected these two hundred people. More people can only live in Qixia Country for the time being.

Everything was ready, Xiaozhu and Xiaoyue came to the center of the marked field and began to direct.

Murong Shan, a great master and general, was led around by two little girls, and things were assembled in a short while.

An airbag with a length of more than ten meters crawls on the ground and extends to a high place along the hillside-this can reduce the difficulty of inflation.

Xiaozhu Xiaoyue commanded, Murong Shan and Murong Shan's men (brought from the north) followed the instructions of the two little girls, poured naphtha into the burner, ignited it, and the burner spewed out flames. After adjusting the distance, the high-temperature gas of the flame rushed into the airbag.

Gradually, the bottom end of the airbag began to inflate and bulge. The speed is getting faster and faster, more hot gas enters the airbag, the airbag expands at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually floats up.

There was a sound of "Oh..." around, and everyone looked very curious, but surprised...not much. In the world of practice, everyone has seen too many weird things.

The colorful airbags gradually become round and round, the flames are burning, and the hot air enters the inside of the balloon.

Suddenly, the basket moved.

"Throw the sandbag!" Xiao Zhu shouted.

Murong Mountain began to throw sandbags, and the hot air balloon swayed gently and began to rise. Murong Shan and two other people were standing in the basket.

This time, exclamations erupted all around.

Can it really fly without using spells?

What is the principle?

The balloon flew higher and higher, surpassing the first layer of white clouds and the second layer of white clouds. Until the thin but strong ropes that pull the balloon are taut. At this time, the mark on the rope is - 20 kilometers!

Seen from the ground, the hot air balloon at this time has only a small black spot left, which is sometimes covered by white clouds in the sky.

On the ground, Xiao Zhu loudly explained to the surroundings: "This is the new technology of Dayang Group, we call it a hot air balloon. The principle of its lift-off is to use the phenomenon of smoke going upward!"

Well, don't expect the Dayang Group to disclose the real principles, it's definitely killing people. But then again, the smoke rises...no problem! The phenomenon is correct.

Xiaozhu continued, "Currently this is just an exploration of technology. In the future, we plan to build super-large hot air balloons. We envision that the volume of hot air balloons will exceed one kilometer, and it can transport hundreds of tons of cargo at a time, directly from the sky. walk through.

Compared with the flying boat, it will be very slow and heavy. But its cost will be very low. The transport volume is higher, even the army can be transported!

Do you know how much this hot air balloon cost? "

After a short pause, Xiaozhu said, "The cost of this hot air balloon is 300,000 yuan! If the technology is mature, we are confident that it will be reduced to less than 150,000 yuan!"

300,000 yuan is the price of 30 middle-grade spirit stones!

And the cost of a flying boat is tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones! "

The eyes of many businessmen around them lit up instantly! They have seen the value of hot air balloons!

(Finally, the fourth update was released before midnight. Thank you for your support, Tianya has worked hard...)
