Chapter 2972 ??Zhuge Kongming(1/2)
"What are you doing? Why burn this thing?"
Da Qiao was shocked. It was too late to stop it. The hot air balloon burned too fast. In a blink of an eye, it was completely ignited, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell.
"This thing is useless to me. I will burn it if I want to burn it." Bai Chen said naturally: "So I should have won this bet."
Da Qiao was very angry. She had already thought of the military purpose of this thing.
If this thing is placed on the battlefield, it floats over the enemy's air, the enemy's marching and formation, and the food and grass position can be clearly seen at a glance, and the enemy cannot shoot himself.
Even if you don’t need these, just smashing things down can cause great trouble to the enemy.
However, it was a pity that Da Qiao was burned by Bai Chen like this.
Da Qiao rushed straight to the carriage angrily, ignoring Bai Chen.
It was a pity that Lao Zhang was expecting to ask Bai Chen for a favor and go to the top to experience it.
Some people brag when they go back, after all, even those princes and ministers have never flew into the sky.
But he didn't dare to act like Da Qiao, especially in front of Bai Chen.
I was speechless all night. On the second day, Bai Chen finally woke up after the sun was noon.
This time, Old Zhang learned his lesson and waited for Bai Chen, not daring to disturb him.
The group of three finally set out again. At the beginning, Da Qiao seemed to be sulking with Bai Chen.
However, after a long period of dullness, Da Qiao took the lead in breaking the peace.
"Sir, can you tell me how that thing flies?"
"The truth of that thing is not difficult. If you are determined, you should guess a few points."
"It's just relying on that fire, right?" Da Qiao's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself that after he went back, he would do one.
It seems that something is not difficult to do. If it succeeds, then I will have made great contributions to the Sun family in Jiangdong.
"Do you want to do it yourself?"
"So what? Could it be that you want to kill me?"
"When you do it, don't let someone go up. With the current conditions, you basically can't make qualified ones." Bai Chen said.
"Why is this?"
"Didn't you notice that the inflatable ball is special? If you want to make a ball with a cloth, you may be ignited if you can't fly."
"So what material is that ball? I'll ask someone to find it."
"That thing is only available overseas, in Southeast Asia, um... it is now Annan area, called rubber, and it requires a relatively complex process to make it. Don't look at the simple principle of that thing, but the materials are very cumbersome."
Hearing Bai Chen's words, although Da Qiao had not completely given up hope, he was still half cold.
"Are you relying on that thing to travel around the world? If there is that thing, it is indeed convenient. You don't need to worry about the bumpy road, and you don't need to worry about bandits and domineering. You don't have to fear the peaks, and the surging waves are meaningless."
"You are too naive. Although that thing is convenient, it is not fast. And you have to walk along the wind. It is too difficult to travel around the world by relying on this thing. It is better to ride a car and a horse on the ground."
"So how did sir travel around the world? Even overseas?"
"The thing I made yesterday is called a hot air balloon. Although it can fly, it can only be used for viewing. However, there are some special tools and more complicated things. You can travel ten thousand miles a day and the land of China can only take one or two days. Even if you go to a distance, it will only take one or two days."
Although Da Qiao was still a little doubtful in his heart at this moment, Bai Chen's words were greatly credible.
And she also promised that as long as Bai Chen wins, she will no longer refute Bai Chen.
"Is there really such a thing?"
"Of course there is, otherwise how can I go all the way?" Bai Chen said naturally: "So, people should maintain awe and be respectful to all things in the world."
"Why might the sir do it and let the little girl ride it once?"
"Whenever you won't worry about the Sun family in Jiangdong, I'll take you to travel once."
"Sir, are there any differences with the Sun family in Jiangdong?"
"No, I really appreciate Sun Ce, but... forget it, I just don't want to intervene in the world. Whether it is your future public family or Cao or the Yuan family of Runan, I don't have the so-called likes and dislikes. I just simply don't want to participate in them."
"Sir is brave and resourceful, and has amazing skills. If you can serve one side, you will be able to be the best minister in the future. Why do you have to bury your talents?"
"I have my own fun. Why do I fight for something that has no interest? A high-ranking minister may not be as free and easy as I am now. Why bother to find a shackle for myself?"
Although Da Qiao still did not give up persuading Bai Chen, Bai Chen's failure to get in was also very disappointed.
No matter how Da Qiao moved him with emotion and reason, Bai Chen just refused to listen to advice.
In the next two days, the road was calm. Not only did Cao's army not chase him, but even the bandits and horse thieves seemed to have disappeared.
Until he left Cao ao's sphere of influence, Da Qiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In this era, all the forces of all sizes were separating their territory, and the same was true for this Yuxu City.
This kind of power does not rely on anyone. They do not have the strength and ambition to compete for the world, and only seek to protect themselves in this troubled world.
Let’s see who has the possibility of winning the world and make the final choice.
Several major forces rarely take the initiative to move them. After all, if they attack them, it is likely that other enemies will have an opportunity, and may even push the other party to the enemy's camp.
So after arriving at Yuxu City, Da Qiao finally felt relieved.
However, as soon as he entered Yuxu City, Bai Chen met an acquaintance.
Zhao Yun saw him standing across the street, as if waiting for his arrival.
It seems that the news that my group of three people came here has been learned by some people.
There was still someone standing beside Zhao Yun, and looking at the position, the person should be the person in charge.
Bai Chen saw the man wearing a feather crown and a green robe, which looked a little simple, in his thirties, but he looked extremely handsome and had a bit of extraordinary temperament.
Bai Chen thought about it and then knew who that person was.
However, Da Qiao recognized the identity of this person first: "Zhuge Liang."
Bai Chen looked back at Da Qiao, wondering when Da Qiao came out of the carriage.
"You know this person?"
"This person is a strategist under Liu Bei from Xuzhou. He is very polite. He came to my Qiao family a few days ago to be a lobbyist."
"Oh? What is he going to do?"
Da Qiao snorted lightly, his tone was quite unkind: "What else can I do? I want to marry Liu Bei."
"Uh..." Bai Chen thought for a while. Liu Bei should be in his early forties now. This shameless thing is that he thinks so beautifully.
"Then have you agreed?"
"How could I agree? Not to mention me, even my father, he would have directly expelled him from the house."
But thinking about it seems to be understandable that Liu Bei is now in a bottleneck and urgently needs an external force to help him break through.
The Qiao family in Jiangnan is a force that even Cao Ao dares not ignore. Jiangnan is a prosperous and prosperous place, and the Qiao family is the top portal of Jiangnan.
Da Qiao's father, Duke Qiao, was a veteran of the dynasty and had a prominent family background.
If Liu Bei could marry the eldest daughter of the Qiao family as his wife, his growth would definitely make rapid progress.
However, if a middle-aged man in his humble status and a humble and proud family lady, at least Bai Chen would not have the courage to match people with others.
This shows how thick and confident Zhuge Kongming is.
He dares to say that this kind of media is his luck if he doesn't beat him to death.
Although it was only the first time to meet, Bai Chen’s impression of Zhuge Kongming was that he was bold, meticulous and thick-skinned.
However, this is very consistent with Zhuge Liang's positioning, he is a strategist.
Of course, the real Zhuge Kongming is not as powerful as in the Romance. Even in this chaotic world, his name may not be able to squeeze into the top five.
The name of the lying dragon and the young phoenix was also deified by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
"This guy must have heard of your deeds and came here to guard you and want to win you over to serve Liu Bei..." Da Qiao looked at Bai Chen with a little concern: "Don't be convinced by him."
"Do you think I was so easily convinced?"
Although Da Qiao was filled with righteous indignation, when he met here, he still had to show the quietness of a lady from a noble family.
After getting off the carriage, he came to Zhuge Kongming and Zhao Yun with Bai Chen.
"Mr. Zhuge, the little girl is polite."
"Miss Qiao, it's really rare to meet you here."
Zhuge Kongming looked at Da Qiao with a smile on his face. Da Qiao's face did not have the kind of indignation he had before. He was a well-educated lady.
"Zhao Yun greets Mr. Zhao Yun also came up to salute Bai Chen: "I haven't seen Mr. for a long time, isn't you okay with me recently?"
Very, it’s so good, it’s so good.” Bai Chen grinned and said, “Are you so good recently? Did Liu Bei treat you badly? If you have any grievances, just tell me that I will go to Xuzhou and kill him in a mess.”
Zhuge Liang was shocked: "Mr. Bai, don't joke."
Zhao Yun also hurriedly said, "My lord treats me well, so do you all my brothers. I like everything in Xuzhou very much. Mr. Wu has to worry."
"Are you Zhuge Liang?" Bai Chen turned to look at Zhuge Kongming, asking a little knowingly.
