They relaxed instantly under the mountain of pressure. Those who were wearing military uniforms were lucky. A few engineers in the military uniforms suddenly lost their feet. If there was not someone beside them to support them, they would have sat down on the ground.
Who would have thought that the Governor would actually make such a joke to everyone? Such a joke is really scary.
Zhang Su himself also breathed a sigh of relief. Although Taixia knights still have to die for killing people for no reason, in fact, the number of knights in Taixia who have died for ordinary people is definitely less than the demon shadow demons he heard about. If Cheng Honglie really killed everyone present in anger, it is estimated that no one except Zhang Tie would be willing to cause trouble for a group of ordinary soldiers who dared to have a supervisor, or someone would come up with various reasons to prove that the supervisor The "necessity" and "legitimacy" of your actions at this time - for example, if you find a spy with three eyes in the crowd, or you are disrespectful to the supervisor, or the supervisor is chasing the blood demon and accidentally hurts him - no matter Wherever there are people, power and strength will have a strong influence. This is determined by human nature and is the same everywhere.
These thoughts flashed through Zhang Su's mind, and Zhang Su took a deep breath, "I can take the Governor to find the Sect Master, but the Sect Master's current location is still about two hundred kilometers away from here. I don't know what the Governor wants. What kind of transportation are you taking, and do you need me to notify the flying boat of the Zhulong leader to come here to greet you?"
Zhang Su did not see the flying boat on which the Governor was riding, and thought that the Governor and the knight attendant next to him flew directly from the sky, so he asked this question. As the Governor, in terms of etiquette, It deserves such a welcome.
Cheng Honglie waved his hand and pointed to a few cool-looking military off-road vehicles parked over there, "No need, just take the car over there..."
"Okay, Lord Superintendent, please come with me..." Zhang Su simply said a few words to an officer next to him. He took Cheng Honglie and Gao Tianqi directly towards a military vehicle over there.
Arriving in front of the military vehicle, Zhang Su opened the trunk of the car door, took out a metal crank from the trunk, and then walked to the front of the car with the metal crank. Insert one end of the crank handle into a hole in the front of the military vehicle, exert force on your hand, and after just a few easy shakes, the engine of the off-road vehicle started to rotate, making a low and sweet roar. A cloud of smoke began to erupt from the exhaust pipe at the rear of the car.
Gao Tianqi's eyes lit up, "A car using a candle oil engine?"
"good… "
Cheng Honglie also glanced at the military vehicle before sitting in the back seat of the vehicle. Zhang Su put away the starter handle and sat in front with Gao Tianqi.
"Bang..." "Bang..." I closed the car door several times, put down the handbrake, put the gear into gear, and stepped on the accelerator. The whole car started to fly at a very fast speed. Compared with ordinary steam cars, they are much better in terms of starting speed, power, smoothness, controllability, and torque output range. People sitting in the car, although there is noise in the car, but this The noise is compared to that of an ordinary steam engine. It has to be much lower. As soon as the window is closed, even if the car starts speeding on the dirt road, there is still no noise in the car. It is estimated to be only 40 to 50 decibels.
After getting in the car, the governor stopped talking and just looked at the scenery outside the car window. On the contrary, Gao Tianqi was very interested in the car, so he started chatting with Zhang Su. The atmosphere in the car wasn't too awkward.
"Is the engine used in this car the same as the aircraft engine in the Zhulongling?"
"No, the engine used in this car is much smaller than the engine used in aircraft. The cylinder volume is only 5 liters and more than 320 horsepower. The engine on the Air Cavalry Type 1 has a cylinder volume of 18.5 liters and a comprehensive horsepower output of 1,500 horsepower. Over 20 years old, the two engines are also slightly different in specific structure. This is the latest engine product produced by Zhulongling's engine factory. This car and the ones just now are the first batch of trial installations given to Zhulong Legion. The vehicle, which is not yet officially produced and equipped, is used to find problems... "
"Is there a problem?"
"have!"
"what is the problem?"
"That's because this car is so easy to drive. Anyone who has driven this car will never want to touch the previous steam-powered cars again..."
Gao Tianqi looked at Zhang Su who was driving the car with a serious look on his face. He didn't know whether what Zhang Su just said was humorous or whether he thought it was really a problem.
While talking, the military off-road vehicle had already rushed out of the mountain road in the valley and arrived at a wider flat field. There were no kilometers here at all, but the terrain was flat and open, and it was a piece of hard land. , as the gears changed and the accelerator gradually increased, the speed of the off-road vehicle gradually reached close to 200 kilometers per hour. This is a speed that ordinary steam-powered vehicles can never reach. Only expensive internal combustion alcohol like the Cyrus This can only be achieved by cars on standard roads.
After driving for half an hour, the car gradually came from the wilderness to an inhabited area, onto a formal highway. On both sides of the highway, there were large areas of farmland and towns. The scene of the summer wheat harvest in the farmland brought prosperity and peace. joy.
When passing by a wheat field being harvested on the side of the road, he saw the people in the field busy and busy. The supervisor asked Zhang Su to stop the car, parked the car on the side of the road, and then got out of the car to harvest it in person. I looked at the edge of the wheat field, picked up a handful of heavy wheat ears and rubbed them.
The ears of wheat are rubbed open, revealing the full and crystal clear wheat inside. This wheat seems to be a new variety. The wheat grains inside are not only full, but the ends of the wheat grains are also somewhat slender. In the sun, the wheat has a shiny The golden light, if you look carefully, the color of the wheat grains is a little reddish among the golden color. Just holding it in your hand, you can smell the natural fragrance of the wheat grains.
Even if he doesn't farm, the supervisor knows that what he is holding is definitely a handful of good wheat. He has never seen this type of wheat before.
"Fellow, how is the harvest here this year?"
At this time, the supervisor had a friendly face and was chatting with a farmer in his forties who was harvesting wheat in the field.
There is a steam wheat harvester harvesting wheat in the wheat field. The farmer in his forties is sorting out the wheat straw left by the steam wheat harvester and shoveling it onto the oxcart.
Seeing that Zhang Su was wearing the military uniform of the Candle Dragon Legion, and that the governor and Gao Tianqi were both extraordinary, the farmer temporarily stopped what he was doing and pulled off the gauze sweat towel covering his mouth and nose. He showed a dark and honest face and replied with a smile, "This year's harvest is better than last year. I estimate that we can harvest more than 800 kilograms per mu of land this year..."
The fields in Zhulongling are naturally not as fertile and fertile as the fields in Ninghe County. In ordinary fields, even if they are well taken care of, there are probably more than 700 kilograms of wheat per acre, so the farmer said that more than 800 kilograms is considered a bumper harvest.
The Superintendent nodded, "What was your harvest per acre last year?"
"It's only about 700 kilograms!"
"Why are there so many more this year?"
"Thanks to our Lord Qianji Zhenren of the Zhulong Territory. When Zhenren Qianji came to the Zhulong Territory last year, he had people distribute a lot of wheat seeds. At that time, everyone saw that the wheat seeds were larger than the wheat seeds we usually leave. It was still full, so I planted it with hesitation. I didn’t expect that this kind of wheat would have such a high yield. A few days ago, some harvesters came to see this wheat and were willing to buy it at a price 30% higher than the market price. I didn’t even think about it. For sale, after so many years of farming, this is the first time I have seen such good wheat. I plan to use the wheat harvested this year for sowing... "
"If you want to plant seeds, you won't need so much!"
"I still have several relatives in Lingfeng County. I heard that their summer grain harvest this year has also been cut off. I heard a few days ago that my summer grain harvest here has not been cut off. Several relatives came to see me. As soon as they saw me Several people in this wheat field asked me to leave some seeds for them to take back in a few days. Moreover, this kind of wheat can definitely feed people. Even if I can’t use up all the seeds, I will keep it at home. Eat, but don’t want to sell it. Food disasters are happening everywhere now. It’s better to prepare more food at home. When you are about to starve, no matter how much gold and silver you have, you can’t use it as food... "
After chatting with the farmer for a while, the supervisor returned to the car. Gao Tianqi and Zhang Su also changed positions, with Zhang Su as the navigator and Gao Tianqi driving.
…
An hour later, the off-road vehicle drove to the Yangui Mountains more than 100 kilometers south of Xuantian City. When entering this area, there were already inspection posts and personnel on the road. Zhang Su was seen sitting on After two more inspections on the car, the off-road vehicle finally drove into a manor by the lake.
This manor has beautiful scenery, with mountains on its back and a lake on its side. It is a rare scenic spot. The three people got out of the car. The governor and Gao Tianqi immediately noticed that in this manor, it seemed that there were lakes and mountains everywhere, and the scenery was beautiful, but just behind the lakes and mountains, However, it was heavily guarded, with open posts and hidden sentries everywhere. As soon as the three people got out of the car, the Governor and Gao Tianqi were locked by the eyes of those hiding in the dark. If they were not all knights, they would not be able to sense these arrangements. Come.
Gao Tianqi led the two people directly through a garden and a pine forest in the manor to a leisure dock area by the lake.
There are already many people in the dock area. A group of stunning ladies, each with their own beauty and beauty, are standing in the pavilion beside the dock, talking and laughing, pointing to the center of the lake...
In the middle of the lake, a steel-hulled boat was speeding on the lake at an alarming speed. The tail of the boat dragged a white line, almost flying against the lake. During the rapid speed, a series of splashes were made on the boat. Crystal-like waves, under the sun, and a small rainbow looming at the stern of the boat...
Whenever the boat bumped on the lake and then flew up, a bunch of children's excited exclamations came from the boat, as well as Zhang Tie's hearty and joyful laughter, "How about it, daddy is awesome..." (. )
