Xia Fan suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Yes, he was moved - just like the first time he sat in the shabby Santana in the driving school, held the steering wheel, and let the mechanical creation under him move forward according to his own will.
What boy wouldn't want to drive a behemoth
Although he was only controlling one leg now, and it was still made of wood, he seemed to be able to see the thing galloping on the ground.
To be honest, he had some selfish motives for making this suggestion. The human-shaped "machine beast" can seamlessly connect with his electromagnetic weapons, and the metal shell is naturally grounded. The combination of the two can be regarded as a heavy weapon capable of both offense and defense.
But now it seems that this suggestion is really just right - the starting points of the two worlds are different. The power source here has been miniaturized as soon as it came out. It can be used directly as a joint to save the trouble of transmission. It is equipped with a humanoid gyroscope. The instrument is used to adjust its posture, and its flexibility is far superior to that of a four-legged structure. If it is further refined in the future, so that these celestial motion instruments can allocate some spare power to drive other devices, the mechanism beast can completely become a mobile combat platform.
However, considering that the other party was an official of the imperial court, Xia Fan did not express these ideas.
"What do you think?" Mo Yun asked expectantly.
"As a principle prototype, it is impeccable." He praised it without hesitation. "It's a pity that it only has one foot. If I had another one, I would want to walk around the villa."
"I can't help it. All the celestial instruments I brought have been used on it." Mo Yun seemed to be relieved, "Placing people high in the sky is indeed a bold and reasonable idea. If it is a new The machine beast has been developed, and at least half of it is due to you."
"Why do you care so much about the machine beast?" Xia Fan asked, moving his wooden leg back and forth. "The invention of the Sky Motion Instrument alone is enough for you to leave a name in history."
Mo Yun was stunned. She was silent for a moment and then blinked in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at comforting others."
"..." Xia Fan just wanted to say that he was serious, "Don't you think it's amazing that this thing can be controlled through Qi?"
"Then it has to have its uses." Mo Yun smiled - Xia Fan noticed that this was the first time she smiled in front of him, "I know you want to say that it has many uses, but in fact Except for the Privy Council and the army, there are very few alchemists in other places, and people like me are already an exception."
Xia Fan wanted to say something more, but he swallowed it when it reached his lips.
This may be the case with history.
When Watt improved the steam engine, the coal mining industry was booming and the demand for mechanical water pumping increased greatly. He just took a fancy to this opportunity and did not expect what changes his results would bring to the world in the future.
Mo Yun might not be able to wait for this day to come either.
No matter how he evaluates its significance now, it is just a lie.
"Can other alchemists who belong to Kun make heavenly motion instruments?" Xia Fan changed the topic.
"If I give you some guidance, it shouldn't be a big problem. But if you want to improve the success rate, you have to let them train for at least one or two years."
He remembered that there seemed to be someone in the headquarters who could match him.
Okay, this person will be transferred out of the evil spirits team later. He will not be allowed to return home unless he masters the talisman carving technique of the Celestial Movement Instrument.
"Just one person isn't enough. The wood and core structure are top secrets of the Ministry of Industry." Mo Yun seemed to have guessed his thoughts and raised his chin slightly, "If you want to know, tell me first." The involute thing. Fair exchange, how about that?"
"Deal." Xia Fan responded.
…
In the evening, the satisfied Mo Yun returned to the palace and had dinner with the princess.
"You seem to go to Xia Fan whenever you have free time these days..." Ning Wanjun looked at her with interest. Anyone could tell that the other party was in a good mood, "I'm a little suspicious. Are you here to see me or Xia Fan?"
"Sorry, I just couldn't control my curiosity for the moment—"
"What's there to apologize for? This is good." Ning Wanjun interrupted with a smile, "I haven't seen you talk so much to a man in a long time."
Mo Yun pondered for a while, "Xia Fan... is different from others."
Not only is he different, he doesn't look like someone who grew up in Qiguo. Now that he thought about it carefully, Mo Yun realized that compared to his wild ideas and complex and vast knowledge, the most incredible thing about him was his speech, behavior, and attitude towards others.
When working together in the Ministry of Industry, even if everyone calls her Mr. Yun, even if she is the leader in the research and development of machine beasts, others will put gender before these relationships - she is a woman first, and their superior officer later. . It seems that it doesn't matter what success you make, what matters is getting her favor. When she was busy, Mo Yun could detect the glances from her subordinates, and when she looked back, they would always look away, pretending to be nonchalant.
If she hadn't said that she would never marry in this life, similar situations would probably be even more obvious.
Compared with the situation in the Mo family, this has been greatly improved.
But there was no such feeling in front of Xia Fan.
When the two talked about machine beasts and arithmetic issues, his attitude was so natural that Mo Yun almost forgot about their gender differences. As long as he enters the category of professional issues, his attention will be focused entirely on the issue itself. Sometimes when the two parties are close, she realizes that the other person is a member of the opposite sex first.
In addition, when he answered questions and explained arithmetic solutions, he had no intention of hiding anything. Not only that, he would even take the initiative to expand on what she asked step by step, until she could no longer understand it. Mo Yun could feel that he was not asking for anything, but simply enjoying it.
Everything he showed was the biggest mockery of the concept of "passing on male rather than female".
When communicating with Xia Fan, Mo Yun felt unprecedentedly relaxed and free.
No wonder there was such a huge contrast between Qiuyue before and after she sent the letter.
During the day, I discuss technology with my colleagues, see old friends every day, and study fascinating arithmetic books at night. This life is much easier than when I was in Gyeonggi.
"It's indeed different. After all, he is the one chosen by me." Ning Wanjun raised the corner of her mouth, but soon returned to her normal expression, "By the way, you stopped by to see me. It's been several days. Won't things with the Ministry of Industry be delayed?" She paused for a moment, "Maybe... you should go back to Gyeonggi."
Mo Yun was stunned for a while, and it took him a while to realize that the princess was... thanking her guest
We had obviously had a good conversation before.
"Can't I stay a little longer?"
"Everyone knows that Princess Guangping is in Jinxia. It's not a good thing if you stay here for too long." Ning Wanjun put down her chopsticks and cleared her throat, "Anyway, I think it's better for you to focus on the Ministry of Industry. ."
The meaning of this sentence is very obvious.
Mo Yun was not a dull person, she could see that the other party did not want her to stay by his side.
In the final analysis, is it still related to that thing that she doesn’t know yet...
This time the silence between the two was particularly long.
Finally, Mo Yun sighed inaudibly, "I understand."
