Chapter 838 The motorcycle is hard to catch.
Ayiman smiled and said, "Plane is made of iron. I feel it is impossible to let a pile of iron fly in the sky and carry people. That big balloon is more reliable..."
"Big balloons are actually not reliable. Airplanes are reliable."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "In another two or three years, Junior Brother Pang Jia's research will have a breakthrough."
Ye Kun felt that helicopter operation was easier than aircraft operation.
The principle of a helicopter taking off is to adjust the speed and angle of the propeller, which Ye Kun knows.
As long as the materials are available and a gasoline engine is used, a helicopter can be made.
As for flying speedboats, the technology is simpler, but they are not durable and are more prone to accidents.
In the world before Ye Kun traveled through time, before airplanes appeared, there were many airships, and some people even took airships to cross the Atlantic Ocean. However, airships were prone to explosions and leaks, and were difficult to withstand hurricanes. They had too many shortcomings and were eventually completely replaced by airplanes.
In the era of intelligent industry, airships have been almost completely forgotten.
Young people at that time didn’t even know what an airship was.
Ye Kun also thought about developing airship technology.
But on second thought, things that are destined to be eliminated can just be played with for fun, there is no need to research and produce them on a large scale.
Ayiman still didn't believe it and said with a smile: "I have seen wheat ripen thousands of times, but I have never seen an iron ship go up to the sky. The emperor said it is reliable, so I will wait and see."
Ye Kun smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Junior Brother Pang Jia’s research results will definitely give you a refreshing experience.”
Tintin smiled and said, "Our cars are also made of iron. They don't need mules or horses, and they can run on the road just the same. Although airplanes haven't been developed yet, I believe in my senior brother's vision and he will definitely develop one."
He Tiantian also nodded: "Since I followed the emperor, basically all the technological products designed by the emperor have been manufactured."
Ye Kun suddenly asked: "Tiantian, what do you think is our most powerful technology now?"
He Tiantian thought about it and said in deep thought:
"In the military, the most powerful weapon is of course guns and artillery. Machine guns fire bullets like raindrops. Three or five machine guns can have a killing power greater than that of a thousand arrows fired at once.
In terms of communications, there are wireless telegraphs, telephones, and now wireless radio.
In terms of transportation, there are cars, ships and trains, as well as cement and asphalt roads.
In terms of people’s livelihood, it’s porcelain and glass, brown sugar, white sugar and milk powder…”
Ye Kun suddenly sighed: "Our technology has been developed for more than 20 years, but it still has not contributed much to people's livelihood. In other words, our technology is far from enough to benefit the people."
Tintin said, "Your Majesty, that's not the case. Our cars, trains and ships, our national and provincial highways and canals, not only serve the court, but also greatly facilitate the people.
Our wireless telegraphs have also gradually begun to provide services to the people. Telegraph offices have been set up in the five major capitals, as well as the Cheshi city in the western region, to enable quick communication. When ordinary people have urgent matters, they can also send telegrams to their relatives and friends. "
Ye Kun frowned: "Ordinary people can also use telegraphs?"
Ding Ding smiled and said, "The five major capitals and some other large cities have set up private telegraph offices. Ordinary people can send telegrams by spending money. I have an apprentice whose hometown is Chengdu. Last month, his mother passed away, and his hometown in Chengdu sent a telegram to announce the death."
"Private Telegraph Office?"
Ye Kun nodded and said with a smile: "This telegraph office is very necessary. It greatly facilitates the people. I think that any large city with a population of more than 100,000 can set up a telegraph office to serve the people."
Ding Ding shrugged: "We have to do this slowly. We should start with a number of important cities, and then gradually promote it to smaller cities."
Ye Kun nodded.
Sun Yi was drinking when he suddenly remembered something. He took out a piece of plastic from his backpack and handed it to Ye Kun: "Brother, look, this is a photo taken with our newest camera."
"Is this... a woman?"
Ye Kun looked at the blurry white shadow on the film and smiled: "This photo is very different from what I imagined. The research on photosensitive materials is still not in place. I will continue to think about it."
He Tiantian smiled and said, "This is me."
"But I can't tell. Not at all."
"I said it didn't look like one either, but they said it was me." He Tiantian covered her mouth and laughed, "I said it looked like a ghost."
Sun Yi smiled and said, "If you take a picture of a building with a camera, it still looks somewhat like it. You can see the outline of the house and the doors and windows."
"Take your time to study, don't rush. There is no end to the development of science and technology, and it requires generations to slowly explore."
Ye Kun encouraged everyone.
After lunch, Ayiman was very excited to experience riding a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Ye Kun had no choice but to accompany Ayiman and ride a motorcycle to the Science and Technology City.
Sun Yi drove the car himself, and drove very slowly.
Ayiman rolled her eyes at Ye Kun: "Isn't it said that a motorcycle can travel a thousand miles a day? How come it's not as fast as a horse-drawn carriage?"
"That's for your safety. I dare not speed up."
"Then speed up, I'm not afraid!"
"Okay, Junior Brother Sun, drive faster." Ye Kun had no choice but to cooperate.
Sun Yi received the order and suddenly stepped on the accelerator.
Woohoo——!
The motorcycle roared and whizzed away.
Suddenly, Queen Ayiman felt what it meant to be pushed on the back!
The strong wind blew Ayiman's hair into the air.
Ayiman felt very excited and hugged Ye Kun's arm: "Your Majesty, the motorcycle is really fast and comfortable. Please give me one too!"
Ye Kun faced the wind and smiled, "The current motorcycle technology is not mature enough. Wait a little longer, I will ask the Science and Technology City to customize a few luxury motorcycles for you!"
"Keep your word and don't lie to me!"
"a man of his words!"
"It's not a horse that's hard to catch, it's a motorcycle that's hard to catch!"
Queen Ayman's happy laughter was left in the autumn breeze.
Half an hour later, Ye Kun brought Ayiman to the Science and Technology City.
Fortunately, the motorcycle was quite accommodating and there were no accidents or breakdowns along the way.
Ye Kun instructed Ayiman: "Your Majesty, you can have fun by yourself. I will arrange two assistants and a tour guide to accompany you. I will go to the Radio Research Institute to check out the wireless communication equipment."
Ayiman hugged Ye Kun's arm and said with a smile: "I will go with you. Wherever you go, I will go."
The people of Loulan are open-minded.
It is normal for young men and women to walk hand in hand on the street.
But in China, such intimate behavior is regarded as frivolous and disrespectful.
In recent years, Ye Kun has promoted new culture and advocated free love, and the conservative atmosphere in China has changed.
Ye Kun nodded: "Okay, let's go and see it together."
In the Science and Technology City, there are seven radio research institutes and more than two hundred radio researchers.
Ye Kun casts a wide net to discover talents among the vast crowd.
The two young men from the Third Research Institute, one named Wang Xie and the other named Wan Yu, were the ones who developed the wireless communication this time.
Both of them are under 30 years old, which is the time when they are full of energy.
He Tiantian also rushed over, took Ye Kun to inspect, and introduced Wang Xie and Wan Yu to him.
