Chapter 231 Bet

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Li Ang stood up in front of everyone's eyes, his tone was calm and indifferent.

"..."

Bian Chenpei narrowed his eyes, thoughts racing in his mind.

Taihao Mountain, Jing State, Yu State, Chang'an, Li Ang's reputation is everywhere along the way...

The people of Yu State may not know how many sons and daughters Emperor Yu had, and they may not know how many generals and prime ministers Yu State had, but they can definitely tell the name and deeds of Li Ang in the Academy.

When talking about Mr. Li Xiaolang, a proud expression always appears on his face.

It's as if today's life is what Xuegong and Li Ang have changed,

How ridiculous!!

Everything in the world is given by Haotian.

Birth, old age, illness and death, misfortunes and blessings, are all arranged by Haotian.

This group of Yu people are not grateful for Haotian's gift, but they are grateful to some academy, Li Ang.

It seems that Taihao Mountain has been silent for too long and has been indifferent to worldly affairs for too long, causing ordinary people to forget that Haotian is the creator and master of all things.

So much so that today, he actually dares to have the so-called "flying" ambition.

Bian Chenpei stared at Li Ang and said indifferently: "What do you have to say?"

"It's not a high-level discussion, I just want to ask a question."

Li Ang smiled and said: "Your Excellency, it should be a human being, right?"

"What do you mean?"

Bian Chenpei said angrily: "Are you insulting me?"

"Of course...not."

Li Ang paused for a moment and said to himself: "It's just that when human babies are born, they are unable to speak, cannot lift with hands, and cannot lift with shoulders.

When you are one year old, you can walk, and when you are one and a half years old, you can talk. When you are older, you can learn to run and read poems.

No one knows everything right from birth.

Since you claim to be a human being, you should understand this truth."

What does it mean to claim to be a human being?

The muscles on Bian Chenpei's face trembled slightly, and when the words came to his mouth, they turned into a cold snort.

"Sand accumulates to form a tower, and accumulation of water forms an abyss. Everything has its own laws of development.

Just because today's aircraft can't fly thousands of miles a day doesn't mean it won't be able to do so in the future."

Li Ang smiled and said: "As for the manned aircraft you just mentioned, maybe now the academy can also make corresponding model aircraft."

"Huh?"

The most surprised person was not Bian Chenpei, but the teaching assistant Ou Zhiyuan on the podium.

As a disciple of Su Feng, he is very aware of the current progress of the academy's research on aircraft.

There is still a long way to go before it can carry people effectively.

If you insist on carrying people, you can only enlarge the scale of the aircraft model and use more powerful talismans to push it.

Just like that, the controllability of the model aircraft will become extremely poor.

What's the difference between sticking a wind charm on Chao Ren and blowing him up to the sky?

If you really want to show it off, the other party may laugh at you even more.

"The sun rises..."

Ou Zhiyuan lowered his voice and reminded.

Li Ang smiled and waved to him, indicating that there was no need to worry. He turned to Bian Chenpei and continued: "I wonder if you dare to bet?"

"..."

Bian Chenpei couldn't help but fall into silence.

Everyone's eyes in the entire classroom fell on him, and Li Ang's sarcastic expression, which was half-smiling but not smiling, made him feel inexplicably angry.

"How to bet?"

"The academy can build an aircraft capable of manned navigation within three days. It does not require silk threads or talismans. It can fly more than two miles above the ground with only ordinary human power."

Li Ang said: "How is it?"

"Sunrise?!"

This time it wasn't just Ou Zhiyuan, Yang Yu and others couldn't help but remind him.

It’s okay to say that you don’t need Niansi, but you don’t need talismans?

How can this possibly fly?

Even in the legendary story, it took him three years to make the wooden kite of Gongshu Ban.

Li Ang smiled and waved to his friends, saying not to worry.

Bian Chenpei thought for a moment and said coldly: "What is the bet?"

"The equivalent of one hundred thousand gold, mithril, orichalcum and other expensive metals,"

Li Ang smiled and said: "How?"

One hundred thousand dollars...

Some students in the audience couldn't help but were dumbfounded. Although many of them came from wealthy families and their horizons had broadened a lot after coming to the Academy, they had never seen a huge gamble of 100,000 yuan...

And those students in higher grades seemed even more surprised.

It is equivalent to 100,000 guan, but it does not mean that it only costs 100,000 guan.

Fine gold and orichalcum are generally priceless. If you really want to collect so many expensive metals, you will have to pay at least an additional 70%, 80% or even higher.

Even if Bian Chenpei is an outstanding disciple of Taihao Mountain and has a noble birth, this is still a big fortune for him, the kind that requires a lot of work.

Bian Chenpei squinted his eyes and said, "Do you have so much money?"

"Yu Guoxue Palace has a patent office. It just so happens that I am the owner of several patents."

Li Ang took out a small bag made of silk and satin from his arms and placed it gently on the table.

One corner of the small bag was open, and inside was a thick stack of flying money with a denomination of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Li Ang has really a lot of cash on hand. Even if he spends money like water, often buys luxury goods, and collects a bunch of antiques and cultural relics at home, he still has more than 200,000 guan of wealth, and every month he has tens of thousands of guan, ranging from 100,000 guan to 100,000 guan.

of patent income.

Except for the large families such as Wu Surname and Qi Wang,

Some ordinary so-called aristocratic families may not have as much cash as him.

This is based on Li Ang's initiative to give part of the profits from allicin and penicillin to hospitals in various states.

"Okay."

Bian Chenpei retracted his gaze from the wallet and said coldly: "Three days later, a human-driven aircraft, one hundred thousand fine gold. It's a deal."

"A word is settled."

The Haotian bell rang, announcing the end of this class.

"get out of class is over, students who have classes next period should go quickly."

Ou Zhiyuan coughed and urged the students to leave the classroom, while he walked off the podium, came to Li Ang, and said with a wry smile: "Risheng, you still have the same temperament as before."

"Since the other party is not friendly, there is no need to be too polite."

Li Ang glanced at Bian Chenpei and other Taihao Mountain disciples who were leaving the classroom, and said casually: "It has to happen like this."

In Taihao Mountain, there are many people who can't stand the academy.

Bian Chenpei was just the first one to jump out.

If we do not strike back harshly at this time, occupy the public opinion position, and wait until the other party takes advantage of the sect to influence people's hearts, the consequences will be even worse.

Might as well make it clear now.

"But, the sun rises,"

Song Shaoyuan frowned and said softly: "How do you plan to make the aircraft fly without using talismans? Manpower is limited."

"Sophisticated and ingenious design, suitable materials, excellent forging technology, plus a little knowledge of aerodynamics."

Li Ang said: "I'm sure it's about 80% or 90%. It depends on the weather that day."

"Weather?"

"I hope the weather that day is good enough and the sun is bright enough, so that it can light up the other person's face."

Li Ang smiled slightly and walked out of the classroom door to the forging workshop.
