Immediately, he faced the battleship and said, "How is the ship? Are there any other problems?"
"do not have much left."
"After you solved the coal problem before, the ship's kinetic energy has increased."
Li Xiaogong said truthfully: "As long as there is need, this ship can go to the battlefield at any time!" ??
"That's good."
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Accumulate experience and seize the time to prepare to build the second ship."
Listen to this.
Li Xiaogong looked troubled: "I'm afraid the second ship will be a bit difficult."
"Why?"
Li Chengqian looked at him puzzled.
"The imperial court won't give you any money..."
Li Xiaogong said: "Actually, I told you before this happened. When we were building the first ship, the Ministry of Revenue's money was coming and going."
"There are still some people who keep turning a deaf ear to His Majesty and ask us to stop building this battleship."
"Thankfully, Your Majesty is sensible and didn't completely stop the money."
Li Xiaogong turned to look at Li Chengqian and said: "It is so difficult to build one ship, but it is even more difficult to build the second one."
"As for the money, I'll figure it out."
"Uncle Huang just needs to continue building ships."
Li Chengqian knew very well that these ships were the future of the Tang Dynasty.
How far Datang can go in the future depends entirely on these technologies.
If these technologies cannot be improved to a level as soon as possible, others will not be able to catch up.
Then it is very likely that Datang will become someone else's bag.
So no matter what, Li Chengqian would not let Datang lag behind others.
"Uncle Huang."
Li Chengqian pointed at the battleship and said: "This battleship is not the end for Datang, it is just the beginning."
Looking at his back, Li Xiaogong felt a little dazed.
But soon, he came back to his senses and said calmly: "As long as His Highness is in need, I will do my best."
"okay!"
"we Let’s go up there and walk around.”
Li Chengqian said and stepped onto the battleship first.
Now this battleship is indeed almost complete.
The infrastructure has basically been completed, and the latest cannons developed by the Wuhan Research Institute have also been installed.
It won't be long before this battleship will become the overlord of the sea.
After walking around on the battleship with Li Xiaogong, Li Chengqian suddenly remembered something.
"What has Chongyi been busy with lately?"
"Just relax at home."
Previously, Li Chongyi had been in charge of the Wuhan Academy.
But because of someone's frame-up, he was removed from his official position.
Now, I am just raising my children at home.
"It's been such a long break."
Li Chengqian said slowly: "It's time for him to come out and do something."
Li Xiaogong's heart moved and he asked: "What are you going to ask that bastard to do, Your Highness?"
"I can't tell the emperor about this yet."
Li Chengqian stopped and said, "Uncle Huang, please be busy first. I'll go find Chongyi."
With that said, he turned around and walked off the battleship.
Seeing this guy's angry appearance, Li Xiaogong was stunned and shook his head helplessly.
"Today's young people just can't keep their composure..."
…
Hejian Palace.
When Li Chengqian came over.
Li Chongyi was playing wildly in the yard with his daughter.
"How did you come?"
Li Chongyi turned to look at Li Chengqian and asked.
"I was afraid that you would be worried to death at home, so I came over to take a look."
Li Chengqian said angrily, and then stepped in front of Yu'er.
He hasn't seen this little girl for a long time.
In the blink of an eye, he has grown up, and he has become cuter and more beautiful.
The little girl hid behind her father and looked at him timidly.
Li Chengqian pinched Tao'er's little face: "Little Tao'er, have you ever missed your uncle?"
Taoer glanced at him, then raised his head to look at his father.
"Tell him, I didn't think about it!"
Li Chongyi held his daughter in his arms and said, "This is a bad guy. Stay away from him from now on, okay?"
"Hey!" ??
"How do you talk?"
Li Chengqian said dissatisfied: "Can I steal your daughter or what?"
"Why can't you?"
Li Chongyi said: "Look at your eyes, my daughter is drooling just looking at her!"
"Is there any?"
Li Chengqian wiped the corners of his mouth and smiled.
He raised his eyes and looked at the porcelain doll-like little girl and said, "I do envy you a little for having such a beautiful, well-behaved and sensible girl."
"Not like me."
"That little bastard in my family does everything in heaven and earth all day long."
"Yesterday I took him to his grandpa and had him plucked out."
Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly and said: "It's better to have a daughter. I have to work hard to have one when I go back."
"Hehe!"
Li Chongyi curled his lips and said, "Do you think everyone is lucky enough to have a daughter?"
"Okay, okay!"
"Stop showing off."
Li Chengqian raised his head and said: "If you are showing off, I will ask my father for a marriage tomorrow."
"My brother is a bit small though."
"But the taro is not big. If it doesn't work, I will take it back to the East Palace and raise it for a few years!"
Li Chengqian stretched out his hand and tapped Tao'er's little face and said, "Daughter-in-law, do you want to come back to the East Palace with me? Your aunt will prepare delicious food for you every day!"
I heard something delicious.
Taro'er's eyes suddenly widened.
However, she still didn't dare to speak and looked up at her father.
"Did you see it?" "My daughter doesn't like your benefits."
Li Chongyi turned around and walked towards the hall, saying as he walked: "I happen to be having breakfast here, do you want to have some together?"
"Of course you have to eat your treat."
Li Chengqian followed him slowly: "When you were a child, you often went to work for me."
"Look at how stingy you are."
Li Chongyi rolled his eyes and said, "As a prince, can't you be more generous?"
"The prince's money is not money!"
The two of them grew up together, and they were trying to undermine each other. That was all basic operations.
Wait until you get inside the house.
Not long after, Sun Tingfang came up with a group of maids carrying meals.
Li Chengqian cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, sister-in-law!"
"Your Highness, you're welcome."
Sun Tingfang bowed and saluted, and said softly: "You guys talk first. If you need anything, just say hello. There is a maid waiting outside."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Royal rules are very strict. When men are eating and chatting, women have to avoid them.
And Li Chengqian didn't like these stinky rules either.
He said directly: "Sister-in-law, let's eat some together here. Besides, you still need someone to take care of you."
Sun Tingfang was stunned and turned to look at Li Chongyi.
Li Chongyi nodded to her and said, "You're welcome to talk to this guy. He owes us this."
"Eh!"
"How can you talk like this!"
Li Chengqian said: "Since when did I owe you?"
"What do you think?"
Li Chongyi glared and said, "If it weren't for you, would I have been taken to Dali Temple to live in a prison for three days?"
What he was talking about, of course, was the time when he was framed by Cui Yinghe, lost his official position, and was imprisoned in Dali Temple.
As for this matter, Li Chengqian really couldn't refute it.
He rolled his eyes and said: "Look at your little belly, but don't worry, I'm here just to make it up to you..."
