The hot air balloon flew at high altitude for more than two hours before Murong Shan began to control the hot air balloon to slowly land.
However, many people around were excited and wanted to ride and experience it.
People were so enthusiastic that Xiaozhu Xiaoyue was a little frightened and had to ask Zhang Hao for instructions. Zhang Hao nodded, but after the test just now, the hot air balloon can only carry five people at a time, and one person needs to be left to control the heat.
The balloon can only carry four passengers at a time.
Zhang Hao looked at everyone scrambling for the first place and smiled lightly. This hot air balloon was originally intended for public commercial use.
In this world of spiritual practice, the military value of hot air balloons is temporarily difficult to reflect, as they are slow and have almost no defense. In contrast, the commercial prospects are greater.
Of course, Zhang Hao doesn't mind selling hot air balloons to various countries for military use - as long as you buy them, we can produce them and we will also be responsible for the training.
Zhang Hao watched for a while and then left with Zhou Xueyao. There were more things to do. Since the hot air balloon was successful, Zhang Hao did not need to worry about the airship. The internal combustion engine also entered the final testing stage, and the airship
The powertrain is also easy to fix.
And even if there is no internal combustion engine, there is no problem. The airship is inherently slow and the air resistance is relatively small. It can be propelled by spells or formations - it may be faster than the internal combustion engine.
Because of the above reasons, Zhang Hao was not prepared to use hot air balloons as military equipment. However, the original plan for hot air balloon research was to explore high altitudes, and spiritual energy began to thin above an altitude of 20,000 feet.
Zhang Hao and the elites of Dayang Group are eager to understand - this is also one of the focuses of the next step of work. Only by figuring out what aura is, can we practice better, especially better understand what the transformation stage is.
What kind of realm, what kind of existence is the spirit of fairy spirit!
After Zhang Hao and Zhou Xueyao returned, Zhou Xueyao went straight to her research base. Now, Fairy Zhou has built the framework of the periodic table of elements - it may still be a little imperfect. Zhou Xueyao is even more eager to know what this world is made of.
What it consists of.
The new field of chemistry, combined with her alchemy knowledge, etc., also made Zhou Xueyao more and more excited. She vaguely felt that she seemed to have touched the core of the world.
Scientific research, especially the kind of research that makes rapid progress and keeps getting closer to the origin, is addictive!
That kind of exploration of the origin of the world, that kind of pursuit of truth, is the most fascinating.
Zhang Hao inspected the production base, ports, etc., and everything satisfied Zhang Hao.
Today's port is already bustling. Although Xuanzhen Sect lost four steel warships and Dayang Group sold two more to Canglan Country, there are still seven steel warships coming and going in the port.
However, in the past three months, due to the construction of a new shipyard and so on, Dayang Group has not produced new warships. However, there are already five 10,000-ton (Iron Duke-class) warships in the shipyard that have entered the outfitting stage. It is expected that the largest number of warships will be built.
In one month, Dayang Group was able to add five more steel battleships.
However, these five steel battleships have already been booked. Two from Dayang Group, two from Xuanzhen Sect, and one from Liu Xinyu.
In addition, there is a 20,000-ton battleship under production.
Liu Xinyu used the wealth collected from various countries to pay for it; Xuanzhen Sect was relatively at a loss. The three steel battleships that had been lost had to be paid out of his own pocket. In other words, of the 10 battleships originally planned by Xuanzhen Sect, there are now only 7 left.
The quota is up.
Three months have passed, and the Xuanzhen Sect is still in distress - the impact of the original incident was so great that now technology has blossomed everywhere, including the Xiaoyao Sect. The advantages that the Xuanzhen Sect had suddenly appeared before have suddenly disappeared.
But all this has nothing to do with Zhang Hao. At least Zhang Hao doesn't care about these things now. Anyway, he has already obtained all the benefits of belonging to Dayang Group.
Recently, there has been an explosion of industry and commerce in the entire Fertile Continent. However, if you want to develop industry and commerce quickly, you need to purchase machinery and equipment from Dayang Group, especially machine tools. Although it is just a simple machine tool, it is not easy to do it well. Especially machine tools.
The steam turbine driven by spirit stones that must be used is still only produced by Dayang Group.
As a result, when industry and commerce broke out all over the country, Dayang Group's orders were somewhat reported, and orders for key equipment such as machine tools had been scheduled until the end of the year. Even so, orders continued to increase.
Especially the standards of Dayang Group are also spreading rapidly.
Dayang Group used a technology leak to cultivate the market. Maybe someone has discovered Dayang Group's conspiracy, but it is of no use anymore.
The technology has been leaked, the market has matured, and it is too late to say anything.
After Zhang Hao inspected the port, he was ready to leave. But at this moment, he saw several warships drifting towards the sea in the distance from the south.
To be precise, there were three ships, and Zhang Hao could tell at a glance that they belonged to Dayang Group.
Zhang Hao suddenly frowned - the battleship just set out eight days ago and sailed south. According to the past situation, it would take at least twenty days to return. Why did it come back so early?
Moreover, there were four battleships when we set out, but when we came back, there were only three left. The smallest, the 4,000-ton displacement Zhiyuan battleship, disappeared.
A master flew from the battleship and soon came to the port and saw Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao also saw the other party and knew him (Zhang Hao knew almost all the Yuanying Stages of Dayang Group). Looking at the hurried and embarrassed appearance of the other party, Zhang Hao
Frowning, "Ma Rong, what's going on?"
Ma Rong opened his mouth, looked around, and whispered: "We encountered mirages again. This time, there were five mirages gathered, all of them in the transformation stage. The Zhiyuan sank.
We almost used up all the artillery shells. But the mirages are clever. They hide in the deep sea, and there is almost nothing we can do."
Zhang Hao's pupils shrank: "What I was worried about finally happened. How are you doing?"
Zhang Hao didn't ask about the battleships, but about the people. Warmth flashed in Ma Rong's eyes. One of the big reasons why they were willing to serve under Zhang Hao as Nascent Soul stage was that Zhang Hao did have an admirable side.
When an accident occurs, instead of asking about the damage, etc., first ask how the person is doing.
It seems like a simple thing, but its impact on his subordinates is immeasurable.
Ma Rong continued to whisper: "A dozen ordinary sailors were lost. The rest are not serious."
Zhang Hao sighed: "Don't make any noise about this matter for the time being. There is no need to create tension. Let everyone dock first and let everyone rest first.
Wait another month or so for our new warships to be launched and kill them!"
In the past, Zhang Hao, Dayang Group and Mirage have always maintained a tacit understanding - not to attack each other. Unexpectedly, after a few months, these beasts couldn't help it anymore.
After a pause, Zhang Hao asked again, "Where is Fu Yun who is accompanying the ship this time?"
"One battleship was slapped on the tail by a mirage, and the leak was serious. The keel on the left side was twisted, and it was all supported by Senior Fu Yun. The other two battleships also suffered a lot of damage."
Zhang Hao took a deep breath and said, "Let the warship enter the dock directly and don't dock at the port."
After a while, the shore was still noisy. Although Zhang Hao didn't want to make any noise, the three warships were so big that they couldn't hide them. Especially at a close distance, everyone could even see the destroyed superstructure and the dents.
The armored ship's side.
At first glance, it was clear that a big battle was taking place. And this kind of battle was obviously different from an explosion. Someone on the spot shouted: We have encountered a sea monster!
Some of the crew members' families were even tensed up.
The warship entered the dock directly without docking. The newly expanded dock is very large, with five large ship spaces - 30,000-ton class, and five small ship spaces - 10,000-ton class.
Zhang Hao personally inspected the condition of the battleships. The first battleship was one in which the middle part and the left side were dented by almost a quarter. One of the seven keels on the bottom of the ship was broken and two were twisted on the left side. Fortunately, the main keel was fine.
On the outside of the battleship, you can still see the traces of the mirage dragon's tail and the marks of scales. Zhang Hao was secretly shocked when he saw it. These marine monsters are really powerful and terrifying. Zhang Hao knew very well how hard the steel was.
To be able to leave such a mark on steel, this mirage... is probably not in the late stage of divine transformation, right?
Fu Yun finally came out, his face a little pale, "The mirage that attacked us this time is about 150 meters long. It can only be contained by a large number of depth bomb attacks."
Zhang Hao looked at the battleship and said in a very calm tone: "Let's take a rest for a month and try our best to restore what happened this time. Next time, let's go slay the dragon!"
