From Chief to Ball

Let go of her hand, the girl yawned, crossed her fingers together slightly, made a rattling sound, shook her neck and smiled lightly: "Three or five days is long enough for you. You don't come to look for me." I am so busy with so many things, I have to watch this thing every day after class."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, fiddled with his hair a little in front of the small mirror next to him, and carefully put the graffitied painting into the small box, and there was something else in it.

He went out, called a carriage, arrived at the Min County Guild Hall, and after meeting Hu Lin and the others, Hu Lin couldn't help complaining.

"Let me tell you, you really became a shopkeeper, and you hid in the academy when you arrived in the capital. The business of this company is all dependent on me here."

"Brother Zhu, don't complain. You are a management person, and you should do things with money. It stands to reason that if you sell a piece of glass, you will get a dividend."

Hu Lin smiled and said: "Well, don't mention this to me. I told my way, but you said no, you insisted on coming by yourself. I have already prepared the place for you. Our mirrors, glass Ah, steel knives and other things from various new workshops are also on display. It’s just that there are few people interested in it, so you are planning to open a grocery store, right?”

"That's not true. Let people know that we have good things here. There are more messy things in the capital, and we are from Fujian County. We can't afford to provoke you. We have to catch a big fish that is capable and willing to make money. Put it there , It is to let people know that we have something, and those who wish to take the bait."

Chen Jian thought for a while, and then asked, "What do your friends here say?"

Hu Lin knew that what Chen Jian asked was about the club organization, so he shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, a friend said that our ideas are contradictory, I explained it to him, and they still want to meet you. Also, they are not very willing. In this way, many people said that it is okay to discuss together, but they are opposed to such things as parties. Of course, there are also those who are willing.”

Perhaps because he was afraid that Chen Jian would be discouraged, Hu Lin added another sentence at the end, but Chen Jian didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's normal, don't worry. In fact, we are just chatting together in essence. The same idea. Comrades, comrades, with different ambitions, of course there is no need to be together. We can chat together in a few days."

Lin Xi looked at Chen Jian in confusion, and Chen Jian shrugged and said, "It's not something you're interested in."

Immediately understood, he giggled and said, "You don't think you're busy enough?"

"Brother Zhugan's friends in the capital, like him, are full and full. This is a compliment."

Hu Lin laughed for a while, acquiescing to this somewhat bitter joke, but didn't want Lin Xi to say casually: "According to what you said, you group of people who are full are used as heads, and those who want to be full are used as arms? "

"Uh……"

Hu Lin laughed halfway, choking on this sentence, looked at Chen Jian, Chen Jian said with a smile: "It seems to be right. Well, let's not talk about this, let's get busy with our business company first."

Lin Xi stuck out her tongue secretly, and pulled Chen Jian quietly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Chen Jian didn't take it seriously. Originally, he didn't plan to rely on this party to make big news, but just made a template for future preparations.

Fortunately, Hu Lin didn't care too much about it. Since Chen Jian said to prepare for the business company first, he took advantage of the trend to skip this section.

Several people walked into a large courtyard, where several employees of the trading company were busy unfolding the huge spherical cloth bag that Chen Jian brought from Mincheng.

Along the way, Hu Lin was very curious about what this big cloth bag was for, and finally couldn't help asking, "Brother Chen, what are you going to do?"

"Advertise our glass, mirrors, and all kinds of steel knives. If you want more people to know, you have to be ingenious."

"It won't be like last time, will it?"

"Of course not. I can guarantee that no one has tried this ingenuity."

While talking and joking, several people brought a large bellows borrowed from the capital, and blasted the mouth of the huge spherical cloth bag with force.

It was a long process, and several people took turns to pull the bellows like an old man with asthma.

As more and more wind blows inside, the huge spherical cloth bag gradually unfolds.The wind was not strong, but because the cloth bag was so big that it had a diameter of dozens of steps, it was shaken back and forth by the slight wind, and it looked as if it was about to be blown up.

Hu Lin looked at it for a while, then asked, "Why, you want to fly?"

This was just a joke, but Chen Jian nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, I want to fly."

All the people present were stunned, but these words came out of Chen Jian's mouth, but they naturally felt that what sounded ridiculous seemed true.

Lin Xi suddenly understood what Chen Jian said before, and said pleasantly, "You said you want to take me to see a new world, do you mean flying to the sky to see it?"

"Yes. Didn't expect that?"

Two dimples appeared on Lin Xi's smiling cheeks, and she murmured: "I thought you were going to give me a new kind of lens to let me see the stars. After seeing the smallest world, I subconsciously thought I wanted to see the largest world. "

"Looking at the stars? You are not good at counting, and you can't read them. I will take you to catch the stars."

Hu Lin clicked his tongue and said, "Brother Chen, I didn't see that you still have such idle thoughts. How do you know this thing can fly?"

Chen Jianshun said nonsense: "Haven't you seen a flying sky lantern? I figured out how big a flying sky lantern can hold a piece of candle, and then figured how many candles Lin Xi and I hold to make a margin. Hey, something Are you all ready?"

"Get ready. I really didn't expect you to come this way."

As he spoke, he brought over a large basket of advertisements printed with movable type, and a pile of wooden boxes with small cloth parachutes prepared by Chen Jian.

Calculate the size of the balloon, if the air inside is heated to [-] degrees, it is enough to carry a weight of [-] kilograms.Even if it can't be heated to such a high temperature, three or four hundred kilograms is always fine, as long as the rope is kept intact, at most it will fall to the ground, so as not to fall to death.

The wicker hanging basket was installed, the rope was carefully checked, and the wind direction was checked by licking your fingers, it was just right.

With a blast of hot air from a bellows, the balloon finally stood upright, loaded the prepared oil and other items into the hanging basket, and ignited the oil used to generate heat.

The ropes fixed to the boulder on the ground were getting tighter and tighter. After two or three hours of preparation, it was finally time to take off.

Pulling Lin Xi into the dangerous hanging basket, the burning flames made people feel uncomfortable, but Fei Tian's excitement still outweighed the burning.

The three people pulled the rope underneath, and after proving that they were strong enough to fly into the air, they took out their knives and cut off the rope tied to the boulder.

The moment the shackles were released, the huge cloth-bag hot air balloon shook and left the ground.

In the hanging basket, Lin Xi held the wicker with both hands, looked at the distance getting farther and farther away, her cheeks flushed with excitement, she never thought about the danger involved.

On the ground, Hu Lin and the others, as well as the entire Min County Guild Hall, looked up at the balloons flying off the ground, cheering deafeningly.

Flying has been a dream of people since ancient times. Many people have paid their lives for it, but this dream has never been broken.The people below knew that they were not the two people sitting in the hanging basket, but they seemed to feel the excitement of flying into the sky for the first time, imagining what it would be like to look at the ground in the air.

For the trading company and for Chen Jian's various workshops, this is just a special advertisement.And for many more, it means a new era.

They didn't go to the academy to listen to Chen Jian talk about those things, nor did they think about the beauty and filth of the future.

But through this simple hot air balloon, they firmly believe that human dreams will come true one day, and there is nothing that human beings cannot do-when the rumors in the academy spread to the outside one day, they will also Because this balloon believes that it is not a dream, maybe it is just the future.

People conquered the land and mountains with their feet, and the lakes and oceans with their ships.However, the sky has always been a place that is difficult for human beings to reach. It is a world that Asuka can be proud of.

But now, for the first time, a human figure appeared in the sky.

No action can tell all people in the capital more intuitively than this one, no matter how rich or poor they are, no matter what they are doing at this time.

As long as they look up, they will find that the times have changed.Look, the morning star has risen.

Chapter 89 Cover your eyes and look at the sky

At noon that day, the warm wind blowing from the not-too-distant East China Sea was very soft.Just like the most famous fine wool produced near the old Xiacheng, it is just ironed on the body lukewarm, making people unable to help but reach out and want to touch this soft, seemingly imperceptible fabric. Feel.

It was a ten-day holiday, and the vast majority of people living in the capital, especially the eastern district, were entitled to such a day of rest.

Horse-drawn carts passed by on the street, and occasionally captured homeless children were beaten barefoot by soldiers with the butts of arquebus guns, sending them to where they should go.

It can be seen that the law and order here is very good, the pedestrians on the street are well-dressed, and the adults are used to everything on the street. They occasionally talk about the sports meeting they have had a few days ago, and talk about those people who are far away from them but whose names are very close .
