Chapter 183 Get a Hot Air Balloon and Play
I don't know where this big umbrella-like floating object came from.
This mystery really puzzled everyone in Chang'an City.
Naturally, Li Shimin also sent someone to investigate the matter.
But the floating object like a big umbrella floated very high, and the soldiers under him were not sure that they could hit it with their bows and arrows.
And this thing also has a certain sacredness.
Li Shimin didn't dare to do it lightly, what if Tianwei was offended and God's punishment was sent down?
As a result, various rumors arose in Chang'an City.
Of course, the most talked about, of course, is that this big umbrella-like floating object is auspicious.
Li Shimin is the current emperor, and there are too many people who flatter him.
This big umbrella-like floating thing doesn't look bad, it doesn't look like a disaster, since it's so strange, of course it's meant to be auspicious.
Although Li Shimin just laughed it off.
But in my heart, this thought did flash through.
Could it be that the floating thing in the sky is really the auspiciousness of the Tang Dynasty?
If not, how could such a miraculous thing appear.
On this day.
A familiar guest came to Li Hao's residence.
Li Yuan.
Li Yuan himself is in the deep palace, because he is now the person who was coerced by Li Shimin to withdraw from the throne, so naturally he cannot have his own subordinates, so it is very boring.
When I am free, I will naturally come to Li Hao.
Li Hao is not an ordinary person if there is someone to relieve the boredom. He can surprise Li Yuan for a long time by taking out something casually.
Secondly, Li Yuan can also win over Li Hao.
When Li Yuan came to Li Hao's place today, he found a huge cloth in Li Hao's courtyard.
The material of this cloth is quite peculiar, it feels very tough, and it seems that it can be inflated to a large extent.
And Li Hao was inflating the cloth, and soon the cloth swelled up, and it seemed to have a round shape.
Li Yuan asked curiously:
"Little brother, what are you doing here?"
Li Hao replied while busy: "It's okay, let's get a hot air balloon for fun."
hot air balloon?What is this?
Li Yuan was very puzzled.
"Dare to ask my little brother, what is this hot air balloon? What is it for?"
Li Hao laughed.
"This thing can make people fly. You don't understand the principle of the so-called hot air balloon. You know the Kongming Lantern. Just treat it as a large Kongming Lantern."
Li Yuan naturally knew what the Kongming Lantern was, Li Yuan even let the Kongming Lantern go by himself when he was a child.
But what does this mean.
Kongming lanterns are easy to fly because they are light enough and small enough.
But this round shape looks very bulging and light, but can it really fly?
Li Hao knew that Li Yuan didn't believe it.
However, Li Hao didn't expect Li Yuan to believe this. To put it bluntly, whether Li Yuan believed it or not had nothing to do with Li Hao.
After the prototype of the round hot air balloon was finished, Li Hao lit the bottom of the hot air balloon.
The fuel is charcoal.
Although it is not as powerful as that kind of firepower, if you don't bring people with you, you can barely use it.
Under Li Yuan's gaze, the round balloon rose slowly.
Not only did it rise, but it also turned into a big umbrella under the blowing of a hot air that distorted the space.
At this time Li Yuan recognized it.
Isn't this the auspicious image that has been floating over Chang'an City?
This thing was originally made by little brother Li Hao?
It seemed that it was really a big joke, so many people said it was auspicious, and even Li Shimin believed it, but it turned out that it was just something Li Hao used for fun.
I saw that as the hot air surged up, the hot air balloon flew higher and higher. Under the control of the rope in Li Hao's hand, the hot air balloon began to float eastward.
Floating around like this, it is really very close.
Li Yuan was very surprised.
You must know that people have pursued flying in the air for many years, but there has been no progress, and they don't know what it is like to be in the air.
Unexpectedly, this Li Hao was so ingenious and able to create such a miraculous thing.
It can actually stay in the sky for a long time, and its volume is so huge!
Li Yuan couldn't help asking: "Then can this thing bring people?"
Li Hao thought for a while, and said: "Theoretically, it is possible, but I haven't tried it yet. This is just something I have just figured out, and there is still room for improvement."
This is the hot air balloon that Li Hao got when he signed in.
However, the sign-in reward this time is just a hot air balloon. In modern times, this hot air balloon is mostly used for publicity.
Although there is enough buoyancy to take people to the sky, but because of the heavy weight of people, it is not known what effect it will have on hot air balloons.
Therefore, Li Hao has not let people go to heaven.
Li Yuan nodded, and then asked: "How much can this thing usually carry? I think this hot air balloon flies very high, so it should be able to hold a lot of things."
Li Hao smiled.
"It's okay. In fact, it's not a problem to install something that weighs two to three hundred catties. The key is that after loading it, it will not be so easy to operate, and the danger will also increase greatly. To put it bluntly, it is easy to overturn."
Li Yuan snorted.
"Then if this thing is used for transportation, wouldn't it be quite cost-effective? If it is used to transport two or three hundred catties, it will be quite laborious. This thing of yours seems to be able to help with transportation."
Li Hao waved his hand and said: "This thing is just a toy. After all, it is very difficult to manufacture. Even if it is manufactured, it will only slightly improve the transport capacity."
In history, there are indeed cases of using hot air balloons to help transport.
To put it bluntly, even if you tie more ordinary balloons to the goods, you can reduce the weight of the goods, making it much easier.
Not to mention this hot air balloon.
If the hot air balloon is not completely floated in the air, but hung on the cargo and pushed with a small cart, it can save a lot of effort.
It can be said to be a good method that is fast and labor-saving.
But this is only an ideal state.
In fact, the production of hot air balloons is not very simple.
Even Li Hao only played after signing in.
So Li Hao didn't expect this hot air balloon to be popularized, he just played it by himself.
As the hot air balloon lifted into the sky, Li Yuan's heart became more and more excited.
Because the hot air balloon is indeed rising very high, people instinctively have the feeling of wanting to see what is above the sky.
Li Hao was manipulating the hot air balloon with a rope.
Going east and going west for a while.
The speed of the hot air balloon was very fast. Under Li Hao's control, it passed the streets and houses quickly, causing the pedestrians below to look up and shout auspiciously.
Li Hao was a little tired of playing hot air balloons during this period of time.
It's like this when you play a lot of things.
Li Hao flew a hot air balloon today, just like flying a kite, but he no longer had the feeling he had at the beginning, and now he lacked interest.
So Li Hao took the hot air balloon back.
In the eyes of the people of Chang'an City, this means that Xiangrui has disappeared early and needs to be reported to His Majesty.
As for Li Hao's mansion, Li Hao put the hot air balloon down, and Li Yuan rushed to the place where the hot air balloon was in three steps, and then stroked the hot air balloon with his palm, the surge in his heart still did not disappear.
Li Yuan finally couldn't bear to make a request.
"Little brother, can this hot air balloon take me to the sky to see?"
Li Hao glanced at Li Yuan.
