"I have roamed the boundless desert, and experienced the vastness of the sky filled with yellow sand and the scorching sun;"
"I have also dived into the deep ocean, played with colorful fish, and seen the magnificent coral world..."
Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi were fascinated by what they heard.
They seemed to have followed Li Haoze's footsteps, traveled to every corner of the world, and witnessed those wonders that only existed in legends.
"Xiao Rangjun, have you really been to so many places?" Li Lizhi couldn't help but exclaim, "Are those places really that beautiful?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you?" Li Haoze said seriously, "The world is so big, there are countless beautiful places.
In some places there are dense tropical rain forests, in others there are vast deserts;
Some places are covered with snow and ice, and some places are erupting volcanoes.
Every place has its own unique beauty and mysteries waiting to be discovered.”
Empress Changsun also listened with great interest and could not help but sigh, "I never thought that there are so many beautiful sights in this world that we have never seen.
"Xiaorangjun, you are really knowledgeable!"
What Li Haoze said was of course true, but he had not been there in person, but had seen it on a modern computer.
Li Haoze was secretly happy, but appeared humble on the surface.
"Thank you for the compliment, mother. I am just lucky enough to have traveled far and wide and witnessed these beautiful sights.
In fact, the world is so big, there are still many unknown places waiting for us to discover and explore! "
"Then... Xiao Rangjun," Li Lizhi suddenly looked at him expectantly, "can you take us to explore these beautiful places?
I also want to see how many beautiful landscapes there are in this vast world!"
Empress Changsun also looked at him with the same eager eyes, revealing the same desire.
Hearing the two women's requests, Li Haoze was stunned.
Uh...how come he was just bragging and now he is being asked to fulfill it?
But...if you think about it carefully, although it is a bit difficult to build an airplane in the Tang Dynasty, building a hot air balloon should not be too difficult, right?
After all, he can directly copy information from the modern world, and he has the little princess as a tool to spread knowledge.
Wouldn’t it be easy to build a hot air balloon in the Tang Dynasty?
Moreover, if he could really build a hot air balloon and take Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi to have a bird's eye view of the earth from the air, it would be an unprecedented experience.
At the same time, he only needed to name the hot air balloon Mingda and tell the world that the hot air balloon was invented by Princess Jinyang Li Mingda.
Wouldn’t it be possible to get as much attention as you want?
This is another huge harvest!
Thinking of this, Li Haoze felt excited.
He took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
"Okay! I promise, I will take you to explore the beautiful sights of this world!"
Upon hearing this, Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi's eyes lit up and they expressed their anticipation and gratitude.
"Little Lord, can you really do it?" Empress Changsun asked in disbelief.
"Mother, don't worry! Since I promised, I will definitely do it." Li Haoze promised solemnly.
Li Lizhi also said excitedly: "Xiao Rangjun, you are so kind! I am looking forward to that day!"
"But, when can you teach us the technology-based cultivation technique you mentioned?"
"Technology cultivation?" Li Haoze smiled. "I've already handed it over to you. Its essence is boiling water, and its origin is the steam engine."
"Only when the Tang Dynasty develops the steam engine," Li Haoze continued, "can we truly enter the realm of technological cultivation.
The steam engine was more than just a machine; it was the beginning of our understanding and mastery of natural forces.”
Of course, there is also electricity, so we can actually start working on it.
However, Datang’s industrial base is currently very poor. Even if Li Haoze learns the basic principles of electricity, it will be difficult to make any substantial progress in a short period of time.
Therefore, Li Haoze planned to start with the steam engine, gradually promote the industrialization process of Datang, and lay a solid foundation for the development of electricity.
"Can you only teach us the skills after you build the steam engine?"
Li Lizhi's eyes showed deep anticipation. She whispered to herself, "Aye has already sent people to Borneo to look for rubber."
"However... Nanyang is a long way away. Even if everything goes well, it will probably take at least several years to achieve any results, right?"
"Xiaorang-kun, is there really no way to make a steam engine faster?"
No? Li Haoze recalled the items in the system mall he had visited, which included rubber, rubber seeds, and even steam engines for sale.
However, since these things are not available in the Tang Dynasty yet, the selling price is relatively expensive, and each item requires millions of attention points.
So much attention is enough to give the little princess a new talent, so Li Haoze is naturally reluctant to give it up.
But at this moment, facing Li Lizhi's pleading, Li Haoze hesitated.
"Well..." Li Haoze pondered for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
He knew that if he purchased the required materials and machines directly through the system mall.
Although the goal can be achieved quickly, it will consume a lot of attention points.
These attention points could have been used to improve the little princess's other talents or to deal with emergencies that may arise in the future.
However, looking at the expectant eyes of Li Lizhi and Empress Changsun, his heart couldn't help but soften.
"Let's put it this way. After I build the hot air balloon and take it for its first flight, we'll see if there are any other shortcuts we can use."
"Hot air balloon? First flight?" Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi both showed curious expressions.
This was the first time they had heard of this term, so they were naturally very curious.
"That's right," Li Haoze nodded and explained,
"A hot air balloon is a flying device that can carry people into the air.
It heats the air, causing it to expand and generate lift, which carries us into the sky.”
"The maiden flight refers to the first official flight of a hot air balloon.
When the time comes, I will invite my sister and my mother to ride a hot air balloon together and experience the feeling of flying in the sky."
Li Haoze paused and continued, "And the hot air balloon is the easiest technological product I can think of to manufacture and can take you on a journey through the heavens and earth."
After hearing Li Haoze's explanation, Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi couldn't help but widen their eyes with expressions of disbelief.
They imagined themselves rising into the sky in a hot air balloon and overlooking the earth. The shock and excitement they felt were simply indescribable.
"Really? Can we really fly into the sky on a hot air balloon?" Li Lizhi asked excitedly, her eyes flashing with anticipation and excitement.
