Chapter 398 I envy the day I can fly
If soldiers are asked to wear heavy steel plates, it is not certain whether they can protect against bullets, but their mobility will be restricted, making them easy targets of attack.
Such materials are definitely not acceptable.
"It doesn't necessarily have to be steel plates." Si Gu said, looking at the few people.
Miao Jiu turned to look at him: "Just finish what you are saying. What's the matter with saying half of it?"
"When I was abroad, I saw a study that showed that multi-layered silk also has good toughness."
Si Gu said this while looking at the people around him: "Perhaps, we can try various mixed materials to reduce weight while also providing protection."
Several people looked at each other, and finally Siming spoke up: "I'm afraid we can only ask Liu Cheng'an for this matter."
Liu Cheng'an didn't expect that he would go to the Si family twice in one day. When he heard what they said, he felt terrible.
"No, gentlemen, do you think I'm a R&D staff member?"
How come I can always find him for everything?
"You are the only one among us who knows the most about fabrics. Who else should we look for if not you?" Miao Jiu looked at him with a smile.
"No, Master Jiu."
"What I know about fabrics is that they are used to make clothes, not for research and development. I was already exhausted by the colorful fabrics you made before."
"Then they gave me a shoe and hat factory. Making shoes was already beyond my budget, and now they suddenly wanted me to use fabric to make bulletproof vests."
"You killed me relatively quickly. Is this something a human can make?"
Liu Chengan couldn't help but complain incessantly.
Siming waited for him to finish speaking and looked at him: "Are you done?"
Liu Cheng'an was choked by his attitude and nodded mechanically: "Speak, I'm done."
"Now that you've finished complaining, just do what you have to do. We'll wait for your good news." Siming said calmly.
Liu Cheng'an didn't know how he walked out of the Si family's gate. When he stood at the gate, he looked down at his body.
After all, I can't keep the flesh that has been with me for many years!
He sighed, went home and said something to Lin Jingqiu and her son, then plunged into the clothing factory.
Si Gu looked at the others and said, "In fact, although silk is tough, it is not completely bulletproof."
"We all know it, but we have to keep trying. If we try more, we will always find a feasible solution." Si Tian and the others are not stupid either.
If multi-layered silk could really protect against bullets, it would be truly invincible.
But they always have to try, they can’t wait for others to make it before buying it!
Siming looked at everyone present and said, "It just so happens that you are all here today. I have something else to tell you."
"I plan to visit the various warlords in the surrounding area, so I'll have to trouble you in Beiyang City during this period."
Miao Jiu was not surprised: "Have you thought about it?"
"We must go this way, but we should go early or late. While the grain planting is going on, they still have a good impression of me. This is the best time to visit them."
"If this crop cannot be grown, they will probably cause trouble for me." Siming thought clearly.
"When are you planning to set off?" Si Tian frowned slightly.
"I'll be leaving in the next two days." Si Ming might not be able to come back until the New Year.
"Just remember to come back and attend my wedding." Si Tian looked at him with a smile.
"I won't miss it." Siming raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
What Siming didn't expect was that on the day he was about to set off, two little door gods appeared at the door.
He rubbed his brows with a headache and looked at the two children holding his legs: "Dad is not going out to play, he has something to do."
"We know, we are very good." Juanjuan said seriously.
Siming looked at the other people in the family.
"Don't look at us, we can't handle these two little guys." Miao Jiu looked helpless.
Siming rolled his eyes at him: "I don't count on you."
"A Ming, since there's no danger, take them with you. Neither of the two children has ever been on a train, and didn't you promise to take them on a train?"
Madam Si looked at Si Ming and said with a smile.
"Mom." Si Ming didn't quite understand why Madam Si said that.
Madam Si walked over to him and whispered a few words: "If you take the two children with you, it will help people relax their vigilance."
"If you go alone, I'm afraid others will be wary of you."
"But..." Siming was still afraid of bringing danger to the two children.
"If you don't believe us, you should at least believe what Juanjuan says. She will be very good."
After saying this, Madam Si looked at Juanjuan and asked, "Am I right?"
"Yeah, Juanjuan and her brother are both good." Juanjuan smiled, revealing her little white teeth.
Siming nodded helplessly: "Okay, I'll take you there. Have you packed your luggage?"
"Dad, do you keep your word?" Juanjuan asked worriedly.
"You keep your word. Go pack your luggage now. I'll wait for you here." Siming compromised.
The two children immediately let him go and pulled Bailing to help them pack their luggage.
Siming looked at the two children running away and said, "I'm not sure if there's any danger this time, so I don't want to take the risk with them."
"Because of the uncertainty, I have to take Juanjuan and Achen with me. Only with them by your side can you return safely."
"If something happens to you, do you want your two children to be without a mother and a father?" Old Lady Si looked at him and said.
Sima Ming didn't say anything else, just nodded.
"Juanjuan is an amazing kid. She also saved me when we were at the old house of the Miao family." Miao Jiu told him about what happened at the old house of the Miao family.
"A Ming, although Juanjuan is just a child, she can bring you good luck. With her by your side, you may be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort." Si Ning patted his shoulder.
"Brother, relax." Si Tian and Si Gu both looked at him with a smile.
Siming was no longer worried. His family was right. Maybe it would really be Juanjuan who would bring him good luck.
Bailing came down carrying two boxes: "Commander-in-Chief, the young master and young lady's luggage has been packed."
Adjutant Qi reached out to take the two boxes and put them in the trunk of the car.
Juanjuan took Siming's hand and waved goodbye to her family.
When the peregrine falcon saw this, it flew directly to Siming’s shoulder. Its meaning was very clear: it wanted to go with him.
Siming was naturally happy to see that it was willing to follow, so he took them into the car.
Miao Jiu watched the car slowly leave the Si family's gate: "With two children missing from the family, I feel a sudden emptiness."
“Wow wow wow!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the crying of the triplets told him that there were three more of them in the house.
"Look, when did the house become empty? Aren't there still three naughty kids who don't let us have any time?" Old Madam Si smiled and went to see the triplets with Si Ning.
Songsongruanruan and Jizizi watched the peregrine falcon leave with eager eyes. At this moment, they were a little envious of those who could fly.
