Cheng Yaojin hesitated.
He wanted to believe Li Tai because he was too amazing. He himself was a golden signboard.
However, they didn't believe Li Tai because what Li Tai said was too advanced and incomprehensible.
Cheng Yaojin couldn't understand how a teapot could replace a carriage.
This was obviously not the end. Li Tai continued,"I know that you won't understand if I explain the steam engine to you…Coincidentally, I'm holding a press conference in three days. At this press conference, I will invite all the nobles of the Great Tang and the Imperial Court to participate. Watch my steam engine sample live and let you see what it means to boil water.”
"I don't know anything else." Fourth Prince, you only need to tell me to invest 20 million. If we earn it, how much can we earn?"
Li Tai thought for a moment. I don't know how much I'll earn. As long as we succeed in our research and development, we will definitely make a profit. As for how much we earn…"
As he spoke, Li Tai raised a finger."This is the starting number."
"A million strings?"
"Go further."
Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath.”
"Let's talk about it later."
Cheng Yaojin slapped his own face."It can't be 10,000 strings, right?"
Li Tai nodded seriously. He thought to himself, If I can control the patent and technology of the steam engine…Then, the future steam cars, steamships, and trains. They could even open factories after the steam era…
More than ten thousand?
Cheng Yaojin stomped his feet angrily and asked with red eyes,""How long can I earn?"
Li Tai raised a finger again.
"A year?" Cheng Yaojin clenched his fists.
Li Tai shook his head.
"Once?" Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath.”
Li Tai continued to shake his head.
Cheng Yaojin looked at the finger for a long time and exclaimed,""It can't be forever, right?”
Li Tai shook his head again.
"Then how long is it?"
"I've been earning money," Li Tai said lightly.”
"Motherf * cker!"
Cheng Yaojin jumped three times on the spot, his eyes wide open. Then, he slapped Li Tai's shoulder three times with his large palm.
"I'll wait for your press conference in three days.”
“……”
After sending Cheng Yaojin off, Li Tai began to feel more pressured.
"200,000 strings of research and development fees. If I rely on myself to earn money, I will be able to earn it one day. But how many years would that be? The Great Voyage could not be delayed... If there was no research and development fee of 20,000,000 strings, it would be impossible to develop a commercial steam engine in the shortest time possible. It could only stay in the experimental stage.”
"But if we have 20,000 strings of research and development fees. Once the commercial steam engine was successful, it could be used to build ships. In a few months, with a huge investment, I will be able to get the first fleet to sea!”
Li Tai clenched his fists. It's beneficial for the future, beneficial for the future!"
After saying that, Li Tai silently walked back to his office in Maijishan and continued to fiddle with his samples.
The steam engine prototype was actually not difficult. The reason why Li Tai had come up with this was because no one in this world had ever seen such a thing. If you explained the concept to them, they wouldn't understand at all. They couldn't understand how a teapot could generate power by boiling water.
Oh, right. They didn't know what was power or kinetic energy.
He didn't understand. What do you think?
Therefore, the simplest way was to use a sample!~
You have to let everyone see with their own eyes that that thing only needs to boil water to move. It could spin!
