Chapter 293 California Mining Project? Boom 20? Manned Moon Landing?(1/3)
Chapter 293 California Mining Plan? H-20? Manned Moon Landing?
However, Chen Ye feels that the load capacity of the Z-20 is still not enough. The reason is that the Z-20 is a multi-purpose helicopter with a full load of only 10 tons.
Regardless of the full load of 10 tons, after deducting the empty weight and two tons of aviation fuel, there is only a load of 3.5 tons.
So compared to it, there was another helicopter that satisfied Chen Ye more, which was the domestic wide-body helicopter that Chen Ye saw parked at the airport.
"Do you have any straight 8s here?"
"Those Z-8s belong to China Air Force and have not been handed over yet. If you want them, they will be given to you tomorrow.
Moreover, Zhi 8 will not have much effect on the Ming Dynasty in the short term. We are preparing to export it to the Three Kingdoms period.
We are already optimistic about the gold veins in California. As long as we teach a few pilots and fly with them for two days, we can start transporting people.
When the time comes, we will rush to America, hire some locals, we will provide the equipment, and the Three Kingdoms Time and Space will work with you to develop the ore veins, and we will be able to cooperate in developing those gold mines."
"Harm, you don't want the Ming Dynasty? The situation in the Ming Dynasty is better now, the pilots are about to rise, and the army is larger."
Following He Tao to the He-8 helicopter, Chen Ye watched with interest as the ground crew pulled away the helicopter's tarpaulin and then began final inspection and confirmation.
"The Americas of the Ming Dynasty already had European footprints. If you want to go to the Americas to mine gold in the short term, you will need to transport a lot of people for armed protection. It is not economical or cost-effective to transport a large number of people by helicopter.
On the contrary, during the Three Kingdoms period, they could mine first, and when the capital came back, it would be a good idea for the Ming Dynasty to build more aircraft or use more shipping.
Now the Indians have a tribal culture. After you establish order there, you can bribe their chiefs and hire tribal people to work for you.
During the gold rush in the past, mine owners made a fortune selling mineral water to the miners, so you can do the same, paying them wages and letting them consume it."
"Good guys, you guys need to hang a street lamp."
After hearing He Tao's explanation, Chen Ye finally understood. Indeed, the Three Kingdoms had an original advantage over the Ming Dynasty in this regard.
After all, these Indians are still in their original habitat.
"Indians.
Speaking of Indians, have they not developed a real civilization yet?
Wait, the Three Kingdoms period was in 221 AD, could this be when the Mayan civilization began to flourish?"
"Yes, the reason why America was chosen as the first stop was actually based on this consideration.
The ancient Egyptian civilization has lost its research value at this time and can be left alone for now, but the Mayan civilization in America is at its peak at this time.
As long as we can get in touch with them, we can discuss with them the reasons why they are backward in humanities but extremely advanced in astronomy, and maybe we can solve some mysteries."
"So that's the case, then I understand. It seems that the training of personnel in the Three Kingdoms must be done as soon as possible.
Lao Zhu has been occupying the time and space gate for a month, so he needs to let him out of the network channel, otherwise just watching the video will always be very slow without any guidance."
Chen Ye pondered that it was also a problem for Chongzhen to keep occupying this time and space gate, which greatly hindered the rapid training of talents from the Three Kingdoms period.
Although there are already people from the Ming Dynasty who are recording instructional videos for them so that the correspondents selected by Liu Bei can begin to learn how to use the radio, there is still some gap compared to the people in the Ming Dynasty who have quickly become accustomed to it.
"Let's talk about it later. The main thing today is for you to learn how to use the helicopter. Once you learn it, you can provide on-site guidance, which will be more convenient."
"You're right, you're right. Helicopters have learned this, and these are the things we can talk about.
I haven't even given those flying three-bouncers you sold me to Chongzhen yet, so I might as well give most of them to Liu Bei. I'll just use the Z-20 as a squad vehicle in the Ming Dynasty."
"Flying motorcycles are very convenient, but fuel consumption and short range are always problems. For daily use in the Ming Dynasty, they are indeed not as useful as special operations during the Three Kingdoms period."
He Tao nodded in agreement and the two of them got into the cockpit of the Z-8 together.
"Hey, you actually know how to fly a helicopter?"
Only then did Chen Ye notice that He Tao was actually wearing noise-cancelling earplugs and opened the main cockpit.
"What's so strange about this? In fact, whether it's a helicopter or an airplane, it's very simple. As long as there are no problems, it's easier than driving on the road. You can travel around the world and have many skills.
Okay, let me now tell you all the startup precautions and what all the instruments represent."
After He Tao finished explaining what the instruments represented, he took out a mobile phone from his arms and handed it to Chen Ye.
After Chen Ye took it, he looked through it and found that the appearance of the phone was very similar to a mobile phone that was already on the market.
"Eh? A certain mate50? Isn't this just launched?"
"The government-enterprise customized version has a chip that has been replaced with a military chip, and it doesn't have their logo. The system is also different, so it can't be used at all, but it's enough to scan the QR code."
"Let me see."
Chen Ye looked back and forth and found that it was indeed exactly the same as Huawei's, but the logo was worn away. After turning on the phone, what flashed was the Guohui plus Bayi emblem.
After opening, the mobile phone screen directly enters the homepage, with only one satellite communication and one camera.
"It's gone now? What are you doing for me?"
“This mobile phone has built-in satellite communication, which can contact Beidou satellites from any location, achieve positioning, and send and receive messages.
If you try taking pictures with this camera, it can match the alarm information to the local log and tell you what is broken and how to fix it."
"Are we all that advanced now?"
Chen Ye took a picture of the engine icon with a confused look on his face, and saw several colors of different engine states appearing on it, as well as the corresponding alarm names.
"Informatization can go further, and this is all trivial."
After He Tao said something arrogantly, he put on his earphones. From this moment on, he could no longer hear Chen Ye's words.
Unless Chen Ye uses a noise-canceling headset to communicate, or directly uses a super loud voice to shout close to him.
After He Tao took action, the engine began to operate and the helicopter's spiral began to prepare to rotate.
Watching He Tao's operation, the helicopter began to climb slowly, and Chen Ye also began to get excited.
An hour later, Chen Ye, who had watched the entire process, also began to conduct takeoff training on his own, but accordingly, He Tao had already evacuated all nearby soldiers.
It's not that he's afraid of hurting anyone, but he's afraid that when the plane goes out of control, if Chen Ye wants to put the plane into the space, it's no joke that such a big plane suddenly disappears.
"Mr. Chen, I'll sell you this Z-8.
Remember! If you lose control, activate your abilities immediately. Don’t fly out. If it’s too late, you can crash the plane! Don’t fly more than a hundred meters, this is very important!”
"Don't worry, don't worry, I will jump off the plane if I can't control it."
Chen Ye waved his hand and started to activate the helicopter's electronic control and pre-rotate the propeller without choosing to wear headphones.
As the noise gradually increased, Chen Ye activated physical filtering, an ability he had already mastered.
He Tao, who was standing underground, had already ridden his motorcycle away from the range of the helicopter to prevent himself from being killed in an accident later.
Chen Ye began to slowly lift the torque converter rod in his hand, and the helicopter took off, slowly flying to more than a hundred meters.
Since this is civil aviation space, Chen Ye also knew that the position had reached the restricted altitude, so he began to try to descend.
After descending to 50 meters, I started to try to use the joystick to make the helicopter start to move forward, backward, left and right.
It was okay when flying forward and backward. Chen Ye controlled it carefully and did not make too big a jump. Below, He Tao was riding a motorcycle. Looking at Chen Ye's movements, his heart was already speeding up.
Sure enough, all accidents would follow. Just when Chen Ye started to prepare to turn left, he failed to control the tail properly, the lift torque increased, the deflection increased, and the aircraft suddenly lost control.
Seeing the helicopter spinning in the sky, He Tao was so frightened that he took the walkie-talkie and was about to call the fire truck.
Then I saw the helicopter door open, and then the Z-8 disappeared into the sky.
Seeing Chen Ye falling from the air, He Tao couldn't help but stare closely at him until he stood steadily on the ground, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ouch, you scared me to death."
"Don't worry, am I still right? What happened just now?"
"Then it should be that you pressed the torque lever too fast, causing an instant..."
As He Tao explained, Chen Ye also began to recall the actions just now and figured out the details of several operational errors.
"It seems that this thing needs more practice in the simulation warehouse! You go away, I will release the plane."
"Huh? He won't stop when you let him out?"
"Yes, I told you before that the state in which it is put in will be the state in which it is put out. Otherwise, if I put in a bunch of fruits and only pick them up after a few days in Chongzhen, they would have rotted long ago."
"Well, I forgot about this. Then I'll go further. Are you sure you've turned off the engine?"
"OK sure."
Chen Ye saw that He Tao had been away for a while and asked the system to release the helicopter that had just lost control.
The helicopter that appeared on the ground had its propeller powered off, but the effect of inertia still allowed it to fly up a little, and its body even tilted to the ground.
When the propeller was about to hit the ground, Chen Ye activated the system capability again and then released it.
He Tao, who was standing in the distance, watched Chen Ye's actions with great interest, and kept clicking his tongue.
This feeling is like the feeling when the graphics card is overloaded when playing a game and the vehicle suddenly cannot be loaded.
Thinking of this, He Tao couldn't help but start thinking about a philosophical question. Isn't this world a huge virtual world?
Chen Ye is the kind of system bug that exists.
After thinking about it, Chen Ye got back on the plane, started the plane, and flew into the air again.
This time, with the control experience and the improvement of his physical coordination ability due to the subtle modification of the system, Chen Ye finally started to fly well.
