"Why choose me?" Carotes said looking at Su Ziye opposite.
"Because your bid is very low." Su Ziye said matter-of-factly.
"I'm not an easy person to talk to." Carotes smiled.
"Among the people I know, you are the easiest to talk to." Su Ziye confirmed.
Carotes sighed: "Then I really want to know who you know."
"You said you have something that can impress me, so take it out now."
"Okay." Su Ziye nodded, and then took out a small wooden toy.
This toy was only about twenty centimeters long. It was a delicate toy made of a lot of wood and a small amount of metal, but Carotes didn't understand what it was at first glance.
"What is this?" Carotes asked.
"I'll show you." Su Ziye said with a calm smile.
He opened one end of the toy, which was a small boiler, and then he poured some water into the boiler.
Then close it and quietly light a small golden flame inside the toy.
The golden flame burned the small steel boiler, causing the water in it to boil almost instantly.
The boiling water evaporates a large amount of hot steam, which rushes upward, but is trapped in the boiler and has no way to escape. It can only make a hissing sound in vain.
"I know this." Carotes said quietly.
Boil the water!
Who doesn’t know?
"There is power in this water vapor." Su Ziye said calmly.
"There are many powerful things in this world." Carotes said lightly.
"But there are very few people who can use these things." Su Ziye replied.
While saying this, he raised his hand to add more parts to the little toy.
The boiling steam gets a channel to vent. They rush out along the channel, and then push a piston backward.
The piston drives the long rod bearing at the back to move, and then changes the trajectory of the steam, allowing the steam to return to the rear of the piston, and then push the piston forward again.
As long as the steam continues, this movement can be carried out in cycles, so Carotes saw a constantly rotating bearing and a toy that kept emitting hot steam.
"It's interesting." Carotes nodded: "But it's just a toy."
"Really?" Su Ziye smiled.
He took out a basin about the size of a bathtub and placed it on Carlottes' table.
"It's a bit big," Carotes reminded.
"It can't be too small." Su Ziye said lightly.
He continued to fill the basin with water until it was halfway full.
Then Su Ziye took out another boat and placed it in the basin.
The boat floated on the water.
Carotes nodded: "I'm not an idiot."
Of course a boat will float when placed in water.
Su Ziye smiled, and then combined the hot water toy and the boat floating on the water.
This was not simply placed on top, but a detailed combination. The young man's hands were fast and his movements were very precise, so it didn't take long for him to put the assembled boat back on the water.
"It's going to be magic." Su Ziye said, and then lit the golden flame under the boiler again.
The water boils and the steam gushes out, driving the piston to move. The piston pushes the bearing, and the bearing drives the propeller under the boat.
Then the boat started to move in the basin.
Driven by the propeller, the boat moved forward.
Carotes watched quietly, then smiled: "I finally understand what you mean by power."
"You can burn coal." Su Ziye said calmly: "Boats can be made very big, and toys can also be made very big. As long as coal is burned, there will be a steady stream of steam, and the boat can move forever."
"Very interesting." Carotes nodded and said, "This is really the most interesting thing you have shown me so far."
Compared with this thing, Su Ziye's previous happy water and instant noodles were really just trivial things.
The ingenuity and power of the boat sailing forward in front of us are truly astonishing.
"That's not all." Su Ziye smiled.
He took out the boat, put away the basin, and then expertly dismantled the water-boiling toy, and then took out a circular track, which he also placed on Carlottes' table.
"Wait a minute," Carotes said suddenly.
Su Ziye stopped.
Carotes smiled: "I think His Highness the Third Prince will like this very much."
Saying this, he smiled and called out the name of His Highness.
Almost in the next moment, the girl in black clothes and red hair appeared in front of the two people.
This beautiful girl tilted her head and looked at the two of them, wondering why someone would call her.
Carotes did not explain, but just stretched out his hand to let Su Ziye continue.
Su Ziye sighed and nodded, then took out a cart.
A water-heating toy is placed on the car, and then the flame is ignited again. The car is also driven by the rotating bearings, and then starts to speed on the circular track.
Su Ziye turned back and glanced at the Third Highness. Sure enough, the girl's ruby-like eyes were shining right now.
She does love toys like this.
And Su Ziye's performance is not over yet.
He added a carriage to the back of the moving car.
In the carriage are some small logs that have been cut.
The car was still moving forward, so Su Ziye continued to add another car.
Inside the carriage are lumps of ore.
Su Ziye added carriages one by one behind the front of the car, until finally almost the entire circular track was filled.
But this thing that almost turned into a circular snake is still moving tirelessly along the track.
Snow-white steam was rising from the front of the car.
His Highness’s eyes almost had stars popping out.
Who doesn’t love fun toys like this?
His Highness the Third Prince has already stretched out his hand, and a golden leaf grass has appeared in the palm of the girl's hand.
There is no doubt that His Highness the Third Prince will buy this toy.
She really liked it.
Carotes looked at the Third Prince in front of him fondly, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sell it."
Su Ziye nodded and took the golden leaf grass from His Highness the Third Prince's hand.
So His Highness reached out and flicked his hand, and the running train and track completely disappeared in an instant.
"I also have a moving boat. I will personally go to your house tonight to teach you how to play." Su Ziye smiled and looked at the very happy Third Highness. In fact, he was also very happy.
On the one hand, Carlotes has accepted Su Ziye's deal.
On the other hand, His Highness liked it so much, which was indeed beyond his expectation.
He never thought about using this thing to please His Highness the Third.
"The president and I still have something to talk about. You can leave first." He continued to say to His Highness the Third Prince.
His Highness the Third nodded and disappeared into the air again.
"It's very interesting." Carotes looked at the disappeared Third Prince, smiled and said, "It's much more interesting than I thought."
"Tell me, what do you want?" Carotes said calmly.
"As I said before, I want the college's reserve materials. As a price, I will build a boat within a month that can sail like this on Broken Star Lake." Carotes looked at Su Ziye and said.
"What a loud tone." Carotes said lightly.
"The boat doesn't have to be big, and I also need helpers." Su Ziye said with a smile.
"Deal." Carotes extended his palm.
Su Ziye happily high-fived Carotes.
