Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 238: big car sill

Zhao Wuxi fell in love with the quaint four-wheeled vehicle as soon as he saw it, and immediately took it back to the lower palace as a tolerance fee. www.geiliwx.com

But because of the age, many parts and wooden structures have decayed, so the craftsmen can only disassemble it and study it carefully. Combining the styles that later generations sporadically remembered, we made a new sturdy, safe and shockproof four-wheeled carriage.

Although many bottlenecks were encountered in the production process, the cost far exceeded the budget. However, after Zhao Wuxi's constant suggestions and Zigong, a businessman who transports goods by car all the year round, after Wang Sunqi and even the experts who play with cars such as You Wuzheng participated in, these problems were solved one by one. .

The gentleman has his life, and the craftsman has to bite the bullet and keep experimenting, and the final product is far from satisfactory.

Of course, this is not satisfactory, in the eyes of Zhao Wuxi, who has a high vision. In Feng Rin's eyes, the simple, elegant, sturdy and durable cart in front of him has reached the specifications that only the Son of Heaven can ride.

"Beautiful cart!" He couldn't help but exclaimed.

"When Mu Tianzi traveled west, the eight horses he rode were just like this!"

He is also sent to us all year round, and naturally knows the hardships of the road. Although this four-wheeled carriage has not yet been completed, anyone can see that sitting in such a car must be a kind of enjoyment.

Wheelers made thicker and stronger axles, using hardwood clad in bronze and then softwood. The hub and the spokes are also of a three-layer structure of soft and hard wood, the hard wood supports the soft wood for shock absorption, and the wear-resistant bronze is used as the bond between the wheel and the axle.

People installed a solid support frame under the car, tied the upper compartment with multiple layers of tough leather cables, and then used cork and bronze to support the four walls of the compartment. As an auxiliary support to prevent the carriage from tilting and overturning during the shaking, the built carriage can take four or five adults, or pull the same weight of goods.

"There is a simple steering device on the front wheel of the carriage, and there is also a slight shock absorption under the carriage. This thing takes a lot of thought and materials."

Zhao Wuxi introduced it with a little smugness, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the cost of this big car was enough to make five combat vehicles. And he wasn't very satisfied.

The four-wheeled carriage has relatively high requirements for road conditions. The southern Jinan area that this trip will pass through is relatively flat and densely populated, and the road is also a relatively well-built official road. Continue eastbound to reach the vicinity of Wangwu Mountain. Gotta be worried.

Wangwu, thinking about the story of Yugong moving mountains, you will understand that it is by no means an open and flat place, and the next "sheep intestines", once you hear the name, you know that it is not a good way.

Wu Xie thought to himself: "Actually. If the math students in Jiqiao Academy can draw detailed structural diagrams, and then replace the bronze parts and frame with high-quality iron or steel, the effect will be even better."

However, this has exceeded the limit of technology and materials in the Spring and Autumn Period. Only after the development of the mathematics school and the further development of iron smelting technology can we expect to make breakthroughs.

In order to make Le Qi more comfortable along the way, and to please Le Lingzi, who has been lukewarm to him these past few days, Zhao Wuxi took great pains.

However, because the name of the tolerance is called. Therefore, it is the money of the lower palace and the manpower of the lower palace... Although the current technology is not mature, but in the future, the use of the four-wheeled carriage will be more, and the price will be cheaper.

After the carriage was completed, the date for leaving Xinjiang was also set, and we set off in three days!

And the last aftermath of Zhao Yang's coma crisis also ended quietly.

The retainer who tipped off to the outside world was deprived of his status as a doctor and was killed in the lower palace market. The audience was blocked, and all the retainers who had dissent for a while were horrified. And Xin Xiang Zhongxin, Shu Qi's scholar-officials were all dismissed from their posts. Sent to a remote small town to pioneer.

All the retainers have speculated that the lord is going to carry out a major cleaning of the Zhao family. After the gentleman returns, it will be a clean house!

Far East. Outside the gate of Linzi Ji, a farewell is being held.

"When a strong man goes here, there are nine deaths but no life. If he dies out of selfish anger, he will die for the common man, and he will die for the hegemony of the state of Qi. If he dies for the emperor, he will die for the country's soldier!" Come to do good work for Guye Zi.

The tall and strong Gu Yezi drank the wine in one go, and then sat on the back of the military carriage, still thinking in his heart that the gentleman of the Chen family had said similar things when he stopped him from committing suicide.

At that time, Qi Hou, who had been silently watching Tian Kaijiang and Gongsun's suicide, looked around, nodded slightly, and agreed with Chen Heng's suggestion.

And Lao Yanzi, who failed to complete the "Two Peach Killing Three Men", secretly sighed and looked at Chen Heng with admiration and helplessness in his eyes.

"Chen Clan has one more talented person from all over the world, Chen Wuyu, Chen Qi, Sima Rangju, Sun Wu, and Chen Heng, why is this clan so talented?"

"Emperor Feng is in Qi, and Ming Qiangqiang; after he has a concubine, he will be bred in Jiang; after the fifth generation Qichang, and Yu Zhengqing; after the eighth generation, Mozhi and Jing. Is the divination of Dr. Yizhong back then true? ?"

Gu Yezi didn't know Yan Ying's worries, he had been completely persuaded by the witty Chen Heng, and he only thought of one thing: "If I can kill that person, I will definitely be famous all over the world, and I will be ashamed! No regrets to die!"

A few days ago, the three scholars returned triumphantly after defeating Lu, but today, only the lonely figure of Guye Zi is on the road silently. With a bundle of leather and cloth covering his back behind him and a weapon tied with hemp rope, he took a last look at the Linzi City Tower, which was farther and farther away, and then headed west without looking back.

In the southern suburbs of Xinjiang, the citizens of the country who entered the city in the early morning also witnessed a huge trip.

At the head was a military chariot. The Yurong was young. Behind him stood a gentleman in dark clothes and wide sleeves, wearing a crown of Yuanyou, and a tall soldier in front of the curtain held a banner.

Jing is a flag decorated with bird feathers or yak tails. "Every envoy must use a jing festival". It is usually held by envoys from other countries to show their identity. The gentlemen of the Zhao family in the Song state have no shirts.

Before the official mission, the Jin and Song countries had to negotiate, and the Wei country that passed along the way had to be borrowed by the Song country, so it has been delayed until today, and it was only possible to start the road at the end of November.

Gradually, the whole picture of the team has been shown in front of everyone. It is a huge queue of hundreds of paces, with more than 100 people. The squires were at the front and on both sides of the chariot, and there were more than 20 single riders. The knights were all straddling tall horses, with bows and arrows on their saddles, vigilantly watching all the idle people around.

After that, there were more than 20 Zhao clan guards in armor and with poplar shields on their backs. They are guarding the key people in this recruitment.

And the vehicle that was located in the center of the team and was strictly protected made the Chinese people stunned.

It was a four-wheel-drive cart, pulled by a horse. On the flags planted on the side of the car is the black bird pattern of the Song Dynasty on a white background. The car is exquisite in workmanship and exquisite in materials. The paint is dyed in red and black, and it is painted with Kuilong and gluttonous patterns. Cloud and thunder pattern, solemn and beautiful.

As the convoy slowly passed through the Xinjiang South Gate, more and more onlookers stopped by the roadside. Compared with the two-wheeled military vehicle that everyone was tired of seeing, this four-wheeled vehicle was a rarity today, and many people whispered.

"My God, what is this? The monarch and Liu Qing are not able to travel in such a style."

"I remember that forty years ago, when Young Master Qin rushed to Jin. There were similar carts in the convoy..."

"Is it the gentleman of the Zhao clan who has made some ingenious things again?"

At this moment, the Chinese people in the southern suburbs of Xinjiang can only admire, and on a watchtower used to defend against the enemy, Le Fuli, who came to watch Zhao Wuxi go away, was also speechless.

"It's so elegant, Zhang Zi, if I ask Zhao Zi for such a big car, can he give it?"

Zhang Meng laughed without saying a word.

When Zhao Wuxi made this thing, he had been informed. At that time, quite a few courtiers in the lower palace thought it was too extravagant to make such a big car, but Zhao Wuxi said such a thing.

"There are two ways to save wealth. Open source and reduce expenditure. I make wheat flour, burn porcelain, promote the method of Daitian, and win gold and hundred yi for Zhao. Batch after batch, my own room has never been renovated, which is a cost saving."

"Both open source and cut expenditure, and got a lot of money and silk. Where will the money and silk be used? Naturally, it is used where it can benefit Zhao's family. Leda Sicheng was imprisoned because of Zhao's family. Don't you want to express my gratitude and apology? Song is an ally of Jin. Your Majesty does not despise my youth and entrusts me with the important task of recruiting. This trip represents the Zhao family and Jin. After letting the people of Song see it, they can also praise the 'the majesty of the hegemony'!"

"I only hope that the gentleman... No, it is the lord who can return safely!" Zhang Mengtan thought silently, he has been accepted as a disciple by Dong Anyu, and will follow him to familiarize himself with political affairs in the lower palace, and officially become a reserve retainer of the Zhao family.

This decision was made entirely because of Zhao Wuxi's performance in the past year, which gave Zhang Mengtan strong expectations for Zhao's future.

Zhao Wuxi wanted the people of Song to see that Jin was still a big country, and the Zhao clan was still a big family, but it was the people of Xinjiang who praised it first.

"I never thought that after mourning for the Duke, I will be able to see the majesty of a hegemony again!" This is some old Chinese sighing.

"This move without a shirt has a good effect. Chinese people like to watch the fun, and Zhao's reputation in Xinjiang is about to increase." Le Qi said this with a smile in the smooth-running four-wheeled carriage.

Le Lingzi, who raised the thick silk curtain to reveal a corner and observed the situation outside, blushed, turned his head back and said angrily, "Father should call him Zitai."

The interior of the carriage, which everyone is deeply curious about, is made of beautiful bright yellow, which looks warm and comfortable in winter. There are two rows of four couches in the compartment, and there is a small case fixed in the compartment. On the dark case is an incense burner, and a few wisps of blue smoke are rising. It is Doctor Bian Que, and Le Lingzi is a special medicinal fragrance for Le Qi.

"The son-in-law is like a half-son, so the old man can naturally call him that." Le Qi was in a good mood, and found a volume of "The History of the Le's Family", which was half written, and wanted to read it.

Le Lingzi grabbed it unceremoniously and said, "Father, you can't read and write on a bumpy car, it will hurt your eyes."

Le Qi stroked his beard and smiled: "If I could write a few more volumes of family history, why should I be stingy with my dim old eyes? Besides, this big car drives smoothly, like walking on the ground, without any shirts and hearts, for the sake of this old man. body, and in order to make you suffer less, UU reading www.uukanshu.com just tried to make this thing."

When Le Lingzi heard this sentence in the past, he would definitely bow his head slightly shyly, his heart full of warmth, but now, in addition to these joys, there are complicated troubles.

On the lower palace tower that day, Le Lingzi listened to the conversation between Zhao Wuxi and Ji Ying, word for word.

"There are no mausoleums in the mountains, the rivers are exhausted, the thunder in winter is shaking, the snow in summer, the heaven and the earth are together, but dare to be with the women! If this sentence is said by a gentleman to me, it would be great..."

Although Le Lingzi once comforted himself and said that this was just an oath of his younger brother to protect his elder sister, a simple oath. But so many days have passed, the words are still in her ears, and she can't forget them even if she wants to, and she is still thinking about it.

"I have always felt that the relationship between the lady of the Zhao family and the gentleman is close, but who would have expected it to exceed the level of ordinary sisters and brothers. If...if they do the same things as Duke Xianggong and Wenjiang in the future, what should I do? To be continued.)
