It's a good idea.

But Hong Yanwu never thought that what he originally thought was quite simple would not be so simple to do.

He's in big trouble.

If you want to talk about money, he has it.

Not to mention twenty three-wheelers, he can buy thousands of them.

If you want to talk about power, it's just pedaling a tricycle and working hard.

It is best to apply for such a business license, and it is absolutely a trivial matter to follow Song Guofu's door.

But the problem is that there are no cars!

It turned out that the kind of passenger tricycle he needed to carry people had been discontinued by manufacturers in Beijing since the sixties.

In the revolutionary years, the four olds were broken, and the class struggle was emphasized.

At that time, even the famous restaurant was changed to a "popular dish", where would there be a scene of the old man riding the car and the poor pedaling?

There are really those who dare to pull, but there are no ones who dare to sit?

In addition, bus lines had been developed at that time to meet the needs of urban transportation.

As a result, the existence of tricycles and passenger tricycles is no longer necessary.

Soon, they were all changed to flat three-wheelers for pulling goods.

For the next 20 years, it never appeared on the streets of the capital again.

So now, Hong Yanwu suddenly came up with the idea of looking for this kind of human-powered tricycle that can carry passengers, but found that there was nowhere to go.

Now he's sitting on wax.

If you can't buy a car, what else can you pull?

Seeing that such an excellent plan had to be destroyed before it could be implemented, he was really a little depressed.

However, as the saying goes, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue are auspicious, otherwise the pole Tai will come to the home and be peaceful.

Count Hong Yanwu, this kid has a good retribution.

Because he was afraid that Li Fu would be hot in summer, he took the time to buy an electric fan and sent it to the old man.

As a result, Li Fu saw that he was a little stuffy and unenergetic, so he asked a few questions.

I didn't expect to stumble into it by mistake, he really found a rut here in Li Fu.

Dare to love Li Fu is really worthy of being the "head of the hall" of the old Hong family, and he is clear about the five elements and eight things in the elderly.

Especially because of work, he is even more familiar with the rickshaw driver who often pulls people at the door of "Yanmei Building" to send off guests.

In this way, after learning about Hong Yanwu's embarrassment and what he wanted to do.

He found that Hong Yanwu, a layman, had a misunderstanding in his thinking, so he opened his mouth to point out the direction of solving the problem.

If you want to talk about this, you have to start with foreign cars.

You know, the reason why foreign cars are called "foreign cars" is because they came from the East.

Huhai is called rickshaw, Jinmen is also called rubber, and Huacheng can be called a car.

This type of car was originally made of hard rubber wheels, painted black, with high wheels and short handlebars.

It is likely that the little Japanese are small and can't run fast in a wooden puller.

It's similar to the TV series "Zi Sanshiro", anyway, it's not comfortable for people to sit on it.

Later, with pneumatic tires, the people of Beijing made a transformation.

The handlebars were deliberately lengthened, the wheels were lowered, and the carriage was heightened, so that it became the one in the movie "Camel Xiangzi".

In this way, it saves effort, runs briskly, and sits much more comfortably.

Like there is a local saying in the old capital - "It's so beautiful that you are a butt".

It was born to describe what it's like to ride in such a foreign car.

In fact, before 1937, foreign cars pulled and run by people in front of them had always been the main means of transportation in Beijing.

But after 1937, the first human-powered tricycle was given to Jiang Chaozong, the "chairman of the Beiping Public Security Maintenance Association", when the Japanese entered the city.

Gradually, the foreign cars in the capital were replaced by this new means of transportation.

One is that tricycles are faster, more comfortable, and less laborious than foreign vehicles.

On the other hand, there is also a reason why the Japanese are interested in promoting it.

This is because it was adapted by the Japanese on the basis of foreign cars and bicycles.

How bad the little devil is, you see that he will give you a military invasion on the front foot, and an economic occupation on the back foot.

Shaking wits is much more place, but it looks very ugly, and it will never be able to change the philistine spirit of the next work.

As for the most well-known car factory in the capital back then.

One is the "Maoshun Depot" in the south of Donghuamen Street, and the other is the "Qishun Car Factory" in Xijiaomin Lane.

It's a pity that although they are car factories, these two are essentially car-making workshops composed of carpenters and blacksmiths.

There is no cash for equipment and raw materials.

In addition to the wood, paint cushions, cushions, and canopies are made by the car manufacturers themselves.

Even the copper that is used for copper work is also purchased from Japanese foreign companies.

This is especially true for important parts like inner tubes, take-outs, strips, balls, bearings, bows, handbells, footbells, horns, and more.

Before the fall of Beiping, it was ordered from the British and Germans.

After the "77 Incident", they all had to be purchased from the Japanese.

So, it's just such a foreign car.

Don't look at the price of more than 100 oceans, when it is expensive, it is less than 200.

But the car factory only earns seven or eight yuan, and at the best time, ten yuan and twenty yuan.

This was the level of national industry at that time, and it was really shabby.

But I have to say that our people know how to enjoy, and the craftsmanship work of the past is good.

The foreign cars and tricycles that have been saved are better than those built by foreigners in terms of comfort and appearance.

Like the carriage at that time, it was soft with cushions, and with an elevation angle, which was comfortable to lean.

The box must be made of cork, and the outside must be sealed with iron sheets.

From the periphery of the carriage, three white copper wires are carded until the dustpan.

Such a car is stable and shockproof with Dunlop's tires.

People sit in it, even if the road conditions are bad, they will not be unbearable.

In addition, there are copper handrails installed behind the carriage for the driver and the special "car-grabbing" handholder.

When you really encounter a steep slope, one person pedals and one person pushes, which can also make you go up comfortably and come down safely.

Finally, there are some accessories that have been added to the table and are very thoughtful in terms of all weather conditions.

Like the strips of the canopy, it is to be covered with brass, and it is to be made with elbows (i.e., branches).

The canopy is covered with water cage cloth, and a large curtain is in front.

This can be retracted at any time for shelter from the elements.

The left and right fenders and handrails of the car must also be covered with white copper.

It is also necessary to install a lamp for night lighting.

The car mat and car backrest are white cloth with red cloth edges, and the car foot pad is a rectangular woven carpet.

The most convenient thing is that you have to have an Oriental foot bell, and you can call the driver to stop at any time by stepping on it.

With so much foreshadowing ahead, at this time, Li Fu's truly meaningful guidance came.

The old man who dared to love said that he had to follow Hong Yanwu's thoughts.

The car he wants is beautiful, comfortable, and historical.

You have to find the old people in the car factory in the past.

Except for the people back then, no one knows how to make such things.

It's just that the passenger three-wheeler is not discontinued now, and the things mass-produced by the factory are too simple and completely do not meet his requirements.

To put it bluntly, what Hong Yanwu wants is not a standard industrialized product, but a product saved by the combination of handicraft and industrialization.

If you want to solve this problem, it is actually difficult to say, and it is easy to say.

The difficulty lies in the fact that making this kind of car is labor-intensive, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

The production cycle is long, and coppersmiths, carpenters, lacquerers, and mechanics all have to be used, and several people have to cooperate.

In the end, because I had to buy materials, I bought a lot of ready-made accessories for assembly.

In this way, the cost is high, and I am afraid that the price of two cars will be enough for one car.

And the easy part is that as long as you find the right person, let the family transform the ready-made tablet three-wheeler.

Coincidentally, he knew a coppersmith from the "Maoshun Depot", who lived in the "Fresh Fish Mouth" not far away.

I think that as long as people agree to help, about everyone else will be able to find it.

Besides, Nancheng is a gathering place for craftsmen, and even if you can't find the old guy, it must be difficult to find someone who can replace you.

Okay, hearing this, can Hong Yanwu not be excited?

He said in his heart that there was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it.

If it weren't for Uncle Li's suggestion, Rao would have scratched the back of his head, his eyes were straight, and it would be difficult to prescribe medicine.

And he really didn't expect that a human tricycle would be so exquisite, and it was exciting to listen to.

If he really wants to make such a car, it is far beyond the level of the three wheels in Shichahai that he remembers.

Not only is it beautiful and comfortable, but it is also a shock on the street, which is majestic enough.

It's definitely not worse than Mercedes-Benz or Audi.

If foreigners want to see it, they must want to "fart, fart".

Then pay for it......
