Chapter 801

Rounds!

In the amazed eyes of everyone, the carriage with a large box quickly drove onto the road and stopped there steadily.

"Old Xie, I want to ask you, how much weight can an ordinary carriage hold?"

Zhao Jingdian suddenly turned his head and asked.

"This, generally, is about seven or eight hundred catties. It will not exceed 1,200 catties at most. ”

Although he didn't understand why Zhao Jingdian asked this, Xie Gufeng still answered truthfully.

"Why 1,200 pounds?"

Zhao Jingdian asked with a smile.

"It's very simple, because if it's too heavy, the horses won't be able to pull it, or it will take three, four, or even five horses to pull it, but then it's very troublesome. If you want five horses to pull the cart together, it is not something that ordinary horses can do, nor can ordinary coachmen do. And, in addition to this, the bearing capacity of the road surface must also be considered. If it's too heavy, the wheels will get stuck in the mud and won't be able to move, or even if they can, they'll have a hard time moving. In this way, once the road is long, it will be protracted, which is contrary to the original intention of the carriage. ”

Xie Gu Feng said:

What Zhao Jingdian asked is basically common sense, as long as it is a big family, as long as it has some contact with the carriage, it should basically be understood. Merchants don't get up early, so if they can transport more people, why wouldn't everyone want to do it?

"Moreover, one thousand two hundred or two hundred, plus the weight of the carriage itself, is already very heavy, at least it has reached one thousand seven or eight hundred catties, and even close to two thousand catties, which is already very impressive. ”

Xie Gu paused and added.

"Hehe, Xie Lao, I understand. ”

Zhao Jingdian flicked his sleeves and quickly pointed to the group of Wang family guards next to him:

"You, you, you...... Go up all of you. ”

Zhao Jingdian just swiped with his hand, and immediately more than a dozen soldiers with clever hands and feet, densely packed, quickly jumped into the carriage. This strange move immediately attracted everyone's attention, and a master of a famous family immediately looked at it with great interest.

Although I don't know what Zhao Jingdian is doing, everyone understands that Zhao Jingdian is definitely doing this with a purpose, and there must be some special reason.

"Old Xie, there should be 1,200 catties here, right?"

Zhao Jingdian smiled.

"This, indeed. ”

Xie Gufeng's eyelids jumped. These guards of the Wang family are all strong and tall, and these dozen or so people go up, not only one thousand two, but at least one thousand seven or eight hundred catties.

"You, you, you, you let go!"

Zhao Jingdian smiled, stretched out his right index finger, and pulled at the other group of Wang family's guards beside him.

"Yes, sir. ”

Everyone grinned, as if they had expected it, and climbed to the carriage with ease. By now, there were already more than twenty Wang family guards in the car, and all of them were huddled together. It was at this time that everyone suddenly understood why Zhao Jingdian would make such a car body.

"Lord Zhao......"

Seeing this scene, Xie Gufeng's eyelids couldn't help jumping. More than 20 strong men, densely packed together, such a transportation style has never been seen before. That's more than two or three thousand catties.

"You, you, you...... and you will go up with you. ”

Zhao Jingdian's side still seemed to be not enough, and he pulled again, and the next moment, many more guards climbed up with a smile. Some of them are standing on the edge of the car, and some of them are hanging on the protruding part of the body. In short, the whole carriage was densely packed with figures.

For a moment, everyone froze. It is unimaginable that a carriage actually dragged more than 30 people, which is ten times more than the weight of an ordinary carriage that only pulls three or four people.

"My lord, with all due respect. You've pulled so many people up, I'm afraid it's hard to pull with just these two war horses. ”

Xie Gufeng suddenly took a few steps forward and spoke.

The carriage that Zhao Jingdian found pulled too many people, although Xie Gufeng could also feel it, he wanted to prove something to everyone, but this alone would not work.

"Haha, if it works, how do you know if you haven't tried. ”

Zhao Jingdian laughed and didn't care:

"Old Liang, let's start. ”

Zhao Jingdian gestured to the old coachman in the carriage, and drove, only to hear the whip sound, and it was whipped fiercely in the air, and then fell on the two war horses fiercely.

"Xi Yuyu!"

The war horse neighed, and the next moment, the wheel of the car turned, making a burst of roar, and in the eyes of everyone, two strong war horses moved forward carrying the body of thirty people.

At the beginning, it was obvious that the two horses were struggling and pulling slowly. But the further back we went, the faster we went, and at last the whole carriage roared, pulling the thirty-man body forward.

"Boom!"

Seeing this scene, everyone exploded at once. The originally careless gaze widened suddenly, and his face was full of surprise.

"Thirty people! How could it be! It pulled, and it was so fast!"

"What the hell is going on, this carriage has thirty people on it, and it basically can't even move. How the hell did he do it. How could a carriage be able to pull it for so many years!"

"It is impossible for the carriage to pull more than ten people, and once it is exceeded, it will sink in, sink deeply, and it will not even be able to move. How could it be so fast?"

......

The scene in front of him completely overturned everyone's perception of the load-bearing of the carriage. The people present are all disciples of great families and wealthy families, and this kind of carriage and pulling goods are generally done by subordinates, but they have to worry about it.

However, this does not mean that everyone does not understand the meaning behind this scene, if the load of the carriage can be increased tenfold, it means that the family's profit can also be increased tenfold.

They may not care about the minutiae of the carriage, but none of them are unsure of the huge profits that can be brought behind it.

However, this scene that Zhao Jingdian showed to everyone is far from over.

"Driving ——"

Hearing only a shout, the coachman named Liang Bo suddenly shook his hand and whipped it, and in the sound of Xi Yuyu's horse, the wheels parted, and a war horse neighed, and suddenly broke free from the restraints and rushed out of the blue and white "mud road".

The next moment, in the shocked eyes of everyone, the remaining war horse actually pulled more than thirty Wang family guards alone and continued to rush forward.

"This, this...... How is this possible?!What horse has so much strength? ”

"It's amazing, I've never seen anything like this in my life. ”

"Is this still a horse? How the hell did they do it, it's incredible!"

"No, it's not a horse, it's because of the car!"

"No, it's not a car, it's some kind of 'mud road'. ”

"No, it's because of the horse!"

......

The crowd argued, and everyone was shocked by the scene that had never been seen before. Zhao Jingdian listened to the sound of everyone's arguments in his ears, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and a smile was revealed.

There is an argument, which means that the scene he painstakingly arranged is not in vain, and it also means that Hou Ye's plan is working, and everything is on the right track.

Yu Yu, in the distance, the carriage also stopped after driving more than 20 zhang. Zhao Jingdian made a gesture, and more than thirty guards in the Wang family's mansion jumped down from the carriage one after another, and gathered around Zhao Jingdian.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must have seen it. This is what Hou Ye said to everyone's 'cement road', as long as this kind of road is built, our carriage will be able to bear more weight, transport more goods, generate greater profits, and save a lot of manpower and material resources. ”

Zhao Jingdian's gaze swept over everyone, his eyes were wise, and his expression was calm:

"And you should also see that our road is very smooth, and although there are more than thirty people standing in the carriage, there is not the slightest bump. You are all members of the family, you are not short of gold and silver treasures, and your business is very large, and it is inevitable that there will be some things that need to be discussed outside. If there is such a road, at least everyone will be much more comfortable when they go out, and there will not be so many bumps. ”

The surroundings suddenly quieted down, and most of the people in the family were not diligent, and they couldn't do those dirty jobs, rough jobs, heavy jobs, and tiring work, and the most greedy thing was enjoyment.

Zhao Jingdian's last sentence is even more attractive to everyone than a horse pulling thirty people. If Wang Chong really built this kind of road, everyone present would be able to benefit from it, not to mention anything else.

"What kind of mud is this...... No, it's a cement road, and we have no objection to throwing money into it, even if we invest more, it doesn't matter. But we have invested a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and when the time comes, everyone else will come and take advantage, so what should we do? Aren't we making wedding clothes for other people?"

A twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man from a family suddenly walked out and spread his hands, his eyes revealing many concerns.

"Yes, if we pay for it and others enjoy the results, then won't we be wronged?"

Another master of the family also came out and chimed in.

The masters of other families, including the Zhao family and the Bai family in the capital, looked at Zhao Jingdian one after another. Although everyone did not speak, their eyes revealed the same meaning.

"These people...... It's exactly what Childe expected. ”

Zhao Jingdian felt the gaze of everyone around him, and couldn't bear a long sigh in his heart, and became more and more respectful to Wang Chong, who was far away.

Although Wang Chong is not here, he has already expected everything that will happen and what will happen.

The family does not get up early if it is not profitable, and no one wants to do things that are not beneficial, and it is even more so to do things that are wronged. If we can't convince them, I'm afraid that the matter of building the road will be greatly compromised even if they can get their help.

If this matter is not handled well, it will have a significant impact on Hou Ye's future plans, and it may even lead to the failure of the operation in Talas.

"Fortunately, Childe has already arranged it. ”

Zhao Jingdian clasped his hands, and a thought flashed through his mind. His expression was calm, without the slightest flustery.
