With a cold snap from the north, Chang'an City entered [My Love] into winter.

The trees on both sides of Suzaku Street have lost their leaves, and occasionally a few crows are "Wow!" on the branches. Wow! Wow! Screamed.

However, although the weather has become colder, the flow of people on the streets shows no signs of decreasing.

Today's people in Chang'an City may be a little exaggerated to describe it as worry-free about food and clothing.

But at least it won't be hungry and unclothed.

In particular, the popularity of wool threads and the introduction of cotton cotton clothes have made everyone have many choices for warmth.

In addition, the number of workshops in Chang'an City has been increasing in recent years, and everyone has more opportunities to make money, and it is no problem to buy a thick winter coat.

"Jingle bell!"

"Jingle bell!"

Crisp ringing bells, ringing from time to time from the streets.

Compared with the sound of horses' hooves, the ringing of the bicycle is obviously more pleasant.

"Wu Guo, with this bicycle, it is much more convenient for us to inspect the branches of various bread Xinyu."

Fang Yiyu and Wu Guo, riding a bicycle alone, galloped down the street.

As the two girls who are close to the Chu Palace, they accepted Li Kuan's formal clothes early.

Although they are not wearing the popular uniform styles among the women of the Qinglou, they are dressed in khaki straight trousers, paired with a pink woolen sweater, and a fox fur vest on the outside, giving people a heroic and sassy feeling.

If it weren't for the fact that they were followed by a pair of guards, it is estimated that many people would have stopped them to "ask for directions".

"It's convenient, but if the weather continues to get colder, it's more comfortable to ride in a four-wheeled carriage."

Wu Guo felt that his face was chilled by the cold wind, and he was a little worried about his skin cracking.

"That's right. But as long as it's not snowing, and you wear gloves and a hat, it doesn't matter how cold it is. ”

Fang Yiyu has a bit of Fang Yiyu's personality, and she doesn't look like a lady at all.

If it weren't for Fang Xuanling's direct and fatherly style, it is estimated that Fang Xuanling and his wife would be angry to death by a few babies.

"I heard that in the past few days, there are more people who come to Bread Xinyu to drink afternoon tea than in the past. When the weather is cold, make a pot of black tea, sit on the window seat on the second floor of Bread Xinyu, and eat a piece of doughnut, it seems to be quite good. ”

Wu Guo is now focused on bread Xinyu, and he is very clear about every change in the store.

It's not like Fang Yiyu, it's just three minutes of enthusiasm.

On a whim, he took Wu Guo to the shops for a walk.

When I look back, I may not be able to remember that I am still one of the owners of Bread Xinyu for ten and a half months.

"When you say that, I feel a little hungry."

Fang Yiyu and Wu Guo chatted while skillfully pedaling their bicycles.

Bicycles, as long as you overcome the initial little fear, you can get started quickly.

And just a few more rides, and you'll be a skilled player.

On the street, there are many people riding bicycles like Fang Yiyu and them.

……

In the compound of the newspaper office of Datang Daily, a row of specially made bicycles is parked there.

Different from the bicycles on the street, these bicycles in the yard also have two wooden boxes installed on both sides of the back seat.

Needless to say, these wooden boxes were definitely used to hold newspapers.

In order to improve the efficiency of newspaper delivery, Luo Bingwang specially communicated with Wang Xuance and found a permanent bicycle workshop to customize a batch of bicycles.

For "Datang Daily", it is definitely more appropriate to use a four-wheeled carriage to transport newspapers from Chang'an City to Luoyang, Liangzhou and other places.

However, for the transportation between various shops in Chang'an City, bicycles are more convenient.

In particular, when the newspaper arrives in the workshop, it has to be delivered to the door of the person who specially ordered it, or to the newspaper and periodical sales point of various honeycomb coal shops, and there is no suitable means of transportation, and the efficiency is relatively low.

"Xuan Ce, I really have to thank you this time. The permanent bicycle workshop has such a tight capacity that it has made time for us to make these bikes. ”

Luo Bingwang saw the staff who delivered the newspaper methodically loading bundles of newspapers into the boxes on both sides of the back seat of the bicycle, and then slipped out of the compound with a smile on his face.

"Sightseeing, you're welcome. It's not so much about helping you build your bike, it's about thanking you for finding a new way to use it. The prince attaches more importance to bicycles than any workshop in the past. According to his plan, our permanent bicycle workshop will at least become a super workshop with annual sales of more than one million, and I am under a lot of pressure. ”

Wang Xuance's speaking level is naturally not comparable to ordinary people.

is obviously helping "Datang Daily", but it still makes people feel that they will not be embarrassed at all.

Of course, what Wang Xuance said is not false.

"Datang Daily" took the lead in using bicycles to transport newspapers in Chang'an City, and other newspapers such as "Chang'an Evening News" and "Qujiang Daily" saw it, and they must have followed suit.

This can be regarded as finding a new use case for bicycles.

"The bike doesn't look complicated, but there's a lot involved. For example, the bearings and chains are very difficult to make, and the requirements for steel are also very high. The more permanent bicycles are sold, the more experience each workshop can accumulate, and ultimately our Datang's industrial level can reach a new level. ”

As the person in charge of "Datang Daily", Luo Bingwang's scientific outlook is naturally not bad.

In fact, the personnel related to the Chu Wangfu can be regarded as the strongest group of people in this era.

"Yes, I heard that in Guanshishan Academy, several research institutes are working on something new. However, because the process is not advanced enough, or other reasons, there has been no way to produce results. In the past few days, Wang Ye frequently went to the academy to give classes to the students, just to give everyone more inspiration. I have a hunch that in a few years, something that has never been seen before will appear in Chang'an City. ”

Although Wang Xuance is not particularly clear about the things in the Guanshishan Academy, as a person with a special status in the Chu Palace, he still knows a little.

In particular, the steam engine developed by Li Kuan attracted Wang Xuance's attention.

"I think so, too. In order to make the people of Chang'an City more interested in all kinds of things, I am going to add a page to the "Datang Daily" to introduce various scientific terms and scientific knowledge. The prince even suggested that our newspaper solicit science fiction articles from everyone in Chang'an City and publish them in the newspaper as a new serial. ”

"Science fiction?"

"That's right, it's a kind of article that incorporates various fantasies and settings about science and technology. But I don't know much about the specifics, I'm going to take some time to ask the prince. ”
