Chapter 831: Two-wheeled wooden cart
There are also people who are just gathering troops and horses to prepare to pursue, and they look like they are doing a lot to express their dissatisfaction.
Some people also took the initiative to contact Li Yuan, hoping that he would stand up and uphold justice.
Where did Li Yuan have time to argue with them, when the Wagang soldiers withdrew, the Li family's soldiers and horses exchanged guards with them.
The number of soldiers and horses of the Li family in the city defense has increased, and it has become the largest force in Luoyang, and there are already people who have decided to take refuge.
The situation in Luoyang was soon transmitted back to Youzhou, but Li De didn't care too much, it would take time for Li Yuan, so many anti-kings in Luoyang, to really occupy Luoyang.
"Dadudu, the two-wheeled vehicle has been made, and the whole vehicle is composed of rubber wooden wheels and metal bearings and gears......"
The production of bicycles, Li De where there is a craftsman introduction.
Directly on the car and rode out of the distance, the craftsmen who watched were surprised, and when they reacted, they shouted: "Dadu Governor be careful!" ”
They are not sure whether they have mastered the balance of the bicycles they have just built, how can Li Deke be an old driver who overturns.
Take a few laps around the flat field and experience the feeling of chasing the wind for a long time.
"Look, the bike runs like it's running on the ground, it's so fast."
The craftsmen are all watching, the speed is beyond the reach of running, and the craftsmen who produce are slowly happy.
"With this thing, in the words of the Grand Duke, it will definitely lead the trend of the times and change the lives of the people."
Li De found some problems when he experienced chasing the wind, no hollow tires can't work, and now hard tires can only increase the wear resistance of wooden tires, but they can't solve the problem of bumps.
The main thing is that there are no hollow tires that can't support the weight of the bike, and it is very difficult to use.
As for the craftsmen, they can't run as fast as they say, and they can't meet the demand with the current situation.
Li De came back from the test car and saw the expectant eyes of the craftsmen, he felt a little surprised, how did he feel like a child who wanted to be praised.
"What do you guys look at, the bike is not bad, but it can only be regarded as a low-profile version."
The craftsmen are a little embarrassed, don't they all have bonuses and benefits after successfully manufacturing new products according to the convention, is it because their skills are not at home?
Li De didn't know that when he was silent, all the craftsmen did a self-examination in their hearts.
"It's not bad, the gears and chains are very well built."
I have to say that Li De is quite satisfied with the chains built by the craftsmen, and the lathes driven by the extensive use of steam power can make gears and chains very standard, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has reached the first industrial level in the Sui Kingdom.
"Governor, can the bicycle be put into production?"
The craftsmen were looking forward to it, and they felt that the bike would bring them a lot of wealth.
Li De thought about it and felt that although the current bicycle has many shortcomings and is not very good to use, it can still be produced.
"Let's produce 500 units first and see how the market reacts."
Li De approved, and the funds for the workshop were available.
Workers began to manufacture bicycle chains, but a special production equipment was developed.
The cost of building equipment is enormous, which is why craftsmen expect so much from the fact that their success can only be reflected in the profit earned for the workshop. qq
The craftsmen of the workshop are in charge of the production, and he does not have to worry about calling a meeting of the R&D team immediately after the commissioning.
"The low-profile version of the bike is just the beginning, and the bike is still defective, so this tire is a hard injury."
After Li De said the shortcomings, the senior craftsmen of the development team were very calm, this problem has always existed, and not only that, as long as it involves tires, it is the same.
They also want to make hollow tires, and with the current development progress, they get Li De's engineering drawings, and the progress in the development and production equipment is relatively slow.
Don't look at the ease of making tires, it is really necessary to develop production equipment, even if there are Li De's drawings and theories in the development of the progress is still very slow.
"The workshop can focus on the production equipment, and put in sixty percent of the craftsmen."
Li De knows the situation of the workshop very well, more than 30% of the resources invested are super-large projects, and the number of craftsmen in Youzhou has doubled today, and at the same time, there are more projects to produce, and more than 30% of the resources can be invested in large projects.
For example, the production of artillery accounts for 50% of the resources, and the craftsmen deployed are all high-level craftsmen, and they have invested heavily in the development of new weapons.
Sixty percent of the resources invested in bicycles are invested in one fell swoop, and it can be said that most people will have to work on bicycle projects in the future.
"Metropolitan Governor, there are many projects in the workshop, and if sixty percent of the resources are allocated, the implementation of other projects needs to be suspended, which may affect production."
"Outsourcing as appropriate, the sixteen states of thistle, and the workshops in other states should be contacted in time."
Li De solved the problem in one sentence.
The craftsmen could only listen, they really didn't want to hand over production to other state capitals, and they had already started work with bonuses.
Although they don't want to just make bicycle production equipment, they will have more profits, and they have the motivation to do things with hope.
Li De personally supervised the craftsmen, and all of them were optimistic about this project.
The first prototype car was ridden away by Li De, and it was more comfortable than riding a carriage along the way, although the shock absorption of the hard rubber was worse, but the saddle was deliberately supported by springs and was still acceptable.
Li De's idea, since the tires can't absorb shock, can only use the idea on the saddle, in fact, inspired by the old-fashioned 28 bicycle.
"Hey, that's the Duke?"
Li De was watched all the way on his bicycle, and many children ran after him.
It is not surprising that Li De is interested in novelties, and in order to take care of the children behind him, he is afraid that they will run too fast and fall to the point of falling and deliberately slowing down.
No one in Youzhou didn't know him, even if someone followed, no one dared to come up to surround him, so it took half an hour to travel, and when he entered the city, he was delayed for an hour.
In the end, Li De stopped riding and began to push the bicycle, and there were many more people around him.
chatting with the governor all the way, the people were all very enthusiastic, and some people came over to help push the cart, Li De did not refuse.
He knew that most people came for their bikes, and he certainly wouldn't miss a pitch.
"Don't worry, the bike is already in production, and it won't be long before it goes on the market."
When they came to the gate of Youzhou City, the people dispersed.
Li De soon returned to the Governor's Mansion, and the bicycle also attracted the onlookers of the ladies, Zhang Chuchen is a practical person, and he began to try it himself without waiting for Li De to say a word.
They are all martial arts practitioners, and their sense of balance is very good, and it is easy to tip over if they are not suitable for the car at first.
Li De looked at it for a while, and then said: "Out of the dust, you don't have to worry about falling, just pedal the car to make the car move." ”
