Chapter 269: Wheelchair Order

Li An gave the wheelchair to Li Yi, which solved Li Yi's big trouble, usually, because he was carried by four servants, it was very inconvenient, so Li Yi almost never went out, at most, he let the male servant carry him, and went around in the back garden of the palace, and the time was generally short, after all, he had been carried by others, and he felt useless and became a waste.

And with a wheelchair, it's different, so that only one servant can easily push him to walk, which is extremely convenient, and it is more decent, Li Yi is naturally more willing to come out to move, and even, you can go out to chat with old friends Zhao or something.

"Da Lang, how did you come up with the idea of making a wheelchair, you can think of such an ingenious thing?"

Li Yi stroked the wheelchair and sighed with admiration.

Of course Li An won't tell the truth, after all, crossing this kind of thing is really outrageous, if you say it, you will either frighten Li Yi and Li Shizhi, or they will think that you have hysteria, and if it is more serious, you will be escorted into the hospital and handed over to the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment, if this is the case, it will be troublesome.

"Da Ah Weng, since I learned that you have bad legs and feet, often stuffy in the mansion, my grandson has been pondering, how to make it convenient for you to travel, at first my grandson also thought of letting people lift chairs, but this is too troublesome, and very inconvenient, later, my grandson thought of making a smaller car, let the next person push, so that it can be much more convenient, but after the small cart was made, the grandson still felt that it was not good enough, and it was not convenient enough, just at that time there was a chair next to it, and the grandson thought, if the small cart is made as small as the chair, how good it would be! So he told the idea to several craftsmen, who listened to it and thought it would be a good idea, and after a period of trial and modification, the wheelchair was made. ”

Li An smiled and said the invention process of the wheelchair easily.

Although the invention of the wheelchair is a great thing, every step is so ordinary, as if, as long as a little smarter people, should think of this, so, after Li Yi and Li Shizhi listened, they did not have the slightest doubt, and at the same time, they were moved by Ang Lee's heart, especially Li Yi, who heard that Ang Lee deliberately spent energy to develop a wheelchair in order to facilitate his own travel, and sighed.

"Da Lang should have been developing wheelchairs for a while, at that time, I was afraid that I didn't know my identity, and it was really commendable to invent a wheelchair for the old people I had never met."

Li Yi expressed heartfelt emotion from the bottom of his heart.

At that time, although I had never met Da Ah Weng and did not know the kinship, my grandson grew up listening to the story of Da Ah Weng since he was a child, and he admired Da Ah Weng very much, and invented a small wheelchair to facilitate Da Ah Weng's travel, and also did a little bit of his heart."

Although there is an element of sycophancy, it is Ang Lee's heart, and there is not much falsehood.

Li Yi listened, his heart was sweeter than eating honey, he had been fighting all his life, and had made countless contributions to the Tang Dynasty, asking himself, there was no place to owe the court, let alone a place to owe the people, so when I heard that Li An admired him, he completely accepted it in his heart, and he did not feel ashamed of it.

When Li Shizhi heard this, he was more concerned about who told Li Yi's story to Li An, and asked with feeling.

"Six Ah Weng, my Ah Weng often tells the story of the big Ah Weng, and the elders in the village will often mention the deeds of the big Ah Weng, if anyone dares to put forward a different opinion, it will inevitably be attacked by everyone, and there is no one in the world who does not respect the big Ah Weng."

Li An appropriately patted a sycophant, in a place like White Wolf Village, there are really not many people who know Li Yi's deeds, these words are completely Li An's nonsense, without the slightest factual basis.

Li Shizhi and Li Yi have never been to White Wolf Village, let alone the grassroots of the poor people, and of course they don't know what the grassroots think of them, so they can't see through Li An's words at all, and Li An chose to pat himself on the back to make Li Yi happy, so that Li Yi may be able to live for a few more years.

"Big brother, if you can get the admiration of the people of the world, your life is worth it, it's worth it, haha!"

Li Shizhi also followed with a sycophant.

Li Yi's expression was very excited, it could be seen that he was very happy, he could be admired by the people of the world, it was the wish of a high-ranking person, although Li Yi was relatively low-key and did not pay much attention to fame, but in his bones he still hoped that his image was glorious and tall.

Seeing Li Yi so happy, Li An and Li Shizhi glanced at each other, and they were also happy, after all, they are all a family, if Li Yi can live a few more years, both of them will be very happy.

Li Yi touched the handwheel rim on the wheelchair and asked curiously: "Da Lang, why does this wheelchair have two more rings, does this have a special effect?" ”

After years of marching and fighting, Li Yi has formed a good thinking that loves to think, and he knows that since the wheelchair has been manufactured, every facility must be useful, but he can't guess it for a while.

Li An easily opened his hands, stepped aside, and said softly: "Da Weng, do you push these two circles hard with both hands to see what the reaction is?" ”

Li Yi looked at Li An sideways, put his hands on the handwheel, and pushed it hard, and as he pushed hard, the whole wheelchair moved forward little by little.

"It's moving, this wheelchair can actually move with its own power, haha! Well, great, great, that's a great thing! Good stuff. ”

Li Yi was extremely excited to see that he could drive a wheelchair to move, so that he could enjoy the scenery in the back garden alone without anyone accompanying him, which would greatly improve his quality of life.

"Da Weng, my grandson is still continuing to develop wheelchairs, and after some improvements in the future, the wheelchair may be easier to use, but it will take a lot of time, and the extent of the changes is mainly for comfort, and the function can no longer be changed."

Li An knows that the wheelchair given to Li Yi now is still a big gap with the wheelchair of later generations, and the comfort of use is not as good as the wheelchair of later generations, which is mainly because the scientific and technological level of this era is too low, for example, without pneumatic tires, the resistance of the wheelchair will be relatively large, think about the bicycle of later generations, after the air leak, it will be very laborious to ride, however, this era can only use soft things such as sheepskin, after all, with the technology of this era, it is impossible to make synthetic rubber, and the natural rubber tree is far away in the South American continentIt is almost impossible to change this situation in a short period of time.

In addition, the backrest of the wheelchair can be designed to conform to the physiological curve of the human body, the position of the cushion can also be designed to look like the buttocks, and even, it can be opened in the middle, so that the person in the wheelchair can sit in the wheelchair and urinate directly, which greatly increases the comfort of life, and the ventilation will also make people feel comfortable.

In short, there are still many things that can be improved in wheelchairs, as long as Ang Lee and the craftsmen of the mansion seriously tackle key problems, they can be improved step by step to make it more and more perfect.

As soon as he heard that he could make some improvements to make the wheelchair more comfortable, Li Yi's mood was even better, but he was not a selfish person, and after considering the convenience of his life, he immediately thought of those subordinates who fought with him all his life, or were sick or disabled.

He hoped that the old subordinates who were still in the house would be able to sit in comfortable wheelchairs like him, so that they could also move easily with each other.

"Oh Lang! Da Ah Weng has fought all his life, there are too many injured subordinates, and many of these people have leg and foot problems, I want to give each of them a wheelchair, so that their lives will be better, and it will be convenient for each other to move around. ”

Li An immediately said: "Da Ah Weng's subordinates must be my heroes of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the wish of my grandson to be able to make them in wheelchairs, Da Ah Weng rest assured, my housekeeper has gathered nearly 100 craftsmen, and at any time, wheelchairs can be manufactured on a large scale, I don't know how much Da Ah Weng needs?" ”

Li Yi didn't calculate it carefully, and said casually: "Da Lang, you make fifty for me first, if it's not enough, I'll ask you again, in terms of price, don't be polite to Da Weng." ”

"Da Ah Weng, we are all a family, it is the wish of my grandson to give the Tang hero a wheelchair, how can we collect money? I can't accept it. ”

Li An embezzled a lot of gold in the gold mine in Hulu Valley, and now he is not short of money at all, so he naturally doesn't care about fifty wheelchairs, as long as he can make Li Yi happy, this gift is nothing.

However, Li Yi was obviously unwilling, and said angrily: "Da Lang, I have already accepted the wheelchair you gave me, as for my subordinates, it must be sent by me personally, and this money must be paid by Da Ah Weng, if you don't agree, Da Ah Weng will be angry." ”

Years of military career have filled Li Yi with a domineering spirit that is not angry and self-imposing, and it is difficult to refuse in his words.

Seeing this, Li Shizhi smiled and persuaded: "Da Lang! What's polite to your big Aweng, he is now a prince, with 500 households, and he is far more than you, don't be in vain, haha! ”

"Since Da Ah Weng insists on this, then the grandson is respectful and obedient, and fifty wheelchairs can be delivered within a month."

Li An didn't dare to insist anymore, besides, Li Yi, as the king of Xin'an, was indeed much taller than himself, and the small money of these wheelchairs was nothing to Li Yi at all, it was just a penny, and he didn't collect it for nothing.

"Da Lang, you don't have to deliver the goods together, make one and send one to my house, the money for fifty wheelchairs will be given now, pay the money first and then deliver it, so it's decided."

Another irresistible order, Li An had to accept it, and said that it would be completed as soon as possible, but the assembly lines were shipped in batches, not manufactured one by one, which must be explained to Li Yi, so as not to make him misunderstand himself, and deliberately did a good job of getting together and sending it together.

Li Yi is old, and his health is not very good, but his curiosity is undiminished, after Li An said that the assembly line operation, the products are made in batches at the same time, he immediately asked about the details, fortunately, the principle of the assembly line is not complicated, Li An explained for a while, Li Yi understood the approximately.

On the way to the back garden, Li Yi insisted on pushing the wheelchair by himself, refusing the help of Li An and Li Shizhi, because he felt that only by operating the wheelchair himself could he better reflect that he was not old, and he was still a useful person, not a waste person, after all, people are not convinced of the old, especially Li Yi, a famous general who has been fighting all his life, will not easily serve the old.

Li Yi as the king of Xin'an, the area of the mansion is really not small, even with the back garden is also a large area, in the back garden of the palace, there are all kinds of evergreens, several pavilions, and even plum blossoms that are blooming, it looks very pleasant.

In order to make the scenery more beautiful, the roads in the back garden are winding and twisted, and some sections are even paved with large stones, with depressions between every two large stones, which will not have the slightest impact on pedestrians, but for Li Yi in a wheelchair, it is very troublesome, and all such road sections are impassable in a wheelchair, which makes him very angry.

"Someone."

Li Yi suddenly shouted, and a little housekeeper who was passing by saw this and hurriedly ran over.

"Ah Lang, what do you command?"

"All the roads in the house must be paved with flat roads, and the back garden will be the same, and these must be repaved, and the thresholds of the main house and the study will be removed."

Li Yi did not hesitate to order, after all, after these changes, he could move freely in his mansion, and he no longer had to rely on the help of others.

"Yes, Aaron."

The little butler was puzzled, but since the master had given the order, he had to strictly implement it, and he could not have the slightest opinion.

The gazebo in front is very magnificent, however, the gazebo is more than a foot higher than the flat ground, divided into three steps, and it is impossible for a wheelchair to go up.

Seeing these three steps, Li Yi felt unhappy again, in fact, the gazebo of any house will be slightly higher than the flat ground, because only in this way can the gazebo be soaked by the rain when it rains heavily.

But at this moment, Li Yi will not consider the problem of rainproof, and his wheelchair cannot enter the pavilion smoothly, which makes him very unhappy.

Li An obviously saw Li Yi's thoughts, and said: "Da Weng, just lay the ramp on one side of the pavilion, and the wheelchair can go up, and the open space on the east side is slender, which is the most suitable to pave the ramp, so that the ramp is also slower." ”

Unexpectedly, Li Yi didn't think so, and said domineeringly: "The gazebo is more than a foot higher than the flat ground, and it is not easy to go up after paving the ramp, so it is better to directly lower the gazebo by one foot, only half an inch above the ground is enough." ”

Li An and Li Shizhi involuntarily glanced at each other, and were shocked by Li Yi's domineering, it didn't seem difficult to lower the ground of the pavilion by one foot, but in this way, the surrounding pillars were not beautiful, and if they wanted to maintain the beauty, they might need to rebuild the entire pavilion, but when they thought that Li Yi was the king of Xin'an, and he had a lot of money, the two of them were relieved.
