Yu Shinan noticed the extraordinary, and hurriedly went to see these amazing articles in person.

After taking the test paper, in fact, when it comes to the real article, you have to say how good it is, and some of the awards, compared with the really good articles, you can always feel that there are many deficiencies, and compared with those ancient masterpieces, it is even worse.

But...... This is the test paper.

A masterpiece through the ages is a matter of feeling, but now this test paper is a propositional composition.

What's more, the time for the exam is also limited, and the questions you come up with are particularly difficult, if you let a talented person spend ten days and half a month to write an essay, you may be amazing.

But like this, after only two hours of the test, for many people, whether they can solve the question is a problem, and even if they can solve the question, whether it can fit the meaning of the question is a difficult problem.

What's more, to derive the truth, it needs to be even, and the difficulty of this is only known to those who have really done the question.

Therefore, this is not an amazing article, which still makes Yu Shinan startled, because even if he asks himself, can he write a qualified article under this difficult problem?

He continued to read, and there were not just one or two such articles, but many.

At this time, Yu Shinan was a little confused.

Don't...... Leaked the question?

No, by no means.

Fraud is never allowed in the big exam, so countless measures have been taken, and leaking the question means the crime of raiding the family and exterminating the family. What's more, before this question was released, only he, the chief examiner, knew about this question in the world, and he had been closed in Minglun Hall during this time, without the slightest contact with the outside world.

Can...... Unless hell, I can't think of any other reason.

All of a sudden...... It also made Yu Shinan feel a little ashamed.

I thought that I had thought hard and meditated hard and came up with a good question, but this big exam would definitely shock the four seats, making countless students search their stomachs and scratch their heads and ears.

But where do you know...... There are not a few people who can make articles.

"My Tang Dynasty is so literate, has it come to this point?" Yu Shinan said embarrassedly.

The other examiners knew it in their hearts, and Bachelor Yu was obviously quite complacent about the questions he had made, but who knew that Bachelor Yu still underestimated these candidates, so he used the peak of Datang's literary spirit to cover up his embarrassment.

But at this time, who dares to say no? So they all bowed their heads and said: "Yes, yes, what Yu Gong said is very true." ”

…………

The difficulty of the exam questions has already spread all over Chang'an, but there are also many people who think they are good at the exam, and they are quite confident in their articles.

After the students in the university hall finished the exam, they went back to the school directly, and then closed the door and continued to study hard.

For the teaching and research group, this is just a big exam, and there will be an exam next, where is there a possibility of half a point of relaxation?

It's just that this university hall is surprisingly low-key, but it can't help but get a lot of ridicule, saying that the university hall has a little bit of three-legged cat kung fu, and now it has run out of donkey skills.

In fact, this can also be understood, the bloodline theory is the mainstream in this era, people believe that different people, the blood flowing in the body is also different, the blood of the clan is purer, the cold family is second, as for the ordinary people, too dirty.

Previously, the university hall was surprisingly successful, and now the ethnology of the world has begun to learn the same, so ...... There will be no capital in the university hall anymore.

Of course, this is just an after-dinner conversation.

Although Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but be annoyed when he heard this, it was impossible to tie people up one by one and beat them up, but fortunately, in Erpigou, everyone still had confidence in the university hall.

At this time, the craftsmen came in a hurry, because the new bearings had been made.

This bearing has been improved again and again, and it is getting closer and closer to practicality.

Ancient craftsmen often used ingenious skills for certain delicate objects, but since the workshop, everything has changed.

For the craftsman's workshop, dozens of skilled craftsmen polish day and night, and it is certainly not a problem to make a few near-perfect bearings.

But the problem is that with the emergence of the workshop economy, the craftsman workshop has to consider not only the problem of craftsmanship, but also the cost of large-scale manufacturing.

And now...... This ball bearing in Chen Zhengtai's hands, Chen Zhengtai felt quite heavy, between the inner shaft and the outer shaft is a ball, once the outer shaft rotates, the balls inside also roll, the whole bearing appears extremely smooth.

Chen Zhengtai played with it for a while, and came with great interest: "Such a bearing...... Can it be manufactured on a large scale? ”

"The steel workshop there, specially made abrasives, after large-scale grinding, but still need craftsmen to polish it manually, to achieve accuracy, now if it is production, a day to produce 30 pairs is not a problem, but ...... If some improvements are made, some processes are reduced, a new group of craftsmen is trained, etc., the output is ...... It will definitely increase on a large scale. ”

On the craftsman's side, he didn't dare to deceive Chen Zhengtai and answered honestly.

Chen Zhengtai's eyes lit up, but he said, "What if...... What if this thing was used to connect the wheels of the carriage? You see, the outer axle is in the rim...... This carriage ...... Wouldn't it be possible to do more with less? ”

Several craftsmen in the craftsman's room were stunned.

One of them is also a member of the Chen family, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows...... He suddenly understood what Chen Zhengtai meant.

In this era, there was no large-scale popularization of sedan chairs. It's just that in the south, because of the rugged mountain roads, there is a sedan chair, and the center of the economy, politics and culture at this time is the north, and there are more plains in the north, so most people are used to carriages, even if the emperor travels, the carriage is mainly driven by carriages.

It's just that the carriage of this era has a bit of an indescribable taste.

On the one hand, there are no good bearings, so there is a lot of friction between the axles, Fermat.

On the other hand, because there is no shaft in the chassis, most of the carriages are two-wheeled.

There is no way to do this, after all, the axles and wheels are mostly wooden, and the friction is high, so the carriage is still very difficult to walk on the muddy road when in use!

Compared with the four-wheeled carriage, the two-wheeled carriage walked faster on such a road, and the ground in ancient times was mostly uneven, such a road surface, the four-wheeled carriage was indeed a little difficult to walk, and it was difficult for a horse to pull.

What's more, the steering of the carriage is a big problem.

Because of this, most carriages only have two wheels, and the comfort of these two carriages is extremely poor, and it is very bumpy to sit on, which is why later, after the appearance of the sedan chair, it quickly began to become popular.

Chen Zhengtai's idea is very simple, now with this bearing, the friction can be greatly reduced, if the chassis of the carriage is improved, then it will be more appropriate.

After Chen Zhengtai mentioned this, the people in the craftsman's room suddenly seemed to have enlightenment.

This bearing in the hand, not to mention the windmill, for now, this carriage can not be used?

Chen Zhengtai repeatedly instructed: "If this carriage is to be built, it must be four-wheeled, and the carriage can be built wider, and you can try it." ”

The craftsmen are very mobile, after all...... They have a lot of experience in research.

Often, a direction is found, and an experienced veteran craftsman immediately begins to set up the project, and then begins to allocate manpower, allocate funds, and then start to divide the project into many teams, and the person in charge of the project acts as the chief engineer to carry out the resource allocation and the overall process of the project.

Now that the bearing is out, the concept proposed by Chen Zhengtai can come naturally.

It's not too hard.

Soon, a horse-drawn carriage was built.

This was followed by validation and refinement, and everything went very well.

Especially in the suburbs, when people tried to use horse-drawn carriages with rolling bearings, they found that these four-wheeled carriages and horses, even if the roads were muddy, would never be strained.

Four wheels, compared to the second wheel, people are obviously much more comfortable to sit in, and it can even be called enjoyment.

Although it is four-wheeled, the same horse, because of the rolling bearing, is actually stronger than the two-wheeled car, and the horsepower is maximized.

Thereupon...... A large carriage was made, not small, with elaborate carvings on the outside, comfortable software on the inside, and a sign hanging in front of the carriage...... Mengjin Chen.

Two days later, Chen Zhengtai sat in this car, and under the escort of Xue Rengui on horseback, he began to swagger through the market.

People were curious when they saw such a strange and exquisite car suddenly appear on the road!

The car was spacious, and it was pulled by only one horse, but it looked like it was at ease, and the four wheels rotated at the same time, which was exceptionally stable.

Chen Zhengtai, who was sitting in the car, actually had a feeling of being separated from the world, he had personally learned the two-wheeled carriage, to be honest...... In such a carriage, people in it are simply sinful. And now...... Finally enjoyed.

Because of the bearings, even the noise in the car is much less.

And because of the leniency, the whole person can almost lie down in the soft cushion, take a nap, the carriage stops, and the coachman in front of him drives the carriage up, quite cautiously.

But...... He seemed to be very pleased with the new carriage as well.

If it is a two-wheeled carriage, the position in which he drives is often narrow, and the road is bumpy, and in many places, the coachman cannot sit on the chariot to catch the chariot, so he has to get out of the carriage and lead the horse forward.

But now, he is sitting here comfortably, holding a whip in his hand, controlling the speed of the horse, and the carriage behind him is heavy, but the horsepower of the horse is enough.

In the past, two-wheeled carriages were often just a curtain to isolate the carriage from the outside world, and it was also noisy.

Now, this carriage is specially designed with a door, and Chen Zhengtai opens the door from the inside and comes out.

I saw that outside the carriage, many people looked at each other with rare faces, and they were judging one by one.

In front of the Taiji Gate, many courtiers are preparing to enter the palace to meet or be on duty, at this time the palace door has not yet opened, these ministers with goldfish bags tied around their waists, waiting here as usual.

When I suddenly saw a carriage like this, I wanted to see it.

"Is this horse such a divine steed? How can you pull such a wide carriage? ”

The Tang people still love horses, and Wenchen is no exception, and the atmosphere is like this, so many people have doubts.

Some people also found that this horse seems to be no more than a breed, and there is nothing remarkable about it.

And also...... This car is actually four wheels, four wheels, how to turn?

People like Fang Xuanling and Eldest Sun Wuji, after all, are still very generous, and they didn't go to join in the fun, they just stopped in front of the palace gate, looking like an old god was there.

But for others, this may not be the case.

Just when everyone was discussing with great interest, suddenly the car door opened, and Chen Zhengtai came out of it.

All of a sudden, many people's faces changed slightly, and then ...... They each rolled their eyes and dispersed directly.

Fang Cai's interest was also swept away.

Hum...... The Chen family is showing off their wealth!

Isn't it just four wheels?

In the future, I will also install two more wheels for my carriage, no...... Pack four more so that I have six, and you have four, is that a lot?

This Chen Zhengtai likes to be unconventional, isn't it just a few stinky money, what's the big deal? The gentleman is poor...... The villain is poor.

Hmph, look at the way he looks.

Of course, there are also some people who come forward to greet Chen Zhengtai with a smile.

After all, people are different, and some people want to show that they are incompatible with Meng Jin Chen.

Naturally, there will be people who take this opportunity and want to put a thigh on themselves.

Chen Zhengtai greeted them with a smile: "Hello." ”

"Chen Zhan is good, Chen Zhan, where did this car come from? Yes...... It's quite chic. ”

Chen Zhengtai smiled and said: "This is our Chen family, after three generations of painstaking research and development of our ancestors, and spent countless heavy sums of money, the four-wheeled vehicle made by this car is called Mercedes-Benz, which means galloping. Today...... Finally, this car is completed, don't underestimate this thing, everything in this carriage is very particular. ”

Three generations of ancestors......

Three generations before your Chen ancestors, it was still the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the dynasties were changed by three, not to mention the emperor, who changed six or seven.

The people who greeted Chen Zhengtai all laughed dryly, this smile was very tactful, anyway, how you Chen Zhengtai blows, we will listen to it, and if we believe it, we will lose.

Chen Zhengtai continued to smile and said: "This car is extremely comfortable, do you want to go in and try it?" ”

Everyone waved their hands: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Chen Zhengtai looked regretful: "That's it, but it's okay, next time you want to try, you can find me." But now this car, hehe, you tried it really isn't suitable, this thing, but it's worth 10,000 gold, and money can't buy it. ”

Didn't you just add two wheels?

Everyone only felt that Chen Zhengtai had insulted his IQ.

But...... People who can deal with Chen Zhengtai are not afraid of being insulted.

Since the construction of Shuofang City, the Guannei clan has been full of complaints, coupled with the conflict between Chen Zhengtai and the famous Wu Youjing, which Chen Zhengtai has attracted the disgust of many people.

The person standing in the distance looked disdainful of Chen Zhengtai, and when he heard the words worth 10,000 gold, he was even more furious.

At this time, the palace door slowly opened.

The ministers put away their mood and rushed in.

Chen Zhengtai did not seem to enter the court to go to the court, but hurriedly went in another direction.

Li Shimin met the ministers in the Taiji Hall today.

He wore a crown and a crown of heaven on his head, and when all the ministers had saluted, he bowed his head.

His face today is obviously a little haggard, in fact, he has not slept well in the past few days, and he has been thinking about the imperial examination!

Now there is still some time before the release of the list, but I don't know how many readers can be named on the gold list.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." At this moment, the first person stood up and said eloquently.
