Li Ang pampered Li Yaer, rolled on the soft Simmons all night, it felt much more comfortable than ordinary cotton mattresses, especially the rhythmic creaking sound of the spring, which made people listen to it very intoxicating, the louder the creaking sound, the more refreshing the feeling in my heart.

Early in the morning of the second day, Ang Lee went to the R&D center with a very happy mood to clock in to work, and after this night's personal experience, Ang Lee was already sure that the Simmons he designed was completely in line with safety standards, and it was a very good product that could make the rich people of Datang live a better life.

After all, now Datang has a steady stream of rubber resources, and there is no shortage of iron raw materials, so it is fully equipped with the conditions for mass production.

In addition to Simmons, this epoch-making product, all kinds of sofas and cushions have to be produced, the specifications of the sofa are somewhat high, only the rich can afford it, but the square rubber cushion is also affordable for ordinary citizens, a small square cushion, to the bench on the cushion, it is much more comfortable to sit on, especially for office workers who need to sit on the bench for a long time, it is the most necessary for this product, otherwise, sitting on the hard bench all the time, people's buttocks will be very painful, and even cause lesions.

Of course, the biggest role of the foamed rubber cushion is in the summer high temperature, because the hot weather is very hot, if the skin can not breathe, it will be very uncomfortable, and, in the long run, there will be a lot of red pimples, once the red pimples appear, people will sit on the bench will be very painful, in order to relieve the pain, some cotton soft cushions will be placed under the stool, so that because the ordinary cotton cloth is not breathable, coupled with the hot weather, it will make people's buttocks grow more red pimples, That is, it creates a vicious circle and makes people miserable.

The foamed rubber cushion, there are a large number of pores inside, which can be well breathable, and when processing, there are more pores, and the air permeability is better.

Of course, for some people who have unspeakable secrets, Ang Lee also made some special products, such as a foamed rubber cushion with a hole in the middle, so that when sitting on it, only the thighs and a small amount of buttocks touch the cushion, and the middle of the buttocks is suspended, so that it will not hurt, and many people who can't sit can sit down and rest with peace of mind.

When traveling, sitting on the train can be very uncomfortable, especially when you are sleepy, and if your neck is crooked, your neck may hurt, or at least it will be very sore.

In order to make the passengers in the car more comfortable, Li An invented a foamed rubber ring that can be wrapped around the neck, so that ordinary people in Datang who take the train for a long time do not have to endure the pain caused by the long-term ride, and such a small guy, the price is not very expensive, and the family conditions are slightly better, you can buy a spare, especially if you need to take the train for a long time, you should buy one.

In addition, in addition to purchasing, a batch of collar guards can also be specially prepared on the train to provide them to passengers who need them in the form of rental, of course, there is no doubt that a deposit must be paid.

After large-scale production, the market of Chang'an City, soon began to popularize these rubber products, all kinds of sofas and upholstery, became a popular commodity for citizens to buy, even if the price is relatively expensive now, there are also many people willing to pay a high price to buy, after all, the capital is still a gathering place for all the rich people in Datang, there are too many rich people.

After learning about Simmons and the sofa, Yang Yuhuan shouted that Li Anding should be the largest and most luxurious style in the Tang Dynasty, and it must be unique, not the same as the products on the market, and it must reflect the royal style.

There are also sofas and upholstery, all of which must reflect the royal momentum, and cannot be the same as those sold on the market.

And these are too simple for Ang Lee, since Simmons can be manufactured, the size and specifications are not a matter of Ang Lee's words, as long as Yang Yuhuan needs it, how big Simmons to manufacture is theoretically feasible.

As for the so-called royal style, it is too simple, it is enough to wrap the outermost layer of high-quality fabric with a golden yellow embroidered dragon and phoenix pattern.

The inside of Simmons mattresses is almost the same, all of them are spring materials, the outside is wrapped with soft rubber cushions, and the outermost high-quality fabric determines the final grade of Simmons.

Considering the special needs of the palace, Ang Lee specially ordered the manufacture of a batch of widened and enlarged Simmons, and asked the palace chamberlain to make the most luxurious Simmons jackets to supply the needs of the palace.

The sofas and other rubber coats used in the palace were all manufactured by the people of the Ministry of the Interior, and only the people of the Ministry of the Interior fully understood the needs of the Imperial Family.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji often does not go to the court, since Li An sent the made Simmons and a complete set of sofas and other equipment into the palace, Li Longji has been to the court less frequently, obviously, he wants to enjoy the pleasant feeling of lying on the sofa more.

Lying on the sofa or Simmons, stroking the delicate Yang Yuhuan, this feeling is much more interesting than the previous dynasty, the previous dynasty has to work on state affairs all day long, it is a very boring thing, anyone who is an emperor, no one likes the last dynasty, throughout the ages, it has always been like this.

Of course, the manufacture of some daily necessities is only secondary, the biggest role of rubber products, or used to manufacture industrial materials, among them, especially the production of tires, including inner tubes and outer tires, and the supporting cylinder industry, has also flourished.

Tires have small tires for bicycles, as well as heavy tires for large vehicles, and in order to match the use of these tires, the wheels of many models have been replaced, after all, there are conditions for installing pneumatic tires, not all wheels can be installed, and there must be special hubs.

After the overhaul of all vehicles, the performance of the vehicle has been greatly improved, whether it is ride comfort, speed and resource consumption, it has become less and less, and because the bumps have been greatly reduced, the probability of vehicle failure is much less than before.

And in this way, the special freight car has the possibility of popularization, for hundreds of miles and thousands of miles away, it is natural to take the train, but for tens of miles and nearly a hundred miles away, it is completely possible to take a steam freight car, of course, only the most developed urban circle is possible, if it is a remote poor place, it is impossible to achieve this situation, the people are poor, even if it is hundreds of miles are willing to run on two legs, and are not willing to spend money to take the car.

In addition to pneumatic tires, Li An also specially developed solid all-rubber tires for the ironclad artillery car troops, the effect of this tire is slightly worse than that of pneumatic tires, but there is a very big advantage, that is, not afraid of pneumatic tires, general pneumatic tires, in case of puncture, the vehicle is almost unable to move, and solid all-rubber tires are not afraid of punctures, no matter how many nails encountered, will not burst tires, which is extremely important for the military, of course, the price of this solid rubber tire is also more expensive, After all, these rubber materials are all transported from the Americas, and the transportation cost must be slightly higher, and the more materials used, the more expensive the price will naturally be.

In order to achieve high efficiency in future operations, it is necessary to use relatively expensive solid rubber tires, which will inevitably greatly improve Datang's national defense strength.

The emperor's royal carriage, in order to consider the safety performance, also uses solid rubber materials, otherwise, once the emperor is scared by a puncture, it will be difficult to do.

Most of the bikes are pneumatic tires, but Ang Lee also produces a small number of solid rubber tires, pneumatic tires are suitable for driving on flat concrete roads, and solid rubber tires are suitable for driving on complex and changeable terrain, which can also be said to be mountain bikes.

In the era of the Tang Dynasty, ordinary people travel, most of them use horses as a means of transportation, but horses have one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, there are too many accessories that need to be prepared, saddles, stirrups, bridles, etc., in addition, horses are an animal, they must eat grass every day, they need to be well cared for, and they are very troublesome, while bicycles are different, they only need to refuel once in a while, or even don't take care of them at all.

With the current production technology, the cost of producing bicycles in Datang is relatively low, the price of bicycles is cheaper than horses, and the cost of maintenance is far lower than that of horses, so as long as bicycles are popularized on a large scale, horses can soon be replaced, so as to better promote the development of the Tang Empire.

Naturally, the imperial court also saw the great role of bicycles, so it fully supported the large-scale popularization of bicycles, and established a bicycle processing workshop near the capital to start large-scale production of bicycles.

In order to increase the practicality of the bicycle, Ang Lee imitated the appearance of the bicycle in later generations, setting up a basket in front of the bicycle, and setting up a back seat that can sit on people, so that the bicycle can not only carry people, but also carry many items, which is more popular with the people.

For the sake of safety, Ang Lee also imitated the appearance of the bicycle in later generations, and set up mechanical parts that can be pressed by hand next to the handlebar, which only needs to be gently pressed to make a crisp sound, so as to remind the person in front that there is a car coming behind.

After the bicycles were produced, they began to be sold in the capital, and dozens of craftsmen who had learned to ride bicycles were scattered around the streets of the capital, riding back and forth to create an atmosphere of cycling and let the citizens buy them.

After trying to ride a few bikes in person, many people are willing to buy bicycles, after all, this kind of guy is much more affordable than riding a horse, both in terms of price and maintenance costs, it is more affordable than riding a horse.

After the bicycle entered the market of the capital on a large scale, tens of thousands of vehicles were sold in just over a month, not only the people of the capital bought, but also many Hu businessmen from the Western Regions, after experiencing the wonders of the bicycle in person, bought dozens or even hundreds of them as soon as they made a move, ready to bring them back to their country to sell.

Of course, anyone who buys a bicycle is most concerned about what to do if the vehicle is broken, after all, the price of the bicycle is still not cheap, in case it breaks, you can't throw it away! If it breaks and throws it away, it's not cost-effective.

Before pushing the bicycle into the market, Li Ang took this problem into account, so he has trained a group of professional bicycle maintenance masters in advance, and asked them to set up bicycle repair shops in various locations in the capital, once some people's bicycles are broken, they can be repaired at any time, and the cost is absolutely fair and reasonable.

As for the maintenance of some Western Regions Hu businessmen, Li Ang has also thought about it for a long time, and can tell them the maintenance technology, and sell more to some generals who are easily damaged, so that they can repair the bicycle by themselves after it fails.

As for the problem of technology leakage, of course, it doesn't matter, after all, bicycles are just some things, normal people can master them as long as they learn casually for a period of time, there is no problem of leaking technology at all, anyway, all kinds of parts of bicycles, only the Tang Empire can manufacture, these small countries can't make them, that's enough, even if they learn to repair bicycles, they also need to go to Datang to buy materials and equipment for maintenance.

After the gradual popularization of bicycles, the atmosphere of Chang'an City has also undergone great changes, the horses that used to come and go have become a lot less, but the bicycles are more and more, the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, full of people riding bicycles, many people in aristocratic mansions, all like to go out to buy things by bicycle, as long as there are not a lot of things.

That is to say, at this time, cycling has become a fashion for the people of Chang'an City, just like driving a car in later generations, it is a means of display, and with the popularity of bicycles, Datang has produced new sports competitions.

To put it simply, that is, bicycle racing, before the emergence of bicycles, the aristocratic sons of the Tang Dynasty liked to ride horses to see whose horse ran the farthest and fastest, but the difference in horses is not compensated by manpower, the so-called superb riding skills, must be matched with the best horses, if the horses are inferior, no matter how good the riding skills can not achieve the final victory.

The bicycle race is different, all the bicycles, as long as they are of the same model, all are in accordance with the same specifications of the assembly line operation, that is, their performance is exactly the same, so who can win the final race depends on the level of cycling, and this is very fair to all those involved in this competition.

Chang'an City is a large area, and the circle around Chang'an City is a newly paved concrete pavement, which is perfect for holding a bicycle race on it.
