Chapter 57: Bicycles
Countdown to the festival, three days.
The Yutang Dynasty, like the feudal dynasty, sacrifices were the highest standard of prosperity in the country, and everything needed to stand aside when encountering sacrifices.
The triennial festival will be held in three days, and the princes and nobles of the entire Chang'an City are busy with this matter, especially some broken households, who want to find relationships everywhere and keep their titles.
"Isn't this a pit man? If you have to walk ninety-nine miles, you can't take a car, you have to bring sacrifices, and you don't know how much you have to die of exhaustion on the way! ”
Yu Zhiqian looked at the process of the festival sent by the Ministry of Rites, and almost didn't jump up and fight with the officials of the Ministry of Rites, what is this special thing, and let people live?
Ninety-nine miles, that is, ninety-nine thousand kilometers, the whole journey on foot, if it's just like this, it's okay, you have to bring sacrifices, even if Yu Zhiqian is the prince, you have to pick it up personally, the only one in the country who can not bring sacrifices, don't have to walk, is his cheap dad!
"Your Highness, the great sacrifice rites have been handed down from the Zhou Dynasty, and they are not allowed to be sacrificed unless they are in the world of great governance!" Zhang Zhan was much more excited, as the chief of the East Palace, he had the opportunity to participate in the big sacrifice, which was a great honor for an official of his rank!
"The ancestors don't have to toss people so much, the three grades and above have to participate, and they are not afraid that someone will die of exhaustion on the road, you look at Di Xiang, they are all so old, if they hang up, it will be the loss of my Datang!"
Yu Zhiqian complained while preparing the sacrifice, no way, he didn't dare to mess around with this thing, any errand during the big festival, anyone would be punished, if it rained during the big festival, the emperor would have to make a crime.
"Your Highness, that's glory, Zhuge Liang, the former prime minister of the left dynasty, died of illness on the way to the big sacrifice......"
Yes, this time, Zhuge Villager does not have to go out of Qishan six times in his life, and he will not leave the necessary texts for middle school students, but he is still dying of overwork, and his whole life is a tragedy!
Yu Zhiqian was still sighing before, talents are rare, what kind of talents such as Sun Shuao, Guan Zhong, Le Yi, Xiao He, Zhang Tang and so on Yu Zhiqian want to send someone to find it, but what's the use of finding it? Who knows what kind of virtue this thing is? (I would never copy a book review)
Lu Bu is estimated to be one of the top three fierce generals in ancient China, did he encounter it, but what was the result? This thing doesn't learn martial arts, learns literature, except for a sister named Minchan, nothing else, and now he is lying on the side to copy some rules for the landlord.
As for Shen Wansan, didn't there be a cornucopia of this product in history? In Yu Zhiqian's eyes, this product is a big colander, not only will it not accumulate wealth, but it will lose money every day.
Zhang Zhan, this product is also a famous minister in history, the Guanglu doctor of the Great Demon Master, the prince and the prince, what is the result? It's just a toothpaste, except for the stubborn love of riding a white horse, you can't see anything in history.
As for Heshen, he is as greedy as in history.
He Shen did participate in the fraud in the imperial examination, and after being copied at home, He Shen confessed, and it is not clear how much Yu Zhiqian was implicated, but many officials in the ministry were arrested, and there has been a lot of noise in the DPRK and China recently.
But when Yu Zhiqian followed Jinyiwei to Heshen's house to raid the house, he didn't gain anything at first, but when Yu Zhiqian uncovered Heshen's bed and removed the bed board, Yu Zhiqian could basically confirm that this Heshen was Yu Tang's Zhao Dehan, and the bed was covered with gold bricks.
In addition, the inner courtyard of Heshen's house is actually made of brass, and there are some things watered with silver, as for the Lingnan rich businessman, he was also raided, and his identity is a bit interesting.
When he was fine, He Shen would secretly go to the mansion to live for two days, and other than that, he didn't move, in He Shen's words, he was greedy for money, except for a part of the relationship, he didn't spend a penny, just just like it.
Yu Zhiqian regretted a little that he didn't take someone to raid the house, but let Jinyiwei raid the house, although He Shen was not like later generations, the amount of embezzlement caught up with a country's taxes for several years, but the amount was not low, but it was all in the underwear, and it had nothing to do with his own half a dime.
It can't be said that there is no, Yu Zhiqian's calligraphy and painting were found, eight thousand taels were picked up for nothing, and Wang Xizhi's authentic handiwork was obtained, all of which Yu Zhiqian secretly hidden, as for Jing Ke, he didn't know if he saw it or not!
The celebrities that Yu Zhiqian is familiar with in history have changed greatly, Yu Zhiqian is really afraid that after finding it, he will gather twelve people to eat white rice, and there are enough people to eat white rice in the East Palace, thinking of this, Yu Zhiqian kicked Lu Bu again, this product is really useless!
As for Xu Zhu, what are Xue Rengui's group of people looking for? When a rice bucket? He did not lead his troops into battle.
The bike is almost already designed, made of wood racks, there is no way, it is made of iron, it is too heavy, plus gears and chains and other things are too rudimentary, if you want to ride, it is almost impossible.
The wooden car is a little lighter, Yu Zhiqian stared at the wooden bicycle in front of him, the handlebar and everything have the appearance of a bicycle in later generations, there is no brake, no, it should be said that the brake is on the foot.
The wheels are made of smaller carriage wheels, I have to say that the technical level of the ancient craftsmen is really very high, the whole car except for the gears and chains are fixed together, the gears are tied to the iron sheet, connected to the rear wheels, and it looks like that.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
"Bikes?"
"What is a bicycle?"
A group of people stood together and looked at Yu Zhiqian's bicycle, they didn't know what this thing was for, Lu Bu also looked at it with a ghostly look, these days he is not only copying mahjong rules is fighting the landlord's rules, not playing mahjong, he talks mahjong with others, and the head is the Tao, as if he is a master, in fact, this thing has not even touched mahjong.
Yu Zhiqian glanced at the people around him who were like dirt buns, and knew that his time for pretending to be forced had come: "Let me go, let me let me, I'll go outside and test it for you, you will know what a bicycle is!" ”
While talking, Yu Zhiqian pushed the bicycle and walked outside, at this time, at this time, Lao Qi took Zhou Yu and a few people to the gate of the prince's mansion, and immediately greeted Yu Zhiqian: "Big brother, who are you?" ”
"New research comes out of new toys, this thing will change the way Datang travels, Lao Qi, what are you going to do?"
"Didn't the eldest brother send someone to send some bananas a few days ago, but not recently Dengzhou sent some special products, and sent them to the eldest brother to taste!"
After finishing speaking, several guards carried some seafood, and Yu Zhiqian's eyes lit up after seeing it, and he seemed to have not eaten seafood for a long time.
"Just in time to witness this historic moment!" After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he put the vehicle in the middle of the road and prepared to ride.
At this time, the second prince not far away with people happened to pass by, saw a group of people watching, and immediately stopped.
"Over there, the East Palace?"
"Yes, Your Highness, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is doing?"
"What are you doing with Big Brother?"
Holding a box in the old second-hand, he studied for a long time and researched a new toy, ready to present it to his father, but when he saw Yu Zhiqian doing moths again, he immediately stopped.
During this time, the second child has been learning from the boss, such as holding a buffet in a restaurant, just to hear his father's praise, but as a result, his father seems to have forgotten about it.
As for the playthings, it was also because he knew that his father liked the mahjong invented by his eldest brother, and he also worked hard to get it out.
"Your Highness, aren't you entering the palace?"
"Wait a minute, see what the prince is doing?"
After finishing speaking, Yu Tai slowly walked towards Yu Zhiqian, only to see Yu Zhiqian pushing a strange thing, and there was a group of people behind him constantly watching, this thing looked strange, two wheels in front and back, and something similar to two horns.
I saw Yu Zhiqian push this strange thing forward for a few steps, and then Yu Zhiqian's whole person took a step and sat on this strange thing, and a magical scene happened.
I saw Yu Zhiqian's feet stepping on the protruding things on both sides, and then the vehicle actually began to move forward.
The front of the car is a little heavy, the front wheels of the bicycle are a little heavy, and Yu Zhiqian is a little uncomfortable to handle, but on the whole, it is a success, and the vehicle can be ridden, but it is a little more laborious.
The chain of this car is iron, not a chain, when Yu Zhiqian rides, the force consumed is much more laborious than the modern self-proclaimed car, but it is already a rare breakthrough to be able to ride, at least it can be said to be a big toy.
"How is that possible?"
Yu Tai stared at Yu Zhiqian riding a bicycle towards him, his mouth opened wide in surprise, he felt like a ghost, this car would actually move by itself, there was nothing to pull, Yu Zhiqian just sat on it, the vehicle actually moved, could it be that there was a god pushing him away? Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really destined for heaven!
"Yo second child, why do you have time to come to me today!"
Yu Zhiqian parked the car next to Yu Tai, and looked at his second brother with some curiosity, this thing has been a lot quieter recently.
"Big brother!"
After finishing speaking, he stared at Yu Zhiqian's bicycle curiously: "Big brother, what is this?" Why can I do it myself? ”
"Bike, what, want to ride?"
Yu Tai nodded immediately, although Yu Tai wanted the position of the crown prince, but he was only a young man in his early twenties, full of curiosity about new things, and when he heard Yu Zhiqian's inquiry, he wanted to nod, but he couldn't save face, after all, he and the boss were in competition.
"Come on, give it a try!"
After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian put the car on the second-hand side.
Yu Tai swore that he just wanted to figure out why these things moved on their own, so he took the car.
"The two of you come over and hold the back of the car, the second child, you get in the car, step on this, and the car can move on its own!"
Yu Zhiqian taught him hand in hand, but Yu Tai pedaled for a long time, and his car didn't move at all.
"You two, be a little lighter, don't push so hard, you work so hard, how can the car go forward! Loosen a little! ”
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!"
The two guards loosened up a little, and the vehicle began to move.
"Hold the handlebar, yes, step on it slowly, forward, forward, you two don't have to work so hard!"
When the vehicle started slowly, Yu Tai's original nervous mood also began to relax, it was too powerful, this was too powerful, as long as he stepped on it, the vehicle could move forward by itself.
"You two let go, I'll do it myself!"
After Yu Tai rode for a while, he immediately wanted to come by himself, but was stopped by Yu Zhiqian: "Second brother, you are not familiar with the car, if they let go, you will fall!" ”
"Big brother, it's okay, I want to give it a try!"
"Second brother, listen to my brother's advice, it's not good to fall, big brother, when did I lie to you!"
“……”
In the end, Yu Zhiqian still compromised and slowly got out of the way, and the two guards of the second child also let go of their hands.
"Bang!"
In less than five seconds, the two bikes fell directly to the ground.
"Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!"
Several guards were so frightened that they immediately ran over, helped the car up, and kept checking to confirm that there was no problem with the second child, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness!"
The guard stood aside in a little panic, the second child waved his hand, stood up from the ground, stared at the bicycle, and then looked at Yu Zhiqian: "Big brother, why is there no problem with you riding this car, why do I fall while riding?" ”
"You need to practice more on this, practice makes perfect!" After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he lifted the bicycle, and after making sure that there was no problem, he looked at the second child: "Look, I ride it well, without him, cooked!" ”
At this time, Lao Qi ran over out of breath, and when he saw Yu Zhiqian, he immediately shouted: "Big brother, big brother, play with me for a while, play for me for a while!" ”
At this time, the seventh child noticed the second brother, and frowned, he didn't like the second brother very much, but the eldest brother was there, so he could only call respectfully: "Second brother!" ”
"Hmm!"
Yu Zhiqian slapped the second child on the back of the head: "Uh-huh, my brother, he is still so rusty, the seventh one wants to ride, I will support him and let him ride!" ”
"Ahh
Originally, Lao Qi still wanted to get angry, but he endured it, as if his father liked a family and harmony, so he smiled: "Lao Qi, you want to ride, come and sit up, the second brother is holding you, don't fall!" ”
"Okay, thank you, eldest brother, second brother!"
Lao Qi is younger, and he is more interested in new things, and after someone helps him, he can't wait to ride up.
"Old Seven, keep your balance, don't move, yes, that's it, take your time, okay, good!"
I don't know if the seventh child is talented or what's going on, but this thing can be ridden away by himself in three minutes, Yu Zhiqian didn't feel anything, the child has a strong ability to accept it, but the second child has a frustrated face, he doesn't even seem to be able to compare with the seventh, what do you compare with the prince?
"Big brother, why is this car moving forward on its own?"
Lao Qi asked curiously while riding crookedly.
"Well, it's because when you step on the car, you exert a force on the car, and this force ......"
Yu Zhiqian kept explaining to the seventh child, but he didn't notice that the eyes of the second child next to him gradually brightened, as if he had discovered the door of a new world, it turned out that there were so many magical things in the world, and what power and friction the prince said? And a car that can run without being stepped on and boiled water? What are those? Why would my eldest brother know?
The second child now feels that there are a hundred cats scratching in his heart, and his heart is itching fiercely.
