The influence of the Dinghai Navy on Bianliang may not be able to affect the entire Bianliang, but Zhao Xin rode in a four-wheeled carriage.

In ancient China, there has never been a four-wheeled carriage, only a two-wheeled carriage, the reason is that the traction and steering device, compared with the two-wheeled, four-wheeled is more massive, although his cargo capacity is very high, but a steering ability, it restricts his popularity.

Perhaps in feudal society, and even in some places in the Western Regions, four-wheeled carriages have been unearthed, but in the real mainstream history, four-wheeled carriages have never appeared.

But in terms of technology, as long as the point is broken, there is no problem, a suitable traction and conversion wheel, these in later generations, or even just some settings on the toy car, the use of a separate traction, can make the carriage turn smoothly, convenient and fast.

After solving such a huge problem of steering, the advantages of the four-wheeled carriage were revealed, and the four-wheeled carriage had less pressure on the horse than the two-wheeled carriage.

In the two-wheeled carriage, the horse is mainly traction, but the whole carriage is still pressed on the horse, and the two wheels cannot stand on the ground smoothly, so the horse must be supported by three points.

In this way, it is almost certain that the horse has to bear a certain amount of support, and this support, no matter how small, is a burden on the horse.

The four-wheeled wheel is different, three points become a surface, four points are more balanced, even if the horse is put aside, the simple four-wheeled carriage itself, can also stand smoothly on the ground, to ensure the balance, then the horse only plays a role in traction, which to a certain extent, increases the role of the horse.

The four wheels carry the entire weight, so that the average pressure is reduced to a minimum, and the cargo capacity will be increased, and the requirements for the terrain may be high, but under the premise that everything is in place, his speed will also increase.

What is Bianliang, the capital of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, the location of all the central institutions and the imperial palace, a wide imperial road, almost the symbol of the entire imperial city, not to mention, everything is good now.

The road conditions themselves are very good in Bianliang, and under the premise of such an epoch-making weapon as cement, it is quite stable, and four-wheeled carriages are also popular, starting from the daimyo's mansion to now, Bianliang has more than 800 four-wheeled carriages, almost all over the entire family of the powerful.

Through the curtains, Zhao Xin took everything in Bianliang into his eyes, maybe he grew up in the palace since he was a child, but the impression of the palace on him has been blurred, and even Bianliang is even more so, in Zhao Xin's heart, it is more of a description of Zhang Zeduan's Qingming Riverside picture.

At a time when images, videos, and even cross paintings were already everywhere, as a person engaged in history, especially the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Qingming Shanghe Picture will always be an existence that cannot be bypassed.

The Qingming Riverside Map is a 12th century Bianliang scene, that era, the Northern Song Dynasty has been troubled internally and externally, has produced a tired situation, even if the Qingming Riverside Map is very magnificent, but among them, there are many rare market scenes.

Now, it is different, the Renzong Dynasty was the most powerful and wealthy era in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, especially the crossing of Zhao Xin, which completely changed the pattern of the Northern Song Dynasty.

In Western Xia, Han Qi not only got another such one, a very important city in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, occupying a considerable part of the territory of the Hetao Plain, but also successfully used the help of explosives to pry open the gate of Xingqing Mansion, and with the help of the Liao State, destroyed Western Xia.

The demise of a henchman is not only substantive, but also good for the Northern Song Dynasty, and the same is true for the people.

Perhaps, in the eyes of high-level officials, Western Xia was destroyed by the Liao State, and even in the market, there are rumors, but after all, Xingqing Mansion was captured by Han Qi, at least the city was broken, in this case, of course, the credit must be recorded.

If it is only political, this does not show the changes in Bianliang, the changes brought by the Dinghai Navy are, the carriage is just a means of transportation, and there are other changes in all aspects, especially when Zhao Xin passes by a construction site under construction, especially when Zhao Xin passes by a construction site under construction.

He knew that this construction site was a new shop in the core area of Fan Lou.

Fan Lou, as the first floor of the Northern Song Dynasty, can be said to be a landmark of catering in the Northern Song Dynasty, in the era of ordinary small shops, thirty or fifty wen a dish, among Fan Lou, even if it is the simplest cold dish, his price is also above the consistent, the average cost of dozens of runs, hundreds of runs, abound.

Fan Lou is a composite building composed of five buildings, the floors are not high, in the appearance of three or four floors, at most about 10 meters, and it is mostly wooden structure, such a building, it is already a landmark building of the Northern Song Dynasty.

After the advent of cement, Fan Lou relied on the relationship between the upper floors and the Privy Council, and realized the benefits of this material for the first time, a defensive building more than 20 meters high, which can withstand thousands of troops, if applied to Fan Lou, what will it be.

I thought that once cement and this method of construction, when the Northern Song Dynasty was popular, the surroundings of Fan Lou would all be such buildings, and at that time, Fan Lou would not be a landmark, and the surroundings would be taller than him, and he was really a short man.

Wealth and status, and even the sense of touch that stretched out to all sides, made Fan Lou move, and they quickly contacted Dingjun and asked for a new Fan Lou.

This Fan building is very tall, reaching 8 floors, this is the highest floor of the building without elevators, really if it is about eighty or ninety floors, the height is high, but it is tiring to walk, isn't it?

It's okay for you to let the wealthy and powerful go up to the third or fourth floor, climb high and look far away, but it's not a thing to really go up to the eighth or ninth floor, and you will be out of breath after eating.

However, the height of the Fan Tower is larger, each floor is about 4.5 meters, that is, the highest point, almost more than 35 meters, which is higher than the fortress, once the construction is completed, it must be a landmark building.

In order to build houses, Dingjun Navy marched hundreds of thousands of houses in just one year, basically allowing Dingjun, all the people, to live and work in peace and contentment, no one thought that this would be a business.

Reinforced concrete houses may not be the unique skills of the Dinghai Navy now, after all, in order to build a fortress for the Northern Song Dynasty, some basic construction methods are still taught.

However, this kind of fortress can also be built according to this, and it is impossible to achieve a certain sense of beauty, but under the guidance of Zhao Xin, under different practices, Dinghai has accumulated enough experience.

When Fan Lou's request was sent, Ding Haijun only hesitated a little and decided to take this order, of course, the price is also a key point.

The cost of a fortress is 2,400 guan, and the cost of Fan Lou is as high as 15,000 guan, which shows the wealth of Fan Lou, and the requirements of Fan Lou are not high, as long as it is high enough, and then it is more beautiful than the previous Fan Lou.

What kind of requirement is this, a 36-meter-plus, plus a variety of decorations, worthy of the existence of a landmark building, just so simple to appear in the catalog, of course, because Fanlou is a catering, mainly catering, including the following three floors of large podium, an area of up to 6000 square meters of huge buildings, as well as the upper floor of this high-rise building.

This plan immediately attracted Fan Lou's attention, and after accounting, the price continued to rise, reaching 25,000 yuan, but Fan Lou did not hesitate to put the first batch of 5 percent of the funds in.

This has also become the first project of the newly established Dinghai Real Estate Company, and the profit is conservatively estimated to be as high as 7%.

Zhao Xin on this project, can be regarded as a heard, real estate in the later generations is the most profitable industry, in this era is even more so, he has no research in this area, compared to the practice of the Navy professionals, but he mentioned a problem, that is, an important problem of high-rise buildings, that is, how to climb conveniently.

In the past, there was not enough height in the restaurant, but in the two- or three-story restaurant, the second floor must be better than the first floor, and the three-story one is definitely better than the second floor.

This point, in the ordinary restaurant below three floors, is very normal, but more than three floors, Fan Lou is compared, with a floor height of 4.5 meters, a total height of more than 36 meters of buildings, if according to the height of the evaluation, then the highest eight floors, must be the highest-end.

Can not be so evaluated, eight floors are equivalent to more than 32 meters climbing, which is not small for the aristocracy, this is not small is also a burden, in the electricity is not popularized, the elevator is not developed under the premise, how to apply well has become the key.

For this, Zhao Xin proposed a method, that is, similar to the elevator design method.

The elevator is just an electric drive, a way to make the elevator room rise and fall, this kinetic energy is electrically driven, and there is a certain degree of automation.

At present, it is difficult to achieve electricity for the Dinghai Navy, although it is making technical reserves, it has not gone deeper, and there is no research and development of even steam engines, let alone electricity.

However, it is not that there is no solution, and Zhao Xin's reference plan is some of the plans in the countryside.

In the era when there is no electricity, if you want to build a house, all you need is a pulley block and a rope, and you can use manpower to send buckets of cement and bags of bricks from below to the top.

Referring to the tower crane and pulley group, Zhao Xin combined some things, and on the premise of compensating for an extra 300 kg of weight, he could quickly go up and down.

300 kilograms, not to mention the elevator room, it is the easiest to build, about 100 kilograms, then, you can take 200 kilograms of people, in this way, two fat people, three or four thin people, you can go up and down.

Perhaps, this earthen elevator that uses animal power has such and such problems, and even people need to shout, but for those VIPs, they don't have to go by themselves, maybe a tea time, they can go from the bottom to a height of more than 30 meters, enjoy the feeling of being high, and don't have to work themselves, what a comfortable choice.

Of course, there are also stairs, if you are really interested, if you want to take the stairs, Fan Lou will not refuse.

Although Fan Lou handed over this construction project to Ding Haijun, it was in the wooing of the Ding Navy, and it was also an investment in Zhao Xin, Fan Lou was able to stand tall in the Northern Song Dynasty for a hundred years, that is not a rich person who can do it, there are still some powerful people behind him, they may not tell the operator of Fan Lou, Zhao Xin's true identity, but they will point it out clearly, and will not let them offend him.

This is only a preliminary foundation, but after that, the finishing touch of this elevator impressed the operator.

To put it bluntly, to be able to operate Fan Lou as the first floor of Kaifeng, that is not a right to solve, dishes, chefs, service quality, brand, these are very important.

A simple lifting device solves all the problems of the magnates and entering the higher floors, climbing high and looking far away, and there is no need to lift the step, which simply analyzes the minds of the magnates to the extreme, which is the reason why Fan Lou is willing to pay money.

Fan Lou is a big restaurant, his construction, different from the simple house of the Ding Navy, also different from the fortress, in the new building, not in Bianliang large-scale appearance, Fan Lou is still the first floor of Kaifeng, there is no need to be so anxious, slow work out of fine work.

In fact, the construction of Fan Lou has been going on for more than 4 months, because of the careful relationship, coupled with the high floors, it is basically compared to the 11th and 12th floors of the Navy, which is also a huge challenge for the construction team.

Fortunately, the main project has completed 5 floors, at most there is still half a year, plus decoration, at least one year, it can be completed, and at that time, a real luxury hotel is about to appear in Bianliang.

Even this time Zhao Xin's arrival, which also has a discussion on the follow-up changes of Fan Lou, which is mainly on the glass, the most suitable for the construction of glass, that is, the glass window, when beautiful, a variety of different colors of glass windows, under the illumination of the light, show different colors, this is a big hotel, it will be psychedelic.

Zhao Xin is not worried that Fan Lou will not agree, since Fan Lou will find the Dinghai Navy and build the first floor of Bianliang in the real sense, then he will definitely not refuse this beautiful glass, what he is worried about is the price.

The construction cost of 25,000 yuan, for Fan Lou, I am afraid it is not taken out casually, glass, in Dinghai, may be able to be used by ordinary families, but in Bianliang, it is definitely a luxury, this point he carries a large number of glass mirrors, he is ready to use the auction method, in Bianliang to sell at a high price, glass windows may not be as good as glass mirrors, can not be too cheap.

According to Zhao Xin's calculations, take an ordinary glass window of 500 guan to calculate, the entire Fan Lou, a total of 500 windows, this is not a simple number, this is almost 250,000 guan, this is a huge pressure for Fan Lou, it is not easy to judge whether it will succeed or not.

The carriage quickly bypassed Fan Lou and headed towards the inner city, Zhao Xin's destination was of course not the Miao family, the Miao family was definitely going to go, but the place where he was going to settle down was the Dinghai Houfu that was given a year ago.
