Huo Yi was thinking about a move, thinking about where to find a robbery material to deal with his son's attack, but Huo Zhong interrupted his train of thought, and said very unhappily: "What's the matter?" ”

Huo Zhong said: "Master, the kind of four-wheeled carriage that His Royal Highness King Liang rode yesterday will be sold publicly in three days, and it is written that merchants can also buy it!" ”

Without waiting for Huo Yi to answer, his son Huo Qiang had already picked up the conversation and said, "Reliable news? ”

Huo Zhong said: "It's true, the Ministry of Industry has posted a notice with a big red seal on it!" ”

Huo Qiang said to Huo Yi: "Father, we must buy a few of him." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Huo Yi put down the chess pieces in his hand and said, "Okay, three days later, let's go and have a look." ”

The sale of four-wheeled carriages by the Ministry of Industry aroused great interest among the wealthy merchants in Chang'an City.

The Tang Dynasty has a strict hierarchy, and the differences between officials, officials and people, and between farmers and industrialists are obvious.

Take clothing, for example. The official uniforms of Tang Dynasty officials were mainly distinguished by color. The clothing colors of the hundred officials in the Tang Dynasty mainly include purple, crimson, green, and Qing. During the Zhenguan period of Tang Taizong, it was decreed: the clothes of a hundred officials, the three grades of purple, the fourth grade of scarlet, the fifth grade of light crimson, the sixth grade of dark green, the seventh grade of light green, the eighth grade of dark green, and the ninth grade of light green.

There are also differences in the texture, pattern, and pattern of official robes. Officials above the seventh grade can wear patterned silk. The patterns of official robes and uniforms above the fifth grade include carvings, falcons, fish, geese, flowers and plants.

Merchants had the lowest status, and their children were not even qualified to take the imperial examinations, so they had to do business for generations. The clothes he wore and the carriage he rode in were all gray and black. It's useless to have money, the standard brocade night walk.

Merchants had a strong desire to improve their status. The advent of the four-wheeled carriage gave them an opportunity to show off their wealth and also an opportunity to improve their status. Therefore, the announcement of the Ministry of Industry has attracted the attention of almost all wealthy businessmen.

On the morning of April 18, the square outside the south gate of the palace.

"Dong Dong Qiang", the square is very lively, take Song Dandan's words: "Colorful flags, gongs and drums are noisy, crowds of people, that scene, old and lively!" ”

At the south entrance of the palace, there are more than a dozen four-wheeled carriages of various kinds, including coaches and wagons, which also have different styles and decorations.

The most eye-catching thing is that next to each carriage stands a beautiful woman with flowers. Someone recognized it, they were all well-known Chun Er children in the workshop, and the Xia sisters were also among them.

Most of the onlookers were low-level officials and ordinary people, and they had only heard of these beauties, and when they saw the real people this time, they were all very curious and feasted their eyes.

These beauties are Tang car models made by Li Su.

These car models have made Li Su a lot of effort, not only because they cost a lot of money, but also because it is very difficult to train.

They are not models, they haven't seen how the car models are displayed, they don't know how to poss, and Li Su can't do it, he looked through a lot of pictures on Baidu, and finally summed up a few actions, and then taught these beauties.

The beauties all have a foundation in acting, and they are all dancers, and these movements are quickly mastered by them.

The most difficult thing is to let these beauties master the relevant data of the carriage, and these data, for these beauties, are as obscure as a book from heaven.

So, the Ministry of Industry found a group of craftsmen to teach these fairies one-on-one, but the craftsmen were so beautiful that they never dreamed that they would have the opportunity to get close to these fairies. This encounter has become the capital they can boast about for a lifetime!

Huang Fu Rui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry under him also deliberately replaced their latest official mansion today, and they all held their heads high and were very vigorous.

Huang Furui looked around and found that more than half of the nobles of the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an had come.

The crown prince Li Chengqian naturally also came to support the Ministry of Industry, and his uncle Changsun Wuji also came. Li Ke, the king of Shu, and Li Tai, the king of Wei, did not appear, and there were many of their men mixed in the crowd to see if there was anything wrong with the prince who could hit the prince.

Li Su did not appear, he also hid in the distance to observe the movement.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Huang Fu Rui stood on a temporary high platform, held an iron horn, and began to speak.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, ladies and gentlemen, people, hello everyone. In order to improve everyone's means of transportation and freight conditions, the Datang Ministry of Industry and the Datang Science Research Institute jointly launched a new type of carriage, please visit and appreciate, interested in purchasing, please order from the Ministry of Industry.

Now, please take a visit. ”

The first to visit were the crown prince Li Chengqian and the eldest grandson Wuji, followed by the magnates arranged according to the rank of official lords, and so on.

When they arrived at the front of the carriage, the beautiful model car introduced them to the relevant information of the carriage, and then invited the visitors to go up and experience it.

Su Guo Gong Cheng Biting Jin and E Guo Zhongwu Gong Chi Gong came together, and when it was their turn, the car model came up to introduce them to the information.

Cheng Yanjin waved his hand and said, "No need, my son has already introduced me, I can just see it myself." ”

The car model stepped forward and opened the car door, and Cheng Yanjin sat down. Sitting in the comfortable leather seats, looking at the wide field of vision ahead, I felt that the kind of carriage I used to sit in was simply a sin. He grinned and said, "Come on, Da Lao Hei (Wei Chigong), you can also come up and try it." ”

Wei Chigong got into the carriage and felt very good, he said, "Lao Cheng, good things, I want to buy two of them." ”

Li Jing, the god of the Tang Dynasty, was not interested in those luxurious passenger cars, he came to the freight carriage, listened to the introduction of the car model in detail, and said to Hou Junji, the general of the right guard: "The carrying capacity of this kind of carriage is more than three times that of the two-wheeled carriage, and it is really convenient to transport ordnance and military rations, so let the military department order more." ”

After the nobles had finished visiting, it was the turn of the ordinary officials and the common people. Among them, many people can't afford to buy them, and they don't plan to buy them, they just want to get close to those beautiful car models, see those beautiful faces, and smell the fragrance on their bodies.

Finally, it was the turn of Huo Yi, the largest grain merchant in Chang'an City, and they liked these luxurious carriages very much and were also interested in them. When they heard from the model car that the carriage they bought was not limited by the rank because it was not a horse-drawn carriage of the imperial court standard, they immediately decided to order 10 passenger cars and 50 wagons.

After a morning, the Ministry of Industry has received orders for 178 buses and 432 trucks, not including the trucks ordered by the Ministry of War!

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Huang Fu Rui decided to open the auto show for three days in a row. The auto show continues.

Wei Wangfu.

After listening to the report of his subordinates on the auto show, Li Tai said to his friends: "This matter was made by the prince, what do you all think?" ”
