Chapter 154: Making a Splash

In fact, he was already ecstatic in his heart, and he wanted to sign a contract with this Boss Wang immediately, but he couldn't figure it out, Wang Dali already knew all the principles of this car, why not do it alone, but find his own partnership. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lord Li, we don't talk darkly, Lord Li is in Rongde County, and even in the whole of Sichuan, I'm afraid I can't find a carpenter with a craft like me, so let's do it, all the materials and labor are all contracted by me, and Lord Li is only responsible for the funds. As for the share, excluding workers' wages, materials, and other costs, how about 70% of the remaining profits? ”

"Young Master", Xue'er suddenly interjected: "In this case, it is better to cooperate with Master Wang, I think Master Wang's skills are very good, he does the work carefully, and there are five or six apprentices, although you only drew the simplest bicycle sample this time, but Master Wang has done so well, if you take out that batch of better samples, it will definitely be much better than the current one." ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Li will think about it again", Wang Dali heard Xue'er's words, and immediately smiled, the reason why he asked Li Xiang to cooperate was that he was worried that Li Xiang had a better design and had not come up with it, in case he started to make it himself, Li Xiang found another company to cooperate, and used a more advanced design, wouldn't he lose a great opportunity in vain?

Li Xiang pretended to think deeply, and Wang Dali waited uneasily, but he didn't dare to urge too much.

After a while, Li Xiang said: "It's okay, Master Wang's skills are outstanding, so let's cooperate with Master Wang, what do you think, Yu'er?" ”

Wang Dali was looking at Li Xiang at this time, and when Yu'er heard this, she made a grimace at Li Xiang, but said, "Okay." ”

Li Xiang put forward several ideas of his own: "First, in order to speed up the manufacturing, more manpower is needed, and each part must be drawn with specifications, each carpenter is only responsible for a part of the parts production, and the final installation needs to be checked by Master Wang." ”

The flow of operations, as well as the benefits of the standardization of the production process, Li Xiang knows. "Second, first according to the current style of production of a batch, to see the market reaction, and then in the process there will be buyers to reflect a variety of problems, we can collect these problems, the improvement of the improvement, the increase of the increase, after a period of time, which parts are easy to damage, which parts are too conservative in the design and waste of materials, increase the weight of the car, all have a number in mind, so that the next batch of products will be more stable after the quality is more stable."

Wang Dali was stunned to hear it, and it was really a master, and the words he said were different, and this opinion was much better than that of ordinary people such as me, and he hurriedly said: "Master Li is high-minded!" ”

The two exchanged words for a while, set the blueprint for the exhibition, and the first bicycle factory in Da Song was officially established!

Cher sat on the front girder of her bicycle, her wheels driving through the potholed path, her cushion aching, but her face was like a flower.

Li Xiang is pedaling the bike, he feels that the bike is heavier than he imagined, and now he feels that the cornering is also extremely laborious, and even the front of the car has a tendency to tilt to one side, and a shock absorption device should be designed under the saddle, but fortunately, the shock absorption of the wooden wheels is better than that of the steel rims of later generations.

The girder of the car is also designed to be shorter, and when Cher sits forward, she has no space, and her legs are separated from each other, like a duck, with two legs down.

"Yes, Cher, thanks to your quick response, otherwise this cooperation would have taken some time."

Behind Li Xiang, followed by a group of sons and daughters riding horses, the car was not riding fast, but these sons just refused to go over, and followed behind the bicycles, staring directly at the strange things on the two wheels in front of them.

"Xue'er, did you say that they didn't want to go after you because they saw how beautiful you looked?" Li Xiang chuckled softly in Xue'er's ear, but thought in his heart, "Failed, I forgot to design the rear chair frame." ”

Soon, there was such a hot news in Rongde County: a man and a woman were sitting in a car that could walk on their own, and what was even stranger was that the car had only two wheels. When Wang Dali heard the news, his heart blossomed, isn't this a free advertisement? While he was happy, he accelerated the construction of the first bikes.

The novelty of the bicycle caused a sensation at the time, and it also exceeded Li Xiang's expectations. In fact, in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi's foreign teacher gave him a bicycle. In the available historical materials, not only Pu Yi likes to ride, but even his queen concubine, as well as his younger siblings also like to ride. In order to ride a bicycle, Pu Yi cut the threshold of his house.

In the Qing Dynasty, which was closed off from the country at that time, its feudalism was as high as that of the Song Dynasty. Something that can be recognized by the royal family, let alone the rich children of the Song Dynasty? As a result, today's bikes are almost equal to the Ferraris of later generations, and while not necessarily comfortable, they are somewhat new. However, in the current Song Dynasty, although the rich and noble families are wearing long clothes, some younger people roll up their long clothes, and they don't feel indecent when riding like this, but some old people point fingers at it, which is obviously very unacceptable.

In this way, Li Xiang began to conduct test rides and test drives in the downtown area, but he still maintained going to Wang Dali's workshop every afternoon to check the progress of the bicycle.

In fact, when the bicycle first appeared, it was also made of wood, but the structure was not as complex as Li Xiang's design. Bicycles at the time did not have a transmission chain, but only pedals were directly installed on the front or rear wheels to drive, so in order to ride more comfortably, the bicycles at that time were all very large wheels, which can also be seen in movies.

Since Li Xiang already knew about these defects, his first thought was to inform Wang Dali immediately.

After Wang Dali knew Li Xiang's intention, he smiled and said: "Lord Li, in fact, I also have these problems, so the current production is some other parts, and I am preparing to discuss this matter with my lord in the past few days." ”

Wang Dali hurriedly let Li Xiang into the house, someone had already prepared tea, Li Xiang took a sip of tea, and said: "Actually, there are still a lot to improve this time, after all, this first batch of cars has not been manufactured, so there is no loss in the change, after the last car has been tested for a few days, I have some problems." ”

Li Xiang continued: "We can consider making some optional accessories. For example, if you install a bell on your car, you can be notified of the traffic ahead when the bell rings when there is a pedestrian in front of you. Also, you can design a shopping basket to put in front of the handlebar and place some items on the side. In addition, a sturdy bracket can be designed on top of the rear wheel to facilitate hauling of goods. ”

Wang Dali heard him say this, and was even more surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth, daring to love this bicycle can not only sit people, but also as a means of transportation, he has been thinking about this bicycle every day these days, why didn't he think of such an improvement? He couldn't help but rejoice again and again in his heart, he really had the eyes of God to let himself cooperate with this genius magistrate. (To be continued.) )
