Five-nine, big three rounds

Zhuangzi was building a lot of construction on one side, but on the other side, it was already empty.

In front of the seven or eight earthen houses, a huge shed was built with wooden shelves, and in the shed was a long table made of more than a dozen docked tables.

Because Zhou Tong had to look around, when they arrived, Ding Jiu and the others had already arrived.

Zhou Tong noticed that Sun Cheng and Wang Qinian were assigning Ding Jiu and others to the long table, each occupying about two zhang of space.

The six of them are in their own place, and there is some inexplicability.

Zhou Quan confessed his guilt to Zhou Tong, and then ran over, Sun Cheng Wang Qinian was instructed by him to say a few words, so he urged into the house, and then saw the little lady holding an account book, and Li Bao and Du Gou'er moved a bunch of things from the house.

These things were brought by the carpenter Lao Min, and some were obtained from nowhere. There are wood, but also iron and leather goods.

Under the command of the division, the two began to distribute those things, and in front of Ding Jiu and the others, they soon put a bunch of them, but except for some small iron tools, everything else was different.

Zhou Quan arrived in front of Ding Jiu, who was the first in line, and then operated it himself: "Brother Ding Jiu, you see, from today on, your business is to put these things together......"

Zhou Quan's assembly speed was very slow, and it took a long time before it was completed. He smiled: "Brother Ding Jiu, do you understand here?" ”

Ding Jiu nodded, and then began to assemble it as well.

Zhou Quan watched from the side for a while, worthy of learning carpenter for a while, at least more neat than Zhou Quan's own movements.

It only took Zhou Quan about two-thirds of the time for Ding Jiu to complete the assembly work, Zhou Quan checked it, and then pointed out several of the defects, either the nails were not nailed tightly, or the tenons were not aligned.

And so on one after another, and by the time the last person arrived, most of the days had passed.

But at this time, Zhou Quan's own assembly had been completed, and Zhou Tong saw that this was a very strange car.

"This car ......" Zhou Tong was a little surprised.

Zhou Quan stepped on the car with a smile, this is actually a three-wheeled bicycle, but because there is no mature chain and sprocket, it relies on cranks and connecting rods to drive the rear wheels to rotate. When Zhou Quan stepped on it, he felt that it was very laborious, but with the skill power he could use at present, he could only do this.

Although the whole car always made various abnormal noises when riding, and there were more than one looseness and shaking, Zhou Quan still rode very happily.

Not only is he happy, from Zhou Tong to Li Bao, the people who see this crooked tricycle are very happy!

After riding for two laps, Zhou Quan got down and wiped the sweat on his head: "I still need to improve ...... more"

Before he finished speaking, Du Gou'er hurriedly stepped into the car: "Da Lang, let me ride and see!" ”

This fight is strong, and after going up, he pedals wildly, and Zhou Quan feels that the road is a little difficult, which is not a matter for him at all.

The main structure of this car is hardwood, but it is reinforced with pig iron bars in key parts, and Zhou Quan has already put a lot of money on it, entrusting blacksmiths to make sprockets and chains, even if it is not as light as that of later generations, and a little rougher like the current waterwheel.

Du Gou'er rode more and more fiercely, it was clearly a three-wheeled bicycle, and he rode him with the demeanor of a fast horse, and then there was a bang, these parts that Zhou Quan put together, after all, did not bear his toss, the whole car fell apart, and he also fell to the ground with a bang.

The crowd was stunned at first, then burst into laughter.

"The structure really needs to be improved, but it can be improved while producing!" Zhou Quan touched his chin and said very unkindly.

"This thing...... What use can it be in Kyoshi? Zhou Tong was a little puzzled.

"It's very useful, uncle, do you know what the most lacking workers in the Jingshi are, laborers!" Zhou Quan said.

In the entire Bianjing City, there are more than 200,000 registered households and 1.5 million people, plus the floating population, the unregistered population, and monks and other monks, Zhou Quan even estimates that the number is probably close to 2 million.

Most of them are concentrated in the inner and outer cities, and the food for these people to eat just every day costs as much as one million catties! Although these food materials were transported to Beijing by canals, they also had to rely on manpower to transport them to all corners of the streets and alleys.

Among them, there is a huge business opportunity!

In the past, relying on people's shoulders to carry the burden, sending two hundred catties could make people out of breath. But as long as you add a carriage behind this small three-wheeled bicycle, you can transport a thousand catties in a place with better road conditions, and five or six hundred catties in a bad place is not too difficult!

In addition, there is also a great use, the carriage is slightly changed, covered with a canopy, and it can carry passengers.

The Great Song Dynasty lost the land of border horse grazing, especially the rebellion of the Western thieves, so that the Great Song Dynasty was extremely short of large livestock, and the Jingshi was good, and there were many oil-walled cars for use, but the car was expensive, not to mention, it could not be recruited at any time.

The price of a mule and horse is enough to buy four or five tricycles, which carry two people through the city of Bianjing...... That picture is extremely beautiful, and it can make Zhou Quan nostalgic for some small cities after nearly a thousand years.

After listening to Zhou Quan's explanation, Zhou Tong finally understood why Zhou Quan was very confident and said that he could solve the livelihood problem of the bereaved families of the forbidden army in Beijing.

He was old and cheerful, and nodded again and again, only to feel that his nephew was really the blood of their Zhou family, and he valued righteousness over profit.

But he never thought that Zhou Quan's car was not given to the bereaved families of the forbidden army for free.

"Quan'er, you are assertive and benevolent, so good...... There is one thing that I also want to teach you to know, I have already found out the identity of that gang of strongmen. Zhou Dong said.

Zhou Quan's spirits lifted, although Jia Yi died, but the group of bandits he recruited was his heart disease.

"They are from Taihang, they were thieves in Taihang Mountain, and the leader is called Lu Jinyi." Zhou Dong said.

"What, Lu Junyi?" Zhou Quan exhaled, and his face changed greatly.

Although in Zhou Quan's view, those so-called heroes, except for a few people, are mostly scoundrels and ruffians and bullies, and the so-called way for heaven is nothing more than killing people and setting fire to be recruited, and the so-called robbing the rich to help the poor is only robbing other people's wealth to help their own poverty, but I have to admit that this guy has the demeanor of a terrorist in the Song Dynasty.

"Have you ever heard of him?" Zhou Tong frowned.

"He's not your disciple?" Thinking of the commentary he had heard, Zhou Quan asked in a low voice.

"My Zhou family has passed on the learning, and the non-loyal people don't pass it on, how can a strongman and bandit like Lu Jinyi be worthy of learning!" Zhou Tong said proudly.

"Lu Jinyi? Not Lu Junyi? This time, Zhou Quan heard clearly.

"Naturally not!"

Zhou Quan scratched his forehead and smiled: he was still dizzy, but fortunately he didn't really live in the Water Margin.

"This thief has returned to Taihang Mountain, you are in Jingshi, you should be fine...... I'm going to go to Tangyin again, your little junior brother's archery skills haven't been taught yet. When Zhou Tong mentioned Yue Fei, his face was full of joy.

"Okay, just bring me a letter...... By the way, there are some gifts, my uncle gave them to my uncle and aunt for me! ”

Zhou Quan made up his mind to marry Yue Fei, and there were some things that he couldn't do, so he was very respectful of those who could do it.

While the two were talking, Du Gou'er, who hadn't repaired the car for a long time, ran over at this time: "Da Lang, Da Lang, the car is broken......

"We've all seen it." Zhou Quan gave him a blank look.

Du Gou'er smirked: "Da Lang, repair it, I'll test it for you!" ”

"It's not a test ride, it's thinking that I want to ride back to the capital to carry Widow Chen." Next to him, Wang Qinian said in a low voice.

Zhou Quan was stunned for a moment, and then saw Du Gou'er annoyed and angry: "Wang Qinian, you wild fox spirit, you can inquire about anything!" ”

Wang Qinian smiled shyly, but shrank behind Zhou Dong, Du Gou'er wanted to rush up to teach him a lesson, but when he saw Zhou Dong, he immediately didn't dare.

Like Zhou Fu, he is the only one who is afraid of Zhou Tong.

"Dog is getting along?" Zhou Tong heard their conversation and was immediately overjoyed: "Even so, don't get married soon." ”

"What's so good about starting a family, I don't have to worry about feeding the whole family now, if I get married, I have to have a concern!" Du Gouer said.

Zhou Tong snorted: "Don't delay others, when I come back, if you don't have a family, I will break your legs!" Quan'er ......"

Without waiting for him to say, Zhou Quan smiled and said, "I used to know that Uncle Gou'er gave popsicles to people, but I never thought that there was a good match, Widow Chen...... But that tofu Shih Tzu? Uncle Dog has a good eye, and you picked a branch of flowers in the bitter well lane! ”

"What to say, no big or small!" Zhou Tong shouted.

Now Zhou Quan can understand why his father and Du Gou'er are afraid of Zhou Tong, this old man is too serious.

"Uncle Dog, look, I'm going to do something big now, no one can help me, my father and my mother don't seem to be able to add a brother to me, and neither can my uncle......"

Zhou Quan's words immediately provoked a slap, and Zhou Tong's old face was slightly red: "Talk about people!" ”

"Okay, anyway, Uncle Dog, if you can add a younger brother or sister to me within a year, I will give me a big gift for the full moon!"

"Really?" Du Gou'er moved.

"Naturally!"

"After eight months, you're ready to give gifts!" Du Gouer barked.

Zhou Quan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "It turns out that you have already made up the ticket after getting on the bus first!" ”

It was Zhou Tong, who shook his head helplessly at this time: "What kind of system, what kind of system!" ”

"I'll just say it, count the time...... Or my popsicle got you hands! Uncle Dog, don't think about the tricycle anymore, hurry back and ask for a matchmaker...... You don't need to find someone else, Li Bao, doesn't your mother often do this, let's go back to prepare gifts and ask for a kiss for Uncle Dog! Zhou Quan laughed.

"Ask for a kiss, ask for a kiss!" Li Bao, who is usually silent and silent, also shouted at this time.

"Things should be done sooner rather than later, otherwise the bride will have a big belly, but it will be a little difficult to see people!" Zhou Tong coughed, infected by this joyful atmosphere, and couldn't help but say.
