Chapter 235: Horseback
Ruohong walked to the door of a room and looked into the house, which was a workshop dedicated to carving building blocks, and there were seven carvers in the room, with eleven apprentices working here.
The people in the house also heard the shouting that the eldest lady was coming, although they were also curious about what the eldest lady looked like, but they didn't dare to run out to take a look, but when Ruoxue Ruohong walked to the door, they looked twice, and then lowered their heads and went to work seriously.
Ruolan was very curious about those craftsmen, and with a pair of big eyes, she stared at the craftsmen and the tools in their hands with novelty, "Big sister and third sister, what is he holding in his hand?" She said.
"I don't know!"
Ruoxue and Ruohong didn't know what the names of those tools were, and many of them were the first time they had seen them, and if it weren't for the craftsmen who were using them to work, they wouldn't know what they were for.
Deng Hu took out two scooters from the house, put them in the open space in the yard, and said: "Miss, Miss, Miss, come and see, this is done, and there are two more in the house." ”
These are two different scooters, one is a pedal scooter and the other is a ride-on scooter.
Ruohong walked over and took a closer look at the scooter, which was even better than she expected, with a mortise and tenon structure, wooden pedals, handrails that could be turned, and wooden wheels wrapped with a layer of leather that increased friction.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Ruolan already sitting in the car next to him, slowly sliding there.
This is a horseback riding bike designed by Ruohong, the body is in the shape of a horseback, and the handle is a horse's head, but there are two more horizontal handles on both sides.
She thinks that ancient people rode horses, so she designed it to look like a horse, which is more relatable.
Ruoxue was standing next to her, and when she saw Ruohong looking at it for a while, she asked, "What do you think?" ”
Ruohong smiled and said, "It's great, it's even better than I thought!" ”
Deng Hu heard Ruohong's words, and a proud smile appeared on his face.
Ruolan ran over and said, "Third sister, is this how this horse with a wheeled horse plays?" ”
She didn't want to come to Zhuangzi, she just wanted to take her two sisters to watch the excitement on the street, and she heard Ruohong say that there was a fun thing in Zhuangzi, so she agreed to come here.
Ruohong listened to Ruolan's words and laughed, "Hahaha...... Yes, that's how it is played. She said.
Ruohong carefully stepped on the scooter, and as soon as the other foot landed on the ground, the scooter ran out.
Two people, one big and one small, ran up in the courtyard.
The children standing at the gate of the courtyard all looked at Ruohong and Ruolan playing there with envious eyes, and their eyes lingered on the two strange cars.
They had only seen the big car they were riding, and it was the first time they had seen this kind of car for a child, and the upright car had only two wheels, which felt unreliable and easy to fall.
The horse was very funny, it had no four legs, but it had four more wheels, and although it was made of wood, it could be ridden and run, and it made me want to ride it and turn it twice.
The earth dog seemed to like the two cars too, so he ran over and ran after them.
Ruolan saw the earth dog running towards her, waw wow screamed and chased after Ruohong, Ruohong also saw the dog, she dropped the scooter and turned around to catch Ruolan, and picked her up from the car.
Rice Pearl flew up from the side, flew towards the dog quickly, spun around and kicked it, and the next moment, the earth dog flew out, rolled in the air a few times, and then fell to the ground in the doorway.
When the dog landed, he barked and ran out of the door.
The girls at the door picked up the two small ones in fright and ran out, and after a while, there were two bold girls who looked inside with the door frame.
Ruohong raised her hand and patted Ruolan's back and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay." ”
Ruoxue also came to see Ruolan, touched her little tug, and said, "Are you scared?" ”
"Nope." Ruolan whispered.
Ruohong reluctantly turned her head to look at the pearl, "Don't be so powerful!" The dog just wanted to play along. She saw a series of movements of Mi Pearl, which was done in one go, which can be said to be beautiful and domineering.
Rice Pearl snorted and said, "I'm not it, how do I know what it thinks." ”
Deng Hu looked at Mi Pearl with palpitations, that skill and speed can simply make people retreat, how can such a girl get married.
Deng Hu waved his hand to signal the children to leave, and then turned his head to let the craftsmen who came out to see the excitement go back to work, before he came over to ask Ruohong what else needed to be improved.
Ruohong looked at the two scooters again and asked Deng Hu to change the wheels of the scooters from the current one inch thick to two inches thick, so that the wheels have a large force surface and can walk on different grounds.
Deng Hu respectfully agreed, he knew that these building blocks checkers, as well as this scooter were all thought up by Miss San, so he asked her opinion.
Ruoxue was concerned about other things, "How many people did this, how many days did it take?" She said.
Deng Hu bowed down and replied: "This was made by Master Wang with two apprentices, and it took twenty-two days to make four." ”
Ruoxue looked at the two scooters, she just wanted Deng Hu to make the horseback scooter, and if it was made in large quantities, it would be necessary to increase manpower and build another yard.
Deng Hu also thought that this new object would be made in large quantities, but it would be too difficult for them to make hundreds of boxes of building blocks every month, and let them make such things.
He wanted to build a workshop in the peanut field at the west end of Zhuangzi to make this kind of car. I have to find six or seven more carpenter masters, and as for apprentices and helpers, this is easy, and there are people in Zhuangzi who are willing to do it.
He said his thoughts, Ruoxue thought it was feasible, let him do the things at hand first, and in a few days she asked people to measure the size of the building, and then find someone to build the courtyard of the house.
While talking, there was a chaotic voice outside the courtyard, and between the lines they were asking where Ruoxue was.
Ruoxue and Ruohong walked out with Ruolan, and saw several old people gathering outside the door with a group of people, and when they saw Ruoxue and them coming out, they all knelt down and kowtowed to them.
Many of them have never seen anyone from the owner family in their lives, and just now I heard a few children say that the eldest lady is coming, so they came over to see and see together.
Ruoxue asked everyone to get up, exchanged a few words with several old men, and asked them if they still had food in stock at home at this time, and whether they were enough to eat new food.
Everyone said that there was still food at home, enough to eat until summer and autumn, and if they didn't believe it, they asked Ruoxue and them to go to the house to have a look.
After gossiping with everyone for a while, Ruoxue and the others got into the carriage and went back.
The two scooters were also taken away.
"Why is the eldest lady in such a hurry! I didn't even drink tea. ”
"How can the eldest lady drink that tea in your house?!"
"What's wrong with my tea? That's also fifty dollars to buy, why can't you drink it? ”
"Okay, the eldest lady drinks tea for dozens of taels of silver."
"How can there be such expensive tea?!"
