Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.: Chapter 1211 Extra 4: Technology changes the future
Chapter 1211 Extra 4 Technology changes the future
“Oh, oh, it really went away! Great, it was a success!”
“Success, success! Two wheels can run so fast!”
“You don’t need cows and horses, you just rely on your legs. It’s amazing! You don’t have to walk anymore!”
Among the many islands belonging to the Li family, next to Thunder Island, which has the highest security level, there is a much larger island that is home to hundreds of people from Zhengjiazhuang, old and young.
At this moment, because of another successful experiment, the island is completely boiling!
This island is named Future Island!
When they first settled in, everyone felt that the name given by the princess was hard to pronounce.
But the princess said that technology changes the future.
The things they like to study most every day are considered by others to be fancy skills that are not considered elegant, but the princess said that these things are called science and technology.
And technology will bring about earth-shaking changes to the entire Tianwu in many years!
Everyone will be amazed by technology and frightened by the changes!
Actually, the Zheng family doesn’t have that much ambition, they just like it.
But the princess had such high expectations for them, they suddenly thought they could give it a try!
Try it hard!
Leaving Zhengjiazhuang and retreating to the southeast coast, outsiders may feel that leaving their hometown brings a lot of pain and reluctance.
Even the host family tried their best to compensate them and wanted to give them a better environment and better support.
In fact, they were not unhappy at all!
Previously in Zhengjiazhuang, under the eyes of the emperor and the world, they wanted to do something novel, but they were cautious and timid!
Now, far away from the world, I can finally let go and do something big.
The more labor-saving and lighter plow has solved the problem of people's difficulty in farming.
Shock-absorbing carriages make traveling more convenient and comfortable for people.
The labor-saving washing machine has made it possible for maids from wealthy households to no longer have their fingers swollen like carrots in winter...
After ten years, the name of Science and Technology Island is known to everyone in Tianwu.
Even if you don’t know where the Science and Technology Island is, the elderly and children on the streets can tell you clearly.
Every time something new is launched, it becomes popular throughout the country.
And this time, the two-wheeled bicycle was successful again!
Several craftsmen in their thirties and a group of young men gathered around the two-wheeled bicycles, happily wiping and wiping them, not wanting to get a little dust on them.
A craftsman said, "The princess asked the fleet to go out to sea to find rubber, but I didn't take it seriously. Now I know that this thing is so useful. The sealing effect is 10,000 times better than cork. I didn't expect to make it into wheels and absorb shock." And lightweight!”
“Yes, yes! This tire will definitely work better when put on a carriage! Do we want to try it?” Another companion was eager to try.
As a result, this proposal was immediately rejected by the master who was stroking his beard.
“When we think about things, the most important thing is to keep our feet on the ground! Compared with the appearance drawn by the princess, these two-wheeled bicycles are more than a circle larger and look bulky. We should find ways to improve!
“In addition, in addition to two-wheeled vehicles, we also need to think about tricycles quickly. The princess said that tricycles can not only pick up people, but also transport things more conveniently.”
The other craftsmen were not discouraged even though they were splashed with cold water, and responded with a smile.
“I understand, Master. We have the prototype of a two-wheeled vehicle, and it is not difficult to improve.”
"Yes, let me think about the tricycle. It just so happens that the birthday of the old lady is in a few days! I will present one to you then and ask the old lady to sit on the tricycle we are thinking about and see how lively it is on the streets of Quanzhou. good!"
“Haha, if the old lady rides a tricycle on the street, she will not be watching the fun, but will be regarded as a fun!”
Everyone was chattering lively. Finally, they turned on the tap and drank water, washed their hands, and then dispersed.
This tap water is imported from mountain springs into pipes and transported down. Now it reaches every household, which is really convenient.
As a result, before everyone had taken two steps, there was a loud noise from Thunder Island next to them, and a puff of black smoke came from the island.
Everyone stopped immediately and listened nervously for a long time to the sound of the bell ringing without calling for help, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
“Third uncle and the others don’t know what they are thinking about. They have been frightened all day long.”
"I heard it was a cannon put on the ship. Last time the master's young men went to sea, they almost suffered a loss from the Japanese pirates. They planned to blow up the Japanese pirates' lair to the ground!" Everyone whispered for a few words, and then the master shouted.
“Just say a few words to my family, and remember not to spread it everywhere. The things on Thunder Island are a means for the master and us to settle down. If someone with a heart knows about it, it will be a big trouble!”
"Don't worry, master, we know what's going on!"
“That’s right, I would rather die than become a traitor!”
“Those who are not strict with their mouths are sent to Quanzhou. We don’t want to leave home!”
“I’m going to get a bearing for the stove!”
“I’ll go too. The tubes on the bicycle are still too thick. It would be nice if they were thinner and could bear more weight!”
Everyone was afraid of being scolded again, so they just made excuses and rubbed their feet.
The master clasped his hands behind his back and laughed and scolded, "The master doesn't dislike these idiots, but they still support them like treasures!"
The young man next to him joined in the fun and asked, "Master, what blueprints did the princess send from outside the other day? I heard that it can fly in the sky, right?"
Before the master could respond, get out of class was over in the school.
A group of eight or nine-year-old brats came over like a swarm. They were all disappointed when they saw that the experiment was over.
So the brats surrounded the master and pretended to cry.
“Woo, grandpa, we haven’t seen the bicycle yet!”
“I want to see how a two-wheeled car runs, I want to see it!”
The master would scold his disciples whenever he asked, and when he was angry, he would kick them.
But he has never lacked patience and affection for these hopes for the future of Zhengjiazhuang.
You know, since he was at this age, he has been watching behind his father, slowly growing from interest to proficiency, and now he is taking the leading role.
“Okay, okay, don’t make trouble, I’ll have someone push the two-wheeled car back, you all have a try!”
The master comforted the children in a good voice, and then sent most of the boys to push the cart.
Soon, the two-wheeled vehicle was pushed back.
The brats were no taller than the car seats. When they were put on the carriage, their feet couldn't hook onto the footrests, and they scratched their heads and ears anxiously.
In the end, one boy was brave enough to stretch his legs out from under the beam, and rode around the grain drying field several times, making other friends run and jump, as if they had discovered a new world.
The master was inspired and shouted to the young man, "The princess said that the money is best earned from children and women!
"Hurry up and remember it for me. For bicycles, give priority to small bicycles. They are suitable for children to ride. With training wheels on the back, they are easy to learn and not easy to fall! Maybe, the money earned from a small bicycle is enough to install an artillery for the fleet. "
The young man quickly wrote it down and sent it out quickly.
In less than half a month, one hundred exquisite and novel bicycles of various sizes were delivered to Quanzhou, which directly set off a cycling craze among young men and ladies.
Every family can afford horses, but horses are uncontrollable and too dangerous to ride on. Moreover, horses have to **** and urinate, which also embarrasses elegant and noble young men and ladies.
How wonderful it is to ride a bicycle. You can go when you want and stop when you want. You don’t need to feed grass or feed. It doesn’t stink or get dirty. As long as you go out on the street, you will be the most handsome boy in the city.
As a result, the little bicycles quickly became extremely popular. One bicycle sold for two hundred taels, but it still had no market value.
Although it is not as much as the master expected, a bicycle can be mounted on top of an artillery piece, but it is not much different!
At this time, the second batch of bicycles has been shipped to Xindu...
There are more wealthy families in Xindu, so prepare your wallets and prepare to be robbed again by "new technology"!
