"Your Majesty, slow down, don't fall, the old slave can't keep up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

On the square, Xiao Ming rode a bicycle to and fro like the wind, and Qian Dafu and Niu Ben ran behind Xiao Ming.

After a while, the two of them were out of breath, but Xiao Ming was still relaxed.

In this lathe upgrade, Qingzhou has been able to produce chains used in bicycles, and the technology of rubber has already been mastered, so at this time the bicycle application was born.

It can be said that the birth of the bicycle is the proof of Qingzhou's industrial upgrading.

Stopping in front of the two, Xiao Ming said to Niu Ben: "General Niu, how is this bicycle?" ”

Niu Ben's eyes were full of amazement, and he said: "Your Majesty, this thing is amazing, we have been running for so long, the emperor has no intention of being tired at all, and he can run really fast on this thing." ”

"No, the old slave's legs are broken." Qian Dafu was out of breath.

Xiao Ming laughed, just now he just rode two miles, and with this in the future, he only needs half an hour to get from Qingzhou South to Qingzhou North.

patted the sturdy skeleton of the bicycle, Xiao Ming took a closer look, and this bicycle was the bicycle with girder he designed.

The appearance is the same as that of the contemporary bicycles of the sixties and seventies, and there is a sense of vicissitudes.

Nodding with satisfaction, Xiao Ming looked at Niu Ben, "Do you want to give it a try?" ”

"This, how embarrassing will this be......" Although Niu Ben shirked, his hand was holding the handlebar of the bicycle.

It was a novelty that tickled his heart.

Xiao Ming didn't rush to let Niu Ben ride, this veteran is also old, and if he falls, he will have to go to the hospital.

So he demonstrated it to him in front of Niu Ben, and then asked Qian Dafu to grab the back seat of the bicycle to prevent Niu Ben from falling and eating.

At this time, Niu Ben couldn't suppress his impulse, and as soon as Xiao Ming let go, he immediately pushed the bicycle and walked forward a few steps, and then stepped on the pedal with one leg, and the other foot bypassed the back and stepped on the other pedal.

It's just the first time riding a bicycle, Niu Ben can't grasp the balance of his body, so he twists and twists the bike a few times, and falls to the ground with a snap.

Qian Dafu was guilty, he couldn't support the weight of Niu Ben, and he fell to the ground.

The guards on both sides couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene, Qian Dafu got up in embarrassment, supported his waist with one hand, and complained: "Your Majesty, the old slave's waist is about to break." ”

"Out of breath." Xiao Ming understood that Qian Dafu's intentions were a little hypocritical, he pointed to the guards who were snickering and said, "You guys." ”

The guards suddenly didn't dare to laugh anymore, Niu Ben got up at this time, and he didn't fall because he was supported by the rich and rich.

His interest was not diminished by the fall, "I don't believe it's harder than riding a horse!"

With that, he put his bike back on his pedal and rode slowly around the square with the help of three young guards.

With three guards in front of him, Niu Ben slowly found his senses, and after ten minutes he let the guards go, and walked around the square on a bicycle alone.

While riding him, he laughed and said, "Your Majesty, this is so interesting, it's the first time the last general has seen such an interesting thing." ”

Qian Dafu's eyes were a little hot, and he said, "General Niu, you let me try it too." ”

Niu Ben was on the rise, where he was willing, he pretended not to know and rode a bicycle and went around, and the angry Qian Dafu stomped his feet.

Xiao Ming shook his head, this bicycle was a rare thing in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was in the three turns of marriage at that time.

From the two people's obsession with bicycles, Xiao Ming seems to see another road to make money, in his opinion, once the bicycle is on sale, it will definitely cause the wealthy class to rush to buy.

Thinking of this, he asked the craftsman, "How many bicycles have you built now?" ”

"Back to the emperor, a total of eight have been made now, and eight more are being assembled." The craftsman said respectfully.

Xiao Ming nodded, "You go back and tell Zhang Liu to start building a factory for production, this matter can't be delayed, and send the remaining seven cars to the palace." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The craftsman bowed and left.

For Xiao Ming, he suddenly found a new thing that could be used as a reward, and he said to Niu Ben: "General Niu, this bicycle will be given to you, and you can ride it back." ”

"What!" Niu Ben almost fell off his bike.

He stopped in front of Xiao Ming and his face flushed with excitement, this bicycle was too much for his appetite, and he wanted it from the bottom of his heart.

"I didn't give you any reward for the victory of the Northern Expedition, and this bike should be regarded as making up for it." Xiao Ming said.

On the one hand, he is trying to win people's hearts, and on the other hand, he wants Niu Ben to ride a bicycle back home, so that Niu Ben, a veteran, is a living signboard, and the name of the bicycle will soon spread in Qingzhou.

"Emperor Xie, Emperor Xie!"

Niu Ben said happily that for him, this was more real than rewarding him with a thousand taels of silver.

After thanking him again and again, Niu Ben said goodbye to Xiao Ming, and he couldn't help but want to show off in front of other officials.

After saying goodbye, he rode his bicycle and smoked to the outer palace, where the court officials worked.

If it was before, Niu Ben would have gone straight out of the gate of the outer palace, but today he deliberately rode a bicycle in front of the official office of the outer palace.

Along the way, the guards, eunuchs and palace maids all showed curious and envious looks to him, which made him feel a kind of unprecedented satisfaction in his heart.

This satisfaction is not the joy of winning a war.

"General Niu, what is this?"

Niu Ben's appearance quickly attracted the attention of the officials, the time was about to reach noon, and it was time for the officials to eat.

"The emperor just rewarded it, the first one in Dayu Kingdom, and the emperor said that this is called a bicycle." Niu Ben's face showed a look of underbeating.

Fiji still doesn't understand what this bicycle is, but the emperor rewarded him, and the first such words already made him a little envious.

Pang Yukun and other officials also surrounded at this time, unlike other officials, Pang Yukun followed Xiao Ming to see the bicycle, and couldn't help but be surprised: "This is the bicycle that the emperor said traveled 300 miles a day?" ”

"Three hundred miles!" A group of officials gasped when they heard this, "How is this possible? ”

Niu Ben's eyes widened, and he said, "How is it impossible, it's fast to ride a bicycle, don't believe you!"

After that, Niu Ben rode the bicycle with full strength, and rode hundreds of meters between breaths.

The officials were dumbfounded, and one by one showed envious looks, Fiji and Pang Yukun looked at each other, and the two showed cunning expressions.

Of course, this good thing is close to the water, and they want one too.
