Shen Yicong is really amazing, but even more amazing is Yang Ruoqing

Without Yang Ruoqing, there would be no Science and Technology Garden

In the early days of the Science and Technology Garden, almost all of it was supported by money from Yang's Trading Company. Later, he invested the court's money to become a shareholder, which was regarded as making the Science and Technology Garden official.

It is Yang Ruoqing who attaches great importance to the development of engineering and science and technology, and she has many fantastic ideas.

Thinking of this, Qi Xingyun suddenly remembered the many drawings that Yang Ruoqing left for him last time. He had studied them himself, and they were closely related to track driving like Yuzhou.

Qi Xingyun retracted his thoughts and began to look at the flying boat. This flying boat was not even painted, it was just the original wood color.

Qi Xingyun can also see the pedals on the first floor, with a total of eight positions.

Unlike Qi Xingyun's Dajia Yuji, which pursues comfort, this car does not have so many luxurious accessories and exquisite patterns.

Although it is a bit rustic, it is practical and compact.

The power cabin on the bottom floor is very low. People have to bend down to get in, and it is just big enough to sit down.

The second floor above is sealed and Qi Xingyun cannot see it from the outside. The top floor is fenced so that goods can be bundled in the open air.

The entire Yuzhou is less than three meters in height, which is not very big. It looks like a rectangular shuttle, lying prone on the ground.

It was Qin Shihuang who made the cars run on the same track. The distance between the wheels is about six feet.

"Why not paint it?" Qi Xingyun asked as he looked at the boat.

At this time, it was Zhang Tingyu who stepped forward. There were some things that Zhang Tingyu should answer, not Shen Yicong.

"It would be too expensive to paint it bright red," Zhang Tingyu said.

Qi Xingyun was silent. This is the seventh year of Daqi's war. Even Daqi, who was once rich, can't afford to fight.

Seeing the emperor's face full of worry from the side, Zhang Tingyu smiled and said, "There are also painted cars, but they smell very strong, so I didn't show them to the emperor."

Qi Xingyun thought about it and understood why Zhang Tingyu showed him a log cart.

In fact, Zhang Tingyu’s meaning is very simple, just two words to make money

This is crying for poverty

What a trick, Bachelor Zhang, you are not honest anymore.

Qi Xingyun smiled and walked up the escalator, got under the car and pedaled twice, tried it, but it didn't move.

"If the horse is running with him, can the speed of the boatman's pedaling catch up with the speed of the horse? Will it not hurt his feet?" Qi Xingyun asked his own question.

Then I saw Shen Yicong's extremely suspicious eyes.

Shen Yicong took out a wheel and said, "I thought the emperor would ask some other questions."

"This is a flywheel. This is a simple application of machinery. When you step forward with force, the chain drives the flywheel to rotate forward."

"At this time, the inner teeth of the flywheel and the jacks are included, so they can naturally move forward. When no force is used, the jacks of the flywheel bite the internal teeth, and naturally the chain will not be driven. How could it hurt the boatman?"

Shen Yicong's face was full of doubts. Qi Xingyun looked at the power cabin under his feet and the flywheel for a long time.

Only then did he understand that this Yuzhou was, to put it bluntly, a carriage running on the railroad tracks.

Shen Yicong is so mysterious

In the final analysis, it still depends on the horse, and the role of the person in the car is to assist.

Qi Xingyun immediately understood what Shen Yicong had done.

I also understood what Shen Yicong's eyes meant.

His question, from this point of view, is indeed very stupid.

Qi Xingyun got out of this three-meter-long car. It was indeed a very interesting thing.

Horsepower assisted bicycle rail car

"How fast can this boat run?" He looked at the position of the pull ring and monitored it carefully. The reason why it was only built to be only over two meters high was because it was afraid of rolling over.

Zhang Tingyu bowed his head and said, "It's easy to travel thousands of miles in a day, but you have to change horses at every stop. There are not many horses in Daqi, so there are not many boats."

"The eight people pedaling in the car were solely to save horsepower."

Qi Xingyun took a deep breath, there was no horse

Ever since he took the throne, this topic has been lingering on his mind and has never been far away.

The current grassland bad horses are only enough for the Qi army. It can be seen that they are used to transport grain and grass. Their priority is not as high as those used by the military.

"The racecourse in the north hasn't put out horses yet. Isn't it called a million-horse racecourse?" Qi Xingyun asked as he continued to walk forward.

Zhang Tingyu nodded and said, "The horse pen in the north has only been built for less than two years. How can it be so fast?"

"What is this?" Qi Xingyun asked curiously as he looked at the car in front of him.

At this station, there are not only Yuzhou and Qi Xingyun's big cars, but also a small car that is not very high.

One meter high, less than two meters long, and about six feet wide.

Shen Yicong sighed and said, "I haven't decided on a name yet. I just think it's too laborious and I don't know how to change it. I made a sample."

"This year, the Science and Technology Garden has been working on the training of the Royal Boat, but after it was completed, there were no horses. The iron-wood track with the fastest track could only be left as it was. Everyone was a little anxious, so they thought about using manpower."

"Two people can sit in the middle, and it can be stepped on just like the Yuzhou, but sitting inside like this really takes up space. You can't put much cargo."

Qi Xingyun nodded, he knew what Shen Yicong wanted.

Daqi is short of horses, this is a fact.

The horse farm near Daliao in the north was established not long ago. Training a large number of horses does not happen overnight.

If there is a shortage of horses, we must find a way to replace the power. Shen Yicong's idea is to replace horse power with manpower.

On the boat, Shen Yicong's idea of ​​improvement can already be seen.

What he wants to do now is to build a small human-powered cart that can run on the rails, and first use the repaired iron-clad wooden rails.

"Bring me a pen!" Qi Xingyun shouted

Qi Xingyun has already remembered the design drawings given by Yang Ruoqing.

It happened to be about this aspect, and he even had some experience of his own, and could modify the car in front of him based on the corresponding drawings.

When Eunuch Wang Yun heard Qi Xingyun's call, he quickly ran away with another little eunuch. After a while, he ran back with a table in his hair.

Eunuch Wang Yun pulled the pen from the end of his hair and said, "Here, Your Majesty, it's not a goat hair. If Your Majesty isn't used to it, I'll look for it again."

Qi Xingyun looked at the panting Eunuch Wang Yun and said, "I can use it without the wolf hair."

Qi Xingyun quickly drew a three-dimensional view on the paper, and then drew a few more pictures. He looked at the little eunuch next to him and asked, "What's your name? I've been seeing you the past two days."
Chapter completed!
