The blast furnace base doesn't have so many houses and residences, and it can't accommodate so many for the time being, so it can only be done in batches.

This time only 2000 people were transferred, and the craftsmen temporarily had less than 1000 people, and the rest were their families.

"Your Majesty is here!" At this moment, a eunuch shouted from behind the team.

Everyone turned around and saw that Li Shimin appeared behind the team on a horse.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly got off their horses and saluted Li Shimin.

"The grass people have seen His Majesty"

"My son sees my father."

Li Tai was speechless in his heart, didn't you, Li Er, say you're going to be okay?

"Pingshen!" Li Shimin said with joy and high spirits, waving a whip in one hand, "Pingshen!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

The crowd dispersed slowly, and Li Shimin rode a horse and led the guards to Li Tai and Duan Lun.

"After thinking about it, I was still a little worried, so I wanted to see it for myself." Li Shimin looked at it with a smile, but there was no doubt in his words.

"I understand." Since Li Shimin wanted to watch it, he had no choice but to let him.

"Let's go!!" Li Shimin yelled, the soldiers opened the way ahead, and the rear of the team was not allowed to follow, protecting the whole team all the way to the blast furnace base.

Countless people in Chang'an watched this scene, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

A few days ago, as soon as the court meeting was over, news spread in Chang'an that Li Shimin would take charge of the chamber of commerce.

All of a sudden, families big and small were blown up, and they began to worry about their own family.

Worried about whether you will be eaten up, should you quit the membership immediately?But will it be remembered by Li Shimin if he resigns?

Thinking of this, many families holding shares in the chamber of commerce feel that this is a hot potato and don't know what to do.

Those who are familiar with the chamber of commerce or have inside information are firm holders, while those who do not hold shares are gloating and watching the excitement.

But soon their worry turned into surprise, because they didn't know when someone was willing to accept the shares at the original price.

Many families didn't think so much, and quickly threw them all out, taking advantage of the fact that they were not losing money.

Just when they were rejoicing, people came to buy one after another.

Everyone wondered, isn't this a hot potato?Why is anyone else willing to take over?

Aren't you afraid that Li Shimin will control his family by borrowing from the merchant?

Just when everyone was feeling puzzled, someone found out the person who bought the shares of the chamber of commerce at a high price.

They were all important ministers of the imperial court, and all of them were people with real power, either they were the prime ministers of the court, or they had been with Li Shimin for many years.

Everyone's doubts deepened. What does this mean? Could it be that they want to take back these shares, or could it be that they lost money by selling them?

It didn't take long for an explosive news to spread-the National Academy of Sciences actually researched clairvoyance! !

If it was a storyteller from Shifang, everyone would just take it as a joke and laugh it off.

And when the news came from the mouth of the minister, everyone was dumbfounded and began to doubt life.

Does this thing really exist?Is it because I didn't wake up?

Although most people haven't seen it, but the biography has a good nose, coupled with the recent abnormal behavior of important ministers, many families seem to understand something.

If you guessed right, this is Li Shimin's conspiracy. It can not only eliminate supporters who are not firm enough, but also benefit important ministers. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

But it's useless to see through it. Most of the shares in the family's hands have been sold.

For a while, some people were annoyed and regretted, but when they wanted to sell it back, they found that no amount of money could buy it anymore.

But today, when the news came that the first group of people were going to the State Council, countless people watched secretly, sighing in their hearts.

With so much manpower and material resources invested, no one knows what science can develop into, but many people know that a great opportunity has been missed.

Watching the team drifting away, many people's families have staged various life situations.

Some people beat their chests and stamped their feet, and said with great regret: "I'm so stupid, I actually sold the shares at a low price. Not only did I lose money, but I also took advantage of a great opportunity."

Some people were even annoyed: "So many people go to study science, maybe they will all go to heaven by then!!"

The blast furnace base is not far away, and it only takes half an hour to ride a fast horse.

But there are old people and children in the team, and a lot of goods have to be transported, so the speed of the whole team is not fast.

It took two full hours before they arrived nearby.

Turning around a mountain forest, the blast furnace came into view. At this moment, the red smoke billowed straight into the sky.

There was a heavy and powerful 'bang' sound in my ears, mixed with the sound of a 'woo' flute from time to time, and then a thick white smoke floated up.

Everyone who saw this scene was incomparably novel and began to discuss it.

"It's said that the billowing red smoke is a bad omen from heaven, but I never thought it came from the National Academy!"

"The one that is emitting white smoke is on fire. Do you need to put out the fire?"

"What is this sound, and why can it travel so far?"

As the craftsmen spoke, they quickly passed the first checkpoint, and a cement road appeared in front of them.

"This road? It seems to be built with stones, but it doesn't look like it. Why are there many traces, and there are so many sawdust and black ash?"

"There are no gaps, and there are no cracks in the rocks. How did you repair it?"

A group of people stepped on this concrete road, feeling extremely curious.

As the crowd moved forward, there was a sound of horseshoes and wheels, and after a closer look, there was a team delivering supplies at another intersection.

It's just that, unlike the previous two-wheeled wooden carts and one-wheeled carts, this time the transportation team used actually consisted of three-wheeled iron carts.

In front are two horses with unique saddles, pulling a vermilion iron carriage, which is filled with ore.

A person sat securely in the middle of the front wheel, holding a straight iron rod with both hands. This should be the dragon head that controls the direction, and the two ends of the dragon head are tied with horse ropes, and one foot is stepping on the brake.

When the group saw Li Shimin's arrival, they immediately stepped on the brakes.

I saw that the concave-arc brake device directly blocked the two front wheels, preventing the rear wheels from moving.

When the speed was even lower, they tightened the reins, and shouted 'law' loudly to stop the horse.

Chapter 141 I want to test drive!

A group of people watched in amazement, pointed and discussed.

"A car made of iron?"

"This National Court is too luxurious!"

"The load seems to be full of goods, probably as much as a thousand catties."

The group of people who had parked the car hurriedly got off the four-wheeled iron cart, saluted Li Shimin and said, "See Your Majesty, Caomin."

On the other hand, Li Tai's eyes widened. The low and thick wheels, the square carriage, and the braking method are already very advanced.

It's just that it looks like a four-dimensional product.

The carriage is like a shrunken freight train carriage, the power source is two horses, the paint is also vermilion, and the steering is like the bridle of a bicycle...

"Exemption."

Li Shimin saw the bright light in front of the iron-skinned carriage, stepped forward, stretched out his hand and rang the "dongdong" of the carriage bridge, and carefully checked the thickness of the iron-skinned carriage.

The face was extremely surprised: "This thickness is only less than five millimeters!!"

Then he turned his head to the person driving the carriage and asked, "Who made this cart? What's its name? How much does it weigh, and how much can it hold?"

Before a few people answered, Li Chunfeng was also driving a three-wheeled cart in the distance, galloping towards him, and the Imperial Forest Army quickly stopped in front of Li Shimin.

But Li Chunfeng saw that everyone stepped on the brakes quickly, and saw sparks coming out of the two wheels.

After a certain distance, the speed gradually slowed down, and then he slowly pulled the rein and shouted "Lü~", and the carriage slowly stopped in front of everyone.

He put down the handbrake, supported the iron pole next to him with one hand, turned over and jumped directly in front of Li Shimin.

How imposing! !

"I'm late, please forgive me, Your Majesty." Li Chunfeng hurriedly bowed his head and saluted.

On the other hand, Li Shimin's eyes were shining brightly, a strange impulse made him feel itchy, and he wished to try such a strange way of driving right away.

"The side of this car is domineering and mighty, what kind of car is this!?" Li Shimin pushed aside the Imperial Forest Army and stepped forward to ask.

"Return to Your Majesty, this car is just an ordinary ore transport car with no name." Li Chunfeng quickly explained.

"Mine cart? No name..." Li Shimin was speechless, and looked at Li Chunfeng in surprise.

Li Chunfeng was surprised by Li Shimin, thinking that Li Shimin blamed him for wasting iron, so he hurriedly explained.

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate this cart. It weighs [-] catties, and it can carry [-] catties of cargo. It only needs to go back and forth twenty times to get together a furnace of ore."

"Yes, Not Bad!!"

Li Shimin listened and nodded, walked around in a circle, and jumped into the car just like Li Chunfeng.

Li Chunfeng turned pale with shock, and hurriedly said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, people who have never learned this car should not drive it at will, it is easy to overturn!"

While speaking, Li Shimin had already sat down, holding the bridle with his hand, and nodded upon hearing Li Chunfeng's advice.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought he was going to give up, but they didn't expect him to order directly: "Well, then you come up and teach me, I want to try this car."

Li Tai on the side was very speechless, Li Er, you want to try everything... This is a car weighing [-] catties, if it gets into an accident, it will be miserable.

Thinking of this, he hastened to persuade him: "Father, for the sake of the dragon's body, it is better not to test the car!!"

"We don't let the cannons be tested, and the cars are not allowed to be tested, so I am really angry.

I don't care if I haven't seen such a majestic car, I have to try it today, not to mention, Li Chunfeng can drive, so I can't drive it? "

Li Shimin's face was dark and heartbroken, he didn't listen to the advice at all, and said directly to Li Chunfeng: "Ai Qing, hurry up, or I will punish you."

After speaking, he tried to turn the bridle, and stepped on the brakes again.

The corners of Li Tai's mouth twitched after hearing this. Isn't this just a mine cart, it's the same as anything, and he still wants to try it, really speechless.

"This, this..." Li Chunfeng was in a dilemma, and looked at Li Tai.

"Father, it weighs eight hundred catties, what if the car overturns!"

Li Tai is here to advise Li Shimin that the weight of this car is not low, and if it is under the weight of [-] catties, it may be cold if there is an internal injury.

"The emperor underestimates me too much. I have killed countless enemies all my life, how can I overturn here?"

Li Shimin was very disdainful with his nostrils upturned, and began to fumble for the handbrake after speaking.

"Hey..." Li Tai let out a long sigh, since he can't be persuaded, he can only go with him... Turning to Li Shimin, he said, "Father, I feel that I should wear a helmet and armor to avoid injury." .”

"Isn't it just a test car, so troublesome!?" Li Shimin said reluctantly after hearing this.

"Father, for the sake of safety, this is necessary." Li Tai said seriously.

People are full of weaknesses, especially the head. In ancient times, when hunting wild animals, people used tortoise shells and coconut shells as helmets for hunting and fighting.

In motorcycle accidents, the head has the highest fatality rate, the neck is the second, and the others are relatively low. Wearing a helmet can increase the chance of survival by 70%, except for drag racing.

"Okay, okay." Li Shimin looked impatient, while the commander of the Imperial Forest Army felt as if he had taken off his armor and helmet.

"It's like a war!" Li Shimin hurriedly put it on, muttering impatiently.

"I've already dressed up, so it's okay now!" After hastily fastening the helmet on, he turned his head and said to the crowd, "Why don't Li Chunfeng hurry up and teach me?"

"Father, be careful!" Li Tai turned and said to Yu Linjun and Li Chunfeng after exhorting him, "You must protect His Majesty!!"

"Disciple obeys!" Li Chunfeng sat down beside Li Shimin solemnly.

"I obey." Several members of the Imperial Forest Army jumped into the carriage, and the rest followed behind.

"Your Majesty, this is the brake. After stepping on it, the two brakes on both sides of the two wheels will lock the wheels. This is the handbrake that must be pulled off after parking...

The rest is the same as riding a horse, except that the horse's reins are tied to the iron rods at both ends, and when turning, where do you need to turn to pull the horse rope on that side..."

"I understand, let me go and try?" Li Shimin seemed to understand, and looked at Li Chunfeng next to him.

"Your Majesty can try it, and I will watch from the sidelines." Li Chunfeng said with a worried face.

"Okay!" Li Shimin let go of the handbrake, shouted 'drive', and shook the horse's reins.
