The strongest engineering student in ancient times

At the gate of the county seat of Shuixi County, three low-key carriages were parked there. They were secretly opening the curtains in the carriages to watch, wanting to see if there was anything unusual. They did not dare to enter the city rashly, for fear of being caught in some trap. generally.

However, the people in Shuixi County were all busy, and no one paid attention to the three carriages parked at the gate of the city.

in the carriage.

It was the sixth prince and General Qian. The emperor was worried that the sixth prince would come alone, so he asked the former general to follow. Besides, there were several fifth-rank servants in the carriage.

They looked at the people outside and didn't see anything wrong. It really didn't look like a conspiracy by the Xida army.

General Qian suggested:

"My lord, why don't we go in directly, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual, there shouldn't be any traps."

The other officials were about to nod their heads, when suddenly, a very loud and strange sound came from far and near, they all quickly opened the curtains of the car, and saw two tricycles full of food and bedding entering the city, and the people watched When I got to the tricycle, I just glanced at it enviously, and then continued with my work.

On the contrary, the officials from the capital all stared round, completely unable to believe what they saw just now.

What the hell is that? How could it be three wheels? Not only would it make such a loud noise, but the point is that there is no horse or cow pulling it. How could it run so fast? They all found that it seemed to be wood. made!

They couldn't come back to their senses for a long time, and looked at each other behind the curtain, not knowing what to say.

Because they don't know the existence of tricycles at all, and they are all court ministers, so how dare they speak casually, so as not to lose face.

At this time, the sixth prince was still too curious, so he said to Qiu Shilang, who was about 27 or [-] years old:

"Qiu Shilang, why don't you go and ask the people here, what is it that entered the city gate just now? The people here don't seem to be strange, so they should know something."

Qiu Shilang looks ordinary. After putting on ordinary clothes and putting them in the crowd, no one will notice his existence.

Qiu Shilang was actually a little apprehensive in his heart, but thinking that this was the sixth prince's order, he just swallowed silently and walked down with a feeling of apprehension.

The others watched Qiu Shilang walk slowly to the small stall at the gate of the city in the carriage. The people who were weaving bamboo baskets asked politely:

"My aunt, just now I saw two strange things with three wheels carrying a lot of things, so, is that something new?"

The basket weaving woman glanced at Qiu Shilang, then at the three carriages parked not far away, and immediately asked:

"Are you from out of town?"

Qiu Shilang's face tightened, and he was very worried. He had tried his best to imitate the accent here, but why was he discovered? Could it be that there is really some trap waiting for him here?

Just when Qiu Shilang was at a loss, the woman smiled and said:

"There are no locals who don't know about tricycles. Our county magistrate specially bought this tricycle from Brother Bai in Xibei Village. Do you know about tricycles? It's a three-wheeled vehicle that can run on its own and carry a lot of people and things. You I don’t know yet. These days our county is rebuilding the houses that were burned down by the Xida army. It’s very fast to use those tricycles to transport wood and bricks. Our county magistrate also said that when the reconstruction is completed, tricycles will be arranged for our county For the commute to Shuixi County, you only need one penny to take a tricycle to Shuixi County once, which is very convenient."

Seeing the woman's proud face, Qiu Shilang almost thought that he had gone to the wrong place. Is this really a place that just went through a war?

Why do the people only have happiness and ease on their faces, but no feeling of suffering at all.

He quickly asked:

"So was it really attacked by the Xida army? Has the city gate been breached?"

Seeing this, the woman was very dissatisfied and said:

"How can our Shuixi County be breached? Our Shuixi County is the only county in Shuixi County that guards the city gate, and our county magistrate led the Weijia Gang to beat the crap out of the Xida Army and took back Shuixi County. , and helped take back the other four counties, you have heard that the Xida army is calling, how could you not know about our Shuixi County taking back Shuixi County!"

This aunt is obviously not happy, Shuixi County is so powerful, it should have been spread in the surrounding counties long ago!

Qiu Shilang was a little embarrassed, didn't know how to answer, and was about to go back, but suddenly saw Xiao Yunuan riding out of the city gate on a moped, and the two brothers Xiao Yuhua behind him kept calling for his sister to slow down.

Qiu Shilang saw that the three people did not move at all, and the wooden frame wheels on the front and rear wheels were passing in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but widen again.

Qiu Shilang hurriedly looked at the aunt and asked:

"This, what is it?"

Qiu Shilang strongly suspected that he had come to some strange place.

The aunt gave Qiu Shilang a look of contempt and said:

"What's the surprise? It's just a moped. You can walk by yourself without exerting yourself. It's very convenient. If it doesn't cost 80 taels, I would like to buy it. But I heard that the price of bicycles seems to be reduced. It only costs 15 taels." Well, that boy in my family is studying hard, and he said that he was admitted as a scholar and asked us to buy him one, it looks really good."

Qiu Shilang was not surprised to see this woman at all, and it seemed to be a common appearance, and he didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at the moment.

Isn't this just a remote frontier? Why did everything here make him think that he was in some incredible place!

When Qiu Shilang returned to the carriage, the Sixth Prince and General Qian couldn't help but quickly asked Qiu Shilang if he had asked clearly what those three such small wooden frames for the front and rear wheels passed by just now.

When Qiu Shilang said their names, they were at a loss, and they had never heard of tricycles, mopeds, or bicycles.What the hell is this!

General Qian hurriedly said:

"Sixth Prince, there are strange things everywhere in this place, we must be cautious..."

However, the sixth prince interrupted General Qian and said:

"Let's go. There should be no traps. Along the way, other places are obviously the same as before, but Shuixi County has seen such a big change. This just proves that the words of the county magistrate here should not be false."

General Qian and Qiu Shilang heard the words, so they had no choice but to stop talking, but let the carriage drive slowly into the city.

When they came all the way to the county government office, they saw tricycles passing by them several times, but none of the common people felt that something was wrong.

The sixth prince was amazed, this tricycle was built by some capable person, and it was so easily accepted by the common people, and seeing the objects planted on the back of the tricycle that could only be carried by three cars, he could imagine, How much manpower and material resources can be saved by using this, and the speed is two or three times faster, so it must be very practical.

General Qian, Qiu Shilang and others also felt in their hearts that Shuixi County really surprised them.

But when they came to the county government office, they found something even more surprising to them.

When the carriage stopped suddenly, they could hear the noise coming from outside. When they opened the curtain, they saw that many people were discussing something fiercely, and they seemed to be fighting for something.The sixth prince and his party couldn't understand at all. Aren't these people the most afraid of the county government office? How dare they make such a loud noise at the gate of the county government office!
