Great Tang princess

Chapter 112 The Concept of Industry

Li Zhi didn't react to Li Yuechen's salute. At this moment, all his attention was basically on the pair of shoes under her feet.

No way, the main thing is too conspicuous.

Not only the emperor, but also the ministers and foreign envoys didn't realize how amazing it is to put a few wheels under your feet?

Wu Zetian was the first to react and coughed lightly.

Only then did Li Zhi come back to his senses, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, since Chen'er has such filial piety, let's take a look!"

Li Yuechen smiled slightly, swayed his feet, and began to slide around the hall.

When she opened her arms again and passed through the ministers in the middle like a bird, they all reacted and made room for her to play.

Li Yuechen smiled lightly at the ministers' winking behavior, and immediately stopped in the center of the hall.

She leaned forward, raised one leg backwards, and her body began to rotate on the spot in a "T" shape.

The veils hanging on both arms were driven to dance, making her figure look much lighter.

She spun in the center of the hall like a top, then stopped suddenly, and slid around the field with her back.

Every time the rhythm in the hands of the musician changes, her movements can always keep up, and the movements of her limbs are always just right.

The movements of this dance are very different from the current fashion, but they are extremely harmonious.

Coupled with the light gliding of her body, as if she could catch the notes, everyone present couldn't help but focus on her.

When the rhythm of the music reached its climax, her movements suddenly changed again, with two consecutive midair turns and one foot landing.

The moment he landed, his legs opened straight and horizontally, and his body was also lowered, almost touching the ground.

She maintained this posture and easily slid under a desk about a foot above the ground.

Many people present couldn't help shouting: "Cai!"

The moment a piece of music less than five minutes was finished, he sped up a backflip, opened his legs back and forth, and slid to a stop in front of Li Zhi and his wife.

Li Yuechen bowed and saluted: "I wish my parents a happy new year!"

"it is good!!!"

Li Zhi burst out laughing, then stood up and walked down from behind the table, came to Li Yuechen and patted her head.

"As expected of Chen'er, I never imagined that with a wooden wheel under my feet, my body would be so light!"

Wu Zetian also nodded: "Although it's a bit strange, this dancing posture is also beautiful."

The other ministers praised and expressed surprise at the same time.

Li Yuechen also thought about making two more pairs of roller skates for the whole family to play with. Anyway, the square in front of the main hall is covered with stone slabs, and the ground is also very flat, so they can be skated on.

So today's dance performance should be regarded as an advertisement for myself.

……

After the banquet is over, the next is the Chinese New Year holiday, and the next court will be on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Li Yuechen didn't change his shoes, just skating around beside Li Zhi and his wife, and followed them all the way to the Hall of Renshou.

Li Zhi, who had already taken off the crown, let the maid help him take off the crown, and asked curiously: "Chen'er, anyone can control your roller skates freely?"

"This still needs practice, but my parents used to be good at riding and shooting, so they should be able to learn it soon." Li Yuechen laughed.

Li Zhi was obviously interested: "Okay, let those craftsmen make a few more pairs of these shoes. Then, Meiniang, Xianer and I will all learn from you!"

"Okay!" Li Yuechen agreed, "However, there is a small part under the shoe that is more troublesome to make, and it may take longer."

"It's okay, let's do it boldly first!" Li Zhi waved his hands with a smile, "I'll just wait."

Li Yuechen nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will let them make it in a few years!"

……

After resigning, Li Yuechen slid all the way back to Anfu Hall on roller skates, leaving Fulai far behind.

At first he could keep up, but as Li Yuechen skating faster and faster, he was left behind.

After lunch, Shangguan Wan'er played chess with Princess Yiyang in the Linbo Pavilion, and then turned her head to look at the gate from time to time, waiting for Li Yuechen to come back.

Suddenly, a bright red figure rushed in from the gate and headed straight for Linbo Pavilion.

The two chess players and Princess Xuancheng, who was watching from the sidelines, looked up, and saw Li Yuechen gliding on the ground with his back to them, heading straight for them.

The three of them couldn't help but look down at the roller skates on her feet. Some time ago, they had been curious about how this thing worked, and they saw it today.

Li Yuechen, who came in front of them, raised his heels, and the brakes on the toes rubbed against the ground, making her stop just in front of them.

Li Yuechen turned around and smiled lightly: "How is it? I look very light, right?"

Princess Yiyang nodded: "It's more than light? It's like a fairy!"

"Yeah, I was dumbfounded just now!" Princess Xuancheng also looked surprised.

Shangguan Wan'er next to her squatted down curiously, looking at the roller skates on her feet: "Your Highness, I want to play too..."

"Well, I guess you are the only one who can wear these shoes." Li Yuechen nodded, "Then let's have fun, I will teach you!"

Shangguan Wan'er shook her head: "Both Your Highnesses haven't tried it yet, how can I play first, or wait for His Highness to make a new one..."

"It's okay, let's play, we just happened to be watching." Princess Yiyang patted her head.

Princess Xuancheng nodded: "Well, besides, these shoes are too small for us to wear."

After the three Highnesses agreed, Shangguan Wan'er declined again, then nodded and looked forward to it.

Li Yuechen went to change his shoes, and then asked Shangguan Wan'er to sit down and put on the roller skates first.

Zheng Shi next to her was a little worried: "Dare to ask Your Highness, can she control it as freely as His Highness wearing this thing?"

"It's definitely not familiar at first, just teach her." Li Yuechen smiled.

Anyway, as long as you support her, don't let her fall and hurt, this thing is actually not difficult at all.

If you have good talent, you can stabilize it the first time you put it on, and you can glide forward in about half an hour.

Shangguan Wan'er sat on a chair and put on her roller skates, sliding them back and forth.

Because of the relationship between the bearings, the tires are very soulful, and there is no sense of stuttering like a carriage.

It made her a little scared and didn't dare to stand up.

Li Yuechen came to her and grabbed her hands: "Come on, get up!"

Shangguan Wan'er took her hand and stood up slowly, but she was still a little scared, holding her hands tightly.

"Okay, step!" Li Yuechen began to teach her.

Shangguan Wan'er raised her leg: "Your Highness, these shoes are very heavy..."

"It's okay, just get used to it."

Under Li Yuechen's guidance, Shangguan Wan'er was walking on the spot while wearing roller skates, but she almost fell down within two strokes.

Li Yuechen, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, stretched out his arms to wrap her around her waist without letting her fall, and helped her stand still again: "It's okay, come again."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and continued to hold her hand and walked slowly.

Seeing that she gradually found her center of gravity, Li Yuechen let go of one hand to let her continue to adapt.

Then the other hand was slowly released, and after she almost fell down several times but was held by Li Yuechen, she became more courageous and began to raise her legs high.

Li Yuechen saw that she had almost found her center of gravity, so she began to teach her how to slide.

The sense of balance of this thing is actually the same as that of a bicycle. It is just a point, and you will know it after getting used to it slowly.

"Toes open, like mine."

Under Li Yuechen's instruction, Shangguan Wan'er's feet were slightly spread outwards, her left and right legs were pushed outwards slowly, and she was able to slide forward slowly.

"Yes, that's it!"

Li Yuechen followed her to prevent her from falling. In fact, at this point, as long as she got used to it slowly, she would almost slip.

With a master like Li Yuechen teaching beside her, Shangguan Wan'er was able to slide around the courtyard in only half an hour.

There was an excited smile on the face that was a little scared at first, feeling the feeling of the wind blowing on the face when sliding.

Some dissatisfied Shangguan Wan'er had a look of anticipation in her eyes: "Your Highness, how do you slide with your back?"

"It's simple. When sliding forward, you need to open your toes outward. When sliding backward, you only need to open your heel outward." Li Yuechen explained and taught her how to do it.

At the same time, I was thinking about making single-row shoes for fun in the future. In fact, in terms of style, single-row shoes look more handsome.

Especially after the slalom is over, you can stand on your toes and spin quickly with only two front wheels.

But when it comes to dancing, it's still a pair of shoes.

When Li Yuechen was just learning, he saw the back of the double-row shoes and braked fast, and he felt so handsome!

When it was almost dusk, Shangguan Wan'er finally learned to slip backwards. Although she was still very bad at slipping, at least she would not fall easily.

After taking off her roller skates, Shangguan Wan'er was still in place.

"What's wrong?" Princess Yiyang.

"It's okay, it's just a normal reaction for the first time." Li Yuechen smiled. When she played for the first time, she felt like she couldn't walk anymore when she switched back to ordinary shoes.

After getting used to it for a while, Shangguan Wan'er trotted all the way to Li Yuechen: "Your Highness, I still want to play in the future..."

"Well, don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities." Li Yuechen touched her head and took her hand, "Let's go, go have dinner."

The two sisters also expressed that they would try it after making more shoes.

……

The Chinese New Year is still very fast. In the past few days, apart from paying New Year greetings to Master, Li Yuechen will go to the Hall of Renshou to accompany his parents for dinner every morning after practicing.

Li Zhi asked about the roller skates from time to time, as if he couldn't wait to try it.

Li Yuechen told him not to worry, and he would definitely let him play when the time comes.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the Lobby Empire also officially started working. Li Yuechen immediately went to the gold and silver workshop to find Wang Gangdan.

"The bearing, can one be made in a few days at the earliest?"

"Return to Your Highness, one can be made in five days." Wang Gangdan replied.

Li Yuechen suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Five days? How?"

Wang Gangdan explained as follows: "Because His Highness is in great demand, Xiao Lao has been thinking about this matter since he went back. Recently, he came up with a new method."

After listening to his explanation, Li Yuechen finally understood.

It turned out that he had a good friend in the Jiangzuojian, and the two would exchange some technical things when they were free.

After seeing the pedal stirrer made by Li Yuechen, he designed a pedal grinder based on this inspiration.

In the final analysis, it is through the pedal gear transmission to make a frosted stone rotate quickly.

In this way, as long as the outside of the bearing is integrally cast into a thicker ring, a groove can be directly ground in the middle of the inside.

At the same time, a small semicircular opening was made in front of an iron rod with a diameter of one centimeter, and a semicircular opening was made on the base at the same time.

Then cut off a bit of the thin iron rod that is about to be burnt with pliers, put it on the base while it is cooling, and press it with a small iron rod.

In this way, an irregular small iron ball can be directly produced, and it can be shaped with a little polishing.

Every time it is polished, it passes through a wooden board with a small hole. If it can just pass through, the size will be no problem...

Using this method, as long as there is another apprentice to assist, three or four small iron balls can be made in a day...

After listening to Wang Gangdan's description, Li Yuechen couldn't help being surprised in his heart. He never thought that such an old craftsman who had never read a book could think of the simplest industrialization process.

Although this is still manual work in essence, it already has a hint of industrialization concept-mass production!
"Okay!" Li Yuechen nodded, "Your method still has a lot of potential for development. You can continue to improve, and every time you improve, I will give you a big reward!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your love!" Wang Gangdan was also very excited.

He likes to study some exquisite gadgets on weekdays, but they don't get much attention. Even if he made a gyro sachet, the most he can say is "good" and it's gone.

And now that Her Royal Highness is willing to support it, it also makes him feel that there are still people who are willing to appreciate the things he has made.

……

After walking out of the gold and silver workshop, Li Yuechen couldn't help but secretly some soil, okay!Even the concept of industry has come out. It seems that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.

In this way, one bearing in five days, eight bearings can be made in forty days, exactly a pair of roller skates.

If there are no accidents, Dad will be able to play with this thing in February.

After thinking about it, Li Yuechen first went to the craftsman supervisor, found the craftsman who was in charge of the production last time, and told them that he would make a pair of roller skates next.

Hearing that it was made for a sage, the craftsmen cheered up and promised to complete the task with serious faces.

Then he called the tailor in charge of making shoes from the Shangyi Bureau, told them how big Li Zhi's feet were, and immediately put himself into intense production.

After explaining the matter, I returned to Anfu Hall, and just sat down to rest, Fulai ran over with a smile on his face: "Your Highness, after hearing that many people went back, I asked my craftsmen to try to make the roller skates, and all of them died. It was not easy to fall!"

When he spoke, there was a gloating smile on his face.

Li Yuechen also smiled: "Normal, it's just like that if you don't know how to play. But I can teach them in the future, and let them buy from me!"

　Thanks to the host of [CooIStar2] for the reward! ! !

　　Thanks to [Jisha Wutong] for the reward of 1500 starting coins!
