Li Shimin

Chapter 887 Car = Plowing God!

And beside the field, the farmers watching, as well as Cui Mi and Li Chenglu, all stared wide-eyed and full of regret.

After a long while of silence, everyone came back to their senses. Looking at the iron car that was flying away with black smoke in the distance, their whole bodies were trembling!

"It's moving, this iron car is really moving!"

"There's no need for a cow or a horse to push it behind, and it actually moves!"

"It's really an artifact!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is wise, the craftsman Mohou and all those who ruled Mo are really powerful..."

Suddenly, a few old farmers noticed something, pointed at the field and shouted.

"Look, guys, this big car can turn over!"

"Turn the ground?"

"hiss……"

When all the farmers saw the newly dug up soil in the field, they all became excited again.

Immediately, one by one no longer cared about Li Xuan's order, they jumped off the field, knelt on the ground, and stretched their hands under the newly turned upside down.

"How deep?"

"At least one foot deep!"

"Haha, it's a magic car, it's a magic car, it's my fortune to have such a proprietor, and my fortune in the Tang Dynasty!"

"The labor of such a car can be equal to the power of twenty old cattle, and it can even save more than 20 young and strong..."

"woo woo woo woo……"

Talking, talking, all the elderly households knelt directly on the land that had just been plowed, crying loudly.

Around, the farmers who did not cry aloud were also full of excitement.

On the road, Cui Mi, Ziyun, and the three sisters of the Wu family looked at Li Xuan in the distance in the 'doo' car with admiration on their faces.

As for the boys Li Chenglu and Di Renjie, they looked eager to try.

Soon, less than a cup of tea.

The car, under Li Xuan's control, turned a corner in the distant field, and ran back again.

After the car stopped making noise, Li Xuan then pulled a hand lever and jumped off the car.

Seeing this, Cui Mi, Li Chenglu and others immediately surrounded him.

All of them touched the miraculous car in front of them curiously.

It's just that, apart from the coldness and hardness, there is no feeling.

And, don't move!
"Sanlang, this fetish named car, can it really move by itself?"

Cui Mi asked expectantly.

"As long as you feed it coal, it will move by itself!" Li Xuan replied.

"Carbon?"

Cui Mi asked with a strange face.

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly.

Around, all the farmers who heard this also suddenly realized.

Sure enough, this huge iron car also needs to eat to move.

"Oh, that light touch, it's hot!"

Suddenly, Li Xuan saw two figures secretly climbed onto the cart, and reached out to touch them, so he couldn't help reminding them.

The steam oven that was just extinguished, if you put your hand on it, it can completely scald a layer of skin.

But upon hearing Li Xuan's words, Li Chenglu and Di Renjie quickly withdrew their hands back and laughed.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty..."

At this moment, a group of farmers also walked over boldly, looking at Li Xuan excitedly,

Seeing this, Li Xuan quickly said: "This car is an artifact made by the king of Han and the craftsman Mohou with a group of ink rulers who worked hard for six years. They and others know more than this king. So if you have any questions, you can ask them.

However, regarding craftsmanship and some secret recipes, you should not ask at will! "

"Thank you king!"

All the farmers were overjoyed.

But upon hearing Li Xuan's words, Le Tai, Li Yuanjia and the others were completely speechless.

It's not that you don't know anything about the behavior of operating a car proficiently just now, and even the entire manufacturing process of a car cannot be separated from your guidance.

However, after Li Xuan finished speaking, Letai, Li Yuanjia and others were already surrounded by a group of village households, among them were some Jinwang officials, scholars, and even some personal guards in the village, all of whom were full of curiosity. ask a question.

They never expected that the objects developed by King Han, the craftsman Mohou and others would be so miraculous!

In particular, a car that can plow such a wide and deep field at one time is definitely a treasure of the Tang Dynasty!

After Li Xuan stood by and watched for a while, he smiled faintly, and left with Cui Mi and others.

Soon, after asking for an hour.

All the guards, under Li Chenglu's order, quickly ran to the charcoal house in the distance!
Then, a cart of charcoal was pulled over.

As Li Chenglu and Li Yuanjia got into the front of the car, Di Renjie, Le Tai and others climbed into the car.

The crowd around the car backed away in unison.

Soon, with a puff of black smoke rising and a 'beep' sound from the rear of the car, the whole car shook and began to move forward slowly.

"Chenglu, this disc is the steering wheel of the car. If you turn it to the left, the car will turn left; if you turn the disc to the right, the car will turn right; This disc is square!

Only the steel plate under the right foot is the brake pad, Brother Wang called it the brake pad, anyway, as long as you step on it, the whole car will stop and can't move anymore..."

Following Li Yuanjia's teaching and demonstration, the huge car began to twist left and right in the endless fields.

A group of guards and farmers running behind the car on both sides looked excited.

For two full days, the 'beep' sound in Li's Village never stopped.

Even if sometimes, the car broke down in place, Letai and Li Yuanjia and other Mohists were repairing it with distressed faces, and the excitement in the eyes of the surrounding guards and Lijiazhuang farmers did not go away.

In this way, another ten days passed.

Rumors about the car finally began to spread to Chang'an City, and even spread throughout the entire Guanzhong area.

In the Li Family Manor of His Royal Highness King Jin, another fetish was created.

You can plow the fields by yourself without being pulled by oxen and horses, let alone by people.

The most important thing is that this kind of artifact can plow a hundred acres of land in one day!
Immediately, the entire Guanzhong land began to be bustling again.

When the news reached the palace, Li Shimin's eyes widened even more, full of disbelief.

"Li Wei, can you send someone to Lijiazhuang to check, Xuanba really created this kind of fetish?"

"Your Majesty, in the past two days, this rumor has been spread throughout the entire Guanzhong area. Therefore, I sent someone to Lijiazhuang to inquire. Unexpectedly, what Lijiazhuang's personal guards said, there is actually such a thing.

Very early on, the captain sent by the last general also said that they saw a steel cart the size of a house running around in the fields of Lijiazhuang! "

Li Wei hurriedly reported.

"What, there is such a thing?" Li Shimin was surprised.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, great joy!"

At this time, several old voices came in from outside the door.

Li Wei turned sideways quickly, and Li Shimin saw that Changsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Li Xiaogong, and even Fang Xuanling, who was ill at home, were sitting in a wheelchair wearing a thick padded coat The servant pushed in.

As soon as he came in, Cheng Zhijie grinned and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Jin has created another incredible fetish. Would you like to take a look at it together?"

"Your Majesty, this fetish created by His Royal Highness King Jin can increase my Great Tang's fertile land dozens of times again, and it is a treasure related to my Great Tang Sheji!"

"His Majesty……"

"Okay, okay, you are at this age, so don't make fun of me in front of me!"

Li Shimin waved his hands impatiently, and said directly: "I just heard Li Wei report this matter, and I am going to take a look!"

"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to go with His Majesty!"

"Exactly, the old minister is willing to go with His Majesty to watch the fetish that is related to our Great Tang Jiangshan community!"

Li Xiaogong and Changsun Wuji quickly saluted and said.

"Let's go together!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

……

After half an hour.

A luxury convoy came to the gate of Lijiazhuang.

The Jin Prince's personal guard guarding the door stepped forward to inquire, and then his face changed drastically. He shouted for Tongze to open the door, and at the same time ran into Li's Village.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty is coming!"

"Wait here to watch by yourself, and I will go to greet you!"

On the balcony on the third floor of the other courtyard, Li Xuan sighed helplessly, put down his clairvoyance, gave instructions to Cui Mi and other wives and concubines, and went downstairs.

Regarding this, Cui Mi and the others just nodded slightly, without moving the clairvoyance in their hands.

And this time, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and the others couldn't wait to come in from the gate of Lijiazhuang, and came to the cement road beside the field.

Sure enough, they saw a large cart made entirely of steel, beeping black smoke, moving around in the field.

What's even more miraculous is that, except for a few boys sitting on the cart, there were no cows, horses, or young people pulling it, so it ran around in the fields by itself.

Moreover, as long as the steel cart passes by, a ten-foot-wide dirt will be turned out of the field!

"Can you really move around by yourself?"

"God!"

"Your Majesty, when this fetish is passed by, the land ten feet wide will be plowed once. This fetish will definitely make my Tang Dynasty stronger again!"

At this moment, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others, who didn't know how much influence this steel cart would have on the later generations of the Tang Dynasty, were already very excited when they saw it.

Even, if it weren't for this moment, the steel cart was hundreds of steps away from them, and they might have rushed up to stop the steel cart and take a closer look.

But this time, the few people seemed to see a peerless fairy. Everyone's eyes had already been glued to the big steel car body, and they couldn't move a single step.

He didn't even notice Li Xuan's arrival.

"Your Majesty, is this thing fun?"

Li Xuan stood aside for a while, and had to interrupt the obsessive state of Li Shimin, Li Xiaogong and others.

"Fun!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded subconsciously.

Immediately, he sensed something was wrong, and quickly turned his head to look aside.

Sure enough, he saw a face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, looking at him.

"Xuanba, is this fetish called a car?"

"Exactly!"

"Why can you walk around by yourself without being pulled by a cow or horse or pushed by someone?"

"Because this car is equipped with a steam engine, the power generated is enough to allow such a large iron car to move around by itself, and even plow the land!"

"Steam engine?"

"Well, it's the steam engine installed on the big steel ship, but the steam engine on this car has been modified to make it much smaller!"

"So, do you want to burn coal too?"

"Burn! Those boys standing behind the car are just burning coal, and they can't walk without burning it!"

"I see, this car can really plow hundreds of acres of land every day?"

"I don't know!"

"I don't know?"

"In the past few days, these boys in the village have only cared about playing. Besides, the autumn harvest has just been completed, and there is no need to cultivate, so no one is going to experiment!"

"Bastard!"

With a cry of grief and anger on his face, Li Shimin asked with a distressed expression: "Such a precious object, you just let these boys toss it at will? What if it breaks?"

"If it's broken, fix it. Anyway, there are many moxie masters who can repair cars in the village!"

Li Xuan looked indifferent, "Besides, Your Majesty also misunderstood, this is not to let these boys toss around at will, but to let them learn how to drive a car!"

"Learning to drive a car?"

Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and the others looked surprised again.

"That's right! Driving a car is the same as driving a horse-drawn carriage. You need to learn. Moreover, just one car is not enough. In a few days, Le Tai, Yuan Jia and others can improve this car again. Then we can continue to manufacture cars!" Li Xuan explained.

Hearing this, the eyes of Li Shimin and Cheng Zhijie couldn't help but light up.

"So, I wonder if Xuanba can also make a car for me?"

"You can!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, "But this kind of car is very cumbersome to manufacture, and it's all made of fine steel, so your majesty and you need to pay some money!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say, how much is a car like this!"

"Just [-] guan for one car!"

"Fifty thousand?"

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded again, "If Your Majesty and you have nearby fields, you can exchange them for Li Family Manor, or you can exchange them with fields or wasteland!"

"What does Xuanba want the fields for?"

"With this kind of machine, the farmers in my Li family village can cultivate more fields. Moreover, Letai, Yuanjia and a group of Mohist practitioners have worked hard for six years to create this magical thing. There must be a reward!"

"Very good!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and the others nodded subconsciously.

"For this great achievement, I will definitely reward them!"

"Your Majesty will reward them again after getting these cars and starting to promote them all over the country. In this way, all the officials and common people of the Tang Dynasty will be convinced!"

"Can!"

Li Shimin naturally understood the meaning of Li Xuan's words.

Then, he looked at the car still wandering in the distance.

"Xuan Ba, why don't you call this car over and let me watch it?"

"Exactly! Your Royal Highness, my old Cheng also wants to try it. What's the difference between driving an iron car and driving a horse-drawn carriage?"

"Extremely, extremely..."

Seeing the expectant eyes of Cheng Zhijie, Li Xiaogong and other veterans, Li Xuan didn't let these veterans wait any longer, and directly ordered the guards beside him to call over the car from a distance.
