Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 892 Riding a Bicycle (One More)
"Sweet zongzi or salty zongzi...buy both and see which one suits your taste better, so why not just eat whichever you like?" Selina's answer was unexpected.

"You're right. Everyone has different tastes. It's just that glutinous rice is hard to digest. Ordinary people will feel bloated after eating one or two. It's better to choose the stuffing you like." Li Jinde said.

Selina picked out a dumpling stuffed with ham, but when she got it, she didn't know where to start.Ruo Ye was tied up with a rope, and the shape of the zongzi seemed strange to her, a food she had never seen before.

"It should be like this." Li Jinde had no choice but to demonstrate to Selina with his own zongzi.

"It's so sticky..." When Selina took apart the Ruo Ye, she felt very sticky because the glutinous rice spilled onto the Ruo Ye.

"Why is this thing so sticky!" A woman next to Li Jinde and Selina shouted.

"Grandma, don't make such a fuss, okay, this is glutinous rice, of course it is sticky!" said a man.

"I haven't eaten it before, so I don't know what's so strange about glutinous rice, can't I be surprised?"

"Okay, auntie, what you said is right."

Li Jinde and Sarina looked at the noisy man and woman, and found that the man was wearing a brocade jacket with narrow sleeves, energetic, and looked like a family boy. Although the woman was wearing a long skirt, she had a long breath, as if Physical fitness is also very good.

The men and women next to them also saw the wonderful combination of Li Jinde and Selina.

"What kind of missionary are you from?" The woman found Selina and asked, holding the newly opened zongzi.

Selina couldn't understand the other party's words, so she looked at Li Jinde for help.

"This is indeed a member of the British Mission. I am Li Jinde from Fuzhou. I don't know what to call you?"

"My name is Goya," said the woman.

"Yu Cheng." The man said.

"Li Jinde? Are you the businessman who traveled thousands of miles to the West for trade? I read it in newspapers, and people in our military lecture hall said that you are brave and rich. You are simply a representative of the new businessman!" Goya Shout out like meeting a celebrity.

"No matter what, I just wanted to take an adventure on a whim, and I only came back if I was lucky. If I was not lucky, I might confess to Xiyang." Li Jinde said quickly.

He heard Goya say that the Army Lecture Hall is a military academy for training army officers and a talent reserve for the military department. Does such an important place know his story?

Moreover, he saw Yu Cheng beside Goya looking like he wanted to kill him. If he didn't clarify quickly, he might be beaten to death by Yu Cheng after Goya left.

Seeing Goya's admiration for Li Jinde, Selina felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

"What is this?" Li Jinde noticed the bicycle beside Yu Cheng, he had never seen such a strange item.

"The limited production bicycle in Beijing!" Yu Cheng said proudly.

Although he is not as rich as Li Jinde, bicycles cannot be bought with money.

"It turns out that this is a bicycle! I heard that there is such a product in the north in the south, and I am trying to mass-produce it. There are already several businessmen bidding for the distribution rights of this product." Li Jinde said.

"Mass production is a matter of time, but bicycles will still be a rare thing for at least a few years." Yu Cheng said unconvinced.

If the bicycle starts to be mass-produced, the value of the bicycle will naturally drop.

"Yes, owning a bicycle now is a symbol of wealth and power." Li Jinde sighed, at least he couldn't get a bicycle.

"A strange thing with two wheels? What is it used for?" Selina saw the bicycle and was puzzled about its purpose.

When she came to China this time, she felt that there were too many novel things.

"Riding a bicycle is like riding a horse. It is much faster than walking." Li Jinde has heard of the existence of bicycles.

"There are only two wheels, won't it fall down?" Selina asked curiously.

"As long as you learn to keep your balance, you will never fall down. Human beings are the most amazing existence in nature." Yu Cheng said.

"Can I have a try?" Selina asked, pointing to the bicycle.

"It's possible... But if you don't know how to ride a bicycle, you need to learn it now... I will support the back seat of the pushcart to prevent you from falling down. You can find a sense of balance." Yu Cheng said.

Because there are still very few people who can ride bicycles, in order to reduce the difficulty, the first batch of bicycles produced are not high, even if Selina rides them, it will not be a problem.

"Smelly Yu Cheng..." Seeing that Yu Cheng was going to teach Sarina how to ride a bicycle, Goya bit the zongzi in his hand.

It seems that sister Da Yuer needs to ask her some advice after she comes back.Goya thought to himself.

Yu Cheng didn't know that he would be even more unlucky, but he was happy to teach others to ride a bicycle.In men's minds, a bicycle is a bigger toy, and teaching others is like sharing one's own toy.

"It seems a little difficult..." After Selina got on the bicycle, she swayed and moved forward with difficulty, while Yu Cheng supported the back seat and pushed the bicycle slowly.

"Savvy is really good!" Yu Cheng was amazed at the opponent's sense of balance, if it were an ordinary person, he might fall down when he just got on the bicycle.

"Excellent." Li Jinde followed, and also felt that Sarina's sense of balance was very good. Anyone who has never ridden a bicycle will feel how difficult it is to be able to balance two wheels during exercise, but the human body can do it!

"I seem to feel something..." Selina's speed gradually increased.

Yu Cheng behind had actually let go of his hand holding the back seat.

The rice dumpling stand and some residents gathered on the embankment looked curiously at the woman from the Western Mission riding a bicycle before the dragon boat race started.Bicycles are a new thing, and they are expensive, almost equivalent to later cars. Before they can be produced on an assembly line, they are not something ordinary people can buy.

Selina rode a circle on the same spot, and she was a little excited at first, but when she came back, she saw Yu Cheng standing there, and suddenly realized that she had no one to support the back seat, she panicked, and the bicycle swayed from side to side.

"Oops!" Selina exclaimed, and fell down, knocking down Li Jinde next to her.

The bicycle also fell down, and the wheel of the front wheel flew out, and fell to the ground after spinning a few times on the ground.

"My car!" Yu Cheng exclaimed.This time there was no scratches, the wheels simply flew out.

How come his bicycle will be injured once as long as he has a relationship with a woman!

"It deserves it, let's see if the person is okay." Goya said.
