Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

When the news reached Chu Ze's ears, he couldn't help but feel proud secretly.

"Hmph, it's time for those ignorant people to stop now!" He murmured in his heart: "It's just a ride, and it has to make people jump all over the place. What's the point?"

But after thinking about it, Chu Ze was a little worried again.

"If this bicycle is too restrictive, will it affect sales? If fewer and fewer people ride it, wouldn't it be worth the loss?"

He secretly thought that if he wanted to get the best of both worlds, he would have to come up with some clever tricks.

"I got it!" Chu Ze suddenly had an idea and slapped his thigh and said, "Why not take this opportunity to hold a cycling competition? On the one hand, it can let those enthusiasts have a good time, and on the other hand, it can also be used as an opportunity to promote the performance and quality of bicycles and increase sales!"

Thinking of this, he immediately summoned Yang Cai, Li Xing and others to explain his plan.

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Wonderful, Your Majesty! Holding a competition is such a brilliant idea!" Yang Cai was so excited that he slapped his thigh.

"That's right! Those cyclists are all eager to try! If they can show their skills in the competition, their faces will be bright!" Li Xing also looked excited.

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Then it's settled! You go and make arrangements right away. Just say that the palace is going to hold a grand bicycle race, and riders from all over the city are welcome to participate!"

"As for the prize, just get a few of the latest sports bikes, plus some silver rewards!"

"Yes!" Everyone followed the order and left.

Once the news was released, it immediately caused a commotion in Fengyang City.

The young men on bicycles jumped up with excitement.

"Haha, I finally have a chance to show off my skills! I have to get first place this time!"

"That's right! When the time comes, I will ride the latest sports bike under the spotlight. It will look so impressive!"

"The girls won't look at us differently then? Hehe!"

In the streets and alleys, everyone was talking about this grand game.

Although the common people did not participate in the competition, they were eager to try and join in the fun.

"Oh, this is my first time seeing a bicycle race! I wonder what unique skills those riders will have then?"

"Isn't that right! I see those young guys riding very fast when they are practicing. I guess when it comes time to compete, that speed, hey! It must be the same as the wind!"

Everyone was guessing word by word, and everyone was full of expectations for the game.

While Chu Ze was excited about the upcoming cycling competition, he was also thinking about how to further generate income.

He had an idea and thought that when people ride bicycles in future generations, everyone will wear helmets, elbow pads, knee pads and other protective gear. This will not only protect the safety of the rider, but also allow businesses to make money.

"Yes!" Chu Ze slapped the table and said to himself with bright eyes: "Why not take this opportunity to promote various protective gears? Firstly, it can show the benevolence of the court, and secondly, it can also Generating revenue for the national treasury is really killing two birds with one stone!”

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was indescribable, and he immediately excitedly summoned Yang Cai, Li Xing and other confidants. "Everyone, I have another plan, what do you think?" Chu Ze asked with a smile.

Yang Cai and Li Xing looked at each other, not knowing why, and hurriedly asked: "What clever plan does the prince have? Please tell me clearly."

Chu Ze cleared his throat and said meaningfully: "Have you ever seen that soldiers on horseback wear some armor and helmets?"

"Of course I've seen it before." Yang Cai nodded and said, "That's to defend yourself against enemies and protect your own safety."

"Not bad." Chu Ze pointed at Yang Cai and said approvingly: "When riding a bicycle, although you don't have to go into battle to kill the enemy, there is no guarantee that accidents will not happen. If you fall and bump, don't you also need some protection?"

Li Xing suddenly understood, clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! If you ride with protective gear, you will be able to ride with more peace of mind and have more fun!"

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "So, why don't we take this opportunity to produce and promote protective gear? When the competition comes, all the players will use it, wouldn't it be a big selling point?"

Yang Cai also became excited and nodded in agreement: "Wonderful, Your Majesty! If we set a proper price then, I'm afraid the sales will rise sharply! This protective gear may not be any worse than making money from a bicycle!"

"That's right!" Chu Ze said with excitement: "You guys, go and make arrangements now! Find those smart craftsmen and rush to make some protective gear according to my design drawings! Be sure to make it before the competition! "

"Yes!" Everyone took the order and left, all of them very motivated.

Chu Ze looked at their backs and thought smugly: "Humph, I'm really becoming more and more talented as a shop owner! Now it's not just cars that can make money, but also accessories that can make a fortune! Look! I don’t want to put all the money of Ming Dynasty’s wealthy children and wealthy people into my pockets!”

He crossed his legs triumphantly, happily thinking about the situation of making money every day.

...

One day later, the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry produced several new sets of protective gear.

There are helmets, elbow pads, knee pads, palm pads, etc., all made of the above-mentioned high-quality leather and fabrics. They are light, breathable, and extremely elastic, making them very comfortable to wear.

Chu Ze played with a helmet and couldn't put it down and praised it: "Good guy, this workmanship is better than what I have seen in later generations! The leather is flexible and it is reinforced with cotton pads. It is sure to make riders unable to put it down!"

Yang Cai was holding a pair of elbow pads at the side and was full of praise: "That's right! When you wear this protective gear on your body, you will feel more confident when riding a bike, and you can ride more freely!"

"That's natural!" Chu Ze raised his eyebrows proudly and said: "With this magical weapon at your side, are you still afraid of breaking your head and bleeding? You are safe and have more fun riding, but are you worried about not being able to sell it?"

Li Xing also said eagerly: "How about we take out a few sets to try out first? Let the common people have a try. By then, won't the people who buy them have passed the threshold?"

"Okay! I'll do as you say!" Chu Ze waved his hand and ordered: "Tomorrow morning, you will take these sets of samples to the busiest streets in the city and ride your bicycles through the streets!"

"Yes!" Yang Cai and Li Xing agreed happily.

Early the next morning, a rather strange scene appeared on the busiest East Street and West Street in Fengyang City.

Yang Cai and Li Xing were seen riding the latest sports bikes, shuttling back and forth on the street, attracting countless people to stop and watch.

What was different from the past was that both of them were wearing brand new protective gear, which was shiny and eye-catching.

"Oh my god, what is this? Why are you riding a bike and dressing up like you are going to battle to kill the enemy?" (End of Chapter)
