I bring the system to tease Shihuang to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 176 Bicycles

The matter of Mr. Zhao leaving the palace was put on hold for the time being.

She still goes back and forth between the royal palace and the Naishi Mansion every day.

Just after the new year, everything is in a leisurely start.

On the contrary, there is a popular saying in Xianyang privately.

It is said that it is best for a girl to wait until she is sixteen or seventeen before getting married.

In this way, the children born in the future will be healthy and smart.

This is exactly what Zhao Jun revealed to Liu Ji two days ago and asked him to promote it.

In short, people at this time are more superstitious, especially when it comes to offspring.

Many people believed this rumor, at least it was a little help to those young girls.

Zhao Jun, who had been leisurely for two days, suddenly saw a box of things when he was tidying up his room.

She slapped her head, only then did she realize that she really forgot something.

The box contained the rubber she had bought from Wu Zhiluo.

Didn't they agree to use these rubbers to try to make a bicycle?

It just so happens that there is nothing to do during this time, so I hurried to find Juzi to study it together.

Thinking of this, she quickly came to the Mojia Workshop.

Everyone in the yard was still doing their own things in an orderly manner.

Juzi was not in the courtyard, but seemed to be in his workshop.

Zhao Jun came to the door familiarly and knocked lightly.

It took a while before there was any movement from the door.

"who is it."

Juzi opened the door and saw that Zhao Jun was smiling and excited.

"My lord, it's just in time for you to come. Come and take a look at the one I made recently."

Juzi led Zhao Jun into the door while talking.

In fact, when Juzi opened the door just now, she felt something was wrong.

She came to this workshop a lot before, why does it feel like the temperature inside is so high today.

She could feel it standing at the door.

It feels even worse when I walk in now.

No wonder Juzi sweated so much today.

It wasn't until Zhao Jun walked inside that he realized where the heat source came from.

"You burn iron in the house?"

Zhao Jun stared at the shrunken bronze pot in astonishment.

As well as the iron blocks inside and the coals burning below.

"Didn't your lord tell me about the purification of pig iron before, and burn it with constant high temperature."

"It's not convenient for me to keep doing experiments in iron smelting places outside the city, so I made a small experiment site in my house."

"This has been firing non-stop for several days, and it finally has a little effect."

Juzi said excitedly.

Zhao Jun secretly glanced over there.

It is indeed a 'little' effect.

She withdrew her gaze, covered her mouth lightly, and quickly changed the subject.

"Ahem, that's it. I'm looking for you today for something else."

"I'm going to research another good thing. If you are interested, come and help."

Zhao Jun raised his eyebrows and said seductively.

"Of course, adults are going to make some interesting inventions."

Juzi's attention was quickly attracted by the new idea brought by Zhao Jun.

The main reason is that his current research on high-temperature burning iron only needs to add coal to it at regular intervals.

Before the iron turned into molten iron, he couldn't do it even if he wanted to.

Zhao Jun handed the rubber glove he brought over to Juzi.

"This material is called rubber. What I want to make now is called a bicycle. Let me describe its general appearance to you first."

The structure of the bicycle is not complicated, and Juzi quickly understood it when she said it.

"The power of this bicycle comes from the power of two people's feet, right?"

Juzi asked.

"That's right, otherwise why would it be called a bicycle?"

"The structure of this kind of car should not be complicated, so what does it have to do with this kind of rubber?"

Juzi quickly understood the structure of a bicycle, which was much simpler than a large carriage.

But he didn't understand what part of the bicycle this rubber was going to be used for.

"Listen, this rubber is used on the front and rear wheels of the bicycle."

"Aren't all the wheels nowadays made of rounded wood?"

"But the wheels of this bicycle are made of this rubber."

"Rubber wheels are less likely to bump and are more comfortable."

Zhao Jun took the rubber and carefully explained the structure of the bicycle wheel to him.

"I understand, this rubber material is really amazing, I just pulled it hard and it didn't break."

Juzi stroked the piece of rubber with great interest.

"Yes, the material is really good."

"And then the wheels are like this, preferably with two turns inside and outside, and the inside can be filled with enough air."

"And now there is another problem. I still have a lot of these rubber gloves, but they may need to be dismantled and refitted into the shape required by the wheel."

The two discussed for a while in the workshop.

From the cutting and splicing of rubber to the composition of the car body and the installation and removal of brakes, etc.

In the next few days, Zhao Jun went back and forth between the Mohist workshops, making bicycles with Juzi non-stop.

By the time the toughest part of the wheel is done, the rest is basically fine.

Two days later, the ancient version of the improved bicycle was manufactured.

Zhao Jun was quite satisfied looking at the bicycles parked in the courtyard of the Mo family.

About the same size as a modern bicycle.

The whole body is made of black, and the top is also very delicately painted with red lines, which looks very good-looking.

The two wheels are made of rubber, which looks good to ride.

The car was parked properly in the middle of the yard, Zhao Junju stood in front of him and watched motionlessly.

Many craftsmen in the Mohist workshop nearby couldn't help looking at this thing.

"My lord, it looks like you're done, but it can be ridden, only two wheels will fall down."

Juzi couldn't help but said worriedly.

"I'll try riding on it first."

After all, before Zhao Jun stopped him, he had already ridden on it.

Because the shape and seat of the bicycle are made according to Zhao Jun's figure.

Therefore, when a tall man sits on it, the bicycle looks very small.

Putting the two together feels out of place.

Zhao Jun wanted to stop it but it was too late, so let Juzi try.

Anyway, people who ride a bicycle for the first time should not be able to master the balance.

Sure enough, when Juzi just went up and wanted to use his foot to stare at the pedal, his huge body fell in one direction uncontrollably.

If he hadn't been tall enough to support himself on his legs, he might have fallen to the ground by now.

"My lord, this can't work."

Juzi tried several times but failed and couldn't help frowning.

"Come down, let me try."

Of course Zhao Jun can ride a bicycle. As soon as she touched the handle and stepped on the pedal, the familiar feeling came.

"Because a bicycle has two wheels, mastering balance is the most important thing."

"It's normal to be unsuccessful in the first few times, just practice a few more times to find the feeling."

Zhao Jun was ready to get in the car while explaining.

Many craftsmen are still watching.

After hearing Zhao Jun's words, Juzi thought she was going to find an excuse for his failure.

Unexpectedly, her voice just fell.

The two wheels of the bicycle slowly turned.

Zhao Jun stepped on the pedals on both sides alternately with both feet off the ground.

The bicycle turned steadily, and the person on it looked very relaxed.

She just rode her bicycle around the yard.

Occasionally even hold the faucet with only one hand.

Everyone standing next to him was stunned.

Juzi's heart: Why does the adult seem to be riding so easily?
