Chapter 746 Training Wheel

He actually put himself in the same position as the emperor, isn't he drifting away.

But soon he also calmed down, shook the untied rope, and said with an expression of an expert: "Your Majesty, I don't know why you called the little one here?"

After the embarrassment at the beginning, the emperor put on airs: "I heard that you made the bicycle for Mrs. Yan."

"Yes, it is indeed Madam Yan who has entrusted me."

"Then do you still have the finished product?" the emperor asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when the little one was made for Mrs. Yan, it was made according to the quantity she ordered, and it was not made too much."

The emperor was a little disappointed, and hoped to get one out of him to have a look.

The craftsman's voice changed: "Although there is no extra, but a first version of the finished product has been prepared when ordering. If your Majesty needs it, you can send someone to fetch it for you."

Every time he makes something for Yun Yiyi, he keeps the first version of the finished product, which is also for better improvement.

He was afraid of pimples before, and he mentioned it to Yun Yiyi, but Yun Yiyi said he didn't care, so he did it.

Every craftsman has something he is good at. The first edition is like making a pattern, and you can see your own thinking process from the imperfect details of the first edition.

It is also a collecting hobby.

"In this case, you send someone to get it." The emperor said to the chief eunuch.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, only the little one knows where this thing is, and please let the little one go back and get it by himself." The craftsman said respectfully.

The emperor knew that some famous masters had their own darkrooms, and if it wasn't for them, no one would be able to unlock them.

At the moment, he stopped blocking and agreed to the craftsman's request.

While the emperor was waiting, the chief eunuch brewed a pot of tea again: "Your Majesty, have a sip of tea, we'll be here in a while."

"That's good." The emperor was a little dry, picked up a cup and took a sip.

The scent of tea slowly spread out, making people sober up a lot.

In the faint mist, the craftsman walked over pushing a strange thing.

The emperor quickly put down his teacup, stepped forward to examine it carefully: "These two rollers in front of me are bicycles?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is true that the front one is the front of the car, and the left and right sides can turn their heads. The direction is controlled by the person himself. This place is the seat for people to sit. The big box behind this is used by Mrs. Yan to put the car. The takeaway ones can be disassembled and seated.” The craftsman explained one by one, looking at the bicycle as if looking at his own child.

Hearing that it was used for takeaway, the corner of the emperor's mouth couldn't help twitching.

Such a good thing is only used for takeaway!
Should it be said that it is extravagance or extravagance?

"What about these two small wheels?" The emperor picked up the small wheels that were set aside.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a training wheel, and it is for people who can't ride a bicycle to install it." The craftsman sighed, remembering the embarrassment of riding a bicycle for the first time. Fortunately, the existence of this thing prevented him from riding a bicycle the second time. It's too embarrassing.

"You can ride even if you don't know how to ride? I want to try!" The emperor became excited.

The craftsman responded, took out the tools he had prepared, and fitted the two training wheels to the rear wheels.

The movements are extremely neat, and it can be seen that they have been practiced countless times.

"Your Majesty, look, now it's like this, even if you don't use this shelf to support it, it won't fall down. You just need to sit on it." The craftsman gestured.

The chief eunuch hurriedly helped the emperor sit on the bicycle.

"Put both feet on the pedals, hold the two ends of the front of the bike with your hands, and look forward. You can ride it to any place you want as long as you step down hard."

According to the instructions of the craftsman, the emperor actually rode the bicycle away.

The chief eunuch was afraid that the emperor would accidentally fall, so he emptily supported the back seat.

"Your Majesty, how do you feel?" After running for two steps, the chief eunuch was a little out of breath.

Obviously, the emperor also saw it, and immediately said: "I'm fine, you don't need to support me, I can walk by myself."

The chief eunuch pretended to evade a few words, and took advantage of the situation to stop to rest.

He is too old to run away with the emperor.

The emperor didn't care either, he was currently immersed in the joy of riding a bicycle and couldn't extricate himself.

The road in the palace is not the country road outside, it is as smooth as it needs to be.

The emperor rode very smoothly, and he didn't need to learn any skills, as long as he mastered the front of the bike, he could ride with his feet firmly.

The existence of two small wheels perfectly compensates for the balance, making him extraordinarily safe no matter where he goes.

"How did I ride just now?" the emperor turned around and came back, asking the chief eunuch.

The chief eunuch wiped the sweat from his neck, and still did not forget to flatter him: "Your Majesty is truly wise and mighty!"

The emperor raised his chin, very satisfied with his words.

After getting out of the car, the emperor looked at the two training wheels on the rear wheel: "I have just experienced the feeling of having training wheels. Is it impossible to ride without training wheels?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, you can ride with or without training wheels, the only difference is the riding proficiency." The craftsman was a little hard to explain, obviously thinking of his own past.

The emperor asked enthusiastically, "How do you say that?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, some people can't learn to ride a bicycle. The training wheels exist to lower this standard, so that anyone who can ride a bicycle can ride..." At this point, the craftsman didn't continue.

The emperor naturally understood the meaning and said with a smile, "You know how to ride a bicycle without training wheels?"

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Yan has taught the young ones, but the young ones have never learned..."

The craftsman is a little embarrassed, and it takes courage to admit his shortcomings.

"It's okay, tell me the essentials, I'll give it a try." The emperor waved his hand.

The craftsman had no choice but to obey the emperor. In order to prevent accidents, he asked the guards to support the emperor when he got on the chariot, and let the emperor ride away before letting go.

The emperor glanced at the bicycle without training wheels, and got on the bicycle with his feet up. According to the craftsman's method, he was not used to it.

The balance is not so easy to control. Fortunately, under the protection of the guards, nothing happened to the emperor.

That is to say, it was a bit difficult at the beginning, but after riding smoothly, the emperor found that it was lighter than the one with training wheels.

"Your Majesty, please ride slowly!" The chief eunuch was not in a hurry to catch up, so he had to shout from behind.

The emperor suddenly remembered that he was in the same situation when he was a child. When he was the crown prince, the chief eunuch shouted behind him like this.

The emperor subconsciously slowed down: "You are much slower this time."

"Your Majesty, this old slave is getting old." The chief eunuch was quite helpless.

The emperor seemed to be touched by this sentence, and stopped.

The chief eunuch was wondering, so he watched the emperor push the bicycle to him: "I want to watch you ride it."

With that said, the emperor walked to the other side: "Just ride here."

The chief eunuch said with a mournful face, "Yes, Your Majesty."

With such a sad face, the emperor seemed to see him when he was young, and couldn't help laughing: "You have to run faster for me."

The chief eunuch was helpless, but with the support of the young eunuch, he actually rode in a decent manner.

"Your Majesty." After finally riding beside the emperor, the chief eunuch was out of breath.

"Your physical strength is too weak, you have to exercise well, otherwise how can you protect me?" the emperor laughed.

The chief eunuch looked aggrievedly, not daring to refute.

The emperor turned to the craftsman and said, "You can make ten more for me later."

The craftsman hurriedly said, "Is it urgent to ask Your Majesty?"

"Don't worry, just send it over when you're done." The emperor waved his hand, signaling him to go down.

The chief eunuch stepped forward and pressed his shoulders: "Your Majesty, do you want to deliver a letter?"

The emperor sneered: "You have ridden just now, do you think the horse is faster or you are faster?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it must be because the horse is fast. The old slave is sweating after riding for so long." The chief eunuch subconsciously stayed away, so as not to let the emperor smell something bad.

Speaking of which, this bicycle is really not something that ordinary people can ride, and I am ashamed to say that I can ride it without any physical strength.

"That's right, I tried it just now, but manpower can't compare to the speed of a horse. Da Zhou values ​​literature more than martial arts. Even the princes have mediocre physical fitness. I found that riding a bicycle is quite a workout. It’s just for them to try it, it’s not bad to be a new toy.” The emperor said lightly.

It's not that the emperor never thought of promoting this bicycle on a large scale, but after he tried it himself, he realized that it was not the same thing.

Before, he thought that Yun Yiyi was overqualified for using this bicycle to deliver food, but now it seems that it is wise!
The speed of a human is naturally not as fast as that of a horse. Although a bicycle uses manpower, its speed is much higher than that of ordinary manpower. This can greatly increase the speed of food delivery and allow buyers to enjoy the food delivered as soon as possible.

Riding a horse to deliver food in the capital is easy to hurt people and is not conducive to people's travel, but riding a bicycle is not so ostentatious.

He also tried it just now, riding a bicycle can stop when he wants to, and his agility is many times higher than that of a horse.

"Your Majesty is holy." The chief eunuch thought that the emperor wanted to use it to send a message, but now he heard what the emperor said, and he understood it in his heart.

The emperor inexplicably remembered what the Empress Dowager said a few days ago, and sighed a little: "Madam Yan really has a lot of ideas. I heard the Empress Mother say that lying on that bed will not hurt my waist or back..."

"Your Majesty, do you need the old slave to tell the craftsman to make you a bed like this?" the chief eunuch asked tentatively.

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Hurry up!"

Just as the chief eunuch was about to leave, he was stopped by the emperor: "Wait a minute, make one for the queen, prince, eldest princess and others."

The chief eunuch responded and called a young eunuch to chase after the craftsman.

Not long after the craftsman left, a young eunuch stopped him.

The craftsman asked suspiciously: "Dare to ask the father-in-law, does your majesty have any orders?"

"Your Majesty ordered you to make five more beds for the Queen Mother." The little eunuch delivered the message in a high-pitched voice.

"Little one knows."
