Great Tang’s Talented Little Landlord

Less than as a last resort, Li Wangyou is unwilling to ask Cheng Yaojin.

After all, Cheng Yaojin didn’t know why he was close to him, but Li Wangyou didn’t feel that he should come to him for help.

Moreover, the black belly man in the bones is still a bit stubborn, and I feel ashamed to come to Cheng Yaojin for help. Even if Cheng Yaojin came forward to stop Li Clan’s conspiracy this time, what about next time? Does he ask Cheng Yaojin every time?

Li Wangyou paced back and forth in the hall, wondering how he should face this matter.

According to Yang Zuan’s statement, although this Ch_ng’n county Shouhu joined the army, although the rank is not high, it is indeed his authority to recruit civilians to transport food, and once this matter is set, Dingzhou Village must be completed.

If the corvee cannot be completed, the punishment is severe. It is possible to go to jail or even imprisonment. Li Wangyou doesn’t think he can fight the government.

Then the only way is to find a way to transport this thousand stones to Yinzhou.

But he asked Yang Zuan just now. There is no waterway in Yinzhou, and shipping is impossible. The only way of transportation is land, using bullock carts or Carriage.

With Great Tangs current ox cart transportation capacity, thats it. Carriage is faster, but the load capacity is not good.

He slapped his head depressed, hoping to come up with a solution to the current predicament.

Su Changqing looked worried: “Wangyou, don’t think about it, let’s go to Uncle Cheng to intercede.”

Li Wangyou thought about it for a long time, and really felt that there was no other way. , Can only be sighed then said, silently nodded.

Instructed Niu Wu to lead the horse, and the two of them rode to Chang’an City for help.

Shortly after leaving the entrance of Dingzhou Village, a Carriage came onwards. Because the road was not wide, Li Wangyou and Niu Wu pulled a horse to stand by, waiting for Carriage to pass first.

Then Carriage zhi zhi passed by them, and the handlebars were friendly and nodded to the two, expressing gratitude.

After the Carriage, Niu Wu was about to rush the horse forward as soon as he pulled the reins, but saw Li Wangyou riding motionless on the horse, staring at the carriage that was going away thinking about things.

“Master, what do you think? Let’s go.” Niu Wu urged.

Li Wangyou did not speak, but was in a daze.

While Niu Wu was wondering, he saw Li Wangyou pull the horse suddenly: “Niu Wu, let’s go back! I have a way! Haha, I really am a genius!”

Li Wangyou didn’t wait for Niu Wu, so he ran towards the village and made Niu Wu unfathomable mystery, so he could only turn his horse’s head and follow him.

The beauty boss saw Li Wangyou go back and return, and couldnt help but said strangely: “Wangyou, why are you back again?”

Old Village Head and Yang Zuan are still in the Li Family hall In the midst, seeing him suddenly return, he was also very surprised.

“haha, Changqing, I have a way! Four-wheeled Carriage, as long as four-wheeled Carriage is created, this thousand stones is not a problem!” Li Wangyou jumped off his horse and called out loudly.

“Four-wheel Carriage?” Su Changqing didn’t understand what he meant.

Old Village Head and Yang Zuan were also confused by Li Wangyou’s words. What are these four rounds of Carriage?

Since ancient times, China has rarely seen four-wheeled Carriage, but there have been four-wheeled Carriage in the Song Dynasty.

However, the four-wheeled Carriage is different from the western ones. Its four wheels are all mounted on a fixed frame, so it cant steer. The steering problem depends on the strength of the four cows. Resolve by force.

Yes, this is the reason why Huaxia Carriage ox carts have been two-wheeled since ancient times, and there is no invention out of the bogie!

Since the Roman era, four-wheeled Carriage with bogies have appeared in the West, and the East has indeed taken a detour in this regard.

Li Wangyou just saw the Great Tang Carriage, and always felt something was wrong. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly realized that it was because the Great Tang Carriage and the bullock cart had only two wheels. .

And the four-wheel Carriage in terms of load, it is a complete burst of two-wheel Carriage.

Li Wangyou remember that the European Napoleon Legion relied on the four-wheeled Carriage to solve the military transportation problem. At that time, each four-horse-drawn Carriage had a load of 1.5 tons!

Equivalent to a four-wheeled Carriage can carry 30 shi of grain, and a thousand shi of grain can be easily pulled away with more than 30 four-wheeled Carriage.

Furthermore, the four-horse-horse Carriage is far faster than the bull cart.

The ox cart can walk seven or eight kilometers per hour, while the speed of Carriage can reach about 20 kilometers. According to Carriage’s four hours of walking a day, that is one hundred and sixty kilometers. It only took about three days to go to Yinzhou from Chang’an City.

“Magistrate, when will we leave for the army to join the army?” Li Wangyou asked, he needs time to gather people to try out Carriage.

“5 days later, depart from Chang’an City.”

“Can the cattle transporting grain be replaced by horses? I need more than a hundred horses.” Li Wangyou asked again.

Yang Zuan frowned: “This is fine. After all, cattle are more expensive than horses. Ziyou, do you want to use Carriage to transport food? Horses are not as powerful as cattle.”

” Yes, small master, you cant be kidding about this. Carriage can pull five or six shi of grain, and the bullock cart may pull ten shi. If you use Carriage, there will be more people in the village that need to be dispatched, which is absolutely impossible “Old Village Head also quickly persuaded.

“haha, don’t worry, I can create a carriage that pulls 30 shi grains! I will go to Carriage Liu now!” After Li Wangyou finished speaking, he turned and ran out.

His words made Yang Zuan and Old Village Head looked at each other in blank dismay, is this Li Family small master mad?

A Carriage pulls 30 stones of grain? How can this be!

It is a ox cart pulled by four cows, and it cant carry so much, even more how to use horses.

“Magistrate, you see things…” Old Village Head stammering looked towards Yang Zuan, I hope he can persuade Li Wangyou.

This matter is related to the life and death of the whole Dingzhou Village, but it cannot be caused by the temperament of the Li Family small master.

The beautiful boss on the side understood Li Wangyou’s words and couldn’t help but eyes shined. Although she doesn’t know how much cargo the four-wheeled Carriage can hold, she knows that the four-wheeled Carriage eliminated two Carriages, and later when she traveled abroad, she also did that kind of four-wheeled Carriage soliciting sightseeing.

Two healthy horses can drag more than a dozen tourists around, which is much better than Great Tangs ox cart.

Yang Zuan and Old Village Head are naturally not clear about this. After Li Wangyou ran out, the two were also fidgeting, and neither knew what Li Wangyou wanted to do.

Leaded by Old Village Head, the two also walked to Carpenter Liu’s house, ready to see with their own eyes what Li Wangyou’s “four-wheeled Carriage” is.

At Carpenter Lius house, Li Wangyou is holding a charcoal pen and is busy writing and drawing on paper. While writing and talking to Carpenter Liu, his three sons are also by the side. On the sidelines.

Yang Zuan and Old Village Head are unknown, so they can only stand by and watch. After a long time, Li Wangyou finally put down the charcoal pencil, and Liu Carpenter and his three sons were all excited.

“Small master, you are really a divine object! You know this divine object! I will start a trial with my son immediately. If it succeeds, small master, you are another great achievement for benefiting the people. Ah!” Carpenter Liu sighed.
