Peng Zhiyun has been living a very comfortable life recently.

The money earned by the dental shop in the past month is comparable to last year.

When I went to Tianxiang Pavilion before, I still felt a little pain in my body, but now I feel nothing at all.

Last night, after staying overnight in the room of a girl who was good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, Peng Zhiyun didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning.

After leaving the gate of Tianxiang Pavilion feeling refreshed, Peng Zhiyun got on the carriage waiting for him and headed to the shop in the West Market.

It's a sunny day again today.

However, before the carriage entered the West Market, it was stopped by a hurried clerk.

"Shopkeeper Peng, something bad is going on."

The waiter had been waiting at Xishikou for a long time. When he saw his shopkeeper's carriage coming, he quickly stepped forward to stop it.

"What are you doing in a panic?"

Peng Zhiyun was still thinking about the scene of Xiaohun last night, which was exactly the highlight, but he was suddenly interrupted, and his tone was naturally a bit unkind.

"Just this morning, a Mercedes-Benz carriage shop suddenly popped up in Chang'an City, specializing in selling four-wheel carriages. I heard that many people went to buy them."

Peng Zhiyun glared at the waiter dissatisfied, "Why are you so panicked just because of this? On what day will some new shops open in Chang'an City?"

Peng Zhiyun's head still hurts after drinking a lot of Shaodaozi last night.

"No, shopkeeper, this time is different. The four-wheeled carriage sold by the Mercedes-Benz Carriage Shop only costs ten guan. Just half an hour ago, some other carriage shops have already wanted to return the carriage to us.

.”

"Huh? Anyone wants to return the goods?"

Peng Zhiyun finally became vigilant. This was not a good sign.

"Just for that four-wheeled carriage from a Mercedes-Benz carriage shop, a tooth shop wants to return it? No matter how cheap the four-wheeled carriage is, what's the use? Who would use it?"

Seeing that the shopkeeper was still lucky, the waiter was almost crying.

In the morning, I witnessed with my own eyes the Mercedes-Benz horse-drawn carriage patrolling the streets, and also witnessed the four-wheeled carriage turning easily in front of me.

Then I saw that the cart was full of briquettes. The loading capacity was definitely more than double that of a two-wheeled carriage.

Forget it, but look at what is written on the cover...

Although my family is illiterate, people keep shouting at me.

If you are not satisfied, you will get a three-day refund, a free warranty within three months, and a free whale oil grease if you purchase it three days before the opening...

This is a really popular rhythm.

"Shopkeeper, I think you should go to the Mercedes-Benz Carriage Shop in person and make a decision as soon as possible. Changes will happen later!"

The clerk is a domestic slave of the Peng family, and he only thinks about the future of the Peng family.

After all, if the Peng family were to die, his good life would be over.

…

In the backyard of the carriage house in the south of the city, a brand new four-wheeled carriage was parked quietly there.

However, the surrounding environment is not quiet at all.

Wei Siren had already received the news and rushed over. He and Wei Bao stood in the yard and watched the craftsmen in the car shop analyze and confirm the quality of the four-wheeled carriage.

"Mr. Lang, I have basically made it clear that there are three main differences between the four-wheeled carriages of this Mercedes-Benz Carriage Company and the previous four-wheeled carriages."

An elderly craftsman lay down under the carriage very seriously, looked at it carefully, and basically got the answer.

In fact, there is basically no way to keep the structure of a four-wheeled carriage of this era secret.

There are only so many things in total. You can see them at a glance. How can you keep them secret?

Of course, just because you can see it, doesn’t mean you can do it.

"What three differences?"

Wei Siren's face was gloomy, with a hint of coldness in his tone.

"First, its four wheels are not placed together on the frame; second, its axle is made of cast iron, and a very special mechanism is installed on both ends of the axle; third, this carriage has an extra mechanism

, after pulling it up, it can block the wheels when parking, allowing the carriage to stop faster."

The old craftsman did not dare to rely on his old skills and told his confirmed results in one breath.

In fact, even without him having to say much, Wei Siren and Wei Bao could basically see these differences.

It's just that now, after listening to the old craftsman's words, I feel more certain.

"This four-wheeled carriage solves the problem of difficult steering just because the four wheels are not on the same frame?"

Wei Siren thinks this answer is a bit ridiculous, is it that simple?

Why didn’t the craftsmen of the Wei family think of this before?

"Mr. Lang, it's true. I tried driving it just now. Although the steering is not as flexible as a two-wheeled carriage, there is indeed no problem."

The old craftsman told the truth and did not dare to add too many additional comments.

"So, if we want to make a four-wheeled carriage, it should be very simple, right?"

Wei Bao asked from the side.

In one morning alone, he felt the impact of the carriage on him.

In the usual bustling carriage house in the south of the city, not a single carriage was sold this morning.

Anyone who is not stupid knows what to do at this time.

Anyway, there is no such thing as patent rights in this era. The four-wheeled carriages of the Mercedes-Benz Carriage Company are very popular, so they just produce them themselves.

"Shopkeeper, it can be made, but the four-wheeled carriage we make may not be as fast as others, and the axles may not be as durable as others, and the load capacity may even be lower."

Although he knew that what he said was not what the shopkeeper wanted to hear, the old craftsman still reminded him honestly.

If he waits until his own four-wheeled carriage is produced and talks about these issues, the shopkeeper might think he is cheating him.

That would be troublesome.

"Huh? Why is that so?"

Wei Siren had already approved Wei Bao's plan of imitating a four-wheeled carriage in his heart, but he did not expect to hear such a bad answer.

"Lang Jun, the difference lies in the special mechanisms at both ends of the axle. With this thing, the rotation of the wheel becomes very light, which can save a lot of horsepower. And after applying whale oil grease, it makes people feel even more comfortable.

Less than its wear and tear.”

After all, the old craftsman had worked in the Wei family's carriage workshop for decades, and he could clearly see the quality of the four-wheeled carriage in front of him.

"Are you talking about the bearing? When I just went to buy a carriage, the guys at the Mercedes-Benz carriage shop seemed to have introduced this thing specifically. They also reminded the coachmen not to disassemble the bearing at will, otherwise they will no longer be responsible for the warranty of the carriage."

Behind Wei Bao, the guy who was responsible for buying a four-wheel carriage from the Mercedes-Benz Carriage Shop stood up and added something in a low voice.

"Bearing?"

The old craftsman couldn't help but recited, "This word is really appropriate. This mechanism is exactly the one that bears the weight of the frame on the axle."

"What, is this bearing difficult to make?"

Wei Siren looked at the old craftsman with a dissatisfied look.

The Wei family's carriage workshop is the largest in Chang'an City, and can even be said to be the largest carriage workshop in the Tang Dynasty.

Nowadays, there are things in the carriages made by others that cannot be made by oneself. How can this be accepted?

I pay so much salary to them every month, is it all wasted?

"Lang Jun, I'm not sure whether this can be done. But this bearing looks like it's made of fine steel. There are basically carpenters in our carriage workshop."

…

An autumn rain and a cold one. Along with the pattering rain, Chang'an City entered winter mode overnight.

What is even colder is the sales of two-wheeled carriages.

Back off!

Refund!

Many dealers who had stocked up on two-wheeled carriages went to their dealers one after another and wanted to return the unsold carriages.

Coachmen and merchants who recently bought two-wheeled carriages also want to return them.

How can there be such a good thing in the world?

Neither Chengnan Carriage Shop nor Peng Zhiyun’s Dental Shop refunded a penny to anyone.

I still have a lot of unsold carriages on hand, how can I refund them to you?

When the price of carriages increased, why didn't you return them and buy them again?

Seeing that in the next few days, almost none of the two-wheeled carriages were sold.

Wei Bao was also anxious.
