After all, this day's test car did not turn into the Suzuka Eight or the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race. Except for two enthusiastic people who were free of charge, because they had never received relevant training, they raced in a short period of nearly two hours.
In addition to squandering all your energy during the time, another reason is that the vehicle also needs to be inspected and repaired.
The most important thing is that there has never been such a high-intensity driving behavior since a certain traveler brought the design of the vehicle to the Lost World. The various parts inside, including the power system and transmission system, are made of magic materials, right?
Lin was quite curious that it could still maintain its original appearance.
Of course, there are four silver-bearded dwarves who are also curious. They hope to partially transplant this structure into peaceful weapons, which are weapons for war. It would be funny if the chain dropped in the middle of the battle.
, so they are more worried about the durability of the machine than anyone else.
Since the car would be towed back to the factory for dismantling, there was nothing to do in the afternoon. On the pretext of sending two guests back to rest and going home for lunch, Lin ordered a tentative 732A model to carry Aza.
De and William Greco left.
In fact, the automobile manufacturing and R&D center has a restaurant that provides lunch. After all, the work here is not an easy job. Having an extra meal at noon and taking a break will be helpful for work efficiency in the afternoon. And the workers here are not
There are so many migrant workers who are at the mercy of others, and there are many masters who dare to flip the table with the boss at any time.
No matter how stingy Mr. Kawei's agent, the old housekeeper Aihanu, is, he would not dare to pick on such a person. It is almost a daily routine for the center to cause trouble if they disagree with each other. It makes someone seriously consider whether to organize
There is an internal disciplinary force to control everyone's habit of using fists to make decisions. Most of the waste products produced were smashed by our own people.
However, eating at noon is not a habit of Midi people, so this part is not forced. People who want to eat can go and eat. In other words, the restaurant is open, and you can go to eat at any time if you are hungry.
Under normal circumstances, if someone wants to run away from work and go home for dinner, the old butler Aihanu will resist it. As long as he happens to be nearby and sees someone packing their things and preparing to leave, this
The old man will obstruct him in every possible way and find ways to entangle the other party so that he cannot escape.
This is because in the afternoon, Lin has to go to the college to teach mathematics. After lunch at home and before teaching, someone usually does not come to the center so hard to do something more or less, unless
It is really necessary. It means that during this period, it will be fished out in troubled waters.
How could Aihanu tolerate this happening! According to him, someone should quit math class and live wholeheartedly in the dormitory provided by the center. In fact, he eats, drinks, and sleeps on the production line of the factory.
superior.
People are very generous to people who take how much money they get and how many things they do; but for people who can get dividends without doing anything, they should be urged to do it until they die. What kind of logic is this, some people still don’t understand it.
It seems that for the latter, you have to use it to get the best value for money.
But today someone said he wanted to leave, but the stubborn old man didn't even stop him, and didn't even look this way. Is this a sexual transition or a brain twitch? I heard the two people in the back seat snoring.
, Lin then realized that this was thanks to the emperor’s own son!
By the way, if I summon Hagiri and give Azad a sword now, does it count as eliminating harm for the people?
But thinking that he had to stay away from the harassment of the old man, the Demon Prince had to hold on to his shield. With this shield, he should be able to avoid a lot of trouble.
But when I got home, looking at the messy courtyard that had mostly been tidied up, I still had the urge to cry.
The Silverbeard Dwarf's workshop was still collapsed. They were picked up early in the morning, and the research on new engines for trucks at the center was reaching an important stage. After the important things were rescued last night, the rest was entrusted to the two
I'm a young girl, I need someone to take care of her.
The jacquard machine has been corrected. However, all the protruding parts on the top, including the jacquard lifting mechanism, are still smashed into a mess because the structure is too delicate. Needless to say, the silkworm coop is just as bad.
Uzov Gantia invited back a group of bricklayers who were good at building houses and were helping the two girls clean up the mess. When he saw Lin coming back in an open-top tentative 732A car, he was not surprised.
He greeted politely: "Boss, you're back." He just noticed the two people in the back seat and said with a strange expression: "You just went to conquer the king-level monsters?"
"Crunt against king-level monsters? Why do you say that?" Lin asked puzzledly.
"Otherwise, those two looked exhausted, lying in the back seat and sleeping soundly." Uzov explained.
Looking back, Lin smiled and said: "Oh, them. I think the guys we just dealt with are better than the king-level monsters. Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Just let them rest."
At this time, several leaders of the craftsmen who came to help also came forward to pay their respects. Uzov helped clear an open space for parking. Unwilling to leave, he kept following him, staring at someone fiercely. Of course Lin knew
This means that if you want to say something, you will say: "If you want to say something, just say it directly."
Uzov smiled and said: "Boss, it's not a big deal. It's just that many people under me are asking when they can buy a car."
"Buy a car?" Lin asked in surprise.
"Yes. People from the Jialong Chamber of Commerce and people from Kawei Gong are using it. We asked people we know to find out, and we added it up in private. Although the price of the truck is a bit more expensive, the convenience is really not comparable to the original horse-drawn carriage.
It's comparable. Especially since everyone is using it in the Holy City, there is no need to worry about road interruptions, collapses and other problems, and repairs are easy, so I want to buy one or two to use as official vehicles in the technical guild.
There are also many wealthy craftsmen down there who want to buy it. And those young men who specialize in soliciting business want to buy small cars for transportation and run business in other districts."
"Wow, if you cross the border like this, will the locals cause trouble?" Lin laughed.
"Boss, you don't know something. The needs of other districts in the Holy City, as well as local craftsmen, will more or less utilize the business of the Technology Guild. But more than once, someone mentioned that they hope I can open a local branch. It's like taking a risk.
Like a guild or a mercenary guild. It’s just that there’s no one I can trust who is familiar with guild affairs so that I can safely open a branch. Not everyone is willing to insist on just guarding technology patents. If there is someone
Using cars as a boost, we can expand the scope of influence of the Technical Guild without having to rely on establishing strongholds. Moreover, we have also calculated that as long as the logistics and supplies can keep up, buying a car is much more cost-effective than raising horses."
"It turns out there is demand now." After getting out of the car, Lin looked at the tentative model car made of ordinary materials that he drove back. Maybe it's time to convert it to a formal model and accumulate experience points while selling it. It's like
The progress in truck design and manufacturing is due to the experience value contributed by the Jialong Chamber of Commerce and Kaweigong.
After thinking about it, Lin said: "If it is a four-seater small car, you can come forward and contact the center's external reception staff. You are familiar with that person. He was seconded from the Technology Guild. I will go there.
Say hello. As for the truck, please wait. The next improved model is almost finalized, and the proportion of magic materials used has been reduced. Although there is a slight drop in performance, the price has dropped even more, and the reliability of other parts has also improved.
increased."
"Oh, really. That's great. I'll go talk to the others." Uzov walked away happily.
At this time, Lin turned to look at the two people who were still sitting in the car. Although they had woken up, they lazily didn't want to get up, and asked: "You two, do you want to have lunch?"
Azad almost jumped up from his seat and said: "Eat, why not eat!"
The same goes for William Greco. He stood up slowly and dusted off his robes. After squinting for a while, the two of them regained their energy a little. The common feeling now is that they are thirsty and hungry, and they don't know it.
Where does this feeling come from?
It was obvious that he just moved his feet, turned the steering wheel and shifted gears. It was not like he had gone through a fierce battle, so how could he be so tired?
Lin said to the two girls who were still directing the reconstruction plan in the ruins of the silkworm coop: "Girl, is lunch ready?"
Kaya trotted over alone and said, "Sister Wana is prepared. I'll go see if I can help." After saying that, she trotted away.
Lin and the other three people gave their allegiance and walked towards the main house.
With this free time, Lin You asked without saying a word: "I just drove for more than two hours. Do you have any thoughts, you two?"
"Those two cars must be failures." Azad devalued everything in the world as always.
Someone replied noncommittally: "It depends on how strict your definition of failure is. For me, if you have four wheels, you can run when you step on the accelerator, and you can stop when you step on the brake, then you have passed the test."
."
"You also said, it's just a passing grade. Compared with perfection, there is still a distance that you may never be able to cross."
"Oh, I wonder if Your Highness would be willing to let me know what part makes you feel so resentful." Lin asked curiously, looking at the dissatisfaction on the Demon Prince's face and the small tuft of blue hair on his forehead.
"It's all a problem with the tires, front and rear. I haven't fully utilized the performance of the entire car. It's all limited by the grip of the tires. I can't use all the fifteen gears.
, it can only go to the seventh gear at most." Almost face to face, Azad shook his index thumb dissatisfiedly and made a sign of '7'.
Lin still smiled and said: "Those two cars were originally built with a bunch of immature technologies. Plus the people who customized them didn't care about balance at all. It's normal to make such a top-heavy monster.
Right. But the manufacturing process of tires has improved a lot, and they have thought of adding magic materials to increase stickiness and wear resistance. If the original tires were of the same level, the two cars would just be digging sand in place."
