A few months later, Liu Jin came here again at the Mercedes-Benz Bicycle Factory. By this time, the autumn wind was blowing, and the roads inside the bicycle factory were covered with fallen leaves.
"Time is getting faster and faster, and it's been another year in a blink of an eye."
Liu Jin sat on the four-wheeled carriage, looking at the falling autumn leaves, lamenting that time flies by, time flies by, and time flies by faster and faster, so fast that a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps when you get old, you will lament that life is extremely short. In the blink of an eye, you will be old, your eyes will be dim, and your temples will be like frost.
"Old Liu, let me tell you, I am only 30 short of giving birth to 100 sons. I think I will be able to complete the task next year."
On the four-wheeled carriage, Zhu Houzhao showed off to Liu Jin his ability to create humans.
This left Liu Jin quite speechless.
To be honest, there is nothing to show off. As long as the man is a policy man, and he is given a bunch of women, plus the Ming Dynasty is getting deeper and deeper into medical research and can accurately calculate time, is it difficult to create a man?
You have a harem of hundreds of people, but you can be different 365 days a year, and you still have the nerve to show off to me.
"Your Highness is awesome, come on, Your Highness!"
Not knowing how to answer, Liu Jin could only give Zhu Houzhao a thumbs up.
"Haha, of course, do you want me to teach you some secrets? Look, there are only two women. This is too few, too few. At least I need to marry a few more, at least dozens.
Well, two of them are boring."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately laughed. He was probably the only one who could tell Liu Jin dirty jokes and talk about creating humans.
"Well, two will be enough. I'm old and I have more energy than I can handle. I can't handle more than I can bear."
Liu Jin was even more speechless.
"Ah, you're only over thirty and you can't stand it anymore?"
"That won't work. I have some secret recipes here. I'll have them delivered to your house later."
Zhu Houzhao looked at Zhu Houzhao, and immediately smiled and said in a low voice.
",,,Thank you, Your Highness."
Liu Jin was completely speechless. He couldn't talk to this guy about this kind of thing. He was a famous and extravagant emperor in history. Talking to him about this kind of thing would make him embarrassed and speechless.
The four-wheeled carriage soon stopped at a factory building.
"His Royal Highness~"
"Mr. Liu!"
Ren Siheng, dean of the Mechanical Research Institute, Lu Qing, an internal combustion engine researcher, Duan Hai, director of the Mercedes-Benz Bicycle Factory, Huang Zhiyuan, deputy technical director, and a large group of people were already waiting.
"Um!"
"Come on, take us to see this car quickly."
Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said impatiently.
"Yes~"
When Ren Siheng and others heard this, they nodded quickly and walked into the factory with Zhu Houzhao, Liu Jin and others.
The reason why we came here this time was because Ren Siheng and Duan Hai said that they had built the first car, so Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin also hurried over.
Soon, everyone came to the factory, and Liu Jin's eyes were immediately fixed on the car in the middle of the factory.
There is no comparison between this car and the cars of later generations, but it is already three points better.
"Is this a car?"
Zhu Houzhao also looked at the car in front of him with relish and circled around it.
Liu Jin also looked at it carefully.
Like the cars of later generations, this car also uses front-wheel drive technology. The internal combustion engine is installed in the front, but there is no cover to cover it. It is a bit like a tractor and is directly exposed to the outside.
At the same time, this car is still an open-top car. There is no shelter from the wind and rain. It has four wheels. Look at the steering wheel on the front. It is the same as a bicycle. It is not a disc, but a long stick.
, as for the headlights, rearview mirrors and the like, there are even less.
Guxi
This is just a naked car, which is far from the car in my mind. It is a bit like a tractor of later generations, because the back of this car is like a small trailer, empty.
"It feels a little bit like that."
Liu Jin laughed. Ming Dynasty's first car seemed to be pretty good if it could achieve this level.
After all, it has only been just over half a year since the internal combustion engine came out, and they have already developed this car.
This was similar to the early cars I had seen in movies. Even the tires were exposed, and there were no fenders to block water or mud. It was really simple and crude to get it out.
"Start it and try to see if it can move?"
Zhu Houzhao was full of joy when he saw it. He was full of interest in machines and other things. He couldn't wait to get in the car and touch here and there.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Lu Qing and Huang Zhiyuan are the chief technical engineers, responsible for design and manufacturing, and know best its related operations.
After Zhu Houzhao came down, he saw Lu Qing sitting on top of the car. Well, even the chairs were made of wood and fixed on top. Don't expect to be able to adjust the comfort level.
He sat on the car gracefully, and Huang Zhiyuan on the side was holding an oversized key. Well, the kind of tractor that came from later generations came to the front near the engine and started to turn it vigorously. Of course, it was not turning the internal combustion engine.
, but a generator on the side.
Without batteries, it can only generate electricity artificially.
He was generating electricity. Lu Qing saw that the power generation device was rotating rapidly, and he also pressed a red button on the car.
"Tutu~tutu~"
Along with this churning sound, black smoke began to emit from the chimney of the internal combustion engine, and then the internal combustion began to vibrate. The entire car had not started yet, but it was already vibrating, and compared to later generations of small cars, its vibration amplitude was only
Much more.
The internal combustion engine started, Huang Zhiyuan stopped, and Lu Qing gracefully grasped the steering lever, then pulled an operating lever with his right hand, and the car started to start.
"Tutu, tutu~"
Accompanied by a churning sound, under the control of Lu Qing, it began to drive out of the factory and toward the open space inside the factory.
Zhu Houzhao, Liu Jin, Ren Siheng, Duan Hai and many researchers quickly followed behind. Looking behind the car, they saw Lu Qing driving the car excitedly and in style.
When they reached the spacious open space outside, Lu Qing gently pushed a lever. As the lever was pushed, the sound of the internal combustion engine became louder and its speed became faster and faster.
At first, everyone could keep up with it on foot, but gradually its speed became comparable to that of a bicycle, and gradually it became so fast that it couldn't even match the speed of a bicycle.
Lu Qing controlled the car and circled around the huge open grassland, enjoying the oncoming autumn wind. This feeling also made Zhu Houzhao feel itchy in his heart, and he wished he could go up and give it a try.
"The speed is still good, and it looks like the stability is also very good. It's just that this car needs to improve a lot, too much."
Liu Jin looked carefully. Liu Jin, who came from a later generation, naturally looked down on the ancient guy in front of him.
But for everyone around him, everyone's faces were full of excitement and excitement.
Being able to produce such a car is not easy in this era.
Zhuge Liang's so-called wooden ox and flowing horse are not as good as the car in front of him, because the car in front of him is much faster, and based on the power of the internal combustion engine, it can definitely carry more things.
It is just the beginning. As the technology matures and experience accumulates, it can really shine in the future.
Lu Qing drove a dozen laps, and at Zhu Houzhao's strong request, he took Zhu Houzhao to sit on it again and continued walking around the playground.
"Haha, cool!"
"It's fun, it's fun, it's fun."
Sitting on the car, feeling the autumn wind, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help shouting loudly. For him, new things always make him excited, let alone cars.
"This car is really good. It has a great future in the future."
"Whether it is used to carry people or transport goods, it is very good."
Liu Jin looked at the cars turning around on the playground and expressed his affirmation to Ren Siheng, Duan Hai and the others.
Although this car still has many areas that can be improved and is still very primitive, it is indeed a car and can be slowly improved and developed in the future.
They were able to produce such a car in just over half a year, which is already extremely remarkable, and it is also very difficult. We need more encouragement and encouragement.
