Chapter 1971 With your father's specification, let's call it the exclusive version for the royal court
Empress Changsun also came to the beautiful blue carriage with curiosity at this moment, admiring the beautiful paint and beautiful shape.
Especially the very transparent glass of the car window surprised her even more.
Through the glass, she could even clearly see her father-in-law's exaggerated expression, and her husband's efforts to be reserved but inhaling frequently.
And Li Ke, an excellent royal tool man, is currently working hard to do his job as an interpreter of high-precision transportation vehicles for the Han and Tang Dynasties.
"Grandpa Huang, these carriages are different from the carriages we usually ride in. They are very light and use a lot of Western Regions colored glaze. People can ride in the carriages and enjoy the scenery of the Palace of All Nations.
.”
"Whether it's windy or rainy, it won't affect the occupants in the carriage, and because the door opens sideways, the bottom of the carriage is very close to the ground, which is also very convenient for the passengers to get in and out of the carriage..."
Li Yuan sat in the carriage full of curiosity. The comfortable and moderately soft and hard seat cushions and backrest allowed him to sit in the carriage and enjoy the scenery outside the carriage calmly.
The bottom of the carriage was only one step above the ground. Li Yuan held the carriage frame with one hand, turned around, and calmly stepped out of the carriage.
Li Shimin on the side was about to step forward to give him a hand, but his father, who was so curious, turned around again, got back into the carriage and continued to sit comfortably.
He patted the armrest by the window with satisfaction and said to Cheng Sanlang who was standing outside the car.
"Let me tell you, Cheng Sanlang, are you going to sell these things for a big price?"
Cheng Sanlang shook his head, smiling like a professional marketing expert.
"Look what the Emperor said, these are all specially ordered for you. They are not sold, only given as gifts. As long as the Emperor makes you feel comfortable."
"real?"
"Of course it's real. It's more real than real money."
"Okay, kid, I didn't expect you to come up with so many good things after not seeing me for a while."
"Xiao Sizi, come and take a carriage with grandpa..."
In the end, these carriages were still empty. Of course, Cheng Sanlang and Li Ke would not waste them and jumped on one. Lu Dongzan also sat on the other one as a novelty.
Soon, these carriages were traveling on the very smooth and open roads in the Palace of All Nations.
Li Ke was sitting in the carriage, rubbing his sore calves, and couldn't help but say proudly.
"It seems that my grandfather and my father have a good impression of this carriage. This is like a free advertisement for our Han and Tang Dynasty trading companies."
Cheng Chubi lazily leaned against the carriage, looking at the retreating scenery and smiled.
"That's natural. You can look for opportunities later and offer a few cars to your father."
"At that time, as long as our publicity can keep up, haha, then what we sell will not be carriages, but luxury goods."
"That's right. Just look at the Western Region glass pieces on the windows of this carriage. It would be impossible without hundreds of them."
"But in that case, I'm afraid I won't be able to sell much in a year, right?"
Cheng Sanlang looked at His Highness King Wu who had got into Qian's eyes, and lightly knocked on the glass window.
"Don't worry, we don't need all the four-wheeled carriages to be equipped with such large pieces of Western Regions glass. Small pieces can also be inlaid."
"You can even get some that don't have Western glaze sheets, but are only covered with tulle. In this way, won't there be a price difference?"
"For example, if you have the specifications of your grandfather and father, we call it the Royal Palace Exclusive Edition.
And this kind of thing is presented to the royal family in the name of our Han merchant company. Haha, I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf.
Let's give it away. Your father and your grandfather will use it comfortably. Can those ministers not follow suit?
At that time, the next-level version can be sold, which is called the Royal Exclusive Edition, and is specially sold to princes, princes and other people.
For example, if your Highness, King Wu, already has one, your uncles, brothers, and sisters can't still ride in those old-fashioned carriages that lack style when they go out, right?
...The second level can be called the Honorable Edition, and the Honorable Edition can be divided into several levels..."
Li Ke looked at him lying there lazily, but his brain was so active that he instantly classified the four-wheeled carriage into seven or eight grades.
At this moment, Li Ke felt as if he had seen his brothers, sisters, and uncles all waving their money and silk in their hands, just so that they could enjoy such a carriage like him.
Cheng Sanlang was very comfortable sitting in the car, compared to the earliest four-wheeled or even six-wheeled carriages used to transport coal and various materials.
Today's exquisite high-end vehicles are several levels higher in terms of quality and sophistication.
Just like the shock absorption of the earliest passenger carriages, they used leaf springs made of soft steel sheets.
Today's high-end products still use leaf springs, but the quality of the steel plates has been significantly improved compared to the early days.
Moreover, coil spring combinations are used in some buffer positions to ensure the comfort of the occupants to the greatest extent.
Therefore, it is no wonder that these four-wheeled carriages, which are well thought out and made of high-end materials, are not expensive.
However, as long as the Emperor used it, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would definitely use it, so how could His Highness the Prince not use it.
Even if Li Yuan couldn't be asked to jump out and walk across the stage, raise his thumb and say "Han and Tang Dynasty Trading Company's four-wheeled carriage," everyone who had ridden in it said it was a good idea.
Once it becomes popular among the royal family, haha... Cheng Sanlang firmly believes that in this era of ups and downs, the best advertising spokesperson must be the royal family.

When the carriage arrived in front of a lake, Li Yuan and Li Mingda, who were still in the carriage, couldn't help but be stunned.
The two of them, grandfather and grandson, saw a crystal-clear building at the same time, reflecting the sunlight wantonly under the sunlight.
Once it falls within sight, it looks like a huge and intimidating polygonal gem.
Not only them, but the people on the carriage behind were also attracted by the huge polygonal gem.
Only when the carriage gradually approached, did everyone clearly see a crystal clear and beautiful building made of crystal.
It was a polygonal building, and just above it was a very beautiful round dome.
But looking at it from the outside, it makes people feel that every side of it is so crystal clear, as if it was carved and polished with the best crystal.
Li Shimin slowly stepped into the carriage and stared blankly at the building, which was actually only about ten feet tall and only had an interior of dozens of square meters. He shook his head in disbelief.
"How much money, manpower and material resources will it cost to build this?"
