Next to them, Qin Huaiyu, Yuchi Baoqi and other friends were shocked to see Cheng Chuliang learning to ride a bicycle so quickly.
Oh my God! Is Cheng Chuliang so talented in riding a bicycle? He actually learned it in such a short period of time?
Well, okay, they always think that riding a bicycle is a difficult thing.
On the day when I saw Cheng Chuliang, he was riding well when Li Min let go and he didn't know it yet.
As a result, Li Min shouted: "I let go!"
Cheng Chuliang was immediately frightened.
"Don't let go! Don't let go! Don't let go! Don't, ah——!"
Bang!
As a result, Cheng Chuliang was thrown heavily to the ground without any surprise.
Cheng Chuliang got up, straightened the handlebars, and said dissatisfiedly to Li Min: "Your Highness, I told you not to let go, don't let go, why did you let go?"
Li Min laughed and said, "Actually, I let go a long time ago. When I didn't tell you, you were riding well, but as soon as I told you, you fell down."
"Actually, you have mastered the balance of riding a bicycle. It was just fear that made you fall. Don't worry, you can learn to ride a bicycle after you go back and practice for a few days. Go ahead."
After hearing Li Min's words, several friends were dubious and took their bicycles home to practice.
Li Min, on the other hand, approached Xia Yuntian, the editor-in-chief of Yizhou Monthly News, and asked him to do a grand promotion of bicycles.
There must be a grand promotion.
After such a long period of training, Xia Yuntian has grown and matured rapidly, and is now able to fully stand on his own.
After listening to King Shu's request, Xia Yuntian nodded and immediately understood how to do it.
Next, Xia Yuntian asked the King of Shu for some photos of bicycles and went back to ponder the manuscript.
…
At this time, the Wu family was in Bingzhou.
Wu Yuanqing was sighing at home.
Since the death of their father, Samurai Yun, their Wu family's business has been deteriorating day by day.
The two brothers Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang always believed that the person who caused all these results was their little sister Wu Meiniang.
It turned out that the young master from the Qiwang family fell in love with her. What a good thing this was?
Entering the Five Surnames and Seven Views, aren’t you the most popular and spicy drinkers?
Well, as for whether the young man has any bad habits or whether he will abuse their little sister, that is not at all a consideration for them.
Because as long as they have a relationship with the Five Surnames and Qiwang Family, their Wu family's business can continue to prosper.
but?
Because the younger sister escaped and was rescued by the King of Shu, this directly offended the young master named Qiwang, and their business became increasingly difficult.
Of course, they would definitely not dare to go to Yizhou to ask for someone.
These two brothers have great ambitions but little talent, and have no business skills. On the contrary, they have learned the bad habits of those young masters.
After the brothers started running a business, many shops betrayed them.
The two of them are lazy and lazy, so their business is getting worse every day.
Seeing that this business was about to collapse, the two of them were anxious to get angry, but there was nothing they could do.
While Wu Yuanqing was drinking wine at home and feeling worried while listening to a group of actors singing a ditty, Wu Yuanshuang walked in from outside.
"Brother, it's a good thing, there's a good thing!"
Wu Yuan Qingzi took a sip of wine, and then couldn't help but ask: "Tell me, what good thing is going on?"
Wu Yuanshuang could not help but whisper to Wu Yuanqing: "Brother, Lao Huang, do you know?"
Wu Yuanqing nodded and said: "I know, in the whole Bingzhou, who doesn't know Lao Huang? The products of Zhonghua Commercial House are all represented by Lao Huang."
When Wu Yuanqing mentioned Zhonghua Commercial Bank, he couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Because he knew that his sister Wu Meiniang was running the China Commercial Bank.
But, this girl, let alone taking care of them, is not bad if she doesn't look down on them to death.
Sure enough, girls who are outgoing are the ones who feed the unfamiliar people with white eyes! They are wolf-hearted and dog-eat-dog things.
Well, as for how they treated Empress Wu Mei and others, they automatically ignored it.
Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but said: "Brother, haven't I invited Lao Huang to drink flower wine every day these days? Now, Lao Huang has finally let go. He is willing to represent the products of Zhonghua Trading Company to us, and the price is
It’s 50% lower than the price he gave others!”
What?
Hearing the news, Wu Yuanqing couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
A full 50% lower!
Is this price really possible to be so low?
Wu Yuanqing couldn't help lowering his voice and asked: "Second brother, how can it be so low? What product did he give us?"
Wu Yuanshuang also whispered: "Brother, I asked about Lao Huang. This may be what our girl means. It seems that our good girl has not forgotten her roots and her last name."
Hearing Wu Yuanshuang's words, Wu Yuanqing laughed a few times, and then said proudly: "This bitch is pretty good to say the least! After becoming the president of China Commercial Bank, he has not forgotten our Wu family."
Wu Yuanshuang gritted his teeth and said, "But if this bitch hadn't escaped in the first place, how could we have fallen into this situation?"
Wu Yuanqing said: "Second brother, what time is it now? Is it still interesting to say this again? By the way, you haven't said yet, what product does Lao Huang want to give us?"
No matter what the product is, the products produced by Chung Hwa Commercial Bank can be sold easily.
With a discount of 50%, the profit is truly astonishing.
Of course, even the products produced by Zhonghua Trading Company can be classified as extremely best-selling or moderately best-selling.
If it's extremely popular, that's even better.
Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but said: "Brother, what Lao Huang is willing to give us is a mirror. But Lao Huang said that if we want it, we can only eat this batch. This batch is worth 80 million yuan!"
"
hiss!
The mirror is a good thing, and it is definitely an extremely popular item.
But the total value of this batch of goods is really too high, actually reaching 80 million yuan.
In the past, eighty million dollars was really nothing if spent on their Wu family.
But now, they really can't afford so much money.
Wu Yuanqing couldn't help frowning and asked: "Second brother, we don't have so much cash, can't we have less?"
Wu Yuanshuang said with a sad face: "Brother, I told Lao Huang, but Lao Huang disagreed. Lao Huang said that he would only give us three days. If we want it, we will pay and deliver the goods.
If they don’t want it, they will give it to someone else.”
"Brother, do you think we want it or not?"
Wu Yuanqing gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, why not!"
Wu Yuanshuang sighed and said: "But we don't have that much money at all! We can only get 80 million yuan there!"
Wu Yuanqing gritted his teeth and said: "Second brother, if it doesn't work, we will mortgage our property. Sell what should be sold, and mortgage what should be mortgaged."
Hearing Wu Yuanqing's words, Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"Brother, if we do this, if we lose this business, wouldn't we have nothing?"
Wu Yuanqing said fiercely: "The profit margin is 50%. This is still a product of Zhonghua Commercial Bank. How can you accompany me? If we continue like this, won't we have to accompany you sooner or later?"
Um, that seems to be the case!
It's a slow death now, and if it continues like this, it will be over sooner or later.
At that time, they can only hold on to their current family business.
It is impossible to live such a luxurious life.
After thinking about it, Wu Yuanshuang said: "Brother, even so, it's still not enough!"
Wu Yuanqing gritted his teeth and said: "If it's still not enough, then borrow money! Can't we borrow money in Datang Bank? If we put our ancestral home in it, we will definitely be able to borrow enough."
The ancestral home of the Wu family is a large piece of land that has been owned by the elite for many years.
Wu Yuanshuang felt that this was inappropriate.
But if he didn't do this, he really couldn't figure out how to collect the 80 million yuan.
In the end, Wu Yuanshuang agreed to Wu Yuanqing's approach.
…
Recently, Yizhou Monthly published a new issue.
In the new issue, they grandly launched a new product of Chung Hwa Commercial Bank, which is a bicycle.
First, there are several color pictures of bicycles.
This bicycle is shining in the sun, and it looks very high-end and classy at first glance.
The shape of this bike is also very pleasing.
Well, it's a style they've never seen before.
The second picture shows the back of a man riding a bicycle.
After seeing this picture, they realized that this bike actually rides like this!
It looks like a lot of fun.
And riding this bicycle, you can travel at least forty miles in one hour (one hour is two hours).
The bicycle can carry more than 100 kilograms of stuff on the back seat.
hiss!
This is a bit scary. Carrying more than 100 kilograms of things, even if you can only run twenty or thirty miles in an hour, it is still quite fast!
Well, of course, this speed is actually about the same as a horse-drawn carriage.
It seems worthwhile to use bicycles to transport goods!
However, bicycles can still pass through some sections of road that are inaccessible to horse-drawn carriages.
If you think about it this way, the function of the bicycle will be greatly enhanced!
In short, because of this introduction, bicycles have aroused the curiosity of countless people.
And just after the report, countless Yizhou people and tourists from other places in Yizhou New City finally witnessed the true face of Lushan bicycles with their own eyes.
There are ten young people, each riding a bicycle, forming a bicycle team, and then the bicycles circle around Yizhou New Town.
The people in Yizhou New City just thought it was very novel and fun.
It is also very convenient.
Let's just say that in Yizhou City, you can't ride a horse.
Riding a bicycle is much faster than riding a sedan or horse-drawn carriage.
But those tourists who come to Yizhou have different views.
What they want is not speed and agility, what they want is style!
This bike is so cool to ride on, it’s definitely more impressive!
They believe that this bicycle will be a symbol of identity and status for a long time to come.
I just hope that the price of this bicycle is not too low.
Yes, what they want is that the price should not be too low.
Because if the price is too low, it will not reflect their identity at all!
Then, many people gathered around and asked these riders about the prices of their bicycles.
Then I learned that it was sold in the Chinese Commercial Bank.
And the price is only a mere 10,000 yuan.
However, due to difficulties in manufacturing bicycles, there are currently only 40 bicycles in the first batch. If you arrive late, you will not be able to grab them.
What?
The price of a bicycle is only 10,000 yuan? Is it so cheap?
Moreover, there are only forty cars in this first batch!
Too little, I’m afraid there won’t be enough to grab!
After hearing this, they had no intention of watching these bicycle performances.
They all ran to the headquarters of China Commercial Bank to buy bicycles.
Well, actually, the first batch of bicycles built, there were a hundred of them.
However, Li Min took out twenty cars and displayed them as advertisements.
Forty vehicles were launched in Yizhou Xincheng and forty vehicles were launched in Chang'an.
In this way, one hundred vehicles will be arranged.
Not long after, a group of people rushed to the headquarters of Zhonghua Commercial Bank in Yizhou New City.
After arriving, these people couldn't wait to shout: "Bicycle, give me a bicycle! I give you cash, I have banknotes!"
"I want ten cars, I want ten cars, the money will be here in a minute!"
"I've contracted these forty cars! Everyone, please go back. They're gone. They're gone. I want all forty cars."
"Why should I give it to you? Why? Are you talking about first-come, first-served?"
"Don't grab it, everyone, don't grab it. There are less than forty people coming now. Everyone has a share of one car per person. Now everyone, hurry up and line up, others will squeeze in later. Otherwise, the people coming behind will
If there are too many, we might not be able to grab them."
The place was noisy and chaotic.
But what this person said later reminded everyone.
That's right, if they don't line up quickly, they might not be able to grab the ones who came first when the people coming later are crowded.
So, these people quickly lined up.
Then I met people who came running over later, and they were shouting collectively.
"Line in line, line up! Everyone after you will line up!"
"This is a Chinese commercial bank. There is no queue. You will be beaten and thrown out without any explanation!"
"Waiting in line, can you have some quality?"
As a result, the forty customers in front all happily picked up a bicycle.
Even if he didn't bring any money, he would quickly order his entourage to get the money.
No one who can come here is short of money.
And those customers after forty are not happy because the goods will be out of stock when they arrive.
The waiter immediately told them that reservations were accepted on site.
Because rubber trees are still small trees, not much rubber has been harvested this year.
With full calculations, we can manufacture tires for more than a thousand bicycles at most.
In Yizhou New City, the number of reservations that can be accepted is not too many, at most a hundred vehicles.
Because they can't reserve all of them, they still have to sell some of them.
When these customers heard that even the pre-sale now only accepts 100 places.
I no longer care about complaining.
"Here, this is my five thousand dollars. Remember, give it to me as soon as possible after it is produced!"
"Here, my 10,000 yuan, pay in full! You can't miss me now, can you?"
"My, my 20,000 yuan! Reserve two bikes. What? You can only reserve one? Well, then just keep the 20,000 yuan with you. When you give me the bike, you can ask me for another 10,000 yuan..."
Of course, in the end, he only received 10,000 yuan on site.
I have never heard of a situation where the money you get for a reservation is double the price of the product.
Because the pre-sale was so popular, the first customer who paid 5,000 yuan for the reservation felt that it was not safe, so he then paid an additional 5,000 yuan to get it done.
Well, if you want to make a reservation, you can spend half of the money to make the reservation. It’s really not a small amount.
But now, for all of these products, you have to pay the full price to reserve them. Many people even want to pay more, but they don’t want it...
From this point of view, it is really not safe to book at half the price!
It is better to book in full, as it is safe and secure.
Not long after, all the 100 reserved places were released.
Later customers couldn't even get their reserved seats, so they could only leave with a sigh.
This is evident from the booming sales of bicycles.
Li Min saw this scene and decided to increase the scale of rubber tree planting.
Of course, in the second year, the rubber trees planted in the first year are one year older and can produce more rubber.
But the supply is still in short supply.
Moreover, the most widely used application of this tire should not be limited to bicycles.
More should be placed on civilian use.
For example, small carts and bullock carts.
If more tires for these two types of vehicles are produced, people will be able to save a lot of trouble.
The carts currently used by the public are all made of wooden wheels.
The planting weight is small, the car is very heavy, and the wheels are not strong enough.
It will fall apart after just a few uses.
Once tires are applied, this situation will be improved a lot.
Therefore, Li Min decided to vigorously promote the planting of rubber trees starting this year.
Of course, those farmers who planted rubber trees last year have already tasted the benefits.
Although it is only the first year, the output is not high.
But it is still higher than their income from growing crops.
And every year from now on, the output will be much higher and the income will be higher and higher.
I believe that with their publicity, many people will be willing to plant rubber.
…
Bicycle promotion in Yizhou New Town is not over yet.
Behind the bicycle team, there were a large number of people.
Wherever he passed, life was full of excitement, and countless people applauded him.
A bicycle promotion almost caused a sensation in the entire Yizhou New Town.
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Chang'an, a unique bicycle promotion activity was also underway.
The people doing the promotion here are Cheng Chuliang and their friends.
These people, these people have been honing their straight-line driving skills.
Nowadays, bicycles are really fun to play with, and all kinds of fancy riding skills are coming one after another.
The people following him stared straight in the eyes and burst into bursts of cheers.
Then, Cheng Chuliang and his group of friends started playing even more energetically.
And Chang'an City is the place with the most second-generation ancestors.
When those second-generation ancestors saw the bicycle, their eyes were almost dazzled.
It’s so fun! No, I have to buy one of this bike no matter what!
At this time, as soon as Fang Yiai came out, she saw the bicycle and couldn't take her eyes away.
It just so happened that these people were all acquaintances.
Fang Yiai couldn't help but ask: "Cheng Chuliang, what do you call this ride?"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help but said: "This is called a bicycle! How about it? Is it cool? Is it cool? Isn't it cool?"
Fang Yiai couldn't help but ask: "Cheng Chuliang, where can you sell your bicycle?"
Cheng Chuliang explained: "This is produced by Zhonghua Commercial Bank. You can buy it at the headquarters of Zhonghua Commercial Bank in Chang'an City."
Fang Yiai said breathlessly: "Cheng Chuliang, ride slower and wait for me!"
It turned out that Cheng Chuliang was talking to him while riding his bicycle, and Fang Yiai was asking while running. It would be weird if he wasn't tired.
Cheng Chuliang laughed and said, "Don't you see that I, old Cheng, are busy with business? Fang Yiai, please stop chasing me. You can't catch up with me!"
Fang Yiai asked from behind: "Cheng Chuliang, how much does this bicycle cost?"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help but said: "It's very cheap, only 10,000 yuan!"
"What?" Fang Yiai was startled and couldn't help but said, "Aren't you trying to steal money? Why is it so expensive?"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help curling his lips and said: "10,000 yuan is too expensive for you? What a poor guy! I tell you, this bike will be robbed today. Don't you think it's too expensive? There are many people who don't think it's expensive. Poor people
You don’t deserve to own a bicycle!”
Fang Yiai couldn't run anymore, and he wanted a bicycle so much, and he didn't have so much pocket money.
How to do it?
After a while, Fang Yiai gritted his teeth and decided to go home to meet his father.
It just so happened that I had a rest today and my father was at home.
Well, the reason why Li Min chose to promote today is because today is a holiday.
Not long after, Fang Yiai returned home and found his father, Fang Xuanling, in the study.
When Fang Xuanling saw Fang Yiai, she suddenly felt disgusted.
"Niezi, what's the matter with you?"
There is nothing better than a son like his father, and Fang Xuanling knew his son very well.
When you come to him, make sure you don't ask him any academic questions.
Fang Yiai couldn't help but said: "Yeah, give me 10,000 yuan, I want to buy something."
What? Just ask for 10,000 yuan?
Fang Xuanling couldn't help being so angry with Fang Yi that she was about to get angry.
But when she thought about Fang Yiai's invulnerable and lazy look, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but feel discouraged. She was too lazy to get angry with him.
"No!"
Fang Yiai was anxious: "Yeah, I want 10,000 yuan this time. It's really not a waste of money. I just want to buy a bicycle. Give me 10,000 yuan and let me buy a bicycle. I promise to be a good boy in the future."
!”
Um?
What on earth is this bicycle? How can it have such magic power?
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but ask: "Tell me, what exactly is this bicycle?"
As soon as Fang Yiai heard that there was a door, she quickly said: "Dad, this bicycle is so big and like this! When you ride on it, use the two pedals with your feet, you can run very fast! This bicycle is too long.
It’s windy! If I don’t have a bicycle, I won’t be able to say hello to people when I go out!”
Fang Yiai introduced it for a long time, but Fang Xuanling didn't even understand what this bicycle was.
However, it is probably just a new type of car.
Therefore, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but said angrily: "Nie Zi, what kind of bicycle do you want?"
