HCB Chapter 428
Chapter 428
Outside the palace square, Ying Yu reluctantly lowered the speed of the steam car again, to the point where it was almost the same as walking.
In fact, more and more people came to watch the new cars, almost filling up the whole street.
In addition to the common people, many nobles along the way also came out of the mansion to watch the fun.
Typically, like Wang Jian who was recuperating at home, he dropped his teacup when he heard the news, and followed him on a bicycle.
After seeing the steam car driven by Ying Yu, Wang Jian instantly felt that his bicycle didn't smell good at all.
Although my own bicycle is a customized version, but in front of such a domineering steam car, this bicycle is simply incomparable.
One is a copper coin, and the other is a gleaming golden mountain. The gap is not a little bit big.
Sitting in a steam car is fast and stable, and you are not afraid of the cold wind outside. It is as comfortable as you want.
Wang Jian began to think about how to communicate with Ying Yu and get such a car for the Taiwei Mansion.
In addition to Wang Jian, Chun Yuyue and other Confucian disciples were among the onlookers.
The last time the Confucianism suffered a disastrous defeat, the bad deeds of Kong Xun and others were also found out one by one by Jin Yiwei, and they were all sent to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Ministry for joint interrogation.
Although Chun Yuyue himself was considered innocent and did not do anything harmful or corrupt, but because of conniving and concealing, he was dismissed from his position as servant and retired early.
At this moment, standing in the crowd, looking at the roaring steam car and the cheers of countless people around him, his heart suddenly mixed with emotions.
No matter how pedantic he is, he has to admit the creativity of science and technology in front of Ying Yu's incomparably miraculous achievements.
In this way, a car that only needs to burn coal and rely on a steam engine to move is unimaginable before.
But now, it truly appeared before the eyes of the world.
It's only been a mere month since the Daqin steam engine came out.
If this trend continues, all kinds of miraculous products that Ying Yu mentioned in the newspaper before will be researched one by one.
Chunyu Yue couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Maybe Confucianism should really usher in a big change.
His Royal Highness is right. Confucianism may have been fine in the past, but it has remained unchanged for hundreds of years, which is the biggest problem.
Now that the Great Qin has developed by leaps and bounds, Confucianism has not only failed to make outstanding contributions, but has even become a burden.
If we don't keep pace with the times, Confucianism will be completely eliminated.
Even if he is a well-known figure in Confucianism, there are only a few great Confucians left, but now his disciples are scattered, and many of them have learned the way of science and engineering instead.
Even the fact that he can live a stable life depends on the achievements of technology.
Chunyu Yue had to give in.
On the other side, Ying Zheng was also under the guard of Zhang Han and others, and managed to squeeze out a way.
After seeing the huge and mighty steam car, Ying Zheng and the others couldn't move their eyes away instantly.
Even Shi Huangdi, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, couldn't help being a little dumbfounded after seeing the actual steam car.
"Father, why are you here?"
"Come up, it's warm inside!"
"Yu Ji, go sit in the back and give up the co-pilot to Father!"
Ying Yu stepped on the brakes and pulled one of the car doors open.
The girl Yu Ji was very interested in steam cars, so she squeezed to the front after getting on the car, and wanted to learn driving skills from Ying Yu.
"After the new car arrives, His Royal Highness, you have to spend some time alone to teach me!"
Facing the first emperor, Yu Ji was still a little nervous, whispered something in Ying Yu's ear, and then hurried to the back seat.
And they all knew that this first steam car was a gift that Ying Yu was going to give to Ying Zheng.
However, the test run was quite smooth, so the batch given to them will be produced soon.
Just wait a few more days.
Concubine Yu, who loves to move and make trouble, is both civil and military, has a great interest in jumping horses and whips.
And this steel-built, mighty and majestic steam car is much more domineering than riding a horse.
Especially since this was invented by her beloved, Yu Ji naturally liked it even more.
Besides Yu Ji, Xiao Mei and Dia Ya also liked steam cars, even the most quiet Wang Ying was no exception.
However, they could tell the occasion clearly, so instead of continuing to act coquettishly with Ying Yu, they all bowed to Ying Zheng.
"The whole family is here, very good!"
Ying Zheng smiled and waved at Wang Ying and the others, and teased the two granddaughters who were curious and wide-eyed before sitting in the co-pilot seat, then glared at Ying Yu angrily, and said:
"Xianyang City has become such a sensation, I naturally want to see the situation."
"Quickly tell Father, how to drive this car?"
Seeing this, Ying Yu smiled faintly.
The old father, Ying Zheng, was obviously very happy, but he insisted on putting on a preaching appearance.
But since tomorrow is the new year, let Ying Zheng, a cheap dad, be happier for a while.
The car started slowly, and Ying Yu also opened his mouth to explain to Ying Zheng:
"Father, this is the steering wheel, which is used to control the steam car to move forward, backward or turn. It is the same principle as the rudder on the previous Daqin Treasure Ship."
"This is a throttle valve. The more it is opened, the higher the power of the steam engine and the faster it will be."
"This foot is the brake. When you need to stop in an emergency, step on it directly, and the brake pads will brake to stop the car quickly."
"However, please note that it is already cold, with a lot of rain and snow, and the road is easy to slip. Therefore, if you are a novice on the road, it is best to drive slowly."
"When Erchen goes back and sorts out a driving textbook, I will send it to you, Father, and then arrange the driving training venue and special training vehicles."
1 Ying Yu carefully introduced the steam car to Ying Zheng.
The driving of a steam car is much more complicated than that of a bicycle.
Ying Yu didn't dare to let Ying Zheng manipulate it at will like a bicycle, so he could only give key reminders when explaining the principle.
Otherwise, with Yingzheng's character, it is estimated that when the car is driven to its fullest, it will be the throttle valve opened to the end and run wildly. Without good skills, traffic accidents will easily occur.
"It counts as you have a heart."
Ying Zheng said cheerfully.
Although the Year of Destiny has passed, but due to the rapid development of Daqin, the government is well-organized and the people are harmonious, Yingzheng's mood has always been very comfortable, and his complexion is getting better and better.
And what made him most happy was Ying Yu's filial piety.
This is what Ying Zheng cares most about now.
The children and grandchildren are full of children and grandchildren, reunited for the New Year, and enjoy themselves!
