"You keep going, I'll take a look there." Suddenly I felt itchy. The leader of the caravan, Audre Saba, said a word to the vendors behind him, instigated the camels and rushed to the water truck on the riverside.

In his eyes, the water wheel was not a new thing. From Fushui to Persia, many countries along the way used water wheels to irrigate farmland and grind rice flour. However, it was the first time he had seen a two-story water wheel in his life. He intuition clearly told him that the strange-looking house next to the water wheel was not used to grind the flour. Otherwise, the sound of metal collision would not be so intense and harsh.

A few of the people watching the fun were not pure Tang people. Therefore, the joining of Audrey Sabah did not cause any repulsion. With the abortion, he soon came to the water truck by the river. However, just as he climbed down the camel and was about to come to the strange-looking house to find out, several soldiers suddenly stood in front of him without warning.

"Stop!" The team leader pressed the hilt of the knife with his hand and shouted sternly with a vigilant face, "It's okay to watch the fun, but you are not allowed to cross the white line without permission. Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

"This, this..." Audrey Sabah was shocked and then realized that around the strange house, there were a circle of eye-catching white lines drawn with lime. He quickly stopped embarrassedly and looked around with a red face.

Most of the people who watched the fun were concentrated next to the water truck. There were no more than ten people who were interested in strange houses like him. They were also blocked by the soldiers in charge of guarding from the white line, but the locals were not as guilty as him. While stopping, they bowed to the soldiers blocking the road: "June, is the one who commanded you to put the water truck just now, Zhang Zhenshou himself?"

"Mr. Jun. We just want to get closer and kowtow to the guardian, and thank him for his kindness."

"Mr. Jun. My family's lives are saved by the guardian. I just want to get closer and thank you for your life."

"Mr. Jun. Master, is the guardian good at recruiting troops recently? We want to join the army and eat food."

"June, is this room the factory mentioned in the notice? Why does it look different from the one in Chengbei..."

The soldiers who stood in the white line to be warned had a really good temper. No one was annoyed. While smiling and bowing to the people watching the fun, he explained loudly, "It was indeed my guardian who was commanding everyone to set up water trucks just now. But there is no need to kowtow. My guardian doesn't like people kneeling down and kowtowing at any time."

"This is just a workshop in the factory. Zhang Zhenshou is instructing craftsmen to work. Don't go in and disturb him!"

"The recruitment will definitely be, but after the spring sowing, we don't know which day we will. You can read the notice in the city or ask the village chief."

"Boom!" A loud bang suddenly interrupted all the noise around him. The ground under his feet trembled again. Then, Audre Sabah was surprised to see that a stone pillar that looked like a chimney on the top of the strange house had actually lowered three feet high.

"It's done, it's done, it's done!", "The guard is wise!" "Oh, oh, oh..." The cheers suddenly came out of the window, attracting the soldiers responsible for the guards around the outside, turning back enviously. Audresaba stretched his neck and tried hard to look at the window. Before he could understand what was the joyful event worth cheering in the room, another stone pillar like a chimney suddenly fell on the roof, "Boom!" The sound of the collision was earth-shaking.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." The sound of metal collision and friction suddenly became even sharper and sharper. The chimney-shaped stone pillar that had fallen before suddenly rose slowly again. Although the speed was very slow, the amplitude was clearly visible.

At the window, figures flashed. Cheers and metal friction and collision sounds intertwined, turning into an exciting music. Soon, the first chimney-shaped stone pillar had risen to its original position. Then, it fell again at a high speed, "Boom!" and smashed the land near the house up and down.

At this moment, it is probably tens of thousands of pounds of force that hit people, which will definitely smash people into meat paste. Audre Sabah didn't understand what the stone pillars in the chimney were used for. But he instinctively thought of the execution equipment displayed by the Great Food Conqueror.

Compared to the stone pillars in front of you, those execution tools such as beheading, shopping, and baiting are all tricks. Any punishment is probably not as good as tying people to a table and watching tens of thousands of pounds of stones fall from the sky, which makes people feel even more frightened and desperate.

However, soon Audrey Sabah overturned his own thoughts. Because he saw the second stone pillar rise again, he fell heavily. Accompanied by the harsh metal friction and excited cheers, two stone pillars of tens of thousands of pounds rose and fell alternately at a slow speed and a constant frequency. If they were used to smash people, they would have smashed people into powder long ago, and there would not be so many repetitions.

"Give it, let it, let it." A craftsman apprentice pushed a wheelbarrow out of the strange-looking house, his young face full of pride.

He deliberately showed off to the people watching the fun that he did not cover any cover on the wheelbarrow. Therefore, everyone quickly saw the objects in the car.

There are several iron billets that look weird but look familiar when they come up, or steel billets, with a faint red light on the surface. It is obvious that they were just created in the workshop, and the internal temperature has not yet cooled down. There is no need to guess the equipment to create these billets is the two stone pillars that repeatedly rise and fall on the roof of the strange house.

"What kind of magic weapon is this forging with tens of thousands of kilograms of strength?" Out of instinct, Audrey Sabah began to guess the purpose of this object as soon as he saw the billet. However, the next moment, he sighed and lowered his head, and his heart was quickly filled with bitterness.

He knew what the billet was for, no wonder. When he saw this object at first sight, he felt that the shape was familiar! It was a plowshare, a plowshare of the "car plow"! The two big knives used to turn the ground under the plow were indeed not made of pure steel. Instead, it was made of wood or other materials, and then a pure steel plowshare was installed!

Unless you move the strange house in front of you, it will be difficult to successfully imitate even if you buy a plow truck and bring it back to Persia. It is true that the horse plow speed is ten times faster than the ox plow, but the faster the speed, the more severe the wear of the plowshare will be. If you want to use it for a long time, you must use a specially-built plowshare. The strange-looking house in front of you is the key to building a plowshare.

He was not in the mood to continue watching the fun. He turned around and rode a camel and hung his head to chase his caravan. Because the road was getting more and more crowded, his caravan did not go too far. Soon, he reunited with his companions, and then, according to the guidance of enthusiastic people along the way, he found a warehouse that provided convenience for the caravans on the side of the road less than a hundred steps away from the city gate.

Strictly speaking, it cannot be called a warehouse. It is a large warehouse where warehouses can be rented, stored camels, and rented houses. Compared with warehouses in other cities and countries along the way, the rent of the warehouse is very fair, and the service level is more than one higher.

"Customer please sit inside and drink a bowl of milk tea. No charge, free gift!" Seeing new guests coming, enthusiastic and smart guys immediately carried a shiny copper pot and a clean wooden bowl, greeted him with a smile. Whether the guests decided to stay or left after a few glances, they would first place a bowl of steaming milk tea in front of the latter.

The amount of tea in the milk tea was very sufficient and the salt was added. After taking a few sips of Audrey Sabah, he cheered up again. He bought and copied the plow, but it was not the main reason for him to break leaves. He chose to take a detour to break leaves to open up a shorter trade route. Judging from the current observations, this decision should be correct, and it may also bring him many unexpected gains.

While comforting himself in his heart, he looked around with milk tea, preparing to find someone to come earlier than him, and to find out the basic situation in Saiye City from the other party. However, he was surprised to find that seven or eight colleagues were holding milk tea in their hands, gathering in front of a black wooden board in the inn lobby, pointing fingers.

"Saba, sell, the plow truck is sold openly here. We just now, we almost made a big mistake!" The old vendor Xibo ran over with milk tea and shouted at Audrey Sabah.

"Selling openly? How is it possible!" Audresha was stunned and asked instinctively.

"What's impossible? People have written it clearly!" Xibo nodded vigorously, and there was a rare trace of shame on his face as bark. "We have to be careful in the future. This place is completely different from the places we have been to in the past. The plow truck is not hidden at all. It is sold openly and can be ordered, and the price is not as expensive as two hundred scimitars!"

"Where is it written?" Audrey Sabah didn't believe his ears, and hesitated to stand up and asked in a low voice, "Did you see clearly? Are you doing it accurately?"

"It's written on the blackboard, including the price!" The old vendor Xibo pointed to the black wooden board with his finger and responded in a low voice, "The plow cart is thirty and one plow truck is hanged, and two sets of plowshares are also given. In addition, they also sell spinning wheels for spinning wool and looms for weaving cloth. The price is not expensive, and they are sold openly."

"Really?" It seemed as if a mountain of gold suddenly appeared in front of him. The leader of the caravan, Audre Saba, pushed away his old friend Xibo and quickly walked towards the black wooden board. In order to avoid the latter being misread and making himself happy.

As it turns out, Xibo is not wrong. The words Tang and Turkic on the blackboard clearly state the special goods that Saiyecheng can provide at present, as well as the transaction prices of these goods. From easy-to-carry wool cloth, Liushen flower dew, wild gold oil, herbs, to bulky spinning wheels, looms, and plow trucks, they will not fall.

However, the latter types of things indicate that the spot quantity is insufficient. If the buyer needs more than two aircraft, he must make a reservation. Pay a deposit of 10% first, and then pick up the goods in the Broken Leaf around August.

In addition, if the buyer can provide sulfur, turbulent oil, saltpeter and alkali blocks to Zayecheng, and reach a certain amount, he can obtain a priority coupon. With the priority coupon, he can pick up a plow truck, spinning wheel or loom on the spot, and the Liushen Commercial Bank in Zayecheng can guarantee supply at any time.

If the vendor does not have priority coupons and does not want to wait for the goods to be picked up in autumn, Liushen Commercial Store in Suoye City has also thoughtfully given a third choice, that is, go to Liushen Workshop outside Chang'an City to buy it. There is sufficient spot supply there, and even if the caravan wants to buy hundreds of plow trucks at a time, it can be guaranteed to be taken away within ten days.

"This Liushen Commercial Store should be run by the city lord's family, right? Why haven't I heard of it before in Chang'an!" A vendor muttered quietly while watching.

"That's because you are ignorant. Last spring, Liushen Trading Company beat the Great Cannibal Treasure Pavilion to the point where he could not stand in Chang'an City, so he obediently rolled up the bedding!"

"Ah, I remembered it. Yes, it's this Liushen Business Store! It sells a glass mirror that is only the size of a fist, but it's as high as hundreds of hangs."

"Last year, the business road was cut off, so I didn't dare to go to the Tang Dynasty. Unexpectedly, in a year, people drove the semicolon into the Thunderbolt City!"

"The city lord is so bold that he is willing to sell even a plow cart. It would be strange if this Ruiye City is not developed in the future!"

"I hope the city lord can defend it. It's too close to the sphere of influence of the cannibals."

"How do you speak? The big cannibal dares to fight openly, and it is going to war with the Tang Dynasty!"

"I'm really here right this trip. I can buy any of these goods and I don't have to worry about getting rid of them when I go back."

"Indeed, I'm right here this time!" Audrey Saba, the leader of the caravan, agreed in a low voice, then drank the strong tea in the cup, and took a big step towards the inn.

Based on his intuition, he judged that there must be more surprises waiting for him in the Thunder Ye City. He wanted to go in and take a look, but he couldn't wait!

…………

"Yong Zhao, I sold a total of twenty spinning wheels, fourteen pedal looms and three ploughs today." The door was gently pushed open. Luo Huaizu, dressed as a counselor, rushed into the study excitedly and placed an account book in front of Zhang Qian. "In addition, there are deposits for forty ploughs. Those vendors are really not stupid. They all know that after taking this thing back, they will definitely be able to increase several times."

"Thanks to uncle, otherwise the vendors might not be willing to pay such a high price!" Zhang Qian raised his head from a pile of copper parts, smiled, got up and poured Luo Huaizu a cup of tea, and praised him loudly.

"The plow cart you made is really useful. They can see it as long as they have eyes. I just took advantage of their thoughts that they wanted to steal but could not steal." Luo Huaizu was praised with pride, but pretended to be unwilling to take credit and waved his hand modestly.

Whether it was the duo of land reclamation far away from the city or the Duoli who were close to Suiyechuan, they were deliberately arranged under his plan. The purpose of the performance was first, and the detention itself retreated second.

The effect achieved by the performance was just as he expected. None of the caravans walking on the Silk Road was a fuel-efficient lamp. The fine works, scammers and robbers from all over the world were mixed in. After seeing the powerful effects of the caravans, the first thing they thought of was to get it at any cost and secretly transport it out of the Tang Dynasty.

Once the vendors have the idea of ​​"at all costs" in their hearts and find that stealing and robbing will risk being crushed, the price of the car plow will become dull. No matter how high the price the car plow is priced at, as long as they are willing to sell it, they will rush it!

"The benefits brought to Suye City by Uncle Master's move are not just the extra bonus!" Zhang Qian thought about what kind of temperament of Luo Huaizu had, and continued to praise with a smile, "All this year, vendors who traveled to and from the Silk Road could not put our Suye City in their mouths. As long as they were willing to come and go around, even if they didn't buy anything, they could bring new news and popularity to Suye City. What's more, they still had the hot turmeric oil we urgently needed."

"There are already three caravans who proposed to exchange for pulsing oil for pulsing. I agreed according to the quota system you mentioned. For every 5,000 pounds of pulsing oil, you can get the cooperation of a spot truck plow. Then the price of pulsing oil and the price of pulsing oil are compared with each other." Although Luo Huaizu likes to listen to people's praise, he smiled and happily turned the topic on the transaction. "However, the spot goods I have received in the past few days, with only more than twenty barrels in total, and all of them are less than two thousand pounds."

"It's okay, with the beginning, there will be a future. The key is to let them see the benefits so that they can deliver the goods continuously!" Zhang Qian smiled again, nodded slightly, his eyes full of expectations.

The lack of knowledge and conditions for industrial production of alcohol, and his current alcohol is all purified from rice wine. Rice wine is brewed by grain. In the case of small-scale production, there will be no serious consequences around Chang'an for the time being. If it is mass-produced and still in the Western Regions where food is lacking, it will be a bit harmful.

Therefore, it is imminent to replace alcohol with gasoline mixtures as fuel for the Fire Dragon Car. Even if the hot turkey is smuggled, the price remains high, it is better than using grain to make wine and then extracting alcohol from the wine.

In addition, without considering cost, product quality and refining efficiency, the process of separating the turbulent tin oil is not complicated at all than distillation to create alcohol. When making alcohol by distillation, he must at least use an iron pot, a piece of bamboo tube and a condensing tank. When separating the turbulent tin oil by the soil, according to some tricks of another time and space, he only needs to prepare two iron buckets.

"Can gasoline you mentioned really replace alcohol?" Luo Huaizu was a little worried, and suddenly put away his smile and lowered his voice to ask. "Niu Shizuo has been urging you to refine alcohol for him, and even used the four words "at all costs". If the things refined from the hot ignition oil are not as effective as alcohol. Although you are willing to save your life..."

"Don't worry, gasoline is ten times more effective than alcohol when used in Fire Dragon Cars." Zhang Qian was confident and answered neatly, "I have sent Guo Jing to stare and use an iron can to separate the hot turkey oil. You will soon see the results. There was no hot turkey oil before, and using alcohol was the expedient measure."

"That's good, so as not to feel that you are arrogant because of your favor." Luo Huaizu's heart finally fell to the ground and nodded with a smile. "Although that old guy is not qualified to rely on you, he can take care of you more, and you will be much smoother when you are broken leaves. There is no need to make him estrange you because of a few thousand kilograms of alcohol. In addition, although he doesn't care, you still have to express the respect he should show. As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiley faces..."
