Li Yuan wanted to see the excitement, and Tang Jian also wanted to see the excitement, but time did not allow him to continue to stay in Shanyin County, so Lao Tang could only take the earnest entrustment of Li Muyun and others and embarked on a journey to Yu Dujun Mountain.
On the other side, Li Muyun also began to build his exclusive carriage for Li Yuan's little old man, with four fronts and eight backs, and a twelve-wheeled carriage.
Why do you say that more wheels are not equal to luxury, you can pull it down, Li Muyun has no money in his hand now, and the money for six thousand war horses will have to wait for a while to be delivered, and even if he has money, he can't spend it in this shabby place in Shanyin County.
It's like the material used in the car box, Li Muyun originally wanted to use golden silk nanmu, but when he told the old Li Yuan, he was beaten by the old man, and finally told that the thing was used to make a coffin.
The golden silk nanmu can't be used, let's use red sandalwood, but Li Muyun inquired and found out that this is actually not good, it's not that there is no stock, but if you use red sandalwood, seven thousand guan is not enough at all.
Later, Li Muyun chose several materials, but the result was either not enough money or the materials were not suitable, and finally found that it seemed that it could only be made of pine wood, which was the most produced in Yinshan, which was not only cheap but also full of mountains, and did not cost money at all.
It is precisely because of this that Li Muyun had a whim, planning to build a unique top four and bottom eight for Li Yuan's little old man.
The length of the vehicle is more than four zhang, the width is about one zhang, the height is nine feet, the minimum ground clearance is one foot three inches, the car is equipped with a bedroom, a study, a living room, a bookcase, a wine cabinet, a bathroom, and is dragged by twenty-four Turkic horses.
Anyway, let's put it this way, from the design point of view of this carriage alone, if you don't consider the materials, it is indeed the only existence in Datang, if it is not for the identity of Lao Li Yuan, it is estimated that Yu Zhining will be the first to jump out and impeach Li Muyun for overstepping the system.
However, Li Muyun did not have the consciousness to go further and further on the wrong road, because in the previous life, there was no such thing as overstepping the system, so he did not consider this problem at all when he designed the carriage.
I have to say that Li Muyun's luck is indeed good However, the idea was good, but when it came to practical application, he encountered trouble again, the car was too long, and the hard axle had no way to complete the turn, and the helpless Li Muyun began to squat on the side of the carriage to be responsible for the project of transforming the frame.
Finally, at the end of July, the frame was rebuilt and the original differential was installed, and the carriage was finally able to steer smoothly.
All this is thanks to Li Muyun's six degree certificates, if there is no one for the mechanical major, if there is no effort back then, Comrade Xiao Li at this time can only stare helplessly.
Lao Li Yuan was overjoyed after seeing the first four and eight after the completion.
He has enjoyed many luxurious things in his life, but he doesn't really care much about the refinement of the materials.
What really cares about him is the feeling of being a maverick and being self-serving.
The front four and eight crooked ones designed by Li Muyun personally catered to his heart, which made old Li Yuan unhappy.
So after the old man circled the carriage a few times, he patted Li Muyun on the shoulder excitedly: "Good boy, this carriage is good, it is magnificent enough."
"It's all your father's guidance, otherwise I wouldn't have this ability."
Li Muyun smiled awkwardly, and said secretly in his heart: In the eyes of this old man, daring to love is the truth, and being big is magnificent.
However, Old Li Yuan didn't know what Li Muyun was thinking at this time, and after complimenting him, he walked up the ladder placed at the door of the carriage.
In the past, you had to bend down to get into the carriage, but this time you don't need to, the nine-foot-high trunk is like a special bus, which can completely allow Lao Li Yuan to go in with his head tilted, and the door close to three feet also makes it possible for this old man to enter the carriage by going through the city gate.
As soon as you enter the carriage, you will see the living room, and the most eye-catching thing is a small square table in the middle of the living room, and some wooden blocks in the middle of the square table.
"What is this" Li Yuan grabbed a piece of wood casually, put it in his hand and looked at it, and asked Li Muyun who was following behind him by the way.
"It's called mahjong, and it's a tool for entertainment."
Li Muyun said as he explained the simplest way to play mahjong.
"Well, this one seems to be interesting."
Old Li Yuan listened for a while, showed an interested expression, and glanced at Yu Zhining: "Zhining, do you understand?"
"I guess I understand."
Yu Zhining said implicitly.
In the face of the old emperor, Yu Zhining is still a subordinate no matter what he says, it is impossible to put on a look that he is smarter than his superiors, even if he understands, he must pretend to be half-understood, this is the way of being an official, and it has nothing to do with character.
"Chen Mu, what about you" Old Li Yuan looked at Chen Mu who came up again.
"Half understood."
Chen Mu didn't have Yu Zhining's wisdom, and he was still entangled in those rules.
"It's okay to understand half of it, let's play first, and get familiar with it."
Li Yuan was never vague about what he was more interested in, and he was the first to pull out a chair and sit on the side of the table.
When the other people saw him sit down, they naturally sat down as well.
In the first round of cards, because everyone is not familiar with the rules, they have not played any lottery, and they should be familiar with the rules when they take turns to sit in the banker.
By the second round, several people were familiar with the basic rules, and naturally they all started to bet.
Eight rounds of cards, played for a whole afternoon, until it was late, the game was scattered, and the result was not unexpected, naturally Li Muyun won the goods, but fortunately the first time to play, everyone bet is not very big, even if someone wins, there is only a few hundred dollars of income.
However, these are not the point, the point is that through Li Muyun's words and deeds, mahjong has emerged for the first time in Datang, and it will definitely blow a new trend in the near future.
It's just that these have nothing to do with Li Muyun, this guy is just a killer who is extremely unlucky, and whether mahjong will affect the future of Datang is not something he cares about.
After dinner, Li Yuan had to sleep in the carriage with the strength of wine, but Yu Zhining couldn't persuade him, so in the end he could only follow his wishes and let him sleep in the carriage.
There was no word for the night, and the next morning, when everything was ready, twenty Turkic horses were put on their halts and pulled to the front of the carriage and put on the wheels.
Wheels, in fact, here to say, in fact, in our country most of the wheels are actually hard, that is, made of strong wood, such a structure has the advantages of what are the advantages of not to mention, the most important point is that it is not conducive to steering, but also not conducive to the traction of multiple war horses.

Therefore, the carriage designed by Li Muyun this time changed the previous practice, and all the wheels were replaced with soft ropes, with every four horses in a row, and the front was balanced, and it was also a horizontal wooden pole to limit the position of this row of war horses.
There were six rows in this arrangement, or a total of twenty-four horses.
However, because of the change of the wheel to soft quality, although the number of war horses is large, it does not affect the control, as long as the driver of the carriage is capable enough, he can completely control the twenty-four horses.
The horses were put on the wagon, the skids under the wheels were removed, and the first four and the last eight slowly moved forward with the horses' movements under the shouts of the thorns.
Most of the turtles in the cottage have seen a carriage with wheels, and four-wheeled carriages are rarely seen, and now a twelve-wheeled carriage is moving in front of them, how can this not be surprising.
Li Yuan in the carriage seemed to be satisfied with this effect, waving his hands through the open window, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
I have to say that although the materials of this carriage are not very good, it is indeed big enough, so big that it is staggering, and so big that it can't get out of the village I can't get out of the walled gate, oh no, it's not that I can't get out, but the road up the mountain outside is too narrow, and there is no way for the one-zhang-wide carriage to complete the turn.
Therefore, Comrade Lao Li was unexpectedly stuck in the middle of the road, unable to go down and down, and unable to go up.
The cheers behind him continued, but Old Li Yuan's face was turned into pig liver color, pointing at the embarrassed Li Muyun, and it took a while to hold back a sentence: "Rebel, what's the matter with your pig's brain hitting the door frame?"
Li Muyun was scolded by the old Li Yuan and couldn't cry or laugh, and said in his heart that this old man was really interesting, and he still had the heart to say witty things at this time, and he hit the door frame with his pig's brain, and he didn't know how he thought of it.
Could it be that I used to hear myself scolding others for hitting a pig with their brains, and their brains were squeezed by the door, and this old man was in a hurry to get together and say it But thinking about it, his movements were not slow, and as soon as Lao Li Yuan finished scolding, he gave Chen Mu a look: "Wood, take the old man out of the car, hurry up, I'm afraid that this car can't be contained, in case it falls outside the road, the calf will be finished." ” Chen Mu naturally sensed that something was wrong with the situation, as soon as Li Muyun finished speaking, the person had already come to the side of the old Li Yuan, and regardless of whether the old man objected or not, he picked up and ran to the door of the car.
At this time, the turtles in the cottage also saw that something was wrong with the situation, and they didn't care about cheering anymore, so they rushed out of the village in a swarm, grabbed the back of the car and began to go back.
However, the first four and the last eight are too heavy, and they can't be dragged by a dozen people at all, and because the carriage is blocked in the middle of the road, the others can't pass, so they can only watch.
In the end, it was the blacksmith Zhong who had an idea and shouted: "Find a stone to cover the wheel, cover the wheel, quickly" Looking for stones, where to find stones at the gate of this special cottage, whether it is a trailer or an eye, all of them are a little blind.
But fortunately, there were still a few people in the stockade, and when they saw this situation, they immediately picked up the skids that had been thrown aside on the ground, and rushed out of the stockade with a roar.
With the concerted efforts of everyone, the first four and the last eight were finally stabilized, and there was no danger of falling into the ravine.
Chen Mu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, looked at Li Muyun and scolded: "Your uncle, I was almost killed by you." ” Li Muyun didn't know that Chen Mu's so-called death meant that Li Yuan would be beheaded if he didn't protect him well, and thought that he was saying that the carriage almost fell into the ravine because he couldn't complete the turn just now, so he didn't care much, just looked at Li Yuan and asked: "Father, you have also seen this situation, are you still sitting in this car?"
"Nonsense, of course I have to sit."
Lao Li Yuan was on the side of the road, looking at the first four and eight who were parked crookedly in the middle of the road, and said persistently: "Send someone to dismantle the car and carry it to Lao Tzu down the mountain in a while, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that it is so difficult to take a carriage":
