Chapter seven hundred and eighty nine: exclusive

A few days later, Ye Chunqiu received a letter and Wang Hua entered the capital. The arrival of this father-in-law shocked Ye Chunqiu's spirit. Early in the morning, Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren had already arrived at the pier of Tonghui River.

Wang Shouren has arrived in Beijing these days. The disaster in Datong has eased. The next thing is the court. He is still training troops in the new army of Zhenguo, but today he has taken a leave and is waiting here with Ye Chunqiu.

At noon, an official boat arrived here and approached the shore. He saw someone helping Wang Hua off the boat. Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Wang Hua was in good spirits. When he saw Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren, he felt very comforted. He couldn't see the exhaustion of the dust on his face. He smiled and said, "No need to be polite. Really, you are not seeing a few letters coming in the capital. Are you just busy like that? Well, you are all ambitious people, I am old."

Although he was blamed, he did not look angry. Ye Chunqiu smiled and helped him out of the pier.

Behind Wang Hua, two people winked at Ye Chunqiu. Who were they not Chen Rong and Zhang Jin?

Zhang Jin still looked like a robber, with a few traces of time on his face; Chen Rong also had a beautiful beard and had a little fat belly, which was not as romantic as the young man in the past. Ye Chunqiu was not good at greeting them, and obediently begging in front of his mentor: "What did the teacher say? I said that my senior brother has already gone to study. I must have mentioned my recent situation and don't want to do this too much."

Wang Shouren did not expect that Ye Chunqiu shamelessly pushed all the responsibility to him, and immediately said: "I also said that Chunqiu has gone to study books, but he was waiting for me."

Wang Hua shook his head helplessly. There was a carriage waiting in front of him for a long time. Wang Hua didn't expect that it was not a sedan chair that greeted him, and he was a little surprised.

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Mr., this is a new thing for students. This is the only one in the world. It has been specially customized. I want to give it a try for me."

However, this carriage is a bit different. There is a special hanging ladder for getting on the car. It is not a carriage from the shaft, but an independent carriage. The carriage is completely separated from the horse in front, and the wheels at the bottom are actually shining. Pay attention, it is not wooden, and the wheels are actually covered with skin.

Wang Hua got on the car with a lot of curiosity. As soon as the door closed, the entire carriage seemed to be isolated from the noise outside. The carriage began to move slowly, with some bumps, but it was acceptable. The most important thing is that the carriage was running very smoothly. Although the wheels would pass through the gullies, there was no such hard bump. I don’t know if the wheels filtered out the bumps or the unique terrain under the seat filtered it. It should be that the sealing of the carriage accounted for a large reason. This is a wonderful feeling, completely different from the carriage that Wang Hua had ridden before.

The surroundings of the car were covered with skin, so after touching it, it felt pretty good and there was no odor. The seats on the top were not wooden, and it seemed to be filled with something, and the buttocks fell. This made the rocking feeling brought by the rocking chair, rather than the bumps of the continuous collision between the hips and the wooden seats.

Wang Hua was still full of energy when he got off the ship, but when he entered the sealed carriage and sat on the soft chair, he was a little tired and couldn't help but doze off. At some point, Ye Chunqiu opened the car door and said respectfully: "Mr., you're here."

Wang Hua was awake and stunned for a moment. He didn't know how long he had slept. He knew that he was shaking and was indeed comfortable and comfortable. He couldn't help but have a good sleep. He couldn't help but smile. Ye Chunqiu led out of the carriage, and the noisy sound outside entered his ears, as if he had suddenly gone from birth to entry. His eyes narrowed, and he seemed a little uncomfortable. When he gradually got used to the light, he smiled and said, "What kind of car is this? I can sit comfortably with this old bone."

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "This car is called a crane carriage, which means it is floating and ecstasy. Naturally, this crane is another pattern in the first-rank official refill, which means it is the first-rank official."

Wang Hua laughed and said a little annoyed: "I'm not asking this."

Ye Chunqiu had to laugh and said, "It is the first carriage in the newly built car yard of Zhenguo Mansion. The so-called crane carriage is actually far-fetched and is specially used to fool those... Cough cough... This car is made of alloy and is supplemented by wooden decorations..."

"Okay, okay..." Wang Hua smiled and said, "No need to explain in detail, I can't understand it either, but this car is indeed very comfortable to sit."

Ye Chunqiu hurriedly said: "This is the first car in the Chefang. It is specially made and exclusive. The price is only 388 taels of silver. Of course... This is what the students respect to their mentors. Look, there are inscriptions on this carriage."

As expected, Wang Hua saw a gold-burned inscription in the carriage, with the words "Yuyao Wangshi" written on it, and there were small characters on the bottom of the flies, with the official name written on it.

Wang Hua didn't feel embarrassed. This was his disciple and would be his son-in-law in the future. Ye Chunqiu was filial to him, but the car was really comfortable. He couldn't help but say, "Isn't the car equipped with a chair?"

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "That's the sofa."

"Oh." Wang Hua seemed to understand.

This sofa is really important for Ye Chunqiu. After all, no matter how shock absorbed the carriage in this era, it still had bumps. Even the cement road was roughly the same. Using the sofa as the seat completely eliminated the slight vibration. Of course, the cost of this carriage is not small, and this carriage alone costs nearly 600 taels of silver.

However, because it was the first car, almost everything was customized, and the price was naturally much higher. If it was mass-produced in the future, the cost could be reduced to at least 200 taels. Ye Chunqiu's price of 388 taels of silver was actually considered the conscience of the industry. His targets were mostly those noble people who usually rode in sedan chairs. These people were rich, and the local rich men had to hide in their own cellars, and they only entered and did not leave. If they wanted to pay, they would be willing to pay.

Ye Chunqiu looked at Wang Hua carefully and couldn't help saying, "Teacher, if there is a choice between a sedan chair and this carriage, which one would the teacher choose?"

This is an important customer, you have to listen to the customer's opinions.

Wang Hua stroked his beard and hesitated for a moment, then said, "Choose both."
