Back to the Three Kingdoms and become a python

Zhen Ping got on his bicycle, and Lin Bei led the way, heading out of the city. Zhen Ping pedaled his bicycle very fast, but he couldn't catch up with Lin Bei.

At this time, Zhen Ping saw that besides self-powered, there is actually a kind of car that can run without animal power, "My lord, what kind of car was that just now?" Zhen Ping asked out of breath.

"Steam cars, just like steam ships, don't make up your mind."

Zhen Ping was shocked, Wanghai City already had such a fetish, no wonder he could casually sell them the manufacturing method of the bicycle. From Zhen Ping's eyes, he could see that the steam car was thousands of times better than the bicycle. times.

"It's a pity that this lord doesn't sell it." Zhen Ping felt extremely regretful.

Thinking all the way, Zhen Ping rode to the west gate. Lin Bei had already been waiting there. Seeing Zhen Ping coming, Lin Bei used his tail to guide the mountain road: "Zhen Ping, what do you think of this road?"

A five-foot-wide road is definitely not a big deal in modern times, but it is definitely considered a tall road in this era. The most important thing is that this cement road is not like a stone road. Can't see it, it looks like a whole, Zhen Ping looked at it for a while before saying: "My lord, this road is extraordinary."

"This road is built with cement, named Nanshan Road, with a total length of more than 410 miles. The road was not repaired when you came last time. It took less than two months to build this road. In addition, The Nanshan Road is extremely solid, even if you use a heavy hammer, you can't break through it, if it is used to repair the city wall, hehe..."

Zhen Ping attracted the information in the words, and immediately hissed. No wonder the Lord Dragon God said that cement is more effective than bicycles. If it is true, it can be called a god.

Chapter 258 Evaluate Yourself

Hu Laosan is very happy now.

As a newly emerging profession in Wanghai City: steam truck driver, Hu Laosan feels very comfortable every time he sees the envious eyes of the people around him.

Steam cars are now the hottest thing in Wanghai City, and steam car drivers are naturally very popular among Wanghai people. Drivers must choose from sergeants, and priority is given to sergeants who used to be craftsmen. Hu Laosan happens to be one of them .

Hu Laosan is quite satisfied with this job. What he has to do every day is to obey the order and drive the steam car to the designated place. Besides this, he needs to report the status of the steam car every day, which is very simple.

Just now Hu Laosan delivered a carload of coal to the dense forest transfer station, and now he is rushing back. At the end of the day, Hu Laosan will almost make two or three trips on Nanshan Road, at least two trips, and at most three trips.

"It's a pity that my lord said that alcohol is not allowed." Hu Laosan touched the Moluo fruit wine in his arms. This is his last pot. Hu Laosan is quite addicted to alcohol. In the past, he had to pour a small amount of wine every time he ate A few sips, but after a strict order was issued, Hu Laosan no longer dared to drink during the day, and could only drink a little after dinner.

This incredible order was naturally issued by Lin Bei, because once Lin Bei saw a sergeant drinking while adding coal to the steam engine, a word flashed in Lin Bei's mind at that time: drunk driving...so So he issued this order, because he was afraid that the sergeant would drive the steam car into the ditch.

No matter how absurd the soldiers think the order is issued, they still need to be respected. Anyway, Hu Laosan dare not disobey it. For the current Wanghai people, Lin Bei is really like a god. They only know the dragon god, but not the emperor.

Some coal was added to the steam engine, and Hu Laosan's face was blackened by the coal fire.Hu Laosan didn't mind, carefully dug out the cinders from the inside, and then put them into the wooden basket next to them. These cinders were to be used to make cement, so they couldn't be wasted. This was not an order from the adults.But some craftsmen told them.

After getting the coal ready and covering the stove with an iron sheet again, Hu Laosan's work was almost completed, and there was enough coal in the stove for the steam car to run to Wanghai City.

Suddenly, Hu Laosan blinked his eyes, and then quickly unscrewed the valve of the steam engine to slow down the speed of the steam engine, because he saw a lot of beasts lying on the road ahead. The body is quite large.There is also a single horn on the head, lying on the road, almost filling the road.

"There are so many rhinos? Why are they on the road?" Hu Laosan was very puzzled, and at the same time, he was a little anxious, so there was no way for the steam car to pass.

"Ha...ha...ha!!" Hu Laosan shouted, trying to drive away the rhinos on the road. The rhinos groaned and looked at the steam carriage.Finally, perhaps feeling threatened, several rhinos stood up.Walking to the side of the road and lying down again, it really freed up a space, enough for the steam car to pass.

The steam car slowly drove past the herd of rhinos. Hu Laosan was holding a long gun with cold sweat on his hands, for fear that these big guys would crash into the steam car.But when the steam car drove by, the rhinos didn't move. They seemed to just come to the road to bask in the sun and didn't want to cause trouble.

As a loyal believer of Lord Dragon God, he is also a very qualified sergeant.Hu Laosan naturally had to report this situation. At the same time, when he encountered a steam car on the road, he would tell other drivers that there was a rhino ahead, so drive carefully...

Hu Laosan's reminder was very effective, at least the steam car from Wanghai City to the dense forest transfer station did not have any accidents, and then Hu Laosan returned to Wanghai City.

Hu Laosan was going to report this matter to his superior, but when he saw Lord Dragon God at the gate of the city, he quickly stopped the car.

...

Lin Bei was discussing the price of cement with Zhen Ping. The price of a bicycle was 30 gold, but the price of cement was at least ten times higher.

"My lord, this price is really too much." Zhen Ping was very embarrassed. After Lin Bei explained the uses of cement in detail, Zhen Ping actually felt that the price of cement was invaluable, but Zhen Ping was not Zhen Rong, so he had to bargain.

"Is this still high? The cement production method is simple. As long as you know the production method, Mrs. Zhen can produce a mountain of cement in a few days. When the time comes, sell it to those tyrants, and the return will be higher."

"Having said that, my Zhen family can't bring out so many gold items. How about it like last time? How about my Zhen family bringing some people to the Central Plains for my lord to make money?"

"People need money, and money is also needed. In addition, it is best to buy with iron money."

"Iron money..." Zhen Ping was speechless. Money is worthless now, but the iron money is too heavy, and Zhen Ping hardly took it on board.

"What do adults need iron money for?"

"Molten into molten iron...to make a weapon..."

Zhen Ping was even more speechless, this lord's thinking is really strange.

Just as the conversation was not disturbing, Lin Bei heard a voice calling him, and looked down, but it was a sergeant: "What's the matter?"

Hu Laosan hurriedly saluted: "My lord, I just drove back from the interchange station in the dense forest. I saw a herd of rhinos crouching between Nanshan Road, blocking the road. I am afraid that something will happen to you, so I came here." Tell your lord."

"Oh? Another thing? How many rhinos are there?"

"About hundreds of them."

so much?Lin Bei could remember that rhinos are not beasts that live in groups, so Lin Bei couldn't figure out why they came to the road. After thinking for a while, he said, "Go and see He Ming and ask him to send some soldiers there to drive the rhinos away. , In addition, let He Ming also inform the driver of the steam car, be careful that there are other herds on the road."

"promise..."

After Hu Laosan left, Lin Bei said to Zhen Ping, "What about my proposal just now?"

"My lord, I haven't brought the iron money now, why don't I bring it for my lord next time?"

"Is that so..." Lin Bei pondered and said, "Your Zhen family should have a lot of ships, right?"

"My lord is saying that the money will be paid with a boat?"

"Of course, you brought more than fifty big ships this time. Although they are smaller than my big ships in Wanghai City, they are barely enough. So I allow you to use the ships to pay off the debt. One ship is equivalent to ten thousand gold? How about it?" ?”

Zhen Ping was dumbfounded: "My lord, my Zhen family doesn't have many such big ships. The cost alone is tens of thousands of gold, ten thousand gold is absolutely unacceptable..."

"So expensive? Isn't it just some wood and planks? Ten thousand gold is cheap for you." Lin Bei's voice was louder than Zhen Ping's.

Zhen Ping thought that Lin Bei really didn't understand, so he said patiently: "My lord, this kind of big ship is already the largest in the Central Plains. It's not easy to make. A ship can really be worth a hundred thousand gold."

"Then you actually ran away with nearly 500 million gold. You are rich enough... you are not afraid that I will snatch it from you."

Naturally, Zhen Ping didn't understand what a local tyrant was, but knowing the meaning just by hearing it was not a good adjective, and said with a wry smile: "A villain can trust an adult more."

Lin Beixin said that even I can't trust myself, but even so, Lin Bei really couldn't be ashamed to grab Zhen's boat, so he said: "Well, a new boat can be worth one hundred thousand gold, but this is Old boats are not as good as new ones. How about a [-]% discount, how about fifty thousand gold?"

Zhen Ping gritted his teeth: "[-] gold, the other can only be worth forty boats, I need to take the other boats back."

"Sixty thousand, no more."

"Eighty-five thousand gold..."

"Why are you doing this? Ten thousand and eleven thousand, what is five thousand gold? Let's take an intermediate value, 280 gold. Okay, that's it. Forty ships, right? A total of 220 million gold , Your Zhen Shi still owes me [-] million gold, now, let's talk about the tricks on Wanghai City."

Zhen Ping was in a daze, he actually sold the boat just like that?And still owed more than 200 million gold?
