With the construction of the bicycle workshop, Wuda spent a lot of silver. However, the finished product is still far from the ideal.

The bicycle itself is an extremely convenient means of transportation, light and easy to use, riding for a day will not be too tired, if running on the road, a specific bicycle can be forty miles per hour, that is, nearly eighty kilometers in one hour.

Summer days are relatively long, coupled with the physical fitness of people in this era, and the future generations of bicycle competitors should have a fight, four or five hundred kilometers a day is not a problem. However, the technology is not up to standard, the strength of various parts is enough, there is no trouble of cutting corners, but the problem is here, the workmanship is too solid, the bicycle is heavier than the electric car of later generations, naturally it will not be too fast.

In view of the fact that the production line has been established, Wuda does not want to make too many chicken rib products, so it has to be repeatedly polished and modified. Strive to make the best design and the most efficient bicycle.

After a few days, Wuda has been made mentally broken by himself. Some places are getting worse and worse, and some places are obviously quite reasonable in design, but after assembling, it just can't work.

Talent, or there is no talent around.

Wu Da also sighed. He is the only one who understands the basic structure of these things, but building a car also requires talent, maybe the talent is not enough, and the Wuda is tortured enough.

The bicycle factory has been producing for a month, and tens of thousands of bicycles have been built, although many people have bought them, but they still cannot satisfy Wuda.

In the past, making money was to earn a thousand taels of silver a day, and occasionally a wave could break out. The investment in this bicycle is quite large, and the sales volume is even average compared to other products, so many people work every day, and the whole family is busy. As a result, the family worked hard for a month, and in the last calculation, the income was about equal to zero. And, of course, a bunch of brand new bikes in stock. But only what is sold can be considered money.

At this rate of sales to production, it is extremely unhealthy.

On this day, Wu Da was tinkering with bicycles at home when he heard a whistle.

Not only him, but even his wife and daughter at home ran out, and the sound of flutes made them unaware.

The people of the entire Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures also put down their work and went to see the liveliness.

People followed the sound of the horn to find it, there was no entertainment in ancient times, except for war, any rare thing was the best gossip after tea.

In the distance, the railway side was full of people, a train with more than two cars long was speeding by, and the chimney on the locomotive was constantly erupting steam one after another.

"Is this the train?"

"Well, it's so big!"

"It's so long!"

"It's so loud!"

"It's spectacular!"

"This is much bigger than a horse-drawn carriage, at least a hundred carriages can compare with it, right?"

"Look, this train is running fast and steady, I'm afraid this steel behemoth is not a problem traveling thousands of miles every day, right?"

......

Wu Da also took his family to the railway station in Youzhou.

When they arrived at the station, the outside of the platform was already full.

With a piercing brake, tens of seconds later, the train stopped completely. The steam on the locomotive also slowly dissipated.

There were more than ten carriages, each of which opened its doors, and then one by one, the officers and soldiers got off the carriage in turn, and then opened the doors of the ten carriages behind.

The officers and soldiers first evacuated the crowd and made way for a road, and then Song Jiang and others led the convoy, blowing and beating all the way to welcome the arrival of the train.

Wu Da looked at the ten-meter-long locomotive and was also shocked.

This big song is still capable and enduring.

I thought that I had to do everything myself to achieve the extreme.

Result....

It's just that at the beginning I built a model machine that could barely walk, a track, and then I threw money hard, and the rest of the matter was left alone. These guys actually made a real train.

This is already fast, although I don't know exactly how much, but it is faster than a horse. Wu Da can only blame this because it is called blue out of blue and better than blue.

The train was making a fuss in the local area, and the imperial court also arranged people to introduce the train to the people.

What passenger transportation, freight, speed, where to go, are explained to everyone clearly. Moreover, since it is the first time it has been opened, the ticket is discounted within ten days. This allows many very ordinary and ordinary families to spend a few dollars to take a train.

Wu Da quickly collected all the stock bicycles and arranged for someone to send them to the train station. The officers and soldiers were considered the logistics personnel of this car, and they loaded the bicycles into the warehouse.

Pan Jinlian and the others also looked at these steel behemoths and were shocked.

"Why don't we take a car to Tokyo?" Can you come back in a few days?

"Then what are you waiting for, get in the car quickly."

"However, I heard that I want to buy train tickets... The people in line are much older...

Luo Die frowned: "Your own car, you still use money, is there any reason for this?"

Wu laughed and said, "Of course, we don't have to buy it, we have set up an exclusive seat for us, and follow me to the car."

Pan Jinlian: "Wait, I'll pack my luggage..." So

everyone packed up and stuffed them all into the space container in Sanniang's hand.

Two hours have passed and it is time for the train to go. Fortunately, Wuda greeted people, so the first train was delayed.

After the family had finished packing their things, they hurried to the station, so the family hurried on the train.

The seats in the car are similar to those designed at the beginning, with a row of two seats on the left and three seats on the right.

It's just that this carriage of theirs is more special, all chairs made of better materials, and a few small beds.

As the roar sounded again, the train slowly started.

The other passenger compartments were already standing with seats and were already filled with people.

Wuda also didn't know where these people came from so boldly, the first time they met the train, they dared to buy tickets directly to get on the train, but they heard that going to Tokyo could go back and forth in a day, so they bought tickets and boarded the train.

The speed of the car is getting faster and faster, and the scenery outside the window is rapidly receding. And the driving is particularly stable, and I don't feel the slightest discomfort.

It was getting dark. Although rail cars basically do not use lighting, the dark state is also easy to make people feel uncomfortable.

Suddenly, the lights came on. The carriage behind was very noisy, as if it had seen some miracle, and suddenly exploded.

"The car is lit up!"

"It's glowing!"

Wu Dacai remembered that there were no electric lights in this era, but the lights in the carriage couldn't help but surprise him.

Wu Da slapped his head and said, "Oh, I went and forgot about the electric light." I didn't expect that these people really made electric lights, what a group of capable people. "

Although it is just an idea, glass is used as the shell, and carbon filament is used as the filament. But Wu Da had no clue about the operation, and he did not understand how the carbon filaments could be connected together and very stable. I just remember that the first generation of light bulbs I learned in class was made of carbon filament. Moreover, in order to prevent the oxidation of the filament and affect the life of the bulb, the bulb also needs to be vacuumed, or filled with inert gas.

Hu Sanniang was also surprised, and when she heard Wu Da say this, she couldn't help but say: "Xianggong doesn't have to be presumptuous, I remember that you invented the light bulb." They can't do it without your guidance!

Wu Da smiled. I'm just a white.

Pan Jinlian's eyes lit up: "Xianggong, this electric lamp can sell for a lot of money, right?" "

Wu Da:"

..." "Maybe you don't understand it right, there is a light bulb, it can't light up..."
