Chapter 244: Missing Modern Transportation

As soon as Gu Xiaoyou sat down, the owner of the carriage and horse shop respectfully brought the teacup in front of her: "Please have tea."

"I'm not thirsty, let's talk about the carriage first." Gu Xiaoyou casually put the tea cup aside and said straight to the point.

"Okay, okay." The owner of the carriage and horse shop obviously couldn't wait. He responded and carefully laid out the drawings on the desk.

"Please tell me about the structure of the carriage." The owner of the carriage shop said politely, "Let's start with this board."

"Okay, this carriage is like this. You see, this board doesn't exist. I hope it can replace the curtains on the windows. You can just lower them to cover the windows. It's a bit like the windows of a house." Gu Xiaoyou carefully put the board in place.

The function of the board is explained.

The owner of the carriage and horse shop's eyes brightened as he listened. He didn't expect that the carriage windows could be designed in this way. Then he asked several detailed questions on the drawings. Gu Xiaoyou answered them one by one, explaining the external structure and internal structure of the carriage.

The details are explained one by one.

Gu Xiaoyou's mouth felt dry as he spoke, so he picked up the teacup and drank two large sips of tea: "That's probably it."

"Miss, your idea is wonderful. This is the first time I've seen such an interesting carriage." The owner of the carriage and horse shop said with admiration. One of his usual hobbies is studying and manufacturing various carriages.

He thought he had studied all the carriages, and his horizons had been opened today.

"It's not all my idea, I just improved it." Gu Xiaoyou touched his face and said embarrassedly.

She relies on the master Baidu.

"Miss, you are so humble." The owner of the carriage shop smiled and asked with a bit of novelty: "May I ask, Miss, what is the purpose of customizing the carriage?"

Judging from the structure of the carriage, it doesn't look like it was used to carry people.

"Oh, it's used to make a dining car." Gu Xiaoyou briefly explained the idea of ​​a mobile dining car.

"It's really interesting." The owner of the carriage and horse shop's eyes lit up a little more when he heard this.

"Having said all that, can you make the carriage?" Gu Xiaoyou asked with concern.

"I can do it." The owner of the horse racing shop said confidently.

"As long as I can do it, by the way, I have to put some requirements on shock absorption." Gu Xiaoyou said seriously.

What is shock absorption? The owner of the carriage shop asked puzzledly: "Miss, please enlighten me."

"Shock absorption means that it can reduce the vibration of the vehicle." Gu Xiaoyou explained roughly: "After all, my car sells food, and there are iron barrels and charcoal in it. If the shock absorption is not good, the things in the car will shake out.

But that’s bad.”

"What you said is absolutely true." The owner of the carriage and horse shop thought for a while and said: "Nowadays, if the carriage can reduce the vibration, besides walking on a flat road and making a rabbit, it is to wrap leather on the wheels. However, if leather is added, the price of the carriage will increase.

It will be a little higher, Miss, you see..."

"Money is not an issue, as long as it can be guaranteed to be stable, you can probably quote a price." Gu Xiaoyou said cheerfully.

"Miss is a happy person. Let's do this. As long as she agrees to my unkind request, I am willing not to charge for the leather." The owner of the carriage and horse shop said cheerfully.

"Oh? Tell me." Gu Xiaoyou asked curiously.

The owner of the carriage and horse shop blushed a little, and said coyly: "I want to use the lady's drawings to make a small carriage."

"Oh, you want to get a small model." Gu Xiaoyou understood immediately. It turned out that he was addicted to collecting models.

"Yes, yes, I wonder what you think, miss?" the owner of the horse racing shop asked with a bit of shame, as if someone was spying on some big secret.

"Sure." Gu Xiaoyou agreed readily. Without waiting for the boss to thank him, he added: "But you have to keep the drawings secret. I am the only one in the capital."

"Yes, yes, yes, miss, don't worry, I won't reveal the secret of the dining car." The owner of the carriage shop quickly assured.

"Well, then when can you probably finish it?" Gu Xiaoyou asked.

"If you give me seven days, we will be able to build a dining car." The owner of the carriage shop said with confidence.

"Seven days... is quite fast. Let's do this. You build one first and then send it to Anyang Street in Lutan. Go to any shop on the street and look for Boss Gu. Someone will take you to see me."

Xiaoyou said as he took out his wallet: "How much money do you need?"

"I've never built a dining car before. You may have to build it before you know how much it will cost," the owner of the carriage shop said while looking at the drawings.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoyou thought for a while and said: "Then I will pay you a deposit for an ordinary carriage first. If it is not enough, you can send the carriage over and make up for it. By the way, you can also sell horses here. Pick a good horse and deliver it together."

come over."

With that said, Gu Xiaoyou took out the money from his purse and put it on the desk.

The owner of the carriage and horse shop did not hesitate, he accepted the money generously, wrote down the receipt and handed it to Gu Xiaoyou: "Don't worry, I will definitely pick a good horse for you."

"Then it's settled." Gu Xiaoyou accepted the receipt: "Then I'll leave first and see you in seven days."

"I'll see you off." The owner of the carriage shop personally sent Gu Xiaoyou to the hospital entrance, and then he couldn't wait to go back to his tool room and start studying the mobile dining car.

Unexpectedly, the ordering of the food truck went so smoothly, and he also got extra free leather fees. Gu Xiaoyou walked back to the parking place in a happy mood.

Looking at the bare wheels of his carriage, Gu Xiaoyou sighed: "Oh, no wonder my butt hurts from sitting on it."

Her carriage does not have an advanced shock-absorbing system.

The driver put down the pedal, and after waiting for a long time, Gu Xiaoyou didn't get on the bus. He turned around and saw her staring at the wheels in a daze, and asked in confusion: "Is there something wrong with the car?"

Only then did Gu Xiaoyou come to his senses, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Sighing deeply, Gu Xiaoyou held the coachman's arm and stepped onto the carriage.

"Miss, are you seated securely?" the driver returned to the carriage and sat down, asking as usual.

"Just wait a moment."

Gu Xiaoyou shouted and prepared the futon in the car. She chose to lie down this time to save her back pain and butt numbness. Everything was ready. Gu Xiaoyou lay down on the futon, raised her neck and shouted: "I

Okay, let’s go back to Anyang Street in Lutan."

"Yes, let's set off now, little one." The servant replied, raised his whip, and said "drive", and the horse immediately started running.

The carriage ran on the bumpy muddy ground. Gu Xiaoyou was inside the carriage, rolling here and there. After a while, he got up resignedly and sat back on the seat.

Lying down is more fatal. When sitting, only one part is hurt, but when lying down, the whole body suffers.

"Alas." Gu Xiaoyou sighed depressedly. Today is also a day when she misses modern transportation.
