Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1394, Wang Gensheng buys a car
As the New Year's Eve gets closer and closer, the entire Beijing-Tianjin area is filled with New Year's celebrations.

Stores are also starting to prepare for the big sales at the end of the year. Every year at the end of the year is the best time of the year for business.

There are many factories, workshops, and commercial firms in the Beijing-Tianjin area. At the end of the year, according to the Ming Dynasty’s Humu Code, annual leave is required. A large number of workers hold a year’s hard-earned money in their hands, so they naturally want to spend a lot of money. Only after buying some will you happily return to your hometown for the New Year.

Here in a bustling commercial street in Xincheng, South District of Beijing, at the entrance of a new store, accompanied by bursts of firecrackers, beating of gongs and drums, and the sound of lion dances, this brand-new store officially opened its festive red cloth, revealing its true face.

The huge Mercedes-Benz logo is rimmed with pure gold, which looks resplendent and resplendent. The full floor-to-ceiling glass facade allows people to see clearly the brand-new Mercedes-Benz bicycles placed inside at a glance. The words "Bicycle Beijing Experience Store".

Obviously, this store is the direct store and image store started by Mercedes-Benz Bicycle Factory in Beijing, the main purpose is to promote bicycles.

"What is a bicycle?"

People passing by looked curiously at the bicycle shop in front of them, and at the bicycles parked inside, they were very curious.

"I don't know. The name is called a bicycle. It must have something to do with the car."

"Look at this strange car again. It only has two wheels, and there is no room for an ox-horse cart. How can this car get around?"

"bike?"

"Could it be that he will leave by himself?"

The curious people looked at the many bicycles in the bicycle shop and began to guess.

At this time, the waiters in the bicycle shop came out one by one pushing a bicycle, and lined up on the spacious concrete road. There were a total of thirty bicycles.

There is a flagpole above the seat behind each bicycle with an advertisement for Mercedes-Benz bicycles.

Mercedes-Benz bicycle, the first bicycle in life, choose Mercedes-Benz.

Mercedes-Benz bicycles can travel hundreds of miles a day, and the fuel consumption is only five steamed buns.

Benz bicycle, the first bicycle in Ming Dynasty.

The Mercedes-Benz bicycle has a super strong load, and it can easily fly up to two hundred kilograms.

All kinds of advertising banners fluttered against the cold wind, which was also clearly visible.

Before everyone could figure out the situation, these waiters got on their bicycles one by one, and with a light step on them, they began to walk on the street very easily one by one.

Dozens of bicycles form a row, one after another, and with the flags flying behind, it immediately becomes the most beautiful scenery on the street.

The speed of the bicycle is not slow, especially the speed of walking on the concrete floor.

This brand-new new means of transportation that does not require horses or oxen, the key is that the speed is not bad, and it immediately attracted the attention of young and old in the entire capital.

Accompanied by the bicycle team as they wandered through the streets of the capital, they took out some advertising paper from the basket in front of them and threw them around.

Immediately, the old and young men in the capital built it one after another, and immediately understood this brand-new means of transportation.

If this scene is seen by the people who hand out leaflets in future generations, they will probably be half-dead with rage.

Now, if you just throw the leaflets on the ground, they will be snatched up by the people around you. No matter what, this is paper. At least you can even write with a brush for your children when you take it home.

Here at the Mercedes-Benz bicycle experience store, as more and more people saw the advertisement, a large number of people flocked to see this amazing bicycle under the trend of curiosity.

Wang Gensheng is from Shanxi, and he came to the capital to work with the villagers. He worked as a construction worker in a construction company, and his wife worked as a textile worker in a textile factory.

The husband and wife usually eat and live in their own factories, and in the business house, Wang Gensheng's construction site was quite close to his wife's factory in the past, so they can easily get together and meet each other after get off work and on weekends.

But as Wang Gensheng's construction site moved to another place, it was not easy for the husband and wife to communicate. For several miles, walking back and forth made the legs feel sore.

No, today happened to be the weekend, and while Wang Gensheng took his wife out for shopping, he also discussed whether to let his wife go to work in another place.

The husband and wife, husband and wife, naturally must be together to be a husband and wife, and it is not an option to always separate.

"There isn't any good factory near your construction site. I managed to become the group leader now, and my salary has been increased by one or two taels of silver. I'll leave immediately, okay?"

"However, we are far away, and it is really inconvenient to travel. I have to walk for an hour every time, and my legs are sore."

"One hour's journey is considered childish. When you married me, the journey was even farther. Didn't you come all the way?"

"We are away from home to make more money. If we get together less, we will get together less. It won't do anything, and it will be Chinese New Year soon. Even if we leave, we will have to wait until next year."

"Okay, okay~"

Wang Gensheng and his wife, Li Erxiu, were shopping and discussing things. At this time, they saw the Mercedes-Benz bicycle shop opened here, and saw the employees in the shop riding bicycles performing at the entrance of the shop. An introduction to this bike.

"Everyone, young and old, don't miss it when you pass by."

"Let's take a look at the Mercedes-Benz bicycles produced by our Mercedes-Benz bicycle factory."

"It doesn't need a horse or an ox dragged. It only needs two pedals on the wheels. The speed is very fast. We have tested it on the concrete floor. It can walk thirty miles in an hour, that is, it can travel in an hour. Go sixty miles."

"And it not only walks fast, but the key is that it can carry heavy loads. Let's see, there is no problem at all with an adult sitting on the back, and it can run and fly as usual. There is a basket in front, which can also be used To hold something, this lever can also be used as a child."

While holding the tin horn, the staff of the bicycle shop pointed to the staff who were riding the bicycle and started to introduce. With his introduction, the eyes of the people around him began to light up.

"Of course, our bicycle is a bit difficult to learn. It is probably difficult for a stupid person to learn it, but a smart person will learn it soon."

"Is there anything you want to try?"

"I, I~"

"I'll try~"

As soon as the words fell, many people immediately raised their hands. At this moment, Wang Gensheng also raised his hands with some excitement. If he can buy such a bicycle, he will come to his wife's factory to see it later. It is much more convenient for a daughter-in-law. The key is that this weekend, if you are free, you can take your daughter-in-law to walk around the capital and have a look.

"This big brother, come and try~"

The waiter with the tin horn looked around, pointed at Wang Gensheng and said.

When Wang Gensheng heard this, he stepped forward excitedly.

"Learning to ride a bicycle for the first time may be a bit difficult. You first turn your body sideways like this, put your right foot on the pedal, support the left foot, then hold the faucet, look forward, and step on it with your right foot. .”

After a simple teaching, Wang Gensheng also got on the bike, stepped on his right foot, and the bike stood up, but he was worried about losing his balance all of a sudden, and he was scared to death.

Fortunately, there was a guy on the side supporting the back, so he didn't fall down.

"It's okay, it's okay~"

"Look at the front with this eye, hold the faucet with your hand, and we will support it behind, so you don't have to worry about falling."

The clerk in the store taught him patiently, and also helped Wang Gensheng to try more.

According to the teaching, Wang Gensheng fell several times in a row, but soon, he mastered the sense of balance, and with the help of his assistant, he was able to walk a certain distance on a tortuous ride.

Then, he quickly mastered the key points of riding a bicycle, and he got started smoothly, and he was able to walk around on the bicycle without someone supporting him.

"Haha, this is really good, really good~"

Riding the bicycle, Wang Gensheng shouted excitedly, it is really a good thing, a bicycle that can walk on its own pedals is absolutely safe.

"Come on, come on, do you want to give it a try? Today, our Mercedes-Benz bicycle experience store opens, and everyone can try it casually."

Seeing Wang Gensheng riding a bike in a decent manner, the clerk in the store immediately said to other people, and soon, more than a dozen people came up to test the bike. Ma Liu, some people are clumsy and unable to learn.

Fortunately, there was someone to support him, so he didn't fall and hurt himself.

Wang Gensheng returned to the door of the store, and reluctantly returned the bicycle to the shop assistant.

"How much does this bike cost?"

Wang Gensheng looked at the bicycle and asked the clerk in the shop.

"This bicycle usually costs 24 taels of silver. Today we are opening for an event, and we only need 22 taels of silver."

"22 taels of silver?"

"This is too expensive!"

Hearing the quotation, Wang Gensheng couldn't help shouting out immediately.

"Of course it's not cheap, mainly because our bicycle is very good. You can see that the steel used is from Miyun Iron Works, and the tires are made of rubber, and the seat is made of cowhide. Everything is real. Real."

"Furthermore, it has many uses. For example, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Wouldn't it be more face-saving to buy a bicycle like this, bring your wife, buy some souvenirs, and ride back to your hometown?"

"During the Chinese New Year, it is also very good to have a bicycle to visit relatives and friends. It is much better than walking to take the wife and children to the old man's house."

The clerk in the store smiled, then looked at Wang Gensheng and his wife and said.

　Is there a feeling of 80s?
