Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1730, Daming Coach Company

"Hmm~"

"The load of passenger cars and trucks is much heavier than that of cars. If there is no strong power, it will be very difficult when going uphill. Similarly, when going downhill, if the braking system does not work, it is easy to cause serious accidents."

"What kind of braking system is this?"

Liu Jin nodded in satisfaction, and asked about the brake system again.

The brake system of passenger cars and trucks is undoubtedly the most important thing. If the brakes are not good, it is easy to cause major accidents, and if one is not good, many people will die.

"Liu Gong, the braking system, we have also gone through a long period of thinking and research. The braking method on the bicycle is obviously not suitable for use on the car."

"So we researched the hydraulic brake system, using the principle that the liquid cannot be compressed, it can transfer energy 100%, by stepping on the brake pedal, the brake oil transfers the pressure, and then drives the brake pump to work and brake."

"The working principle of the brake pump is to use a large amount of frictional heat energy to dissipate the kinetic energy through friction and heat energy."

When Lu Qing heard it, he quickly explained it to Liu Jin in detail.

As soon as Liu Jin heard it, he immediately felt that he didn't understand. After carefully combining some of the knowledge he had learned in later generations, he discovered that Daming's technology and technological development had indeed reached a certain level.

It is kinetic energy, thermal energy, friction, etc. Obviously, these basic things have been clarified and researched clearly, so they can continue to make rapid progress.

If you don't even understand these basic things, don't expect this technology and technology to advance by leaps and bounds. This makes it necessary to mention the importance of Liu Jin's efforts to popularize basic education.

The new school established with reference to the education methods of later generations is absolutely successful in basic education. Although there are no too advanced things and theories, once the foundation is established, the subsequent development will be very rapid.

This may be the reason why Daming was able to build all the cars in just a dozen years. In the final analysis, it is the credit of basic education.

If there is no basic education, it is impossible for Ming Dynasty to continuously emerge various emerging technologies and scientific and technological talents, and it is impossible for technological development to be so rapid.

"Good, good~"

Liu Jin nodded again and again. The braking principle and technology of later generations of cars is also the same. Of course, large trucks and large trucks generally have air brakes, and the technical content is higher. It is estimated that they will not be able to research it in a while.

"This bus is still quite good!"

"Build dozens of cars first, and then use them for travel between Beijing and Tianjin, so that more people can try the taste of taking a car."

A good deal quickly came to Liu Jin's mind.

Long-distance bus transportation has a very glorious history in later generations.

At the beginning of reform and opening up, long-distance buses were the main way for people to travel before cars were popularized. At that time, it was not easy to travel far.

The long-distance bus station is also very awesome. Things like compulsory consumption are repeatedly banned, and everyone is arrogant. The income of a long-distance driver is also quite high. The salary for driving is a fraction, and most of it is kickbacks.

After the 21st century, cars began to enter thousands of households, more and more highways were built, and high-speed rail gradually became popular, so long-distance buses gradually declined.

Based on Daming's current situation, setting up a long-distance bus company must have great potential. At least, there must be no problem in making money.

It is absolutely difficult for cars to enter the homes of ordinary people in a short period of time, and it is impossible for trains to be repaired everywhere. Especially when the railway construction in Daming is basically funded by private funds, it will pay more attention to economic benefits. There must be no one paying to repair the lines that are not beneficial.

The car has naturally become the most important means of travel.

Of course, horses and carriages are the most common way people travel in Ming Dynasty now, but horses and carriages also have their limitations.

"Yes, Mr. Liu~"

When Lu Qing heard this, he quickly replied.

"Looking back, you tell Duanhai that the production of this kind of passenger car should also be paid attention to. I believe that the sales of passenger cars may not be worse than that of cars, because passenger cars can be invested and used to make money."

Liu Jin thought for a while and continued to order: "You can set up a separate factory to manufacture passenger cars, and how is the research on trucks?"

"Liu Gong, we are in the process of researching the truck. Because the truck is loaded, the biggest problem is the power. We are currently researching a more powerful internal combustion engine to support the truck."

Lu Qing also quickly replied.

"Well, please be busy and study slowly. Building a car is a very profound knowledge. There are many, many areas that need to be studied. There is still a long way to go before building a good car."

Liu Jin nodded in satisfaction, and then went to see Zhang Mao.

Here at the Mercedes-Benz car production plant, Zhang Mao looked at the Mercedes-Benz car production line in front of him with straight eyes. In his eyes, where is the production line in front of him? This is a big gold mine.

Walking from one end of the workshop to the other, a car is assembled from parts one by one, a pile of iron bumps and the like, assembled together to become a Mercedes-Benz car that can sell for more than 6000 taels of silver.

Is there anything better to make money in the world than this?
What is this if not a gold mine.

In Zhang Mao's opinion, this car is not difficult. It is unbelievable that an engine, four wheels, some iron frames and so on can be sold for more than 6000 taels of silver.

"It's too dark, it's too dark~"

While watching, Zhang Mao just shook his head, lamenting that Liu Jin is really black-hearted.

Combining such things together, it sold for more than 6000 taels of silver, which is almost the core of grandma's house.

At the same time, it also strengthened Zhang Mao's determination to build cars.

Since Liu Jin can make a lot of money with this, why can't he himself?
It's not a difficult thing, is the internal combustion engine difficult?
Or is it difficult to make wheels, or is it difficult to combine them?

In Zhang Mao's view, it is much easier to build a car, and this business can be profitable. This big business must not be missed.

"Mr. Zhang~"

Liu Jin came over and couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhang Mao's bright eyes.

Zhang Mao has always been like this, and he can't move his eyes when he sees the benefits.

However, if you think that building a car is easy, then you are wrong. Building a car is a real technical job, and you will know it later.

"Stinky boy, can you give me some technicians?"

Seeing Liu Jin, Zhang Mao rolled his eyes and said with a smile.

"This can't, it can't~"

"There is no need to discuss it. This is a cash cow that I have worked hard to cultivate. I can make money for me. I can't say anything."

When Liu Jin heard this, he shook his head immediately.

What a beautiful idea, the talents I have worked so hard to cultivate, you will leave when you open your mouth, you will make more money, or do you know talents better.

"What's yours, mine, do we still share each other?"

"It's a big deal, I'll just tell you a few concubines."

Of course Zhang Mao would not just give up like this, he said hastily.

"If I want to take a concubine, I can take it at any time. I don't need you to help me."

"No, no, no, no matter what you say."

Liu Jin shook his head again and again, this matter was not discussed.

"Brat, brat, let me tell you a few more wives. I'm sure you'll like it."

"Mr. Zhang, there is no need to discuss this matter."

Back at his mansion, Liu Jin called over a few stewards who specialized in helping him take care of the property under his command.

"The Mercedes-Benz Automobile Factory has developed something called a passenger car. This passenger car is specially used to carry people, and it can carry dozens of people at a time."

"I'm going to set up a Daming long-distance bus company to use this kind of bus to carry out long-distance passenger transportation between cities, so as to facilitate the travel between different places."

"The first line to be established is the line between Tianjin and the capital. Find a bustling place with a lot of traffic in the capital and Tianjin to build a passenger station first. The passenger station is specially used to sell tickets for passengers who take passenger cars. Use it on and off the bus."

Liu Jin began to explain the operation method of the later generation long-distance bus station, and ordered his people to build the Daming long-distance bus station.

The passenger cars have come out, so naturally they can’t be placed anywhere to look at them, of course they have to be used, making money is not the main purpose, the most important thing is to let more people know about cars and feel the convenience and convenience of getting off the cars.
