"You are a public loser!"
In front of a shop in Dongshi, Constable Cao knocked on the door with several yamen servants.
The public loser Hong was stunned when he heard the speech, greeted him, nodded and said, "we are the children of the public loser. I don't know what instructions this superior has."
"According to the order of the county magistrate, there are great fire hazards in the smelting industry in the East and West cities. The county magistrate has written to the imperial court that all industries with great fire hazards will move to the southeast Industrial Park, and Gongshu's iron smelting business will also be among them. This is the imperial court's notice, and you can move out within three months!" Constable Cao said and handed the notice to Gongshu Hong.
"Move away!" Gongshu Hong was stunned.
The plan of Chang'an City Industrial Park has already spread in the eastern and western cities. Strictly speaking, moving to the industrial park is indeed a lot of benefits. Moreover, selling your shops in the eastern and western cities can not only obtain several times the land and plants, but also make a lot of money.
And I heard that the industrial park has built brick roads with convenient transportation, which is no worse than that in Chang'an city!
However, the problem is that the public losers' shops belong to the Taiyuan Wang family, which are only used by the public losers, not owned by the public losers themselves. In this way, if public losers want to move to the industrial park, they must pay their own money, which is not a small amount.
This is not over. As soon as Constable Cao left, the public loser rushed in and said loudly, "brother, it's bad. The guards at the gates of Chang'an City have banned the public loser's four-wheel carriage from entering Chang'an city."
"Ah, what's the matter?" Gongshu Hong was surprised and asked quickly.
"According to the city gate guard, this is the order of the county magistrate. If the public loser's four-wheel carriage damages the brick road too much, it is forbidden to carry out the process of the public loser's four-wheel carriage." the public loser gasped.
"What about the carriage of the Mohist family?" Gongshu Hong asked hurriedly.
The public transport wheel said, "brother, you forget that the Mohists announced that all the four-wheel carriages in the Mohist village would be replaced with new wheels for free as early as January."
"New wheel?" Gongshu Hong suddenly realized that Merton had long expected today's situation.
Gongshu Hong was in a mess. He didn't expect that Gongshu family was hit hard one after another. First, the iron smelting business was relocated, and then there was a problem with the four-wheel carriage. The two pillar businesses of Gongshu family were devastated at the same time.
Among the four wheeled carriages, the most core technologies are wheels and shock absorption technology. Public losers can't compete with Mojia village in these two points. In addition, after the emergence of brick road, the gap between the two countries is even greater. Brick road is a perfect combination of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village, strong, fast and heavy.
In contrast, the shortcomings of the public loser's four-wheel carriage with small load suddenly sank out, and the sales volume directly decreased greatly.
In particular, after Mojia village directly launched free wheel replacement, the reputation of the public loser's four-wheel carriage fell to the freezing point. This heavy blow from Chang'an County government directly drove the public loser to the edge of the cliff.
"Brother, why don't we change the wheels for free? It's a big deal to return the replaced wheels to the furnace for forging. It takes some effort at most." the public transport wheel said angrily.
Gongshu Hong said with a bitter smile, "it's not that I don't want to change the wheels for the sold carriage, but that I can't do anything. My Gongshu family can't make new wheels."
"Can't make it?" the public loser was suddenly dumbfounded. I couldn't believe it and said, "even big brother can't make it."
Gongshu Hong shook his head and revealed a trace of congealing: "the new wheel has a steel ring inside and a wooden ring outside. The most difficult thing is that the two tightly fix the wooden ring and iron ring together. The Mojia village adopts a new structure."
"New structure?" the public transport wheel was shocked.
Gongshu Hong took out an iron bar with long fingers. There was a hexagonal iron block at both ends of the iron bar and handed it to Gongshu wheel.
"Is this?" the public transport wheel couldn't help asking when looking at this strange thing.
"Mohists call it a screw. The top of one end can rotate, which is called a nut. After they are tightened hard, they can firmly fix the two objects together," Gong Shuhong explained.
"Screw, what a strange name." the public transport wheel curiously took out a screw and nut to align them together, which can be tightly sewn together, and can freely adjust the spacing according to the size of the object. As an expert craftsman, the public transport wheel immediately understood the great value of this object.
"It is said that this is the Mexican family. After seeing the snail in summer, he was suddenly inspired and invented the screw according to the shape of the snail." Gong Shuhong said helplessly.
The Gongshu wheel suddenly looked at the top of the screw, which was very close to the shape of the snail.
"Mozi is really lucky. Since brother already knows the principle of screws, why can't we make screws by ourselves!" the public loser frowned.
Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "although the principle of a small screw is simple, the wire drawing process is extremely complex. So far, only Mojia village can do it."
The screw principle is broken at all, but the screw drawing skill is indeed an extremely accurate and high-end technology in this era. Public losers can only stare at it and can't make screws. Naturally, they can't imitate new wheels.
The public transport wheel said angrily, "this is the Yang scheme of the Mohist school. Only the Mohist village in the whole Tang Dynasty can make new wheels, and the profits of the four-wheel carriage are not exclusive to the Mohist family."
The news that the imperial court was going to build a large-scale brick road could not be concealed from these sharp businessmen. Everyone knew that the four wheeled carriage would surely usher in a rise. Many people were staring at this fat meat. As a result, it was found that Mojia village had an absolute advantage again because of a small screw.
The public loser complained blindly, but he didn't remember that the four-wheel carriage business was led by Mojia village. His public loser just imitated the four-wheel carriage of Mojia village, which made his fortune.
"So what? Who makes me inferior? Hateful. If you give me enough time, it's not difficult to conquer the screws. Unfortunately, I'm afraid the public loser can't wait until that time." public loser Hong said helplessly and was immediately discouraged. At first, he entered Chang'an City in high spirits, but now he is struggling.
"Otherwise, I'll agree to the conditions of those two families." the public loser said, gritting his teeth. Naturally, what he said was the changsun family and the Taiyuan Wang family.
Hearing this, Gongshu Hong immediately struggled and said, "if you promise the conditions of their two families, you will not become their vassal, and Gongshu family is one of the hundreds of schools. If so, how can you face your ancestors?"
Most of the profits earned by all the businesses of Gongshu family have been taken away by the king's family and Gongsun's family in Taiyuan. Since the emergence of brick road, how can the changsun family and Wang's family not be aware of the huge potential of the four-wheel carriage, so they intend to swallow the four-wheel carriage business of Gongshu family and let Gongshu family become its vassal completely.
The public losers are also arrogant. How can they promise? The two sides talk about collapse. The public losers are suffering from internal and external troubles at the moment.
"Father, Mojia village launched the activity of exchanging the old for the new and replacing the new wheels for all carriages at a low price." Gongshu Hao Ran in and broke out an amazing news.
