Zheng Quchi curiously looked over and saw that it was a manual fixed-frame wheelchair.
She was stunned for a moment and thought to herself, what a coincidence?
The name is written on it, and the purpose is marked in a line of small characters below. It is a mobility tool for people with incomplete lower limbs and difficulty walking.
Of course, Zheng Quchi couldn't have rushed out this picture album overnight. It was all something she had thought about while taking a break from her busy schedule.
Sometimes she needs something but can't make it right away, so she just paints it on it, thinking that when she has money and a lot of time, she will buy materials and tools to make it.
She designed this wheelchair while thinking about Brother Sang's legs, because she found that there was no mobility tool specifically designed for disabled people such as wheelchairs on the market.
Even after every war, there are so many injured people with limited mobility, but they are not equipped with similar mobility tools.
At least she searched around and didn't see anything. As for the demand in some high-rise mansions, they may have hired craftsmen to make similar chairs, but those who can design and have craftsmanship will definitely want something that ordinary people can't bear. The sky-high price.
She also asked other people, and the craftsmen said that someone had designed a wheelchair for the rich gentry and nobles. It was a four-wheeled wheelchair. There was a parasol on the chair, one person could sit on it, and his feet were against the front pedal. It could be used for short distances. People are behind to push forward.
It is smaller than a horse-drawn carriage, has no cover, is easy to move, and is suitable for outings and outings.
But this is for normal people.
The wheelchair designed by Zheng Quchi is modeled after a modern double-upper-limb drive wheelchair. It does not need to be pushed from behind and can be manually operated by the wheelchair user. It also has a hand lever brake. In terms of materials, she designed a combination of metal and wood. The body can be folded and retracted easily.
Why add metal materials? Because she wanted the fixed-frame wheelchair to be both strong and lightweight.
Through technical teaching and the technical support of the senior irons in the blacksmith shop, the ideal steel was finally forged, and there was also a batch of unexpected alloy materials. Although there were not many of them, they could not do anything big, but they could be used for some small products. Instrument creation.
She planned to use some of it on a wheelchair to make the best wheelchair for her eldest brother.
After the workshop has gained scale, she plans to invest in the foundry company when the funds come back, vigorously develop metal forging, build blast furnaces, and smelt high manganese steel, high carbon steel, and alloy steel. High-strength steel has good elasticity and suitable hardness, and is used to make armor for soldiers, while extremely hard high-carbon steel is suitable for use as cold weapons... The idea is wonderful, but the money that needs to be invested in it is a bottomless pit. , she feels that private investment is probably far from enough. If it can get support from the state...
Just thinking about it, she laughed at herself that she might not be just thinking.
As for King Ye's greedy prime minister who wants to drain their Chang Tongpo camp dry, he probably won't talk about cooperation and win-win with a woman like her. If she is useless, she will be eliminated. If she is of value, she will be eliminated. I'm afraid that I will never have freedom in life from now on.
Suddenly her thoughts were split, but Gan Xin's dissatisfied and powerful cold aura pulled her wandering soul back.
She quickly replied: "Of course you can, but this one is for people with handicap. Why would the guest want to do this?"
She just asked casually. She thought that with Gan Xin's self-centered and domineering temperament, he would definitely not confide in her, a stranger, and would only coldly say "What does it have to do with you", but she was soon beaten. Face.
"I have a friend who injured his leg and foot. I saw that your car is just the right size to move him around. I need this."
Not only did he say it, he said a lot in one breath.
Zheng Quchi: "..."
She couldn't figure out his personality for a while.
"This wheelchair is quite special. It is specially designed for people with inconvenient legs and feet, so it needs to be specially customized. For example, the height of the person mentioned by the customer. If it is taller, it will not fit me if it is made smaller. Well, there’s also the weight. This wheelchair has a weight limit. It can still move if it exceeds it, but it will affect the speed of movement and the life of the car..."
"Why are you so long-winded? Where did you come from?
So many questions! "Gan Xin interrupted her impatiently.
His roar immediately stunned Zheng Quchi.
It wasn't that she was frightened by him, but that he was very close, and the sudden roar of a lion was so deafening that her little head was buzzing.
Gan Xin saw that she was stunned and her big eyes widened. He thought that his voice had scared her, and his brows were furrowed.
Just now, she praised her for being brave and not afraid of him, but now she is timid again, which is very troublesome.
When he was in a troubled mood, his face straightened, and he became even more vicious: "Hey, are you going to do it? If you dare to lie to me, I will raze your stall to the ground."
Zheng Quchi picked his ears with his fingers and said without thinking: "Of course I can, but what I just said is not to be verbose, but to discuss the wheelchair with you, but there are many people here, noisy, It’s not suitable to talk in detail, otherwise we can make an appointment tomorrow or tomorrow near Fuhao Jingwan and we can settle it.”
"Tomorrow?" Gan Xin suddenly looked unhappy.
Zheng Quchi grabbed the corner of his clothes where the scar was being repaired and said, "It's getting late now. I have to rush back to the village before dark. My home is quite far away from the county. They have difficulty moving and they are still waiting for me to go back." Get some food, if you go back late..."
The image she presented at this time was too specific.
Gan Xin instantly imagined a poor girl who supported her family by herself. After a day of work outside, she had to go back to wash and cook for her sick parents and young brothers and sisters, and feed the dozen or so children at home who were waiting for food. mouth people.
"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow."
Before Zheng Quchi racked his brains to find a reason, he had already agreed.
Zheng Quchi's brain instantly short-circuited... He agreed now?
Zheng Quchi thought he would question and cross-examine him in various ways, but he didn't expect that he deserved to be so straightforward.
She couldn't help but think that it turns out that vicious-looking people may not always be mean-spirited, but they might also be mean-minded. He didn't even ask her a few questions about her dubious excuse...
"You are such a good person." Zheng Quchi said with gratitude in his eyes.
Gan Xin, who was suddenly given the good guy card: "..."
After Zheng Quchi successfully achieved his goal, he had a brisk smile on his face and happily collected his things and was about to leave, when Gan Xin called her from behind: "Wait a minute."
Zheng Quchi's back instantly stiffened.
She was wrong, she shouldn't accuse others of being stupid and easy to cheat.
"Is there anything else?" She turned her head, looking innocent.
He suddenly became angry and said angrily: "You haven't said how much you want to pay, nor have you asked me for a deposit. What if I randomly send you some money then, will you accept it?"
call.
It turned out that this was why he called her to stop.
"No, I believe in your sincerity. A person who can do his best for his friends must be kind-hearted and honest. As for how much it will cost, let's discuss it together tomorrow." She smiled at him like a sunflower.
Gan Xin stared at her, his eyes unblinking.
Let’s be honest, this little girl looks quite stupid, but she’s actually not what she looks like.
She must have been deceived from time to time. No wonder she couldn't even afford a decent new dress and was still wearing an old, patched dress that she found somewhere.
Zheng Quchi: "..."
"Well."
He, Gan Xin, has never been short of money, and he would not be so despicable as to defraud a young girl with a heavy burden on her family. If she was really capable, he would have paid her more than enough wages.
——
After confirming that Gan Xin had left, Zheng Quchi took his baggage and ran to a deserted corner. Lan Yue, Wu Liang, Kongli, and Sixi emerged from the darkness.
They asked, "How is Madam?"
The four of them didn't dare to get too close just now because they were worried that Gan Xin would notice something strange, so they kept a distance to monitor him. Therefore, they didn't know what his wife talked about with him.
Zheng Quchi
He patted his chest in shock: "No problem, he will come again tomorrow. We will set up an ambush in advance and capture him after arranging everything."
Wu Liang looked at the other three people and hesitated: "Madam, with just the few of us, I'm afraid..."
"Who said there are only a few of us? Call some more people and we can join together!"
Since it's an ambush, it would be safer to have more people working together in the dark. Anyway, it's not a head-on fight with him. The sinister side has to be fully prepared, and then he will be caught off guard!
"Madam, mobilizing the army requires the general's talisman." Lan Yue reminded helplessly.
They don't have military symbols in their hands, so they can't talk about "calling more people" at all.
Seeing that his wife did not understand the internal situation of the army, Lan Yue simply explained in more detail: "Let's put it this way, Guard Wei can mobilize some people privately, but it is limited to the small group of people in his hands, and the same goes for Adjutant Wang. Now the two None of the officers are in the camp, so if Madam wants to mobilize a large number of Xuanjia troops to go out to fight... she can't mobilize them."
Without the weapon talisman, it cannot be adjusted at all.
They don't have it. Zheng Quchi...she doesn't have the command talisman in her hand either?
Zheng Quchi reacted for a while and blinked: "Then who has the command talisman?".
The four of them said in unison: "General."
Zheng Quchi: "..."
Everyone sank into the river.
"Do you think it is possible that he did not take the military talisman with him when he went out, but left it at home?" Zheng Quchi asked.
Si Xi thinks it is possible: "The general is not going to march to fight. In addition, he can dispatch the Four Elephant Army at will without using military symbols. It is also possible that he will not carry the military symbols with him to prevent loss."
"Then if he didn't bring it with him, where would the military talisman be most likely to be placed?" She looked at them.
The four of them also looked at Zheng Quchi.
"Isn't this something you should ask yourself, madam?"
"How did I know about Yu Wensheng's military talisman..."
Suddenly, in the middle of her words, she had an idea: "The main army's tent!"
After Zheng Quchi returned to Changxunpo camp, he searched high and low, but to no avail.
Frustrated, she sat down on the edge of the bed and thought.
What if he really took the military talisman with him?
She glanced at the jade pillow belonging to Yu Wensheng beside the bed. He used to sleep on it. She subconsciously raised it and looked down. No.
What kind of person would put such an important thing under the pillow?
If you want to put it, put it...
Yes, if she had something valuable, she would definitely not put it in the "office". She would definitely think it would be safer to hide it at home.
In Fu County, Yu Wensheng’s family only has...
As soon as Zheng Quchi had an idea and didn't want to waste time, he ran back to Sang's house without stopping.
When Brother Sang saw her running back in a hurry, he thought something had happened and asked hurriedly: "Chizi, why are you back at this time? Did something happen?"
"It's okay, brother, I'm just back to find something important."
She explained to Brother Sang and went straight to her room.
Brother Sang chased after her with a stick: "What are you looking for? Do you want me to help you?"
"No, no, no, brother, you go and rest, I can do it myself."
"Okay then, have you had dinner? I'll get you some food and make some wheat cakes."
"No, thank you, brother."
While Brother Sang was busy cooking in the kitchen, Zheng Quchi was rummaging through the cabinets in the room, but he couldn't find anything similar.
In the end, only a few boxes containing paper sketches for her usual drawings and designs were left unexplored. Although she thought it was impossible for him to put things there, she still wanted to look through them.
But while rummaging around, her elbow accidentally knocked the statue on the table over to the ground.
She was startled and quickly put down what she was holding
Xi, squatted down and picked up Yu Wensheng's sculpture, and then carefully checked to see if there was any damage.
"Fortunately, the wood is strong and not damaged..."
She was touching the ridge texture of the sculpture when she suddenly felt something was wrong at the bottom of the sculpture. She turned it over strangely, only to see a token that had been violently embedded at the bottom.
Why violence?
Because one look at the skew angle of the insertion and the uneven roughness of the edges, one can tell that it was driven in and stuck by a strong force.
Zheng Quchi took a deep breath.
She was also very strong, and she was able to pull out the four-inch-long lacquered gold piece with just one grip.
This iron plate is engraved with the word "bing", surrounded by the embossed word "bing" is the Yuwen family's dark-colored houndstooth pattern, which is heavy.
"He really left it at home."
What kind of experience would it be like to have her dig up a treasure when she originally had the attitude of giving it a try?
Just don’t be too happy.
Zheng Quchi held the military talisman in her hand, thinking that with such a token, she could mobilize the army for her use. She was giving orders behind the scenes, commanding the generals, and majestic. With thousands of troops in her hand, she commanded Fang Qiu and directed the country. It feels like a cloud~
But she didn't let her think in the clouds for too long. Lan Yue told her: "Madam, this is the emergency mobilization talisman of the Xuanjia Army. It cannot be used as a tiger talisman. Therefore, it can only mobilize 500 to 1,000 troops at a time, and cannot give orders. The whole army."
Zheng Quchi was suddenly pulled into the mortal world: "...it was a wrong payment after all."
——
next day
Zheng Quchi had been waiting there early in the morning. She was a little nervous, because if a fight broke out, the other party might hate her for cheating and sacrifice her to the sky regardless of any obstruction.
However, she had already said hello to the four members of her team that they would only save her regardless of anything else.
But after waiting all morning, no one came!
It seems that the other party has broken the promise...
Zheng Quchi couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or relieved.
But just as he was about to withdraw, he saw someone coming. Not only that, he was also dragging a bloody cart. The blood was dripping along the way, and Zheng Quchi froze in shock.
He...where did he just come back from? !
