Chapter 390
When Fusu and his party arrived at the selected ski resort on the outskirts of Xianyang City, Wang Ben and other civil and military officials also followed, which made Fusu laugh.
Sure enough, there were still too few cultural and entertainment activities in Great Qin, even among the court officials.
Fortunately, the sleigh is very easy to make, and skilled craftsmen can quickly assemble a large number of them.
"These sleds assembled from long wooden planks can actually walk on the snow, and ~ what is the principle?"
Ying Zheng looked curiously at the humble sleigh road in front of him.
"The main reason why ordinary vehicles can't walk on snow is that the snow is too soft and easy to get into. "
"Even if the ground is frozen, the vehicle or the horse's hooves are driving over, it is easy to slip due to the lack of friction, and it is difficult to get back up. "
"Therefore, if you want to slide on the snow, there are two main tricks, one is to increase the force area and reduce the pressure per unit area, and the second is to put on a rough skin to increase the force area. "
"In order to cope with the possibility of unexpected conditions in winter, Erchen has asked people to develop a steam snow plow, the main principle is to replace the tires with larger and more grippy tracks, which can be seen as another version of the sled. "
"With the steam snow plow, several units are arranged in some important areas, with snow melting salt and other means, as long as the heavy snow is not too exaggerated, a certain traffic capacity can be guaranteed. "
Fusu introduced with a smile.
"That's great!"
Ying Zheng nodded in surprise.
Due to the climate, it basically begins to snow north of the Qinling Mountains in winter, which can easily obstruct road traffic.
This will not only seriously affect trade and logistics, but also mean a partial loss of control over the local area for the imperial court.
Once an accident occurs, it is difficult to respond in time, which is definitely not what Ying Zheng wants to see.
The appearance of this steam snow plough is definitely excellent news for Daqin.
"If this is the case, I can also organize a number of sled troops stationed in various parts of Daqin, which are responsible for snow patrols and road openings to ensure road traffic. "
Wang Jian said with a smile.
He has communicated with Fusu many times for advice, but he has always longed for the all-weather combat capability of the Great Qin army.
Now that there is an opportunity to exercise in the snow, you can't miss it.
"The Ministry of Household Affairs will arrange a special batch of funds to ensure the production of this sled and steam snow plow. "
Nesten is also happy and authentic.
Heavy snow covers the mountains, it is difficult to exchange materials in various places, and prices in many regions will skyrocket.
Not to mention the political implications beyond the economy.
As a secretary of the household department and a veteran minister for many years, Nei Shi Teng is still very clear about these.
"It seems that I will learn to ski with His Majesty and His Royal Highness today, not only to strengthen my body, but also to set an example for the people!"
Feng Quji, who has retired, also said with a smile.
After being retired, Feng Quji, who had lost a lot of pressure and troubles, saw a lot more, his spirit was much better than in the past, and the relationship with Yingzheng and the officials was also repaired a lot.
In the warm steam car compartment, Yushu and others, who were holding Xiao Xin'er and Xiao Wan'er's two little padded jackets, were also smiling.
For their husbands, they have always admired them very much.
"The first sleigh has been assembled, do you want to give it a try?"
Fusu invited with a smile.
Due to the large number of people, Fusu temporarily asked the craftsmen to make a large sleigh, which was pulled by four horses, which was enough to accommodate more than ten people.
As for Yushu and other ladies and the two little ones, there are specially customized airtight carriages for them, which not only use rubber and wool blankets to protect them from the cold wind, but also set up several small stoves, which are enough to ensure that they can be warm in the snow.
"Then the father is waiting for Fusu to play. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Ying Zheng followed Fusu to jump into the front row of the sled, and he has always been curious about new things.
As for Wang Jian and the others, they didn't need to say hello, they had already sat in the back very consciously one by one.
"The snow scenery is too monotonous, and it is easy to be blind, so my father brought this first. "
Fusu smiled and took out a pair of sunglasses, handed them to Ying Zheng, thought about it, and gave one to Wang Jian as well.
"Your Highness, what about the old ministers and the others?"
Nesten said cheekily.

"I'm sorry, but not much beforehand. "
"If you want, you can arrange for your own people to go to the New Town store to buy it. "
Fusu spread his hands.
gave Wang Jian a copy, for the sake of Wang Yuqiu, who was about to pass the door, and other people didn't have this treatment.
Nei Shi Teng and the others suddenly cried and laughed, and became even more envious and jealous of Wang Qian.
While everyone was laughing and laughing, the ugly man had successfully controlled the horses, and the slightly cumbersome sleigh gradually accelerated under the surprised gaze of the others.
Half a pillar of incense was not enough, and the sleigh had already completed the acceleration, and the people only felt the cold wind howling by, and the surrounding scenery was rapidly retreating backwards.
"That's a lot faster than a carriage, isn't it?"
"In an hour, I'm afraid I can't run a hundred and eighty miles, right?"
Wang Jian looked at the long snowflakes brought up by the sleigh in a daze, and took a deep breath.
"The friction is small, the advantage is that it saves effort, it is completely sliding, not only is it faster than a carriage, but the horse continues to run for a longer time. "
"The only downside is that the sled needs to be trained to handle it, otherwise it would be difficult to maneuver it freely. "
Fusu smiled slightly.
"The difficulty is nothing, I have tens of millions of people in Daqin, even if it is one in a hundred, I can train many qualified people. "
"And it's not just available in winter, outside of winter, these well-trained sledders can also help my Great Qin continue to go north, conquer those perennial frozen lands, and expand the territory. "
Wang Ben's eyes showed a hint of essence.
Fusu smiled faintly.
The area in Wang Ben's mouth is the Siberia of later generations, and it is still a wild area, but there are only a few nomadic tribes scattered with footprints.
However, Fusu, as a traverser, naturally understands the richness of the land under this frozen soil.
Although it is difficult to develop at present, it is definitely not wrong to occupy the territory and incorporate it into Daqin first.
What makes Fusu even happier is that Wang Ben and others, under their own guidance, have a stronger strategic vision than in the past, as well as an incomparably positive pioneering heart.
As long as it is within the scope of Great Qin's vision, it should belong to Great Qin's vast territory! .
