Zhang Nuo's preparations for war continued. Li Shimin didn't want to be the emperor's spectator at the rear this time. He had already patted the table in the court several times.

He already knows the world map like the back of his hand, but now he understands that if he doesn't fight in the few battles around here, then he will have no chance in the battles in the future.

Datang would never allow his own emperor to go out for a year or so at a time, that is absolutely impossible, and the whole court would be in chaos.

This is not a problem that can be solved after the development of telegraph and communication. The role of Li Shimin, the emperor, is no longer just decision-making. With the development of Tang Dynasty, even many people know that Zhang Nuo has contributed to it , but more praise fell on Li Shimin.

It can be said that if someone wants to confuse the people to rebel at this time, he may be sent to the Yamen by the people after he has finished speaking.

These days, everyone knows that life is getting better and better, as long as you work hard, you will succeed. Do you want to rebel?

Li Shimin's prestige is getting higher and higher, which means that his role is getting bigger and bigger. Even if he doesn't need to do anything, everyone will feel more at ease when he is here.

This is also the reason why so many ministers opposed Li Shimin's personal conquest with one voice, not because they were worried that Li Shimin would die outside in an accident.

With Datang's current military strength, no matter which country they fight, fathers beat sons, and there is no possibility of people getting the chance to assassinate the coach of the middle battalion.

All you want is peace of mind.

Don't talk about the prince supervising the country, Li Chengqian did a good job, but if Li Shimin didn't take the Zen throne for a day, and Li Chengqian didn't become the emperor for a day, then there was always something missing.

As for Zhang Nuo, his prestige is enough, but he is against the rules. How can an emperor not let a prince come to supervise the country?

Unless Zhang Nuo intends to become emperor himself.Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for him to replace Li Shimin's role.

This is the evil result brought about by the feudal monarchy. The emperor has become a kind of belief in people's hearts. The more wise and powerful the emperor, the stronger this belief is.

Thousands of years of tradition have made people accustomed to a country always having an emperor. You can hide at home and scold the emperor, or you can flatter the emperor, but in everyone's perception, as long as the emperor of this empire is still there If you stay in an imperial city, then the country will be able to run smoothly.

And when the emperor started wandering around, everyone was anxious. After all, the ghost knows if you will lose yourself by wandering around. When the empire is in turmoil, it will be everyone who will suffer.

As I said before, Li Shimin's favorite thing is to lead soldiers to fight. In recent years, he has not given up on exercising. In fact, it is not for longevity, but for being able to lead soldiers to fight.

But now it's finally hard, the only chance has come up, but everyone won't let him go, how can he bear it?

Well, then everyone will be stubborn.

A lot of people came to Zhang Nuo to deliver messages, hoping that Zhang Nuo would persuade him, but Zhang Nuo made it clear that Li Shimin had become determined this time because of the weight, and he couldn't be persuaded anyway. Those who can persuade themselves to go, he will not do that useless work.

As a result, the Indochina Peninsula Campaign, which was almost ready, was dragged on.

Li Shimin's idea is very simple. If you don't let me go, I will procrastinate. This battle will not be able to be fought for the time being, but the other people have similar ideas. Let's procrastinate first, lest His Majesty sneak away accidentally. Yes, there is no place to cry when the time comes.

Well, obviously the two parties with opposing views turned out to be abnormally synchronized in this matter, and both chose the option of postponing the battle.

In the Ministry of War, an unknown idiot named Yuchi Dasha yelled a few words, and then he was kicked and scolded by Li Shimin first, and then a group of civil officials blocked the door and scolded him for an entire hour.

Except for this idiot, everyone else actually understands that this is actually just a small game between the imperial power and the court.

It's better for everyone not to meddle in the past. I haven't seen that His Royal Highness King Qin can easily settle any party, whether it's persuading His Majesty or those courtiers, he can easily do it, but His Highness King Qin looks like he's watching a show and doesn't intervene at all.

There is a car in front and a track in the back. The people in the Ministry of War don’t know anything else, but when standing in line, if you can stand as the emperor, you will naturally stand as the emperor. If you can’t stand as the emperor, you must stand as the king of Qin.

After all, no matter what Zhang Nuo said, he is currently the only marshal in the Tang Dynasty. This is the existence that all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty must salute when they see it. If you insist on counting, Zhang Nuo is the real No. That idiot Cheng Yaojin.

Things were dragging on like this, but Zhang Nuo was still busy with his own affairs. The battle in the Indochina Peninsula was definitely not something that could be settled in a day or two, so why not take this opportunity to sort out the country?

Chapter 851

Zhang Nuo's so-called sorting out the country is actually not about doing anything, but just taking the opportunity of this war to test the domestic materials collection, deployment, and transportation capabilities.

To put it bluntly, things like national strength and military strength are sometimes not as simple as they seem on the surface, and we don't talk about anything else, just talk about mobilization ability.

During the epidemic, our leaders mobilized the whole country to fight the epidemic with a single shout, but on the other side of the sea, the military strength and national strength are the highest in the world, but the result is nothing.

Let's not discuss those ideological issues, just talk about mobilization ability, which is not at the same level as ours.

On the other hand, Datang, naturally there is no problem with the command, as long as Li Shimin gives an order or the court has a formal order, then absolutely no one will jump out and sing the opposite.

However, what will be the strength of implementation and the results?

Is it to complete things beautifully, or to expose various problems by rambling?

These actually need to be verified in practice.

Don't underestimate this kind of thing. This kind of mobilization is especially important when there are various emergencies such as major disasters, epidemics, and even wars. Those with strong mobilization capabilities can mobilize disaster relief supplies one step faster. Rescue the wounded more efficiently, recover and rebuild faster.

These things can only be said to have laid a foundation based on various studies and meetings. If you really want a good effect, you must do it once in a serious manner, otherwise it will be nonsense.

At this time, of course, you can't order people to mobilize supplies indiscriminately, but you can write them down in a small notebook. When a war is really going to start, he has to try everything once. Look at the government work process that he has promoted for a long time on Datang's side. How effective the reform is? This kind of cross-regional and cross-departmental emergency work can best reflect work efficiency. Just try it out.

Zhang Nuo, who didn't realize that he planned to dig a big hole for those officials, turned around and wrote it down in his notebook and put it aside.

He has a lot of things at hand, and now that the first batch of trial-produced bicycles is about to leave the factory, he has to drag the couriers from Datang Daily to learn quickly.

Although the bicycle is simple, there is still a lot of knowledge between being able to ride it and mastering it proficiently, especially these people have to carry a lot of newspapers every day and have to come and go on the crowded streets. If this is not practiced well in advance, I am afraid that the courier team of Datang Daily will be paralyzed in a month.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo didn't delay any longer, and called Cao Xing to drive straight to the bicycle factory.

When he arrived at the factory, Zhang Nuo saw rows of brand-new bicycles neatly lined up in the open space at the entrance of the factory. Shines brightly in the sun.

Since these are pre-production products and are used for training, the bikes look like they're raw metal and not painted at all, but there's a bamboo wrap around the beams and then the front There is an iron plate with the word Phoenix written on the dragon head, which is considered a trademark.

When Zhang Nuo was asking for names, he couldn't bear to hear that they were all surnames or all kinds of literary names, so he directly decided on the name Fenghuang arbitrarily, even the word Fenghuang on the nameplate. After he finished writing, he asked someone to make a mold.

Zhang Nuo picked a bicycle at random and looked at it. The welding process seemed to be pretty good, and he stepped on it a few times and it seemed to be running pretty well.

It’s fun to say that Chang’an City has not yet been able to provide electricity to every household. The thermal power plant built by Zhang Nuo outside Lantian City can truly provide full coverage of electricity except for supplying all residents of Lantian City and the factory area. Yes, there are only bicycle factories and garment factories here.

In fact, the main reason why the development of electricity is not going up is because there are too few places that need electricity, and electricity is said to be so dangerous on weekdays. Most people feel that they only connect to electricity just for a light at home. A little too much to do.

In fact, the research institute has been advancing rapidly in this regard, and various new electrical appliances will gradually enter the lives of ordinary people in the next few years.

But at least judging from the current situation, it is used in production well. At least Zhang Nuo doesn't know how to assemble this pile of car frames without electric welding.

Speaking of which, these shareholders are also very powerful. In such a short time, have they really trained a group of qualified welders?

When Zhang Nuo's car came in, someone had already gone in to inform the shareholders who were still in the factory. Now Zhang Nuo was here for a while, and the shareholders all came over.

In fact, they also came to see the trial production today. Many people are planning to buy a few of them by themselves first, so that they can ride for their family and play, and it is also a souvenir, isn’t it?

Zhang Nuo was not polite to them either, he picked up one casually, rode on it to feel it for a while, and then realized that it was actually a leather seat, he was a little speechless.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that leather is not worth much these days. If you have to get some PU leather or plastic, the price seems to be more expensive than this leather.

Moreover, because high-quality springs have too high requirements for steel and craftsmanship, the price is not cheap at all, so here is a very stupid thing to directly wrap a piece of wood with leather, and fill it with a little rag as a buffer.

Feeling the hard touch under the buttocks, Zhang Nuo was also speechless for a while, but he couldn't say anything, because he was the one who put forward the requirement of "cheap price and durable".

So in order to achieve this goal, the technicians in the factory have to think of ways in these "innocuous" aspects.

Zhang Nuo curled his lips, kicked the pedal habitually, and the car rushed out immediately.

As an old cyclist who rode a bicycle to and from school every day when he was a child, Zhang Nuo was naturally dissatisfied with this bicycle that seemed to be cutting corners everywhere.

But from another perspective, from the perspective of the factory owner, this car is undoubtedly a success, and it is an excellent example of cost saving.

Where metal can be used, metal is definitely not used, and where money can be saved, try to save money as much as possible. If you look at it from this perspective, this car is actually not so unacceptable!

Chapter 852 Official Production Begins

Zhang Nuo barely gave up after two laps in the factory, mainly because he was used to being pampered all the time, and it was really unbearable to ride this bike suddenly.

Don't talk about martial arts training, no matter how much you practice martial arts, you can't resist the sadness of this ball. It can only be said that the triangular seat with wood and soil and leather is really hard for ordinary people.

But Zhang Nuo believes in the wisdom of the people. At least when he was studying, he saw countless companies that made a seat cushion for his bicycle, including sponge and cotton. He didn't care if the bottom spring was broken. No.

I imagine that when these bikes actually fall into the hands of those people and use them every day, they will try their best to get all kinds of small equipment for themselves.

In fact, Zhang Nuo did this when he was a child, from the simplest and cheapest stickers to all kinds of messy baskets, cushions, fenders, etc. Anyway, he had to make his own a little different from others.

Presumably those who get the bicycle will find a way to start all kinds of troubles as long as they use it for a while. After all, who doesn't know a little craftsmanship these days, it will definitely be very easy to make a basket or shelf by yourself. normal thing.

After putting down his bicycle, Zhang Nuo discussed the production situation with the shareholders in charge of daily management in the factory. Judging from the current situation, it can't be said to be particularly good, but at least it's not bad.

Zhang Nuo didn't say anything about it. After all, everything started from scratch. Now he only needs to make sure the process is correct. For things like proficiency, the workers can only rely on the workers to gradually improve during work.

Of course, it is not so easy for managers. Zhang Nuo made it clear directly that there is a time limit for this, and the production must be increased every month, and the pass rate cannot be relaxed.

After all, this product is mainly cost-effective. Compared with other industries, the profit is really not high. You must know that Zhang Nuo's profit from selling wine is several times.

Therefore, if this side does not pay close attention to consumables, the profit will have to drop further.

Zhang Nuo didn't want to work so hard to create a company that would not make any money in the end. He wanted to do a project to benefit the people, but only profit could guarantee the long-term operation of a company.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Nuo began to arrange the training of the first batch of delivery personnel of Datang Daily. This group of people is not only the first batch of customers and users of the bicycle factory, but also the bicycle factory The first batch of live ads.

When these people really rode these bicycles to work, they would have to walk around the streets with newspapers on their backs. If they behaved well, it would be a live advertisement, but if they behaved badly, it would be regarded as a public execution.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo originally planned to simply teach them for a day and then let them go back to practice slowly, but now that he thinks about it, no, it has to be pulled here to train intensively for a few days.

Not to mention that all of them will become masters, but at least they must be able to not lose the chain in their normal work and life.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo immediately started to make arrangements.

There is no shortage of bicycles here, and there is no shortage of people who can ride bicycles. After all, every car has to be inspected, and random checks are required from time to time.

Moreover, the more people who work here, the more they can appreciate the convenience of this bicycle. Therefore, many people have secretly started to learn how to ride a bicycle by taking advantage of their spare time during commuting and lunch time.

They also know that the first batch must be sent to Datang Daily, but when the second batch leaves the factory, they may have a chance to buy one for their family.

Not to mention anything else, but those whose homes are not next to the factory, with this bicycle, it will be much easier to go to work, and they can bring something back when they get off work.

There are a lot of smart people these days, so now the workers in the factory come to work earlier, just to learn how to drive in turns, and then they will learn for a while in the factory before leaving after get off work.

After all, there are only a few cars that can be used for practice now. If everyone doesn't take turns, it really isn't enough.

Someone reported this matter to Zhang Nuo, but Zhang Nuo felt that there was nothing to refuse this matter, because on the one hand, even if these people had internal employee discounts, they still had to spend money to buy it back, so they would It is equal to the customer, and learn about bicycles in advance.

The other thing is that this is also a kind of advertisement. After all, these people basically live in Lantian City. If you think about the torrent of bicycles coming out of the bicycle factory when you commute to get off work, the effect of the advertisement is needless to say.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo not only did not prevent these people from learning, but instead took the initiative to select a batch of bicycles from the trial production and give them to everyone to practice, and directly explained that each factory employee has two [-]% discount indicators for buying bicycles.

Well, as soon as the news was announced, everyone became more enthusiastic about learning how to drive. After all, Zhang Nuo always wanted to take the people-friendly route, but the cost of bicycles is placed there, and it is too cheap to think about it after adding a reasonable profit. It's impossible.

Half a month has passed in such a hurry. At this time, the warehouse of the bicycle factory has been filled with brand-new bicycles. During this time, the couriers of Datang Daily in Chang'an and Lantian have already They came in batches for training.

Zhang Nuo's training started from letting them learn to ride, and then advanced courses, including carrying heavy objects, emergency avoidance, and driving on complex terrain.

Zhang Nuo basically made out the second and third subjects of the later driving school exams, and he even asked someone to arrange a special and simple obstacle course.

However, these things have passed. Although the current bicycle factory has not yet started to sell, but because of the popularization of electricity, it has already started full production in three shifts.

No one would foolishly say what to do if they can't be sold. If nothing else, just look at the workers in front of you. I'm afraid that the thousands of workers in the factory alone can buy out the current inventory.

Not to mention that there is still a big order from the military. Zhang Nuo is already discussing with shareholders about expanding production. Time has to be rushed.

After arranging everything, Zhang Nuo also heaved a sigh of relief. Tomorrow is the time for the first batch of bicycles to be put into use. At that time, the bicycle shops in Lantian City and Chang'an City will also open simultaneously. It is time for him to make his long-prepared plan available.

Chapter 853 First Appearance

Wu Dazhuang is an old courier of Datang Daily. He has been a courier since the day the daily was established, and Zhang Nuo personally approved him to join.

He has always been very proud of this, because the people behind him may have never seen His Highness King Qin. For this Highness, as an old soldier, Wu Dazhuang understands the power and greatness of King Qin better than ordinary people.

Not to mention His Royal Highness King Qin's military exploits in the Southern and Northern Wars and the expansion of territory, but the things he has done for the military alone are worth remembering by all the active and retired soldiers forever.

It can be said that Zhang Nuo has spent a lot of effort on the placement of disabled soldiers, martyrs, and family members, and Wu Dazhuang himself is one of the beneficiaries.

At the very beginning, the couriers were selected disabled old soldiers, but gradually they found that they might as well start a small business instead of doing this. There are bonuses and things like that, but it's hard to get rich.

At the same time, speaking of these guys wanting face, Zhang Nuo took too much care of them, and they were not happy about it, so after Zhang Nuo knew what they thought, he turned around and arranged another policy, that is, these disabled people who have been working for a long time Soldiers can go to the bank to apply for an interest-free loan, and then start a small business by themselves.

Many people choose this one. After all, as the sales volume of daily newspapers is getting bigger and bigger, their physical disabilities really make them a little busy doing the work in front of them. Rather than dragging others down here, they might as well go for it themselves. .

But Wu Dazhuang didn't leave. His injury was actually nothing in the army, except that his right foot was a little lame. This little thing didn't affect him at all.

Moreover, there are only two children in his family, and now they have joined the army. Not only does he not need him to earn money to support the family, but the two children have started sending money to the family instead.

Now that they are the old couple living their lives, he is naturally too lazy to do business anymore. He always feels that he is not smart enough, and he is not very courageous.

It's better to just do this job comfortably, and when the two children in the family are married, quit the job and take the grandson there. Isn't this better than being busy with business every day?

It is precisely because of Wu Dazhuang's mentality that every time he delivers, he likes to deliver it slowly, and then chat with people casually.

He never thought that the original unintentional move would lead to a sharp increase in the number of subscriptions in the square market he was in charge of, and the bonuses would increase a lot.

The salary system formulated by the newspaper office is very complete. If you attract subscribers, you will definitely have a one-time reward this month. At the same time, because your delivery volume has increased, your monthly bonus will also have a Small boost.

This is just to make everyone more enthusiastic to attract business.

Wu Dazhuang couldn't be more satisfied with this salary system, but it's not like he hasn't complained behind his back. What he complains the most is that there are too many newspapers nowadays.
