Chapter 349 May Not Sell Well

With only two wheels and no support, he was able to stay upright and even glide away.

This was far beyond anything anyone present had imagined. Everyone stared at the scene in disbelief.

The fact that Zhu Yunwen was riding a bicycle and speeding up, even making turns in the main hall, made it all the more unbelievable.

After all, this is something that people would never even think about in their daily lives. It's practically the same as seeing someone fly, which is unbelievable.

But just like the tricycle before, it was possible to pedal and run without putting your feet on the ground. It was all happening right before my eyes, making it impossible not to believe.

This is really weird.

The king of Baoxiang Kingdom looked at this scene with a shocked expression, then shook his head repeatedly and said:

"This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could this happen? Is this...is this some kind of magic trick?"

He truly could hardly believe what he was seeing. After riding around once, Zhu Yunwen applied the brakes and came to a steady stop, then addressed the crowd:

"How about it? My two-wheeled carts from the Ming Dynasty haven't disappointed you, have they?"

Now it's no longer a question of whether or not we are disappointed, but rather a question of whether or not we can believe, whether or not we should believe, and whether or not we dare to believe.

After all, the current situation is indeed incomprehensible.

So, even though everyone had witnessed what had happened, they still looked at each other with expressions of disbelief.

Every princess and prince spoke:

"That's impossible. How can it have two wheels and run like that? And it doesn't fall over at all? That's definitely not normal."

Zhu Yunwen remained unperturbed by the surrounding doubts, while Zhao Qingzhu seemed rather proud.

She tilted her little head back, looking smugly at the princes and princesses who couldn't believe their eyes, as if they were some country bumpkins who had never seen anything like it. She was incredibly superior.

This made Zhao Qingzhu extremely proud. She thought to herself, "This is nothing. It's just a mere means of transportation. Under the leadership of His Highness the Crown Prince, my Great Ming Dynasty has created countless novel gadgets."

If they saw this, wouldn't they all be so shocked that they would bow down and submit to the Ming Dynasty?

However, to be fair, Zhu Yunwen was indeed no different from a god in the eyes of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

After all, Zhu Yunwen did bring the people of the Ming Dynasty many surprises and things they could never have imagined.

At that moment, the princes and princesses present found it hard to believe that a bicycle with only two wheels could run without any other points of support.

Even the prince of Wuji Kingdom stepped forward and spoke in a very cultured manner:

"That's simply impossible. Running on two wheels violates the law that triangles are stable, as far as I know."

Zhu Yunwen was shocked at the time, thinking to himself, "This guy actually knows that triangles are stable?"

They do indeed have a little bit of culture.

Unfortunately, he didn't seem to have much education, so Zhu Yunwen finally spoke up and explained to those present:

"Actually, there's nothing special about it. It's just that inertia allows two wheels to run."

Let alone two wheels, even one wheel can run under certain inertia and power.

Of course, it's also important to maintain balance, so the front wheel handlebars of a bicycle are a crucial factor in preventing falls during riding.

Make slight adjustments to the handlebars to help maintain the vehicle's balance while it retains momentum.

That way, you won't fall at all, and you'll be very stable. Like this!

As Zhu Yunwen spoke, he picked up a wheel and rolled it hard on the ground. The wheel continued to roll without falling over until the force dissipated.

Unless it ran out of strength, it began to slow down and slowly collapsed to the ground.

Even after his explanation, everyone still only vaguely understood.

But I also began to believe that it was indeed possible.

And his admiration for Zhu Yunwen was so profound that he was completely in awe of him.

At this moment, the little fangirl princess from the Women's Kingdom immediately stepped forward and said:

"The Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty is simply a genius! He actually created such a powerful thing for the Ming Dynasty. It is truly admirable."

Such intelligence and talent clearly surpasses that of ordinary people and is beyond the reach of normal people.

I think if this product were exported to various countries, it would sell very well, and my Daughter Kingdom would definitely buy it in large quantities.

Zhu Yuntang smiled slightly and said:

"This thing is mainly useful for travel, so it can indeed play a significant role in daily life."

Whether ordinary people or royalty, everyone can enjoy this, so our Great Ming welcomes all countries to come and purchase this item from our Great Ming.”

Princes and princesses from other countries also expressed their willingness to buy.

This isn't to say they're flattering him; they're genuinely interested in this thing.

After all, they had shown great interest when they saw the scooter that the Prince of Chechi Kingdom had brought out. Moreover, Zhu Yunwen's bicycle and tricycle were far superior to the Prince of Chechi Kingdom's scooter.

That naturally piqued their interest even more.

Not only has it been introduced to China, making travel more convenient for ordinary people, but they themselves are also very eager to learn it.

After all, it does seem really fun and very cool, and you can use it as a mode of transportation when you go out.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen steal the spotlight again, the prince of Chechi Kingdom was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

But at this moment, he actually found another point, so he stood up and asked:

"Then, Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, what are the prices for your so-called tricycles and two-wheeled vehicles?"

Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and said:

"In my Great Ming Dynasty, this bicycle sells for 500 coins, and this tricycle for 1,000 coins. Although the price is very high, as you can see, these things are very ingenious and definitely worth more than their price."

The princes and princesses present all nodded in agreement. Indeed, the price of five hundred and one thousand coins was a bit expensive, but the value of this bicycle even exceeded that of a horse.

However, it was sold for less than a horse, and you have to understand that at that time, the situation was similar in all countries.

A horse is worth a few taels of silver, while a bicycle costs only half a tael, five hundred coins.

A tricycle only costs one or two taels of silver. It seems like a good deal no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, everyone felt that spending 500 to 1000 wen to buy a bicycle and a tricycle was not a problem at all.

But the prince of Chechi Kingdom smiled meaningfully, and then he spoke with absolute confidence:

"So I see that the tricycles and bicycles of the Ming Dynasty don't have any advantages, but they still sell quite well!"
