Chapter 75 Unlocking the Bicycle
After returning to the carriage, the girl's bright and shy face immediately turned cold.
"What an ungrateful thing, it's his blessing that I call him brother!"
"What a broken car, it's not made of precious wood, nor does it have exquisite carvings. You dare to sell me a hundred taels for this broken thing?"
"If I really bought it, I'm afraid I would be laughed to death."
The girl was angry in the carriage, slamming things, and the maid next to her was so scared that she didn't dare to breathe.
"That boy has several children. Apart from having a pretty face, he is useless. He is not worthy of you at all. Why do you care about him?"
"That won't work!"
The girl lifted the curtain in front of the window and looked out.
Outside the window, the man in a long gown lowered his eyebrows, holding the child and whispering to the beautiful girl beside him, gentle and elegant.
The girl's eyes were red for no reason.
"You are just a commoner, why do you look down on me?"
"Even if you don't let me call you brother, I will do it anyway."
Gan Tian was held in her father's arms. Listening to her father coaxing her mother, she couldn't help giggling.
Suddenly, a burning gaze was cast over, with malice and an uncomfortable possessiveness.
Gan Tian looked in the direction of the gaze and happened to meet the girl's eyes.
[I was scared to death, could it be that she is holding a grudge against us because she didn't get the tricycle? ]
Hearing the little guy's voice, everyone looked towards the carriage and saw the girl's resentful eyes.
Tang Jiajun, who was originally repairing nearby, stood up suddenly and blocked the girl's sight.
Although the people sent by Tang Shi changed into casual clothes, they had been on the battlefield and had a different aura. They were full of unparalleled fighting spirit, which scared the girl. She immediately put down the curtain and dared not continue to watch.
"Miss, are you okay?"
The girl slapped the maid fiercely: "Useless thing, do you still expect me to be in trouble?"
The maid covered her face and apologized repeatedly.
Seeing that the girl was honest, the leader of the team walked to Gan Fanren's side.
"Are you okay, sir?
" "No, who is that girl?"
"I don't know her, but looking at the mark on the carriage, she should be from Xingyuefang."
The leader reminded in a low voice: "Xingyuefang is a royal merchant. It is said that the owner of Xingyuefang is a woman. Her relationship with His Majesty is... very deep, and it can even be said to be very private. Xingyuefang is also notoriously overbearing. My lord must be careful. "
Although the words are vague, those who understand will understand.
[The owner of Xingyuefang is actually having an affair with the emperor?]
[With such a close relationship, why would she turn to the male protagonist?]
[Could it be that the male protagonist is not a king of a different surname at all, but is actually the old emperor's illegitimate son? ]
Apart from being the old emperor's illegitimate son, Gan Tian really couldn't imagine why the old emperor's money bag would suddenly turn to someone else and not be held accountable by the old emperor.
After listening to his daughter's words, Gan Fanren also had some guesses.
No hurry.
Time is the best answer.
No matter what the identity of the male protagonist is, he will not let the male protagonist hurt his wife and daughter.
But... if that male protagonist is really the old emperor's illegitimate son, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with him.
No matter how powerful he is, he is just a commoner. How can he fight against the royal relatives?
Gongsun Yue came late and knew very little about this male protagonist, but he could also hear from Gan Tian's voice from time to time that this male protagonist was not a good person.
He is like a jinx. Anyone who gets involved with him will be in trouble.
It seems that Brother Gan will also be tricked by this male protagonist in the future. He must stay away from this male protagonist and cling to Brother Gan's thigh. No matter
how powerful the male protagonist is, is he as powerful as Brother Gan?
Not to mention Brother Gan's intelligence, just say that the Gan family is protected by the fairy queen, which means that the male protagonist is destined to be unable to make waves!
No matter how powerful he is, Is she more powerful than the goddess of immortals?
Gan Fanren saw that the girl from Xingyuefang was a delicate one, and relying on the Tang family army to see her off, he took almost any remote road in the following days.
At night, he did not sleep in the inn, but set up a few tents and slept in the ruined temples in the deserted village, sleeping wherever he could.
After following him for a few days, the girl could not stand it anymore and had to leave angrily.
As soon as the girl left, someone came over.
"Brother, I heard someone say that you offered one hundred taels for this tricycle. I wonder if you can sell it to me?"
A businessman had been coveting this tricycle for a long time, but he did not dare to offend Xingyuefang, so he did not speak up.
Seeing that the people from Xingyuefang had left, he dared to stand up.
This time Gan Fanren did not hesitate: "Okay. "
Gan Fanren happily sold the cart.
Then he took the money and bought another cart in the village.
He spent one or two taels of silver to buy the cart, and made a huge profit of ninety-nine taels.
Li Zhi made some modifications to the cart, but he was not satisfied with it no matter how he modified it.
"I used to think my cart was pretty good, but it's far worse than Song Ci's."
"I don't know what's wrong with Song Ci's brain, it looks like mine."
Su Nanxing looked at Li Zhi, who was sweating profusely from exhaustion, took out a handkerchief, and considerately wiped the sweat from Li Zhi's forehead.
"But I still think that the cart modified by Brother Li is better, it's flat and stable. "
Hearing Su Nanxing's praise, Li Zhi worked harder.
Gan Tian touched the new money, chuckled, and unlocked all the parts of the 28-inch bicycle.
The next morning, ten 28-inch bicycles appeared out of thin air in the broken temple.
Although Gan Tian thought this thing was outdated, for Li Zhi and others who had never seen the world, this 28-inch bicycle was very novel. They studied the 28-inch bicycle for a long time, but could not figure out how to ride it.
It was Gongsun Yue who first figured out how to ride, and then taught everyone.
Gan Fanren was the second one to learn, and although he didn't learn as fast as Gongsun Yue, he rode very steadily, not at all rashly, as if he was born to ride a bicycle, and it was completely impossible to tell that he had just learned it.
The others saw this new thing and wanted to learn it, but no one would have thought that Hui Niang would be the third one to learn it.
Gan Tian watched Hui Niang riding the 28-inch bicycle with great vigor, and couldn't help but applaud in her heart.
[Mom is so great, so amazing.]
Seeing that Hui Niang had learned it, Su Nanxing also started to learn it seriously.
After two days, almost everyone had learned it, even General Tang's men had learned it.
"This thing is great, where did you get it, sir?"
Although Gan Fanren often appeared as a divine messenger, no one in the court knew about it except Gongsun Wu, Tang Shi, and Wu Zhi.
If it wasn't for the last resort, Gan Fanren didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he used the same excuse as before and said, "I couldn't sleep last night, so I walked around and saw someone selling this thing. I was curious and bought more."
"How much did you pay for it, sir? Can you sell me one?"
"I want one, too ."
"I want one, too."
Gan Fanren smiled and said, "You know, carts are not cheap. My wooden wheel cart sold for 100 taels, so this one is not cheap either."
Gan Fanren stretched out a finger.
