"How...how is this possible?"
"That's exactly right, it wasn't like this before!"
They looked at each other, bewildered, surprised, and uncertain. They realized that what happened yesterday was true, but what happened today was also true.
Someone suddenly raised a question: "Could it be that they switched cars? The previous car and this one are not the same car at all?"
Upon first hearing this, some people, caught off guard, agreed without a second thought, but most people still had their heads.
"Impossible! It's amazing enough that they could build one car in such a short time. How could they possibly have time to build two?"
"I also think it's impossible. Besides, what would they gain from doing this? Just to play a trick on us? There's no need for that."
Many dissenting voices arose, and the winds shifted, with the righteous prevailing over the wicked. This caused some indignant craftsmen to turn pale and red with anger.
But there were no other reasons to argue.
That's right, the other party may not have wanted anything in return, but they were clearly playing a trick on them.
Look at this unparalleled car... Damn it, they actually managed to pull it off!
The car makers were no less shocked than anyone else.
Is this really a carriage they made?
They asked themselves the question.
Are they really that awesome?
Looking at it is like seeing their dream car.
The feeling was like floating in mid-air, unable to touch the sky above or the ground below; it was like a dream.
They were thrilled, shouting in their hearts – Look, this is what they had boldly envisioned, this is what they had built with their own hands, this is what their hard work had been worth.
Someone was breathing heavily.
Some people's eyes reddened, and they rubbed their eyes hard, trying to see more clearly.
Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong clenched their fists, their whole bodies trembling.
Ah Qing, Ah Qing, she did it! She really did everything she said. They didn't misplace their trust in her. They bet everything on her, and they really made the right bet!
All the craftsmen on the training ground broke down in fear, but Zheng Quchi's expression remained unchanged.
She was neither saddened by the ridicule of others nor pleased by the dramatic shift in circumstances; she calmly and intently stared at the speeding car.
Her mind was racing with numbers and calculations, taking in every detail of the operation and load of every component in the car, as well as any subtle discomfort or awkwardness.
"Stop!"
She suddenly shouted to stop him, which startled the driver, who immediately reined in the horse, and the carriage came to a screeching halt.
Old Ma was breathing heavily. There was a momentary impact when the carriage stopped abruptly, but the overall sturdiness and the strong grip of the wheels and chassis prevented the expected violent shaking.
By observing the tire tracks of a vehicle, one can calculate the impact force of a brief, sudden stop by distinguishing between normal ruts and ruts that have sunk and become stuck.
The first round of testing of the carriage is now complete.
Zheng Quchi ran over and talked to the driver.
The artisans' hearts, which had been racing wildly, finally calmed down a bit, much like the car had been slowed down.
After the carriage stopped, the passengers got off one after another.
Yuwen Sheng was wearing a mask, so his thoughts were unclear. However, from the way he lingered and touched the wooden carvings on the carriage, and the fact that his vermilion lips curved upwards a few degrees more than usual, it was clear that he was satisfied.
Wei Yao and Fu Rong were full of excitement. As soon as they got out of the car, they shook their heads in amazement.
"This is incredible! This is incredible!" Wei Yao's fox-like eyes sparkled, and she really wanted to pick up the incredible Zheng Quchi and throw him high in the air.
Unfortunately, with the general present, he could only rejoice in his mind and dared not act rashly.
Fu Rong gave Zheng Quchi a thumbs-up and exclaimed in amazement, "I'm impressed! I'm truly impressed!"
Yesterday was a nightmare.
So this is a miracle happening today.
Wang Zebang and Runtu, both with cold faces, were breathing more rapidly than usual. They stared blankly at Zheng Quchi, and it wasn't hard to guess what they were thinking.
Fu Changfeng and his friends were truly stunned.
"Impossible, how did they do that... such a big and heavy car, yet it's lighter and more stable and comfortable than other small cars?"
After they got off the car, Zheng Quchi ran to the car himself, found the raw egg that he had put under the mattress beforehand, and saw that it was intact. Only then did he show a slightly satisfied smile.
After she got off the bus, Fu Rong noticed the round eggs she was tossing and catching in her hand: "Hey, why are there eggs in the bus?"
“Eggs are fragile, so I use them to test the bumpiness of the car. If the shaking is violent, the egg will be impacted or become unstable and roll off,” Zheng Quchi explained.
"Is it not broken? It was running so fast just now?" Fu Rong exclaimed in surprise.
Zheng Quchi stared at the egg in his hand and smiled slightly: "Obviously, no."
Hey, Madam, why are you smiling so sweetly at an egg? We were just testing you in the car, why didn't you smile so sweetly at us? No, I mean, why did you smile so sweetly at the General?
What if the general feels resentful if you treat them differently?
Zheng Quchi handed the eggs to the driver as an extra treat for the evening, then asked them with a sincere expression, "General, and everyone in the carriage, could you share your experience of riding in the carriage this time?"
The other craftsmen all hurriedly gathered around, and this time they were proactive and enthusiastic, completely different from their previous behavior.
Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong listened intently to the genuine opinions that followed.
