At the time, their thinking was superficial; they assumed that this dragon-drawn carriage might be better than other carriages.
However, after the test just now, they finally realized that the Panlong Carriage was completely different from all other carriages, except that they were all called carriages.
If we look at the Panlong chariot running and dealing with various obstacles from the outside, its ability is characterized by stability and agility.
Only those sitting inside can truly appreciate its uniqueness.
It can make people in the car feel as safe as possible when dealing with any road conditions.
In the past, even on relatively flat roads, riding in a horse-drawn carriage would cause severe shaking if it went fast, making you feel like you were being thrown into a blender.
Even on that bumpy road, amidst such perilous conditions, they didn't experience any particularly severe jolting or vibration inside the car. It acted like a fortress, protecting them inside.
That's truly amazing.
Because of this, to this day, none of the seven chariot makers have been able to achieve it.
Yuwen Sheng’s voice was as gentle as a spring breeze as he said solemnly, “Perhaps what I say will not satisfy you, but this time, I can’t give you a better answer. The only word that comes to mind is ‘very good.’”
Zheng Quchi looked at him, and he wasn't dissatisfied at all; in fact, he was quite happy.
If someone as experienced as Yuwen Sheng, who has seen many fine things, approves of the dragon-cart she made, does this mean that her carriage is truly excellent?
On a smooth, flat road, the carriage she built might not seem much different from those made by the top carriage makers in Ye Kingdom. But once they faced raging waves, the difference between them became immediately apparent.
It is stunning on the outside and even more astonishing on the inside.
Wang Zebang was also quite unsettled.
He had just convinced himself to accept that the lady might be a very charming person, but in such a short time, before he could even fully process it, he had to face the fact that the general's wife was a formidable figure who could astound the craftsmen of the seven kingdoms.
Is he truly blind, or is he genuinely blind?
For the first time, he doubted himself.
He stepped forward with a heavy heart and said loudly, "Now that both wheels have been displayed, let's have the craftsmen vote for the dragon-cart."
At this moment, everyone silently glanced at their ticket paddles and then went up...
The vote is about to start. I wonder how many votes they will get?
Mu Gaoyi and his group were still somewhat nervous; in fact, they had already mentally assessed the highest possible number of votes.
But whether they can defeat Fu Changfeng depends on whether these craftsmen are fair. If they are biased and disregard the facts...
The soldier in charge of collecting the tickets came to the artisan group, handed over the tray, collected the tickets in turn, counted the number of tickets, and then redistributed them to the artisans before returning to report the number of tickets he had collected to Lieutenant Wang.
After receiving the answer, Wang Zebang clasped his hands in greeting to the general, then turned to announce to everyone: "Total votes: 107. The wooden dragon-cart, 34 contestants. Subtracting the contestants' 34 votes, 73 votes remain. Your votes are..."
He looked at Zheng Quchi and said with genuine admiration, "Seventy-three votes!"
Seventy-three votes?
Zheng Quchi was taken aback.
She turned her eyes and met the equally bewildered Mu Gaoyi and the others.
This means that, apart from themselves, all the remaining craftsmen have actually devoted themselves to them?
Of course, that also includes Fu Changfeng, who has a grudge against Mu Gaoyi and the others?
This must be a sign that blood is about to fall from the sky.
"Changfeng, you...you voted for them too?" Fu Changfeng's companion asked in surprise.
Fu Changfeng's face darkened: "Who voted for them? I... I voted for Aqing!"
This was his last act of defiance.
At this moment, a car maker overheard this and replied happily, "No matter what you say, voting for Aqing is voting for us. We didn't realize that Master Fu was so magnanimous. We've always misunderstood you."
"Shut up, you're all acting innocent after getting the benefits," Fu Chang said sarcastically.
A small group of craftsmen had not yet displayed their woodenware, but after seeing Aqing's dragon-cart and Zhu Yu's example, they all lost confidence and unanimously chose to abstain.
After receiving a perfect score, Zheng Quchi went straight to Yuwen Sheng.
The shrewd and intelligent air she had displayed earlier, commanding the overall situation, vanished instantly. With her bright, sparkling eyes wide open, she asked expectantly, "General, does that mean our Panlong chariot can represent Fuxian County at the Jichun Craftsmen's Guild?"
"According to the voting rules, since you have won first place, you can naturally join the Jichun Craftsmen's Guild along with the army."
"Wow, that's great! We can participate in the Jichun Craftsmen's Guild this year. If we can make it to the preliminary round, it will be a great honor for our Ye Kingdom!"
All the craftsmen cheered with joy.
Yuwen Sheng added, "However, your team has too many people; only three of you can participate."
Before they could discuss it, the craftsmen below suggested, "Let's take Aqing with us."
“Yes, Aqing can represent us, we all recommend Aqing.”
"If there are three, then Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong should go together too."
Zheng Quchi turned his head and saw that the entire car manufacturing team was smiling and recommending the three of them, without arguing or vying for their spots.
Mu Gaoyi felt both sad and grateful. He said, "The Panlong Chariot was made by us together, so even though only three of us are going, it doesn't mean there are only three of us. When we get to the Jichun Craftsmen's Guild, Aqing and I will show the Panlong Chariot to the craftsmen of the seven kingdoms. From now on, our Ye Kingdom will also have something made in Ye Kingdom."
