Chapter 540 Mountain Bikes Go on Sale!
The double keyboard is an instrument that is said to allow one person to play an entire orchestra.
It's something ordinary people simply can't perform, because it requires an extremely high level of hand-foot coordination.
However, Xiao Yu is a ninth-level transcendent being, so his physical agility is naturally extremely high.
Even when using both hands and feet, he can perform it with ease and naturalness.
Nearly three minutes later, the music ended, and the women exclaimed in admiration, "Lord City Lord, what's the name of this song? What beautiful visuals! What a wonderful story!"
Each piece of music seemed to conjure up a corresponding scene for the women, making them even more captivated.
"It's called 'The Swift Sound of the Cloud Palace'! The prelude to 'Journey to the West'," Xiao Yu said calmly.
This can be considered as spreading Chinese divine music to another world.
After enjoying "Cloud Palace Melody", the luminous realm slowly descended.
Although the women were still somewhat reluctant to leave, they obediently brought out cushions.
He sat cross-legged in the courtyard, practicing the "Energy Guiding Technique".
Xiao Yu looked up at the moon again, sighing inwardly, "It seems that the Earth expands at its fastest speed every time, just before the full moon!"
On the night of the full moon, he could clearly sense fluctuations coming from deep underground.
After the two colorful spirit butterflies advanced to the eighth rank.
He can perceive it again by using energy perception.
The Earth is expanding rapidly.
If it continues to expand at that rate...
The Earth will collapse soon!
But now, the night of the full moon has passed, and the Earth is still expanding.
However, the expansion rate has decreased significantly.
"Why is the Earth expanding? Is it related to the moon?" Xiao Yu wondered to himself.
He speculated that the moon expanded at the same time as the Earth.
It's a very simple principle: the Earth today is at least hundreds or thousands of times larger than it used to be.
If the moon were still the same size as it is today, its impact on Earth would be greatly reduced!
"One day, I'll find out what really happened."
............
The following day, at the city lord's mansion.
"Brother, since we completed the transactions with the major powers, our sales have dropped significantly today." During lunchtime, Honglian reported on the situation of the commercial street for the day.
In the previous two or three days, not counting large transactions, the daily turnover was as high as several million or tens of millions.
But today, the morning's turnover was less than two million!
Even by the afternoon, the turnover will not exceed five million!
It is clear that consumption by major forces has weakened.
"In that case, it's time to launch mountain bikes." Xiao Yu nodded calmly.
On a whim, a new type of bicycle appeared in the courtyard.
"This is the bicycle that the city lord improved..." the wolf girl said, her eyes shining.
The bicycle frame is made of black crystal, and its entire body is jet black and shiny.
Overall, it looks similar to the previous bicycle.
The biggest difference is that the faucet handle is higher and the seat is lower.
The tires are wider and have more tread patterns.
It's obvious at a glance that these tires have excellent grip and are suitable for various terrains.
Even on rugged mountain paths, one can walk freely.
“That’s right, you can try it first.” Xiao Yu smiled faintly.
"Then I'll give it a try!" The wolf girl straddled him with her long legs.
She slightly adjusted the handlebars and pedals, and her eyes lit up.
Qi Sha pushed aside the bicycle's footrest, stepped on the pedal, and the bicycle immediately shot off.
"Hahaha...this bicycle is so much better than the original version!"
Qi Sha only stepped on it a few times before bursting into excited laughter.
The feel and smoothness of a mountain bike far surpass that of a regular bicycle; they're in a completely different league.
Moreover, the riding speed is one or two times faster than the previous bicycle!
"Come down here, let me try it too!" Catwoman called out as she stepped forward.
"Me too! Don't try to take it from me!" the bunny-eared girl said proudly.
The women immediately surrounded the mountain bikes, eager to try them out.
After just one ride, I was amazed to discover that this bicycle is absolutely fantastic!
Honglian, meanwhile, took out a notebook and recorded the data of the women riding bicycles one by one.
Finally, her mouth agape, she came to an astonishing conclusion: "My God! This new bicycle can reach speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour? How can it be so fast?! How did it do that?"
Previously, the fastest bicycle could only travel at 50 or 60 kilometers per hour, which was already considered quite fast!
But now? The speed has increased by almost three times?
"That's normal." Xiao Yu shrugged and explained casually, "I combined mechanical arts and the principle of leverage to add an accelerator to the original mountain bike wheel."
Its function is that, on a normal bicycle, when you step on the pedal, the wheel turns once.
The mountain bike I designed can make two rotations with just one pedal stroke.
Therefore, it can directly double the speed of a bicycle, and besides that...
"I see! That sounds amazing." Honglian didn't understand much about mechanisms and leverage, but she was still very surprised.
After all, Dragon City has a wide variety of goods, but all the major powers have bought everything they could.
There was only a bicycle, although it wasn't very fast.
If we really want to compare, any level three or four expert can run faster than a bicycle at full speed.
But... in the apocalypse, there are no means of transportation, and people usually get around on foot.
Therefore, bicycles still have a significant market for people who don't want to walk.
However, ordinary bicycles are not suitable for mountain roads in the wilderness.
But now, the complete transformation is successful, and the top speed reaches 150 kilometers per hour!
Moreover, with tires that are wide enough and have more tread patterns, it is very safe to ride on mountain roads.
"We can start promoting mountain bikes this afternoon. I'll inform A Qiu and the others to put aside all their work and expedite the production of a batch of mountain bikes!" Xiao Yu said, then added, "Also, let's set the cycling competition for three days from now."
“Okay, brother!” Honglian nodded happily.
This mountain bike is an epic upgrade compared to the previous one.
Not only is it faster, but it's also safer, so it's sure to be a hit!
……
In the afternoon, inside a bicycle shop on the commercial street.
"Sigh..." Chen Xi, the saleswoman in uniform, sighed, "We've only sold less than ten bicycles today. If this continues, won't we lose our jobs?"
"I heard that the bicycle factory produced thousands of bicycles, but not many have been sold yet." Another girl, Xiaoyue, shook her head with a wry smile. "We can only take it one step at a time."
Two teenage girls were applying for jobs as bicycle sales assistants.
I just think bicycles are a great mode of transportation, and everyone should like them.
With their eloquence, selling them shouldn't be difficult.
But now... ever since people learned that they couldn't ride the mountain roads, fewer and fewer people are buying bicycles.
If it weren't for the new residents of Longcheng buying a lot of things, they wouldn't have been able to meet their sales targets for this month.
