He opened his notebook and started writing on the 'stay' page.

'Red brick and green brick firing technique and technique',' reinforced concrete construction theory','cement formula and firing technique',' glass firing technique'.

He even felt that he should look for a few professional books on civil engineering.

After all, the ancient people had never come into contact with reinforced concrete buildings. He had to understand more.

The discussion on 'accommodation' was almost done. Next, it was about 'doing'!

"What was the way to travel in ancient times?”

"Ordinary people rely on two legs. The rich families rely on carriages to travel, and the royal family and nobles rely on eight carriages to travel!”

"There were not enough horses in ancient times, and the cost of raising horses was very high. Ordinary people could not afford them at all!”

"Even if they were transporting goods, they would usually use donkeys or mules to pull the cart.”

"I think the OP can develop a bicycle after he transmigrated. Anyway, the OP will bring rubber tree seeds over.”

"The bicycle is really good. The technical difficulty is not very high. The main difficulty for the Great Tang is the rubber used to make the tires. At that time, the Great Tang did not have it, but it was not a problem for the OP!”

"Indeed, after the OP transmigrated, he started to produce steel on a large scale. He has sufficient steel and rubber. As long as he remembers the principles and design drawings of the bicycle, it is completely feasible to produce a bicycle!”

"Once there are bicycles, there will be a huge improvement in the transportation of the ancient people. The efficiency of travel will increase by more than ten times!”

"Since the bicycle has been produced, there's no problem with the tricycle. Compared to the bicycle, the tricycle can carry more people and carry more goods!”

"OP, you definitely know how to make steam engines, right? Since they had a steam engine, they had to arrange a train as well!”

"Since there are trains on land, there must be boats on the water too. Sailboats will be developed in the early stages, and steamships will be arranged later!”

"That's right. Our country has a developed water network like the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal. Of course, we have to make full use of it.”

" Other than cars and boats, the original mode of travel can also be optimized. For example, a three-piece set of saddles, stirrups, and horseshoes can also greatly reduce the cost of people learning to ride horses. It can also be considered to increase the efficiency of travel!”

When it came to traveling, everyone discussed a lot about transportation.

In ancient times, there were actually very few means of transportation, mainly because of the limited source of power.

The driving force came from horses, donkeys, mules, cattle, and other livestock.

However, livestock also needed to rest and eat, and their strength was limited.

Therefore, the ancient means of transportation were basically inefficient.

Even if there were canals and they could travel by boat, big boats relied on sails. The wind in the inland river was small, so they mainly relied on oars or let the boat trackers pull them on the shore.

Therefore, even if it was shipped, the speed was very slow and the cost was high.

If he were to transmigrate, he would have to improve his means of transportation and increase his transportation capacity.

Otherwise, with so many businesses under his name and all kinds of goods sold all over the country, it would be a long time before the goods arrived.

Moreover, the transportation cost was so high. How could they lose all their profits on transportation?

The bicycle was indeed not bad. Although it could not carry any goods, it could still increase the speed by many times for a single person!

As for the difficulty of producing bicycles, it wasn't that high.

The technical difficulties were mainly in bearings, chains, rims, and tires.

Although it was difficult, it wasn't too difficult. It was mainly about the technology and knowledge of processing. He would focus on learning and understanding it later.

As for the tires, before rubber was available, he could only use wooden tires. However, since he had decided to bring rubber tree seeds, he could naturally use inflatable tires.

Compared to wooden wheels, inflatable tires were more energy-saving, wear-resistant, and smoother.

Especially when it came to bumpy roads, the driving experience of inflatable tires was much better than that of wooden wheels.

The only troublesome thing was that he had to learn how to ride a bicycle!

He still remembered the scene of him learning to ride a bicycle in the orphanage when he was young. At that time, he fell down countless times before he slowly grasped his balance and learned to ride a bicycle.

However, it was not a big problem. With the convenience and speed of the bicycle, everyone would naturally learn how to ride it.

As for the tricycle, the principle was similar to that of a bicycle, except that a bicycle had two wheels and a tricycle had three wheels.

However, a tricycle could carry more people and more goods. Compared to a bicycle for a single person, a tricycle could be used for family use or for transporting goods in a shop.

Of course, whether it was a bicycle or a tricycle, they could only be used as a means of transportation in a small area. The area they could travel in was very limited.

The number of people or goods they could carry was also very limited. They could not transport a large number of people or large quantities of goods, and the scope of transportation was also limited.

At this time, they needed trains and ships!

A train was a train that used a steam engine as its power source.

Naturally, everyone was familiar with the steam engine. As long as they added coal into it and kept boiling water, they could use the steam to drive it, and it could continue to run.

Unlike livestock, which needed rest.

Moreover, the driving force was many times stronger than livestock!

It could be said that as long as the train track was built, the train could bring a full train of people or goods to wherever it went!

As long as there was no coal, he could keep running and running for 24 hours without stopping!

This kind of efficiency and speed would satisfy his business plan after he transmigrated!

The difficulty of the train was the steam engine.

He had studied the steam engine in school before, so he was very clear about the basic principles of the steam engine.

The core principle was that the steam would push the pistons to reciprocate through thermal expansion and contraction, converting heat energy into kinetic energy.

He saw on the Internet that many people had made some small mini steam engines by themselves.

After he transmigrated, he would organize a group of people to study it. It would not be a problem to make a steam engine!
