Chapter 24: Cool Tricycle
But she didn't say anything, just looked at Shen Lin with her big eyes.
Shen Lin opened the window and looked down, and saw Qiangzi, who was wearing a big vest, looking towards his window.
Qiangzi is looking for me at this time...
"Wife, I asked Qiangzi to help me build a tricycle. It seems that everything is ready. I'll go and take a look." Shen Lin said to Lu Xiaorong immediately.
Lu Xiaorong hesitated for a moment and said, "Since you have something to do, just go and do it. You don't need to ask me about this kind of thing."
"I promise not to mess around with them." Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong, who was holding his head high and looked like he was saying, "Whatever you do, it has nothing to do with me," and said with a smile.
As he spoke, Shen Lin said towards the window: "I'll be down right away."
Looking at Shen Lin walking down the stairs quickly, Qiangzi's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt. The person running down the stairs was the familiar Shen Lin, but when did Shen Lin learn to repair the large color TV?
"Brother Shen, we have already arranged everything for you." Qiangzi swallowed his saliva and smiled as he said to Shen Lin, "Is everyone in the maintenance department of Guangzi's factory now?"
It's great that everything is ready.
Shen Lin, who felt a little bit broken after pulling the flatbed cart these days, was full of longing for the tricycle he designed.
"Let's go and take a look."
As he spoke, Shen Lin's eyes fell on a tricycle with only one wheel left on the side of the corridor. He then walked in front of the tricycle and said, "Qiangzi, help me lift the tricycle onto the flatbed truck."
Qiangzi also saw the rusty and dilapidated tricycle. He thought of the parts Shen Lin asked him to find, and he understood Shen Lin's purpose.
Shen Lin wanted to repair this tricycle that was almost falling apart.
But he didn't quite understand why Guangzi had to use an old engine to repair the tricycle.
The tricycle with only one wheel left was not very heavy to begin with, and Shen Lin and Qiangzi were both strong and healthy guys. They easily loaded the tricycle onto the flatbed truck, and Shen Lin pulled the flatbed truck away.
"Brother Shen, let me do it." Qiangzi came to Shen Lin and said.
"It's okay, it's quite light. If it sinks, I'll let you pull it." Shen Lin said jokingly.
Watching Shen Lin pulling the flatbed cart forward, Qiangzi felt more and more confused. According to his understanding of Shen Lin, Shen Lin was very arrogant and had never pulled such a flatbed cart before.
The yard of the maintenance department was three miles away from where Shen Lin lived. When Shen Lin pulled the tricycle into the yard, Guangzi and several other good friends of his were already waiting there.
"Brother Shen, why are you pulling the cart by yourself? Qiangzi, you don't have any eyesight, why do you let Brother Shen pull the cart!" Guangzi said affectionately when he saw Shen Lin.
Shen Lin wiped the sweat off his face with his hand and said with a smile: "Qiangzi insisted on pulling, but I just wanted to exercise."
As he spoke, he said to the people around him, "Brothers, help me lift this tricycle down."
Guangzi looked at the dilapidated tricycle and smacked his lips and said, "Brother Shen, this tricycle is too broken. Even if it is repaired, it will be very difficult to pedal."
"I think you might as well save up your money and buy a new one."
Shen Lin smiled and said, "I want to buy a new one too, but I don't have a tricycle ticket, so I plan to save up for one myself."
"By the way, Qiangzi, have you finished the old motorcycle engine I asked you to prepare?"
Qiangzi hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Shen, how could I neglect the things you arranged? But the engine is a bit too old, and the noise is a bit loud when it starts."
As he spoke, Qiangzi handed an old motorcycle engine to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin took a careful look at the old engine and found that although it was full of oil and rust, it was generally intact.
It should work!
"It's okay. I know what's wrong with it. I can fix it later." Shen Lin said to the others, "Are all the things you guys prepared for me ready?"
"Brother Shen, you arranged it, how can I not help you do it." A thin young man said, "Two days ago, I asked my father, a level 6 welder, to weld the long box that you made with iron plates."
"My dad asked me to ask you, Brother Shen, what exactly ?"
As the young man spoke, he handed Shen Lin a long box with an interface.
Shen Lin took a look at the long box and found that there was no crack. He thought that it was worthy of the work of a senior welder. It was much better than that of an ordinary repair shop master.
“This is the gas tank.”
The young man was stunned for a moment. He looked at the long iron box and really didn't know what to say.
It's not like he hasn't seen fuel tanks before. Is there a fuel tank like this?
"Brothers, help me. Once everything is ready, I will treat everyone to a good meal today."
"There's a delicious dish!" Shen Lin put down the fuel tank and said loudly.
The word "hard dish" immediately made Qiangzi and other young men's eyes light up.
Although their family was not poor, they could only eat meat one or two days a month. When they heard about eating meat, their eyes lit up.
"Brother Shen, you said this." Qiangzi swallowed his saliva and said with anticipation: "When the time comes, Brother Shen, don't deny it."
Shen Lin didn't say anything. He picked up the bearing and chain and said, "Come here, someone who knows how to weld, help me weld them."
Under Shen Lin's command, the parts that were originally in a mess and even in the eyes of Guangzi and others, they didn't know how to use them were quickly assembled by Shen Lin.
After adding a few old iron pipes to the dilapidated tricycle bed, the bed that was about to fall apart suddenly became solid. And a few tall racks increased the useable area of the tricycle bed several times.
Wheels, tank, engine...
More than two hours later, the sun began to set. Under the golden sunlight, a rough but metallic tricycle appeared in the yard.
The wheels of the three bicycles were of different thicknesses. At first glance, they were made of welded iron pipes, with a fence made of iron wires...
In one word, ugly!
"Brother Shen, how do you start this thing?" Guangzi and others looked at the installed engine and understood Shen Lin's idea.
Although they think this design seems to make sense, can it really be used?
Shen Lin smiled and said, "I don't know if it will work or not after trying it."
As he was speaking, Shen Lin sat on the half-broken seat of the tricycle and pedaled hard.
The tricycle moves forward quickly!
Shen Lin had this experience in his later life, and he knew that the more urgent it was, the faster he could not slow down, so he pedaled faster and faster.
“Buzz!”
The engine roared, and the harsh sound made Shen Lin's eardrums tremble.
The engine that Qiangzi gave him had quite a problem, but he was testing it right now, so Shen Lin didn't have time to pay attention to him.
The engine drove the gears, and the tricycle started to move quickly without Shen Lin pedaling.
Looking at the tricycle that was emitting black smoke but did not need Shen Lin to pedal, Guangzi, Qiangzi and others all widened their eyes.
