- The reason why Zhao Hao wanted Lin Run to see a doctor was because he remembered that Lin Run would die in office in the third year of Longqing.
Lin Run was only thirty-nine years old in the third year of Longqing, so he obviously died of illness. Therefore, based on the principles of early examination, early detection and early treatment, he gave Lin Zhongcheng medical advice.
But Lin Run didn¡¯t have time to seek medical treatment, so he had no choice but to wait until Lin Run left Songjiang and ask Wan Mi Zhai to see a doctor.
What year is this?
??~~
Mr. Zhao¡¯s motorcade left the governor¡¯s office and entered Academy Lane.
Because the predecessor of the Governor's Office was Heshan Academy in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, it got this name.
Normally, this street should be named Fushuqian Street or Fuyuanqian Street, but the people of Suzhou have stubbornly refused to change the name, as if they were expressing their disobedience in this way.
Mr. Zhao¡¯s car drove slowly on the gravel road. It was much more comfortable than an ordinary carriage because it was a four-wheeled carriage with tires installed.
The tire is a solid tire made of Eucommia rubber and vulcanized directly on the rim. After the carriage is replaced with such tires, the vibration and noise during driving are greatly reduced, and the comfort is greatly improved.
But in fact, what is more revolutionary is the wheel structure of the carriage.
Ninety-nine percent of the carriages in the Ming Dynasty were two-wheeled. This is because the four-wheeled carriages of the Ming Dynasty simply assembled the four wheels onto the frame, and the two front wheels could not rotate left or right.
This kind of four-wheeled carriage can drive well on straight roads. However, once turning, more animals must be used to pull and pull to complete the turn, which is naturally not as practical as a two-wheeled carriage with flexible steering.
So at this time, four-wheeled trucks were extremely rare, and four-wheeled passenger carriages only appeared on ceremonial occasions.
But the stability, comfort, and load capacity of a four-wheeled carriage are unmatched by a two-wheeled carriage.
So how can we make the four-wheeled carriage turn flexibly?
Zhao Hao told Zhang Zai that in fact, this problem is not difficult at all. He only needs to install the front two wheels of the carriage on one frame, and the rear two wheels on another frame. The front and rear frames are connected by a Vertical shaft connection is enough.
?????????????In fact, it is a combination of two two-wheeled vehicles. The age-old problem of ¡®four-wheel vehicle steering¡¯ has been cleverly solved.
And in addition to the ¡®bogie¡¯, Mr. Zhao also ¡®invented¡¯ the ¡®shock absorber¡¯.
???A traditional carriage has two pieces of wood placed at the bottom of the carriage, and the axle is tied to them with ropes. The shape of the wood is like a crawling rabbit, so it is called "Flying Rabbit".
The Futu separates the axle from the carriage, which plays a certain role in shock absorption.
Zhao Hao asked Blacksmith Gao to buckle and beat two bow-shaped low-carbon steel plates together, and a primitive 'steel plate shock absorber' was completed. Use it to replace Futu, and the effect is immediate.
With the blessing of the three magic weapons of rubber tires, steering gears and shock absorbers, Mr. Zhao finally single-handedly made Ming Dynasty's vehicle manufacturing level catch up with and surpass that of Europe at the same time, reaching the world's leading level.

Sitting on a new-style carriage covered with thick soundproof carpets and equipped with comfortable soft chairs, Mr. Zhao almost felt as if he were sitting in a car.
Although this car only had two horsepower, it still made him feel extremely satisfied.
When wealth reaches Master Zhao¡¯s level, the threshold for him to enjoy it becomes higher and higher.
?Those things that ordinary people enjoy immensely, or even cannot enjoy, are simple, boring and boring in his eyes.
Only the treatment that others cannot enjoy, the only one in the world, can allow him to find his sincere joy.
Mr. Zhao sat comfortably on a soft chair covered with sapphire blue velvet and filled with natural sponge. He held a transparent tall glass in his hand, and occasionally glanced lazily at the slightly swaying scarlet in the glass Pomegranate juice.
??????????????? More often, he would look through the glass lathe at the busy people on the street.
That¡¯s the shopkeeper yelling at the guys to clean up the messy shop; it¡¯s the carpenters and painters repairing the damaged doors and windows and counters; it¡¯s the weavers carrying bags of raw silk, rushing to the workshop
It¡¯s almost October. If we don¡¯t start work as soon as possible and seize back the lost time, how can we have money to celebrate the New Year?
Looking at the Suzhou City that had regained order and vitality, Mr. Zhao felt a strong sense of satisfaction in his heart.
¡°This is all thanks to this young master. He raised his glass gently to the busy citizens on the street.
"You're welcome, just work hard for me."
On the street, while the citizens were busy working, they glanced sideways at this impressive motorcade and commented sourly:
"This carriage is different, it has four wheels."
"Shaobao, aren't two of them enough?"
"But it's just a pomp. I wonder whose master is going out?"
¡°I¡¯ve never seen it before, this team is very unfamiliar to me.¡±
"They are all big dogs anyway, bah!" The citizens vented their remaining anger on the motorcade that was swaggering through the city.
"Bah!"
"Bah, bah!"
"Bah, bah, bah!"
Fortunately, the carriage was well insulated and Mr. Zhao didn't hear it, otherwise his heart would be broken.
??~~
So Mr. Zhao was able to maintain a happy mood and returned to Lengxiang Garden on Panmennei Street.
This is Jiang Xueying¡¯s garden. The name "Lengxiang" comes from Ma Zhiyuan's "Rose dew, lotus leaf rain, chrysanthemum frost and cold fragrance".
Wu Ji¡¯s headquarters is in Suzhou, and Jiang Xueying spends most of the year here. It¡¯s not an exaggeration to say that this is her home.
Zhao Hao has not yet bought a house in Suzhou. He will stay in the city for a while. He originally planned to let Gao Wu go to Baojia Inn.
"But Sister Jiang strongly invited him to live in Lengxiangyuan, but Mr. Zhao couldn't refuse, so he had to accept her.
This garden is not too big, covering an area of ??"only" eight acres and one-third, but its layout is exquisite and original, allowing people to change scenery as they move around, just like in a travel painting.
After entering the garden from the west gate, there is a flower hall for entertaining guests. The interior is clear, bright and simple. Equipped with finely carved chicken-wing wooden lattice windows, you can have a panoramic view of the exquisite beauty of plum bamboo, plantain and rockery in the small garden behind the hall.
Turning around the rockery, the real essence of Lengxiang Garden comes into view. I saw a pool of blue waves in the center of the garden, surrounded by rockeries, corridors, waterside pavilions and terraces.
??The promenade and waterside pavilions are built around the pond. Looking north across the bank, you can see the meandering corridors and willows. To the west is a cluster of balconies for the owner's residence, all with long glass windows. The hall is high and open, making it look very grand. This is very rare in other Suzhou gardens.
The terrace in front of the hall is wide and adjacent to the pool. The terrace is also connected to an ancient nine-curved stone bridge.
Under the guidance of the maid, Zhao Hao walked along the stone bridge to the double-story lakeside pavilion in the center of the pool.
I saw a plaque with the words "Shuiyun Pavilion" hanging on the lintel of the pavilion.
On the couplets on both sides of the door, there is a poem by Su Dabeard, "The water and clouds in the plains are rippling, the wind and the sun are gentle in the small building."
Mr. Zhao then strolled into the building.
The gauze curtain in the pavilion hangs lightly, and there are bookshelves, ancient bookshelves, incense burners, desks, piano tables, and chess scales for playing chess.
And three pretty and lovely girls.
