Xiao Ye had invited more than just one child beggar. He had invited all the child beggars in the east of the city and had them spread the news everywhere.

He had even started to shout slogans, “If you want to buy a car, then get in the Jian Family’s Bicycle!’

In less than two days, everyone knew that Princess Ding’an had invented a bicycle that she could ride on, it was called a bicycle

After that, many people wanted to find Jian Qingqing to ask what the bicycle was.

Jian Qingqing had a headache. She simply gave Xiao Ye full authority to take care of this matter, and even gave him the money she had accepted before

“You can pay 70 percent of this money back to your family, and you can split the rest.”

Xiao Hu and the rest were pleasantly surprised. They exclaimed, “Sis, we’ll definitely make a lot of money!’

Xiao Ye used this money and spent a lot of money to hire all the craftsmen in the Capital who were quite skilled. Of course, they could also take on their own private work, but they had to make bicycles for at least four hours a day. The base salary was 20 taels a month, and they would also be paid extra for processing. The more they did, the more money they would get.

Of course, they had to sign a contract before they started work. The craftsmen had to work for at least a year. Within this year, they were not allowed to make bicycles and sell them. Otherwise, they would be fined a huge sum of money.

The salary that Xiao Ye was giving him was still very attractive. An ordinary craftsman might need to do a good job for a few months to earn 20 taels, and he would have to spend all his time every day.

As for working in the Jian Family, he only needed to work for four hours to get 20 taels a month. Where else could he find such a good deal?

They did not mind that they could not make bicycles on their own. They had heard that bicycles were sold for 100 taels. Even if they could make them, they did not know anyone who could spend so much money on them. They usually made chairs, tables, and cabinets to sell to ordinary people at a very low price. They were just making a living.

Therefore, most of the people signed the agreement and happily came to the Jian Family to work.

Because riding a bicycle was much more convenient and comfortable than riding a carriage, and it was fun to watch, many people with small assets bought one to try it.

For a time, the streets and alleys of the Capital were filled with people riding bicycles. This seemed to have become a trend, and they felt that riding a bicycle was a very honorable thing to do.

As a result, everyone who could afford a bicycle bought one and rode it out in a majestic manner. Xiao Ye had made a lot of money. The money he had handed over was hundreds of thousands. The speed at which he made money made Jian Qingqing speechless.

The day was early, and the Imperial Duke was stuck on a blocked street.

He anxiously wiped the sweat from his forehead, his heart full of worry.

Every morning when they had to go to court) this road would be blocked once. There was no other way. All the officials went in carriages. Once there were too many carriages, the road would naturally be blocked.

At this moment, he was feeling a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he would have ridden his horse out this morning.

However, he was getting on in years, and riding a horse always felt bumpy, as if all the bones in his body were about to fall apart, so he would not ride it if he could.

But for some reason, they had been stuck here for almost half an hour today. If they did not leave now, it would be too late. The officials in front of them got off the carriage and cursed.

Just as the Imperial Duke was hesitating whether to ask someone to go back and bring a horse, he saw a figure ‘floating’ over from not far away..
