The base is designed so that the bottom of the horse's legs is not flat, but rather curved.

The curvature of the rocking horse, combined with the height of the wheels, provides a support point at both the front and back when the horse is stationary, preventing it from tipping over.

When a child sits on the rocking horse, leaning forward and shifting their center of gravity forward will cause the rocking horse to glide forward; leaning back and shifting their center of gravity backward will cause the rocking horse to glide backward.

[Ding! Constitution enhancement effect triggered - Speed ​​+0.1.]

Chen Hao placed the Trojan horse on the ground and inspected it.

The horse's body is smooth and free of burrs; its legs are firm and do not wobble; the wheels turn smoothly without jamming; and the saddle is secure and will not fall off.

He pressed down on the horse's back with his hand, pushing down hard, but the wooden horse remained as steady as a rock.

[Ding! Trojan horse completed. God-level woodworking experience points +156!]

"Tingting, it's ready. Come up and try it."

Shen Xiaoting rushed over, straddled the wooden horse, and grabbed the horse's ears with both hands—

Chen Hao specifically left two raised areas above the horse's head, which are just right for children to grip.

"Dad, how do we make it walk?"

"Push your feet off the ground, just like riding a scooter."

Shen Xiaoting put her feet on the ground, pushed off hard, and the rocking horse slid forward.

She slid for about two meters, then slowed down, pushed off again, and continued gliding.

As the rocking horse glides along, the curve of its body causes the entire horse to sway slightly back and forth, just like a real horse running.

"Wow—it's wobbling! It's wobbling!" Shen Xiaoting shouted excitedly, her voice echoing in the yard. "Dad! It really can walk! It's wobbling! Just like a real horse!"

She pushes off, slides a bit, pushes off again, and slides a bit more.

The rocking horse slid back and forth on the cement ground in the yard. Shen Xiaoting sat on it, her body swaying back and forth with the rocking horse, her little braids swinging back and forth, and her laughter as crisp as wind chimes.

"Daddy! This is so much fun! So much fun!"

Chen Hao stood to the side, watching his daughter ride around on the rocking horse, and smiled.

The live stream chat exploded when viewers saw this!

"Holy crap, it really can walk! And it even wobbles back and forth!"

"This design is ingenious. The curved base and wheels allow it to both glide and rock."

"The key point is that the streamer only took less than two hours from drawing the lines to finishing the work, which is incredibly fast."

"Handmade, mortise and tenon structure, solid wood, leather saddle, directional wheels—this quality is much better than those sold on Taobao."

"Hey streamer, why don't you open a shop? I want to buy something!"

"Same here! I want one too! For my nephew!"

"I'll offer 200! Will the streamer sell?"

"200 is too low. With the materials and workmanship, it's worth 300."

"I'll offer 300!"

"I'll offer 400!"

"500! Sell it to me, streamer!"

Gifts started raining down on the screen—

[“Xiao Liu, the stay-at-home dad,” is giving away one Carnival prize!]

[Received a tip: Douyin account #1 x1, gained 3000 popularity points!]

Chen Hao saw that many viewers in the bullet screen were asking if he was selling the Trojan horse, with offers ranging from 200 to 600.

A thought struck him—if he made and sold the Trojan horses, each one could fetch several hundred yuan. If he made several a day, it would amount to a considerable income over a month.

Moreover, the fans in the live stream are very supportive, so there's no worry about selling out.

He sent a message telepathically: "Thank you all for your support. I'll think about it. If I do it, I'll open a small shop on Douyin and let everyone know when that happens."

"Great! Looking forward to it!"

"Hurry up and open your shop, streamer!"

"I want to be the first to place an order!"

Shen Xiaoting rode the rocking horse around the yard several times until she finally got tired. She got off, ran to her father, and took his hand: "Daddy, this rocking horse is so much fun! I want to name it!"

"What name should we choose?"

"Call it...call it 'Little Brown'! Because it's brown!"

"Okay, let's call her Xiao Zong." Chen Hao squatted down and patted his daughter's head.

"Tingting, Daddy wants to make more of these rocking horses and sell them online. What do you think?"

Shen Xiaoting thought for a moment, then nodded seriously: "Okay! That way other kids can ride Little Brown too!"

Chen Hao smiled, stood up, and said to his daughter, "Tingting, stop for now. Daddy has to go to Grandpa and Grandma's to take care of some things. We'll play again when I'm done."

"Okay." Shen Xiaoting obediently got off the rocking horse.

Chen Hao ended the live stream.

He carried the wooden horse in one hand and held his daughter's hand in the other, walked out of the yard, and headed towards the small shop along the village road.

Inside the convenience store, Meng Meiling was tidying up the shelves behind the counter, while Chen Bingzhong sat on a plastic chair by the door, his right arm still wrapped in gauze, drinking tea from a thermos.

Seeing Chen Hao carrying a wooden object over, the two of them stood up.

"Haohao, what are you holding?" Meng Meiling asked.

Chen Hao placed the rocking horse on the ground, and Shen Xiaoting immediately straddled it, pushed off with her feet, slid around on the cement floor, and slid to her grandparents.

"Grandpa! Grandma! Look! This is the rocking horse Dad made for me! It can walk!" she shouted as she slid along, her little face full of pride.

Meng Meiling's eyes widened, and Chen Bingzhong's hand, holding a teacup, froze in mid-air.

They watched as Shen Xiaoting rode the rocking horse, gliding back and forth on the cement ground in front of the door. The rocking horse swayed back and forth, the wheels turned smoothly, and Shen Xiaoting laughed heartily on it.

"This...you made this?" Chen Bingzhong looked at Chen Hao, his voice filled with disbelief.

"Yes, I made it this morning." Chen Hao nodded.

Meng Meiling walked over, squatted down, and touched the rocking horse.

The horse's body is smooth and free of burrs; its legs are firm and do not wobble; the saddle is made of leather and feels comfortable to the touch; the wheels turn smoothly.

She stood up, looked at Chen Hao, and opened her mouth several times before she could speak.

"Haohao, when did you learn to make this?"

"Any carpenter can do this, it's not difficult," Chen Hao smiled.

"Not difficult?" Chen Bingzhong snorted. "You try making one for me? I can't even make a stool properly."

Shen Xiaoting rode back on the rocking horse, got off, ran to her grandmother, looked up at her, and said:

"Grandma, Daddy said he's going to sell this rocking horse! Sell it online! Then other kids can ride it too!"

Meng Meiling looked at Chen Hao: "You want to sell this?"

"Hmm." Chen Hao picked up the rocking horse. "Dad, Mom, I want to open a small shop on Douyin and sell this rocking horse."

During today's live stream, many viewers asked me if they wanted to buy it, offering several hundred yuan. I'd like to give it a try.

Chen Bingzhong frowned: "Can this thing even be sold?"
