The bells jingled on the official road, and it was the horse team passing by.

A large number of pack horses were loaded with goods, silently lined up in irregular rows, and walked slowly forward. There were many people following them. They cherished their horsepower and did not go on horseback, but placed their luggage on horseback, and followed them on the roadside.

Fang Chang was faster than the pack horses. When he let go, he quickly caught up with the horse team. However, he slowed down again, because as there were many people walking together, they gathered in groups and chatted while rushing on the road as usual.

After all, ordinary people are not marching when they are on the road, so they don’t need to shut up and move forward. Although it is efficient, it is too boring.

In the horse team, there is a person who looks like a little leader who walks more than others. He moves forward quickly, sometimes slows down and deliberately falls at the end of the team, assigns tasks to check the surrounding situation, and is busy. Fang Chang looks at it and feels that he is very kind-hearted and seems to have seen it somewhere.

But he had not gone down the mountain for a hundred years, so he calculated it in his mind and thought of the root cause of this feeling.

After taking a few steps forward, Fang Chang followed the middle of the horse team. When the people inside the horse team saw the long sword behind Fang Chang, they felt a little nervous. Some of them looked stronger and more determined to get in this direction. It seems that these people are more responsible for the security work.

Someone came up and said something in his ear when the young man walked past the team like a little leader.

The young man looked in this direction from the corner of his eyes, and immediately understood the current situation. He gently leaned over to Fang Chang and spoke: "This gentleman looks quite extraordinary, is he a man in the martial arts world?"

"Not that, I shouldn't be considered a man from the martial arts world, and there is no name in the martial arts world." Fang Chang smiled. He did not report his name, but asked back: "You are the manager of the horse team?"

"It's just the deputy supervisor. I don't know where you are from? Where are you going?" the young man continued to ask.

"From the way, go, go," Fang Chang continued to respond with a smile, "In fact, there is no purpose, just walk around and look at the past. By the way, you look very kind-hearted, so who is Xie Guang'an?"

"Ah, this is exactly the name of the great-grandfather of the family. Where do you know?" The young man was shocked.

Fang Chang looked at the flat and straight loess official road in front and told the young man: "Although meeting is fate, since you are his descendants, we have other connections. This is fate plus fate... The road ahead is still far, why not walk together?"

The young man was confused and agreed. After these brief sentences, he had confirmed that Fang Chang was no longer in danger to the horse team. In this case, following the horse team was not a big deal. Moreover, he was very curious about how Fang Chang said his great-grandfather's name."

So he made a "peaceful" gesture at the others in the horse team, allowing the people around him to relax their tense spirits and walked forward with Fang Chang.

The two chatted for more than ten miles, and Fang Chang already knew most of the situation of the people opposite him.

The young man's name is Xie Yushan. He no longer lives in Huaifeng Mansion. However, he still has the habit of buying a few kilograms of Huaifeng Mansion pears during the season. Xie Guang'an has passed away for more than a hundred years, and his descendants have gone around in circles. Finally, Xie Yushan has joined the horse team again and continues to run around the city to deliver goods and letters to others.

Fang Chang did not report his name, and when he was having a happy chat, Xie Yushan forgot to ask these questions.

"You are working in this horse team, how is the harvest?" Fang Chang kept walking under his feet and asked Xie Yushan curiously.

"It's pretty good, better than finding other jobs near home." Xie Yushan replied, "I'm more dragging in school, and I'm not doing good at literacy and arithmetic. If I look for corresponding jobs, I will definitely be hungry. Other businesses such as waiters, porters, and laborers are not as good as those in this horse team every month."

"And the horse team can not only pay wages, but there are two pack horses in it, mainly to bring everyone's salutes, but how expensive can the luggage of a few people be? So many spaces were left out and everyone brought something to sell, which was an open benefit."

The official road was well repaired, and the horses were walking very smoothly on the road. Xie Yushan told Fang Chang that the horse team had taken the Gobi Road before, and now they were planning to return to the Central Plains to operate. This trip was to explore the way. If this trip could be made, they would transfer all their business, acquire large trucks, and change the horse team into a team.

After all, on the flat official road, horse-drawn carriages can carry more goods than pack horses, but the cost does not increase much. I hope that the increase in quantity can smooth out the profit gap. After all, when the horse team is walking in the Gobi Desert, there are still too many unknown risks, and the cold nature is always worthy of human awe.

Soon the horse team slowed down.

"What's going on in front?" Xie Yushan asked, then asked the people around him to continue line up. The other party complained and went forward to check the situation. There was a long river in front, and the shadow of the bridge could be seen from afar. The cars and horses on the official road were crowded in a closer position.

It took a long time before Xie Yushan came back.

He said to the people around him: "But something new has emerged. The bridge deck was originally wide enough for cars and horses to walk, but the official road was paved next to it, and a new road was being paved. At present, a lot of gravel was being used. It is said that a long railway from west to east was built with wood and iron. I don't know what the number of roads it is."

So everyone had to take a photo. After a long time, the team loosened and then the congestion began to ease.

When the horse team passed by, Fang Chang saw a long groove on the surface of the official road, with gravel laid on it, making it a roadbed. One end extends from a distance to the horizon, and many figures were busy there, as if they were about to lay the railway tracks. On the other end, just crossing the official road and moving not far away, there were hundreds of people rectifying the gravel.

There were well-informed people around him talking about this. Although Xie Yushan and others couldn't hear it, Fang Chang could do it.

"...The square public machine was installed on the wheels in the capital and paved a railway around the city to try to run it, but it was found that it was extremely convenient. According to my friend, the cars running on the railway tracks in the future were all day and night, only eating coal and drinking water, running fast and saving money, and their transportation capacity was comparable to a big river, so they had to continue paving the road..."
