ps: The unit’s network is broken! There is no way, I can only go back home and pass it! Sorry, it’s too late today!

In mid-November, the triangular line between Xingchenling and Hongyuan City was laid, and a simple train platform was also completed.

After the locomotive was transferred by Xingchen, everyone got together and discussed it for a long time to name the first steam locomotive and finally named it Xingchen.

Jiang Xingchen waved his hands repeatedly and said that it was all the credit of Xian Ning and the researchers. The old man looked unhappy and cursed in his heart: "Pretend, you guys continue to pretend! I don't know how beautiful it is!"

When the train returned, there were people outside the guardrails on one side of the railway. During this period, the villagers were guarding here every day just to see the train. A few days ago, the reputation of the monster was so amazing that there was nothing uncurious about it.

When the train rushed past their eyes, more than half of the villagers were stunned and they started to talk a lot later.

"I'm just like the legend! It's so big, like a hill!"

"So quickly, it passed in the blink of an eye."

"I can't blame everyone for calling monsters. There is smoke coming from the top of my head and it makes a sound of trousers rubbing. It's like a monster running wildly!"

"No wonder the lord didn't let him climb over the guardrail and said that it was dangerous inside... It was really dangerous enough. If you were accidentally touched, you would be dead..."

Those villagers who had seen the train had long been so surprised when they saw the others, they couldn't help but say proudly: "How about it, I didn't lie to you, are you?"

"No cheating, no cheating!" The villagers waved their hands repeatedly and said, "It's really the same as you said!"

Just as the surprise and shocking eyes of the villages and towns along the way, the train drove back to Hongyuan City. After turning around again, he slowly entered the steel factory backwards.

The civilians in Hongyuan City did not sleep in the wilderness every day like the villagers below, waiting for the train to appear. But even so, many people still saw the train. This also caused the steel plant to be surrounded by people waiting to see the train the next day. The lord of Hongyuan City was so scared that he hurriedly sent a large number of security team members and forcibly persuaded the civilians to go back.

The Lord of Hongyuan City is now both excited and nervous. It is definitely a great thing for him to build a train to Hongyuan City. As the first territory to open a train, Hongyuan City is also well-known all over the world. With convenient transportation, it is closer to the Xingchen Collar, and its development will get better and better in the future. Of course, he is very excited.

But there are too many big shots in the past two days, so he has to be more cautious. Even the emperor will come here in person. In case of any accident, no matter how many lives he has, he will not be able to pay.

Therefore, he was so nervous when a large number of civilians surrounded the steel mill, afraid that something would happen!

Jiang Xingchen was in the steel factory and ignored what was outside. Ten train cars have been basically completed and he needs to do the final inspection...

On November 19th, Emperor Qiankun and Marshal arrived and moved into the Lord's Mansion in Hongyuan City, Wang Shuangyang and other great dukes, as well as Wu Tianfeng, Wei Ning, Chen Xuangan, and Dingbei Hou were all here to accompany him.

Jiang Xingchen, who received the news, naturally rushed over immediately and paid homage to the emperor!

In the hall of the Lord's Mansion, the emperor looked at Jiang Xingchen with a smile and felt emotion. For eight years, he saw a little person with his own eyes, step by step to this day. This little person is only himself and has no family background. Thinking back, the emperor himself finds it incredible.

If I wanted to kill him, it would be similar to crushing an ant. But I had to use him to promote his policies and consolidate his regime. But when his regime was finally stable, the little man had already soared into the sky and could no longer control it.

"Oh!" The emperor sighed in his heart. In fact, he and Jiang Xingchen had never met several times over the years, but he felt like he had been dealing with him for a lifetime.

"Emperor, the train is ready and you can take it early tomorrow morning!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile.

"Okay!" The emperor smiled and nodded. Although he was very itchy and wanted to go and see the train now, he could not show it.

"Jiang Xingchen! The train is so fast that it can run 300 miles in less than two (months)?" the marshal asked.

"We've tested it, it's almost the same!" Jiang Xingchen replied. The steam locomotive had not reached its maximum speed at the end of October, and there was room for improvement.

"How much does it take to build this railway line and how long does it take?" The person who asked this time was the old marquis. They were all people who knew the railway plan very early.

"The railway line is not long, it only takes more than two months! Of course, this is also the reason why there is no obstacle from Hongyuan City to Xingchenling. If you encounter rivers, hills, or large terrain gaps, it will be troublesome... Is the cost? The railway is about five times that of the light rail road!"

"Hiss~" As soon as Jiang Xingchen finished speaking, the hall was filled with air conditioning, and even the Emperor was no exception.

The cost of a light rail road per meter is 800 yellow crystal coins. The cost of a railway per meter is five times higher than that of a light rail road. Wouldn't it be worth 4,000 yellow crystal coins per meter? Even if the 4,000 yellow crystal coins are piled up, it can be piled up by one meter. Isn't this just a money shop?

"So much?" The old marquis breathed out and looked at Jiang Xingchen in confusion.

Jiang Xingchen did not hide it, explaining: "The light rail is 24 kilograms per meter, and the heavy rail used in railways is 70 kilograms per meter, which is nearly three times the weight alone! Moreover, the rails are made of manganese steel, and a large amount of Yuan stone is used to extract metal manganese... The rails laid now use rigid, and the mass is much better than cold iron!"

"Also, once a long-distance railway line is built, it is common to build bridges, mountains and dig tunnels, and the project cost is not comparable to that of light rail!"

After a moment of saliva, Jiang Xingchen continued: "Actually, the price of five times is just a rough estimate, and it may actually be higher than this!"

After hearing this, the marshal's mouth twitched and his heart sweared: "This is too expensive!"

He also thought that the railway would be of great help to the military. But now it seems that he would not be able to take out the money even if he killed the emperor. It would cost almost 600 million yuan to reach the 300 miles from Hongyuan City to Xingchen. If several large legions were connected, they would not be able to get out without hundreds of billions.

The emperor also heard the heartbeat faster. He had a big goal in the railway plan. He was thinking about whether to build a one from Hongyuan City to the imperial capital first, but when he heard the price, more than 2 billion yuan might not be enough, and he muttered in his heart.

"Boy! Do you have to use the manganese steel you mentioned?" asked Dingbei Hou.

"Yes!" Everyone was moved when they heard this. They heard what Jiang Xingchen said just now. The reason why the railway is expensive is because the cost of railway tracks is that manganese steel is more expensive than cold iron.

Jiang Xingchen smiled bitterly: "I also want to use ordinary steel, but it's not possible! A locomotive alone has more than 200,000 kilograms. If you pull a million kilograms or even more goods, can ordinary steel rails bear it?"

"This..." Everyone was speechless, right? It weighed millions of pounds, so how could ordinary steel bear it!

"The steel made from Yuanshi. Brother, I want to curl your rails. Such good steel should be used as weapons!" Wu Tianfeng said.

"Yes, brother! Is there any surplus in your steel factory? Sell it to me!" Wei Ning also said.

"No!" Jiang Xingchen shook his head vigorously, why are you messing around with me? My manganese steel rail tracks are not enough.

"No, just produce some more. Anyway, you have just built a railway and will not be used for the time being!" Wu Tianfeng continued to instigate.

"Who said I won't use it for the time being! I'm going to build a railway from Hongyuan City to the imperial capital next step!" Jiang Xingchen said.

"What?" Everyone was stunned. The emperor was shocked. He wanted to build this railway just now. But it was a bit difficult to spend 2 billion at once. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xingchen actually wanted to build this railway.

Jiang Xingchen smiled slightly and said, "Emperor! This matter also requires the Empire to be responsible for coordinating and communicating. This line will be with three territories..."

Before Jiang Xingchen finished speaking, the emperor raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Let me think about this matter, let me talk to you in the second prince!"

Jiang Xingchen smiled and nodded: "Okay! Then I'll listen to the news from the second prince!"

In the hall, the old marquis narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Xingchen and sighed in his heart: "This kid is so smart..."

In the lord's mansion, when Jiang Xingchen, the Emperor, the Marshal and others were chatting and laughing, there were already crowds of people on the Hongyuan City Railway Station.

Just as Jiang Xingchen entered the Lord's Mansion, news suddenly came out that the train station started selling train tickets. You can take the train tomorrow morning train and go directly to Xingchen to collect!

"There's still something! You can take the train. Let's go to the train station to take a look!"

"Hurry up, don't buy it in a while!"

"This is the first group of people who take the train, so I have to go! I happened to be on a trip!"

Many people came to Hongyuan City just to see if the train looked like it. Is it really as exaggerated as Xingchen Monthly said. I didn’t expect that I could take it, and of course I wouldn’t miss this opportunity. If I took a train, I would be so envious of those waiting for the news when I went back.

Those who came over secretly and had other thoughts naturally decided to take the bus, which was much better than seeing it from the eyes.

In addition, the nobles and wealthy people in Hongyuan City have been staring at the train for a long time and have also gone to the train station.

There are also a large number of civilians who can't afford the ticket, but it's okay to have a look at the train. It's been so long that I haven't seen it before.

Soon, there was already a crowd in front of the railway station, and a long queue was instantly formed at four ticket gates outside the railway station.

"Ten yellow crystal coins for hard seats, twenty yellow crystal coins for hard seats, forty yellow crystal coins for soft seats!" The price is clearly written, and it is posted on the ticket window.

The owner who ran over to see the train from afar did not care about money. The soft bed with a 40-yuan yellow crystal coins was sold out in a blink of an eye.

Next is a hard sleeper and a hard seat! More than one thousand tickets were sold out in just one (month).
Chapter completed!
