Chapter 162: Spirited Away

Early the next morning, Lin Ying got up early, and after having breakfast hastily, she made an appointment with Shalanova and Anastasia to text messages, called a car from Blackwater Security Company, and went out to play with Gu Kun together.

The cross-sea road bridge between the main island of Lan Pong and the satellite town of Kuching on the other side of the river, Smatan, has not yet been built, so it is not possible to drive directly across the sea.

However, the sea-crossing bridge has also been repaired for more than half of the time, and the seawall railway bridge on the lower level has been repaired and is currently in the stage of rolling rails. Although it has not been officially opened to traffic, there are special trains for engineering testing every day, and the track is tamped and fine-tuned (the newly repaired railway must be repeatedly tested with a rolling car to forcibly break the inaccurate track gauge)

The unit of the construction operation is China Railway/China State Construction, and Gu Kun pays for it, so his people can use it at any time if they want to. Lin Ying and his entourage called in advance to confirm what time the engineering train would depart that day, and then went to the train station to wait and let them cross the sea.

"This train station is quite magnificent, more magnificent than what I saw when I was studying in Hujiang. I haven't been back for a few months, and it's been a big change. ”

When the three girls arrived at the train station, there was still a little time before the departure of the engineering train, so they got on and off the train in the square in front of the station to breathe and take a leisurely stroll for sightseeing.

The main construction of this train station was completed last month, and the interior is still being renovated. The design standards required by Gu Kun are very high, so the front of the railway station has a large span and looks extremely magnificent.

At the end of the 90s, there was no high-speed rail in China, and the best railway station at that time was the Beijing West Railway Station and the old Hujiang South Station. It is actually not difficult to surpass the grandeur of those railway stations on the issue of infrastructure madness, and it is enough to spend a few hundred million yuan more.

Lanfang Station is a typical flower shelf, the front building is wide and magnificent, but the depth is actually only four entry lanes and three platforms, because the design of the flow of people and goods here is not large. It is completely incomparable with the scale of 20 railways in Beijing Station and Hujiang Station.

Lin Ying and others because this year is the graduation season, so they left Lanfang to go to China from the beginning of May, and finally tossed for two or three months from the defense to the formalities to graduate and get the degree certificate, and recently returned to Lanfang, so they are a little curious about these new construction projects.

It's not just Lin Ying and others who are curious, because today is a Saturday, there are more people on holiday, and there are at least thousands of people watching and joining in the fun at a cursory glance on the square in front of the station.

Lanfang's broken island actually has a train station, which is really an amazing thing.

In the eyes of people in China, trains are not a problem at all, but if they are Malaysians, especially East Malaysian residents, they will definitely feel rare.

Because before that, not only did there be no railway in Lan, but even the whole of East Malaysia, that is, Sarawak and Sabah, did not have a systematic civil railway network, and there were only a very few mining railways that did not have a network.

In the whole country of Malaysia, only West Malaysia, that is, the part of the Malay Peninsula, has a civil railway network that connects the capital Kuala Lumpur to Johor Bahru, and connects to Lee Kapo through the Straits of Johor.

Penang, the northernmost of the three major cities in the Malay Peninsula, is not connected to the neighbouring country of Thailand by rail.

It was not until the 2010s that the Chinese side frantically exported and promoted high-speed rail to Southeast Asia, and the Malays expressed their willingness to join the high-speed rail plan throughout the Malay Peninsula, that is, from Lee Kapo/Johor Bahru Bahru.asxs., through the capital Kuala Lumpur, further north to Penang, and finally from Penang all the way along the narrow peninsula to Phuket-Pattaya-Bangkok in Thailand.

It can be seen from this that Gu Kun has achieved a breakthrough in the civil railway network between East Malaysia and Lanfang in the era when Penang in West Malaysia has not yet been connected to the railway, which has brought a great shock to the locals.

Not to mention in Lanfang, even in Kuching on the other side, there are many people who set up tablets to worship Gu Kun when he was still alive, and sent to build a shrine.

(Note: In history, the Lisheng Ancestral Hall did not start with Wei Zhongxian, and the Han and Tang Kai had civil officials before the Lisheng Ancestral Hall.) Wei Zhongxian was only written because he was the first eunuch to establish an ancestral hall. So even if someone gives Gu Kun an ancestral hall, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, it is an analogy with the ancestral hall of those heroes of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

"Tang Law Shu Yi" has 'all the officials and officials who have no political deeds and erect monuments and shrines, one year in prison'. That is to say, the law of the Tang Dynasty clearly stipulates that only those who have no political achievements will be sentenced to one year in prison if they erect a monument and an ancestral hall, and they can legally set up a monument if they have political achievements. )

This is a great benevolent person who has benefited the 6 million people of East Malaysia and all 20 million people of Borneo. Or the money invested when the financial crisis broke out the year before last when it was the most severe and the people's livelihood was the most difficult, what a righteous act of destroying the family and relieving the need.

"It's really magnificent, I didn't expect that we Lanfang people would also use such modern facilities one day. ”

"It's so much harder to have a train station than an airport. The airport only needs a handful of wealthy people to play, and the train station has to have at least hundreds of thousands of people to play. ”

"Who says it's not, no matter how poor the place, a few only men have money, they can build an airstrip, and the railway is to drive the poor along the line, I heard that there are a lot more people on the other side of the bank to invest and set up factories this year, all of which are good for Gu Ye." ”

The ordinary people of Lanfang in the square, while watching, could not help but sing praises to each other, and Lin Ying and the others were very comfortable listening to these words, and they felt a sense of pride and honor.

......

Soon it was time for the daily engineering train to depart, Lin Ying and the others got on the train again, and the driver sent by the security company also drove directly into the waiting platform through the insider's underground passage, and then drove directly onto a wagon car towed by the train.

Lin Ying and the others got on and off the train, went to sit in a VIP passenger car in front of them, and enjoyed the upcoming journey. The engineering train will also tow a passenger car every day in case of emergency, to cope with the inspection of leaders and customers that may come at any time. However, there are no customers and friends today, which is equivalent to a special train for Lin Ying and a few others.

Because there are beautiful tourists, the train is also faster than usual, about 50 kilometers per hour - after the official opening of this railway in the future, the speed limit of each section is between 80 and 120 kilometers, but the cars of the engineering rolling track are relatively slow, usually only more than 30 kilometers, because it is necessary to take into account that the track gauge is not very standard, and the train needs to be forcibly twisted to break in the error, and it is not safe to drive too fast, and the construction effect cannot be achieved.

The car drove only five kilometers away, and it had already driven out of the main island of Lanfang and into the sea.

Lin Ying looked at the magical scene in front of her, which was really a little unreal.

"Isn't this the same as the sea train written in the script of "Spirited Away", you can't see the land before and after, just a train on the sea, it's too romantic, and it will definitely become an Internet celebrity attraction in the future. ”
