One of the great disadvantages of the car-pulling dragons compared to the locomotive is that they get tired too easily, and although they drink some "energy drinks" and eat some "energy food" when they stop at each station, the flesh and blood still have to rest after all.

After eight hours of running, the train was replaced in a larger city with a new batch of Earthwalkers and Beast Tamers, who then pulled the train on.

Those who have been looking for a long time will eat and drink well in the breeding farm here, do a simple physical examination, and then sleep for the night, and then pull another train back to Reed City. For every four days they pull, they have one day off.

Not long after he hit the road again, Charles met the conductor who had come to report the day's itinerary to Elizabeth, who was working on the papers, and asked him about the railroad while he was free.

The large-scale construction of railways by the elves began three hundred years ago, and after more than two hundred years of development, a railway network of "three horizontal and five vertical" was finally built.

It is for the sake of this railway network that the elves do everything to make money, for example, the high profits of cosmetics and healing potions exported by the elves are almost all invested in the construction and maintenance of the railway network.

While building the railway network, the elves devoured a vast amount of steel production capacity on the continent.

At the same time, the elves also took advantage of the opportunity of building a railway network to complete the rapid upgrading of metallurgy, machinery manufacturing, communications and construction industries.

Supporting the railway network is the construction of a national road network with railways as the backbone, stations as nodes, two-lane roads as branch lines, and roads built according to local conditions as the end.

After the completion of this national road network system, any part of the elven territory will have any railway pass through within a radius of 150 kilometers.

After completing the construction of the railway network in the Elven Tree Sea, the Elf Railway Construction Corporation began a larger project, and they contracted the construction of the railway network of the Rurik Kingdom in the west, which has not yet been completed.

After Charles listened to the conductor's story, the sweat on his head came out.

He didn't expect the elves to be so terrifying, it seems that this "village pass" is going to be made.

The conductor sat for a while and gave a general account of the history of the development of the railway, and then left, and when dinner time came, he had to deal with the matter.

When taking a long-distance bus, many people are full of excitement when they first get on the bus, and they can't stop chatting and talking. But when the car has been on for a while, most of the passengers lose their energy.

Now Mira and Mordred had run to the vacant seats next to them and lay asleep, only Diana sat opposite Charles, her head next to the window and looking out, not knowing whether she was in a daze or thinking something.

Charles also leaned against the window, looking out the window at the sunset at the farmer who was returning home from the harvested rice field to take care of the winter soybeans, the peasant woman walking into the village with a watering spoon next to the vegetable field that was still green in winter, the young man in the orchard pruning the branches of the fruit trees while the last bit of sunshine, and the children who followed the parents with their staff who had just finished repairing the canal with their baskets...... Although it is already winter and the end of the year is approaching, everything in this land is still so vibrant.

In this tropical area, it's lush even in winter.

At this time, Charles's heart had overturned the table.

What about the elves who love nature, fresh and elegant, why did they suddenly jump on the road of infrastructure madness?

Although they all have long ears, your ears are horizontally, not vertically!

Just when he was complaining in his heart, the conductor brought dinner.

A large bowl of rice is topped with a piece of fat and thin pork, and the fragrant soup is poured on the pork and then seeps into the rice. Next to the button meat, there is some shredded sauerkraut. Along with the button pork rice, there was also a bowl of egg drop soup.

Originally, there was still a braised egg in someone's bowl, but now it was in Mordred's bowl, and then half of the braised egg from Mira's bowl appeared in the bowl.

The soup and rice brought here from the front kitchen through the front carriages made Charles see a lot of things.

The bottom of the train car is not directly loaded with wheels under the bottom of the car as many people imagine, but the body of the car is located on the bogie.

Now a bowl of egg drop soup is placed on the small table in front of someone, and the water surface shakes slightly but does not spill out, indicating that the bogie at the bottom of the carriage has a good level, which greatly increases the stability and comfort of the carriage.

This also shows from the side that the elves have a high level in the manufacture of bearings, springs, etc.

It can be deduced that the level of materials, machining, and design in the elves will not be low.

Charles felt that this was the elf's way to avoid the locked powertrain upgrade route, and find another way to improve his skill level from other aspects.

Although the efficiency of the car is too low compared to the front of the machine, the money earned is not enough for daily maintenance.

But from another point of view, the railway network facilitates the logistics and transportation between the elven territories, which will inevitably play a role in promoting economic development.

Charles suddenly thought of his mysterious ancestor, maybe this was the game he laid down back then?

If he had foreseen that someone would break through the limitations of the power system in the future, then when that day came, the elves who happened to be the locomotives such as the railroad would have an advantage in the field of railways that would make humanity desperate.

Just imagine, a group of elves who have built railways from scratch for two or three hundred years, a group of engineering and management talents with two or three hundred years of work experience, and a group of professionals with two or three hundred years of train operation experience...... In front of these epic professionals, what do humans compare to them?

Then he thought about the wind turbine he had made in Abyss City a while ago, when he heard someone talking about the railroad.

"Play big!" thought Charles.

He didn't dare to underestimate the elves and demons with a four-digit history of unification, after breaking through the shackles of the power system, who knew what unscientific but very magical technical reserves they would come up with, and then "duang" to get the train out.

Finally, he thought of the descendants of the traversers who invented paper and later disappeared into history, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his head, wondering if he would repeat their mistakes.

However, Reimu doesn't look like he's going to kill herself, and she gives herself a big gift bag before going out, and it seems that the gods don't care about it?

Charles didn't know that he was standing there motionless with his fork on his fork, and was now being watched.
