"It's okay to study more stance technology, and more locomotives will be produced in the future, and you are the drivers of this train......!"

Zhao Yin paused for a moment, and then continued: "By the way, in the future, we have to let Hou Qingli open another driver training class, you can go there to teach and train more drivers!" ”

This locomotive is just the beginning, and there will be more trains to come, so just a few drivers are definitely not enough!

"Thank you, Master Pony!"

When they heard that they were going to be able to become drivers and that they would be able to teach at a technical school, they were all excited.

This is not only the trust of the colt, but also a promotion!

As long as they can teach, the level of craftsmen will be improved, which is not only directly related to their salary, but also related to their rank!

"Test the locomotive several times without making a mistake, and then build a few more carriages and fill them with goods!"

Zhao Yin continued to admonish.

"Yes!"

Lin Wu gave up his hand.

"It's time to report this to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Yin said with a smile.

The old man had urged himself several times, and had taken out a lot of silver, and if he had good news, he would be unhappy again.

Besides, once the train is put into operation, Li Er will have to make an order to expropriate the land, so he must be allowed to see the train with his own eyes.

However, as soon as he decided to send someone to inform Li Er, he suddenly thought of something and was immediately dumbfounded!

He built only ten kilometers of railroad tracks for the experiment, and it was one-way.

And there is only one locomotive, which means that once the train reaches this end, there is no way back.

Because, the train is not in reverse gear at all!

It's just too bad!

"Ahem......! We've got to pull the train back! ”

Zhao Yin coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, and said to the craftsmen and guards behind him: "I have to invite Your Majesty to come over and watch later, and when the time comes, this horse will also ask for credit for you!" ”

"What? ...... this train needs to be pulled back? ”

"If the train can't turn around, it's better than the horses!"

"When the time comes, will we have to build a circular track and let the train go around in a circle?"

Hearing this, the craftsmen were dumbfounded and couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"No, we're just experimenting this time, and when the train is actually put into use, we need to install a locomotive at the beginning and end, that is, it can be started before and after!"

Zhao Yin patiently explained to everyone.

"Oh......! It turns out that this is the case, or the horse master is thoughtful! ”

After listening to Zhao Yin's words, the craftsmen immediately admired it even more.

In order to allow His Majesty to come and watch, the craftsmen could only find ropes, tie the locomotive with flowers, and then pull it back by hundreds of horses.

However, fortunately, the locomotive is on top of the rails, which reduces a lot of friction, so it can barely be pulled.

Watching the craftsmen slowly pull the train, Zhao Yin couldn't help but hold his forehead in embarrassment.

When the rails were built, he really didn't expect the train to be in reverse gear!

……

"Report ......!"

In the Taiji Palace, Li Er was in the early court, and a Qianniu guard suddenly entered the hall to play.

"What's wrong?"

Li Er asked suspiciously.

"Wannian County Order reported that the horse led the troops to chase a giant beast, and then subdued it, and was tied up with a rope and pulled back!"

Qianniuwei gave up.

"Behemoth......?"

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned, as if he was a little suspicious, "In the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, how could a giant beast appear?" ”

"Let's go, let's see ......!"

Li Er threw away the fold in his hand, got up and left, "Wang De, call two thousand thousand Niu Wei again, and go with you!" ”

Although this matter is a bit incredible, the Wannian County Order will never dare to bully the king, so if something happens, Li Er called two thousand thousand Niu Wei!

After more than an hour, the craftsmen finally pulled the locomotive back to its original position, and at the same time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and all raised their hands and cheered, as if they had won the battle.

But the horses were tired, and their hair was already wet with sweat!

"Master Pony, but do you want to try again?"

Lin Wu asked.

At the same time, the craftsmen in the cab just now also looked at Zhao Yin with a look on their faces, hoping to try this novel thing again!

"Let's wait for His Majesty to come and try again!"

Zhao Yin shook his head decisively.

It's too hard to pull this locomotive back, so let's wait until Li Er shows it to them, and then toss it with them!

But just as he was about to send someone to inform Li Er, he found that a large amount of dust was rolling up in the distance, and at the same time, the sound of thousands of horses galloping was heard.

"What's going on?"

The craftsmen looked into the distance in confusion.

"Be careful, everyone, there's a large number of men rushing towards us......!"

Xue Rengui listened vigilantly, and then analyzed: "There are about two thousand horses!" ”

"Don't be so nervous, this is the edge of Chang'an City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is only the emperor who can mobilize so many cavalry at one time!"

Zhao Yin explained lightly.

"It's Qianniuwei!"

As the soldiers and horses in the distance got closer and closer, some sharp-eyed people recognized the clothes of the guards and shouted loudly.

"It seems that there is still His Majesty and the ministers!"

Xue Rengui squinted his eyes and recognized the person who took the lead.

"See Your Majesty!"

When the cavalry rushed to the front and back, Li Er turned over and dismounted, and Zhao Yin led everyone to salute.

"Excuse me!"

Li Er waved at everyone, but his eyes fell on the locomotive.

"Why did Your Majesty come here?"

Zhao Yin was very puzzled.

He was just about to send someone to inform Li Er, but he actually went straight to here, could it be that someone went to report the news quickly?

"The Wannian County Commander sent someone to report that you had captured a giant beast, and I was afraid that you would not be able to deal with it, so I led troops to assist ......!"

Li Er asked nervously, "Is that big guy a giant beast?" ”

"What behemoth? It's a locomotive developed by my son-in-law! ”

Zhao Yin was stunned for a moment, and then explained.

"But the soldiers who came to report said that you led your guards and chased a whining giant beast for several miles, and finally subdued it and dragged it away on horseback!"

Li Er was a little incredulous and emphasized again.

"Your Majesty, this locomotive in front of you is a steam locomotive, and it does make a sound during operation, and we were just testing it, so we followed on horseback!"

Zhao Yin continued to explain, but completely avoided pulling it back with a horse.

Because, it's too embarrassing.

"Oh! So that's it! ”

Li Er suddenly realized.

But the eldest grandson Wuji behind him didn't understand what was going on with this train at all.

"What do you mean, this train has been developed?"

Li Er walked to the locomotive with great interest and looked at it carefully.

"That's right, we've already tried the car just now, and it's exactly what we expected!"

Zhao Yin introduced it with a slight expression.
