Chapter 207: Train Trial

"Is it already done?" The Dragon King was a little surprised, he didn't expect to hear such good news as soon as he returned to Qingping.

Quan Gang was also very happy to be able to complete the task assigned by the Dragon King excellently, and in addition, he also gave Ma Jun and Mo Liang a tribute: "Yes, Dragon King, last time because I heard the Dragon King talk about the railroad track, Ma Jun and Mo Liang checked the ancient books and found some information about the Qianqin rail car, so they were able to lay the track in just three months." ”

"I see."

The descendants of Yan and Huang are really powerful, in the Qin Dynasty, there were already rail cars, this kind of rail cars are specially used to make carriages run, can run six or seven hundred miles a day, not to mention in the Qin Dynasty, even if it is more than a thousand years apart, it is also the most advanced technology in the world.

Therefore, it is not without reason that there are so many Qin Blows in later generations, Qin Shi Huang is known as the first emperor of the ages, and he is indeed worthy of his name, and he is quite capable.

"Let's go, go and see the tracks laid." The Dragon King suddenly left everything else behind.

The track is in the north gate of Qingping County, where a special building was built, that is, the railway station, but now the railway station is extremely simple, that is, a few sheds are erected there, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it's simple or not, and the Dragon King is not here to see the train station.

When he came to the train station, the dragon king saw the straight track, which stretched forward as if it were endless.

Of course, the material used for these tracks is not railroad rails, and there is not so much iron in Nanhai County, in fact, these tracks are all made of wood, but don't look at the wood, it is easy to break, these woods have been treated by the ink workers to be anti-corrosion, and it is inky black, not only extremely hard, but can be stored for many years.

Similar to modern rails, every three zhang, there are sleepers under the wooden rails, these sleepers are used to reduce the pressure of the wooden rails, the sleepers are relatively soft, and can effectively absorb shocks.

A steam train was parked on wooden tracks, and now no one is going to drive it.

This first steam fire is not an automatic door, but needs to be manually pushed open, and there is no glass on the window, just nailed with a cloth, leaving a little gap, it looks weird, but it's good to do, and the dragon king doesn't care about the appearance.

"You've already tried it, haven't you?" The Dragon King asked.

"Yes, I've tried it several times and it works smoothly." Quan Gang said in a deep voice.

"Mo Liang and Ma Jun have really done a great thing, these two are good." The dragon king did not hesitate to compliment.

"It's all thanks to you, the Dragon King, now these two people have the ability to remember, any book can be remembered at a glance, if not, maybe it will take a long time to complete this track."

"Haha." Quan Gang's sycophant kung fu rose, and the dragon king was very comfortable: "After the year, forget it, it's still fifteen, after the fifteenth day of the first month, the train will be put into trial operation, and in the future, Nanhai County and Cangwu County, tracks, cement roads, will be paved, in addition, a factory specializing in the production of trains must be established." ”

The Dragon King is so happy, with the train, the traffic and transportation capacity under his rule have suddenly increased countless grades, and the speed of development will of course be faster.

The dragon king seems to see that under his rule, trains and cars have become popular, running all over the streets, it is difficult to find a parking space, and other places are still using horse-drawn carriages...

In the imagination of the dragon king, the New Year has arrived.

This year is the same as last year, one to thirty, the knowledge is crowded with people, these are to pay New Year's greetings to the Dragon King, now in Qingping County, the New Year does not seem to be called the New Year if you don't pay a New Year's greeting to the Dragon King.

This year, Tie Yong's family also came to Qingping County, and also celebrated the New Year with the Dragon King, plus another Quan Gang.

The New Year's greetings continued until the eighth day of the first lunar month.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the atmosphere of the New Year dissipated, and early in the morning, countless people who had already learned the news came to the train station, because the train began to run on a trial basis today.

"Is this a train? It looks so big. ”

"Much more than a jet car."

"It's all cast in iron, I'm afraid it won't be tens of thousands of catties? It's amazing that you can run so heavy and still be able to run. ”

"Not only can I run, but the speed is quite fast, I have tried to run several times, and it is said that I can run one or two hundred miles in an hour."

"One or two hundred miles, my Dragon King Master, doesn't that mean that it won't take an hour from our Qingping to Mingfeng?"

"Isn't this nonsense?"

"No wonder the Dragon King said that Mo Liang and Ma both have great merits."

"The Dragon King is here."

"I've seen the Dragon King, long live the Dragon King."

The dragon king was in a good mood, signaling that everyone didn't have to be polite, and then he didn't talk nonsense, and directly announced the start of the trial operation of the train.

Three drivers in identical costumes pulled open the front door and slipped inside.

"Oh, I remember that driver, it seems to be called Ba Xiong, right? Formerly a jet truck driver? The Dragon King asked Quan Gang.

Quan Gang smiled: "Yes, Dragon King, Ba Xiong has always been diligent in his work, he has been driving for more than a year, and he has not had an accident, this train driver training, Ba Xiong's results are also the best, let him drive the train, the Dragon King can rest assured." ”

The Dragon King nodded, an ordinary person like Ba Xiong is usually not inconspicuous at all, but in the entire social structure, such ordinary people are the most.

The three of them got into the car and lit the steam boiler on the car, and the smoke billowing from the locomotive was billowing from the locomotive, and the dragon king couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw this scene, because this scene often appeared in that kind of old film movies.

"It's a bit polluted, but fortunately, the steam engine is just a transition, and I have a system, the earth is not the end, there are countless planets in the universe, don't be afraid of any pollution."

Since it is a trial operation, there must be passengers, the train now has a total of four carriages, each carriage can carry twenty or thirty people, if it is hard to stop, four carriages carrying one hundred and fifty people is no problem, such as this trial operation, the four carriages are all full, people are too curious about this new means of transportation, and can't wait to experience it firsthand.

In the long whistle of the dragon king, the train started slowly, slowly accelerated, and many people ran with the train screaming, but were thrown off by the train, and finally disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Almost an hour later, the train arrived at the Mingfeng County Railway Station, stopped at the Mingfeng County Railway Station for a while, and began to return to Qingping County smoothly.

Mo Liang and Ma Jun got on the train and inspected the train, and finally reported to the Dragon King: the train is all right.

Although the Dragon King has boasted in the Dawei Dragon King newspaper that this is an epoch-making invention, the people of this era still do not deeply realize that the steam age has come, nor do they realize how great the extensive use of the steam engine will bring to the whole society.
