Li Tang's envoy did not get the result they wanted in Li Lu, they only got a sentence as long as Li Xiaojiu did not make a mistake and was boring Li Lu would not bother to leave his verbal promise, although Lou Shide, who was a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, was extremely angry when they heard it, but even Zhang Zhizhi knew that his strength was far inferior to Li Lu's Daying, plus this was in someone's lair, so the three of them didn't dare to joke with their lives.

Sitting on the train back to the broken leaves, the three big figures of the Tang Dynasty, you look at me, I look at you, relatively speechless, after a long time, Wang Xiaojie, who is a military general, said, "I have to say that the knowledge of the British Domain's Gewu is really powerful, and in this way, tens of thousands of catties of iron cars can actually run on the rails...... Seeing the large number of passengers and the speed of this car, it is beneficial to think that it is beneficial to come here...... If Datang goes to Lingnan, he will also repair such a ......."

As soon as Wang Xiaojie finished speaking, he saw Zhang Jizhi's sudden change of color, Wang Xiaojie immediately remembered the appearance of this Zhang Jizhi when he saw the train for the first time, this Zhang Jizhi saw the train for the first time as fast as flying, plus the whistle roared, the black smoke rose, and the screaming monster was thousands of miles away, and there was a thick black smoke rising, Zhang Jizhi suddenly thought that he had seen the monster, if it wasn't for Lou Shi to stop him, Zhang Jizhi would have to make a joke.

Now Wang Xiaojie has proposed the benefits of railway trains, it seems that he wants Datang to learn to build railways and build trains, Zhang Zhizhi doesn't want to say, "This matter is also done by the British Fan Li thief, if the railway is repaired and the feng shui is broken, who can afford this responsibility between you, me and Lou Gong?" ”

That's right, in his opinion, trains need to lay tracks, open roads in the mountains, build bridges when encountering water, and change the pattern of mountains and rivers, which will cause a big disaster, and more importantly, he is hostile to everything in his heart to the British.

What Wang Xiaojie didn't expect was that Lou Shide also agreed with Zhang Zhizhi's statement, "The British respect the Taishang Daozun, and do not know the god of mountains and rivers. Blocked in the river and sea, then chiseled the bottom of the water and the huge iron in it, such as the shape of the rock as the iron bridge base site, and do not believe that there is a dragon king's palace, the house of the river bo......"

Lou Shide also thought that Li Lu did not agree with the theory of ghosts and gods, and his words were immediately agreed by Zhang Zhizhi, "What's more, I have no trains in the Tang Dynasty since ancient times....... if I build a train railway, it will definitely cost a lot of money, and the former Sui only built a Grand Canal and died........

"I'm strange, the former Sui died because of a canal, but how many railways have been built in Britain under the rule of King Li Lu, but why can't the British ......people be seen," Lou Shide also said with a smile.

"It's not surprising that the British clan started by plundering, and the gold he plundered is not a small number...... "Zhang Zhizhi said unceremoniously, "What's more, they don't build the country with benevolence and righteousness like us......"

"That's ........ too" Lou Shide also agreed with Zhang Zhizhi's words.

It is no wonder that Lou Shide and Zhang Zhizhi were frightened, because they were born in an agricultural country, and they have an instinctive rejection of modern civilization, and the emergence of new things is always subject to ups and downs, all kinds of absurdities, which are really laughable in the eyes of Li Lu and the British.

Several Tang envoys saw trains, ships, steam engines, microscopes, slide lanterns, large textile mills, and various heavy machinery factories in the British Empire, but unfortunately even Wang Xiaojie thought that it was just a British play that had been razed.

The only advanced thing that several of them brought to the Tang Dynasty was the punctuation marks they noticed, which were introduced to the Tang literati in his book, which was the beginning of the use of punctuation marks in the Tang Dynasty.

What impressed Lou Shide was the Broken Leaves of the Imperial Palace, where tall buildings and alleys were connected, much to the surprise of them and others, who had never seen such a bustling street market.

That night, Lou Shide and others were arranged to stay on the seventh floor of a hotel, up and down the animal power stairs, which made them greatly moved, and the "KitKat" of the British Empire really lived up to its name.

Upon arrival at Broken Leaves, the British government received them on a reciprocal basis. Lou Shide visited several places in a row with great interest. At the Broken Leaf Royal Photo Studio, he took the first photo of his life. To be wordy here, the guy who invented the camera in this time and space was a Frankish immigrant named Gaidar, who made the first practical daguerreotype camera in this space-time, which consisted of two wooden boxes, one wooden box was inserted into the other wooden box for focusing, and the lens cover was used as a shutter to control the exposure time of up to 30 minutes, which could shoot clear images.

What made Lou Shide and them most unforgettable was that they were invited to attend a palace banquet held by Li Lu for visitors from the Tang Dynasty.

The banquet was attended by a large number of British nobles, ministers, and ministers. Their wives and daughters, not to mention the few people, bare-shouldered and bare-backed at the banquet, were jeweled and brilliant. Li Lu's crown prince Li Dingguo personally met with Lou Shide and his party, and Lou Shide was very grateful. He said to Li Dingguo: "You can see the broken leaf building utensils, which are exquisitely made, even better than the Tang Dynasty." As for all political affairs, there are many benefits. And it is a blessing to be treated by the monarch and to be able to browse the beautiful scenery. ”

Lou Shide wrote a lot of things he personally encountered in his diary, such as when he mentioned the banquet, he described it like this:

"There are more than fifty or sixty actresses on stage, and half of them are beautiful, dancing with half of them naked. In the play, you can make mountains and waterfalls, the sun and the moon, see the Buddha statue, or dozens of goddesses descend from the sky. The auspicious light shines on people, wonderful and incredible. ”

"The ladies of the officials came after a long time, all of them in long dresses and dazzling jewelry, all of which were covered with arms and breasts. Luo Qi is covered, and it is suspected that he is also .......... in the Bei Que Zhu Palace."

But in all fairness, the British Empire's proudest technological civilization is not as blindly scolded in Lou Shide's article, he still recorded a lot of so-called "strange tricks" in his eyes, and when Lou Shide and the others first arrived at the broken leaves, there were records of steamship lifts and gas lamps, and the description of children's bicycles sold in the store in his article was the most interesting. ——— this kind of toy, which is no longer ordinary, has become a mysterious thing with Zhuge Liang's "Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse" under the pen of Lou Shide.

And Lou Shide's description of the train that he has taken many times in Daying is quite a sense of surprise for an old man from the countryside entering the city: "The houses, trees, hills, and Qianmo outside the car are all speeding by, and you can't force your eyes to look." However, after the sense of surprise, he strongly opposed the construction of a railway in the Central Plains, for the simple reason that he was a disciple of Confucianism, and he saw something from this railway that was not good for the great nobles and Confucianism.

After the trip, Lou Shide's thinking did not change much. When he was in England, the British prince Li Dingguo asked Lou Shide, "How is the scene of broken leaves and Tang Chang'an?" Lou Shide replied: "The old man is an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, and he has never had the experience of going to a foreign country. This time I was ordered to travel, and I knew that there was such a place overseas. ”

After listening to the old man's words, Li Dingguo couldn't help but pout, it turned out that the big people of the Tang Dynasty were a group of dirt buns........
