Chapter 263: Resumption of Social Questioning (I)

Su Baiyi took a general look, there are not as many people today as there were yesterday!

Yesterday there were about 200 people, but today it looks like there are only about 100 people.

A hundred people ran in one day!

It seems that many people were disappointed with the first auction, so they didn't bother to come today.

Fortunately, the well-known ones, the most promising ones are all there, and they are not absent.

After all, it took a lot of time to come, and many people know that there is a different visit today, so they come with the intention of playing, and take a look!

"Please come in!"

Su Baiyi invited everyone into an auction hall with the same regulations as yesterday.

But when I arrived at the auction hall, I realized that this venue was only exactly the same as yesterday on the outside, and there was no resemblance to the contents inside.

There are no chairs in the middle of this hall, no tables and stools!

There are only huge display panels connected together, forming a corridor in the shape of "Hui", along the top of the corridor is a row of lights, and on the walls on both sides of the hollow-shaped passage, there are various train photos, introductions, texts, etc.!

"Huh?"

When everyone saw such a display and visit, they were all immediately interested, and one by one they looked at the illuminated wall display board with wide eyes of curiosity.

"This is ......" A person who had seen Su Baiyi in Beijing was shocked: "This is Mr. Su's masterpiece, no, no, no, it is a painting by Lord Su, and this kind of painting can only be made by Lord Su in the entire Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes, really, this is Lord Su's real work, real work!" A calligraphy and painting enthusiast couldn't even hold back the excitement in his heart, and shouted at Su Baiyi: "Master Su, it would be good if these paintings were auctioned, and the old man offered a price higher than the shares!" ”

Many people were amazed, and one by one they stared at the paintings with wide eyes, and were immediately attracted by the things on it.

"It's too similar!" Someone said: "This is a mountain, my God, it is exactly the same as a real mountain, how did Master Su draw it, and this person, my God, this woman is so beautiful, you look at her face, you look at this figure, it is really indescribable?" Master Su, is this woman from the Nanjing Teaching Division? ”

"This is not from the Nanjing Teaching Workshop Division, they are from a good family in Qingdao, Shandong!" Su Baiyi raised his hand with a smile: "Okay guys, don't make fun of me." First, the paintings were painted for the purpose of this exhibition, and after the exhibition, they will be kept at the Railway Memorial Hall, and the official will not sell them. Second, don't look around, in order to let you really understand the railway, know the railway, this official will take you and slowly introduce you to you! ”

The corridor is very large, and more than a hundred people follow Su Baiyi and look a little crowded, but Su Baiyi has a microphone in his hand, and every photo and text in front of him is posted on the wall, the super-large version, which is more than three meters high, and it will not be invisible. So everyone looked at Su Baiyi intently.

"Ahem!" Su Baiyi took the microphone, coughed lightly twice, and said, "Please look at my left hand, yes, yes, this is the picture." Not many people paid attention to it just now, this picture is a map of the layout of the entire Longhai Railway, look here! Su Baiyi had a slender stick in his hand, pointed to the map and said: "This is the starting point of our railway, located in the east sea mouth of Huai'an Prefecture, Nanzhili, and also the starting point of our entire railway; Starting from the east to the west, first of all, Donghai County, Huai'an Prefecture, and then Xuzhou Prefecture, the railway continues to the west through Xiao (Xiao County), Dang (Dangshan), and then enters the boundary of our Guide Mansion, from Yongcheng and Xiayi only to Virtue Mansion; From Guide Mansion to the west is Kaifeng Mansion, Zheng County (Zhengzhou), Luoyang, and then to the west is Lingbao, Tongguan, and then to Xi'an Mansion. The overall length of the whole line is 2,000 miles. ”

After reading the drawings that Su Baiyi got over, all the people had a general impression of the railway, at least knowing where the railway that was about to start construction would go, and whether they had their own hometown?

"Okay, many people ask this official, what is the railway? What does it look like? Don't worry, you'll see you soon! Su Baiyi shook the slender stick in his hand and put it on the second photo on the left: "Everyone, please look, this is the railway you have been thinking about for a long time." ”

Below, Chen Zhenhui muttered: "Who thinks about it?" ”

Su Baiyi didn't hear it, and pointed to the second picture with a stick and said: "Look, this is the railway, it's very clear, the two rails above are made of 100 steel, and they are not contradictory; Underneath the rails are rows of horizontal sleepers, which, of course, can also be replaced by other materials, I won't say much here. Look here, there's gravel underneath the sleepers, yes, it's that simple, it's a single-track railway!

And the Longhai Railway we built, it is not a single line, but a double line, that is, there are two such double-row rails, one from east to west, and one from west to east! ”

"Oh, so this is the railroad!"

"No wonder it's called a railway, according to what Master Su said, this requires four railroad tracks, from Xi'an Mansion to Huai'an Mansion, a full two thousand miles, where to get so much iron?"

"This road doesn't look smooth at all, it's either rails or sleepers, and there are so many gravels, how can the carriage run!"

"You're stupid, haven't you heard that it's not a horse-drawn carriage running on the railway, it's a train!"

"Train!"

"Yes, it's the train!" Su Baiyi said with a smile: "I know you have questions, okay, now go back to this painting of a good family in Qingdao, Shandong!" ”

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on that picture again.

"Now let's see if the railroad below is out of chaos!" Su Baiyi knocked on the drawing board: "Of course the train and the carriage are different, the carriage is two wheels, and the train is two rows of wheels. Look closely, this is the train, here are the wheels of the train, see no, when the train is walking, the two rows of wheels are impartial and just stuck on the two rails, and no matter where the width between the two rails is always the same, so the train can only walk along this track, you think, understand? ”

Everyone looked at the picture and imagined at the same time.

After a while, someone finally understood how the train runs, and said excitedly: "I understand, I understand, that is, the two rows of wheels of the train are stuck on the tracks, and they are not allowed to derail!" ”

"Yes, that's it, I also thought of it, if you don't let you cheat, you can run all the way to Xi'an Mansion!"

"Good, very good!" Su Baiyi gave a thumbs up: "Brother, the word cheating is used well!" Okay, now that you've basically understood, I won't say more, so I'll talk about ......."

"The student has a word, but I don't know whether to say it or not?" Before Su Baiyi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a crisp voice.

Su Baiyi turned his head very unhappily, and when he saw the person who interrupted him, his pupils shrank and his eyes narrowed slightly.

It's finally here!

From the first auction to the present, Mao Bijiang and Chen Zhenhui have been forbearing, and now they are finally going to make trouble?

It was Mao Bijiang who spoke, he looked extremely calm in his thirties, his eyes flashed with disdain, and he arched his hands to look at Su Baiyi, waiting for him to answer.

"Oh?" Su Baiyi said very generously: "It's Xiao Mao, Xiao Mao, please tell me if you have any questions!" ”

"I ......" Mao Bijiang heard Su Baiyi call him a little risk, and almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood. But thinking that Su Baiyi's status is indeed much more noble than him now, and there are big things to do arranged by his teacher today, he took a deep breath and endured the breath in his belly, and said: "The student dares to ask Master Su, although this train and the railway are in good condition, I don't know whether the oxen and horses will be used to pull the cart or the car after the railway is completed?" ”

Without waiting for Su Baiyi's excuse, he said quickly: "If you use oxen and horse-drawn carts, this road is full of railroad tracks, sleepers, gravel and other items, I'm afraid that if you don't need two miles of land, this cow and horse will be scrapped, right?" If you use people to pull the car, hehe, the student said something that should not be said, Sui Yangmin pulled the dragon boat, and now there is a Qianshou pulling the train, it is really trapping the Son of Heaven in an unkind and unrighteous place! ”

"yes!"

"That's it, how does this train go!"

"Look at that train, it's so much taller than the Qingdao Liangjiazi next to it, and it's so long, it's all iron lumps, how many oxen and horse-drawn carts do you need?"

"Brother, cows and horses can't do it, the horses' hooves will break if they can't run for two miles, it seems that people are pulling the cart!"

"People pulling carts?"

"This ......"

"Alas......"

"Iniquity!"

The crowd, who were still excited just now, sighed in an instant, full of disappointment with the train!

Su Baiyi looked at Mao Bijiang, and had the urge to go up and chop up this mess!

Wen Zhen Meng, Fu She!

I don't know how to pretend to understand!

Sure enough, there is not a good thing!

"How?" Mao Bijiang smiled and said, "Master Su has nothing to say?" ”

"Humph!" Su Baiyi waved his sleeves and said with a cold face: "When did this official say that he would use the power of humans and animals to pull the train?" Which ear did you hear that the official was going to pull the train with the power of man and animal? Evil words confuse the public, but do you think this official will not dare to punish you for your crimes? ”

"So, students ask for advice!" Mao Bijiang had a smile on his face, without a trace of fear, and his body respectfully bent ninety degrees towards Su Baiyi: "Ask Master Su, what does this train need to do?" ”

Mao Bijiang put on the appearance of a good son, and Su Baiyi couldn't use the topic to play.

I had to take a deep breath and say with a little pity: "The reason why this official is called a train is because what drives the car is the power of fire and water, not the power of humans and animals!" ”

"What?" Everyone was stunned!

"The power of fire and water?" Zhang Shize was dumbfounded!

"Fire and water...... Poof...... "Zhu Guobi, the protector who came with the frontier, sprayed directly."

What is the power of fire and water.

Why don't you say it's the power of the five elements?

You can say such an illusory thing.

"Hahahahaha......" Mao Bijiang's exaggerated laughter was almost impossible to straighten his waist: "It's just a big joke in the world." The power of fire and water, the power of fire and water, Lord Su used such nonsense to deceive me, could it be that I was young and ignorant? ”
