With the passage of time, Zhang Feng has been on the throne as emperor for a year, during this year, Zhang Feng has done a lot of things, and also introduced a lot of policies and measures, the entire Chinese empire, is slowly recovering, and the economy is gradually prospering.

It seems that everything has entered the fast lane, and the development of the whole society is accelerating, and it is gradually undergoing changes, social changes, industrial technology changes, and so on.

Capitalism has gradually developed from the embryonic state, and now, many handicraft workshops have emerged throughout the country, especially in the Nanzhili area, where a large number of commodities are manufactured from the handicraft workshops and then flow to the market, and the economy is becoming more and more prosperous, and there are more and more types of goods.

At this time, the superiority of the railway is reflected, and the goods are transported by the railway, which is more convenient to flow to various places.

Of course, there are a large number of goods that pass through the port of Shanghai, are loaded on ships and exported overseas, such as Korea, Naha, and even Luzon or Japan.

With the full opening of the sea ban, some nimble-minded, far-sighted and capital-rich private businessmen have also formed an ocean-going fleet to carry out ocean-going trade, or through large sailing ships or steam-powered seagoing ships, to transport goods out, and then exchange a large amount of money, as well as a large amount of grain, industrial raw materials, and local specialties.

Stimulated by high profits in ocean trade, the development is very rapid, not only the Shanghai Port, Tianjin Port, and the expanded Quanzhou Port, etc., are very busy.

The shipyards in the country are not only Shanghai Shipyard or Ningbo Shipyard, some private shipyards have emerged, and many of them are relatively strong large shipyards.

For example, in Quanzhou, which has a long history of shipbuilding and a very solid heritage, there are not only newly established Quanzhou shipyards with military backgrounds, but also some private shipyards, the largest of which is a private shipyard, which can build more than 3,000 ocean-going sail ships.

Such ocean-going sailing ships are very popular and have become the most sought-after cargo of the private ocean-going fleet, to the extent that they need to be ordered. The owner of this shipyard even began to buy marine steam engines from the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau in preparation for the construction of steam-powered sea ships.

The Chinese nation's long-standing and powerful shipbuilding technology began to glow in the second spring, with large ships being launched one by one and ocean-going trade fleets sailing on the sea.

Of course, infrastructure construction has not stopped, with the full disclosure of cement manufacturing technology, cement plants began to appear all over the country, and cement roads appeared in many places.

In the Nanzhili area, the first cement highway in the country has been built, from Shanghai to Songjiang Mansion, to Suzhou Mansion, and all the way to Nanjing.

The development of transportation has also accelerated the development of the economy, promoted the development of industry and commerce, and began to enter a virtuous circle.

In agriculture, with the promotion of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, as well as the improvement of agricultural products by the Ministry of Agriculture, it is estimated that this year will be a bumper year.

In order to encourage the promotion of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, Zhang Feng allocated a large amount of silver, and all farmers who planted these crops were not only tax-free and free of charge, but also had certain subsidies.

In addition, encourage the reclamation of wasteland, all the newly opened farmland, the people who have property rights, and there are also silver subsidies, all over the country, set off an upsurge of reclamation, and even a large number of farmers, under the encouragement of the government, go to the northeast to open up and reclaim and settle.

In Zhang Feng's view, the population of the country is still a little small, not only the Northeast needs immigrants, but also the Americas also need immigrants.

In the future of the Americas, it will definitely be necessary to immigrate to the past, Zhang Feng implemented a policy of encouraging childbirth, encouraging everyone to have more children, encouraging everyone to immigrate and so on.

Militarily.

Through rational planning, nine military regions have been established, of which the headquarters of the Xinjiang Military Region is set up in Ili, the headquarters of the Mongolian Military Region is set up in Ulaanbaatar, and the headquarters of the Northeast Military Region is set up in Haishengwei, and a large military port is being built in Haishengwei.

On the basis of the original 20 infantry divisions, it has been expanded to 50 divisions, and the new recruits of each division are full and they are stepping up training.

Of the nine major military regions, the Nanjing Military Region has the largest number of personnel, with 12 infantry divisions, and Zhang Feng naturally has a purpose in doing so, and is fully prepared for a big battle in the future.

Because the Nanzhili railway system is the most developed and the mobilization of troops is convenient, not only the Shanghai-Nanjing railway that is now in operation, but also the Pukou station has been completed, the Beijing-Pudong line is being built, and even some sections have been opened to traffic.

For example, most of the section from Pukou to Bengbu has been completed, and it is estimated that it will not take a year to open to traffic. With these railway transport troops, the soldiers of the infantry divisions of the Nanjing Military Region will be able to arrive in Shanghai by train and board ships in Shanghai Port very quickly.

The Beijing Military Region is responsible for the defense of the entire capital area, and the number of infantry divisions is quite large, with nine infantry divisions, and several infantry divisions are stationed in the suburbs of Beijing, including the first infantry division of the ace division.

In Tianjin, Langfang and other places, infantry divisions were also stationed, and with the construction of the Beijing-Pudong railway, the mobilization of these infantry divisions was also very convenient.

If you need to go out to fight, each infantry division can take a train to Tianjin Port and board the ship at Tianjin Port, which is very convenient.

Early summer.

If you're in the south, it's already a little hot, and in the north, it's very cool, or rather refreshing.

Today, the Beijing railway station is full of joy, after more than a year, under the labor of more than 100,000 captive laborers, the Beijing-Tianjin section of the railway is finally opened to traffic.

In the station, next to platform 1, a train is ready, the front of the train, with a festive red flower, the front of the locomotive in black and the main color, with a certain amount of red, very good-looking, and seen in TV, the kind of locomotive in the late Qing Dynasty is very similar.

This is the second generation of locomotive, after the operation of the Shanghai-Nanjing line, combined with the operation of the train, the technical backbone of the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau has upgraded the locomotive, after the upgrade, the life of the train is longer, the stability is higher, and the adaptability to the environment is stronger.

Even in the harsh winters of the north, this locomotive runs reliably, and behind the locomotive, a total of eight green train cars.

Compared with the previous five or six train cars, the number of carriages is significantly higher, which shows that this locomotive has more strength and can pull more carriages.

Of course, the carriage is still mainly made of wood, only the underframe and skeleton of the stressed carriage are made of steel, and the rest are basically wooden, so that the carriage is lighter and the cost is lower.

Because it is a low-speed train, the speed is only twenty or thirty kilometers per hour, such carriages are completely sufficient, and each carriage is of course shorter than modern carriages, and there are fewer passengers. Today's train carriages generally have more than 110 seats, while this kind of green wooden carriage has only 60 or 70 seats.

Zhang Feng did not attend the opening ceremony, but dressed in casual clothes, taking Qin Xiaoyu and Princess Kunxin with him, there was no way, both of them were clamoring to come, so they had to bring them all together. As for Chen Yuanyuan, he was already pregnant just now and was not suitable for going out.

After years of hard work, it finally blossomed, Zhang Feng was still worried that he might not be able to have children because of the traverser, but he didn't think about it, after his hard work, Chen Yuanyuan was pregnant.

This is a great event, Zhang Feng is very happy, now Chen Yuanyuan is around, a large group of people are serving, Zhang Feng often accompanies Chen Yuanyuan, if it weren't for his pregnancy, Zhang Feng would have brought not only Princess Kunxing and Qin Xiaoyu when he went out this time, but even Chen Yuanyuan would have brought it.

Beijing Railway Station is bustling, in the northern region, trains are completely new, many people have never seen trains, or only heard of trains in the south.

What I heard was a few words, as well as all kinds of mysteries of the train, which intensified everyone's curiosity about the train, and on the first day of the opening of the train, even if you couldn't take the train, many people came to see the excitement.

In order to satisfy everyone, there are many additional trains today, one train in half an hour, Zhang Feng naturally took the first train, with two women, followed by a few guards dressed in civilian clothes far away, Zhang Feng got on the train like ordinary people.

On the train, it is lively, the people in the north are taking the train for the first time, and everything they see is novel, take a look here, take a look there.

The train is clean and bright, with large glass windows, and the breeze blows in from the outside, which is also comfortable, and the seats of Zhang Feng and the three of them are connected together, Zhang Feng sits in the aisle, and Princess Kunxing and Qin Xiaoyu sit inside.

In the carriage, many people are looking for their seats, and the train tickets have seat numbers, and everyone still knows that they are seated.

Squeezing around, someone's money bag fell to the ground, Zhang Feng was sitting next to the aisle, so Zhang Feng saw it, and he was the first to see it, while the person who dropped the money bag was unaware, and he was still holding the ticket, looking for his place.

Zhang Feng was about to remind, and someone also found out that it was a young man, wearing coarse cloth clothes, and he was not a wealthy person at first glance, although this young man was very short of money, he was not greedy for money, and immediately kindly reminded: "This big brother, your money bag has dropped." ”

The middle-aged man who was looking for his seat patted his waist, saw that the money bag was really not there, and was shocked, and when he saw the money bag on the ground, he immediately picked it up, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, thank you so much." ”

The young man hurriedly said, "No, no, this is as it should be." ”

Seeing this warm scene, Zhang Feng felt that the social atmosphere had really improved, which may be related to the series of measures he has taken, and it is also related to the severe crackdown this year and the use of heavy codes in troubled times.

An old man also saw this scene, and immediately said with emotion: "The current social atmosphere is really different, the old man has lived for sixty or seventy years, and it is the first time to feel the Tao, today's society, there is the wind of the Tang Dynasty, the road is not forgotten, and there is no need to close the house at night." ”

Someone immediately agreed: "Yes, His Majesty the Emperor today, is simply the Emperor of the ages, the life of our common people is getting better and better, everyone has something to eat, if it was placed two or three years ago, I can't even think of it." ”

Hearing this, Princess Kunxing and Qin Xiaoyu glanced at each other, and the two girls covered their mouths happily and chuckled, and even Qin Xiaoyu gently pulled the corners of Zhang Feng's clothes, looking proud and happy.

Zhang Feng thought in his heart, the people's evaluation of themselves is too high, they have not done enough, they still need to work hard for a long time, so that everyone can live a good life, civil officials are not greedy for money, military attaches are not afraid of death, that is their goal.

Soon after, the train whistled and started slowly.

"Look, it's moving, it's really moving!"

Many people shouted in surprise, and in their tones, they were full of joy, everyone was riding the train for the first time, and the freshness obviously filled the entire carriage.

The train started slowly, then the speed became faster and faster, out of Beijing Station, and not long after, out of Beijing City, the speed also stabilized, about 30 kilometers per hour speed smoothly.

The sound of "clang, clang" is very rhythmic, which shows that the speed is very stable, looking out of the window, trees, houses, etc. are retreating, Zhang Feng, who is used to seeing these, naturally has nothing new, and others are different, in the carriage, there have been people shouting in surprise.

"Look, look, it's so fast, it's much faster than riding a horse!"

"The trees are receding backwards!"

"It's amazing!"

“……”

The atmosphere in the carriage was very warm, and even after a long time, everyone still felt that everything was very new. Zhang Feng also looked out of the car.

Now that the location has reached the outskirts of Beijing, Zhang Feng can see a large area of farmland outside the car window, and he can see a large area of crops, including an endless corn field, a large area of potatoes and so on.

It can be seen that at least in the capital area, this kind of high-yield crops have been popularized in an all-round way, and with the popularization of high-yield crops, vigorously encourage the cultivation of wasteland, Zhang Feng believes that in a few years, it is estimated that the problem of eating for the common people in the whole country will be solved.

Of course, a large number of ships are constantly bringing back a large amount of grain from overseas, which solves the problem of eating for many people.

The train was very stable, at a speed of 20 or 30 kilometers, out of Beijing, stopping at more than a dozen stations on the way, and in the afternoon, the train arrived safely at Tianjin Railway Station.

Tianjin Railway Station is a big station, the scale of construction is not small, several platforms, more than a dozen railways, to Cangzhou direction, the railway has been extended.

The Jingpu Line starts from Beijing Railway Station, goes to Tianjin Railway Station, and then goes all the way south, to Cangzhou, through Xuzhou, Bengbu, and finally to Nanjing Pukou Station, with a total length of more than 1,000 kilometers.

More than 100,000 laborers have been involved in the construction of the railway, and judging from the current progress, it will take about another two to three years to complete the entire line and open it to traffic.

At the same time, the construction of two other railway arteries, from Beijing to Zhengzhou and Zhengzhou to Xi'an, also began.

Tianjin train people, the same lively.

Zhang Feng took the two daughters, and with the bustling crowd, the three of them went out of Tianjin Station together, and after leaving the station, Zhang Feng said: "Let's go, let's go eat something first." ”

After taking the train for most of the day, she was really a little hungry, and Princess Kunxing said happily: "Let's go, let's eat." ”
