Chapter 56: Satisfaction and Frustration (II)

Lingao, Dongmen City, the new train station that has just been completed

After several years of hard work, the former Lingao Traveler Senate has built an urban railway system from Bopu Port to Nanbao Town (the edge of the actual jurisdiction of the county, close to the mountainous Li village) in the county, so as to facilitate the transportation of coal and iron resources unloaded from the port of Bopu Port to the industrial zone, and the grain and daily necessities imported from overseas to the populated areas, and at the same time facilitate the circulation of people and goods in the territory of the traverser.

However, although such a railway has amazed the natives of the Ming Dynasty, and it does have a lot of practical significance, but after all, it is just a miniature gadget like an amusement park train, not only the speed of the train is very slow, probably about the same as the speed of ordinary people, so that it can be like the modern Indian Railways to "sell tickets" to engage in plug-in passenger transport, and the length of the total operating mileage is only about 20 kilometers.

However, the completed West Ring Railway on Hainan Island is a completely different concept -- from Lingao County in the north of Hainan Island to Sanya Port in the southernmost part, plus a branch line extending to Shilu Iron Mine, it encircles the whole island in half a circle along the coastline, passing through six counties and cities, with a total length of more than 300 kilometers. Compared with the original urban railway system in Lingao County, it is equivalent to the size difference between a Chihuahua and a German Shepherd.

Of course, a railway of this magnitude, even with the famous "Chinese speed" of modern Chinese engineering teams, will take at least a year or two to be completed. But with Doraemon's magical props, the railroad is paved like a play.

- You know, in order to make Nobi's father a little easier when he goes to work in the morning, and no longer have to squeeze the kind of canned sardines in the subway car, the two of them dug a private subway from Nobi's house to Nobi's father's company in Tokyo in a few nights, not counting the delay of digging the hole in the wrong direction and hitting the river several times during the period......

Nowadays, from the subway that needs to be drilled to resist pressure and leakage, it has been replaced by a ground railway with lower construction difficulty, and the site selection of the laying route and the geological data along the way can copy the ready-made records of the modern Hainan Island Ring Island Railway, and the construction speed of the railway is even faster than jaw-dropping: the entire construction team of more than 20 black technology automatic paving machines started together, and it only took one day to complete the entire railway

As for the rest of the construction period, it is mainly in the construction of the railway station, the planting of warning signs, the laying of auxiliary roads, the maintenance workshop, as well as the training of train drivers and railway maintenance personnel, etc., and by the way to solve some late land requisition disputes - because the railway was paved too quickly, in several of the sections, the engineering vehicles actually simply and rudely crushed through the middle of the landlord's mansion, so that these gentry had an additional railway station in their yards, so naturally caused countless turmoil afterwards, There are even villagers who are coaxing to smash the train and rip the railway: the rule of the Senate of the Travelers over Hainan Island has only achieved relatively strict all-round control in a small area such as Lingao, Chengmai, and Qiongzhou, while many remote places on the west coast, far from the core of the rule, can only be in a laissez-faire state for the time being due to the insufficient number of qualified subordinates. Therefore, there are still many squires who are hostile to the "Australian thieves", coupled with the losses caused to them by the brutal construction of the Western Ring Railway, these rural places soon exploded together.

Obviously, the various "mass movements" of these ignorant villagers have seriously disturbed the construction of the ancillary facilities of the Ring Island Railway (West Route), delayed the official opening of the railway, and made the PLA engineering troops very distressed. Because they were not familiar with the local people in this time and space, and in order to avoid dirty hands, these troubles were finally packed up by the PLA engineering troops and thrown to the Lingao Traveler Senate to find a way to solve them.

The Senate of the Lingao Travelers, who had long understood the cruelty of this era, immediately dispatched the most barbaric and brutal special security force under its command -- this security force, which was ordered to take the train to the railway line to "maintain stability", was trained and led by naturalized civilian officers who had made mistakes, and its composition included Japanese ronin who could not eat all year round, Annam slaves who had no personal freedom since childhood, Li and Miao hunters who were so poor that they had no pants to wear, poor fishermen and pirates who longed for a new life, and Western sailors who came to the East with the dream of making a fortune but became captives, and so on. Needless to say, this group of fellows is a rabble of strict discipline who can ban the breathtaking amount of Cheng dΓΉ for the sake of three meals a day of meaty rice and blood-stained booty.

Previously, this unit was stationed in the Shilu Iron Mine and the Sanya slave camp, supervising the Malayan and Javanese slave laborers who were imported from the South Seas, and were therefore very proficient in all kinds of torture, and their brutality was claimed to be able to stop children's night crying. The person in charge of this "stability maintenance" operation is the old boss of this army, the outstanding representative of the naturalized people of the Senate, and the civil affairs adviser of Sanya and the director of the slave camp Hu Xun -- before the arrival of the traverser, Hu Xun was a wealthy family who monopolized the place of Anyu City (the name of the Ming Dynasty in Sanya), and he was like a local emperor who dominated one side, and sold stolen goods for pirates all year round, and dealt with all kinds of heroes on the sea every day, so he developed an extremely fierce and brutal temper, otherwise he would have become a fat meat in other people's mouths.

After Hu Xun was very sensible and obedient to the traverser, the Senate sent him to take care of the slaves very wisely, and Hu Xun really made the Sanya slave camp like Auschwitz...... In short, even a tiger has to kneel, even a dragon has to lie on its stomach, and the mass graves outside the slave camps are expanding at an alarming rate every year, and it is said that the local wild dogs have eaten dead human flesh all day long, and their eyes are red......

In short, as soon as such a group of fierce and vicious fierce men appeared, the villagers who were making trouble in various places along the railway line were immediately frightened and peed their pants -- Hainan Island is located in a remote area, and the style of writing is weak, and even the so-called landlords and squires can hardly find a few scholars with merit and fame. In the social environment of the Ming Dynasty, if there was no fame, even if there was a good land and a beautiful house, it could not be called a gentleman, and he did not have the courage to go against the government: therefore, most of the squires whose interests were damaged happily accepted the land requisition compensation from the Senate, expressed their warm welcome to the railway from their own villages, and "voluntarily" took on the labor of regularly cleaning the railroad tracks. A handful of die-hards were shot out of a few bloody holes and hung on coconut trees - the dead don't need land requisition...... The entire efficient sweeping process lasted only three days, and calm was restored along the railway line. No one dares to talk nonsense anymore.

Therefore, now the west line railway around the island from Lingao to Sanya can be opened to traffic on the whole line. The East Line Railway around the island from Lingao to Sanya in the other direction is also in full swing of preparation and planning. At that time, there will be a railway system similar to the shape of a ring around the entire Hainan Island, and it will be one step closer to the great goal of industrialization and modernization of the whole island......

At this moment, Wang Qiu and his mother Wang Meiling, as well as Huang Shi, Ma Tong and others, were standing boredly on the cement square in front of the new railway station, watching a certain former prime minister wearing a suit and leather shoes, standing on the stage and making a lengthy speech that made people sleepy.

On the top of Premier Wen's head, a red chemical fiber cloth banner was used to mark the words "Qiongdao West Ring Railway Opening Ceremony".

-- As for Doraemon, who provided a channel for purchasing props, the biggest contributor to the miraculous completion of this "express railway", he was not interested in appearing here at all, but continued to play on the beach with Nobita and the others, eating barbecue and watermelon by the way......

The speeches of His Excellency the former Premier of the State Council and others at the celebration were nothing new in themselves, and they were nothing more than official articles that they had long been tired of hearing. However, looking at so many Ming Dynasty natives in wide clothes and big sleeves, Li mountain people with barefoot tattoos, and Westerners dressed in the Renaissance era, standing with the modern People's Liberation Army wearing camouflage uniforms, leaning their necks together to listen to the leader's speech...... Well, it's kind of funny.

In addition, the sharp-eyed Wang Qiu also noticed that when the prime minister first came up, his expression seemed to be a little strange, except when it was his turn to speak, he always couldn't help but sit alone in his seat and secretly laugh, or make some weird expressions...... What the hell is going on?

Next, Wang Qiu quickly got a ridiculous and strange answer from his gossipy-loving mother, Wang Meiling.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hey, it's funny to say, less than an hour before the opening of the ceremony, a Ming Dynasty scholar knelt in the middle of the road with a piece of paper, shouting to sue the emperor. The prime minister thought it was funny, so he asked people to bring this guy over, and as soon as they met, the product sprayed the prime minister with ......"

Wang Meiling said this, while taking out her mobile phone and calling up a somewhat blurry video image, she saw a young scholar with a disheveled and red face inside, who was being dragged by two PLA soldiers, but he was still spitting with righteous indignation, and scolded loudly in Cantonese: "...... These shameless Australian thieves, the barbarian scum who hide filth and dirt, are bent on destroying our name, teachings, laws, and other people, shaving their hair and making it easy to obey, and corrupting the human ethics and discipline in the academy set up in Qiongzhou, where men and women live in the same room, turning the place where the saints preach and teach into a filthy place for male thieves and female prostitutes, which can be described as shameless; Forcibly betraying the country and gentry all kinds of useless playthings, corrupting the world, and exploiting the small people, it can be described as unjust; You and others widely accept the people as minions, do not know how to treat the scholars, and kill the gentry more than the Japanese invaders, which can be described as unkind; Claiming to be a descendant of the former Song Dynasty, he is a foreign state of the remnants of the Celestial Dynasty, but he does not want to devote all his family resources to serve the court, in order to fulfill the righteousness of the princely vassals, but steals the territory of the Ming Dynasty, refuses to obey the king, and even blackmails the government. If you don't change your ways as soon as possible, there will be a terrible disaster in the future......"

Wang Qiu was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but Huang Shi groaned helplessly, "...... Oh, here we go again, and that's kind of a boot formation? Or is it a liar? Or is it learning Fan Wencheng's sword and sword? These grandstanding guys ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It turns out that this guy is pretending to be amazing, just to make a reputation? But this is too risky, isn't it possible that the scholars in the last years of the Ming Dynasty have gone crazy in order to become famous? Wang Qiu muttered in disbelief, "...... And what about Fan Wencheng's allusions? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, it is said that when Nurhachi captured Liaodong, there were also several Ming Dynasty scholars who came like this in front of him. Most of the fools were naturally cut down, but there was also one who was particularly good at talking, but he was appointed because of this, that is, the big traitor Fan Wencheng......"

Huang Shi replied, "The Ming Dynasty was too crazy to engage in the noble and martial arts, and the government was so weak that the kidneys of the famous scholars were too weak, and as a result, all the scholars in the world were spoiled -- this guy is probably the kind of scholar who recommended himself to seek officials, spoke disrespectfully, and the monarch was a virtuous corporal and spit on himself to listen to a lot ......of dramas, thinking that as long as he showed some discipline and nonsense, our side would tolerate his offense, and even respect him as a guest."

Hearing this, Wang Qiu also understood, isn't this the kind of "public intellectual" who criticizes the party, the country, and the people all day long?

-- Throughout the ages, from the Qingliu Party to the Donglin Party and then to the "Five-Cent Focus," it seems to be a routine: they are only responsible for playing with their mouths and playing with their pens. Keep blaming others for their shortcomings and mistakes, keep smearing others, and elevate yourself. The self-proclaimed role model for all the people in the world, it seems that as long as they get the official seal, they will immediately clear the Haiyan River, the world will be peaceful, and the people will be happy. If they can't do it after they seize power and come to power, or even make the world worse. I'm sorry, it's just that you need to wait for the people to endure the labor pain, but whether this labor pain lasts for a few years or generations, they don't say. Anyway, the Buddha once said that an instant is the same as 10,000 years, so you should have a pain for 10,000 years first.

Moreover, for these literati, the standard of "people" in their eyes is very high, and basically only the gentry with meritorious names can be regarded as ordinary people. The rest can only be ants who have the obligation to feed them after paying taxes on their food. No matter how many ants starve to death, it will not damage their reputation, which is the same as the high caste of modern India, the whole of India's more than a billion people, but in their eyes less than 100 million can be regarded as people.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ This is the real-life version of the ancient madness, right? What did you do with this guy later? Wang Qiu asked his mother.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's not that good, it's just a rag in his mouth and tied it up, and handed it over to the police station organized by the Lingao Traveler Group. ”

Wang Meiling shrugged her shoulders and replied, "... Otherwise, do we still have to find a professor of ancient literature to debate with him? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ This is a very good disposition, and it is pointless to argue with such people who live in their own fantasy worlds. Such Ming Dynasty madmen usually regard themselves as omnipotent gods, and at the same time their brains are as stubborn as granite, and they are generally completely unable to understand what they are saying, just like people who are not in the same world as us at all. And even if you can really refute him verbally, he will only put on a contemptuous expression, refuse to admit defeat, refuse to talk to you, in short, look down on you. Yuan Chonghuan, whom I have seen, is one of the typical examples of this kind of person, and if possible, I try to talk to them with knives and bullets now......"

Huang Shi nodded and said, "...... According to the consistent practice of Lingao's side, because it is necessary to follow the Song Dynasty's tradition of 'not sinnering people with words), this madman should be labeled a mentally ill person, nailed to iron chains, and sent to a slave camp in Sanya to serve his sentence. With the general level of physical qualities that scholars in the Ming Dynasty could not lift their shoulders or pick up, it was estimated that in less than three months, he would be able to go with the corpses of those Nanyang natives to use as fodder for wild dogs......"

- Alas, it seems that this trick of "being mentally ill" is really useful, and it can be called a universal one

Wang Qiu rolled his eyes and thought so, and at the same time a very pretending and pulling sentence came out in his heart: I have witnessed the birth and destruction of the country, the prosperity and decline of the nation, and under countless long times, only the stupidity of mortals is eternal......

β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»β€»

By the time more than a dozen leaders from the oldest to the youngest had finished speaking in turn, more than two hours had passed, and the sun had already set in the west...... So, when the red silk hanging above the two railroad tracks was cut by a giant pair of gold-painted scissors, and then a cartoon-shaped steam train (also from Doraemon's black technology toy) let out a loud whistle and rumbled into the platform, many people who were already drowsy and had sore hands and feet couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

- This boring hypnotic ritual of Rausch is finally over......

Then, a large number of PLA soldiers lined up to board the bus, ready to leave Lingao and drive to Sanya. Next, the medical staff and service personnel of the Lingao Special Seaside Sanatorium will also be transferred to Sanya one after another - because there is a large flow of people and a mix of forces on the Lingao side, which is not conducive to security work. Moreover, the central officials, the PLA fighters, and the troops of the traverser group are in the same city, and all kinds of contradictions are prone to erupt.

Therefore, according to the predetermined plan, after the opening of the railway that can quickly connect the two places, the modern time and space government will shift its main efforts to the geographically more remote Sanya, where a new large recuperation center will be built to accommodate more patients who come for treatment......

On the other hand, the distancing of the government's direct forces can also make the members of the Lingao crossing group feel more comfortable - to be precise, in this way, it is equivalent to returning the core area of Lingao to them, thus avoiding confusion in the hearts of the people in society.

However, looking at this bustling scene of people coming and going, Wang Qiu suddenly felt a little melancholy, and couldn't help but mutter.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hey, is my great adventure through time and space just to provide services for the health of leading comrades? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ If you want to open a little, don't think that there is nothing to raise your head to serve the leader. If you show your hand in a capitalist country, then the next person who can enjoy the medical services of black technology is not the same as the boss of a big business group and a senior official of the government? ”

Wang Meiling patted him on the shoulder and persuaded him, "...... Think about it, the leading comrades of the entire Central Committee have owed you favors, and even picked up a life because of you, even if it is just in line with the old rules of courtesy, your future is destined to be smooth sailing in the future, at least if you want to be promoted to the department level, it should be absolutely no problem, as for if you want to spend money, you can take it directly from the treasury

Moreover, I don't know if you have noticed that according to the list, it is not only the previous leaders of the Ministry who can enjoy these black technology medical services, but also many well-known domestic scientific researchers in various fields - this is even more significant for our country and nation

You must know that today's modern science and technology are becoming more and more difficult, and if there is not enough time to accumulate knowledge, it is impossible to carry out any breakthrough research at the forefront of science and technology. However, human lifespan is limited, except for some special disciplines, a scientist who wants to learn through the profession and accumulate enough knowledge to reach the point where he can independently create a new topic generally has to learn to be thirty or forty years old.

In this way, when many scientists finally develop a valuable result and touch the edge of success, they are usually in their fifties and sixties. In the next few years, their minds will start to dull up. Moreover, due to the perennial research work without sleep and food, insufficient exercise, and lack of regularity in life, a considerable number of scientists are not in good health, so that their life expectancy is not long...... And genius scientists with real extraordinary value are scarce in any era, and the premature fall of every technology superstar will make people sigh.

Now, through this unprecedented large-scale time-traveling operation, as well as these future medical black technologies that can only be used in other worlds, we have successfully extended the golden time for these scientists to engage in scientific research, cured their diseases, and strengthened their physiques, not only allowing them to come up with more scientific and technological achievements, but also improving our country's scientific research capabilities in disguise, and even a boon to the progress of civilization for all mankind...... In addition, there are some eighth-level technical workers who need time and experience to accumulate, and there are very scarce special talents in China, which also prolongs the time to serve the people - so how can your current job lack meaning? ”

- Suddenly, Wang Qiu suddenly realized when he heard this, and his originally depressed mood suddenly became brighter......
