The railroad carriage was built on the east side of Chang'an.

The two of them arrived at the scene in less than half an hour in the city's railroad.

Xiao Jingmao fixed his eyes, and suddenly saw that there were countless sleepers on the flat ground, and the sleepers were extremely black, which should have been treated with anti-corrosion, enough to resist wind and rain erosion, and on this sleeper, four rails were installed, and the rails extended all the way and directly integrated into the sky.

Xiao Jingmao knew that at the end of this railroad track was Tongguan.

On both sides of the tracks, countless crowds are coming.

They are the people of Chang'an City, because they heard about the completion of today's railcar, and they were curious, so they came here to see the railcar that Yang Chenglong had been promoting for a long time.

A curious person squatted directly on the ground and touched the polished shiny rails.

"You actually put 100 smelted steel directly on the ground?

"Crazy or not, I don't know. But did you know that it took a million to build this thing? ”

"One million guan? Our Red Phoenix Army's annual tax is only more than 10 million guan. A tenth of it is wasted on this. ”

"Who's to say it isn't. After all, so much steel is thrown on this place, and I am not afraid of being stolen!"

“......”

In the midst of everyone's speech, they also commented on the railroad tracks, and their words were full of disdain.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingmao also showed a little suspicion and asked, "Why did you spend so much money?"

You must know that in order to maintain the scale of the Red Phoenix Army, there is only so much money in a year's allocation, and so much money is thrown directly to the ground?

"It was built over three years, and it only cost 500,000 yuan a year. Yang Chenglong defended: "And once this thing is completed, it will be able to shorten the time it takes me to go to Tongchuan to at least less than a day." That's one-sixth of what it used to be. It's worth the money. ”

"Is that really the case?" Yang Chenglong was slightly skeptical.

To be honest, he also often rides the railroad carriage in Chang'an City, so he naturally knows that its speed is quite good, and it can make people browse the entire Chang'an within an hour.

But Chang'an to Tongguan is slightly different, the distance is more than 300 miles, if it usually takes at least six days for ordinary people to arrive, if it is an army ready to go, it will take ten years to reach Tongguan.

"Of course, you must know that I have spent a lot of energy to build this railway, otherwise how could I have completed it two years ahead of schedule?" Yang Chenglong raised his chin, his face flushed.

"Railway?" Xiao Jingmao thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Build a road with iron, do you want to spread this railway all over the Guannai?"

Yang Chenglong laughed loudly, and countless lofty ambitions suddenly appeared in his chest, and he shouted: "It's not just Guannei. In the future, I want it to extend all the way to the Central Plains. And in addition to the Central Plains, even the south and even the depths of the desert, you can also go there. ”

At this moment, he began to reverie, if he could spread this thing all over the land of Shenzhou, what kind of scene would it be.

Xiao Jingmao said with a smile: "In that case, then you can show me what the scene of this railway will be." ”

The two walked together, but they came to a house built next to the railroad tracks.

The houses were built of red brick for half a mile, and were more than twice as tall as ordinary houses, and the occasional sound of horses was heard in the stables.

After all, if this railroad carriage were to start, it would need a large number of horses, otherwise it would not be able to maintain its normal operation.

In order to prevent the crowd from spoiling today's celebration, the entire house was also heavily surrounded by the Red Phoenix Army to prevent anyone from sneaking into it and destroying it secretly.

And when Xiao Jingmao and Yang Chenglong stepped into it, they heard a loud sound from it.

"Woo......"

The momentum was staggering, and within miles, it was all clear.

Xiao Jingmao fixed his eyes and saw that there was a huge object standing on the railroad tracks.

He asked, "What is this?"

Yang Chenglong was annoyed, and stepped forward and shouted, "Qin Feng, what are you doing?"

Then I saw that among the huge things, a young man jumped out directly, and said, "What are you doing? Of course, I want to compete with you, so that you know that the so-called horse-drawn wagon in your mouth is just a thing for the situation." Only this thing is truly compatible with the rails!" Pointing to the thing behind him, he was full of confidence and confidence.

Xiao Jingmao fixed his eyes and saw the things in front of him truly.

I saw that this thing was all made of steel, and there was a huge boiler in front of it.

The bottom of this boiler was stuffed with coal, and the charcoal fire was extremely vigorous, and the water in the boiler was steaming, and the air wave was difficult to control, but it was always tightly buckled by the lid of the pot above, and it was difficult to rush out at all.

Most of the sounds they had heard earlier were produced by this thing.

"What is this?" Xiao Jingmao hesitated for a moment and asked.

Qin Feng said casually: "This thing is an iron car I built, and it is used for fire, so it might as well be called a train." Fu You looked at Xiao Jingmao with a curious expression, and then exclaimed: "Could it be that you are Xiao Jingmao, who has recently served as the Government Council? It turns out that you look like this! In this case, I wonder if you can help me do something?"

"Of course!" Xiao Jingmao couldn't help but laugh, and replied with his chin back.

"That's good. Qin Feng immediately smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then why don't you be a witness and help me witness my bet with Yang Chenglong?"

Before Xiao Jingmao could react, Yang Chenglong was already frowning and asked, "What kind of bet?"

"Naturally, it's your carriage, competing with my train!" Qin Feng raised his chin with a provocative expression.

Xiao Jingmao shook his head angrily, and sneered: "Just your train? Have you forgotten the last time, your train was directly involved in an accident and was burned with a pile of scrap iron residues?" Seeing the extremely shabby appearance, he shook his head again and again, and vetoed: "I'm sorry, I don't want you to ruin the railway I was lucky enough to build." ”

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth to shout: "I said you, why are you so old? Have you forgotten, who helped you get the right railroad tracks? Why did you forget these things in a blink of an eye?"

"That said, I must not let this thing get on the railroad. ”

Seeing Xiao Jingmao's puzzled look, Yang Chenglong suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly explained: "You must know that your thing is too dangerous, so let's keep it to yourself." ”

"I've made improvements and it definitely won't be the same as last time. Qin Feng looked anxious and hurriedly shouted.

It's a pity that Yang Chenglong is determined to make up his mind and will never accept any conditions.

Xiao Jingmao saw the tension between the two, and smiled unconsciously: "It's just an experiment, why are you so afraid?"

"You don't know. This guy has experimented once before. As a result, because of the filling of too much coal, the entire boiler was blown up by boiling water, and I lost several people under my command. Otherwise, why do you think I refuse?" Yang Chenglong still insisted on his own opinion and never changed.
