Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 527 Steam Train
Rhodiola is a plant that grows on the plateau. Anyone who has traveled to the plateau will remember this magic medicine.

The medicine with rhodiola as the main ingredient can effectively prevent altitude sickness, which is also the purpose of Yunniang's trip.

The strengthened player's body is naturally not afraid of altitude sickness.

However, if Longyou wanted to completely occupy the Tuyuhun area, a large number of Longyou troops and Longyou officials needed to immigrate.

When Li Mi remonstrated with Li Yan, he talked about the lessons of the Sui Dynasty.

After Emperor Sui Yang destroyed the Tuyuhun area, although he destroyed the upper class and the army in the Tuyuhun area, but because the Sui Dynasty was unable to colonize and immigrate in the Tuyuhun area, Tuyuhun regained its vitality and made a comeback in the early Tang Dynasty decades later, even threatening Taizong Border security towards the Northwest Territories.

After Tang destroyed Tuyuhun, although Emperor Taizong and Gaozong wanted to move the border and completely control the Tuyuhun area, they all had to give up this area because of the high incidence of altitude sickness and acclimatization diseases.

Tuyuhun came back again and restored the country again. Finally, after Tubo invaded Tuyuhun, it completely controlled the Tuyuhun area.

The reason why the Tubo people can completely control the Tuyuhun area is also because the Tubo people, like the Tuyuhun people, are a race living on the plateau.

The Tubo host talked about Shang Qixin'er, who could lead the nobles and soldiers under his command to Tuyuhun without having to suffer from altitude sickness.

They were able to quickly establish a ruling class in the Tuyuhun area, thus completely controlling the land.

This geographical isolation is also the reason why the African continent was able to block European colonists.

Europe has long discovered the vast territory of Africa, but until the nineteenth century, before the invention of the quinine drug to treat malaria, the European colonies have always regarded the black continent of Africa as a dead continent, and did not dare to enter the tropical rainforest of the African continent rashly deep.

After the quinine drug came out and malaria was no longer a terminal illness that killed people, European colonies flocked to the African continent, and the frenzy of carve-up Africa was completed in just half a century.

Now there are only more than 1 players in total, and they are still distributed in the vast land of Datang.

It is impossible to completely rely on players to establish a rule in Tuyuhun, and must rely on the local aborigines.

But altitude sickness is fatal in this era without hyperbaric oxygen chambers. If we really rely entirely on the Tang people to control the Tuyuhun area, instead of fighting it down and letting it out again as before, we must emigrate to the border.

It is also because of this that Qin Chuan commissioned Zhao Chen and Wang Xue to develop a drug that can prevent and treat altitude sickness.

Zhao Chen immediately thought of Rhodiola rosea, the magic medicine for preventing altitude sickness!

So two employees were sent to Tuyuhun to see if they could get Rhodiola out.

The young man walking with Yunniang is named Yang Chunsheng, who is also an employee of the pharmaceutical workshop. He and Yunniang are friends from the same hometown, one year younger than Yunniang. He can't read, but he is good at fighting since he was a child.

Because of his outstanding physical fitness, Yang Chunsheng's task is to protect Yunniang.

Before the steam train entered the station, the flight attendant guarding the platform blew a sharp whistle to disperse the passengers crowded on the edge of the platform.

The train made a long whistle and rumbled into the platform.

Many passengers who took the train for the first time were taken aback by this terrifying steel behemoth.

But when they saw the train conductor coming out of the steam locomotive, the passengers put their minds back again, and began to board the carriages in order under the command of the platform crew.

The steam engine workshop of WISCO's Wu Zhonghua father and son can only rely on Mr. Wu Zhonghua's hand-made steam engine. Because most of the parts need to be produced manually, the performance of the steam engine is not stable enough. An apprentice mechanic must be equipped with the car for maintenance at any time.

The stability of the steam engine is not strong, so for safety reasons, only five carriages are attached to the entire train.

This train will cross the Dangjin Pass and enter the newly built Jinkou City in the Tuyuhun area, which is the destination of the two of Yunniang.

Zhao Chen's treatment at Wang Xue's pharmaceutical workshop is quite good, and Wang Xue has never been stingy with important native subordinates like Yun Niang.

Scientific research is a very profitable industry, and every technician is very important.

Wang Xue bought the best first-class car seat for Yunniang, and did not let Yunniang save money on transportation. Anyway, she will be reimbursed when she returns to the workshop.

Yunniang respects Wang Xue, the proprietress very much. When she was in the workshop, she was often taken care of by Wang Xue. Wang Xue taught Yunniang personally, teaching her the knowledge of chemistry and pharmaceuticals.

Before this Zhengdan long holiday, Wang Xue had a conversation with Yunniang.

Wang Xue intends to build a new workshop in Jinkou City in Tuyuhun, specializing in the production of rhodiola-like drugs.

Wang Xue intends to let Yunniang be in charge of this new workshop, so this inspection is also meant to train Yunniang.

Wang Xue has long discovered that the local aborigines who have not received nine-year compulsory education do not have a solid foundation in science studies. Although Yunniang can master the manufacturing process of the pharmaceutical workshop, it is too difficult for these aborigines to engage in scientific research.

There is no way to succeed in any rigorous subject after one or two years of surprise study. Yun Niang's qualifications are already good, but at most she can only become a technical leader in charge of production, and cannot participate in the research and development of new drugs. Work.

However, compared with the scientific knowledge that needs to be accumulated, management science is easy to advance by leaps and bounds in practice.

After Yun Niang was promoted to be the supervisor of the production workshop of the pharmaceutical factory, she quickly adapted to the position and managed the entire production workshop in an orderly manner.

Rhodiola is considered a plant extract, but the extraction process is not much different from salicylic acid.

The technical difficulty of the entire pharmaceutical factory is not very difficult, and Yun Niang, a native who knows a little bit of technology, can manage the workshop.

Wang Xue hopes that Yunniang can become an independent workshop manager, so she wants to use this task to train her.

The first-class seat is very spacious, because it is a short-distance train from Shazhou North to Jinkou City, and it only takes seven hours to arrive, so there is no sleeper car on this train, and the first-class seat is already the most spacious car .

The train attendants in simple new Tang suits guide the guests to their seats. After the commotion, the first-class carriages are full of people.

Three whistles sounded again, and the train moved slowly.

Yang Chunsheng watched curiously as the train started slowly, and the platform outside the window quickly moved backwards. He yelled loudly, causing the passengers nearby to cast strange glances.

Yunniang bumped Yang Chunsheng with her elbow, and he reacted to his gaffe and quickly lowered his head.

"Onigiri onigiri, hot onigiri!"

The train began to move at a constant speed, and the stewards pushed the trolleys and began to sell food to passengers.

Rice balls are a new food that only appeared after King Yue came to rule Longyou.

The popularity of any kind of food is the combined effect of economic development, people's taste and the development of planting industry.

The pace of life in Longyou is getting faster and faster, and ordinary people have less and less time to cook food that requires a long time to prepare and cook.

Take the villagers in the post station as an example, as long as they are willing to endure hardships and work in the service area of ​​the post station, they can earn a lot of money in half a day.

In this case, whether it is more cost-effective to cook and wash clothes full-time at home, or to go out to earn money, is almost a matter of no need to choose.

As more and more housewives go out to work, the need to buy food arises.

Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to go to restaurants every day, and those foods that are filling, nutritious, and convenient to eat have become popular.

Onigiri is one of them.

The hot rice is kneaded into balls, and various dishes with rich soup are wrapped inside. It is convenient and warm to put in a wooden barrel.

You only need to hold the rice ball in your hand, and you can eat it quickly with any bowl and chopsticks. When she was working in Jiuquan Pharmaceutical Workshop, Yun Niang often bought a rice ball for lunch in the morning after the night shift.

Yunniang bought a rice ball, the sticky rice was wrapped with minced mutton and radish, it tasted delicious and satisfying, and Yang Chunsheng who was beside him cried out that it was delicious.

The whole carriage was filled with the smell of rice balls, and several passengers who were not planning to buy rice balls were also aroused by greed, calling the conductor to buy rice balls one after another.

This trip was the most comfortable part of Yunniang's entire Zhengdan holiday.

Sitting in the train, although the impact of the rails and the wheels of the train is a bit noisy, but after getting used to it, it is much more comfortable than a carriage.

The train is much more stable than the horse-drawn carriage. The most important thing is that the train ride is really comfortable. The warm carriage is even more luxurious than Yunniang's previous home. Just sitting here is a good experience.

Not to mention that you can also see the outside scenery through the glass windows, and you can stand up and move around when you are tired from sitting, and the riding experience is full.

In the afternoon, the train began to climb up the mountain, and the speed gradually slowed down.

But the mountain scenery outside the window attracted Yunniang even more. She changed seats with Yang Chunsheng and sat by the window to enjoy the snow forest scenery she had never seen before.

"Is this little lady going to Jinkou City to visit relatives or work?"

Sitting opposite Yun Niang was a young man dressed as a scholar who looked about the same age as Yun Niang.

Since getting in the car, this young man has often peeked at Yun Niang, and when Yun Niang switched to the opposite side of him, the man couldn't help asking.

He quickly said, "Sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm from Jingzhao, the fifth plain."

Seeing that Wu Wuyuan is a scholar, Yunniang liked her a little more, and she also simply said politely: "The little girl's surname is Yang, and the single character is Yun, and she is from Longyou. This time, she is going to Jinkou City for business."
