Daming: Distribution of Lingnan, you develop the Pearl River Delta?

Chapter 145 The opportunity to ride in the car with King Qin!

There is an opening ceremony here at the train station.

The scene also invited professional boat painting girls to the platform to perform some dance programs.

This is a grand opening ceremony.

Luo Min was also present.

He was accompanied by some wealthy businessmen from Xin'an County, as well as people from all walks of life.

When Zhu Xi and Zhu Biao arrived together, the scene was boiling.

"King Qin!"

"His Highness came in person?"

"The railway is the top priority for His Highness's development this year. It is expected that he would come to participate!"

"Quick, let's applaud together!"

"..."

The appearance of Zhu Ping pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.

Zhu Biao beside him was also very happy.

Apart from anything else, the atmosphere is still very lively.

People are everywhere.

On the stage, there are beautiful women dancing and seductive.

Moreover, those beauties are all dressed coolly, which is particularly eye-catching.

It's just a bit inconsistent with etiquette.

Lifa is definitely against this kind of thing.

However, under Zhu Xi's rule, people have become accustomed to this kind of opening situation.

And those beauties will also wear a veil.

This is not stipulated by the organizer or Zhu Ping, but caused by the limitations of the times... Those women who are exposed to the public are also afraid of being poked in the back and do not want their appearance to be seen.

Zhu Biao nodded when he saw this. After sitting down, he said to Zhu Xi: "Second brother, no wonder Prime Minister Zuo will accuse you of being immoral. It is really not good to open a business like this and let those women wear so little to dance in the morning." .”

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Fang said, "It's not good if no one comes to see it! Think about it, I have invested so much in the railway. The whole of Lingnan doesn't know how much manpower and material resources have been invested. Those maritime merchants overseas are not grabbing gold." We have already brought silver and jewelry, and we have been hauling ore and oil for several months. At the Construction Bureau, hundreds of thousands of workers worked day and night, and finally we have what we have today. However, when it comes to the final moment, not many people come to attend the opening. During the ceremony, the train starts moving, but no one comes to sit on it, then I am at a big loss!"

Regarding Zhu Fang's words, Zhu Biao thought for a while and did not refute.

Because, he found that he couldn't refute it at all.

It seems that it is indeed what Zhu Xi said!

Zhu Ping invested too much financial, human and material resources in building the railway.

There's even time.

Now that we have finally succeeded, shouldn’t we publicize it in a big way?

At this time, Luo Min came over and asked Zhu Ping to give a speech.

Singing and dancing were temporarily put aside.

Amid the attention of everyone, Zhu Ping came to the stage and waved: "Hello everyone, I am here to attend the opening ceremony of the railway today. I believe everyone knows what a railway is. Let me tell you that in the future, the railway will be the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty and even in the world. The main means of transportation! Moreover, the railway will be particularly safe and fast. In the past, our transportation relied on legs. How long does it take to go from Xin'an County to Panyu Fucheng? "

"Half a month..."

Someone responded.

"Half a month is too exaggerated!"

Zhu Xi said angrily: "Are you walking? Are you crawling?"

"Ha ha……"

When everyone heard this, they laughed and laughed at the man.

"From Panyu Prefecture to Xin'an County, if you just rely on your feet, it won't take half a month, but seven or eight days will be needed. Of course, if the soldiers march in a hurry, two days and two nights will be enough."

Zhu Xi continued: "Later, I invented the bicycle. Riding a bicycle can take you there in one day. Riding a motorcycle only takes half a day. If you drive a car, one hour is enough. But what if you take a train?"

Everyone was silent.Because no one sat on it.

"It's almost an hour by train!"

Zhu Xi held out a finger, and then said: "Perhaps you may be wondering, since the speed of taking a train is about the same as driving a car, why don't everyone drive a car? Here, an important issue arises... money! You need 1 taels of silver to buy a car, but if you take a train from Xin'an County to Panyu Fucheng, it only costs [-] taels of silver. This is the gap! In addition, you don't need to drive yourself, which is so tiring."

"Of course, people who own cars may think that driving from Xin'an County to Panyu Fucheng is not tiring at all."

"After all, it's just an hour's drive."

"but……"

Zhu Fang was talking eloquently, and once again stretched out his hand to gesture: "What if I asked you to drive from Xin'an County to the capital?"

Now, everyone reacted.

"Drive to the capital?"

"Don't be funny, your ass will be knocked off your feet!"

"The question is, is there a cement road in the capital?"

"..."

Many people said that this kind of thing cannot be done.

It will kill.

The key is still there!

Zhu Feng was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and loudly said into the loudspeaker: "With trains, we can meet your long-distance travel! At present, our railway has been built from Xin'an County to any state capital in Lingnan. In the Ming Dynasty, It has also been built to the capital, passing through Fuzhou, Jianning, Yanping, Shaowu, Xinghua, Quanzhou, Zhangzhou and Tingzhou, as well as various prefectures in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, and as far as Suzhou and Jinling. From now on, everyone can go to these places by train It can be reached in one day! Therefore, the railway will be the lifeblood of transportation in our Ming Dynasty in the future!"

"In the future, if you want to visit relatives or do business, you can take the train."

“You have to take the train too!”

“It’s even possible that you won’t be able to buy tickets during the holidays!”

“However, now everyone can buy package tickets.”

"This is the only chance!"

"If you want to buy tickets, hurry up."

"Tomorrow, I, the King, your Magistrate of Luo County, and the Crown Prince will take the train to Panyu City!"

"At that time, everyone will have an opportunity to ride with me in the car!"

"Moreover, this bus will return to Xin'an County tomorrow!"

"The key is, tomorrow's tickets are all half price!"

"What are you waiting for? Buy your tickets quickly!"

Under Zhu Xi's call, many people were moved.

Riding in the same car with King Qin?

Moreover, there is also the current prince!
This is a rare opportunity!
Probably only once in this life.

Who knows whether King Qin will take the train again in the future?

After all, that is His Highness King Qin!

More and more people are buying tickets.

The ticket window was overcrowded.

Zhu Xi was very satisfied with the result.

It seems that the first shot of this train will be launched tomorrow.

Then Zhu Fang stopped his speech and asked Zhu Biao to go up and say a few words. Then he stepped back and told Luo Min: "Go and tell your cousin that the service on the train must be done well. In addition, the security must be done well." We must hurry up. If anything happens, let him get out! This is the opportunity Luo Hang spent a lot of money to give him, don't let me down!"

"Your Highness, please rest assured!" Luo Min quickly assured.
