The third prince Zhao Feng looked around, and he found it very strange, because there were no beggars in this city, normally there would be creatures like beggars in every city.

The more prosperous the city, the more beggars there will be.

Even in an empire like the Kingdom of Treasures, there would be countless homeless people and beggars on the streets.

But now he looked around, but he couldn't find a beggar on the street, which was very strange.

"You are from other countries in 5.0, you seem to be ignorant."

At this moment, a resident of the Tang Kingdom spotted Zhao Feng and the others on the street, with a disdainful look on his face: "Don't you know? Begging is illegal in the Tang Kingdom. Anyone who dares to beg will be arrested and sent to build the railway." What? !

Hearing this, the popularity of a group of Treasure Kingdoms has gone bad. How dare a small country with few people dare to despise them for their ignorance? It is really intolerable.

They are from the great country of treasures, why do they look down on themselves so much, and regard themselves as residents of the kingdom of heaven, and they look like ignorant people in the countryside, which is extremely hateful.

But the third prince, Zhao Feng, still stopped his subordinates. After all, they came to inquire about Tang's intelligence, so they couldn't cause a huge commotion here. .

Chapter 73 An epoch-making means of transportation: Tang State Railway!

"This country is too domineering and arrogant. It doesn't even allow begging. Don't you want to give life to the homeless?" Some people gritted their teeth and felt that the Tang Dynasty was simply a cruel country, and even beggars were not allowed to exist. , It's really disgusting to try my best to modify Taiping.

"You guys know shit."

The Tang resident looked at this group of people with contempt: "As long as you have hands and feet, no one will starve to death in Tang. Let them build the railway, but give them a chance to work, you know? All kinds of infrastructure projects, you can find a job casually, and it is impossible to starve to death."

"Impossible, what are you kidding, do you mean that there is no starvation to death in Tang country now?" Everyone was shocked when these words came out.

After all, even if it is a powerful country of treasures, it dare not say that its own country will not starve to death.

Because occasionally there will be natural and man-made disasters, such as floods, droughts, plagues and other disasters. Once these disasters occur, it is unknown how many people will be displaced and corpses will be scattered everywhere.

But now Tang Guo actually doesn't know how to starve to death in 05, this is not a joke, or something.

"I'm not joking, because this is a gift from the gods. The gods have given us the god rice, so that we can avoid famine and never need to go hungry."

When the residents of the Tang Kingdom talked about the gods, they immediately showed a pious expression. After all, no matter how much they revered the gods who solved the famine in the Tang Kingdom, it was not an exaggeration.

God? !

Everyone's eyes flickered. To be honest, they had heard some information about Tang before they came to Tang. Tang claimed to be a country of gods, a country blessed by ancient gods.

But they didn't believe it very much, thinking that the Lord of the Tang Kingdom must be bragging, how could there be such creatures as ancient gods in this world.

So it must be some kind of special world props that made this happen in Tang country.

But no matter what the truth is, it is certain that the Tang State has amazing financial resources. The ability to keep 200 billion people from starving is enough to make the country of treasures greedy.

If they can snatch such world props, then the national power of the country of treasures may reach a new level.

"What the hell did you mean by railway?"

The third prince, Zhao Feng, suddenly noticed the strange term that the old man uttered. It was the first time he had heard of railways, which made him very curious.

"Haha, this is the first time you have come to the Tang Dynasty. It is normal to not know about the railway. It is now the main means of transportation in our Tang Dynasty. We basically go to the station, take a carriage, and go to major cities in the country." The old man stroked his gray beard and smiled slightly.

"Why do railroads need to be built to ride horse-drawn carriages?"

A group of people looked confused.

After all, according to their understanding, the so-called carriage is a horse pulling a cart, running continuously on the road, but there is no need to build any railways, ordinary dirt roads are enough.

"Here, the station is right in front of you. Go and have a look and you'll know what's going on."

The old man enthusiastically led everyone to the station ahead.

what? !

The third prince, Zhao Feng, and others quickly went to the station in Heihe City, and immediately they saw a huge building appearing in front of them.

There seemed to be tens of thousands of people coming in and out at any given moment.

At the same time, goods from all over the place gathered in this place. It was not only the center where people gathered, but also the center where goods gathered. It could be called the busiest and busiest place in Heihe City.

Immediately, they saw a road in front of them that was basically made of steel, stretching straight into the distance, with no end in sight.

And on this steel road, there is a strange object standing impressively. It is made up of carriages one by one. There are at least a dozen carriages. It looks like a black snake.

The head of these carriages is a huge steed, the whole body is red, as if it is condensed by flames, and from time to time, fire will rise from its nostrils, making a whining sound.

Numerous passengers, dragging their luggage, got on and off these carriages.

Even these strange carriages are not as simple as just one, but there are more than a dozen of them standing side by side at the same time, which looks extremely amazing and completely shocked Zhao Feng and others.

"Is this a carriage?"

Zhao Feng and the others were stunned. When had they ever seen such a vehicle, it was simply unheard of.

"That's right, this is our Tang country's special means of transportation - the carriage."

The old man proudly said: "Don't look at it as ordinary, but it can reach a speed of [-] kilometers per hour. If it goes full speed, it can even reach [-] kilometers, but most of the time it is moving at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour.

It is [-] kilometers from Heihe City to the capital Chang'an, but if you run day and night, it will probably take one and a half days to arrive. "

what? !

As soon as these words came out, the third prince, Zhao Feng, and the others were even more shocked. They couldn't believe what they heard, that the distance of [-] kilometers could only be reached in one and a half days. Exaggerated.

It was so exaggerated that they couldn't believe the old man's words, and even thought that the other party was bragging.

But when they saw the old man's serious face, they knew that the other party was not lying.

"Just kidding, if it is such a fast speed, if it is to transport soldiers, wouldn't it mean that one and a half days can be rushed from the capital to the most border city? Even if there is any turmoil in the border city, there will be a large number of reinforcements quickly When it arrives, it can be suppressed in an instant."

Someone saw a military use for these railroads.

To know why it is so difficult to rule a huge empire, it is because the territory is too vast, which makes the troops scattered. In this way, if there is a rebellion in a certain place, it is difficult for the central army to appear and rescue in time.

Without this railway, it would probably take at least several months, or even a year, to arrive.

After all, the army is also human and needs rest.

Moreover, the army needs to carry all kinds of logistics when traveling, which will naturally slow down the marching speed.

But now the appearance of the carriage and the appearance of the railway have changed everything. All the soldiers and logistics materials can be transported to the carriage, and they can be directly pulled to another place in a day and a half, and the soldiers will not be tired.

There is no doubt that this is definitely an epoch-making mode of transportation.

If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe that there is such a means of transportation in the world. .

Chapter 74 The Railway Map of Tang Country, This is the Foundation of the Super Empire!

"No, no, it's not just for military use. It has unimaginable benefits for promoting the domestic economy, transportation, and the circulation of goods." The third prince, Zhao Feng, could see at a glance that the appearance of the carriage would affect the entire country's economy. What a benefit.

For example, transporting food.

After all, the country's land area is too large. Famines occur in some places, while grain harvests occur in other places. At this time, the grain from this place can be transported to another place.

If there is no carriage, it may take at least several months to arrive. There is no way to know how much food will be lost on the way, and the price will increase many times.

But if there is a horse-drawn carriage, all the supplies can be transported to all parts of the country in a day or two.

It can be said that whether it is commodity trade, goods circulation, or disaster relief, the appearance of horse-drawn carriages has completely changed the way the entire country travels, and it is of great benefit to the entire country. "Grandpa, do you know how many similar railway Tang countries are there?" Third Prince Zhao Feng asked curiously.

"There is a domestic railway map on the bulletin board in front. You can check it out yourself, because it doesn't take long to build railways, only ten years. So far, only large cities can communicate with each other. It is said that the Lord has already ordered , In the next 20 years, we will realize city-to-city connectivity, that is, every city must connect to each other by railway.”

The old man stroked his gray beard very proudly.

what? !

Everyone stepped forward, and immediately saw a huge railway map presented in front of them, and saw the huge territory of the entire Tang Kingdom come into view, and one city after another appeared on it, densely packed.

At the same time, one railway after another criss-crossed and ran through major cities.

Seeing such a scene, they couldn't help but suffocate. "It's too tight, it's really too tight."

One of his subordinates was shocked: "These railways are criss-crossed and densely packed, and they have already spread all over the entire territory of Tang Kingdom. It only takes a day or two to reach another city from any part of Tang Kingdom." "It's too exaggerated. These railways are simply It’s like dog chains completely locking every city, making these cities lose the possibility of rebellion.”

"Isn't it? The Lord of the Tang Kingdom has firmly grasped all the cities in the entire country. Whoever dares to betray, immediately set off from the railway, arrive within two days, and put down the rebellion in an instant." "Where the railway can reach, That is the territory of the Tang Kingdom."

Many of the subordinates are not idiots, they are all people who have been carefully selected to inquire about information, so naturally they can see the importance of these railways at a glance.

This is simply the foundation of an empire. With these railways, a country's war potential is rising exponentially.

And at this moment, they seemed to see a huge war machine-like empire.

Just a railway map made them shudder, and immediately raised Tang's evaluation by several levels. "Your Highness, this Tang Kingdom is not simple. It has the power to threaten my kingdom of treasures. It should not be underestimated."

One of his subordinates transmitted a voice secretly, with a very serious expression on his face.

At this time, the ease at the beginning has long since disappeared, replaced by incomparable prudence.

"Of course I know this kind of thing. It is indeed correct to come to the Tang country to inquire about information. It is not as simple as imagined that this country can destroy the country of Thunder."

The third prince Zhao Feng nodded.

"However, Your Highness, in fact, we can emulate the carriages of the Tang Kingdom, and we can also build the same railway in the Kingdom of Treasures, so that every city in the entire country can be connected to each other."

A hand lowered his voice.

To be honest, he has long been fed up with the long journey in the kingdom of treasures, from one place to another, the shortest time is a few days, the longest is several months or even years.

For example, when they came to the country of Tang from the capital of the country of treasures, they traveled long distances for several months and spent a lot of hard work, not to mention how hard it was.

If the country of treasures also has a railway, then the transportation environment of the whole country will be much better, and they can travel around in various cities of the country.

"How can it be so simple."

Third Prince Zhao Feng shook his head: "For example, the focus of these carriages is not the carriages, but the fiery horses at the front. It is precisely because of this special magical creature that this carriage can reach a speed of [-] kilometers per hour.

The problem is that we don't know how to breed this kind of fire horse, nor how to breed it. We once got some fire horses, but we raised them to death soon. "

He was very helpless, because raising magical animals was not as simple as he imagined.

Every magical animal has its own hobbies and habits, as well as its favorite food. If it is not raised correctly, it will be raised to death.

Moreover, not every kind of magical animal can be raised by humans. Some magical animals are not born to obey human orders. Once they are ordered, the magical animals will go crazy and cause serious losses to humans.

Only the book of wisdom, which has recorded a lot of knowledge about magical animals, knows how to raise fire horses, and even breed fire horses.

It's like ancient glass.

Regardless of the fact that glass is an industrial product now, a bunch can be made casually, but in ancient times, glass was an item comparable to gems.

Before the manufacturing process of glass is exposed, glass is a luxury and can be sold at sky-high prices.

And this secret has been kept for hundreds of years without leaking.

The same is true now.

The way they want the Kingdom of Treasures to raise fire horses is probably not as simple as they imagined. This must be top secret news from the Tang Kingdom, and outsiders are not allowed to spy on it.

""What's wrong?Why don't you buy a ticket? Is it because you think the speed of the carriage (Zhao Nuo's) is too slow and you don't want to take it? "

At this time, the old man next to him looked at the third prince Zhao Feng and others curiously.

too slow?donkey!

Hearing this, the third prince, Zhao Feng, and others were speechless. What kind of brain circuit is this old man? He can cross [-] kilometers in just one and a half days. Who would dislike the slow speed?

"Of course, if you think the speed is too slow, you can actually take the sky bird. The speed is faster than the carriage, but the price is a bit more expensive, at least ten times more expensive."

The old man held out a finger.

"Bird in the sky? Could it be that besides the carriage, there are other means of transportation in the Tang Kingdom? And it's faster?" The third prince, Zhao Feng, was stunned.

He used to have a horse-drawn carriage as a means of transportation in the Tang Kingdom, but now he heard that there was a faster means of transportation.

This made everyone dumbfounded and couldn't believe it. .

Chapter 75 The overlord of the sky, the sky bird, the transportation in the sky of Tang Kingdom

"Of course there is."

The old man smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "Our country of Tang also breeds a large bird called Sky Bird. It can carry [-] passengers at a time, and the speed exceeds [-] kilometers per hour. It is a horse-drawn carriage. Five times the speed. If you take the sky bird, it will only take seven or eight hours to arrive."

As soon as these words came out, the third prince, Zhao Feng, and others were completely stunned. They couldn't believe it. These stations alone were enough to frighten them, and they were fast enough as a means of transportation.

But now, there is actually a faster means of transportation in the Tang Kingdom - the sky bird, and it can carry [-] passengers at a time, which is really too exaggerated.

It is obviously a distance of [-] kilometers, but now it can be reached in seven or eight hours, which is really frighteningly fast.

If it is relying on human beings to travel by themselves, such a long time may not be able to arrive after spending several years.
