Chapter 149
Everyone laughed.
Mo Na's words indeed voiced the inner thoughts of those people.
Full and satisfied.
Su Han and the others boarded the Merry and headed to Guili Plains.
Except for Lady Ganyu who needed to work at the Yuehai Pavilion.
Everyone else went.
Arriving at Guili Plains again.
Quite a few people had already gathered here, and there were even shops and vendors.
Laboratory area.
Belonged to a special military zone.
Food and water were specially supplied, so there was no need to worry about safety issues.
Hu Tao looked at the bustling streets and said in surprise, "When I came here a few days ago, it was still very quiet, why is it so lively now?"
"Liyue merchants are very keen on grasping business opportunities. When you came last time, Lady Ningguang ordered a blockade.
It has only gradually opened up in the last few days.
Perhaps, in the future, this place will be even more prosperous than Liyue Harbor."
Beside her, Baiwen explained slowly.
The convenience of transportation.
And the existence of the train.
The prosperity of Guili Plains was visible to the naked eye.
Su Han looked at the ores transported over last night and said, "For the first voyage, let's connect this place with The Chasm first. This way, transporting ores will become simple."
"I have already prepared for it, and even the tracks have been built."
"So fast?"
Su Han was somewhat surprised.
He didn't expect Sister Ningguang to have prepared everything already.
At this time, Sister Ningguang took out a map, placed it on the wall, and said, "The route I prepared is from The Chasm, passing through Lingju Pass, Mount Tianheng, and traversing the entrance of Liyue Harbor.
Straight to Guili Plains.
This way the train doesn't conflict, and the route can even allow people from Liyue Harbor to go straight to Guili Plains or even Mondstadt."
Everyone looked at the map.
The red line had already marked the route map.
And the yellow areas were already completed.
The railway had even been built near the Dawn Winery.
Everyone marveled at the speed of the track construction.
Sister Ningguang smiled, "When the plan was determined, I started gathering workers to build the tracks. I don't understand those alchemy and engineering studies.
But there are people in the city who understand tracks.
Anyway, I pay, and those miners from the Mingxing Jewelry who don't have work are very happy to have such a job.
Otherwise, you would think it could drag on for so long."
Originally, the General Affairs Office was paying.
To support these workers with low wages.
However, after seeing the plan was feasible, Sister Ningguang directly took action to recruit workers.
The construction of the railway.
Actually started from that day, with tens of thousands of miners working day and night.
Otherwise, it would really be impossible to achieve such an outrageous result.
And at this time, Su Han also understood.
Why the minerals were not enough.
Because they were all taken by Sister Ningguang to build the railway, so naturally, the minerals were not enough.
Subsequently, they arrived at the factory.
The Rune Steam Engine had already been manufactured.
And installed on the train head.
Sucrose adjusted it for a while and nodded, "It can begin, the train is ready for a test run!"
"Then let's begin, target Liyue Harbor, depart!!!"
Sister Ningguang gave the order.
And the train's starter began to light up.
The Rune Steam Engine uses multiple energy sources.
One can choose to burn coal, or choose to absorb Electro Slimes.
Yes, you read that right.
Making them into batteries, the effect is very good.
Using magic potion alchemy, one can erase the low-level consciousness of the slimes and use them as a storage device...
The bottom of the entire train.
Was densely packed with purple Electro Slimes.
So, there was no need to worry about energy issues.
Accompanied by the roar of the chimney.
The Panda train started.
The speed was about eighty miles.
Because it was a test run, the speed was not too fast.
However, the speed of this train was already very fast for transportation in this era.
The woo-woo little train.
Pulled goods and people toward Liyue Harbor.
Near Mount Tianheng.
A group of merchants sitting in a carriage looked at the steel creation on the ground in the distance and smiled, "Liyue is really rich.
Such good iron, made into this shape and placed on the ground.
Not afraid of being stolen."
A merchant behind him laughed upon hearing this.
"Idiot, this is called a railway... it was built by Lady Ningguang, understand... a while ago, a large number of workers were doing this."
"Railway? What is that... this uneven road, who would walk on it... the carriage wheels would probably break."
The man shook his head, unable to imagine what could walk on this thing.
And the merchant who spoke said, "Actually, I don't understand either, anyway, I heard from those big shots in Liyue that if it can be done well.
One could arrive at Guili Plains from here in an hour."
"What? One hour, are you kidding! Do you think it grew wings and flew..."
The man immediately revealed disbelief.
Normally, it takes half a day to arrive at Guili Plains.
And that's assuming it's not raining.
The weather is clear.
Otherwise, seven or eight hours is very normal.
What could arrive at Guili Plains in one hour, even bragging isn't like this.
The merchant smiled, "Old Han, don't be so serious, I just heard it from those big shots, who knows what that train is... the electric lights from last time.
Didn't they attract a lot of people?"
"That's not the same, Electro Slimes can also provide lighting!"
The man was still arguing.
But at this moment, a strange hiss came from the distance. ===== CHAPTER 151 =====
