Kangxi looked at the black train box with surprise in his eyes, and wanted to go very much in his heart, but the courtiers objected. If he insisted on taking the train, those ministers would kneel on the railway.
"Okay, if you can go to the capital first, there will be a great reward." Kangxi said, very pleased. This old seven can always produce shocking things.
The previous sea ships were big and good; there were also trains with 20 or 30 carriages connected together on the road, which could not only pull a lot of people, but also a lot of goods.
The tenth elder brother took the ninth elder brother and whispered: "Ninth elder brother, let's get on the train too, and we will be rewarded when we arrive in the capital."
"But many people say it's not safe." Brother Jiu hesitated and dared not take the train.
Elder Brother Ten looked at Brother Ninth with disdain, "Brother Ninth, are you stupid? If Brother Seven is so cautious, how could he be in the car if he was in danger? He would not let his wife and children take the train.
Since you dare, it is foolproof. What are you afraid of, let's go. When the railway was built, I also participated in the calculations. Although it was complicated, it was guaranteed. Ninth brother, believe me, you are right. "
Brother Jiu thought about it, and felt that what Lao Shi said made sense, and that Lao Shi was smarter than him. Although he didn't want to admit this, he had to admit it in his heart, "That's okay, let's take the train too."
In the end, not only the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother's family took the train, but also the fourth elder brother Si Fujin and the two legitimate sons got on the train.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" the train started to start, "besides"
The train was moving slowly and loudly, but the speed was getting faster and faster. After a while, the long train carriage was running farther and farther on the track until it became a black spot!
Kangxi smiled, "The train has pulled a lot of people, and there are so many goods. If it is very safe, it will play a huge role in the future."
The elder brother also nodded and said: "Huang Ama, you are right, after the smooth opening of this railway, it will strengthen our control over the grassland."
Kangxi nodded, "Yes, if there is no problem, then promote it."
Kangxi got into the carriage and rushed back to the capital with everyone.
At this time, everyone sitting on the train looked nervous, especially the loud noise outside, which made them panic. But after the train started, they found that the shaking was not violent, but more comfortable than a carriage.
After closing the windows, the noise is also less.
People can not only sit on the train, but also stand, and walk around in the train.
There is a table between the seat and the seat, and a shelf above it for luggage. Of course, their carriage is well furnished and comfortable, and there is a small room for rest in it.
Brother Shi praised, "It's still comfortable to take the train! You can travel day and night, and you can sleep. It's faster and better than a carriage."
Brother Nine also nodded, "I saw that there are so many goods being pulled in the back. If the shipping cost is low, it will be more convenient for the circulation of materials everywhere."
The fourth elder brother understood the meaning of the railway better, and was very happy at this time, "Seventh brother, you have succeeded again."
Shen Bingzhu said modestly: "Although I am the person in charge, this is the result of all the hard work of all the craftsmen. Fourth brother, don't praise me."
The fourth elder brother chuckled, "That is also under your leadership. The grain in the pass can be transported to the grassland. Similarly, the wool and various materials on the grassland can be transported to the pass. In the future, if such trains can spread all over the Qing Dynasty , that would be even better. It¡¯s just that the cost is huge, can you reduce the cost?¡±
Shen Bingzhu nodded, "Yes, I'm working on this, the cost of the next railway will be reduced by half, and it will be even lower in the future."
"Okay, that's great." The fourth elder brother kept praising. It is conceivable that in the future, low-cost train transportation will play an increasingly important role in the future.
In the car, Shen Bingzhu taught his younger brother, nephews and nieces, learned about science, and talked a lot about the train.
The fourth elder brother was drinking tea while looking at Lao Qi who was giving a lecture to the child, lost in thought.
Brother Jiu said while eating melon seeds: "Brother Seven is amazing. He always does things from beginning to end, and he is also patient with children. Now my kid is very fond of science and engineering knowledge. When the time comes, I will specialize in training in this area." Even if he can't catch up with Seventh Brother in the future, he can still excel in a skill."
Elder Brother Ten nodded, "Well, yes, I think the same way. My Pi Xiaozi, if he can be an official, he will be an official. If he can't be an official, he will learn this knowledge. It's very good."
Not only the ninth elder brother, but the tenth elder brother thinks this way, and even the fourth elder brother thinks this way. There are more people in the royal family who think this way.
After all, not everyone can be an official. If the brain is not good enough, the official can only be cannon fodder in the end.
Because of this, Kangxi and the royal family are also actively improving the treatment and positions of science and engineering talents.
? Shen Bingzhu and his party arrived in the capital seven days earlier than Kangxi's party. According to the schedule of Kangxi's itinerary, they were still one-third of the entire journey.
Such efficiency surprised everyone.
After Kangxi returned to the capital, he was also very happy, and gave all the rewards, and set up a railway office under the Ministry of Industry, specializing in railway construction, railway transportation and other aspects.
The industrialization of the Qing Dynasty was developing steadily, and Shen Bingzhu's goal was also realized step by step.
Major national events happen one by one, and there are good and bad things.
Liu Yiyi had just returned to the mansion and began to listen to the reports from the stewards. What happened in the capital during this period of time when they were not in the capital.
After finally dealing with the affairs inside and outside the mansion, and taking a rest, Liu Yiyi received the news that the Eight Fortunes were born.
With Ba Fujin, Liu Yiyi didn't want to get in touch, but just asked: "Are adults and children safe?"
The waiter replied: "Mother and daughter are safe!"
"That's good!" Liu Yiyi didn't take this matter to heart, her relationship with Fujin was not good, and she didn't want to spend too much energy on Fujin.
Liu Yiyi didn't get involved in these things, but Ba Fujin was not happy.
? When Ba Fujin gave birth to a child, he fainted on the spot when he heard that it was a daughter.
She wanted to have a son all the time, and after so much hardship, she had a few miscarriages, but unexpectedly, she only gave birth to a daughter.
After Bafujin woke up, he was still upset and lost his temper. He didn't sit well on his confinement, and he didn't care much about his daughter.
The eighth elder brother had no choice, and then took his daughter to the palace to be raised by Concubine Liang.
In any case, this is his first daughter, very precious.
Ba elder brother is not as angry and sad as Ba Fujin. This time it is a daughter, and next time it may be a son.
Even if the eight blessings can't give birth to a son, it's good to have a daughter. Raise the daughter well, and she will be able to rely on her in the future.
But Bafujin didn't think so. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
