Several old men looked at the woman in front of them with squinting eyes.

The clothes he wore were straight, and he also had a unique little hat on his head.

The most important thing is the tube skirt on the lower body, which also exposes half of the white calf!

It must be the work of Fang Zhengyi, this outfit is very similar to the cheongsam.

"Wait, you said we want to take a bus to Taoyuan County?" Li Yansong was the first to react.

Originally, everyone was having a court meeting, but I was deceived into coming here. Now I agreed to test the car, but it ended up in Taoyuan County?

Isn't this a joke? After running there and back for a day, there is nothing left to do.

The other people couldn't help but frown.

The flight attendant was a little confused: "Mr. Fang has indeed arranged it this way. We have prepared casual clothes for you all in the car, which will be delivered to you later. If you need to see Mr. Fang..."

"Go down and follow his arrangements." Li Yansong waved his hand helplessly.

That's all, let's just delay it for one day. After all, His Majesty is also here...

In the VIP compartment, the locomotive cab in front is still busy.

There was also a flight attendant here to report. When she left, Emperor Jing looked at Fang Zheng and said, "Zheng Yi, this woman's clothes are quite revealing, isn't it appropriate?"

Fang Zhengyi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I hired the top craftsmen to design this flight attendant's clothing. It is both beautiful and practical. You may not be used to the new style for a while."

Emperor Jing nodded slightly and continued to look out the window expectantly.

Little did they know that this was all specially arranged by Fang Zhengyi. In the future, flight attendants will definitely be one of the most popular and high-end professions in Dajing.

It is not an exaggeration to say that his status is higher than that of flight attendants in later generations.

Get a trendy uniform and others will imitate it.

As the world progresses, women should dress cooler...

After a while, a plume of smoke began to slowly emerge from the locomotive's chimney.

Then the car body began to vibrate.

Emperor Jing, who felt something strange, had an expression as if facing a formidable enemy, and unconsciously grasped the armrest of the sofa with his right hand.

Although I haven't seen the whole train yet, I can imagine the size of the train when I'm in it.

Such a giant thing will move on its own. What kind of power will it have?

Looking at Li Yuanzhao who was still kneeling on the ground, Emperor Jing said in a deep voice: "Get up, don't wink there!"

Li Yuanzhao stood up with a smile and sat down next to Emperor Jing shamelessly.

As he spoke, the vibrations had already begun to spread to other car bodies.

Li Yansong and others, who had been admiring the window, suddenly saw that the scenery seemed to be slowly retreating, and they immediately exclaimed: "It's moving, the car is moving!"

Zheng Qiao, Zhang Dongxiang and others all looked urgently at the window beside them, and saw that the surrounding scenery began to recede faster and faster until it finally felt like a phantom, and there was a bit of horror in their eyes. .

"It's really moving, but this... this car... how can it be so stable!?"

The rest of the people in the carriage generally had the same reaction. The carriage was noisy, and the emotions were even more intense due to the large number of people.

Many people have already left their seats, trying hard to get close to the glass window and look down, trying to see clearly.

"It's amazing! It's amazing! This speed is as fast as a galloping horse."

"Yes, and there are no bumps at all. This is probably what the rails are for. It would definitely be very bumpy if it were to be replaced by roads."

"It's good, but...how long can it run? Can it really run as far as Taoyuan County?"

The initial fear of the train shaking has been completely overshadowed by excitement and curiosity.

Emperor Jing was completely relaxed at this moment. He leaned on the sofa and stared out the window and murmured: "Zhengyi, this car is going so fast, won't it overturn?"

Fang Zheng smiled secretly in his heart.

quick? In the eyes of ordinary people, this train might be extremely fast, but in his eyes, it was almost infinitely slow.

Compared with electric vehicles, it is simply the new national standard in the train industry.

It's about thirty-five yards per hour, which is faster than normal horse speed.

If a horse runs at full speed, it can reach a speed of sixty or seventy, which is obviously beyond the reach of current trains.

Its biggest advantage is its durability.

However, despite such slow speed, Fang Zhengyi was satisfied. After all, the steam engine directly skipped the improvement stage and went directly to the practical stage.

As for safety issues....

"I have set up a special road protection team to check the railway conditions. Moreover, before the train we took set off, another train was sent on the road to check the road conditions. Your Majesty, you can rest assured."

Emperor Jing breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "What is the principle behind this? Please don't sell it to me."

Fang Zheng pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay, since Your Majesty can't wait to know, I'll just tell you. It's easy to say."

He pointed to the teapot on the table and said: "Your Majesty should know that when you boil water, the boiling steam will lift the lid of the teapot. This is what the train uses to drive the wheels under the car."

"In other words, you can simply imagine the locomotive ahead as a huge kettle."

Emperor Jing was stunned: "Just...that simple?!"

Thousands of thoughts have already flashed through his mind, including magical spells, but the result is just a simple vapor?

Just steam, how can it have such magical power?

Fang Zheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I am just talking briefly, but there is nothing simple about it."

"How to use the power of steam is very complicated, what kind of structural materials should be used, how much pressure should be controlled, how to conduct power... Each of these problems will consume countless manpower and material resources."

"I have to say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has contributed a lot to this!"

"Oh?" Emperor Jing looked sideways.

Li Yuanzhao pretended to be coy and shy.

He learned, he evolved!

Now is the time to show off your merits. Although you feel proud, you must not be arrogant. It is best to show humility.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has participated in the research and development process of the train very early. Many important internal structures and ideas were contributed by His Highness. Without His Highness, I am afraid this train would not have been launched yet." Fang Zheng said with a smile.

Emperor Jing looked at Li Yuanzhao and said calmly: "He is still a useful person and can do something."

Li Yuanzhao sneered at first, and after Emperor Jing cast his murderous gaze, he quickly sat upright.

"Actually, the biggest contributor to this is none other than Your Majesty." Fang Zheng added upon seeing this.

"Me?" Emperor Jing had confusion in his eyes.

"If His Majesty hadn't personally laid the first shovel for the railway, how could today's test run have gone so smoothly? It all depends on His Majesty's wisdom and prowess."

"No problem has been found so far since the railway was opened to traffic. Everything is progressing smoothly. It is enough to prove that it is the work of His Majesty and the protection of the dragon energy!"
