When Tang Mo decided to start manufacturing the 130 transport aircraft, Sofia also saw Copper City. She was shocked by the factories here because she had never seen so many factories in her life.
Standing on an overpass, she overlooked the railway below her: a full 20 rows of rails converged under her feet, extending to places she could not see.
In the distance is a maintenance depot, and further away is a vehicle maintenance factory. There are countless locomotives and carriages waiting for repairs, and railway workers are constantly checking each track and cleaning up the garbage on it.
Every time a diesel locomotive passed by Sophia's feet, she could feel the overpass she was standing on vibrating.
This made her feel very insecure, as if the overpass might collapse and break at any time. So after watching it for a while, she ran away as if running away.
However, the more than 100-meter-wide parallel railway tracks gave her a rough idea of the prosperity of Tongcheng: the world's steel and coal are gathered here, and it definitely lives up to its reputation.
She walked down the stairs of the overpass, frowning because of the acrid smoke. She didn't like the smell here very much, it always made her throat sore.
In the end, even if her feet were on the ground, she could still feel the unsteady shaking - as if something was shaking, as if the earth had life.
There was no earthquake here, nor was there another train passing by. It was just that Sofia had not yet been able to shake off the shock and could still feel the unique rhythm coming from this city.
Copper City is alive. Yes, it is alive.
The machine tools here are always running, and those super huge machines are stretching back and forth all the time.
The crane in the distance is always busy, hoisting huge parts to the location where they are needed. The buildings here are so spectacular, and everything here is filled with the word majesty.
Just like a Soviet city in the 1970s, there are flowers everywhere, dragon flags everywhere, sculptures everywhere, and giant buildings that make people look up at them.
Exciting songs echoed on the radio, and passionate slogans were posted on the telephone poles.
Everyone here is working, laboring, and creating value. The entire city is like a huge machine, working day and night to process raw materials from all over the world into the shapes that others need.
No one even had time to stop and look at Sofia, this incredibly beautiful woman. People here are walking in a hurry, rushing to their destination.
The tram roared past Sofia, packed with shift workers preparing to replace their coworkers. They looked at the city through the car window, recalling in amazement the fleeting glimpse of Sophia's charming face.
Cars one after another drive on the wide streets, and various advertising signs give the place a sense of cyberpunk decadence.
The street lamps here are different from those in Chang'an City: the street lamps in Chang'an are carved with patterns and are as gorgeous as a beautiful woman twisting her waist. The street lamps here are straight and hard, like sharp thorns, dividing the world.
"My lord, if you don't leave, it will be too late. Your flight is scheduled to be scheduled..." the countess reminded softly as she followed Sophia.
Sofia nodded, walked into a cake shop, and chose a fat-looking cream cake inside. She watched the boss carefully put the cake into a beautiful packaging box, then paid and walked out: " Let’s go!”
She wouldn't normally eat this kind of thing, let alone buy it in person. At this moment, Sophia seemed like a comfortable little woman, carrying her own dessert and walking in a strange city.
"Someone just sent the news that a downline in Susas betrayed us. Your card... may have been found by those foxes." The Countess looked at the cake in Sophia's hand and reported a bad news. information.
Sophia comforted calmly: "Don't worry! This kind of thing will happen sooner or later. It's just a card, so their reaction speed shouldn't be that fast."
After taking two steps, Sophia overturned her judgment: "Perhaps they have noticed that those guys are much more sensitive than we thought! They must know that someone is secretly forming a mysterious organization... They must already know .”
"What should we do? Do you want the people below to stop their activities temporarily?" the Countess asked in a panic.
"No need! My dear! No need at all! Just let them observe the prey more so that they don't get mixed into the sand." Sofia answered the Countess' question directly without thinking.
After saying that, she got into the car that had been prepared, and soon the car sped towards the airport.
When Sophia saw the airport in Tongcheng, she regretted not going to Chang'an Airport, which is said to be the best in the world.
Tongcheng Airport is universally recognized as not as spectacular as Chang'an Airport, but after seeing Tongcheng Airport, Sofia was still very envious of having such a beautiful building complex here.
When she took control of Cyric, there was no such thing as an airport, so she didn't have time to build such a beautiful building to benchmark Chang'an Airport.
Although Sofia really wanted to experience the transportation of airplanes, she still had the patience to take the train to Bunas.
Because the safety rates of airlines on the Eastern Continent are somewhat problematic, the plane crash rates of these airlines are still relatively prohibitive for wealthy people of Sofia's level.
The shipping company of Datang Empire is different. Under the constraints of very standardized industry standards, the accident rate of Datang Empire's air transportation is very low, so low that it is almost negligible.
So, Sophia went all the way to Copper City, and finally bought a plane ticket and took a flight that she had never experienced before.
Frankly speaking, she was a little nervous, especially since there were no so-called stewardesses among the crew members in this era: the 47 aircraft was too small and could only transport more than twenty people at a time, and there was no room for stewardesses or food.
Of course, there is no so-called first-class cabin on airplanes these days. Everyone can only sit in the same cabin, complaining about the uncomfortable stools, and being fixed in their seats by unfriendly seat belts.
But everything was worth it. When she saw the cotton-like clouds outside the window, Sofia felt that everything was worth it.
This kind of adventure inspired her inner desire to conquer. She liked this feeling very much, and she liked this unreal feeling of going up and down.
Just as she was looking at the white clouds outside through the porthole, feeling the sense of accomplishment of having the world at her feet, she heard the two people next to her talking about the development of future aircraft.
Obviously both of them are industry insiders in the aviation industry. They know a lot about aircraft and have their own unique opinions.
One person said that the next generation of aircraft should be designed with a separate toilet to make the journey more enjoyable.
Another person suggested that some services should be added to passengers, and they could bring some bread and other things to distribute to passengers.
The conversation between the two of them reminded Sophia of the cake she ate while waiting for the flight. Frankly speaking, she had eaten cakes that were much more delicious than that one, but she still felt that the cake she bought was extra sweet.
Unfortunately, Sofia hadn't heard enough of the conversation between the two people. The plane's radio had already sounded a notification that the destination had been reached.
After all, flying in the sky was fast. Sophia really didn't expect that she would arrive at the right place after observing the wings and the sea of clouds freshly for a while, and listening to the gossip for a while.
Soon the plane landed at the Fengjiang West Bank Airport, where it would be refueled and inspected before taking off again to fly to the capital of the Dahua Empire.
Sofia did not buy a direct ticket to the capital of the Dahua Empire, so she could only get off the plane here, and walked out of the airport runway with a few guards mixed in with the passengers, carrying a small amount of luggage.
Compared to Tongcheng Airport, Dahua Empire's airport seems much shabby. After seeing the airport of the Tang Empire, looking at such an airport is no different from looking at ruins.
But Sophia felt that her breathing was smoother: she seemed to be able to breathe normally here, and she could find her familiar feeling here.
Sure enough, soon an official from the Great China Empire at the immigration office of Fengjiang City Airport took advantage of the situation and started extortion.
The woman who came to pick up Sophia was powerful, making the official of the Great China Empire extremely regretful of his behavior of wanting to eat swan meat.
This is a world where everyone's fist is bigger. As long as you have money and power, you can easily solve any trouble.
Therefore, Sophia has no feeling of fear here, unlike in the Tang Empire, where she has to be careful no matter what she does.
But for some reason, she suddenly missed the moment when she stood on the corner of Chang'an Street and looked at the flower shop in the distance - that was her first time, standing like a girl.
Perhaps, there will never be a next time. With this in mind, she looked at the embankments and fortresses on the other side of the Fengjiang River, and walked into the prosperous Fengjiang City of the Great China Empire.
The streets here are not half as wide as Copper City. Except for the east-west traffic artery that seems to be quite large, the prosperity of this city is simply a hundred times worse than Copper City.
Even if compared to Fengjiang East City on the other side of the river, this place is definitely far different. But everything here is familiar to Sophia, this is the world she used to live in.
So, after taking a deep breath, Sophia got into the car waiting outside the airport: her mentality was extremely relaxed, because this place was more like the territory she controlled; but she had no intention of visiting and just got in. car and went straight to her secret stronghold in the suburbs.
