Chapter 1815 Departure
Chapter 1815 Getting Started
Although it has been a long time since the railway was opened to traffic, the railway station is still bustling and lively.
Although many people have satisfied their curiosity, the reputation of the train has been completely promoted. I don’t know how many people travel to and from Chang’an to Luoyang every day, so the train station is still very popular.
Not only is the railway station very popular, but the inns, restaurants, restaurants and shops around the railway station even become very popular.
A few years ago, it was just a clearing land. Who would have thought that in just one or two years, a lively and popular small town had formed here.
Although the genius had just turned on, the train station had become noisy. Of course, the gate of Chang'an City has just opened, and many people have just left the city. After another half an hour, it will become more lively.
Su Cheng led a huge convoy through the back door of the railway station and entered the railway station directly. The general manager of the railway station was waiting.
"Mr., four carriages have been prepared and can be departed at any time. There are also cars and horses prepared at the Luoyang Railway Station, and you will be destined at any time." The general manager said respectfully.
Su Cheng nodded slightly after hearing this, "Well, I am very relieved when you do your business. By the way, I must keep it confidential when I leave Chang'an by the train today."
The manager was stunned when he heard this. Do you still have to keep it confidential?
Could it be that the Duke left Chang'an because he followed the emperor's will to perform any secret mission?
But the railway station is so big and so lively, and the Duke of the State came with so many cars and horses. How can he keep the secret?
Seeing the embarrassed look on the face of the general manager, Su Cheng smiled and said, "Don't feel embarrassed. Although you are asked to keep the secret, it is not for you! After all, I can't hide it from the ministers in the court if I am not in Chang'an."
After hearing this, the general manager suddenly realized, yes, the Duke of Guo is a powerful official in the court and has attracted much attention. Since the Duke of Guo is not in Chang'an, the ministers in the court will soon notice it.
Hearing that he was not asking him to keep the secret strictly, the manager felt a little relieved and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Gong, the young man has done his best to keep the secret."
Su Cheng nodded with satisfaction and then instructed: "Also, if Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin, Li Chongyi, Fang Yizhi, Qin Huaidao, Li Zhen and others come to take the train, you will refuse, just say that all the cars are already arranged, and they will not be allowed to take the train to Luoyang within at least ten days. Do you understand?"
Stop Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and others from taking the train to Luoyang?
The headmaster immediately took a breath when he heard this. Although he was the headmaster of the railway station, strictly speaking, he was just a servant of the Duke's Mansion. How could he stop Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and the others?
Those are all young masters from the Duke's Mansion. Although they are honest followers in front of the Duke, in Chang'an City, they are all demon kings in the world.
He may not be able to stop any of them, and he even asked him to stop so many young masters at once. The Duke of the State looked down on him too much, right?
Thinking of this, the director could only smile bitterly.
Su Cheng didn't understand why the chief manager smiled bitterly. He smiled and said, "Okay, you don't have to make things so difficult. When you stop him, you just need to bring my name out. Just say that if they dare to make things difficult for you, I will never take them too late in the future. Also, you don't have to be afraid of them, and don't say that you are the person I value. Although you are not a minister in the court, since you are the chief manager of the railway station, you are also famous in front of the emperor, and Cheng Chumo and the others will not do anything to you!"
Hearing this, the chief manager finally felt relieved. He could just move out of the Duke to deal with it. Moreover, the Duke was right. No matter what, he was also a person valued by the Duke. Cheng Chumo and the others would scold him at most, and they thought they would not do anything to him.
Moreover, when he heard the Duke say that he had also named him in front of the emperor, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Although the railway station is not a court yamen, its importance is no less than that of the court yamen.
Moreover, he heard that after the imperial court built the railway, it would set up a special yamen to manage it.
Thinking of this, although he was a servant of the Duke's Mansion, he was similar to the imperial court's official.
The chief manager patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, the villain must stop the young master and the others for half a month and will never let them take the train."
Su Cheng smiled and nodded and said, "It's good that you have this intention. In fact, it's just a little precaution. They may not want to take the train."
The guards acted together and quickly unloaded all the items they accompanied from the carriage and put them into the carriage. Then the guards also boarded the carriage one after another.
Chen Xiao took his maids and carried wooden boxes to a separate carriage.
After giving instructions, Su Cheng also got on the carriage.
Seeing this, the chief supervisor quickly ordered: "Since the Duke has boarded the train, leave immediately!"
With a whistle sound, the train rumbled and slowly drove out of the train station and began to accelerate.
The train station is still bustling with people, but they are used to trains and do not feel novel as before.
Just when Su Cheng took the train and left Chang'an, Wang Shengnan was making tea attentively in the ancestral home of the Wang family in Taiyuan thousands of miles away.
The person who can make Wang Shengnan so attentive is naturally her grandfather, the old man of the Wang family in Taiyuan.
"You girl, you must be so kind. Tell me, what's the matter asking me for?" The old man said angrily while drinking tea beautifully.
Wang Shengnan smiled and said, "Look at what grandpa you said. My granddaughter hasn't been back for a long time. I just want to be filial to you!"
The old man stroked his gray beard and smiled, "Well, it turns out that he wants to be filial. Well, no matter what you ask me for, I will not agree."
After hearing this, Wang Shengnan shook his grandfather's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, how can you do this? You don't love your granddaughter at all! It seems that the granddaughter misses you for nothing!"
"Stop shaking! Don't shaking! I can't bear this old bone! Okay, just say anything if you have anything to do, I'll listen first." The old man said angrily. Although he loved this granddaughter from the bottom of his heart, he also knew that this granddaughter was weird and bold, and he really didn't dare to make any promises rashly.
Wang Shengnan smiled and said, "Grandpa, it's not my granddaughter's own business, but a serious business. As for me, after all, I am the vice president of the Naval Trade Association. I should go to Haizhou to check the fleet. I can't be the boss of the hand-off, right? Otherwise, I, the vice president, wouldn't I be worthy of my name? Grandpa, don't you think?"
The old man couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? Do you want to go to Haizhou?"
