Chapter 1850 Plan

Chapter 1850 Plan

Wang Shengnan and Jin Shengman sat together and spoke in a low voice, the scene was very harmonious.

Su Cheng was still sitting on the sofa by the window in his arms. The little guy jumped excitedly and screamed.

The train finally drove out of the train station and then started to speed up.

The train ran faster and faster, and the scenery outside the window kept retreating, and the little guy was so excited that he collapsed and jumped.

"Can you take the train?" Su Cheng was also very happy to see it.

Su Changan nodded repeatedly and said, "It's fun, so fun. I'll take the train in the future."

Jin Shengman looked at the trees that were constantly retreating outside the window and silently estimated the speed.

"The speed should not be slower than horses now, right?" Jin Shengman asked in surprise.

Wang Shengnan smiled and nodded and said, "Well, the speed that a train can reach is 200 miles per hour, and it is difficult for ordinary horses to reach this speed. What's more important is long-lasting. The train can maintain this speed and run."

"Although a good horse can exceed this speed, it can't last long and it takes a long time to rest. This is the most powerful thing about the train."

"It's not just the speed, but also the load capacity is much stronger than the war horses and carriages. Because of this, the train caused a sensation as soon as it appeared, which simply subverted the world's perception."

The train was speeding, and the scenery outside the window was retreating. Only when he sat on the train did Jin Shengman truly realize the extraordinaryness of the train.

She was very excited, unprecedentedly excited.

What she has always been most worried about is that Silla is too far from Chang'an, and she will inherit the position of queen in the future, and it is destined to be impossible to stay away from Silla for a long time.

But the appearance of the train gave her another hope. If the train leads to Silla, it will no longer be difficult for her or her children to come to Chang'an from now on.

Thousands of mountains and rivers are no longer obstacles.

Even Su Cheng might take the train to Silla to see them and their mother and son.

Jin Shengman leaned forward and asked with concern: "When will the railway be built to Liaodong? Can we have a train in Silla?"

Su Cheng could understand Jin Shengman's expectation, but he had to pour a basin of cold water on her.

Railways were very important to the Tang Dynasty. Both the emperor and the ministers in the court attached great importance to it. But to the court, is Liaodong important?

Of course it is also very important, but it is not that important. Moreover, Liaodong is remote and has little contact with other places, so the demand for railways is not that high.

Therefore, Liaodong will definitely be at a lower priority in building railways.

Su Cheng pondered: "The railway will definitely be built to Liaodong. There is no doubt that this is because His Majesty and all officials in the court have a consensus, that is, they must use railways to connect all places."

Jin Shengman immediately showed joy on his face: "That's great!"

Su Cheng sighed lightly: "Don't be too happy too early. Building a railway is a big project. Now the two railways that the imperial court has determined are centered on Chang'an, one running through the east and west, and the other running through the north and south. Some lines have been determined. We must first build the railway from Chang'an to the south, and we can only reach Zhuojun in the north for the time being. Therefore, we need to build the railway to Liaodong, but we don't know when."

After hearing this, Jin Shengman wanted to say that it was not disappointed. She also understood that from the perspective of the monarch and minister of the Tang Dynasty, there was no problem with this decision.

She also understood that the result was the will of the entire country. Even Su Cheng could not change it, and he could not let the court build a railway to Silla now.

Not to mention Su Cheng, even the emperor could not do it.

Disappointment is disappointment, but disappointment is not despair, because there is still hope, the court will eventually build a railway to Liaodong, because this deepens the connection between Liaodong and the Central Plains, which will help Liaodong to return to its heart.

Jin Shengman whispered: "No matter what, the railway will always lead to Liaodong, right?"

Su Cheng nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, and the speed of the train will continue to increase. One day, the train can travel thousands of miles a day."

Travel thousands of miles a day?

Jin Shengman opened his mouth slightly, looking shocked.

What is the concept of traveling thousands of miles a day?

Wouldn't that mean it only takes her one day to come to Chang'an?

How many miles can I walk in a carriage?

It's just dozens of miles.

Not to mention Kim Seung-man, even Wang Seung-nam was shocked when she heard this.

I travel thousands of miles a day, and I can’t even think about it, and I can’t even think about it. Is that a fog flying through the clouds?

Wang Shengnan imagined: "I really don't dare to think about traveling thousands of miles a day, but I am very much looking forward to the day when the railway blooms everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. With the train, you can enjoy the famous mountains and rivers and scenic spots at that time. It's very interesting to think about it."

Jin Shengman nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, in fact, many of us in Silla admire the Tang Dynasty, and are full of curiosity and yearning for the Tang Dynasty. Many people want to come to the Tang Dynasty to see it, but the distance is too far, and the road is not peaceful."

The two of them whispered and gossiped about the gossip. The little guy was so excited at first, but when it was eaten and it got darker, the little guy began to feel sleepy and slept soundly on Su Cheng's legs.

Wang Shengnan was also leaning on the sofa and confused, but Jin Shengman was not sleepy at all. Although she was very tired after rushing for a day, she saw the person she was thinking about day and night, as if she was full of fatigue.

Jin Shengman gently stood up and sat down beside Su Cheng, looking at Su Cheng and the little guy who was sleeping soundly on Su Cheng's legs, his eyes full of tenderness.

"I've been taking care of the children all the way, thank you for your hard work." Su Cheng said softly.

Jin Shengman shook his head slightly and said softly: "No, I didn't feel it hard at all. In fact, he was quite obedient all the way. Although he was bored and tired all the time, he could be patient when he told him that he was going to meet his father."

Su Cheng felt very warm when he heard this, and smiled and said, "When I arrive in Chang'an, I will take him around to play."

Jin Shengman smiled and said, "Then he must be happy."

"By the way, your sister is in good health, right?" Su Cheng asked with concern.

Jin Shengman nodded and said, "My sister is in good health."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Then you don't rush to go back. Stay in Chang'an for a few more years and let Yu'er enlighten him. I will teach him more. Maybe the railway you can return to is already connected to Liaodong."

Jin Shengman asked expectantly: "Is it that fast?"

Su Cheng explained: "Technology is the primary productive force, but the matter is due to humans."

"Can we have trains in Silla in the future?" Jin Shengman asked.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, the steam engine is actually not complicated. It will spread in a few years. When the railway is built in Liaodong, Silla can develop the railway along with it."
