Chapter 180 CLXXIX. Pioneers

[Aramaic Weekly, 1292/15/10. 】

[The first train of the much-anticipated trial operation of the passenger train has successfully arrived at the station. I would like to thank the Dragon Lord for the changes led by it. Our reporter interviewed some passengers to see how they felt. 】

Reporter: Bachelor Lawrence, how was your experience?

Lawrence: Well, new modes of transportation should be vigorously promoted and modern awareness should be raised. In terms of transportation safety, they should also be resolutely implemented and thoroughly implemented. High standards should always be adhered to, constantly tempered, and constantly improved.

Reporter: As expected of a Grand Bachelor of the Privy Council, his speech is really profound. So what does Prince Yevgeny think of this trip?

Yevgeny: I am very satisfied. I have nothing to say about food and lodging, and it is very fast. I believe that the day when it will be available to all people will come soon.

[The above is this short news report. For more news about the trial operation and the second flight, please purchase the next issue of the weekly. 】

[Aramaic Weekly, 1292/15/12. 】

[The trial operation of the train is in full swing, and our reporters have been following the reports. Let's take a look at the evaluation of the officers returning from the military frontier. 】

Reporter: What do you think of this return train schedule?

Crocodile Island: Very good.

Reporter: The Commander-in-Chief speaks so simply and neatly.

[The trial operation is progressing smoothly. The third train will leave tomorrow, and then there will be the last two trains that are highly anticipated. Who are the lucky ones who have won the spots? 】

…

It’s already the 13th day of the 15th month.

On the edge of the outskirts of the imperial capital of Aram, the starting point and platform of the passenger train.

Mu Ran's face was rosy, he was proud of the spring breeze, his hair was shiny and smooth, and he was reading the newspaper. The content edited by the newspaper was very close to the people.

Because all the construction funds currently injected have to be returned through blood transfusions from the people of Yalan.

"Once these two days are over, we can start working on other projects."

Mu Ran said calmly to the other four people.

For the first three trips, the cars were full of nobles. As a member of the train committee, you must be present, establish contacts, and become familiar with each other, so that various things can be carried out easily.

As for the last two trips, those lucky people who won the lottery tickets did not need to spend any time, but they must have sold their places to other big players at high prices. There is nothing to say.

Everything went smoothly.

Mu Ran put down the newspaper and folded it, leaning on his cane. People were coming and going on the platform filled with religious elements, but all of them were elegantly dressed gentlemen. The women were even competing with each other on their jewelry, and they were all wearing Dugeli. High-end clothes from fashion designers, earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets are all treasures. Everything on a woman is probably worth two to three hundred gold dragons.

There are already carriages for dinner parties and water bars. The nobles held tea parties together, and it was not new to compete in cupping.

Everyone has a full queue, and their luggage is carried by servants with upright features and elegant manners. They are all strolling around with their clothes and showing too much curiosity.

After all, the magic energy industry has already appeared, and the reason why the train can operate is only because it has found cheap power that can be used for a long time.

Mu Ran and Li Site came from the same place and were extremely smooth in doing things.

Beautifully packaged gift bags were prepared for each passenger, and the flight attendants selected by Mu Ran must all be beautiful women in their prime, and asked them to hand them out, containing special-grade tobacco and tea, as a token of appreciation.

Coming out of the place rolled up into a Mobius strip, Mu Ran's handling of interpersonal relationships has a dimension-reducing impact on the Western Continent.

Even the last wave of nobles have no need to get close to William and his ilk.

There are generally two types of nobles in Syria.

One type is the old Aramaic nobles who came after the emperor founded the country and the power was shuffled.

The first type is the war meritorious faction on the emperor's side, who are also the main members of the royal court.

Most of the people here are the latter, but none of these people have military power.

The emperor commends talents. In addition, the newly awarded honors are all military officers and nobles. Unless they reach a very high level in knowledge, they will not be awarded honors.

However, the emperor will not confer honors in person. With very few exceptions, more than 99% of new nobles are conferred honors, and there are dedicated civilian officials responsible for this matter.

Sometimes titles are not linked to power. It is not uncommon for an earl who works in the royal court to have more power than a duke.

Mu Ran asked the flight attendant to count the passengers. The train was expected to depart at ten o'clock in the morning, and it would be arriving soon. These nobles were very valuable, and it was impossible for them to get up early.

However, considering that some lords like to be late, the time can be postponed by ten minutes appropriately, otherwise it will also cause dissatisfaction among the other nobles.

Of course, just three buses cannot accommodate all the high-end nobles in Yalan. Either they are too busy and bored to do anything, or nobles who really need transportation come here to try something new.

With the knowledge of the nobles here, there is no need to get excited about new things and change their schedule.

Of course, there were still a lot of people. Mu Ran looked at the list. Including the entourage, there were about four hundred people. Old Lord Alan just had money and leisure.

There may be another two to three hundred people on the next site.

Excluding the entourage, there are only about two hundred people who may have titles.

After the maintenance staff counted the carriages, they found that they were almost gone, with only a dozen nobles left.

"Well... let's wait a little longer. Let's get the train off at ten-ten. If you ask someone to inform you, you can't just say it's because the other passengers haven't arrived. Just ask for good luck. Then go to the warehouse car at the end and get some. Send a gift to express my apology.”

Mu Ran gave the order, this is the last bus, there should be no problem.

The maintenance staff nodded and executed immediately.

Mo Yutong stared at Mu Ran coldly from the side. Mu Ran did everything right. Is it possible that he found out that he was secretly letting those people go, but didn't point it out?

Because he needs his own help.

Although Mo Yutong was not as recognized as a genius like Mu Ran in school, he was still a god of learning, and there were some things that Mu Ran couldn't handle alone.

The other three people also helped him.

Sensing Mo Yutong's gaze, Mu Ran glanced at it and didn't care. He focused on an old man with gray temples holding a suitcase. He boarded the train slowly.

For such a large project, it is impossible for the Royal Court of Yalan to give full authority to Mu Ran. The train conductor was appointed by the Royal Court. Although this old man did not know any relevant knowledge or operations and just sat in the captain's cabin, he was also the conductor.

Is it used to monitor yourself?

Mu Ran's face was as gloomy as water. He was hiding in the wild and hiding in the court. The warlock who hunted down many planes ten years ago was the latter.

But in the royal court of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there are not no enemies.

After waiting for another ten minutes.

All passengers have boarded the train and it's time to set off.

Mu Ran looked at the scenery on the glass dome. The warm winter sun was shining down, which was a good sign.

After the clergy of the Eternal Sect chanted a hymn in praise of the Dragon Lord, Mu Ran boarded the front of the train. He personally took charge of the dispatching and commanding, and at the same time all the carriage doors were closed.

The steam boiler starts to preheat.

With the noise reduction magic equipment, the train is very quiet while driving.

As thick smoke billowed from the chimney, the wheels and axles rotated rapidly amid the low hum of the train.

"Pioneer".

Driving on the rails, heading towards Dawn Harbor.
