Mage Joan

"Dr. Vinda, transmission is of course more convenient, but as long as I spare time, I am more willing to choose ordinary people's way of travel. Taking advantage of the opportunity of riding in a car, I can see more, listen to more, and learn more about the general public. Heartfelt voice."

His Majesty the Emperor patiently explained to the young mage why he gave up the more efficient teleportation journey and chose to take the magic train.

"It makes sense!"

Qiao An nodded his head with approval, thinking that governing a country is also a profound and complicated science.

Just as scientific research cannot be done behind closed doors, otherwise it is possible to make jokes about "reinventing the wheel", and political people cannot divorce themselves from the people. The jokes about why not eat meat from the past are all **** negative teaching materials.

When he arrived at the station, Qiao Ante went to the ticket office and found that the window can be used to swipe the cloud card, but most passengers still use cash to buy tickets.

This railway line starts at Fort Collas and extends eastward across the vast wilderness to the terminal "Great Falls" four hundred miles away. The fare is only two silver talers.

Like Qiao'an and Roland, it is of course cost-effective to buy a ticket and sit until the end of the Karon Industrial Zone.

Even those passengers who only took one stop and got off the train, considering that in this cold winter season, taking the train can avoid suffering from freezing, it is still dozens of miles faster than riding a horse or riding a carriage. The road is more cost-effective.

On the first day Qiao An arrived in the Far East, he exchanged a lot of real gold and silver in his pocket for Far East banknotes, handed in four small banknotes worth one silver tal, and the conductor handed out two tickets from the window.

Roland patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "You invited me to take the train. When I arrived at the industrial zone at noon, I would treat you to dinner."

"Are you going to spend money to treat yourself?"

"Stupid brother, have you ever seen an emperor who brought his own wallet when he went out? I'll treat you, you pay, a win-win situation!"

"I have never seen you like this!"

After chatting for a few words, there was a whistle in the distance, and the magic train came into the station.

Today coincided with Sunday, and a large group of passengers in overalls surrounded the platform. They were all blue-collar workers who entered the city on Saturday for the weekend and rushed back to the industrial zone the next day.

Qiao An paid attention when buying tickets just now. These workers don't look like they are very rich, but they hold a cloud card, which should be handled by the factory uniformly. Salaries and bonuses are directly credited into the card.

Qiao An also heard that workers in the Karon Industrial Zone enjoy a benefit. They can take a train to and from the capital and the industrial zone once a week. They don’t need to spend money to buy tickets. The union regularly deposits commuting fees into the cloud card, which is convenient Workers go to town on weekends to visit relatives or take vacations.

There was a turbulent flow of people on the platform, and hundreds of people lined up in front of every car door.

Roland seemed to be afraid that the thin Qiao An would be squeezed into pieces by the five big and three thick workers, spread his arms like an old hen, and protected the young mage on the carriage, seated according to the seat number on the ticket.

Qiao An was sitting next to the car window, and there was a small coffee table fixed to the floor in front of him. He opened the drawer under the coffee table and took a look at it. There was a pack of brand-new paper cups inside.

It’s the first time he saw a cup made of kraft paper when he grew up. He took it out and looked through it curiously, and found that the wall of the cup was quite strong, and a beeswax-like waterproof membrane was attached to the inner layer. It contained boiling water in a short time. It will not melt.

Roland sat on the opposite side of the coffee table, looking at the rare little mage with joy, reminding him that he could go and pour tea.

Qiao An remembered that it was specifically marked on the ticket. The train provided free paper cups and samovars. If you want to drink tea, you can pour yourself. It is said that you can get a piece of sugar!

"Dr. Vader, by the way, pour me a cup of black tea without sugar."

"You have hands and feet, why don't you take a trip by yourself?"

"Nonsense! Which emperor have you ever seen in line to pour tea by himself? Hurry up, or else the tea will be drunk after a while!"

"You really are there, Your Majesty!"

Qiao An angrily picked up two paper cups and followed the crowd to line up at the car samovar.

At this time, a quarrel suddenly came from the front row of the team, which aroused Qiao An's curiosity, and his probe leaned over to watch the excitement.

Four or five young workers in blue overalls were yelling around the conductor in jacket and cap. Some were full of anger, accusing the conductor of being unkind, and others grinning, trying to appease the conductor. Quit your breath and let their little brother go.

The gray-haired conductor had a gloomy face, and his right hand was clutching a brown-haired boy who was also wearing a uniform. His eyes were intertwined with contempt and indignation. Looking at this posture, it seemed that the other party was trying to steal and was caught by him.

"What's the matter with the kid, was he caught stealing from the car?"

Qiao An heard a discussion beside him.

"Hey! Not that, not that the young man is not sensible, and secretly put a few more sugar cubes in the teacup, and was seen by the sharp-eyed old man Luca, so what?"

"Didn't he know that a cup of tea can only add a piece of sugar?"

"The kid came to Colasburg from the countryside only half a month ago. He hasn't taken a few trains even today. He hasn't seen anything in the world. Maybe he thought the sugar on the train was the same as tea. There was no limit. "

"It used to be that way. If you want to add a few lumps of sugar to the tea, just take a few lumps, no one cares."

"That's before, man, this year is down, our factory hasn't paid bonuses for two months, and the railway company has become more and more stingy. These days are really bearable!"

Qiao An listened to people's comments, and as the crowd moved forward, he gradually saw the shameful face of the brown-haired boy with tears in his eyes, and he couldn't help feeling sympathy.

The child seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was reprimanded by the conductor as a thief. He didn't dare to be tough, but he kept bowing and apologizing.

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong... Please don't tell us the director, Mr. Luka Konstantinovich Bulgakov, I will never dare again... I swear I will never dare Up!"

"Boy, you honestly explain, how many times is this?"

"For the first time..."

"lie!"

Old Luca shouted, raised his head like a cockfight, stared angrily, and stuck his finger on the boy's chest.

"Little guy, I noticed you last week! You sneakily added two pieces of candy to the teacup. I think you are young and pitiful, so I just want to open one eye and close one eye and let you go. Forget it."

"But you are fine, you are addicted to take advantage, right? Today, I added three lumps of sugar to the teacup in one breath. I really didn't put my old Luca in his eyes!"

There was a burst of hiss from the crowd watching the lively.

The young man was so embarrassed that he couldn't help the tears in his eyes and cried out in public.
