Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1776
The weather was fine and the canal wharf was busy. The bearded man finally arrived in Luoyang with his fleet of boats on the canal.

The journey was very peaceful, although there was a huge amount of gold, silver and jewels escorting him, but the bearded man was not worried at all, who in the world would dare to think about this gold, silver and jewels?
These gold, silver and jewels are not only shared by the emperor, but also by so many princes, princesses, and relatives of the emperor in Chang'an City. Not to mention the green forest robbers of the Tang Dynasty, even Tubo and Turks would not dare to take the idea of ​​​​the gold, silver and jewels .

What a joke, anyone who dares to take away this gold, silver and jewelry will really poke a hornet's nest.

The entire Tang court will unite like never before, and will not stop until all those who robbed the gold, silver and jewels are chopped up.

Of course, the bearded people don't know that Tubo has been destroyed, that Goguryeo has been destroyed, and that the entire Western Regions are trembling and sleepless for fear that the Tang Dynasty will send troops to attack.

Because of this, the bearded man was very relaxed. Now that he has arrived in Luoyang, no one in the whole world would be foolish to come and rob gold, silver and jewels.

The bearded man sat comfortably on the bank, watching his subordinates laboriously lift the heavy boxes one by one and put them on the carriage.

After being away from Luoyang for many years, he really misses it a little bit. He also left many legends in Luoyang back then, and I don't know how many people still remember it now.

When the older generation passes away, I am afraid that not many people will still remember him who was invincible in the world back then.

However, he is not depressed, because his name is destined to go down in history.

Looking at the boxes of gold, silver and jewels, he suddenly felt very ridiculous, no matter whether the emperor or the nobles in the court, he still couldn't see through these vulgar things.

What is the use of more gold, silver and jewelry?

How can there be the joy of cutting the wind and waves at sea?

After escorting the gold and silver to Chang'an, he bid farewell to Su Cheng and set sail again to find the American continent that Su Cheng mentioned.

After several long voyages, he realized that the world is so big and wonderful. If he was trapped in one place, his life would be too boring.

He also knows that exploring the unknown sea route is very dangerous, as the saying goes, the general will inevitably die in battle.

Although with Su Cheng's charts and Su Cheng's navigation manual, his navigation skills have become world-famous, but he dare not say that he will be able to find the American continent smoothly.

Even if the future is uncertain, even if there is danger, so what?
To be buried in the sea is his best destination.

The only thing that makes people feel regretful is that Su Cheng's family can't drink enough wine.

While drinking wine, the bearded man was thinking about the future when he suddenly heard the voices of discussion from the side.

"How are you going to Chang'an?"

"Nonsense, of course it is by train, don't you still want to rent a few horses and ride to Chang'an?"

"Haha, with the train, idiots only ride horses and carriages!"

"I've also heard about the magic of trains. Since you're going from Chang'an to Luoyang, if you don't take the train once, it must be a lifelong regret!"

"Believe me, you will never be disappointed! I took the train when I left Chang'an, and it is definitely more magical than the legends!"

"It takes half a day to travel from Chang'an to Luoyang. Haha, it's unbelievable. I want to see if this train is as fast as the legend says!"

"The part where the train runs is so comfortable to sit on, but it only costs [-] yuan. Everyone wants to take it, but here comes the problem. There are too many people sitting on it, so I'm afraid I won't be able to get a ticket!"

"If you can't get it today, you can get it tomorrow. If you can't get it tomorrow, you can get it the day after tomorrow. If you can't get it the day after tomorrow, you can get it the day after tomorrow. I don't believe you can't get it."

"That's true. Anyway, there are inns and restaurants near the train station, so you can grab them sooner or later!"

"Just wait until the second railway is built, and it will run around the clock, so you don't have to worry about not being able to get tickets!"

The bearded man was dumbfounded, what the hell is a train?

A car on fire?
Although he didn't understand what the train was, he did understand one thing. It only took half a day for the train to travel from Chang'an to Luoyang.

What are you kidding?Running eight hundred miles in half a day?

Flying is not so fast!
The bearded man thought it was ridiculous when he heard it. Could it be that these two are bragging?

But, it didn't look like it either, the bearded man stared blankly at the two people who had gone away, wondering if he was hallucinating.

"Go, go, go, go, go, today is double day, there is a train from Luoyang to Chang'an, if you are late, you will miss it!"

"Quick, quick, speed up!"

Just when the bearded man was doubting his life, he suddenly heard someone mention the train again.

Now the bearded man no longer doubts, he thinks that the train thing is probably true.

However, he couldn't figure out how the train could run from Chang'an to Luoyang in only half a day.

Just when he wanted to ask that person, he realized that he had already hurried away.

Who should I ask?It suddenly occurred to the bearded man that since everyone knew about the train, everyone on the wharf must know about it.

The bearded man swept his eyes away and said with a smile: "My brother, when I came to Chang'an for the first time, I heard someone say that it only takes half a day to go to Chang'an by train. What is this train?"

"This hero may not come to Chang'an for a long time, but he doesn't even know about the train! Haha, this train has been famous in Chang'an and Luoyang recently, attracting the attention of the world."

"This train is a miracle created by Duke Rong painstakingly. After laying the rails, the train only needs to burn charcoal to move forward without rest. It can carry thousands of people and travel thousands of miles in a day."

The bearded man was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Can it carry thousands of people? Thousands of miles in one day? How is this possible?"

"Does it sound unbelievable? At first, when Rong Guogong said that, no one believed it, not even the emperor, but the facts speak louder than words. Now I don't know how many people have taken the train. Doubt it!"

"It turned out to be true!" the bearded man was shocked, his face full of disbelief.

When he was young, he traveled across the world, experienced countless things, and later went to sea, thinking that there was nothing in this world that could shock him.

However, today, he was so shocked that he paled.

However, thinking that the train was made by Su Cheng, he didn't seem to find it so difficult to accept.

"Mr. Rong, you are really capable of what people can't do!" Qiubeard said with emotion.

"That's right, Duke Rong is the star of Wenqu. There is probably nothing in this world that he can't do." The people next to him echoed.

Every time he comes to Chang'an, Su Cheng seems to be able to scare him, it's amazing, the bearded man sighed in his heart.
