Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1731, super hot

"Sell newspaper~sell newspaper!"

"Daming Long-distance Automobile Firm will officially start operation on the sixth day of June in the [-]th year of Hongzhi. According to reports, you only need to spend a small amount of money to experience the speed and convenience of the car."

"The first operating route is from Beijing to Tianjin. Customers need to go to the bus station to buy a bus ticket, and take the bus with the ticket. The car can also carry gifts or goods that do not exceed 30 kilograms."

With the beginning of a new day, the newspaper boys in the streets and alleys of the Beijing-Tianjin area began to yell continuously.

The news headline today is that the Daming Long-distance Automobile Firm will soon be officially in operation and operation. According to reports, you only need to spend the price of a ticket to experience a car that can only be afforded by thousands of taels of silver.

As soon as the news came out, all the old and young men in the entire Beijing-Tianjin area began to talk about it.

"What exactly does this Daming Coach Company do? Why can't you understand it?"

"It's actually similar to a car and horse shop. From Tianjin to the capital, you can come by train or take a four-wheeled carriage from the car and horse shop. Now it's just another car, and you can also travel by car. "

"So that's the case. In this way, isn't there another choice, which can be more convenient?"

"That's not true~"

"The speed of this car is very fast. I didn't see those sons driving around on the main road every day. The speed is very fast."

"I heard that this car costs several thousand taels of silver."

"Isn't it? It costs more than 6000 taels for a car and a few houses. Most people really can't afford it."

"I've heard people say that this car is very comfortable to sit in, and it won't be cold even in the middle of winter."

"I've also heard about this car. It's very fast. It takes two hours to travel between Beijing and Tianjin. It's like flying when you walk in on the road."

"It's a pity, we ordinary people can't afford a car, and we don't know what this car is like. Compared with the sedan chair of the official, which one is more comfortable, the sedan chair of the official did not cost a few silver. More than 6000 taels of silver, this car is probably made of gold."

"Now it's time to sit down and try it out, buy a ticket and experience it."

"Yes, yes, I must try it. I just want to go to Tianjin."

"Together, together, I also want to go to Tianjin. I plan to sell some stocks and come back to buy two houses in Dongcheng District."

"."

It is not yet the sixth day of June at the Xincheng Coach Terminal in the southern district of Beijing, but as the news was reported by the Ming Morning Post, a large number of people soon came to the bus station and asked in detail about the long-distance bus A few things about the car to come.

"How much is the ticket to Tianjin?"

"It costs 500 renminbi per person. Children under one meter in height can ride for free, but there is no separate seat. You have to sit in a seat with an adult in your arms."

"500 Wen per person, it's too expensive, why don't you go grab the money."

"I can't help it. A car costs several thousand taels of silver. 500 Wen is already very cheap."

"It's too expensive, too expensive, and I can't afford it. It costs less than 100 yuan to go to Tianjin in a four-wheeled carriage, and it's only 200 yuan to take a train. It's too dark for you to take 500 yuan by car. gone."

"Our fare is a bit more expensive, but our speed is very fast. It only takes 2 hours from Beijing to Tianjin."

"If you take a carriage, it will take you a day to get there."

"It's still too expensive, too expensive to sit on."

"What time does this bus leave, and how many times a day?"

"Our car departs every half an hour, from eight o'clock in the morning to five o'clock in the afternoon."

"The ticket price of 500 Wen is indeed a little expensive, but it is reasonable to take a car. Give me three tickets to Tianjin at [-] o'clock in early June."

"Okay~"

"Are your cars the same as those in Beijing now?"

"Of course there are some differences. Our cars are specially used for carrying passengers. They are longer and bigger, but they are all produced by the Mercedes-Benz Automobile Factory. In essence, they are all the same. There is nothing wrong with them. the difference."

"Where shall we take the bus by then?"

"Getting on and off the bus is at the passenger station. You need to arrive here ten minutes in advance, and wait for the bus after going through the security check."

"Is this car really not cold when sitting in it?"

"It shouldn't be cold, but it might be a little hot. After all, it's summer now."

",,,,,,"

As more and more people come to the bus station to inquire about related news, the bus station has also become more lively than the train station.

In fact, cars have now become the most discussed topic among young and old in economic regions.

With a price of more than 6000 taels, several suites are directly on the road.

In addition, the speed of the car and the characteristics that it does not need to be dragged by horses all made the car quickly popular in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

Whenever there is a car running on the road, it will definitely attract countless eyes, and whenever there is a car parked on the side of the road, it will inevitably attract countless people to watch.

Now the Daming Long-distance Automobile Firm has actually launched such a service, and you can experience the taste of a car ride for a few hundred yuan. taste.

There is no way, the price of cars is too expensive, and the output is very small now, and there are too few people who can afford cars. Some even if they are rich, they can't buy cars now, and they can only be envious.

Now that I can experience the car in advance, I will naturally not let go of such an opportunity.

In less than an hour, the tickets for consecutive days were sold out, so that those who did not buy tickets were extremely dissatisfied.

And on the sixth day of June, the bus station was overcrowded, and the square outside was crowded with people who came to watch the excitement.

A lot of people obviously bought tickets for the afternoon, and came here in the morning impatiently.

There are too many young and old who are idle in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

"Clang~clang~"

"The ticket checking has started, the ticket checking has started~"

"Passengers who have bought tickets to go to Tianjin at eight o'clock come here at the entrance of the station, ready to start waiting for the train at the station."

Soon, as the time approached eight o'clock, the staff at the passenger station also started shouting with iron horns, reminding passengers to get in and wait for the bus in time.

"I~"

"Go, go, come in, come in~"

"Get ready for the car, get ready for the car~"

As soon as the words fell, the passengers who bought the bus tickets suddenly became excited, and some even raised the tickets in their hands high.

Everyone took a closer look, and suddenly discovered that most of the people who bought the tickets were full-fledged young masters who had nothing to do. These young masters were all well-dressed, with fans in their hands, and servants. Gather in groups of three or five.

Obviously they are all planning to experience this car.

Not every son can afford a car. Only those who are really rich are willing to buy a car worth more than 6000 taels. The average son has a car with hundreds or thousands of taels in his hand. Pocket money is already very good, but it is still far from enough to buy a car.

But Brother Gongzi is also a person who wants to save face, and he is also the one who likes to follow suit the most.

Seeing that other people have their own cars and they are driving loudly, but I have never even ridden in a car, this is naturally unacceptable.

It is said that as soon as the car came out, the business of Goulan Wasi and Brothel Chuguan in the Beijing-Tianjin area deteriorated, because the main force of consumption was actually saving money to buy cars.

There is no way, the car is too expensive. These sons and sisters have pocket money of tens or hundreds of taels of silver, but it is not easy for the family to spend thousands of taels of silver all at once to buy a car.

It is said that there are still some second-generation ancestors in the Beijing-Tianjin area who are looking for death and life, threatening their old man to buy a car and making a lot of jokes.

Now that you can experience the car for 500 Wen, these young men who have nothing to do are naturally very happy.

Soon, under the envious eyes of everyone, the young masters entered the bus station and boarded the bus that had been waiting for a long time.

Once the bus is full, it will leave immediately when the time is up.

Within a few minutes, under the watchful eyes of thousands of people outside, a bus loaded with dozens of people drove out. The moment the bus came out, the young men on the bus couldn't help but waved to the crowd on the side of the road .

"This car is really big!"

"Isn't it? Otherwise, how could we bring dozens of people at once?"

"How much do you think this car should cost if it is to be sold?"

"I think it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. It is much bigger than those small cars. I think the small car is only that big and can only seat a few people. This car is so big that it can seat dozens of people." .”

"I think so, at least tens of thousands of taels of silver."

Amidst the discussions among the crowd, the bus gradually disappeared into the street dragging black smoke.
