The people of Liyue Harbor are looking forward to that day. This is a new milestone in Liyue's history. Who wouldn't want to try a vehicle that can carry 10,000 people at a time?
On the Qun Yu Pavilion.
"Ningguang, do you understand? This is the principle."
"After your explanation, I don't understand anymore."
"Study hard. I have to go to Inazuma in the second half of the year. I won't be back until later this year. You must learn some knowledge about immortal talismans."
"This time the train will use synchronous sound transmission technology. I have optimized this technology, and it can be used for a month for pure sound transmission. I will leave several large warehouses of this special wood.
You will have to arrange for people to carve the immortal talismans. This technology will become the foundation of Liyue’s finances in the later stages of development, and it is extremely important.”
"It's just selling the microphone and speaker to make some money. If it's cracked, it's probably ruined. How can it be considered the foundation of the finances?"
“Hehe, this is a super weakened version. Because there is no signal tower, the transmission distance is only 2 kilometers, which is already the limit.
I also set up a lot of anti-cracking methods. People who have not systematically learned the knowledge of immortal talismans cannot crack it. People who have learned it have also received the grace of the immortals and basically will not do it. In fact, it doesn't matter even if it is cracked.
But the development of this system is not that simple. How much money can be made from selling microphones and speakers?
We later sold call minutes. One minute of talk costs 1 Mora. If the Qianyan Army, who is far away at the border of Liyue Shimen, wants to communicate with their families, the call time must be at least half an hour, which costs 100 Mora.
"The number of minutes of calls from so many people in Liyue will be huge. And it's not just Liyue. As a service provider, it's reasonable for us to take a cut, right?"
Ningguang took out her abacus and started typing away. Even if she took a cut of the money, it would still be a huge amount. Ningguang let out a breath of foul air. She had worked so hard to make money by trading in various materials and goods in the early years. But this person could actually make money by lying down.
With technology as the foundation, the pie will be expanded and all people will benefit. However, I don’t understand why he wants to give these technologies to Liyue. Obviously, their company has the ability to do it alone and make a lot of money. Now they have gone from eating meat to drinking soup.
"Can you not give this technology to Liyue? Can you keep it under my control?"
Xiao Lin Zixuan, who was sitting on the flower bud, looked at Ningguang with a smile. He controlled the small tree to move closer to Ningguang, clamped Ningguang's nose with both hands, and then let go after applying a little force.
"Don't even think about it."
"why?"
"Because this technology can only be protected and operated by the country, you only see the surface phenomenon. The deeper thing is called controlling all the information of the Teyvat continent. I designed a background sending mechanism for this system in the early stage of design.
If we build this equipment for other countries, what do you think will happen? As long as they use it, we can monitor any information they send.
No matter what time or where, every word is backed up in Liyue. As long as you use our technology, you will not be able to escape Liyue's surveillance.
For example, if you use this equipment to inform Beidou that we are going to Wanmin Hall for dinner tonight, and then inform the groom where to leave from, then we can arrange various secret assassins early according to what you said.
Or maybe you know that some goods are very cheap, then sorry, I know that too, and I will just cut off your business. So who do you think is best to own this technology?"
Ningguang's back was soaked after hearing this, and she didn't care about the pain in her nose. This lunatic is too crazy. Does he want Liyue to become the uncrowned king of Teyvat?
Control the information of everyone on the continent of Teyvat. In this way, everyone's words are under the supervision of Liyue. Liyue will know about anything that happens at the first time. This kind of information collection is countless times more terrifying than that of the Adventurer's Association!
"It will take a long time to develop the relevant equipment, and we lack talent in this area. We can take our time with this matter, there is no rush.
I actually have another profitable business that I plan to give you. That is the mount of Uncle Fu that you saw in Mingyun Town.
We are currently lacking a lot of core technology. If you have time, please help me think of a way. This thing is a great money-making tool. After all, the cores of the Ruins Guards are almost all used up. We can make a few for fun. Without new technology, this thing cannot be mass-produced."
"Is it the very luxurious four-wheeled vehicle? It seems to be called the Liyue 356A Gin Edition. When I took Beidou to visit Mingyun Town last month, I secretly drove it. Beidou was very interested in it and fought with me for the steering wheel. Then he crashed the front of the car and blew it up. Uncle Fu was very sad."
"!!! How come I didn't know? No wonder Uncle Fu didn't come to the rock ridge seal array during this period. He must be repairing the car. You are really bold. The car is a man's second wife. He didn't get angry on the spot, which was considered a good temper.
Just like your Qun Yu Pavilion, if someone dares to destroy your Qun Yu Pavilion, I will definitely turn hostile to you."
"Well, I'll apologize next time."
"Forget it. It's okay as long as Uncle Fu didn't lose his temper. Let's prepare for the Lantern Festival."
Time passed quickly, and the people of Liyue celebrated a lively Lantern Festival. Uncle Fu and Xiaolin Zixuan also released a larger lantern than the previous one in the passenger station square.
A chill came over him, and a flash of lightning suddenly struck Lin Zixuan's mind. Tomorrow, there will definitely be a lot of tourists coming to Liyue Harbor. Then, I will be suppressed on the ground... I'd better continue to play dead!
At 7 o'clock the next morning, the sun was rising. People from all the major newspapers in Liyue crowded around the tracks outside the train station, waiting for the first train to arrive.
"Here it comes! The rails are vibrating gently."
I saw a very bright light coming from a distance.
"That's a lamp?"
"Can the light be this bright? I'm going blind."
A train even bigger than the previous one came from a distance. There were two panes of glass in the front, and people could be seen sitting inside.
Woo...woo...the sound of the whistle reminds people to stay away.
Click, click, click, dozens of carriages passed by people, making this special friction sound that made people's blood boil.
"Ah! I have to pee! This is so shocking."
“The metal beauty on the car body is simply a work of art.”
"I counted, why isn't there 100 sections?"
“最大能拉100节,不代表必须去拉100节啊?一节就25米长。100节差不多2.5公里了。光是指挥就已经是一个大问题。”
"Yes, no wonder there were only 30-odd carriages."
"The bus runs every hour, so it can carry a lot of people in a day. My ticket is for the 9 o'clock hour, carriage 12, row 6, seat 2."
"I'm in car No. 8. I just went to the outside of the train station square and saw that the traffic there has been divided into three parts by railings, with one entrance for every 10 cars. It seems that we didn't enter through the same entrance."
"Look, there's another one coming on the other track."
It was almost 8 o'clock. There were 8 trains, one of which was leaving the station, and the remaining 7 were waiting in the large area behind the platform. In addition, there were 8 simple locomotives and 4 new-style fire slime steam-powered locomotives entering the station one after another.
"Liyue is too strong! How much iron did it take?"
"I'm also curious. Judging from the mass of this carriage, it must weigh at least 20 tons."
"Look at the springs on the wheels. Have you ever seen such big ones? The springs on mountain bikes are not even as thick as your little finger."
Tianquan Xing Ningguang once again cut the ribbon for the new train at the train station square. The people around cheered. Qianyanjun directed the crowd to line up to enter the station.
The loudspeakers in the square kept broadcasting warnings, saying that there was no need to crowd and that everyone had a chance. Soon, with the help of the conductor, the first group of people had all boarded the train.
“Welcome aboard Liyue’s first train. I am the conductor. This train will travel at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour. Please do not stick your hands or head out of the window while driving.
Except for the first five carriages where important people are not allowed to enter, you can visit other carriages at will, but don't crowd them. Before getting off the train, you must return to your own carriage. You will also need to check your ticket when leaving the station.
Be civilized and polite, start with me. If you feel unwell, there are toilets in the front and back of the carriage, and there are bags in front of the seats. If you feel seriously unwell, please report it to the conductor in time, and there are medical staff on the train platform. "
At 9 o'clock, the train whistled and slowly left the station. Everyone in the carriage was shocked. It started to move? It was getting faster and faster.
"Ah! I don't even dare to look out the window. I seem to have a fear of speed."
"Look at the cement road across the street. They are all so slow! They were directly left behind by the train."
Zhongli, Hu Lao and Hu Tao were sitting in a sleeper car together, looking at the scenery outside the window, not knowing what they were thinking.
"It's worth it to be able to see something like this in my lifetime. Mr. Zhong, I'll leave Walnut to you from now on."
"Well, I can see that you don't have much time left."
"Wangshu Inn! I remember going there fifteen years ago. It was not a good experience. I encountered four waves of organizations similar to the treasure-stealing group. If I didn't know a thing or two about martial arts, I would have lost my life on the way.
People without the Eye of God cannot use anchor point teleportation. Now, Lin Zixuan from Xuanyuan Trading Company has done a great thing for those of us who don’t have the Eye of God!”
"I know. He's the one who was suppressed by Geo Emperor at the Liyue Bus Station. Xiangling also often talks about him." Hu Tao interrupted.
"Little Walnut, don't underestimate him. His goal is not just this little bit. I used the magic of the Rebirth Hall to learn a lot of things at the 'Border'. You are so naughty, don't provoke him. People who are reborn have experienced great terrors."
Chapter 47 Undercurrent
The debut of the train had a huge impact on the continent of Teyvat. After the Lantern Festival, Liyue also opened an express train from Liyue Port to the Shimen border. The distance is nearly 1000 kilometers and it only takes 9 hours to reach the border, which shocked the entire continent of Teyvat.
People are very curious about this kind of transportation. After roughly calculating the cost and income, many foreign large chambers of commerce are drooling and want to buy it. However, they all get the reply that the production capacity is insufficient and it is not for sale for the time being.
Since Liyue has cleared out all the treasure-stealing groups within its territory, in order to prevent those groups from sneaking into Liyue again, a large number of self-disciplined and trapping trees have been planted on the border, and the Thousand Rocks Army patrols every day.
If you want to enter Liyue now, you can basically only go through the border checkpoints. It is no longer possible to enter by simply crossing mountains and hills like before.
Ordinary passengers who want to enter or leave Liyue need to submit an application in advance and then wait for approval from the Border Division of the General Affairs Department. There is also a special fast-track approval channel for freight.
Many businessmen also saw the business opportunity and opened several hotels near the border of Liyue. As the flow of people increased, they naturally made a lot of money.
With the massive increase in tourists, a new profession has emerged in Liyue Harbor: tour guide. With the strong support of Tianquan Xing Ningguang, this emerging industry called tourism has officially begun to show its bloody mouth.
Taking tourists to visit scenic spots such as Luhua Pool, Wangshu Inn and Qianshou Ningguang, shopping for snacks, gambling on stones, taking train trips, visiting the Liyue History Museum, and a series of other projects all require consumption, as well as photography services, various souvenirs and other expenses.
Under someone's guidance, the General Affairs Department issued a new decree: if the reputation of Liyue's tourism industry deteriorates due to malicious incidents such as counterfeit goods and overcharging, the business will be severely punished or even go to jail.
A good tourism environment can make everyone profit, even if it means less money. If the reputation is bad, people will stop traveling to Liyue, and then everyone will have to starve.
After all, there are many places on the Blue Planet that have a bad reputation, which has caused the number of tourists that used to be hundreds of millions to drop to single digits. The impact on the economy and people's employment is huge.
On the Qun Yu Pavilion.
"Is this the light on the locomotive?"
"Well, this is a key development direction for our Liyue at this stage. It's also the reason why I want to go to Inazuma."
"Can this thing really be compared to a candle?"
"This light bulb has a service life of three to five months during the day. If you use it occasionally at night, it can last for a year. Look at the brightness, isn't it much brighter than a candle? And the price is very cheap too."
“Are you going to destroy Liyue’s candle industry?” Ningguang covered her forehead again.
“Candles will only be used for emergencies. After all, they have been used for thousands of years and it’s time for them to be phased out of the mainstream.
Actually, I want to make use of the night time. We have built such a good cement road, but after 7pm we have to drive in the dark, which is not safe. In addition, there are already traffic jams at certain times during the day, so we need to divert the traffic.”
"??? Don't tell me... that nearly 1000 kilometers of cement road needs to be equipped with light bulbs?"
"How clever! That's what I planned. And we'll also use light bulbs on the roads in Liyue Harbor."
Ningguang fell directly onto the table.
"I knew it would be like this. I wouldn't feel comfortable if I didn't cause trouble."
"When it was designed, there was a space reserved for installation, but it was not built due to technical and talent issues.
Think about it, if we use it to drive freight carriages at night, wouldn't it reduce congestion during the day? We can't use candles, right? How many would we need? And it would require a lot of people climbing up and down to light the candles, which is too unreliable."
"There doesn't seem to be much benefit in doing these things. Can you make money?"
"It's not clear yet. We have to go to Inazuma to check the situation. If we can't find cheap and suitable power generation materials, we can only get tens of thousands of fire slimes to boil water, or tens of thousands of thunder slimes to generate electricity, or tens of thousands of wind slimes to blow wind.
However, if these slimes are allowed to gather together in large numbers, it will easily lead to problems. We will think of other solutions when the time comes.
Actually there is a fossil fuel called coal, but I will not use coal on a large scale. Back then on the Blue Planet, due to the large-scale use of these heavily polluting fuels, we could no longer see the blue sky.
A city is covered in gray smog all year round. You can't even see Liyue Harbor from the Qun Yu Pavilion, you can only see white fog. Maybe you can only see Liyue Harbor a few days a year."
"We really can't let that happen. If we do that, we'll be a sinner for Liyue."
“It is precisely because of the elemental power of Teyvat that we can take different paths and get the same result.
Electricity is a trend in the future. After being developed, this energy is very convenient, clean and efficient. Even our Xianfu technology requires electricity to start many designs in order to facilitate the use of ordinary people. "
"Your plans are all linked together. I really don't know what Liyue will become in the future."
"Then practice well, and you will see him if you live longer. Make more time for practice, and leave unimportant matters to the secretarial team.
Just look at Ganyu and you will know. She has been able to maintain her beauty for thousands of years. Who would have thought that she is a thousand-year-old woman.
Decades later, Ganyu, Beidou, and Keqing will all be young and beautiful, and you will be the only old woman with a lot of powder on your face. Imagine that miserable state. Will you have the motivation to practice?"
"You..." Ningguang's forehead squeezed out a "well" character. Lin Zixuan's clone quickly withered and disappeared on the Qun Yu Pavilion.
A flower bud is regenerated on Tianheng Mountain.
Lin Zixuan looked at the bustling Liyue Harbor below the mountain. Liyue's base was almost stable. Although he had no memory of the story after Inazuma, he should now pull some capable people from other countries into Liyue's camp.
The outside world will be in a relatively turbulent period in the next few years, but Liyue Harbor is guarded by immortals and will be basically unaffected.
However, the outside world has already been undercurrents, and although the rectification within Liyue will interfere with the direction of some things to a certain extent, it should not have much impact on the outside world, and many characters will continue to follow the original world line if nothing unexpected happens.
Considering the death of the original body's parents a few years earlier, and the testimony of the guards, it is very likely that this was arranged by the lady executive of the Kingdom of Winter.
Ningguang said that she had never seen this kind of person in all these years in Liyue. She must have been avoiding me since she found out that I had gained powerful strength. I must not let her die so easily.
After hearing that Eula from Mond had won the competition, and with the plan she announced in public, the people in Mond were no longer indifferent to her and she became a popular commodity, with many people proposing to her for marriage.
It is wrong to blame hatred on an innocent little girl. If she had a bad life in Mondstadt and ran away to Liyue, Mondstadt would have suffered a great loss.
Another person who can be brought into the camp is Mondstadt's Diluk. It should be about two months before Diluk's father's death. The culprit is the Fatui executive, the Doctor, who implemented a forced conscription plan.
