"This thing can really move?" An old man lay on the car window, looking at the slowly moving scenery outside, and sighed sincerely.

"So what if you move? Look at the speed now, it is not as fast as a two-year-old doll." Another old man firmly believed that the train would not be as fast as a war horse.

After all, in the Tang Dynasty, war horses were already the fastest means of transportation that could carry people, and were incomparable to any vehicle. According to common sense, trains could not be faster than war horses in any case.

It is even said that Li Chengqian's train can move, which is enough to shock the old guys, and it is faster than a war horse... In the eyes of a group of veterans, it is just nonsense.

In another corner of the train, a group of civil servants led by Wei Heizi were talking about their affairs in a low voice. Only when the group of veterans set out for meaningless comments would they look at them with their eyes slanted.

These literati are different from those veterans. As a group of people who are good at listening first and then speaking, they have long heard about the train from Yu Zhining and others. Their attitude towards those "country bumpkins" who are making a fuss, their attitude is to be a joke.

The unique sound of the train has been echoing in the train's carriages, and as time goes by, the train's speed has been steadily increasing.

The old guys who were betting with Li Xiaogong and Li Chengqian had already started to turn pale. As the cavalry following outside were thrown away further and further, the consequences of the failure of the gambling came into everyone's minds.

"This is the power of the machine. As long as the carbon on the car is not burned, the car can stop and run. Uncles... are you willing to admit defeat now?" Li Chengqian also saw the cavalry who was gradually being thrown away outside the window, and a smirk came from the corner of his mouth.

"I haven't arrived in Chang'an yet, so I can't count the competition." Yuchi Gong was obviously holding on. Thinking that he would go around Chang'an City and shout "I'm a terribble." The old guy's eyes began to twitch unconsciously.

His Majesty Li Er was in a good mood and sat among a group of literati, holding a glass of grape wine and talking loudly with everyone about poetry and songs, and turned a blind eye to his younger brothers' gaze for help.

In the old man's opinion, although this group of subordinates lost, they won for him.

The value of the train has been fully reflected at this time. The spacious space is comparable to the speed of a war horse, and the attributes that can never be exhausted make the old man extremely satisfied.

Although he was talking about poetry with Wei Zheng and others at this time, what he was thinking about was the spectacular scene of the army being in the Tang Dynasty riding a train, arriving at the border as fast as possible, and storming into the enemy country with a storm of overwhelming momentum before the enemy could react.

However, the women in the other carriage showed another performance. Almost all the noble ladies surrounded Queen Changsun and praised Li Chengqian endlessly.

There was no cold wind in the warm carriage, and the familiar scenes flying past the car window made these ladies smile.

While praising Li Chengqian, he was thinking about whether he would send the money to the East Palace as soon as possible after he returned home, so that he could make a good fortune in the future.

After personally experiencing the speed of the train, all the ladies realized that the Tang Dynasty would definitely promote this thing in the future, which means that if you invest in trains now, you will inevitably have high returns in the future.

They had been hesitating before, feeling that the concept of Li Chengqian's train was to make money, so they never had the idea of ​​taking out the money. Even if the head of the family wanted to take out the money, they would have strongly stopped it.

But now the ideas of these ladies have changed. All the ideas proposed by Li Chengqian have become reality during the high-speed movement of the train. The life of sitting at home counting money is tempting them.

Empress Changsun sat reservedly, responding rationally to the ladies around her, but she was proud of her son's achievements.

The emergence of trains is subversive, or it is a destructive existence.

Under the guidance of Li Chengqian, a time traveler, the first train of the Tang Dynasty took many fewer detours than the first train in real history.

Although this car is the first generation product, it is not much worse than the mature technology in later generations.

Without seeing high-speed rails and planes, the ancients could not imagine that there would be a kind of car that could transport thousands of people at a time. The most important thing is that this kind of car does not need to be pushed or pulled by horses. Just burn some charcoal and work continuously.

So whether it is a noble lady or the old killer in front of him, everyone's mind is in chaos, and everything is nonsense. Although they were having fun sitting together and chatting, there was only one thought in their minds, that is... they got rich!

But before getting rich, the old guys still need to face a serious problem, that is, he shouted "I am a terribly man."

This is a bet with Li Er as the notary. If Li Xiaogong and Li Chengqian don't let go, the end of this bet will inevitably be a tragedy.

Li Chengqian also understood what the old guys were thinking. Seeing that fewer and fewer people were talking, even Yuchi Gong was a little depressed. He looked at Li Xiaogong and stood up and said, "I believe that uncles and uncles have seen the speed of the train. Now I have an immature idea. I wonder if you agree?"

"What's the matter? Let's hear it!" After receiving the instructions of His Majesty Li Er, Changsun Wuji spoke in front of Yuchi Gong.

"It's very simple, and I decided to raise the price in the train, each company has 300,000 yuan."

"What? 300,000 yuan? Why don't you rob it?" After thinking about whether to go back, the veterans and spoiled the East Palace spoke in unison.

"Actually, I'm just grabbing it now." Li Chengqian spread his hands: "But if you can follow the bet after you return to Chang'an, I won't raise the price, and it's still 200,000 yuan, what?"

"How can a real man not keep his word?" Guo Xiaoke has always loved money as much as his life, but now Li Chengqian's price increase is a bit unacceptable.

But Guo Xiaoke felt a little embarrassed when he thought that if he didn't get another 100,000 guan, he would be surrounded by Chang'an City and shouted, "I'm a terribly bump."

Under the interweaving of the two emotions of distress and embarrassment, Lao Guo, the general of the Tang Dynasty, became childish.

"I want to count, but I am too poor now. And if it weren't for your friendship with my father and making countless military achievements throughout your life, I would have doubled the price." As the old man had not spoken, the winner's smile appeared on Li Chengqian's face.
