The people cheered each other loudly, but the train did not slow down at all and continued to run on its own.
The bright talisman lamp on the front of the car, illuminated by the sunset, showed a bright yellow color mixed with purple and red, like the pupils of a monster.
The crowd finally panicked. Some people jumped off the tracks and tried to climb onto the platform.
However, the height of the platform is too high. Unless you have extraordinary physical fitness, it will be difficult to climb up by yourself.
Shouts, cries, and calls for help all converged on the railway tracks.
Seeing that the vehicle was about to drive through the platform at full speed, causing countless casualties,
Two monks in white clothes suddenly floated out from the front of the car.
They stepped on top of the vehicle, put their hands together and spread them apart.
Invisible and strong mental power instantly acted on the people of Shuozhou in front.
Everyone flew up, fell on the edge of the platform, or was pressed against the stone walls on both sides of the track, unable to move.
Bang bang, bang bang.
The Lingqi locomotive rushed past as if it were passing through a divided ocean. It did not run over any common people and did not cause any casualties.
Twenty carriages, like a long dragon moving in the clouds and raining, spewing billowing steam, quickly passed through Shuozhou Station.
Many passengers in the car crowded their faces in front of the windows, overlooking the scene below the car.
The eyes may be sympathetic, doubtful, or disgusted.
"Is this the plague-ridden Shuozhou?"
In the first-class carriage, a young man wearing gorgeous clothes and a Taiyuan Wang jade pendant on his waist (with the word Wang Jie engraved on the back) retracted his indifferent gaze outside the car, shook his head and said: "It's really unlucky. These ordinary people.
, they actually came up with a way to block the railway tracks and force the vehicles to stop. I don’t know who gave them the courage.”
Another beautiful woman in the carriage wearing a Qinghe Cui family jade pendant (with the word Cui Yan engraved on the back) nodded and said: "Fortunately, when we went to Yunzhou this time, when we represented the Wang family and the Cui family to jointly run the fur business, we brought along
to make offerings,
You can use telekinesis to drive them away, otherwise you will really be ensnared by these people."
During the conversation, the two white-clothed monks who had driven away the people of Shuozhou walked back to the carriage and nodded to the two nobles. Then they returned to their seats and sat down, continuing to drink tea and read the newspaper.
It's like nothing happened.
Most of the worshipers of thousand-year-old families are like this, they are taciturn, don't say what they shouldn't say, and don't see what they shouldn't see.
"Yes, fortunately."
Wang Jie nodded and said: "The governor of Shuozhou didn't know what to do, and he failed to control the epidemic. Similar cases have appeared in Yunzhou recently, and he was forced to follow the blockade.
Fortunately, the signboards of our two companies were loud enough, and we took advantage of the last chance before the city was locked up to get the pass."
"Yeah, hehe."
Cui Yan just smiled, but she felt a little disdainful in her heart.
The fool in front of them really thought that with the Taiyuan Wang family's sign, they could have no taboos on Hedong Road. If the elders of their own family had not been friends with the Yunzhou Prefect for many years, how could they have caught up with the car leaving the northern border of Hedong Road?
Full train.
"Speaking of which, the war with the Zhou Kingdom seems inevitable."
Wang Jie seemed not to notice the contempt hidden in the woman's eyes, and said to himself: "But this is also good for our family.
War always costs money. And when the court spends money, it means that the company makes money.
Armor, crossbows, arrows, food and grass, tea and wine, clothing, bedding
It was impossible for the government-run workshops of the imperial court to contract the production of all these materials, and in the end they had to purchase them from private companies.
If the war lasts for ten days, we can earn one hundred thousand coins,
If the war lasts for a hundred days, we can earn a million dollars.
If the war continues, we will continue to make money.
Let me tell you, the old-fashioned way of buying land and raising a family like that of a thousand-year-old family is too old-fashioned.
Even if there are countless famous scholars and scholars, and the people in the state only know about the aristocratic family but not about the country of Yu,
As long as His Majesty wants to, he can still easily suppress the aristocratic family. Just like "Clan Chronicle" and "Family Name Record".
Nowadays, Yu State has spiritual energy motorcycles, charm disks, and workshops that use spiritual energy machines. It can be said that it is changing with each passing day.
What era are you in, and are you still playing the role of a traditional family?
We should have changed our thinking long ago, abandoned the veil of concealment, and started doing business to make money.
As long as there is enough money and the relationship between money sharing is wide enough, it is difficult to distinguish between aristocratic families, prime ministers, ministers, and clan members, and they are indistinguishable from each other. Why worry about the suppression of the court and the academy? How can we all get rich together?
Isn’t it beautiful?”
Wang Jie became more and more excited as he talked. Cui Yan always kept smiling, nodding her head in approval from time to time, but the contempt in her eyes became stronger and stronger.
Suddenly, Wang Jie coughed violently, subconsciously covered his chest and arched his body.
Cui Yan's expression suddenly changed, she stood up abruptly, and took a few steps back regardless of the so-called aristocratic etiquette.
The two priests in the corner of the carriage frowned and came closer to take a closer look at Wang Jie's spit on the table in the middle.
One of the Cui family members shook his head and whispered: "It shouldn't be an epidemic. The few patients in Yunzhou coughed up foamy bloody sputum or bright red sputum when they coughed."
"That's good."
Cui Yan's brows relaxed, she regained her demeanor as a woman from aristocratic family, and said gently: "Wang Liulang, are you okay?"
"It's okay, cough."
Perhaps because he felt that coughing in front of the woman he liked was unseemly, Wang Jie took out his handkerchief, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said sheepishly: "Maybe I drank too much with my friends in Yunzhou a few days ago and hurt my throat.
Haha, I am the eldest son of the Wang family in Taiyuan. I have eaten a lot of various elixirs and fairy grass since I was a child. I almost never get sick.
What's more, as the saying goes, a house that accumulates good deeds will always be prosperous. The princes, generals and ministers are the seeds.
The plague will only attack poor people who are usually unkempt and do not pay attention to hygiene.
How could it be infected on me?"
"That's it."
Cui Yan's eyes flickered and she said softly: "I suddenly remembered that Cui's business in Yunzhou still has some account books that I haven't checked."
Wang Jie immediately stood up and said, "I'll accompany you."
"No need, it's all boring book work, so I won't bother Rokuro."
Cui Yan smiled charmingly, said goodbye and left the first-class compartment.
Wang Jie looked at the other person's leaving figure, smacked his lips, and while savoring the aroma remaining in the carriage, recalling his eloquent talk just now, he smiled confidently, feeling that he, the eldest son of the Wang family in Taiyuan, had already
Success made Cui Yan fascinated.
"hehe."
Wang Jie rubbed his chin and smiled, then suddenly coughed again, "Cough cough——"
On the same Lingqi locomotive, coughing sounds like Wang Jie's came one after another. In almost every carriage, people were covering their mouths and coughing.
The vehicle was driving on the wasteland railway track, taking advantage of the darkness and heading towards the heart of Hedong Road - Taiyuan, the northern capital.
