Chapter 73: Xiangzhou

"Master, it's a long way to go to the master. In my opinion, it's better for us to drive a carriage to Xiangzhou first, and then take a train from Xiangzhou to Su Di. It only takes two days to take a train from Xiangzhou to the provincial capital of Su Di.

Three days, this can save us at least half of our time."

The next morning, Zhang Shaozong went to Zhulinju in Pingyang Town to have breakfast with his master Ao Tianlong, junior sister Ningshuang, Aying, Yuanbao and his eldest brother Zhang Jizong, and then prepared to set off. Before leaving, Zhang Shaozong looked at his master and made a suggestion

He said, Maoshan is on the other side of Su Di, and it would take nearly a month to get there from Wuling in Xiangdi. Even if you travel by carriage, it would take two months. If this is the case, it will take two months to go back and forth. Zhang Shaozong doesn't want to go there.

I was wasted so much time on the road, so I suggested it.

"Train?" Ningshuang's eyes lit up when she heard Zhang Shaozong's words: "Is it the big and long car that I run on? I haven't even ridden in it yet. What do you think, dad? Let's just follow my senior brother's advice.

Just take the train and save time.”

Big and long?

What a wolf-like statement.

Zhang Shaozong looked at Ningshuang suspiciously. It was because his thoughts were impure and he was thinking wrongly, or because he, his junior sister, was driving.

Ao Tianlong was also interested. After all, he didn't need to do anything on the way. It would be best to save time. After all, he had been delayed in Xiangdi for so long, and as Ningshuang said, he had never taken a train.

, it would be a good idea to go and experience it, he was also quite curious, and nodded immediately after hearing this.

"Okay, then I'll do as you say."

Then the group of people packed up and saluted and got into the car. This time, Zhang Shaozong didn't bring anyone with him to Maoshan. In addition to his master and junior sister, he only brought a tool man named Yuanbao who could help drive the carriage and carry things.

Two carriages were prepared.

"Brother, then my master, my sister, my sister and I and Yuan Bao will leave. I will leave this place to you for the time being. A Ying, you just have to look after the store and take care of your house."

Finally, everything was ready, and Zhang Shaozong said goodbye to his eldest brother and Aying.

"Don't worry, be more careful on the road."

"Master, please take care along the way. I'll wait for you at home."

"good."

After saying goodbye to each other, Zhang Shaozong and the four of them set off immediately. After leaving Pingyang Town, they rushed all the way to Xiangzhou. Xiangzhou is also the provincial capital of Xiangdi. It would take about five or six days to take a carriage all the way from Wuling.

On the road, at the beginning, it was Zhang Shaozong and Yuanbao in a carriage, and his master Ao Tianlong and junior sister Ningshuang were in a carriage. However, less than an hour after leaving Pingyang Town, after a brief rest on the road, it became Yuanbao and Ao Tianlong.

A carriage was driven by Yuan Bao. Zhang Shaozong himself got into the carriage with Ning Shuang. Zhang Shaozong drove the carriage and Ning Shuang sat inside.

"Alas, there is no way for women to be admitted to college."

Ao Tianlong couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. Ever since he met Zhang Shaozong while living in Wuling, his father's status in Ningshuang's eyes has become lower and lower, and now he has completely become a senior brother without a father.

This made Ao Tianlong feel like his daughter, whom he had raised for sixteen years, turned around and ran away with someone else. Fortunately, this man was his most valued, beloved and outstanding disciple, and he had always been filial to his master.

Plus, when I think about it, I feel a little more comfortable.

At least it's not cheaper for outsiders.

"Brother, what exactly does that train look like and how does it run? I heard people say that the train seems to be running on some kind of track. What is that track?"

In the carriage with Zhang Shaozong, Ningshuang was like a curious baby, asking Zhang Shaozong about the train along the way. Since he had never taken a train before, he seemed a little excited.

Trains were not popular in this era, especially for people in remote inland places, and they only existed in legends.

This is like the first time many people took a plane in the previous life, and there is inevitably some excitement and anticipation.

"The railway track is the route that the train runs on. The train must be on it to run, just like the carriage we drive can only run on the road..."

Zhang Shaozong also took the trouble to explain to Ningshuang along the way. Occasionally, when Yuanbao was driving behind and could not see them in front, he would kiss Ningshuang and hold her hands, making Ningshuang blush.

In this case, there are naturally some classic questions that women ask men between lovers.

"Senior brother, will you always be kind to me?"

"The mountain has no edges, the heaven and the earth are united, I dare not break up with you."

Well, there is also Bai Yuzhen, I don’t know if there will be other women in the future, but no matter how many women there are in the future, my love for you will never change.

Zhang Shaozong silently added in his heart that he was so emotionally consistent.

Ningshuang was instantly overjoyed when she heard this, and her whole heart suddenly felt sweet. She leaned her head on Zhang Shaozong's shoulder and thought to herself,

Brother is so kind.

.....................

Five days later, Zhang Shaozong and his four friends arrived in Xiangzhou smoothly. During this period, they also encountered several waves of bandits and people with bad intentions, but they were all successfully dealt with. Some bad Zhang Shaozong were sent directly to the underworld for salvation.

Xiangzhou is the provincial capital of Xiangdi. Although it is not as prosperous as the top cities in the country such as Beijing, its prosperity is not comparable to Wuling, Taoyuan, and Jiuan under Zhang Shaozong. On the night of arriving in Xiangzhou, Zhang Shaozong passed by

I booked a high-end foreign hotel with the foreign bank VIP card in my hand, and then bought four first-class train tickets to Su Di provincial capital the next afternoon through this foreign bank VIP card. This foreign bank VIP card was originally from Zhang Shaozong.

Willis gave it to him when he was saving money at Wulingcheng Foreign Bank.

Everything was arranged, and the four of them stayed in Xiangzhou that night. At night, Zhang Shaozong took his master, junior sister, and Yuan Bao to a high-end Western restaurant for dinner. He originally wanted to take the three of them to try Western food, but instead

None of the three were used to eating, and Zhang Shaozong himself didn't feel like he had an appetite. As a result, the four of them didn't have enough to eat, and finally went out to find a Hunan restaurant on the street.

"Those Western foods don't taste very good. It's us Chinese who make them delicious. I really don't understand why so many people like Western food and it's so expensive."

After eating Western food that was not good for the stomach, Ningshuang suddenly couldn't help but express her feelings when she tried Chinese food again.

"This depends on what the individual thinks. It cannot be ruled out that some people really like Western food, but more people actually think that eating Western food is stylish and respectable. They think that Western restaurants are the upper class, and they feel better after entering them.

They become upper-class people, and these people actually eat Western food to save face."

"I actually don't have much of an appetite for Western food. I just wanted to take you and Master Yuanbao to experience the taste of Western food. But if you don't like it, I won't go there in the future."

Zhang Shaozong said with a smile.

"Well, I won't go there in the future. I used to think that Western food was delicious and high-end, but it turned out to be just like that once I went there."

Ningshuang nodded, and Yuanbao and Aotianlong on the side also nodded in agreement. At this time, a newsboy suddenly ran to the door outside.

"We sold newspapers and sold newspapers. The locomotive and other trains were robbed. Seven people died and twelve were injured. We sold newspapers and sold newspapers..."

"Bring me one, there's no need to look for it."

Zhang Shaozong heard the news and asked the newsboy to come over and buy a copy, and gave it directly to a large sum of money.

"Thank you, uncle."

The newsboy took Dayang and immediately happily gave one to Zhang Shaozong.

I'm not old, I'm not an uncle yet.

Zhang Shaozong wanted to say this in his heart, but in the end he didn't say it out loud. He took the newspaper and started reading it. The headline was about the robbery of the locomotive that the newsboy had just shouted about. But just last night, a car from the train was robbed.

The train from Xiangzhou to Beijing was robbed on the way out of Xiangzhou. Moreover, the robbers robbed the first-class carriage, and killed seven people and injured 12 others. Two of the dead were foreigners.

It caused a sensation in Xiangzhou City.

You must know that these days, only ordinary people can sit on the locomotive and wait for the bus. In addition to money, you also need a certain status. Generally, those who can sit on the locomotive and wait for the bus are basically dignitaries or foreigners. If they are not rich, then they are expensive.

Unable to sit in the first-class train, Zhang Shaozong was able to buy a first-class ticket just now with the VIP card of a foreign bank. As a result, a first-class train was robbed and someone died. The sensation can be imagined.

"Brother, what does it say?"

Ao Tianlong and the others also looked at Zhang Shaozong and the newspaper in his hand, and Ningshuang couldn't help but ask.

"It said that a first-class carriage of a train bound for the capital was robbed last night. Seven people were killed and twelve others were injured."

Zhang Shaozong immediately told the three people that the newspaper had disappeared, and at the same time handed the newspaper to his master.

"Ah, taking the train is so dangerous, then we shouldn't be robbed too."

Ningshuang immediately worried.

Zhang Shaozong was originally going to blurt out that he would not. After all, the car he bought was a first-class car. Those who could ride in a first-class car these days were either rich or expensive, and the security rules inside were not something that ordinary people could overcome. However, as he spoke, he suddenly thought of this newspaper.

The car that was just robbed was not a first-class car. It’s impossible to say that those people were specifically looking for first-class cars, knowing that the people inside were either rich, expensive or short of money.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shaozong directly took out the copper coins.

"Let me do some fortune telling."

Then, his expression suddenly became subtle. They would really be robbed on their train tomorrow.
