Queen: "Give you another chance to organize your language, or don't blame me for gathering fifty thousand troops to wait for you at the train station."

"shop!"

Queen: (╯‘-’)╯︵┻━┻

Chapter 553 Don't be so headstrong

"Okay, okay, don't take your anger out of the table." Robb said: "I swear in the name of my father, my mother, and the eighteenth generation of my ancestors, I really just came to go shopping, and have no other intentions."

The queen squinted: "I didn't use the god of light to swear, but my parents and ancestors, it seems to be true."

"Wow!" Robb said, "You actually know me so well."

The queen's heart skipped a beat. She was nervous, excited, and had a lot of inexplicable emotions.

Not to mention an ancient person like her who has never made netizens before, even those netizens who have been bombarded 100 million times by the information age in future generations will be nervous when they meet netizens of the opposite sex for the first time.

Her voice was a little stiff: "Since it's shopping, I won't arrange the army to deal with you, you can do what you want. After you go shopping in a low-key manner, leave in a low-key manner, pay attention to hiding your identity, and don't just meet people on the Bright Road Street. Said you were the Godfather of Westwind."

Robb seemed to understand something: "It seems that someone on the road of light wants to deal with me."

The queen said calmly: "I never said that, it's just your own unfounded speculation, and I will not be responsible for this speculation."

Robb said with a smile: "Understood, I will keep a low profile, so as not to cause trouble for you."

"That's it, I still have to deal with government affairs. I'm so busy that I don't have time to chat with you."

The queen hung up the phone, froze for a few seconds, and said, "Someone!"

Necromancer No. 1 pushed the door and entered.

The queen lowered her voice and said, "Tomorrow morning, when the train arrives at the station, arrange a large number of spies to closely monitor the train station. That ghost man is coming."

No. 1 whispered: "Do you want to focus on monitoring him?"

"No!" The Queen whispered: "The people who focus on monitoring the Dark Holy See, don't let them know that the ghost man has come to the road of light."

No. 1 seemed to understand something, nodded and said, "Yes."

"In addition." The Queen hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Go and prepare me a low-key, but beautiful dress."

No. 1: "..."

To be low-key again, but also to look good? My queen, don't be so willful, okay?

The steam locomotive hummed, getting further and further away from Westwind Town.

A few hours later, the train temporarily stopped at the station of Nanli Village. This is a must-pass village between Xifeng Town and Guangming Road. The population is not large, only a few hundred people. It was originally a depression. agricultural village.

Last year, the Queen gave Robert Smith a fief and asked him to choose between Rough Rock Canyon and Nanli Village.

Robb found that this place has become a fairly prosperous village and town. Looking around, there is a large house, and I don't know how much the population has become.

As soon as the train entered the station, many people who had already bought tickets got on the train. There is also a large group of migrant workers loading goods into the cargo boxes at the back of the train. Robb saw at a glance that these goods were all iron ingots, piles of iron ingots.

He couldn't help but ask, "What's going on here?"

Marian next to him immediately explained with a smile: "Actually, there has always been iron ore not far from the north of Nanli Village. No one came to dig it before, but now there is a national iron shortage, two nobles established a joint venture in Nanli Village. Owning a mining company, using the rail minecar system you invented to mine large quantities of ore, and centrally smelting iron using blast furnaces...Our success in building this railway is also thanks to the large amount of iron that is produced here."

"The two nobles also recruited a lot of workers from nearby villages and towns, and Nanli Village has also developed. Now the population has reached over a thousand, and most of them are no longer engaged in agriculture, but work in mining companies."

Rob was delighted: "The special steel town, this reminds me of something..."

Luo Bo remembered that he was in the original world. When he was a child, he lived on an old street in Shuangqing City. The old street was next to the Jialing River. There was a "Shuangqing Third Steel Factory", with the factory as the core and a large village next to it. , the residents of the village are all workers of the Shuangqing No. 3 Iron and Steel Plant, a steel village just like it, what is the name of the village? Oh, right! Moderate village. (PS: This village really exists, and my father-in-law lived here when he was a child.)

Now Nanli Village is probably the second moderate village.

A large number of iron ingots were loaded onto the train, obviously to be transported to the road of light. A nobleman in the same car couldn't help laughing: "After the train opens to traffic, the iron ingots produced in Xifeng Town and Nanli Village can use the fastest speed. Ship it to the road of light and supply it to Her Majesty the Queen, and we will not be troubled by iron deficiency in the future."

Robb laughed: "Impossible! Do you want to worry about this iron? After the queen has tasted the sweetness of the railway, she will definitely want to fill the entire kingdom with railways. At that time, I am afraid that she will be short of iron. Gotta roll all over the place."

The aristocratic sweat, rolling on the ground to describe Her Majesty, only Robb dares, ordinary people really dare not.

After getting on the people in Nanli Village, after loading the goods, the train continued to set off, and once again began to cross the vast snow field.

At this time, it was getting late, it was completely dark, and the two golden shining stones installed on the locomotive lit up, illuminating the railway ahead. It was like a giant beast with its eyes open, forging ahead in the darkness.

Passengers on the train cooled from their initial excitement, and many began to doze off.

However, the facilities on the train are very simple, there are only seats, and everyone has to lean on the chairs to take a nap.

Seeing that Lilian was dozing off on the chair, Robb couldn't help turning his head to Marianne and Probo and said, "Your train is modeled after my diesel train, but my The diesel train is a short-distance train. It only runs between Xifeng Town and Rough Stone Canyon. The distance is very close, so some things are not installed. And your car has to run for a long distance, and it will run for more than ten hours at every turn. Therefore, you Something needs to be added.”

"Hey? What are you pretending to be?" Marianne asked drowsily.

Robb said: "The sleeping and auxiliary carriage!"

"What is a sleeping car?"

Robb gestured with his hand: "It's a carriage full of beds, with iron shelves made of upper and lower auxiliary parts, so that people who travel long distances can lie down and rest."

Marianne suddenly realized: "Oh, yes! I'm so sleepy right now, it would be great to have a bed to lie down on. The idea of ​​​​this sleeping car is very good, although it occupies a relatively large space, but as long as the ticket is sold No problem if it’s more expensive, nobles and merchants will definitely like it.”

Robb gave her a thumbs up: "You'll understand as soon as you hear it, so clever."

"No no no." Marianne said, "I didn't think about it at all before you made this suggestion. It means that I can only be called Xiaoqing, I have no creativity, and I can only run after others. Godfather wants to know if others are not. What you think of is great wisdom.”

Chapter 554 Who dares to spit your groove

The next morning, the golden sunlight shone diagonally from the eastern sky, making the snowfield glow bright and dazzling.

Lillian was yelling excitedly out the window again.

Robb couldn't help but greeted: "Lillian, don't stare at the snow, beware of snow blindness. The reflectivity of snow to sunlight is extremely high, reaching nearly 95%. Looking directly at the snow is like looking directly at the sun. May cause temporary blindness."

"Ah? Will my eyes be blind?" Lilian was so startled that she didn't dare to look out the window again.

However, when the car approached the road of light, Lilian couldn't help it after all, and probed out again.

Ahead is the tall and majestic road of light. The towering black city wall looks majestic and domineering, and Lilian couldn't help but let out a "wow" exclamation.

The railway station is not built inside the city wall of the road of light, but outside the city wall, probably because a big city like the road of light has a majestic and majestic city wall. a hole? That would only greatly increase the difficulty of defending the city and make it cheaper for the enemy to attack.

So it is not difficult to understand that the railway station is built outside the city walls.

Robb saw from a distance that there were many people piling up at the train station, tiptoeing in anticipation of the arrival of the train. They were all looking at the western scenery, and there were many nobles among them. The guards on the city wall actually have a virtue, and they all look at this side eagerly.

When the train entered the station, the crowd standing on both sides of the platform made a huge noise: "Wow!"
