The fastest update of "Lord of Pro" [630kan]
Chapter 267: Tuberose of Black Rock Slope
When they arrived at Heishipo, everyone got off the train.
This was Li Banfeng’s first time to Heishipo. Not long after getting off the car, he sensed the different atmosphere of this city.
The atmosphere of Heishipo is different from other places. Li Banfeng has exquisite skills and can deeply feel the difference.
There is a smooth sweetness in Kudaikan, the aroma of food in Haichiling, a unique tranquility in Tiemenbao, and a fragrant luxury in Lushuicheng.
The smell of Heishipao is stronger. In summary, there are three main types: smoke, ash, and engine oil.
The sky here is obviously darker than other places. When you get out of the station and look around, you can see chimneys of varying heights everywhere.
In an era when electricity could not be used on a large scale, steam was used to the extreme, and coal was the most important "food" for steam engines.
Heishipo has three special products: iron ore, stone and coal.
Part of these three specialties were transported to various parts of Provo, and part of them were processed into commodities locally.
This determines the special nature of Heishipo, which is a very pure industrial city.
Xiao Chuanzi arrived first and had already found accommodation for everyone. Li Banfeng was still looking for a car, but Xiao Chuanzi had already prepared it.
It's not a horse-drawn carriage or a rickshaw, it's a steam carriage.
The steam locomotive pulled two carriages along the narrow rails, traveling through the streets and alleys.
Isn't this a train?
The only difference from a normal train is that this train is smaller, small enough to fit into an alley.
Heishipo is such a city. Unlike Lvshui City with its well-connected roads, all the roads here have been turned into railways. Although the noise is a bit louder and the air quality is a bit worse, there are trains available for you to take when you go out.
This reminded Li Banfeng of the light rail in Yuezhou City, but the light rail is a tram, and it always feels inferior to the steam locomotive.
Xiao Chuanzi said, "I heard from the workers here that Green Water City originally wanted to build a railway in the city, but those rich people disagreed. They thought it was noisy and dirty. I don't think it's a big deal. It's just some coal ash and loose soil. How dirty can it be?"
Xiao Chuanzi is an engineer, and Black Stone City is a holy place for him to practice. Every time a place is introduced, Xiao Chuanzi becomes very excited, although from the outside, these buildings look almost the same, densely packed, simple, with rough lines.
The train traveled for more than 40 minutes and stopped at a station. Everyone got off one after another and arrived at the house that Xiao Chuanzi had just bought.
For now, let's call it a house...
This place is very big.
After entering the gate, you will see a yard, and inside the yard is a huge building over 20 meters high.
This huge monster is a gray-white cube with pipes of different thicknesses all over its body. There is a chimney next to it that is taller than it.
Laymen think this is a building, but insiders know that this thing is one of the core equipment in the steam age. Its scientific name is steam generator, commonly known as boiler.
Walking further inside after passing the boiler, Li Banfeng saw spare parts and semi-finished machine tools scattered on the ground.
The parts and machine tools were rusty. Li Banfeng looked at Xiao Chuanzi and asked, "Is this a house?"
This is clearly an abandoned factory.
Xiao Chuanzi scratched his head and said, "Seventh Master, the house you want is not easy to find in Heishipo.
You said that it needs to be able to accommodate more than 30 people, and it needs to be private and not too conspicuous. Only this kind of place is suitable."
Li Banfeng frowned and asked, "Where do you live? In the factory?"
"That's not the case. There are buildings behind the factory."
There is a three-story building in the backyard of the factory. The first floor has a canteen, bathroom and toilet, and the second and third floors have more than a dozen rooms each.
There are many factories like this in Heishipo, and the residents of Heishipo are basically workers.
The workers work in the factory during the day and sleep in the factory at night. After they get married, they bring their families to live in the factory and rarely leave the factory.
Apart from working, don’t they have their own entertainment life?
have.
Go to the cinema and watch a movie.
Go to the tavern and have a drink.
Buy a newspaper and take a break.
When you have money, go to a special place and find a special person to have sex with you.
When you have no money, you can buy a magazine and come here once.
Workers have very tight schedules, and dance halls, theaters, salons, banquets... these things are not suitable for them.
Entertainment suitable for workers must, first, save time and second, be economical. This is also the main reason why the book and newspaper industry in Heishipo is particularly developed. This thing saves money and trouble and is easy to use.
Li Banfeng said to the writers Bai Qiusheng and Yu Wenqi, "You two have been to Heishipo before and know the rules here. Go and complete the formalities tomorrow. First, open a newspaper office, and then a magazine office."
"Procedures?" Bai Qiusheng shook his head. "No need for that. A printing press is enough to open a newspaper in Heishipo."
Yu Wenqi said, "Opening a magazine is a little more complicated. You need a camera."
Li Banfeng was surprised and asked, "You can open a newspaper with just a printing press?"
Bai Qiusheng said, "Yes! We'll write the manuscript tonight and do the typeset work tomorrow. You can arrange for someone to buy the printing press. It will be ready for tomorrow's evening edition."
Li Banfeng was stunned for a long time and said, "The newspaper office hasn't even opened yet, and you're rushing to publish tomorrow's evening edition? Are you telling jokes? What do you use to write articles? Is there any news?"
Yu Wenqi said: "News is easy. Just find a few big newspapers and copy two articles. Our newspaper mainly sells comments and stories. Why can't we read news? The key thing is to write something powerful!"
"Nonsense?" Li Banfeng still didn't understand. "Who would you sell a newspaper written by nonsense to?"
The two writers didn't know how to explain, so Xiao Chuanzi said, "Seventh Master, I'll take you to the newspaper car, and you'll understand."
Xiao Chuanzi took Li Banfeng and others to report the car.
The so-called newspaper car is a small house that sells newspapers and magazines. In Yuezhou, this thing is called a newsstand.
The newsstand in Heishipo is a little different. There are wheels under the small house, four wooden wheels and four iron wheels.
Normally the wooden wheels are on the ground, so the stall owner can pull the newsstand around.
Once it is pulled onto the railway, the pulley in the pavilion is controlled, the wooden wheel rises, and the iron wheel touches the ground. There is a hook in front of the newspaper car, which can be hung behind the train and follow it.
Li Banfeng entered the pavilion and glanced at the newspaper.
Li Banfeng recognized the newspapers from the Lu and Ling families, but he did not recognize most of the newspapers.
For example, the name of the evening newspaper "Yi Gan Liang" is very distinctive.
Li Banfeng glanced at the headline news: "Fake play becomes real, singing queen Xiao Xiufei, how deeply she gets into the role."
The first few sentences of the news talk about the interview of singer Xiao Xiufei before the release of the first part of "Blood Blade Detective".
When was this news? It’s been four months!
Can this be in the newspaper?
Li Banfeng was very curious and picked up the newspaper to take a look. The stall owner immediately stopped him and said, "Yi Gan Liang is 80 cents. You can't read it if you don't buy it."
Li Banfeng pointed at the newspapers of the Lu and Ling families and asked: "How much are these newspapers?"
"The Morning Post costs 30 cents, and the Evening Post costs 50 cents."
"Then why do you sell this "One Pole Bright" for 80 cents?"
"For this price, the product is genuine and effective, no deception!"
What do you mean it works immediately? It means the medicine works as soon as it arrives!
Li Banfeng despised the stall owner and paid 80 cents to buy a copy of "Yi Gan Liang".
You know what, it really worked. As soon as I saw the front page, Li Banfeng's pole lit up.
The news on the front page described in depth the process of Xiao Xiufei's entry into the role from different angles. The language was simple but the content was detailed. The feelings of the male lead, the experience of the female lead, the touch of the photographer, and the memories of the cleaning lady were all described very well, which was even more exciting than the movie itself.
Before he had time to read the remaining editions, Li Banfeng noticed a magazine.
The magazine is called "Blood Gun Detective Five".
My movie has been published for three years, and his magazine has been published for five years?
The woman on the cover is very beautiful, with a very distinctive figure and clothes.
She has a very graceful figure.
As for clothing, there is no clothing.
"How much is this magazine?"
"Five dollars and sixty."
"Isn't that too much? A movie ticket is only five dollars."
The stall owner sneered and said, "You don't understand. You buy a movie ticket and you can watch it once. Besides, Bloodshot is not allowed to be watched now.
Buy this magazine and read it as many times as you want. I'll also give you a poster as a gift."
The stall owner had just displayed half of the poster when Li Banfeng decided to buy it.
This poster has a conscience.
"I want that one, and that one..."
In just a few minutes, Li Banfeng spent more than a hundred yuan. The stall owner was so happy that he gave away more than twenty posters.
If Bai Qiusheng hadn't stopped him, Li Banfeng would have wanted to buy more.
When he returned to the factory, Ma Wu had already asked someone to clean up Li Banfeng's room and studied
