Emperor Jing dropped the whip and looked out the window intently.
Fang Zhengyi continued to explain: "You must be curious about what is so magical about the railway that I spent countless money and endured tremendous pressure to build it."
"Today I will be honest with you all. I, Eastern Suburbs University, have put all my efforts into building a car that can move on its own. It is called a train!"
"You are not in a house now, but in a train carriage made by our East Suburb University!"
All the officials were shocked by this sentence.
Everyone knows that Tokyo University is researching self-driving cars, but they are still waiting to see the joke.
Fang Zhengyi made such a big fuss and risked his life to invite all these people... just to be a witness?
Having invested so much money, is he really sure?
And....were still in the carriage, not in the small room?
Many people began to look around, and for a moment they had forgotten Fang Zhengyi's crime of deceiving the emperor.
After calming down and taking a closer look, I really found something unusual!
Most people were still in the carriage outside the VIP room, which was decorated in a style different from the VIP carriage, which was like a study or living room.
The outer carriages only had rows of seats.
If it were a normal room, there would be absolutely no reason to have so many neatly arranged seats.
Then there is only one possibility, Fang Zhengyi is telling the truth!
Carriage...How can there be such a spacious carriage in the world?
"It's iron! The whole wall is made of iron!"
Someone screamed in surprise, and all the officials immediately rushed to the nearest "wall" and touched and knocked on it.
Li Yansong was shocked: "It's made of iron! It's really made of iron! If it's made of iron from beginning to end, how heavy would this train be?"
"How is that possible! We passed at least four carriages when we came in from the door. How many horses would it take to pull such a weight?"
"There is no horse in front of the car..." A voice sounded in people's hearts like thunder from the bottom of the ground.
Everyone's eyes returned to the driver's window, and their expressions were horrified.
Sure enough, there is no horse in front of the cart!
To sum up everything, there is only one possibility.
The legend that everyone treated as a joke was true...but how could such an iron car run by itself? Could it be that Fang Zhengyi had mastered the power of gods and ghosts?
Emperor Jing suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in them, and he no longer had the fury he had just shown.
"Drive this car quickly and tell me how it works."
Fang Zhengyi breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, he managed to get through it, and all the credit goes to him!
After entering the cab, Fang Zheng said to everyone, "Everyone, this is the source of the train's power. Because the space is small and there are too many people here, you can't hear clearly, so how about I explain the secret of the train to everyone after you experience it?"
"Everyone follow me, I will help you arrange seats."
Hearing that Fang Zhengyi did not explain, everyone couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
However, when Emperor Jing waved his hand and signaled everyone to disperse, everyone had no objections and followed Fang Zheng to find a seat.
Emperor Jing sat on the sofa and studied it out of curiosity.
First, Li Yansong and other powerful old ministers were arranged behind the VIP carriage.
This is a business seat, with a leather sofa for each person, a small table, and special humanized facilities such as headrests and cup holders.
This morning, bad things turned into surprises, and my emotions fluctuated greatly.
Li Yansong and others looked at the scenery outside the window and felt the soft seats under them. They felt comfortable and in a particularly good mood.
After settling this group of people, Fang Zhengyi continued to arrange seats for the lower floors.
Officials of lower ranks have hard seats, with three seats in a row sharing a small table.
All the seats are thoughtfully covered with blue cloth, and the headrests are covered with white cloth.
The overall facilities are almost no different from modern hard seats, but in Fangzhengyi, this is a business seat!
Although the treatment is much worse than that of old officials like Li Yansong, it seems okay. Everyone can sit together and chat, and it is lively.
Besides, my official position is low, so it doesn’t matter if I sit a little lower.
When it came to the lowest-ranking group of officials, Fang Zhengyi led them to the last section of the passenger carriage.
Pointing at the seats, he said, "Everyone, find a place to sit, they are all the same."
Looking at the hard seats, a group of minor officials in the carriage all fell silent.
Hard Seat
Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Master Fang, although we are of low status, you can't treat us as if we were not human beings! Is this a chair for people to sit on? Are you using it to raise chickens?"
"That's right, even a dog has to be stuck in there!"
"We want to sit in business class too!"
"We are human beings, we are human beings, we are human beings!!" a group of petty officials shouted indignantly.
The ox-horse carriage was in a commotion. Fang Zhengyi said with a dark face, "What are you arguing about! These seats are carefully designed to meet the needs of most people. If you want to sit in business class, go and ask your leader to change seats! Why are you yelling at me?"
"If it doesn't work, you can go and talk to His Majesty. I have no objection!"
When they heard him carry His Majesty out, everyone stopped talking...
Fang Zhengyi consoled them, "Alright, everyone, this experience will be over soon. Do you still want to sit in there for the whole day? Just make do for a while. I'm leaving now."
Back in the VIP carriage, Emperor Jing was sitting on the sofa with his horse and sword in his arms, and next to him was Li Yuanzhao, who was kneeling on the ground in a depressed state.
Seeing Fang Zheng coming back, Emperor Jing asked with some anticipation, "Is everything settled? Can we start now?"
