"Oh my god, this black dragon is moving!" Some superstitious people even knelt down and kowtowed to the train.

The black body was shrouded in smoke. In their eyes, what was this black dragon?

The steam locomotive was emitting black smoke, and its bulky body slowly started, and its speed began to increase slowly. It set off with thirty trucks of goods and Chu Yun and a dozen personal guards!

Mao Wenlong and others were stunned. Not only did they not imagine that there was such a steel giant beast under the green cloth, but the steel giant beast was like a black dragon coming to the world, and could move forward without any human or animal power, which made them doubt whether they were in a dream.

"What kind of monster is this..." A group of Jinyiwei prisoners looked at the train passing by them foolishly, unable to believe that they were still in the Ming Dynasty.

There were crowds of people on both sides of the railway. At first, the adults knelt down to the train, but later people began to cheer for Chu Yun and others who were driving the train. Then many young men and children ran along the train, and some people rode horses along the road, which was very lively.

Since the carriage is open-air, Chu Yun and others who are sitting in the bus carriage can see the scenery and the people who are cheering and shouting.

"Yu Cheng, please relax. There is not much difference between this train and a carriage. Just enjoy the scenery along the way." Chu Yun couldn't help but smile when he saw Yu Cheng and other personal guards looking nervous.

"Sir, aren't we really sitting on the black dragon?" Yu Cheng and his personal guards wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, but their tight muscles still couldn't relax.

"Why do you also believe that there is a black dragon? It seems that it is necessary to send you to the Academy of Sciences for further study." Chu Yun said with a smile.

"But if this is not a black dragon, how could it move by itself?" asked a personal guard.

"Then why can't it move on its own? We humans have the strength to work after we eat, and the same is true for this train, but it eats not food, but coal." Chu Yun explained.

"Can coal be eaten if it's too dark?" After hearing what Chu Yun said, the guards were puzzled and they just wanted to go back and find a piece of coal to taste it.

Chu Yun smiled. This is hard to explain.

The train is not fast, Chu Yun estimated that the speed is only ten or twenty kilometers per hour, and it takes several hours to get from Tieshan to Gaizhou City. However, the train is that it can work almost day and night, and it can be nearly 100 tons of cargo in one trip, which can be said to have won many large carriages.

Chu Yun set up a railway station in Gaizhou City as the end of this section of railway, with the purpose of transporting the coal mines and iron ore resources of Tieshan to Gaizhou City, and then transporting them from Gaizhou City to Fuzhou, Jinzhou and Dalian Port.

Near the railway station in Gaizhou City, a group of officials and officers were also anxiously waiting for the arrival of Chu Yun and others.

"Here, come!" The people on both sides of the railway tracks cheered. They saw black smoke rising from the distant horizon and gradually approaching with clanging sounds.

"It's a dragon, black dragon!" Seeing a train like a dragon coming from afar, the people of Gaizhou City were frightened, and they knelt down like workers on the other side of Tieshan.

"This is not a dragon, it's a train. The military leader said he wanted to take the train back, welcome it quickly." The officials in Gaizhou City were shocked when they saw the sudden appearance and the monster approaching at lightning.

But he had studied in the Academy of Sciences and had long since become less superstitious.

As the train got closer, the people became more and more frightened, shocked by the loud noises and bodies of the train. However, they saw Chu Yun and others on the train, and they couldn't help but wonder, could their adults already control the black dragon?

Woo! As the steam locomotive gradually approached the platform, its speed gradually decreased and it made a warning whistle sound.

Sigh, steam came out of the steam locomotive and finally stopped.

"Welcome to the city!" The officials of Gaizhou City trotted to the bus where Chu Yun was, waiting for Chu Yun to get off.

"I didn't expect it to be quite fast." Chu Yun and his personal guards came one by one and returned to Gaizhou City.

Yu Cheng and others had a little pale face. Their journey made them worried that they had just taken the train and they were nervous all the way. Until they got off the train and stood on the ground with their feet, they were relieved.

The train had just stopped, and black smoke and steam were still emitting, causing curious people to gather around to look around, wanting to see clearly what this black dragon looks like.

"Be careful not to touch this boiler," Stephenson reminded.

"Why is this black dragon like an iron lump, but it's really long."

"The newspaper said that this is not a black dragon, it is called a train. It is made of a lot of steel, just like a carriage, which can be used to transport goods."

"A carriage made of iron? No, why did the iron move itself?"

After the curious people approached the train, they found that it seemed that they were not the black dragon they imagined, but the carefully carved "iron block", and they pointed at them.

The ignorant people just watch the fun. But some of the merchants who are also watching the train have discovered the business opportunities. If the train is used to transport goods, wouldn’t it greatly reduce the transportation cost? There is no need to hire so many carriages and grooms?

Some merchants have even begun to have the idea of ​​discussing cooperation with the Fuliao Army, and are looking at whether Chu Yun wants to build a railway network between Dalian Port and the mainland city. There are big ships on the sea and carriages on the road, which is great!

"Looking back, we set up a government-run railway company, responsible for operating the railway, while the Railway Construction Committee is responsible for building the railway." Chu Yun was quite satisfied with the old-fashioned train. Of course, he wanted to separate construction and operation to prevent the railway from being monopolized by private individuals.

"Now your Railway Construction Committee is preparing to draft the construction of the major railway artery of Liaodong City, Anshan, Haizhou, Gaizhou, Fuzhou, Jinzhou and Dalian Port. This is our major project, connecting the main cities of southern Liao and Liaodong in the same line!" Chu Yun said to Stephenson after getting off the train.

Stephenson was overjoyed when he heard that Chu Yun wanted more railways. But he thought about building the Liaodong and Liaonan railway arteries, and was a little worried: "Sir, this plan is too complicated. I'm afraid with our manpower, it's a bit forced... Especially for the technicians, only our group of people can be competent. It will take a long time to train the next group of railway technical workers..."

"Haha, talking about railway technical engineers, I have really found a group of new talents for your Railway Construction Committee, and one of them may have the attainment of you." Chu Yun said with a smile.

"There are still people here who are better than me in railway engineering?" Stephenson didn't believe it.
