That morning, Little France went out early in the morning, ready to go to school. Little France's home is not far from the school, as usual, he doesn't need to go out so early.

But the situation is different recently, because the nearest road to the school was closed, it is said that it was because of some railway being built there. Nowadays, barbed wire fences are erected over there, and there are soldiers of the National Self-Defense Army in beautiful uniforms patrolling back and forth to prevent little mischiefs like Little France from getting into the ditch under the barbed wire fence.

There are often signs on these barbed wire fences with some words written on them, but Little Francis still doesn’t quite recognize it. According to Huaxi Te, who is two years older than him, this is a railway that the government is building. What construction safety is guaranteed, so people are forbidden to cross these places.

Of course, the government has also considered the issue of people walking, so they have left a few holes in some places to allow everyone to pass in an orderly manner. It’s just a long way to go to the opening.

Little naughty people like Little France were naturally unwilling to detour long distances. When the road was first closed, he took advantage of the patrolling National Self-Defense Forces to go far and drilled into the drain.

Little France got through the barbed wire easily, but when he jumped up from the ditch, he was not careful enough, and his schoolbag hung on the barbed wire. At this time, the National Self-Defense Forces who were patrolling just turned around and returned.

If you lose your schoolbag and run away, you can’t escape without losing your schoolbag. This is a hard-earned schoolbag. My mother sewed it up little by little with a rag that had been accumulated for many years. After going back, Dad will definitely let his **** bloom.

So little Francis was caught even with his schoolbag. A tall guy from the National Self-Defense Army flipped through his schoolbag, where his name and school class were in the textbook. The National Self-Defense Force took him to find a policeman, and gave the schoolbag and little France to the policeman. Then, naturally, the policeman took him to the school and gave him to the school's dean Mr. Ramadon. Then, Little France was given a severe lesson by Mr. Ramathon with a ruler, and then he was thrown to the head teacher Pila. After school, he was stayed by Mr. Pila to write a review. He wrote several times. After all, he was not put back until Mr. Pila was satisfied.

Then when he returned home, his father asked the truth in two sentences, and then little France was repaired again. Then, little Francis never drilled through the wire fence again. Instead, he took a detour.

From the opening left through, little France could clearly see what the workers were doing. They said it was paving the road, but at first they dug a long trench. Then the workers laid the large stones transported from other places in the trenches. After the paving, they laid smaller stones on it. After this layer was laid, it was basically the same as the original one. The road is level.

But this was not over yet, and then someone laid a thick layer of pebbles on it, until this layer of pebbles was significantly higher than the ground. Stacked into a tall trapezoid.

Then someone laid sleepers and rails on it.

Little France went home and told his father what he saw. His father thought about it and said, "This steel rail should be very valuable. There will definitely be more police officers here in the future. Go and steal the rails."

Later in the school, Mr. Duran, who taught science, taught Little France and them to read an article in the "Science Pravda" and told them what this kind of railway is used for. There is also a picture of a steam locomotive spewing out smoke in the "Science Pravda".

After attending that class, Little France and his classmates became more interested in such a magical thing as a train that can run on its own. But every time he passed by the intersection, Little France still only saw the railway that was being repaired and the railway that had been repaired, but never saw a steam train.

One morning, when passing by the intersection, Little France saw a car running fast on the railway, but it was not a painted train, but a strange one, two people pressing a seesaw. This is obviously not the steam locomotive mentioned in the newspaper.

But today's situation is a bit strange. When Little Francis arrived at the intersection that was specially set aside for people to pass through, he found that the intersection had been stopped by a rejection. A few people in blue uniforms stood behind the horse and shouted at everyone: "Don't worry, the train is coming soon. When the train passes, everyone can leave."

When everyone heard this scream, they got even more enthusiasm. After all, watching strangeness is a common hobby of people all over the world. So everyone squeezed forward together, vying for a good position to see what the train was.

Little France relied on his small size, arching and arching like a little loach, but he got to the front all at once.

"Where? Where?" Little France clasped his schoolbag with his hands tightly. When he was squeezing the schoolbag forward, he was afraid that he would break the strap of the schoolbag. Both eyes would go back and forth along the blue-glowing steel rail. Look around.

"Yes, where? Where?" More people shouted.

"Over there, over there, look over there, it's smoking!" a sharp-eyed man shouted.

Little France hurriedly looked over there, and she saw a moving plume of smoke far away, approaching here.

"That's the smoke from the chimney on the steam locomotive!" Little France learned this knowledge from the teacher when he was in science class, and at this time he couldn't help showing off to the people around him.

It's just that at this time, no one paid any attention to him at all, everyone's eyes were fixed on the plume. The speed of the smoke column seemed to be slow at first, but later, it appeared faster. At the same time, the impact of wheels and rails also began to spread into everyone's ears.

"Look, look, here comes!" someone shouted again.

After the train went around a curve, it really appeared in everyone's field of vision. Perhaps it was because it was approaching a level crossing, so the train slowed down a bit, and the driver had already pulled the whistle.

"Woo..."

The loud whistle shocked everyone.

"Oh, this is more scary than a hundred horses barking together." Someone said.

"Really...really majestic!" Someone said so.

At this time, the train is getting closer and closer. Everyone has never seen such a huge thing before, at such an astonishing speed, with the clang of steel hitting, and the permeating steam and smoke, with a kind of overwhelming Imposing, pounced straight.

"Ah!" Someone turned around and wanted to escape.

"Awesome!" someone cheered loudly.

But all these sounds were suppressed by the sound of the locomotive. The steam locomotive whizzed past everyone.

"There is still this long behind!"

"Like a long snake!"

Behind the locomotive is the towed truck. Some of these trucks are the kind with carriages, and some are just flatbed trucks. Nobody can see anything inside the carriage, but everyone can see the things on the flatbed. Some flatbed carts are dragging horse-drawn carriages, and other flatbed carts are more exciting, with various cannons directly on them. These are obviously the exhibits of the Pakistan Trade Fair that were sent to the Liberty Palace. Update the fastest computer terminal::/

The train ran so fast and passed by in the blink of an eye. Then a few people in black uniforms came up to move away from the horse, and traffic resumed.

In the days that followed, along the railway line, there were always people watching the train, and even some painters simply took a drawing board, a stand, and a small chair and sat there to sketch. For a time, this railway line turned out to be another scene in Paris.

At the same time, "Science Pravda" and some other newspapers also began to concentrate their efforts on a comprehensive report on this railway. "Scientific Pravda" even published an exclusive interview with Mr. Messier, executive director of the French railway transport company. In this interview, Messier revealed a secret that the main purpose of this railway from the Champ de Mars to the Liberty Palace is not freight, but passenger transport. The railway transportation company will officially launch the world's first passenger train on the opening day of the "Second Pakistan Fair". By then, the people of Paris can buy tickets to visit the Liberty Palace.

As for the fare issue that everyone must be very concerned about~lightnovelpub.net~Mr. Messier said that the railway transportation company is an enterprise dedicated to providing better services to the people of France. We do passenger transportation in order not to make money. to serve the public. So the fare will certainly not be high, as long as the cost can be maintained. Of course, the company is still studying what the specific fare is.

Because Messier didn't reveal how much the ticket price was, many media began to play a guessing game. Many newspapers have begun to study the cost of the railway transportation company in a pretentious manner, and then, based on their estimated cost, speculate on the fare of the "not profitable to serve the public".

However, under the arrangement of a caring person, these newspapers intentionally increased the operating cost of the railway transportation company, and the fare they obtained was naturally higher, although it is still cheaper than renting a carriage. Few, but the poor at the bottom still have to grit their teeth if they want to ride such a train.

Then Mr. Messier released the news, saying that the fare of railway passenger transportation was actually lower than the media's guess, "it is completely affordable for the workers in Paris." Because they will compensate the loss of low-price tickets with the high-grade luxury car fares prepared for the rich.

"We do passenger transportation in order to serve the public without making money." Finally, Mr. Messier once again emphasized this concept of the railway transportation company.
