After more than ten hours of driving, the train slowly entered the station. Ye Zan took Li Haoran out of the carriage and came to the platform of the station. Looking at the back of the train, the businessmen directed a large number of people to quickly unload the goods from the train and load them onto carriages to transport them out of the station.
Li Haoran didn't think anything about such a scene, but Ye Zan always felt a sense of absurdity when he saw it. There are high-tech trains on one side and primitive carriages on the other. A large number of laborers move goods from the trains to the carriages like ants moving. It is like a performance art performance. However, there is no other way. Although Ye Zan has countless ways to replace this primitive labor, in order to let those people have food to eat, they can only give up those methods.
In the world of science and technology, one of the manifestations of technological development is the continuous liberation of the labor force, and the use of machines to gradually replace humans in various tasks.
However, many times "liberating the labor force" is just a nice word, but it actually means that some people lose their jobs. Some people have worked in a certain position for many years, constantly researching and improving their professional skills, and as a result, they come up with a professional machine, which suddenly turns their years of hard work into a joke. What's even worse is that he no longer has enough time and energy to relearn an unfamiliar professional skill.
Of course, this cannot be a reason to hinder the development of science and technology. In fact, this is not the fault of technological development. The key is to look at the person. Some big shots say "labor pain is inevitable", causing countless people at the bottom to become victims of labor pain. After all, Ye Zan is not a big shot, and he has not yet reached the stage where he regards all things as stupid dogs, so he can only find a way to solve the problem of labor pain. From a certain perspective, with a character like Ye Zan's, it may be that he is unlikely to become a great person.
"Those who unload cargo were originally dependent on transportation. Now they have joined the freight department of rail transportation. They are mainly responsible for loading and unloading cargo, as well as short-distance transportation of cargo. In this way, they will not be affected by rail transportation. appeared and lost their source of livelihood. At the same time, it is a useful supplement to rail transportation. These are all mentioned in the information given to you. Don’t think that this is a small matter. Once the Tang Dynasty also builds a rail transportation network. , If such people are not properly arranged, they will cause a lot of trouble," Ye Zan reminded Li Haoran.
During the more than ten hours on the train, Li Haoran had already read through the information on rail transportation and saw the content in this regard. As a prince, he didn't care much about it, but after hearing Ye Zan's reminder, which could be regarded as a warning, he really took the matter seriously, and quickly handed over his hands and said: "Master, don't worry, disciple. I will definitely comply with the requirements. ”
"Well, let's go. After seeing this rail train, I'll take you to meet a few people. I'm going to let them help you with Datang's rail transit construction in the future." After Ye Zan said this, he took Li Haoran and flew up In the air, it flew towards the steel fortress.
While going to the Steel Fortress, Ye Zan also contacted Cheng Liangqi and others, asking them to prepare to leave this world and then join him at the Steel Fortress.
Now in the small world of Immortal Palace, Yuqing Taoist Palace is on the right track, and the monks in the Taoist Palace have basically recognized their new identities. After all, they received a lot of benefits from the Yuqing Sect. Even if there were still people who were satisfied, they couldn't afford to spend much money. Therefore, there is no need for Cheng Liangqi and others to stabilize Yu Qingzong's people here. It is time to take them out to serve Yu Qingzong.
Soon, Ye Zan and Li Haoran arrived at the steel fortress near the Babel Tower.
Seeing the steel fortress, Li Haoran was surprised again. He thought to himself that if all the passes in the Tang Dynasty were like this, wouldn't the Tang Dynasty really be able to last forever
Ye Zan glanced at Li Haoran and knew where this kid was thinking, so he said: "Don't even think about this thing. Not to mention that you can't build it at all. Even if it is built, no matter how strong the pass is, It can also be breached from the inside.”
Hearing Ye Zan's words, Li Haoran's face suddenly turned red. He quickly bowed his hands and bowed deeply, saying: "What my uncle said is really the best way to govern a country. I have learned from it."
Ye Zan looked amused, waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't flatter me, I won't give it to you if you flatter me. Come with me, Fellow Daoist Cheng and the others are already inside."
When Ye Zan contacted Cheng Liangqi and others, he asked them to prepare to leave this world, but they were all looking forward to leaving all day long, so there was no need for any preparation. Therefore, after receiving the news, Cheng Liangqi and others did not dare to delay for a moment and rushed to the Steel Fortress early.
When they arrived at the Steel Fortress, Li Haoran behaved just like Cheng Liangqi and others before. Everywhere he looked he felt fresh and curious. For example, the door opened automatically, the corridor was very bright without a light, etc. Li Haoran felt like he was in another world.
Of course, in fact, Li Haoran is indeed equivalent to entering another world.
Soon, in the conference hall, Ye Zan and Li Haoran saw Cheng Liangqi and others who had been waiting here for a long time.
This time, in addition to Cheng Liangqi, Yang Bufan, and Qiao Ronghua, the people Ye Zan wanted to take out were six other Nascent Soul Ancestors. These nine Nascent Soul Ancestors are all already at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, and some of them have been stuck at this level for hundreds of years.
In fact, Ye Zan has ten quotas, but it is just to give Ye Xiao an identity, so one quota cannot be used. But this time, these nine Nascent Soul Ancestors can be regarded as allowing Ye Zan to use up all the quotas. In the future, only if there are further breakthroughs in cultivation, will he get more quotas.
"Come, Haoran, let me introduce you." Ye Zan brought Li Haoran to the front of the conference hall. He first introduced Li Haoran to everyone and said: "This is Li Haoran, an inner disciple of our sect, and also the third member of the Great Tang Kingdom in the Shenhua Domain. Prince."
"Disciple Li Haoran, pay homage to all the elders!" Li Haoran quickly saluted several Yuan Ying ancestors. Although he still doesn’t know what the names of these Yuan Ying ancestors are, Ye Zan has told him their identities as elders before.
"No need to be polite." Cheng Liangqi and others didn't know what Ye Zan meant by bringing an inner disciple here, but they also knew that this disciple should be favored by Ye Zan. Therefore, even though the other party was just a kid at the Foundation Establishment Realm, these Nascent Soul Ancestors did not appear to be that superior.
Then, Ye Zan began to introduce Li Haoran one by one, and Li Haoran also followed them one by one. After both parties got to know each other, Ye Zan took Li Haoran back to the front of the conference hall and said to Cheng Liangqi and others: "Elders, please come here this time. You all know what is going on. However, there is one more thing. Here is I am going to tell all the elders face to face. If any elder is unwilling, I will never force anyone to do so."
"Elder Ye, please speak. We are all ears." Cheng Liangqi and others said one after another.
"It's like this. I'm planning to build such a world-class rail transit in the Tang Dynasty, but some methods are not suitable for display to the outside world, so I can only trouble a few elders to help." Ye Zan said to Cheng Liangqi and others straight to the point.
In the small world, when building rail transit, Ye Zan used a large number of construction machinery. Naturally, this could not be hidden from the ascetics in this world. Originally, they might have thought that these methods of Ye Zan were relatively common in the Shenhua Realm outside, and that they and others were just rare and strange. But now, when Ye Zan said this, Cheng Liangqi and others could guess to some extent that there must be something in those methods that should not be known to outsiders.
However, when Ye Zan said this, he knew what Cheng Liangqi and the others would think of. However, he is not worried that this will bring trouble to him. After all, if Cheng Liangqi and others want to leave the small world, they need to leave the soul mark in the Taoist Arms Book. That is a kind of restriction that is more stringent than swearing any bitter oath. It can be said that those who control the Taoist military register can make their souls fly away with a single thought, so who dares to say anything
"What are you talking about, Elder Ye? If there is anything you need me to do, just tell me!" Cheng Liangqi and others hurriedly said to Ye Zan.
For ascetics, it is simply a huge shame to work for mortals. However, in this small world of Immortal Palace, the Dao Palace has always been closely integrated with the secular world, and often solves some problems for secular mortals. Therefore, Cheng Liangqi and others did not have much objection to what Ye Zan said about helping Datang build rail transit.
Ye Zan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll thank you elders first."
"Elder Ye is too polite." Cheng Liangqi and others returned the courtesy.
"Then, let me talk about what the elders have to do." As he spoke, Ye Zan displayed some simulated holographic images on the conference table, mainly to demonstrate to Cheng Liangqi and others. They needed Responsible for some tasks.
You know, although Ye Zan has made a lot of simplifications in the construction of this rail transit, some of the remaining basic work also needs to be standardized. It’s not just about letting these Nascent Soul Ancestors go around smashing the ground with the Panlong Golden Seal, there are also relatively strict “construction” standards for them.
Cheng Liangqi and others did not dare to be careless. They carefully watched the introduction of the simulation images, and occasionally asked Ye Zan some questions. They all obviously looked like engineers. After all, they are all Nascent Soul Ancestors, so it is relatively easy for them to learn and memorize these things.
After everyone had no questions, Ye Zan turned off the holographic image and said: "In addition to several elders, Elder Ye Xiao will also participate in this project. If you encounter any problems during the construction process, you can Ask Elder Ye Xiao. In addition, Elder Ye Xiao will come back regularly to bring you some facilities. In short, you can just follow his arrangements. "
This time, Ye Zan does not intend to waste a lot of time on building rail transit like he did on Qianli Sound Transmission. However, many things still need to be manufactured here, such as tracks and integrated roadbeds, not to mention the most critical trains. Therefore, he planned to let Ye Xiao take his place in all rail transit projects and be responsible for picking up and delivering those facility components.
Moreover, there is also an auxiliary chip in Ye Xiao's brain, and the entire rail transit design and construction can be completely installed in it, replacing Ye Zan's meticulous supervision of the progress of the project.
"Elder Ye, don't worry. We will strictly abide by Elder Ye Xiao's arrangements and help the Tang Dynasty complete these projects." Cheng Liangqi and others did not dare to say anything more about this. On the one hand, everyone knows that Ye Xiao is obviously Ye Zan's confidant. On the other hand, if something goes wrong, someone will take responsibility for themselves and others, so why not do it.
Things have been arranged like this, but the most critical point has not yet been implemented, and that is the intention of the leader of the Tang Dynasty. This question depends on how Li Haoran addresses it. Ye Zan is not ready to bring Li Shude to experience the rail train.
After everything was settled, Ye Zan took Li Haoran, Cheng Liangqi and others to the Babel Tower. The first of the three conditions that Mr. Tower mentioned before is to pass the test on the third floor of Babel Tower. This is not a problem for Cheng Liangqi and others. Moreover, except for Cheng Yangqiao and the other six Nascent Soul Ancestors, they had already passed these three levels ahead of schedule.
Therefore, the group of people went directly to the top floor of the Babel Tower and met the tower elder who presided over the Babel Tower.
"Boy, are you taking people out so soon?" asked Mr. Ta.
"Since Lao Ta is old, I would like to ask Ta Lao to ask for the debut military register." Ye Zan said with a smile and cupped his hands.
Ta Lao nodded, raised his hand and grabbed the void, and suddenly a curtain of light fell down, with a large number of names densely displayed on it, and then said: "This is the Taoist military register. Those who want to leave, here. Just leave your name and surname on the military register.”
Cheng Liangqi and others suppressed the excitement in their hearts, walked to the light curtain one by one, stretched out their hands in the blank space, and wrote their names. As the names and surnames were written down, the words flashed with light and instantly shrank and flew to the end of the dense list. At the same time, Cheng Liangqi and others also felt that there was a binding connection between their minds and this military register, which prevented them from having any evil thoughts towards Yu Qingzong.
When the nine Nascent Soul Ancestors had all left their names on the light screen, Ta Lao raised his hand to scatter the light screen, then waved to everyone and said, "Okay, let's go!"
Following Ta Lao's movements, everyone's figures disappeared from the place in an instant, and when they reappeared, they were already at Ye Zan's residence at Yuquan Peak.
"Elders, congratulations on coming to this world, do you feel any difference?" Ye Zan asked Cheng Liangqi and others with a smile.
Cheng Liangqi and others looked around. Although they could not see anything from their surroundings, as Yuanying ancestors, they could feel that the laws of heaven and earth here were very different from the previous small world. Here, they all felt a kind of pressure, as if their bodies were suddenly transported back to a mountain, and even the movement of mana in their bodies was not very flexible.
