Xianyang City, court hall

“Your Majesty, since the opening of the Xianluo Railway, the passenger flow along the line has increased by more than ten times.”

“Many people arrived in Luoyang along the Grand Canal, and then transferred to the train to go sightseeing in Xianyang City. Now, all the restaurants and inns in Xianyang City are full, and the demand for reservations has even been queued up to a month later.”

“In addition to passenger transport, freight trains are also growing rapidly. Nowadays, major merchants gather at the entrance of the freight center to compete for carriages. Just loading and unloading carriages creates thousands of jobs.”

Chen Ping introduced with a happy face:”Nowadays, all states, counties and counties in Daqin are asking for the construction of railways as soon as possible, even the Jiangnan area is no exception.”

“After seeing the grandeur of the Xianluo Railway, the Romans simply agreed to the cost of 20,000 yuan for one mile of land. The profit generated was enough for Daqin to build another Xianluo Railway.”

Li Si and others couldn’t help but take 10 deep breaths.

Although they had already expected the power of the railway, after hearing the specific figures, everyone was still a little unbelievable.

“It would be great if this railway could really connect all counties in Daqin!”

“By then, our Daqin will truly be a land of abundance everywhere!”

Meng Yi couldn’t help but feel that

“Can we consider accelerating the construction progress of the remaining railways by increasing manpower?”

Feng Jie asked.

“What currently plagues railway construction is not manpower, but the lack of manufacturing capacity and the inability to transport machinery and equipment in time due to complex terrain.”

“At present, the only way is to build one road and transport the other. If we want to really connect the railway to Persia County, it will take only two or three years, so don’t even think about it.”

“On the other hand, the Engineering Academy, in accordance with the request of His Highness the Crown Prince, is developing a way to equip sea-going ships with steam engines as power. It is said that if realized, the current time from Kuaiji to Persia can be shortened by more than one-third, and it can be completed within the year.”

“I also heard that the upgraded sea-going ship has a stronger carrying capacity and can even directly transport trains and railways to Persia County. If both sides start construction at the same time, more time can be saved.”

Chen Ping said with a smile.

“The railway is the foundation for our Daqin’s further expansion, and it must be done as soon as possible”

“By the way, I haven’t seen Fusu come to court these days. What are you busy with?”

Ying Zheng glanced at the court and said

“According to the Academy of Engineering, His Royal Highness has recently been researching new inventions. The manufacturing technology for this new type of sea-going ship steam engine was provided by His Royal Highness.”

“By the way, the Imperial Palace also received a request from His Highness the Crown Prince to organize a group of people with firefighting experience to start learning steam vehicle driving techniques. It was said that there will be a special steam fire truck for these people to do it. Be prepared.”

Nei Shiten opened his mouth and replied.

“The steam fire truck is a good thing. Nowadays, the city of Daqin is developing faster and faster, and the population is becoming more and more concentrated. Fire prevention is indeed a big problem.”

“The previous fire in Didao County burned for two days and two nights before it was extinguished. Dozens of people were killed and injured, and financial losses amounted to millions.”

“For this reason, the Metropolitan Procuratorate also dealt with a large number of officials who neglected their duties, but it was already too late. Li

Si said in a deep voice.

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.

At this moment, Fusu, who was mentioned repeatedly by everyone, stepped into the court, holding a black box in his hand.

“I was talking about you just now, Fusu, what good news did you bring to your father during this retreat and research?”

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

“Marine steam engines and steam fire trucks have just been introduced by ministers, so I won’t repeat them again.”

“In addition, the son also thought up a new thing and sent it to his father just after it was made.”

Fusu said with a smile.

“Fusu, you are showing off again.”

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

“When this new invention is shown next, there may be a bit of noise, so please stay away for now and be mentally prepared.”

Fusu said with a smile as he opened the box in his hand.

Li Si and others quickly backed away, becoming curious in their hearts.

Since the rise of Fusu, new inventions in Great Qin have begun to emerge one after another, and they and others have also He was well-informed, and he didn’t care about ordinary new things at all.

What could it be that could scare them all and require Fusu to say hello in advance?

The group of people couldn’t help but focus on the black box that Fusu was holding, but I checked it over and over for a long time, but couldn’t see anything. No matter how you look at it, it’s just an ordinary black box with a round opening. There seems to be a piece of glass in the round opening, but it’s found in every house nowadays. Glazed doors and windows are nothing new.

“Do you need your father to do anything?”(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Ying Zheng also said with a curious look on his face

“Father, just sit still and don’t move.”

“Very good, just like this, it can really show the majesty of the father.”

Fusu pointed the camera at Ying Zheng, adjusted the focus, and pressed the switch in his hand.

“Click!”[]

A bright white light flashed. Li Si and others were still stunned, but they saw that Fusu had taken back the black box.

“Is this good?”

Ying Zheng said with a confused look on his face.

“Well, the photography has been completed. All that’s left is to take out the negatives and develop them.”130

Fusu replied with a smile.

“Taking photos?”

Ying Zheng couldn’t help but become even more confused.

“It is a new type of film technology that can use the principle of mirroring to accurately transfer the image of the father to the film, and then enlarge and develop it onto the drawing. It will be a photo of the father himself.”

“This kind of photo is much more vivid than figure paintings and can more accurately show the image of the father. Fusu explained with a smile.

“Yeah?”

Ying Zheng said with a hint of surprise on his face.

As long as he is a person, he has the heart to show off himself, and a majestic talent like the First Emperor is no exception.

Before, Ying Zheng had many well-known painters paint pictures for himself. Many portraits were painted in the hope that later emperors and people of the Qin Dynasty could better admire their own image.

However, due to various reasons, there was still a big gap between these portraits and what the First Emperor saw of himself in the mirror, which made Ying Zheng I deeply regret it.

Now that Fusu has a new way to record his own image more accurately, Ying Zheng was instantly tempted.

Hundreds of officials gathered around one by one.

The reason why they are so dedicated is because they are not Is it just to leave a name in history and strive for a position in Lingyan Pavilion?

How could I miss this opportunity to record my image more accurately?
