Zhang Xiaobao only suggested a few options, but did not directly specify which one was the most suitable. This was because he did not know how to do it better. If the imperial court finally came up with a plan, he would participate, but not lead.
When Wang Juan left with him, Li Longji and the others no longer continued to pay attention to the running of the train. They flew directly into the palace on the hot air balloon and gathered important ministers to discuss this matter.
On the way back, Wang Juan held Zhang Xiaobao's arm and asked softly, "Xiao Bao, tell me the truth. Do you know how to climb the train?"
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head twice and said firmly, "No, I really don't."
"Why not? You learned a lot of your skills in prison. Don't tell me there aren't any legendary experts in prison? "Wang Juan asked.
"There are masters, but there are no masters who can climb the train at least 200 kilometers per hour. Do you think the train of the railway guerrillas in the documentary film? Do you want to learn? Then we can try using the current trains. "
When Zhang Xiaobao answered, the scene of a train flashed in his mind. He could not help but shiver. From Chang'an to Tibet, the train that left in the morning and arrived in the evening referred to this kind of train. There was the fastest train, and it even saved more time than taking a plane to and from Tibet.
There was no master who could climb such a train.
Wang Juan smiled and leaned on Zhang Xiaobao. "That's more like it. I thought that my husband was not an ordinary person, but it turns out that there are also people who can't do it. Then, tell me, will there be people who climb the train halfway through? I'm afraid that someone will accidentally get stabbed to death, and I can't specially open a class for them to teach them what to pay attention to when climbing the train. "
"After hearing what you said, I'm really worried. The train route can't be like the river from Sanshui County, where there are bailiffs patrolling 24 hours a day. If that's really the case, it's better to use small carts to push the goods. The cost is too high. If there are strong young men who want to take a free train, they can just run a few steps, especially when the train has just left the station."
Zhang Xiaobao thought of the situation when a train was moving on the tracks. Especially when the truck arrived at a certain station, after filling up with water and coal, it started moving slowly and did not go too far.
After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaobao shook his head helplessly. "Your words remind me of India. A hundred years ago, the trains were packed with people. Even in our time, it's still packed with people. I can't help but admire it. Why don't we arrange a few people to hold down the train? Anyone who is caught climbing on the train will be severely punished."
"If you meet someone whose family isn't that rich to begin with, how would you judge? If he was locked up, how would his family survive? Fine and no money?
Let's not talk about India. As long as the racial system doesn't disappear, it won't be a good day. They're so stupid. They only know how to buy weapons, but when they buy them back, they can't use them. After fighting two small-scale local wars, the weapons are used up. Then, they spend money to buy more weapons and try to have more children. They have more people than our country. Do you think we should carry out propaganda and education? "
Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao were the same. One moment, they talked about this, and the next moment, they talked about something else.
Walking on the road, Zhang Xiaobao raised the hand that was not held by Wang Juan and casually moved it. He led Wang Juan into a small restaurant nearby. Coincidentally, there was a table by the window where someone had just finished eating. The two of them stood there and waited for the waiter to clean up. They casually ordered two plates of rice wine and prepared to eat.
"It seems that Takeshita Junichiro is anxious." Zhang Xiaobao's lips moved.
Wang Juan blinked twice to show that she understood. Because on the road, she also saw the people behind them. To be precise, they were thieves. It had been several days since she saw them by the lake that day. She had already investigated the origins of this group of people.
She just couldn't figure out how they were going to do it. Were they stupid and didn't know her and Xiao Bao's identity? Didn't they know how much the two of them valued their safety?
"I think the propaganda and education you mentioned just now is fine." Zhang Xiaobao changed the topic back to the previous matter.
"Since you said it's fine, why don't you take out a feasibility report. How do you plan to do it?" Wang Juan saw that her proposal was approved by Zhang Xiaobao and was very happy. She glanced at the two people who had just entered and no longer paid attention to them.
"There's no need to write a plan. We just need to catch him and bring him back to his village. We will write a big sign and hang it around his neck and parade him through the streets. We can even make a trip to the villages that are not related to him. Let him and his family lose face. He won't dare to do it again in the future."
After Zhang Xiaobao finished speaking, he raised his head and drank more than half a bowl of warm rice wine. He raised his arm to wipe the sweat on his forehead and looked around. He grinned and said, "A small restaurant is just a small restaurant. It doesn't even have a fan. It's so hot. You can just put an ice basin by the side."
"Don't nitpick. If we really install a fan, we will have to renovate the restaurant and increase the price of the dishes. Take it off when it's hot." Wang Juan rolled her eyes at Zhang Xiaobao. Her voice wasn't loud, but it could be heard by the people around them.
"It's not good to take it off, is it? It's not elegant. "Zhang Xiaobao replied shyly.
"Who's looking at you? You're so ugly."
"Oh." Zhang Xiaobao replied with an "Um". He really took off his shirt and casually threw it on a stool at the side of the aisle. He continued to drink with his upper body bared.
The people around them looked at Zhang Xiaobao in surprise. In the whole restaurant, he was the only one who dared to take off his shirt. Even the women who were eating couldn't help but glance at him. It couldn't be helped. He was too eye-catching. His skin was so white that it was obvious that he was from a rich family. However, the pieces of flesh on his body that were pleasing to the eye gave people another kind of feeling. It was a combination of contradictions.
"Shameless." Wang Juan muttered in a low voice and then asked, "You said just now that you want people to hang a big sign. It seems that you don't respect people. They also have human rights."
"Human rights or human life? Human rights? Do you want to give him a vote? Does he think that he's from our Sanshui County? Let's do it this way. Anyone who dares to climb on the bus in the future will hang a big sign and parade on the streets. Eh? There are people selling popsicles outside. Go and buy two for me. "
Zhang Xiaobao didn't care and insisted on his idea. When he turned his head, he just happened to see a person carrying a box wrapped in cotton cloth on his shoulder. He didn't need that person to shout to know what it was for.
During the summer, there were many people who specialized in selling popsicles. The real white sugar popsicles cost one copper coin for two. They were big and sweet.
"Won't he come over if you shout? Why don't you let the waiter go? I don't like to move in hot weather." Wang Juan said with a pout.
"Just do as I say. Otherwise, I won't be able to control you." Zhang Xiaobao stared at her.
"Yes. Husband, please wait for a moment. I'll be right back." Wang Juan glanced at Zhang Xiaobao and left her seat. She went outside to buy popsicles.
Zhang Xiaobao sat there and drank a mouthful of wine. He held his stomach and looked at the waiter. The waiter was also smart. He pointed inside. There was a side door. Zhang Xiaobao quickly rushed over.
"This person told me to buy popsicles and ran away. Waiter, did you see my husband?" After a while, Wang Juan came back with a popsicle in each hand. She glanced around and didn't see Zhang Xiaobao. She muttered to the waiter.
"Replying to you, I saw him. It's hot, so he went to the back to cool down. He probably drank too much water." The waiter replied very tactfully. He didn't directly say that her husband couldn't hold it in and went to the bathroom. After all, there were still people eating.
"Lazy people shit a lot." Wang Juan didn't care. She cursed and put down the popsicle. She took the clothes that Zhang Xiaobao took off and put them on the stool and pressed them beside her.
Not long after, Zhang Xiaobao came back with a relaxed expression. He first looked at the seats where the two people who had followed them in were sitting. When he realized that they had already left, he sat back down and picked up a popsicle. "They left?"
"They left. I watched the two of them leave. Stupid people are stupid people. We still have to find opportunities with them. Takeshita Junichiro found such a person. It's not that I'm looking down on him, but he's really not an opponent on the same level."
Wang Juan curled her lips and picked up a popsicle to eat. However, Zhang Xiaobao grabbed it. "It's cold. Don't you know what's wrong with you? You can't even touch cold water and you still want to eat popsicles. You've been nurturing yourself well since you were young. Are you planning to go all out? "
"Yes, I know my mistake. This time, the sea is going to be chaotic. Won't Xinluo and Japan go crazy fighting?" Wang Juan was at the Sunflower stage and had already formed a habit. Every time this happened, Zhang Xiaobao would not let her touch cold things. At night, he would cover her waist with a blanket from time to time when she slept. Other women had never had a sore waist and stomach.
Zhang Xiaobao poured half a bowl of warm rice wine for Wang Juan. "Drink this today. Go back and drink wine before going to bed at night. Chaos, it's good. If not, where can I find an opportunity? It's not easy to destroy a country without direct force."
"The situation in the sea is already tense enough. You still want to add fuel to the fire. Are you sure they don't dare to directly snatch our ship?"
Wang Juan took a sip of wine and stuffed a piece of lotus seed cake into her mouth. Her voice was muffled.
The information sent from the seaside had already described the situation there in detail. Xinluo wanted to go to the island next to Xinyuan Island to plant garlic and mine. Japan also wanted to go there, but Tang did not express its opinion. As a result, the two countries had many conflicts on the island and at sea. In addition, pirates appeared from time to time, causing people on both sides to suspect that it was the other side's doing.
They had already sent memorials to Li Longji to blame the other side, wanting Tang to help them deal with the other side. Li Longji's attitude was more ambiguous, and the result was the current situation.
Zhang Xiaobao picked up a piece of cucumber and threw it into his mouth. "The production of chili is not enough. If you sprinkle some chili powder into this cucumber, it will taste even better. Cucumbers have a lot of water, just enough to relieve the spiciness. As a result, the more you eat, the more spicy it becomes. The more spicy it is, the more you want to eat it.
I really hope that they will attack our ships. That way, your eight elite battalions will have a place to fight. If the transportation is convenient, it's best to go to Europe and see if England and France are still as awesome. Oh, I shouldn't call them that. England doesn't seem to be called England yet. France should be called France, right? Anyway, that's how it is. With eight thousand elite cavalry, we should be able to achieve good results. "
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand war. What do you mean by good results? As long as the logistics can keep up, I can flatten them all. Do you think guns and cannons are decorations? It's a pity that it's too far away. I can't kill everyone. If I get sick a few more times, I'll die there.
Let's take it slow. As long as I'm alive, I'll go there and take a look. Even if I can't fly there, I'll take a boat there and plant a few flags there. Regardless of what happens in the future, I'll make Tang an empire where the sun never sets. "
Wang Juan looked indifferent, as if she did not care about those countries.
"Yes, you're amazing. Then why didn't we occupy them back then?"
"It's because of the influence of the international situation. Otherwise, with our national strength back then, which country in Europe would be able to defeat us in a one on one battle? If we didn't throw a nuclear bomb, we would be able to defeat the United States even if it was a one on one battle. Alright, alright, let's not talk about the past. What's your purpose in renting the steam engine and the gunships to them? "
Wang Juan boasted to Zhang Xiaobao for a while. After satisfying her mental craving, she returned to the topic.
