The crisp sound of the bell accompanied by the rumbling of the stomach rang outside the restaurant for a long time. Tony grabbed the hemp rope, and only managed to resist the urge to knock on the door after a long while. He withdrew his hand awkwardly. Not only was he not going to receive him, but he was also not even bothered to look at him.
"It's your first time here, so you don't know the boss's temper. Even if our city lord came, Mr. Mak wouldn't open the door to welcome him when it's not business hours, let alone you." The coachman looked at Tony with a smile and a hint of pride in his eyes. "This is the best restaurant in our Chaos City, and it deserves to be the face of the restaurant. Mr. Mak was even the God of Cookery who won first place in the Roth Empire's king's palace banquet. He definitely has a temper."
"Alright, then I can only come and eat at night." Tony walked back to the horse-drawn carriage helplessly, but he was cursing in his heart. What God of Cookery? Could he make something as delicious as the spicy crayfish? In his eyes, Hades was the real God of Cookery. Just those three crayfish dishes were enough to make him a god.

"The locomotive is moving normally, and the bumps are within the acceptable range. The lane-changing sensitivity still needs to be fine-tuned, and the braking system has met the braking requirements …" Meg stood at the front of the locomotive, and spoke confidently as he looked at the Hill.
Chief Engineer Bourell and a group of steam locomotive engineers listened attentively. They nodded from time to time and frowned from time to time, but most of their faces were glowing with excitement.
Meg paused for a while, and smilingly said, "The test this time is very successful. We only need to optimize a few of the small problems that I mentioned just now, and we can cut into the actual track trial operation."
"That's great!" Bourell clenched his fists tightly. Although he tried to restrain himself, the veins on his red face still popped out.
"We did it!"
"We finally did it!!!"
Cheers broke out in the locomotive base instantly. The engineers and staff threw their hats up and shouted excitedly. Some even shed tears of excitement.
In order to turn the steam locomotive from a drawing into a real thing that could run on the track, this group of people had put in a lot of hard work. They had worked late into the night, and hadn't returned home for months. All their hard work had paid off in an instant.
When Meg saw this scene and heard the excited shouts, his heart also surged.
Perhaps that group of great people felt the same way when they saw the mushroom cloud rising in the desert.
"You have created a miracle," Meg said solemnly as he looked at Blair and all the engineers present.
Although he was the one who provided the blueprint, it was indeed a miracle that a group of people who had no idea what a steam engine was or why it could push a bunch of wheels and carry a lot of heavy objects forward were able to build this steam locomotive bit by bit.
Hill looked at this scene with a smile on her face. Although she did not understand the lines on the drawings, she knew how much work these engineers had done.
The steam locomotive was completed half a month earlier than expected, giving them more time to carry out their plan. Now, there was probably nothing more important than time.
"After the steam locomotive passes the trial run, everyone can go home and have a month of paid vacation. In addition to the salary that will be paid to your families on time every month, you will also receive a bonus." Hill looked at everyone and smiled.
The cheers stopped for a while, and then broke out into even more excited cheers.
The bonus from Miss Hill had never disappointed anyone.
With a generous bonus, they returned home after a few months of separation. The salary that had increased several times in the past few months was equivalent to several years of work in the past. A month of paid vacation could also make up for the time they were separated from their families.
Blair and Meg discussed some technical issues, and then Meg and Hill left the base in the same carriage.
"I think we should have a drink." Hill looked at Meg, who was sitting opposite her, and said with a smile.
"This is a good suggestion, but it's a pity that I have to go back and prepare for the evening business." Meg smiled and glanced at his watch. Today was indeed a good day. Being able to see the steam locomotive traveling on the tracks of the other world and listening to the sound, Meg already felt that a new era was coming.
The steam locomotive that spewed out white fog would inevitably change this world and accelerate the integration of this world.
Violence could not solve the problem. The world that was unified by Qin Shi Huang was still divided and united in the end.
Thus, they might as well break the borders and let them integrate with each other.
In the past, they did not want to travel far because of the inconvenience of transportation.
If they bought a train ticket at their doorstep, they could travel all over the world. With a wide range of knowledge, they would not be easily fooled into fighting and killing.
In this world, in addition to fighting and killing, there were so many beautiful scenery and delicious food to enjoy. Why should they risk their lives for others?
Meg did not hold the throat of this world's fate, but he might have thrown a handful of croton into the throat of this world.
As for how it would develop next, he could only try his best to be on the same side as Chaos City and try his best to control the overturning dragon that was technology and stir up the integration of the world. However, it was best not to capsize the boat.
Hill looked into Meg's eyes. Those clear eyes were still as calm as water. It was as if the steam locomotive's coming online had nothing to do with him. This calmness and composure made her feel a little inferior.
Although she looked very calm now, only she knew the feeling of her heart racing when she heard Meg say that the steam locomotive's test drive was successful. This could be an important moment that could change the world. Even when she was on the horse-drawn carriage, her mind was still a little muddled.
However, Mag was the one who came up with the idea of the steam locomotive. He was also the one who drew the blueprint. Even the first model was made by him. However, other than showing some emotion when he was cheering with all the engineers in the cave, his expression and emotions didn't change much.
"In the future, you might be a tycoon who controls 10% of the world's transportation lifelines. Do you still care so much about cooking for your customers?" Hill asked as she looked into Meg's eyes. Perhaps he had not realized what had just happened meant.
"When money reaches a certain amount, it is just a string of numbers. Miss Hill should know this better than I do." Meg looked at Hill with a smile, and said, "However, the joy of cooking cannot be measured by money. Cooking for your customers and watching them immerse themselves in it and feel happy is a blissful thing."
