In the eyes of these people, the train can run so fast that it takes less than an hour to run from Huacheng to the dock. The ticket must be very expensive.

After all, for today's Chinese people, time is money.

If you have time, it will take most of the day to go to Huacheng. If you make a ox cart, you will need to delay a morning. If you pick up goods, it will take a whole day. If the weather is bad or you encounter a big traffic jam, the time will be even longer.

Moreover, there are too many ox carts transporting goods from the dock to Huacheng. A highway is now far from being loaded, and traffic jams are simply common.

It is abnormal to not have three or four days for a week, so when you go to Huacheng, the actual time is often much more than expected.

This train only takes an hour, saving time on the road, and working half a day at the construction site can make more than five yuan.

Even if it doesn’t count the time, it will cost one dollar to take a ox cart or another trip.

Therefore, their psychological expectation is that even if the ticket is five yuan, it can be accepted.

But after hearing their questions, the first batch of people who took the train immediately sneered.

"Five dollars? Why don't you grab it? You can buy two tickets for one dollar, and one can travel to Huacheng. In other words, one ticket costs 50 cents!" Gu Mu replied.

"Fifty cents? Don't lie to me. This is faster than a ox cart. Why is it so cheap?" someone exclaimed.

"Then you have to ask Lord Songye, he set the price, how do I know?"

Many smart people have already run towards the ticket hall. After confirming the ticket price, they are even more shocked.

When these people were shocked, those smarter people had already bought tickets, then spread their legs and ran towards the dock desperately.

There are more than ten minutes left before the next departure, so it should be time.

Some fresh fish on the pier are very cheap.

But in Huacheng, the price of a fresh fish is ten times that of a dock.

After all, the fish is not delicious if it is not fresh. Although Huacheng also has fish ponds, many fish cannot be raised.

If these fresh fish are transported to Huacheng, it requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

After all, ice cubes that can keep fresh are very expensive, and the weather is very hot now. Once a traffic jam occurs, the ice cubes melt and a truck of fresh fish is transported to the dock, and they become stinky fish.

So it is normal to have a higher price.

But now, it only takes an hour to get to Huacheng by train.

If you leave at 9:30, you can arrive in Huacheng before 10:30.

Now, even if you don’t use ice to keep it fresh, it won’t smell bad for an hour.

When you arrive in Huacheng, it is almost time to have lunch. You don’t have to worry about the sales of fresh fish. Huacheng has a population of 60,000 and more than 30 markets. Even if you take a train of fresh fish, you can still digest it.

A ten-fold difference, a ten-fold difference, only takes one hour, plus a 50-cent travel fee, making money is simply too simple.

Therefore, these economically savvy people immediately discovered huge business opportunities.

And it’s not just fish, but the daily necessities produced by various factories are sold in Huacheng. It can be said that as long as you can catch this train, you can make money by buying something at the dock and taking it over.

This money is simply easier to earn than the flood.

These smart people ran desperately, buying everything they could see in order to catch this train and earn this dollar.

They hate now, hate that they didn’t understand the train situation earlier, and hate that they had been delaying so much time when chatting with people outside the station.

If you know the news in advance, hire some people to buy things, or just pack a few carriages, can you get the down payment for buying a house in Huacheng?

But it’s not too late now. Although the time is short, as long as you can catch this train, you can still make a small amount of money.

Soon, half an hour came. At the entrance of the station, in addition to the more than 200 people who had just taken the bus and planned to take the bus back, there were more than 100 people carrying various things.

However, these speculators were blocked outside at the station entrance.

"Why? I bought a ticket, why don't I let me in?" A strong man carrying a cartilage fish roared angrily at the stand.

Cartilage fish is a specialty of Danhai. Its meat is delicious and its bones look like crisp bones. It can be said that it is one of the greatest gifts from Danhai to mankind.

But the biggest disadvantage of cartilage fish is that after being caught, it will become stinky in no time. If you want to transport it to Huacheng, you need to rely on a large amount of ice to keep it fresh.

And cartilage fish has another characteristic, that is, it is its relatively large size.

So, the ticket inspector looked at the cartilage fish on his back and roared: "Why don't you let you enter the station and you don't count it? Your cartilage fish has at least 400 kilograms. If you crush the train, you will be responsible? If you want to get in, you can't bring this fish!"

"I don't care. If you don't let me in, I will block the door. At worst, I won't go in!" The man said unreasonably.

The ticket inspector rolled his eyes and said, "It's blocked, I'm not in a hurry at all, at worst I can just wait for the car to drive away!"

Just as the two were arguing endlessly and were about to turn into a conflict, the webmaster walked out of it.

He held the horn and said, "People who carry the goods should also let them go, but they can only sit in the last ten cars to avoid affecting other passengers. Moreover, if they want to leave the station, if the cargo weighs more than 150 kilograms, they will receive another ticket. If the goods are dirty to the hygiene of the car, they will have to pay a sanitation fee of ten yuan!"

After hearing the webmaster's words, the man carrying the cartilage fish hurriedly said, "Yingming, you, the wise man of the official, just pay a few more dollars? It's all a little bit. I'll pay it, just let me get in the car!"

More than 400 kilograms of cartilage fish were transported to Huacheng by more than ten times the price difference, and at least it would have to earn 180 yuan.

Not to mention the sanitation fee of ten yuan and a small amount of train tickets, I will give it even if I want sanitation fee of twenty yuan.

In addition to the man who bought cartilage fish, the rest of the people also calculated in their minds.

The Chinese people are very strong. For ordinary people, a weight of 180 kilograms is effortless for them. They can carry a weight of 400 kilograms, so the weight of the things they carry is not light.

After following the webmaster's rules, after calculations, they found that as long as they could catch this train, even if they charged an additional fare, they would definitely make a profit.

So one by one, there is no refund because of this increased freight cost.

Soon, the train started and rumbling forward with a whistle. Outside the dock station, some late people gathered at the entrance of the station, holding tickets to ask if the train was still coming.

However, although it was opened to traffic today, the main purpose was to test the train, so it is not clear whether the train will come or not.

Things at the station soon spread throughout the dock.

The train was also blown to the sky by people.

By this time, no one said that laying the rails was a waste of money and money.

And some smart people have already seen huge business opportunities in it.

Of course, the impact of trains is not all good news, but for some people, it is like bad news.

For example, the lame A San.

Lame A San is an ordinary tribe. He accidentally broke his leg on the way to Huacheng.

However, there are more than 100,000 people in Huacheng and many disabled people. As long as they are willing to work hard, they can find a way to survive that suits them.

Lame Ah San is one of them.

He spent a year saving some money, borrowed some money from the money house in Huacheng, and bought a tamed bison and a ox cart.

By transporting people from the dock to Huacheng every day, he even saved enough money to buy a house in Huacheng. With a house, even if he had a limp, he found a wife.

Now that my wife is pregnant, she will be able to give birth in a few months. The money she earns every month can not only pay the mortgage, but also pay the loan from the money house.

After working for another year or two, he paid back all the money. He had a real home in Huacheng.

The weather is good today, so he set off in the early morning and took advantage of the fact that there were few cars on the road and there were few people. Although there were too many cars now, the road would definitely be very congested, in his opinion, he could still take a trip back to Huacheng.

Although life is a little harder, I can earn a lot of money every day. When I go back at night, I can also bring a hairtail fish to my wife to improve my life.

He didn't care about the bustling bus there, after all, for him, just pull the cart and live his own life.

However, the situation today puzzled him. He waited until ten o'clock, and the ox cart was not full of people.

According to the past market conditions, even if it is windy and rainy, the car should have already set off now.

Just when he was a little puzzled, a fellow traveler came back from the station in a daze.

"Old Wang, have you noticed today that there seem to be a lot fewer people!" Ah San asked strangely.

Lao Wang smiled bitterly and said, "Hehe, there are few people? After finishing today, wait for a change in career!"

"Change career? Don't joke. I haven't paid off my car loan yet and my legs are not flexible. Besides pulling a car, what else can I do to change careers?" A lame A San smiled.

"If you don't change your career, wait to starve to death. The train heard that it can pull thousands of people at once. It only takes half an hour to get from the dock to Huacheng. It costs only 50 cents per person, and the goods you pick are half cheaper than us. Who will take our car in the future?" Lao Wang couldn't help but roar.

After understanding the details, the lame San sat in the car decadently, looking at the big green cow who was leisurely eating grass in front of him, raised his whip with red eyes, and then let it go again dejected.

In one day, the topic of trains ignited the entire Chinese.

Everyone talks about the train.

On that day, the train was tested for the first time, not only did it stop, but instead ran back and forth three times.

After these three trips, more than 2,000 people boarded the train and tried the speed of lightning.

Later, whenever the train stopped, countless people at the station carried goods and tickets to get on the train.

However, the train lane is paved with wood after all.

Even though ironwood is comparable to steel in all aspects of performance, it is not real steel after all.

In order to avoid overuse, the number of people and the weight of cargo was limited every time the train departed later.

At the end of the day, train tickets alone sold for more than 70,000 yuan.

Although most of these people who bought tickets did not get on the bus, from this point, it can also be seen that the train is so popular.

At night, the lame San returned home.
