The next day was Saturday, so I didn’t have to go to work, which just gave Dong Chen and the others a time to adapt.

In the morning, they sent off the convoy full of cargo back to the Boulder Tribe, and they ushered in free time.

Yesterday, they had already made a little trip to Black Stone City. After all, they had a long way to sell things and buy things, especially when buying things, of course, they had to buy different things from different places.

In this way, Dazhuang and the others were more familiar with Black Stone City than Dong Chen, because Dong Chen only stayed in the academy for an afternoon.

We can have a good walk today.

They first went to the big square in the center of the city, which was indeed very prosperous, including sculptures, pools, pedestrians, luxury beast cars, various shops, etc. There was even a small garden in the center of the square, which opened the eyes of the barbarians of the giant stone tribe who lived in the terrifying forest all year round.

The clothes made of clothes are enough for them to be dazzled by the various styles and colors worn by people of all races.

This made Dong Chen see what cultural impact is, impacting Dazhuang and their huge but young hearts.

If he hadn't been watching them all the time, they might have spent all their money, but they would have received a bunch of useless things.

After being scared several times, Dazhuang and the others did not dare to buy things randomly. They practiced the unique skills of "just look but not buy", which made the old men who thought they could make a fortune so angry that they were irritated.

But looking at the super big guys of Dazhuang, they gave up their bold ideas.

A single big guy is actually very easy to cheat, and a group of big guys is even better to cheat, but when a smart human race, and several super big guys who can fight at first glance, they are not something that anyone can mess with. They can be beaten to death with a little mistake.

Especially this human race looks so smart and extremely powerful, and the barbarians still listen to him so much, so they do whatever they want. They must be a powerful person.

After restraining the barbarians and restraining their desire to buy things, Dong Chen also began to observe the square.

Unlike the barbarians who looked at it, Dong Chen did not focus his attention on exquisite goods and delicious food.

Of course, he did not focus his attention on the passing elf lady.

His eyes are mainly about some aspects that can see the development process of civilization, such as travel.

After observation, he found that there were some problems with the travel conditions here. There were really no vehicles for traveling alone or for civilians to travel alone.

Because the road is full of beast cars, if a rich man has urgent matters or is unwilling to walk, he can get one by waving his hand.

If most people have no money or are reluctant to spend this money, if they can't happen to buy a beast car with a few people who go along the way, they can only run. During the time when Dong Chen and his friends were shopping, they often saw people sweating running past them.

Some even carry baskets or food boxes. This is probably the first takeaway, which was found in ancient China, but I didn’t expect that it was still the steam era where I still delivered food.

Dong Chen also discovered that in addition to the real rich people who have their own special cars and use them whenever they want, it is not very convenient for some middle-level people to "take a taxi". In addition to having to wait, they may not be able to get it because there are not too many beast cars running, and some people can get it, while others can't get it.

Seeing another person running past him, Dong Chen murmured in Chinese, "This is too time-consuming. I have trains, but I don't have a bicycle yet?"

"All means of transportation are a little backward and cannot keep up with the development of the times. Can I point the technology tree of the development of transportation a little bit?"

Dazhuang and the others didn't understand what Dong Chen was saying, but they probably didn't ask them to buy things, so they continued to look at them and not buy them.

During the observation of this, Dong Chen did find traces of the use of the steam engine, but it seems that it has not been popular yet. It is like a train is in use, but every day there are still a large number of beast cars carrying heavy goods out of the city gate and walking towards the distance.

After a morning of traveling, he had a meal outside. Dong Chen finally took Dazhuang and others to transfer the city, looked at some needed places, and then inferred the development stage here.

This Black Stone City is a square surrounded by a city wall, with four gates in four directions. The east and west gates are normal city gates, while the south and north gates are a bit strange.

There is a river flowing through the south gate. According to people in the city, it flows to the sea. If Dong Chen is not wrong, it should be the entrance to the sea that he saw when he landed on the mainland from his hometown island.

The small river flowing next to the Boulder Tribe is its tributary.

Taking advantage of this advantage, they built a canal in the city, allowing the river's water to enter Blackstone City from the south gate, which not only provides Blackstone's water demand, but also becomes an important water transport port for them.

For ships, they are mainly paddling boats at close range and sailing boats at long distances. No ships using steam engines are seen.

The North Gate is similar to this place, but there is a railway there. Steam trains connect the imperial capital and several cities in the north through the railway.

The railway should not be open for a long time, probably only a few years. In the past few years, the barbarian predecessors should have seen this thing for the first time, so they were so surprised.

A great avenue runs across the east and west directions of Blackstone City, dividing Blackstone City into two halves, and there is a large square on the avenue in the center of the city, and the city is divided into four parts with this central point.

The Advanced Mechanical Academy is located on the southwest part of the city, next to the Central Avenue and not far from the Central Square.

Dong Chen also saw the mysterious Black Stone City Science and Technology Divine Clan branch. The equilateral triangle center dot sign on the wall is particularly conspicuous. It is located in the northeast part of Black Stone City, next to the avenue and square.

It can be said to be the tallest building in Blackstone City, reaching nine floors and covering a large area, which is larger and higher than the city lord's mansion and office area next to it.

From this point alone, you can know the strength of the Technological God Cult.

However, after looking at the tall barbarians with metal armor outside its door, Dong Chen did not approach, but pulled the barbarians of the Giant Stone Tribe who were all envious and left.

After a walk, I returned to the chamber of commerce dormitory. It was very close to the train station. This area is a cargo distribution center, both in the northwest direction of Blackstone City.

Because heavy animal trucks are not allowed to enter the city center, many goods are gathered here, either shipped to various parts of the city, or loaded on trains to transport to the distance.

Similarly, the train station cannot enter the inner ring of the city, so it is placed in the same place.

Dong Chen also found two towers above the city wall not far from the railway station. After asking the nearby people, he found out that it was the docking platform of the airship.

From this point of view, the long-distance transportation equipment in this world is still a bit interesting, but it seems that it has not yet fully developed and there is still a lot of things to dig.

Even to say, the overall development level of the Bi'anxing is roughly equivalent to the period when the Earth is about to undergo its first scientific and technological revolution.

That is, steam power has begun to be used, but there is no period of formal explosive development.

Coupled with the residual influence of "scientists" and the short development time from scratch for more than two thousand years, the development of the Star on the Riwan Star is somewhat unbalanced. The foundation for the great development of science and technology is already there, but there are still some shortcomings or obstacles.

Anyway, in Dong Chen's opinion, this place is simply a "broad world" for him and can "make great achievements".
