The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 310 The Train Starts

Liu Xia sat at the desk. Wang En, Rui Junai, Hua Yanchi, the governor of Henan Province, Yin Feng Moyan of Henan Province (Luoyang), Li Jingran, Director of the Department of Industry and Commerce, and Zhao Xianwen, Deputy Director of the Department of Industry and Commerce, stood opposite Liu Xia. Stand respectfully.

They quietly waited for Liu Xia's pronunciation.

"I asked you to come here this time to discuss and build a new part together." Liu Xia said indifferently.

"New department?" Everyone looked at Liu Xia doubtfully.

Rui Junai wondered what department was built to call these senior officials over.

"I don't know if the prince wants to establish--" Rui Junai said this and looked at Liu Xia. Why didn't I get the news before?

Liu Xia's face was expressionless, and Rui Junai was puzzled.

"This time it is to build a transportation system. We transfer documents between all levels and departments, and the delivery of goods requires temporary personnel for transportation. I intend to establish a separate transportation system to be responsible for this work. Of course, it is not only for the personnel of our official departments, but also for the delivery of letters and goods to ordinary businessmen. You can also earn freight from it.

Hearing this, Rui Junai now understands what he is asking him to come over. After all, he is the director of the Civil Affairs Department. After all, this department is also involved in civil affairs and needs the support of the Civil Affairs Department. As for other political envoys from Henan and Luoyang Fuyin, they need to participate.

"I don't know how the prince wants to set up this department? What's your name again?" Li Jingran, Director of the Department of Industry and Commerce, asked.

Liu Xia said, "I plan to set up a postal department to be responsible for this matter. First of all, a postal system will be established and improved in the areas around Luoyang, Henan Province. Each county should set up a post office, and the postal department will issue stamps and print unified envelopes. The specific details have been written in this outline. You can take it back and have a look later.

"After the establishment of the Luoyang transportation system, it can slowly develop to other places, first establish a post office in the state office, and then slowly enter the following counties and towns. Gradually establish a complete system. The postal department can contact Luo Chengxian's railway company to deliver the goods to you by train. Of course, you also need to pay.

"The new postal department has Zhao Xianwen, the undersecretary of the Department of Industry and Commerce, and other departments need to cooperate. The new department is initially built, and the Financial Department will support it.

After listening to this, Zhao Xianwen suddenly showed a happy look on his face. Previously, he was just a deputy chief. Although his status seemed to be very high, he did not have real power. The real power was controlled by Li Jingran. But at this moment, he became the president of the Postal Department, which meant that he had real power, but he also knew that he must do a good job. Otherwise, there will definitely be no day in the future.

People are ambitious, just big and small.

In this way, with a few words from Liu Xia, a new department was established. Everyone is not surprised about this. After a morning's discussion, the matter of the postal department was basically agreed. The details of the specific things should not be worried about by Liu Xia, and they can do it well by themselves.

Early the next morning, Luo Chengxian came to the royal palace. This time, he came to invite Liu Xia to take the train. Yesterday, the invitation letter of the train had been sent to the person who should be sent, and this morning was the time to wait for the bus.

At this moment, the Luoyang Railway Station outside the east gate of Luoyang was full of people, which really stunned Luo Chengxian, so he hurriedly contacted the garrison in Luoyang City to maintain order. Many officials, businessmen' representatives, people's representatives, military subordinate representatives, and military representatives. Gradually, they all walked into the railway station. At present, the construction of this railway station is not too luxurious. After all, it is just an initial product.

Today, Luoyang is a reporter from all the newspapers in Henan, who came over for a live interview. It is estimated that this news will be on the front page of all newspapers the next day.

The people outside wanted to see the situation inside, and someone at the scene paid 5,000 silver coins to buy invitations, but no one sold them. Five thousand silver coins are equivalent to the current RMB of one million, which is enough for an ordinary family to spend half a lifetime, or even a lifetime.

"What a great honor it is to be able to enter the train and take the train with the prince. How can it be exchanged for those few silver coins? Who is the prince? That is the hope of our nation, the hero of our nation, and a fairy-like figure.

"Yes! I really didn't expect that I would have an invitation. Is it really eye-opening and blessed by my ancestors? Let me see the prince with my own eyes and take the same car with the prince.

In the railway station, hundreds of people have been sitting in the hall, waiting for the arrival of Liu Xia. At this moment, they are also smiling and talking. Luoyang is a large number of ordinary officials in Henan, but not many people can get this invitation, which is enough to show their extraordinary status.

It's the same. The people present are basically not the head of the department or the boss of the army. Which one is a simple person? This time, Chen Liu, Li Wen, Rui Junai, Bao Tiangong and many other departments have all arrived. They will take this train with Liu Xia.

In fact, this train is not too attractive, at least for Chen Liu, Rui Junai and others, because they are so high-ranking that they want to sit at any time. The main reason why the train is so eye-catching this time is that Liu Xia wants to board the train in person. If it hadn't been for Liu Xia, it would have been greatly reduced.

When it arrived, Liu Xia, under the protection of the guard, finally came out of the royal palace and came outside the railway station.

"Make way, make way. The prince is coming!"

The personnel of the guard shouted, and the people immediately exploded.

"The prince is here! Look at it!"

Looking along, under the protection of a team of guards, Liu Xia sat on the horse and was surrounded in the middle. There is also a fancy sedan chair next to it.

Although many people in Luoyang have seen Liu Xia, the status of these people in Liu Xia's hearts is really too high, and they have been blindly worshipped.

Soon these people spontaneously made way, and there was no need for the soldiers to clear the way out. This made Liu Xia sigh, but she was full of joy in her heart. It is always good for the people to be so loyal to themselves.

Liu Xia rode on the horse and waved her hands at the people on both sides. Liu Xia was very natural, but the members of the guards around him did not dare to relax at all. They stared at both sides and were afraid that someone would assassinate Liu Xia.

Nowadays, Liu Xia's safety is above all else. Now Liu Xia basically travels in Confucian clothes, and even many people forget that he used to be a general with strong martial arts.

After a while, Liu Xia entered Luoyang Railway Station, but the people outside still did not leave. In the fancy sedan chair sat Bian Yujing. As a princess, Liu Xia also invited her to try the taste of taking the train.

When Liu Xia walked into the railway station, hundreds of people in the room immediately got up and hurriedly bowed to Liu Xia respectfully.

"I've met the prince and princess!"

Liu Xia smiled and waved her hand and said, "Get up."

He glanced left and right and walked to the families of the soldiers to express his condolences. Bian Yujing always followed Liu Xia's side, with a smile on his face. The beauty of Bian Yujing fascinated everyone, but no one dared to see it.

After Liu Xia finished comforting the visitors, he walked to the carriage of the train under the leadership of Luo Chengxian.

Other people also followed Liu Xia.

"Let the chiefs of each department follow me to my carriage." Liu Xia said as she walked.

"Also, let some representatives of businessmen, representatives of the military, representatives of the people, and representatives of soldiers also find a few."

Luo Chengxian kept nodding.

"I understand, but these people have all passed by. Security issues, especially the representatives of the people, are randomly selected, which is not very safe." Luo Chengxian looked at Liu Xia with a little worry. After all, Liu Xia's safety is above everything else. If Liu Xia has an accident on his territory today, even if he doesn't die, he will have to peel off the skin. No one dares to neglect Liu Xia's safety.
