Chapter 395 The high-speed rail station opens, witnessing a historic moment!
"Tongzi, could the high-speed rail station be opened earlier? After all, the first high-speed train can only start operating after passengers have entered the station and bought tickets..."
Oh right, the site was all set up last night and can be launched anytime...
"Host, would you like to choose an auspicious time, or open it now?"
The system was so busy with setup that they forgot the site wasn't open yet, almost causing a major blunder...
Fortunately, the host is thoughtful and thought of this!
"Em... Let's open at 9:18 sharp then, it sounds like 'just about to get rich,' what a great meaning!"
【Alright, whatever you say, host. Let's wait a few more minutes...】
The system set the opening times for the twelve high-speed rail stations in the four prefectures in a second, and then plunged into setting up the high-speed rail-related matters.
Bai Mengran leaned back in her recliner, opened the real-time high-definition monitoring split screen for each site in the backend, and waited to watch it online, ready to witness this historic moment that was about to begin!
9:18.
The announcements inside and outside the "Fairyland" and around the twelve state high-speed rail stations on the first day of trial operation all sounded at the same time.
[Wait a minute~ Here comes some incredibly exciting news—]
Starting today, the [Fairyland Express] underground high-speed rail line connecting Fairyland to Beijing will be opened to traffic!
The section from [Fairyland] to [Tushan Prefecture] is the first to open today, passing through four major stations and twelve smaller stations: [Yunze Prefecture], [Yuetang Prefecture], [Zhongli Prefecture], and [Tushan Prefecture].
The starting station in Xianjing is located in the underground high-speed rail's dedicated waiting hall on the first basement level of the "Waiting and Rest Hall";
The final stop, [Fairyland Anzhou Station], is located near the parking lot on the right side outside Fairyland.
If you need to purchase tickets, please go to the ticket area in the high-speed rail waiting hall or the ticket office of each high-speed rail station to inquire and purchase tickets. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Meanwhile, members of the Wonderland Bracelet can also use the bracelet to check the ticket information for the latest trains and make reservations in advance.
In addition, during the three-day trial run of the underground high-speed rail, tickets for the entire journey will be offered at a 12% discount, after which the original price will be restored.
Please be aware that "Fairyland" in Taoyuan Town, Yongle County, Anzhou is a paradise that integrates beautiful scenery, delicious food, entertainment and other services, and will definitely exceed your expectations!
We cordially invite new and returning customers to visit us by high-speed rail. We look forward to your visit!
The news, once broadcast, was like a bolt from the blue, causing an uproar wherever it reached.
The guests inside the [Fairyland] had only been there a short time since the announcement of the new store's opening.
When the broadcast came on again, everyone was still unaware of the "major" nature of the matter and was jokingly speculating whether some new store had opened.
As the broadcast became clearer, the guests, who had initially listened with only a bit of curiosity, gradually became serious.
This information, far exceeding their expectations, truly astonished them; their eyes widened and their mouths slightly agape…
"My God... what did I just hear!"
That underground high-speed rail thing, it's about to open? It'll connect directly to other prefectures... and then it'll even go straight to the capital?!
"Is this some kind of joke? No, this sounds so unreal! Our Yongle County can actually connect to the capital? Good heavens..."
"Wait, didn't we just mention passing through Zhongli Prefecture? Oh my god, my hometown is in Jinzhou, Zhongli Prefecture!"
If this is true, I'll be able to visit my parents again in the future, which would be wonderful!
"In the past, a round trip would take more than a month, and I wouldn't be able to go back for years..."
"It's possible to get there, but I don't know how long it will take."
Judging from its name, it seems to come from underground passages? Underground! Is that really possible?
"Hey, are you guys just not thinking straight? You know, this is the work of [Fairyland]!"
What are you all still questioning here? Think about those public carriages and those "flying cars" from before, their speed was incredible!
This is called an underground high-speed rail; just hearing the name makes it sound even more impressive. It's definitely faster than the previous ones!
I reckon we might reach Yue Tang Prefecture, which is next to Yunze Prefecture, in a day or two.
"Hiss... Normally, even with a carriage, it would take at least ten days to get here, but now it's been shortened to one or two days? That's ridiculously fast..."
"Hehe, I was just guessing, but you can probably guess it'll be much older than before~"
"Hahahaha!"
Just then, a burly man in the crowd suddenly burst into loud laughter, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone around him.
He was so happy inside that he couldn't help but laugh so loudly.
Seeing everyone staring at him with strange looks, the big man felt a little embarrassed.
"Well... I didn't mean anything by it, I'm just so happy."
I happened to be traveling from Yuetang Prefecture to Anzhou on business, and I've heard a lot about this "fairyland" along the way, so I thought I'd come and see for myself...
I originally planned to stay here for half a day and then head back to Yuetang Prefecture. What a coincidence! I'm going to ask about the high-speed train service back to Yuetang Prefecture in a bit!
Upon hearing what had happened, everyone immediately understood and couldn't help but cast him a look full of envy.
This person is really lucky; they just arrived and caught this new gadget that [Fairyland] has just launched.
Unlike the locals, who can't even try it if they wanted to—if they sat on it, they probably wouldn't be able to get home...
Of course, most of these regular customers in the "Fairyland" are from within the county.
So when the news about the high-speed rail came out, most of them just gathered together to discuss it. They didn't actually need the high-speed rail for the time being, so they just treated it as another interesting story to hear and enjoyed it.
However, for stations other than [Wonderland Anju Station].
Those passersby who happened to be passing by and heard the strange announcement coming from the station stopped and listened intently with curiosity.
When they heard such an absurd rumor, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Almost no one believed it; they all thought it was just a joke, a way to make fun of them.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious! Listen to this, this joke is too outrageous! They actually said they could go directly from our Tushan Prefecture to Yunze Prefecture, which is hundreds of thousands of miles away?"
"Exactly! Putting aside our Tushan Prefecture, they actually have the audacity to claim they can reach the capital? If that's true, I'll stand upside down and eat three pounds of shit right here and now!"
"Ahem, young man, don't be so impulsive and reckless!"
If it's true or false, we'll find out once we go down and take a look, won't we?
Look at this door leading underground! It's opened sometime during the day!
In my opinion, this might actually be true...
