Initiating a Plant Revolution in the Otherworld

Chapter 304 There are tens of thousands of roads, safety is the first (two in one, ask for a ticket~)

Ron's words echoed in the empty carriage, and Illya, who was standing next to Ron, fell into deep thought.

After these words, she immediately entered the state of thinking, and judged whether the plan His Royal Highness Ron said was feasible.

After dozens of seconds, Illya confirmed that this set of plans is indeed a very good method from a theoretical point of view.

At least it is much more reliable than Illya's own idea of ​​"making elemental cars available to every household".

The cost of an elemental car, excluding the price of elemental potatoes, is about one or two hundred gold coins.

In other words, the total cost of the eight elemental carriages to Tanzania City is around 1000 gold coins.

Those eight hundred elemental carriages are worth 10 gold coins.

And that may not be enough for the residents of a city.

10 gold coins is not a particularly big burden for Ron today, but it is impossible to throw it out as a public welfare cause.

Even if the elemental carriage is sold at cost price, no ordinary family can afford it.

In the end, it can only become a new toy for the nobles.

This goes against Illya's original intention.

And His Royal Highness Ron's solution seems to have solved the above problems very well.

"His Royal Highness Ron, will this... bus charge when the time comes?" Illya asked.

Since buses are shared by people, there is no question of whether to sell them or not.

As a result, cost recovery will still be an issue.

"Of course there is a charge, and we're not really doing charity." Ron shrugged his shoulders, reached out and patted the coin storage box he placed in the place where he boarded the car at the front door, "One copper coin rides once, and most civilians can afford it." rise."

"If it's just going back and forth from work, there will be an extra two copper coins per day, and with the time saved along the way, they can do other things."

"It's equivalent to buying time with two copper coins. I think at least some people will be willing."

Ron could imagine that even if the bus was actually launched, it would not immediately cause a stir.

For common people, it is also good to save two copper coins.

Moreover, many people's jobs are not far from their homes, so there is absolutely no need to go to the bus.

But for Ron, it was a try.

Compared with extending the elemental carriages to every household, the cost is greatly reduced by only arranging a few buses in the city.

The cost of a bus like this is about five or six hundred gold coins.

With the size of a town like Tanzanian City, it is estimated that two buses, one horizontal and one vertical, are completely sufficient.

The cost of five hundred gold coins, converted into copper coins, is equivalent to 500 million copper coins, or 500 million passengers.

Ron used to have an average of 2400 passengers on the buses in the world in one day.

There must not be so many different worlds at the beginning, but when it becomes popular in the future, there may be hope for 1000 visitors a day.

In such a conversion, the cost can be recovered in about ten years...

This is bound to be a loss-making business.

But it is also much more reliable than directly promoting elemental carriages.

Ron can still afford just a few hundred gold coins or thousands of gold coins.

When the profits of the hot pot restaurant, element brand and various medicines catch up in the future, the investment of tens of thousands and tens of thousands will naturally be affordable.

He spends so much money by himself, even if he is given more than a dozen lifetimes, he may not be able to spend it all.

But if the money is spent on the construction of his own territory, it should be worth the money.

And after the construction of Tanzania City is very effective, it will attract the curiosity and imitation of other forces. Wouldn't it be necessary to buy commodities like buses from him?

You can't make money from common people, so you can make money from rich nobles.

Although these nobles are probably reluctant to use buses for civilian use, they are definitely willing to buy elemental carriages used to transport resources such as manpower, food, and minerals.

An elemental carriage costs one or two hundred gold coins, so I can sell it for three hundred gold coins, right?

There is also a free set of Elemental Potatoes for you.

But after a few months, the elemental potatoes are rotten, and you have to buy new elemental potatoes from me.

Otherwise, you will have to spend a lot of money to buy super consumables such as elemental stones.

The price/performance ratio is definitely not as good as elemental potatoes.

This may have some impact on the elemental stone market, but this is destined to be a long time later, and Ron is confident that he will have more say in that time.

At least it won't make people dare to provoke themselves easily.

Ever since he learned that he was likely to be forced to become the earl of the territory, Ron's thoughts have undergone subtle changes.

In the past, he always salted fish as long as he could. Unless the system launched a task with plant rewards, he always had the attitude of living a leisurely life.

And last winter, because the system released the main task of opening a flower shop branch in the Imperial City, Ron had to plunge into the muddy waters of the Imperial City.

He thought it would be enough to just open a branch and slip away, but the system set up a space transmission channel, completely tying him to the imperial city.

Of course, as long as he stays in Chaos City, it won't have much impact on his personal life.

However, a series of elemental card missions later made his bond with the imperial city deeper and deeper.

Until now, Ron has vaguely understood that even if he has no intention of fighting for the throne, in order to protect himself and the people around him, he must have his own basic board.

If the matter of the earl of the territory is confirmed this time, Tanzanite City will become Ron's next primary construction target.

The land in the imperial city and its surrounding areas has long been divided up.

After all, the City of Chaos area is a place governed by four clans, and it is not suitable as a base for personal forces. It is a good choice for a branch point for trade and circulation.

There is a space transmission channel, which is not a problem.

"Your Highness Ron, where are we going now?"

Illya's voice brought Ron back to his senses.

"Oh, let's go to the prayer house in the suburbs to pick up the nuns for shopping in the city, and test the performance of this bus by the way."

Ron replied: "You also find a seat to sit down, feel the effect, and talk about the riding experience when you come back."

"it is good."

Ilya nodded, turned around and walked towards the back seat, and finally chose the seat in the back corner.

The height of the last row of the bus is relatively high. After sitting down, you can see the whole interior of the bus clearly, which is most suitable for observation.

Looking at the layout in the car, Illya couldn't help admiring the plan His Royal Highness Ron just mentioned.

I don't know what His Royal Highness Ron usually thinks to think of such a practical way.

This must be after having a deep understanding of the ordinary life of the common people before they can come up with such a truly convenient method, right?

If such a person becomes the emperor of the Human Race Empire, he is far more suitable than those other people.

It's a pity...His Royal Highness Ron doesn't seem to have this ambition.

Ilya shook her head, put aside these distracting thoughts, and seriously experienced the feeling of taking the bus.

Ron, who was sitting in the driver's seat, drove seriously, holding the steering wheel and heading towards the prayer house.

One thing to say, it turns out that Ron in the original world has never even driven a small car a few times, and he got a driver's license just to be able to act as a drunk driver for his parents during the Chinese New Year.

In the end, when he arrived in another world, he even got on a bus.

Fortunately, he is now a Tier [-] fighter, and his control over his body is no longer what it used to be.

In addition, it is not too difficult to drive this car in the wilderness. Basically, after driving a few hundred meters, Ron has already started to get used to it.

The whole car was driving on the wasteland, and because of the uneven road, there were some bumps in the process.

However, after Ron turned the knob representing the "Lightness Array" of the wind magic circle, the whole body became lighter, and the bumps became much less.

To Ron, buses were nothing new.

But creating a magic version of the bus in a different world is enough to give him a sense of accomplishment.

Although this bus also relies on the steering wheel to control the direction, and it also relies on stepping on the "accelerator" to speed up, but the essential operating principle is completely different from Ron's original world.

It turns out that the bus in the world is an industrial machine.

But the current bus is a real magical machine.

In essence, the former and the latter are not the same principle at all, but they lead to the same goal in terms of usage.

In addition to the most basic mechanical principle of the wheel, the various movements of the car up and down all rely on the various magic circles engraved by Illya.

Of course, Ron also wanted to add some more labor-saving mechanical structures.

But he is a liberal arts student, how can he know this kind of knowledge?

It would be nice to be able to explain the function of the bus clearly.

Fortunately, Illya is indeed quite talented in this area, especially in the exquisite use of various inconspicuous magic circles, which is definitely much better than other magic circle masters.

Ever since, Ron was responsible for providing ideas, and Illya was responsible for implementing the ideas, and thus formed a combination.

The combination of new ideas in modern society and the magic circle of another world collided with wonderful sparks.

The bus slowly moved away from the experimental area, and gradually approached the planting area where the nuns were.

The Variety Radish breeding base here has expanded several times. If it hadn't been for the distribution of some staffs engraved with plant growth, the mahjong time of the nuns would have been drastically reduced.

It is more than four o'clock in the afternoon.

Every day at this time, more than a dozen nuns will go to the city to buy ingredients and supplement some daily necessities by the way.

In the past, Guy arranged for the coachman to drive the carriage to send the nuns into the city.

After Ron said hello in advance today, the coachmen happily took a day off with pay, so the nuns were surprised to find out why the carriage hadn't arrived today.

Within a few minutes, the dozen or so nuns waiting here saw a metal monster coming from another direction.

"Look! What's that!?"

"Everyone retreats, everyone retreats! Pay attention to protection!"

The nuns became nervous, thinking they had encountered some unknown creature.

As a result, when the metal monster approached, the sharp-eyed nun was surprised: "Isn't that His Royal Highness Ron? He won't be eaten by this monster, right?"

"... Doesn't it look like this?" The nun on the side looked suspiciously at His Royal Highness Ron who was waving at them behind the transparent windshield.

When Ron drove the bus to the front of the nuns, the nuns and aunts were still vigilant and retreated more than ten meters away.

Ron looked a little funny at the behavior of the nuns, but it was also understandable.

He turned the knob representing the front door.

The front door of the bus suddenly opened horizontally.

With the opening of the front door, there was a very cold female voice: "Hello passengers, please hold the handrail when getting on the bus, please go in after inserting coins, and pay attention to the safety of your feet."

The nuns looked at each other when they heard this voice, and they didn't go to the front door until Ron waved to them.

"Get in the car, I'll take you into the city today." Ron smiled at the nuns, "Remember to insert coins, one copper coin per person."

After confirming that there was no danger, the nuns and aunts immediately showed curious eyes.

The nun behind immediately urged: "Go up quickly."

So the nuns in front immediately boarded the bus, looked into the depths of the empty carriage, glanced around curiously, and then scrambled to take out the copper coins, and put them into the coin storage box under Ron's instructions.

They all looked excited.

It is the first time for civilians to take a bus, and they may have to hesitate whether to spend this copper coin.

The nuns obviously don't have this kind of thinking, but find it rather novel.

Listening to the crisp sound of copper coins colliding with the inner wall, after all the nuns got into the car, Ron turned the knob and closed the front door.

At the same time, the previous female voice sounded again in the car: "Hello passengers, please be careful when closing the door, and please hold the handrail when the vehicle starts."

Ilya was sitting in the last row, and hearing this voice that was so familiar again, she involuntarily turned her head and looked out of the car window, her cheeks flushed slightly with embarrassment.

His Royal Highness Ron said that the recording would be played back, but Ilya didn't think much of it.

But hearing her own voice personally made her feel quite ashamed.

If I knew it earlier, I would let Edith record it...

Thinking that this voice might be used on more buses, Ilya couldn't help covering her face, feeling very regretful.

Report the experience to His Royal Highness Ron after returning, and make sure to clarify this matter.

Well, my own voice is still too cold, Edith is obviously more suitable for this... Ilya convinced herself in her heart.

The nuns did not rush to find a seat after getting on the bus, but gathered at the front of the bus, chatting about the origin of the bus to His Royal Highness Ron.

"If you want to ask anything, go to the back and find a seat and sit down first. Ilya, who made this car, is behind. You can ask her while riding in the car."

Ron distractedly held the steering wheel and said:

"I'm driving right now, so don't bother me."

"When you come back after purchasing, each of you will write a 100-word ride report and tell me about your experience in this car."

The nuns responded one after another, and then came to the area behind, surrounded Ilya and began to ask questions.

Aunts are obviously full of talent in gossip.

After asking a few serious questions, the topic shifted to the relationship between Illya and Ron.

Illya is not as shy as ordinary girls, but said to the nuns and aunts very seriously: "Elf saints are forbidden to marry outsiders."

"It's just not getting married." The nuns and aunts laughed.

But they still knew how to measure, and they didn't get too entangled, and asked about the purpose of this bus.

Illya immediately brought out Ron's previous routine, which made the nuns stunned.

Compared with Illya, who is more receptive to this concept, these nuns and aunts obviously still need a certain amount of time to accept it.

In the eyes of most people in the different world, it is very unnecessary to provide almost free services to civilians.

Or rather "stupid".

If this was not His Royal Highness Ron's decision, the nuns would probably have shook their heads and rejected it now.

The bus drove all the way into the suburbs, attracting many people to stop and watch and be surprised.

When the bus arrived at the gate of the city, if he hadn't seen His Royal Highness Ron sitting in the driver's seat, the guards at the gate would have sounded the alarm by then.

After initially confirming that His Royal Highness Ron's car was not in danger, the gate guards let him go.

But still, two patrol teams were dispatched to follow Ron's bus all the way.

It's not that I'm worried that Ron will use this metal monster to do something bad.

It was simply because they saw such a thing for the first time, they were instinctively worried, afraid of any accidents.

Pedestrians saw such a big guy approaching, they took the initiative to avoid it, and looked around curiously.

Ron looked at this scene with a smile, and found it quite interesting. He rolled his eyes, stretched out his hand maliciously, and turned a knob.

The next moment, Yi Liya's cold female voice came from the outside of the bus: "There are thousands of roads, safety first, the traffic is irregular, and the relatives are crying."

Ilya, who was sitting in the back row, heard the voice and saw the stunned expressions of the passers-by. She was overwhelmed with shame, covered her face and stopped looking out the window.

When she was recording, she felt that His Highness Ron's smile was weird. If she had known it would be like this, she would never have recorded it...

Of course, Illya didn't know that Ron smiled because of the sentence itself.

Under the inexplicable stares of passers-by, Ron's bus stopped at the entrance of the vegetable market.

The nuns got out of the car and entered the vegetable market, spent more than ten minutes to resolve the battle, and then immediately returned to the car.

This time, Ron didn't speak, and the nuns put coins into the coin storage box one after another, all looking very happy, as if this matter was very interesting.

The bus started, passed through the city gate, and left the city of chaos.

Watching the metal monster go away, the city gate guards all heaved a sigh of relief, and then their unstoppable curiosity began to overflow.

I heard that His Royal Highness Ron has set up a magic war hall in the imperial city, and held a magic cup competition dedicated to fighting magic.

As a result, such a big guy came out here again.

All actions are really puzzling.

Ron didn't care about this. After sending the nuns to the prayer house, he told them to remember to write a 100-word ride experience, and then drove the bus back to the private experiment area.

Flushing Street Diary: Try to write out the detailed outline in the past few days, and it will be perfect in July.But it's still a mess for the time being, and it's a bit of a headache.So far, I have used many methods in writing the outline and details of this book. So far, the mode of timeline + event + clue is more suitable for me.But this is very time-consuming, every time I think about writing this thing, I don’t want to move... I don’t know how I wrote it last time...
