He hijacked a system
Nobody knew how he managed to do all these things but he did it. Looking at him Richard finally opened his mouth.

Is it just me, I noticed that when Poul introduces himself, he would say “founder” versus When Johnatan does, he would always say “co-founder”.
"Poul Nielsen, founder of the Axelsen and Nielsen Air Brake Company and the Union Switch and Signal Company. The man standing next to me is Jonathan Axelsen, the co-founder of the company."

I know technology is useful and in some cases life saving, I do wish they would also look out for the interest of the workers too, with 5 workers per train and 100 trains per company, That’s going to be 500 people without a job per company.
"Well, if they don't care about their workers and prioritize profit. Then let's take a look at the statistics here," Poul came up with an answer and elaborated on it. "Normally, a railroad company would hire five to six brakemen for a steam locomotive pulling ten to fifteen cars. Each day, they receive about a dollar and a fifty for their work. That's ten and fifty dollars per week, 45 dollars per month, and 546 dollars per year. Remember, that's only for a single train. A railroad company is operating at least 100 to 200 steam locomotives.

Not if you live in a city. I line in New York and trains are as a popular mean of transport as cars and buses, and that’s with most station being dirty and rodent infested. Not to mention the constant delay and the forever lane closures due to “maintenance”. Otherwise train are the preferred mode of transport to navigate the congested city.
"Since we are introducing air brakes, how about we name our company, Axelsen & Nielsen Air Brake Company?"

Same here, can’t remember names either.
It was practically impossible for Zheng Ren, who had late-stage face blindness cancer, to remember anyone unless he met that person every day.

Home = family, love, cozy, relaxing, peaceful, the birthing place of memories, where you wish to go back to after a difficult day. House = a place to sleep
Prolonged poverty had restricted Zheng Ren's imagination and he could not understand the point Xia Yiren was trying to make. A house and home… The concept was the same, right?

Everyone from far and wide, welcome to the giving forest, it’s a gift that keeps on giving. Karen- I demand to speak with your manager. The only thing i got was getting robbed, chased down by wild animals and almost lost my life.
He would have to rename this forest. At this point, it could be called the giving forest. With the wolves and the bandits, in addition to his own workers and guards, it was like he was forming a small army. He felt even more equipped to deal with what was ahead.

No, you clearly signed his death sentence. That you did😏😏😋😋
Shen Chuan sighed. "I'm also very puzzled. I clearly told my father that you're Miss Su's cousin."

Same, spent time in the kitchen with my grandma being her little helper(AKA eating everything my hands could grab), or playing outide with the neighborhood kids. Late at night we gather around to eat snacks and tell jokes until the leafs we were burning to keep the mosquitoes away ran out, only then will we wash up to go to sleep.
To the children, this was probably the most satisfying moment of the day.

Aaahh,he got the credit again. I can feel FL nose and hears twitching.
Madam Zhou snorted. "What else can it be? She found a good husband! If I had such a handsome husband, I wouldn't be so lazy!"

I want my car to do that. It would have saved me from all those parking tickets i got. I’m really over NY lack of parking situation.😭😭😭😭😭
About five minutes later, he finally made it to the Northern Dormitories. Since there were too many outsiders on campus today, he clicked a hidden button on his bike's frame, causing it to fold in on itself and becoming a silver rod about two meters long. In the end, it further collapsed, splitting into four pieces that neatly fit into his bag.

Camerade Zai, are you perhaps using the same tactics you used in her second life. How cute...
Qiao Nan felt especially uneasy with Zhai Sheng sitting right beside her. It was in the middle of winter, and the heater had been turned on in the car. Moreover, the seats of the car were made of leather. Qiao Nan wondered if it was her own illusion that she felt as though she could feel the heat from Zhai Sheng's thighs because of the leather seats.

See this! I just gifted the story: Ice cola
As he said that, the matured Da Bao could no longer control his tears. "Master grandpa was the best at coaxing San Bao. San Bao listened to whatever master grandpa had to say. Great-grandpa was the best and could make Er Bao listen to him. Mom, what will I do? Without master grandpa and great-grandpa, I won't be able to take good care of Er Bao and San Bao. Do you think master grandpa and great-grandpa will be disappointed with me? I don't want them to leave. I want them to stay here by our side forever."

Nan Nan, I heard idiocy is contagious, you should stay further away from him and converse less, otherwise you might catch his dumbesatis.
A flock of imaginary cawing crows flew over Qiao Nan's head. She almost wanted to scold Deng Wenchang: Are you sick? What nonsense are you sprouting? Who is the one dreaming here?!

At this point old pal, I must say that you sound like a broken record. That's not the first time you've said that, but you would forget it as soon as you say it.
Qiao Dongliang sighed after a long while. There were mockery and bitterness on his face. "What's wrong with me? I just feel that I have aged and I can't keep up with the times and the changes in the way people think. I am old and incapable. I should admit that I have aged and that I can no longer keep a check on so many things. You and Nan Nan have grown up. You have your own way of thinking and have a mind of your own."
Urban · Scarlet Phoenix
I wish my flesh was as intelligent, they just grow everywhere nilly willy.
She almost asked Qiao Nan about her usual diet and whether she had any secret formula. Otherwise, why was the flesh on Qiao Nan's body so intelligent that they knew where to grow?
Urban · Scarlet Phoenix
I know, I know She learned it from the very best. Her mom thought her the not to pay part, and her dad thought her to forget about the lessons learned as a consequence of what was thought by mom, so she's not ashamed to commit the same mistakes over and over again.
"Do you mean you do not need to pay for it because it was an accident? Which teacher teaches you this?" Qiao Dongliang was angry.
Urban · Scarlet Phoenix
Yes she does behave so, after all her conscience was eaten by rabid dogs who thinks that if they eat someone's heart they would in turn grow one. So now all that remain is common sense. Don't personally see anything wrong with that.
Nothing had happened yet, but Nan Nan behaved as if she could not wait to draw a line between them and extricate herself. She behaved as if she had no conscience.

😅😅😅
Was someone chasing her?
