Chapter 457: 456 Aboriginal

```

Currently, there is no direct railway service to the Midwest region, and the Union Pacific Railroad Company is engaged in a battle of wits and bravery with the local Indigenous people.

Zhu Wencong and his party first took a ship from Cleveland to Detroit, transferred from Lake Erie to Lake Huron, and passed through the Mackinac Strait into Lake Michigan.

Then, in Chicago, they changed to a horse-drawn carriage and, under the escort of Chicago police, arrived at the city of Davenport in Iowa, where they were met by UP's military escort.

The reason for such trouble was mainly that the railway was not yet fully connected; travel between the north and south mainly relied on water routes.

Land travel was the best choice, but you had to consider the bandits of this era who could do anything!

While there were no railways, there was the telegraph; Zhu Wencong sent a direct telegram, and the UP company knew what work needed to be done.
