Chapter 185 The "flying taxi" is here! Let's set an example at the Su residence first
"Tongzi, send out a flying car to check out my yard!"
Upon seeing that fifty new "flying taxis" had been added to the "Transportation" list, Bai Mengran quickly asked the system to assemble one for her as a demonstration.
[Received. "Flying Taxi No. 1" has been deployed to the designated location for its host.]
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengran immediately jumped up from the sofa, eager to witness the true appearance of this "flying car" with her own eyes.
This time, she specifically chose a "flying taxi" with a non-traditional design because the colors of traditional styles are relatively monotonous, while this "flying taxi," as a means of transportation that greets customers on the street and can be hailed at will, needs to have a more eye-catching appearance.
That's why she chose this red and white tech-style "flying" car.
Whether galloping on the ground or soaring in the sky, it will surely become an eye-catching sight.
As Bai Mengran stepped out of the villa, she immediately spotted the high-tech red and white "flying car" parked in front of her garage.
It resembles a fusion of a car and a helicopter, with wings that, while not particularly wide, extend gracefully outwards.
The rear of the car is also equipped with a pair of small spoilers, making the overall design both stylish and practical.
The words "Fairyland Flying Taxi" are clearly and prominently displayed on the body, front, and wings of the vehicle, making it easily recognizable to passengers.
"The model doesn't look very big, but the actual object is much larger!"
Bai Mengran looked at the "flying car" in front of her, which was a size larger than a regular car, and couldn't help but sigh.
However, she thinks it's a good thing because a larger interior space would be more comfortable and user-friendly for passengers.
She then walked over, gently opened the passenger door, and got in.
"Hello boss, I'm Pilot Number One, it's my pleasure to serve you."
In the transparent, fully isolated driver's seat, a handsome AI driver dressed in a Tang suit greeted her with a warm smile.
It seems that the system understands her aesthetic sense. Even the AI driver that was given to her is very good-looking. He looks like a handsome young man with long hair tied up and dressed in ancient costume, so that no one can detect anything unusual about him.
“Number One, please navigate to the Su residence in Taoyuan Town first. I plan to go there with you to try and get a job,” Bai Mengran said.
She mainly wanted to experience the feeling of flying, so she decided to go to Su Yingying's house, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, to give her a surprise.
I heard that Wanlu Academy is closed today, and Bai Mengran has already seen several students from the academy in the [Fairyland].
Normally, these students would be studying at the academy in the morning, but today they had some free time.
She had just run into a familiar face from the academy at a restaurant in town, and it was from that person that she learned about the holiday.
"Okay, boss. The destination for this trip is [Su Mansion (Su Mu)]. The route planning has been completed."
Due to the short distance, we will proceed directly by land, with an estimated travel time of forty seconds. We will fasten Mr. Bai's seatbelt shortly and prepare to depart.
The driver, Number One, made the announcement in his refined and pleasant ancient-style voice, which surprised Bai Mengran slightly, but she had to admit that the voice was indeed very pleasant to hear.
In the brief moment her mind wandered, the seatbelt on Fei's seat extended from behind, crossed her chest, and automatically fastened.
This made Bai Mengran exclaim in her heart once again, the automatic seat belt design is simply amazing!
The next second, the "flying taxi" that Bai Mengran was riding had already taken her to an open space outside the gate of [Fairyland], and then sped along Huanxi Street.
Because it started from zero speed, the sudden acceleration gave her a strong feeling of being pushed back, and she was firmly attached to the back of the seat. This feeling was extremely exciting.
Immediately afterwards, she felt almost nothing else, only seeing the scenery outside the window flash by as if teleported, demonstrating the astonishing speed of the "flying car".
Having witnessed the public horse-drawn carriages before, the people of Taoyuan Town were no longer as surprised as before when they saw such high-speed vehicles speeding along the road.
When they saw the red and white car flash by, they all started whispering among themselves.
"Did you see that thing moving so fast just now? I bet it came from [Fairyland]!" one of them said.
“I guessed so. There are so many new things in [Fairyland]. I heard that those things were originally used by the gods in heaven. Recently, the immortals descended to our Peach Blossom Town and brought many divine objects from heaven…” another person chimed in, pretending to be mysterious.
A passing man stopped and joined the conversation after hearing this: "I've heard about it too. Did any of you ride the shared bicycles in town today? They're celestial horses from heaven, they can even understand human speech, they're amazing!"
The kiln worker, who had just finished his work, was intrigued: "I just finished work and haven't had a chance to go and take a look yet."
"Now that you mention it, I'll go rent one and experience this celestial horse too..."
"Then you'd better hurry. The word has spread throughout town that you can rent a horse for half an hour for just one coin. Who wouldn't want to rent one and try it out!"
"I just passed by a horse rental area, and all the shared bicycles were rented out. There were quite a few people queuing up to return their horses!" a passerby said.
The kiln worker was surprised: "Huh? It's only been half a day and it's already so scarce? When I went out this morning, the horses were still parked there and no one was lending them out..."
"When it was first launched this morning, everyone was watching and waiting. When they saw someone riding a Weifeng, they naturally rushed to rent one too..." explained a knowledgeable passerby.
“Brother is right. I’m really looking forward to [Fairyland] getting better and better. When that happens, our Peach Blossom Town will be the first to benefit!” said the kiln worker.
“Our town has really made something of itself these days. I’ve heard that many people from other counties have come here recently!” another person remarked.
"Hey, tell me, what was that red and white car that just drove by?"
……
People spontaneously stopped and chatted on the street. The news about the "Fairyland" had become a topic of conversation in every household in Peach Blossom Town. There were very few people in Peach Blossom Town who hadn't heard of it.
Meanwhile, Bai Mengran, who was traveling to the Su residence in a red and white flying car without a sound, had already arrived outside the Su residence gate.
To be precise, it took them exactly forty seconds from the start of the journey to their destination.
The striking red and white flying car had barely stopped when it came to a stop, leaving the two gatekeepers of the Su residence completely bewildered.
The two looked at each other, unsure whether the strangely styled flying vehicle belonged to a guest of their household.
Just as they hesitated whether to go in and inform Butler Zhou, the door of what could be called a "car" opened, and a woman of unparalleled beauty stepped out...
As the young woman approached gracefully, the servants' eyes widened involuntarily, stunned by her beauty.
She...this...this celestial beauty...is walking towards me!
Ignoring the shock in their eyes, Bai Mengran smiled politely at them and asked, "Excuse me, is Miss Su Yingying of the Su family at home right now?"
