Chapter 2824: opening to change the environment

There is "Xugong Machinery", and there is also a "Luzon Heavy Industry!"

Under the leadership of the emperor, "Luzon Heavy Industry" was established to produce concrete machinery, excavation machinery, hoisting machinery, piling machinery, road construction machinery, etc., and the products overlapped with those of "XCMG Machinery" .

The registered place of "XCMG Machinery" is in Java Island, and the registered place of "Luzon Heavy Industry", as the name suggests, is in Luzon Island.

There are no Filipino maids on Luzon Island. There are large-scale machinery manufacturing companies such as "Luzon Heavy Industry", and the planting industry is an important industrial base of the empire.

Later, when people learned that the emperor had shares in both companies, they couldn't help but secretly wondered.

It is clear that the emperor advocates competition among the people, and the court implements checks and balances, and will not allow one side to dominate, whether it is the government or the people.

The steam excavator used in the "Dongtianmen" project is produced by "Xugong Machinery" in the east, and the steam excavator of "Luzon Heavy Industry" is used in the west. The two companies set up a platform, and their technicians Staying at the construction site, actively dealing with mechanical failures, sorting out user experience, and working hard!

The steam excavator leveled the road, so the road had to be leveled. In the past, the method used was manual leveling. The method was to form a circle with at least three people, use a rope to tie a heavy object, lift it up to hit the ground, and use gravity to level it. land.

Afterwards, use the oxen to drag large cylindrical stones to crush the ground.

The efficiency of the two leveling methods of manpower and animal power is low, slow and not good, and the effect is not good. The flat road is so-so, and the **** road is full of difficulties.

Under the guidance of the emperor, "Xugong Machinery" took the lead in successfully developing the steam roller.

"This is a difficult challenge," said Yan Jinsong, an engineer involved in the development.

Although they obtained the secrets of the manufacturing process of the steam engine through technology transfer, the engineers still had to carefully observe and learn how the boiler burns coal, how the gearbox controls the speed, etc., thinking about how to better control the steam power.

The first process is forging and casting. A large number of rough parts need to be produced. The task of the foundry workshop is the most arduous. From the group boss, experts, engineers to ordinary workers, they all live in the factory and work hard for a month. Only after testing, the first batch of qualified parts leave the factory.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and called this month's research a "monk" month.

In the face of enormous difficulties and challenges, XCMG devoted itself to this special "battle" from top to bottom and sacrificed itself, and successfully developed the world's first steam roller.

The first 10-ton steam roller was assembled, and the ignition operation ceremony was held!

The colorful flags fluttered on the square, attracting officials at all levels and citizens to watch. The driver sat in front of the console and waved his hand, and the assistants started the boiler, only to hear the cylinder panting and black smoke billowing. Wearing red hanging flowers on his head, he walked forward slowly, turned around in the square, and flattened the pre-placed road, which was fast and flat, far better than the previous human and animal pressure, especially on slopes. , no problem at all.

The onlookers burst into cheers, and the employees hugged and congratulated each other.

Afterwards, under the **** of people, the steam roller drove all the way out of the factory, passed the highway, and drove to the suburban road construction site for further tests and provided further scientific data to prepare for the next model of steam roller.

Technology first, and later, the empire specially issued silver coins to commemorate the use of steam excavators and steam rollers, making infrastructure madness even more powerful!

The mechanical equipment used also includes "steam transport vehicles", steam transport vehicles that can run on the road. Although they are stupid in the eyes of the emperor, they are incredible in the eyes of the people who saw the steam transport vehicles for the first time. .

The strength of this guy is so great, and it is really unparalleled to be able to drag so many stones and earthworks.

In addition to steam transport vehicles, there are more firepower and rails, open transport vehicles placed on rails, a small amount is transported by animal power, more is on small trains, and more is on large trains.

It took the Chinese only one year and three months to build a monorail from the northern seaport "New Yuzhou" (Darwin Port) to the construction site on the west side of the Great Dividing Range, a distance of 1,500 kilometers. The efficiency is so high that it is amazing Jaw-dropping.

With the railway, all kinds of heavy machinery, materials, supplies and personnel can be continuously transported to the construction site, which greatly speeds up the progress of the project.

After the project started, the entire empire was very concerned about its progress. The emperor, queen, prince and other high-ranking officials inspected the construction site successively, listened to reports, understood the progress of the project, and helped solve problems encountered.

For example, the empress is very concerned about the treatment and working conditions of the engineers. Shi Kechenghui reported: "We have adopted a working mode of three shifts and non-stop work. The engineers are divided into three batches, and each batch works eight hours. , and then rest for 16 hours, one day a week, one month every six months, and take them to the place they want to go by steamer. Through reasonable deployment of manpower, they will have a good rest and sufficient physical strength."

"Due to the rich income of engineering personnel, the average income is equivalent to the income of the middle class in the empire, and all of them are paid into their personal accounts. All personnel are highly motivated. Due to overtime pay, many people do not want to rest more, just want to work more! "

"They live in prefabricated houses, and their food is equivalent to the standard of a navy stove. They eat meat every day, and they often eat vegetables and fruits. They also improve their food during holidays!"

Shi Kecheng said that the main reason is that the project funds are in place, and he is grateful to the emperor and queen for their attention. With money, the project can be vigorously advanced and the task can be completed.

"As for the progress of the project, the method of incentives and competitions has been adopted, which has greatly improved the enthusiasm of the various engineering teams, and the project has progressed very quickly.

In this way, the project originally planned for ten years was completed in only eight and a half years. A 100-kilometer-wide opening was abruptly opened in the Great Dividing Range. The force was so explosive that it really moved mountains and seas.

In fact, in the fifth and sixth years of the project, the warm and humid air from the Pacific Ocean has continuously passed through this opening, increasing the amount of rain on the other side.

In the seventh year, a typhoon struck head-on, passed through this opening, and rushed towards the vast central area of ​​Tuao!

It was a time of strong winds, continuous torrential rain, and continuous downpours.

When the opening is completely penetrated, the clouds full of water vapor will continue to pass through the opening, bringing a large amount of sufficient water to the central area of ​​Tuao.

There is a lot of water, and even a large saltwater lake in the low-lying area in the middle of Tuao, which is more than 1,200 kilometers away from the opening, also received rainwater from the Pacific Ocean "gift~www.wuxiaspot.com~ According to meteorologists According to the introduction, they found that the saltwater lake continued to become thinner, mainly because the altitude of the saltwater lake was low, and the rainwater from the Pacific Ocean flowed here from above.

It was greatly affected. Although there are a large number of deserts in the central region, a large amount of water is stored under the desert and has not appeared. When it is supplemented by a large amount of water from outside, the water overflows the ground and forms lakes one after another.

The water evaporated from the lake. At this time, the subtropical high pressure is not allowed to show its power, because there is too much water, and the airflow is very strong. When the typhoon passes through, the subtropical high pressure belt has to give way!

The water rises into clouds, accumulates, and then rains.

What's more, the Nanhua Empire, which has tasted the sweetness, opened continuously from the central and southern parts of the Great Dividing Range, which is also 100 kilometers wide. The more abundant it is, and it spreads to the surroundings, so that the ecological environment of various places will be better.

On November 1, 1675 AD, the city of "New Yuzhou" (Darwin Port) in the northern seaport of Tu'ao was renamed "Kyushu" and became the new capital of the Nanhua Empire! 2084/10540207
