Chapter 416 Datang's first locomotive
"Boss, we have completed all the production and manufacturing tasks you arranged, you see?" "Okay, I'll go right away."
Excited, Yang Heng even shivered with excitement. You know, it was the first time he was so excited since he learned that he had traveled through time.
The train is the biggest project he has ever had in this era. Once this project is successful, the sky in the Tang Dynasty will slowly change, but it will not become bad, but will develop in a clear direction, and it will even develop to the point where it will be windy, rainy and rainy.
Trains and railways naturally involve transportation. Although communications and electricity are important, at the beginning of development, even at any stage, transportation is the top priority. Otherwise, there was a slogan in previous lives that if you want to be rich, build roads first. This road involves many aspects. In terms of military, it can allow the army or military materials to be transported to places where transportation is needed at the fastest speed.
In terms of economic construction, it can quickly spread goods without using a lot of manpower, material resources or even animal power to carry out transportation.
When used in disaster relief, it can transport disaster relief materials to the disaster area in a timely manner, ensuring that most people can survive.
"What, you said that Xuewen is assembling the so-called locomotive, have you seen it clearly?" "Yes, Your Majesty, my intelligence officers discovered from afar that even the prince-consort was there in person, and the voice was much louder. Obviously, he was very excited, and this action had never been done before, and even the assembly was carried out on the railway. According to me, that thing should be very big and heavy, so it was naturally the locomotive. Only this thing needs to be assembled on the railway. My people have not seen them make carriages before. Although the carriages were also done on the railway, the prince-consort would not come to the scene for those things."
Why do you look from a distance instead of looking close? Because Yang Heng isolated all the intelligence personnel in a very distant place. If there is anything that needs to be kept secret, he will arrest the nearby intelligence personnel. Even Li Er's people are not good. Since Li Er cheated Yang Heng last time, his intelligence personnel have been unable to make a move in the Yang family.
"Then, I'm going to the scene to check it out now." Li Er was anxious and excited. He naturally needed to take a good look at the things he had traveled one thousand days a day and eight hundred nights. This was something he didn't dare to think about.
"Your Majesty, I think you'd better wait for the son-in-law to invite you. I think that once they have made it successful, the son-in-law must not come and invite you. If your Majesty is now gone, then if they fail to make it successfully, will your Majesty be disappointed?"
"Your Majesty, I think so too. I'd better wait for Xuewen to invite you. Those two stinky girls didn't know how to say that Changle was married, but Yu Zhang hadn't gotten married yet."
"Ah, Ah, Ah." "Who is talking about me? It must be the queen mother. Since we met her last time, we have never entered the palace. It seems that the queen mother has any objections." "Yes. Sister, I think we should go back and see our father and queen mother."
Not to mention the matter between Changle and Yu Zhang, just talking about Yang Heng, he was directing everyone to install the steam engine on a chassis that had been made long ago. Could it be that Yang Heng is so confident that he can use it after installation at one time?
This must be said. Although this multi-cylinder steam engine has not been tested, it has also undergone a lot of model tests and even calculations, and then the final drawings have begun to make parts.
In short, this primitive steam-powered locomotive is still classified into the range of rough products, and the efficiency is not so high, and it does not require special savings on energy consumption. For example, people enter a rich mine with a rich content. Their current goal is to pick up good things first, and those poor mines are really no one to look down on them. Naturally, in the later stage, they need to consider poor mines. The refining of poor mines naturally requires more refined craftsmanship. Although this metaphor is a bit inconsistent, it is almost the same.
The things that Yang Heng manufactures now do not require particularly high requirements except for the precision of chemical aspects. For example, this steam locomotive has no requirements for iron consumption and coal consumption, and it is necessary to try its best to make it. In this way, if you think it is unsafe, you can pile more iron up. The combustion value is not enough, and you can burn more coal. The speed and the requirement are not very fast.
There are also generators made in the past. Although there is no qualified silicon steel, ordinary iron sheets can also carry magnetism, which means that the magnetic permeability is small. They can also generate electricity, which means that the generator needs to be as large as possible, with a larger loss. As long as power generation, low-loss and high-magnetic silicon steel sheets, and even other conductors can also appear. In the early stage, this is a learning stage, not a saving stage.
What, it was used up to all resources. In ancient times, there were no large energy-consuming users, so what were they afraid of when they consumed more resources? Besides, the finished product was produced and even had not gone through the experimental stage. I don’t know how much resources were saved. Therefore, these are not a big deal in Yang Heng’s eyes. As long as things can be made, they can be used. Using these rough things to create huge profits, and then using the profits earned to slowly transform some things, isn’t it getting better and better?
"It's almost done, Guanyin Bi, please help me think about which direction the railway will be built first? Or we will destroy Goguryeo first. You must know that this is a thorn in my heart. Guang was the three campaigns of Goguryeo, but it was not successful. In the end, the national power was also consumed on it."
"Erlang, I don't understand this. You'd better discuss it with the ministers, or you'd like to discuss it with the scholars. I think he might understand these things. In the end, this railway is just organized and built." Changsun said in a slight voice. She really couldn't make any comments. If it were a few years ago, Changsun might have persuaded Li Er not to consider this, but now, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is booming and even reaching an unprecedented height.
However, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty increased, but Li Er's confidence did not keep up, so hesitated and hesitated.
If Yang Heng asked Yang Heng, the first idea of Yang Heng was to object, but if you think about it carefully, it would not be objection. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was already invincible on the earth. Although the ship had not had any ideas in anyone's mind, would the ship be too late after the train was successfully manufactured?
"Report to the owner, all the steam locomotives have been assembled." "Okay, organize people to conduct two inspections. If there is nothing missing, then ignite and test the operation. By the way, this is a historical moment. You check it. Check it a few more times. I want to ask Your Majesty to ignite the fire on site."
Suddenly, Yang Heng remembered that such a big thing, the ignition cannot be carried out easily. You must invite Li Er to come, otherwise Li Er should be unhappy, so it is normal to check it a few more times. Otherwise, after Li Er ignites the ignition, the train cannot run, which is not a joke, and Li Er cannot be uninvited.
"Your Majesty, here, here, the prince is here." "Cheng, this guy is quite tactful, and he will pass on the word and let Xuewen come to see me directly." "Your Majesty, I ask Your Majesty to personally ignite the new train tomorrow. I have asked Master Yuan before coming. Tomorrow is auspicious day, and it is beneficial to do everything."
Well, Old Yuan can also fool you, and the saying "Prince Yuan said that, "Prince Yuan is good at everything?" In fact, Li Er was also a little worried. If he went and couldn't ignite the fire, wouldn't he lose face? If others were asked to ignite the fire, it would be fine if they didn't succeed. If they succeed, they would also lose face. For such a big thing, Li Er didn't even come. So Li Er cared about Yuan Tiangang's words.
"Study Wen, tell me, will the ignition tomorrow really succeed?" "Don't worry, Your Majesty, you will succeed 100% tomorrow, even if you don't succeed."
