Luohe didn't care about other things, so he went to the steel plant to see the situation first.

Before arriving at the steel plant, I saw a long line from a distance, connected to the steel plant from the port, and when I got closer, I found that there was no way to transport the equipment on the ship to the steel mill after being unloaded, although the site of the steel plant was very close to the port, but after all, there was a distance, there was no large transport vehicles in this era, so I had to mobilize the local people, some pushed carts, and some drove carriages, to transport the parts of the equipment to the steel plant for assembly.

The last time the British replaced the high-quality bituminous coal with inferior lignite did not succeed, this time the bituminous coal was honestly transported, because the people's carriages and donkey carts were limited, the carts were all to pull equipment parts, and the people here had to use a basket, dustpan to transport coal to the factory, and some people directly used a large cloth to wrap the coal and leave.

Luo He was watching, and suddenly saw an old man waving to him to say hello, Luo He took a closer look and found that this person was wearing Republic of China clothes and carrying a bag in his hand, which was Cheng Jiuye, who had visited that day.

Luo He hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "Ninth Master, why are you here?"

Cheng Jiuye said with a smile: "Your old man Liu Jinqiu asked me to burn a batch of porcelain, and we burned it and sent it to me." ”

Luo He thought to himself: "Haven't you heard that Liu Jinqiu likes ceramics?" so he smiled and asked, "What kind of porcelain does he want?"

Cheng Jiuye said with a smile: "The things he wants are very ordinary, but they are not ordinary, he actually wants to burn some ceramic bricks, these bricks must have a hole that can be ventilated, I fired one, come and show him today." ”

So the two went to the steel factory, and on the way, Cheng Jiuye smiled: "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to build a steel plant, and these things still need to be transported by horse-drawn cart." ”

Luo He said with a smile: "Everything is difficult at the beginning! At the beginning, our navy used to row a sampan to fight other people's destroyers, but now it even has aircraft carriers!" Luo He sighed with emotion, not considering whether Cheng Jiuye could understand it.

Sure enough, Cheng Jiuye was like a monk in the second chapter - he was confused and asked, "What did you say?"

Luo He waved his hand again and again and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, when I didn't say it." ”

The two came to a plant, this plant is coking, the engineering staff is installing coking equipment, Luohe found an engineer and asked, "Where is Liu Lao?"

The engineer went back and said, "Liu Lao is staring at the converter over there." ”

When Luo He and Cheng Jiuye came to the workshop, they saw Liu Jinqiu holding the equipment catalog and asking a British engineer: "Why is there no equipment to measure the temperature in your equipment?"

The engineer looked dazed and said, "The temperature of the molten steel is more than 1,300 degrees, and I can't think of anything that can measure this temperature." ”

Unlike the steel smelting of later generations, the control of the temperature of molten steel in this era mainly depends on the experience of workers, in fact, in modern times, there are many small and medium-sized enterprises that still judge the temperature based on experience, and powerful factories will use infrared thermometers.

Luo He asked, "Old Liu, what's wrong?"

Liu Jinqiu said: "The British stumbled on us again, I know that when making steel, you can look at the brightness of the furnace, the color of the molten steel to judge the temperature, but this method does not work when refining, we know that the temperature can control the gas content in the molten steel, if the gas content in the molten steel is more, it has a great impact on the performance of the steel!"

Luo He said with a smile: "Elder Liu, don't be angry, there is such an advanced refining technology in this era, you will settle for it." When we develop and develop, these things will be there. ”

At this time, Cheng Jiuye coughed lightly and said, "Brother Liu Xian, I brought the brick you asked me to burn last time." ”

When Liu Jinqiu heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "That's great, it's burned with bauxite, right?"

Cheng Jiuye smiled: "Of course, of course. As he spoke, he handed over a brick with a pipe from his bag, Liu Jinqiu took it in his hand, looked at it over and over, and couldn't put it down.

Luo He asked, "Old Liu, what do you want this thing for?"

Liu Jinqiu said with a smile: "This thing can be used to refine steel, we pass argon gas through this pipe and blow it into the liquid steel, which can remove impurities such as hydrogen and oxygen inside." ”

Luo He asked, "What does this have to do with bauxite?"

Liu Jinqiu said: "The main component of bauxite is aluminum oxide, and it can withstand high temperatures when smelting breathable bricks with this kind of thing. Then he sighed: "Alas, I have to sigh, the craftsmanship of our ancestors!"

Luo He said, "Did you just say argon, where are we going to get argon?"

Liu Jinqiu said with a smile: "There is a way to do this, you don't have to worry." ”

But on the other hand, news came from the intelligence department set up by Luohe before: all this information was obtained from open channels, and it was impossible to obtain confidential information in such a short time. First of all, the RB side: since the end of the Sino-Japanese War peace talks, the RB regarded the failure to win as a great shame and put forward a series of plans to strengthen the army.

The basis for strengthening the army is to achieve large-scale industrial production, and the basis for achieving large-scale production is the accumulation of capital, and with the assistance of the RB government, small and medium-sized enterprises have been acquired by large enterprises, and the four chaebols of Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, and Yasuda have quickly concentrated more than 70 percent of the country's capital, and with the support of the government, these capitals have flowed into the basic industries of the development of weapons and equipment, such as the machinery manufacturing industry and the steel industry.

The RB government invested heavily in the construction of the Yawata Iron Works to import advanced technology from European countries and actively support universities and research institutes to develop new technologies.

The Navy has put forward a "rearmament plan" to build a "66 fleet" with six battleships and six armored cruisers as the main body in the next five years, and the first two battleships, the "Fuji" and "Yashima", have been commissioned at the end of November.

On the Polar Bear side: The new Tsar Nicholas II ascended the throne, amassed a large number of troops on the northeastern border, and transferred the ships of the Baltic Fleet to Vladivostok, the seat of the Pacific Fleet. On the other hand, the polar bear accelerated the construction of railways in northeastern China, and Nicholas II specially allocated a part of the palace funds to support the construction of railways in northeastern China. [Note: It's not written according to real history, don't be serious!]

"Engong, there's something new near the county seat, do you want to go and take a look?"

This poor third generation now also lives in Aunt Liu's house, Aunt Liu is very hospitable, seeing that the poor third generation is also from a poor background, so he let him live, I didn't expect the poor three generations to pay rent, the poor three generations go to the teahouse in the county every day to perform, and the story of the living fairy Xu Feng is compiled into an allegro book, and there are quite a lot of people who listen to it.

The poor third generation said with a smile: "It is said that it is laying a railway, and people from ten miles and eight towns have gone to see it." ”

Xu Feng was also idle, so he followed the poor three generations, and as soon as he arrived at the place, he saw a group of people gathered around a long car, which itself was on the already paved rails, with many rails on it, and a chimney pulling a lot of coal at the back of the car, and a chimney was smoking.

There were a number of polar bear soldiers with guns around the car, so the Chinese people did not get too close, and the people on the car operated the machine to put the rails directly from the car to the paved sleepers, and in the process of paving, there were naturally technicians responsible for alignment, and later fastening fasteners and welding.

Xu Feng couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the polar bears building the railway, and he said to the poor three generations: "Do you know why these old hairmen are building the railway?"

The poor third generation thought for a long time and shook his head.

Xu Feng frowned and said, "As soon as the railway is repaired, Lao Maozi will be able to send troops to us, and he will be able to snatch all our good things to the polar bear!"

The poor third generation seemed to understand, he nodded, and said hesitantly: "That is to say, Lao Maozi's construction of the railway is actually trying to harm us?"

Xu Feng nodded and said, "We can't let Lao Maozi's tricks succeed, in this way, I have a way, will you dance the great god?"

"Jumping God" originated from the Manchu shamanic witchcraft, the people who jumped claimed to be possessed by the gods, so as to complete the cure, divination and other activities, there are also people who use this kind of activities to cheat people money, this kind of activities in the Northeast folk have a wide mass base.

The poor third generation said proudly: "Of course, we pay attention to what we learn from the arts, of course this will!"

Xu Feng whispered in his ear, and the poor third generation nodded yes.

The poor third generation came to the middle of the crowd, and suddenly screamed, causing everyone to look at him, and he screamed and jumped and jumped, as if his whole body was on fire, and everyone was puzzled, and they all looked at him in fear, and he lay on the ground with a wail, and after a while, he stood up straight, and his eyes were round.

Several children were frightened and cried, Xu Feng pointed to the car laying the railroad tracks, and said: "What is this!

His voice was cold, indescribably frightening, and several timid women had already picked up the children and fled home. He pointed to the car and said coldly: "I am a little immortal in the sky, and the Jade Emperor sealed me to this mountain." Now the foreign ghost shops this thing, let go of the demon and kill the sky!"

After speaking, he repeated these words repeatedly, the faster he read them, and finally he lost his breath, and fell to the ground with an ordinary sound, and everyone present was so frightened that they didn't dare to speak, Xu Feng ran over at this time, and the sharp-eyed ones had already recognized it, and discussed: "Isn't that the living immortal of Liujia Village?"

Xu Feng tightened his eyebrows, knelt down beside the poor third generation, and shouted angrily at the people around him: "Hurry up, the mountain god is angry, is it a joke?"

After speaking, he clasped his hands together, muttered something in his mouth, and then slapped the poor three generations on the head and shouted, "Get up!"

The poor third generation opened his eyes and said with a blank face, "What's wrong with me? Why are you lying on the ground?"

Xu Feng said: "It's okay, the mountain god is angry, and he uses your body to warn everyone that this rail is a bad thing!"

When everyone heard this, they all panicked, everyone dispersed in twos and threes, and Lao Maozi also had an interpreter inside, and when he heard the translator tell him what had just happened, he was suspicious one by one.

Xu Feng left with the poor three generations, and on the way Xu Feng smiled and said: "You really act like you, but there is one point, how can you, the mountain god, still SD Allegro?"

The poor third generation smiled and said: "I said Engong, can you scare Lao Maozi away in this way?"

Xu Feng smiled: "Of course not, I still have a clever plan behind me." ”
