Although the light industry part has been almost designed, including new looms and looms, but when I checked it, I found that the ideas of these designs ~ did not seem to be understood by the women who were gathered......

The new looms and looms were actually adapted from the equipment used to weave silk and silk thread in this era. After all, the difference between weaving with cotton thread and silk thread is not particularly big, you only need to adjust and redesign the speed of the loom. But when I saw that the newly recruited female workers were still struggling to make thin cotton threads in the way of 'twine', I felt that these female workers had misunderstood the role of this cotton thread. They seem to be working with cotton as a very precious material. And the cotton thread produced is even finer than the traditional 'twine'~ So I can only train again, so that these people can speed up the production of coarse cotton thread dozens of times.

Oh yes! This loom is actually a spinning wheel that is traditionally used to make silk and twine.

Oh Speaking of female workers, this is when I built a 'textile mill' near the academy before the new Crescent City was built.

Of course, it is not the same as the real textile mills of later generations. Here, only primitive machinery can be used to weave pure white cotton threads and undyed cotton cloth.

Oh yes! The textile machines here are powered by electric motors. Originally, I wanted the already well-established steam engine to power this newly developed textile machine. However, although the steam engine is full of power, it needs a lot of coal to be used as fuel. Therefore, it will cause a lot of smoke pollution. The smoke and dust everywhere actually dyed the white cotton cloth that had just been spun into an ugly color.

That's why I should use the motor to drive the weaving machine. Although the power of this motor is much smaller than that of the steam engine, it cannot be like a steam engine, and one can drive many textile machines to run at the same time. But at least it won't discolor the new cloth because of contamination.

Oh yes! Another reason is that the cotton raw materials required for weaving are actually very flammable items. Storing cotton in a warehouse and a steam engine too close together can be dangerous.

So I had to build the mill close to the river, at least so that the hydroelectric generators could send enough electricity to the mill.

For this reason, I added an artificial canal to the design of Crescent City...... This has a serious impact on the speed of construction of new towns.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for me to send the new and improved drawings to the construction site of Crescent City, when good news came from the academy.

"What! A large generator has been made? Or was it modified with a steam engine? ”

It turned out that the researchers in the academy who had been working on the improvement of generators had come up with a large steam engine that could drive 100 generators at the same time after seeing the drawings of the power plant I had designed. With this thing, as long as coal is used, not only can a large amount of electricity be produced at the same time, but the excess hot water and water vapor can also be used for heating pipes.

Speaking of which, this is no different from the thermal power plants of later generations!

Of course, when I looked at the new steam engine, I realized that it was very different from the thermal power plants of later generations. At least the size and size are not at the same level.

I have the impression that there is a large thermal power station on the outskirts of my previous residence. I think the big white chimney that looks super big is a sign of a thermal power plant!

However, the steam engine produced by the academy has been replaced with a newer "steam turbine" structure. It is more powerful than the previous piston steam engine. But the scale of this thing is still too small, and the whole steam engine is just a power room the size of a house.

Later, I learned that the design of the 'steam turbine' in this steam engine was actually copied by the academy after watching some 'science fiction movies' taken out of the mall. It's just that the production method is purely handmade and used the 'lathe' in the academy to make the car. The complexity of this thing is actually unimaginable to ancient people. After all, none of the cars I could pull out had a steam turbine of similar construction. If it weren't for the fact that after watching the movie shown by Dacao, these people would never have imagined that there would be such a structure.

Speaking of which, this is actually the first time I have seen the inner structure of a steam turbine. In my heart, I always thought that the steam engine should be piston-powered!

Fortunately, the girl was called back to the academy to help teach and train new researchers, so that she would continue to start her homeless hobby during the break, squatting in the room with a notebook and watching movies taken out of the mall. And many researchers have been taught a lot of knowledge by Okusa, so occasionally people run to watch Okusa movies.

It's a bit off-topic, anyway, after this steam engine evolved directly from the piston type to the more advanced steam turbine type without my knowledge, the main core part of this thermal power plant is considered to be successful, and now someone is waiting for someone to research products such as voltage regulator transformers! In this case, it can be regarded as a standard power station.

But now it's okay, at least I can use the equipment in the mall's power distribution room as a voltage regulator. Moreover, the requirements for electricity in today's electrical appliances are not particularly large. Just make do with it.

For this reason, I actually built a thermal power station in the college. As a result, with the installation of a set of generators, it is possible to fully supply the electricity of the entire college and the adjacent textile factory!

At the same time, the construction of Crescent City was also completed in only one month with the operation of a large number of people...... This news spread directly throughout Datang! It has even been regarded as a miracle by many people in other places......

In other words, the power station here has been successfully studied, and the light industry factory is also in trial operation~ Oh yes! Speaking of this textile factory, the cotton used here is actually turned out of the shopping mall, so that these workers can practice their hands first, and then improve the loom by the way.

It's just that there is so much cotton, and it turns out to be cotton that I removed from the pure cotton bedding in the mall. So this amount is still a big problem. I pumped all the cotton out of the mall every day for a week, so that a week's stock could only keep two looms running at the same time for a few hours. If you look at it this way, the efficiency of the new textile machine powered by an electric motor is really good. And the pure white cotton cloth spun out of the palace has been recognized by the court after I entered the court!

Therefore, the imperial court finally approved my proposal to promote cotton planting, and opened up thousands of acres of wasteland for me at the border location, so that I could hire people to open up the wasteland to grow cotton! This means that I have got a large piece of land for no reason! Looking at it this way, I have inadvertently become a famous landlord in Datang! Coupled with the potato and sweet potato experimental fields near Chang'an City, then I am already a famous landowner in Datang! With so much land, I guess only those families can compare with each other in terms of land area! In other words, the imperial court was really interesting, and when they agreed to support me in planting and developing the cotton business, they actually sent all the title deeds of the experimental fields to me. Including the title deed of the experimental field in Lantian County, Chang'an City~ This is simply a windfall!

Oh yes! The title deed of the academy was taken back to the imperial court. I guess they finally understand the power of the academy! That's why I want to take back the ownership of the college. Anyway, I've wanted to hand this thing over to the court for a long time. After all, in my eyes, the purpose of the existence of this academy is to cultivate talents and develop science and technology, and the ultimate purpose is to let me live a happy life like the future generations! After all, now I am already a noble of the Tang Dynasty, and I have a knighthood. Then when I can take out all the electrical appliances that I enjoy in the future life, then this place will be more comfortable than heaven!

Thinking of this, I looked at the power station next to the academy, nodded silently in my heart and said, "Huh~ Finally!" The first step in my plan was finally completed. At least when there is electricity, I can comfortably use all kinds of electrical appliances in the mall in Datang! Well! I can put the construction of my own estate on the agenda! ”

The first step in my plan to enjoy life is the power plant. There are a lot of household appliances in the mall that I can enjoy my life. However, because there are other problems with electricity, most of these electrical appliances cannot be taken out of the mall because of power problems, except for a small amount of RVs. Although I can also use these appliances in the mall. But it's better to be happy alone than to be happy! I have so many maids now, I hope I can use these electrical appliances in Datang to enjoy life...... Now that I have a thermal power plant, I can try a lot of electrical appliances!

Unfortunately, there is still a serious shortage of power generation. If I do the math, I estimate that I need more power in one room than an entire power station...... Still waiting! At the current pace of scientific research, sooner or later, a high-power power plant similar to that of later generations will be imitated. It's not too late to enjoy life.

In addition, at least the design of Crescent City does not need to be renovated, and the canal that has just been added to the drawings does not need to be dug. Although there are still as many as 100,000 craftsmen and servants in Crescent City, if all of them are used to dig canals, it is not enough to dig them in a short time with the current technology. However, this also reminds me that the research on large construction machinery should also begin~ but the biggest problem here is gasoline...... There are also all the large engineering equipment, there are no books on this in the mall, let alone the real thing. The only large vehicle in the underground garage of the mall is a garbage truck, and the rest are all various civilian vehicles and an armored cash truck. Oh yes, and there are quite a few electric cars and motorcycles.

Therefore, if I want to study large-scale engineering equipment, I guess I can only use those toy models on the toy counter in the mall...... It's hard to think about!

"I'll talk about it later! Take it easy! ”

When I arrived at Crescent City, which was not far from the coal mine, I was surprised to find that people from the imperial court had come here one step ahead of me, and were now choosing a place in the city to be the county government...... Last time in the White Jade City, it was because I forgot the problem of the yamen. Therefore, when all the houses in the entire city were sold, there was no place for the yamen in the White Jade City, so the imperial court had no choice but to build the yamen here outside the gate of the White Jade City......

Therefore, after the Crescent City was built this time, the imperial court came here one step ahead of me to choose a place that could be used as a yamen. I still forgot to leave a place for the yamen!

However, it is easy to do, since the main structure of the new power station has been successfully studied, there is no need for the land of the four power stations in the crescent city. I directly handed over one of the vacant plots to the people of the imperial court, and then arranged for the craftsmen in the city to use the remaining building materials to build a county government here with the same structure as the yamen in ordinary towns.

This suggestion has won the favor of the people from the imperial court! It turns out that the scale and appearance of the county government in this era are fixed, except that the size can be slightly changed, and there are no specific requirements for the inner house of the yamen to live in the back of the yamen, including the structure and shape of the yamen gate of the public hall, and each house has a fixed template and requirements. Therefore, most of the county offices are basically the same regardless of the orientation or internal structure!

Therefore, the rebuilding of the county government is more in line with the minds of the people from the imperial court than their original plan to find a building to make do. At least this overseer who came here won't get into trouble because of this! Oh yes! It's not quite the same. After all, all the building materials here are mainly made of reinforced concrete and various 'prefabricated panels'. Therefore, in addition to the astonishing speed of the construction of the new yamen, there are still many differences between the county yamen and other local yamen. However, the general appearance is still built according to the original design drawings as much as possible.

In three days, it only took three days to build the county office! Later, the imperial court sent people to live in the county government, and after mobilizing the officials from the nearby county town, the imperial court actually asked the craftsmen to build a large military camp outside the new city...... I made a point of questioning the visitor, and learned that this military camp was specially designed to prevent the city from being attacked. It turns out that after the imperial court learned that I was going to build this place into an industrial city, it attached great importance to it!

In fact, there is also the cotton cloth that I contributed, and there are also drawings of the power plant and the design of the new smelter. Sure enough, people in this era still value products such as steel and cloth.

Steel is now the most precious 'strategic material' of this era! You have to send someone to guard it!
