Chapter 726: Gas Masks
Nanxia glanced back, and the gladiator behind him was lying motionless on the ground, I don't know if he really couldn't move, or if he was hit by an internal injury caused by himself, and he really couldn't get up.
However, none of this is important, the important thing is that after a few rounds of attack, the two gladiators lay on the ground and couldn't get up, which greatly increased the national prestige of the Tang Empire and the military prestige of the Tang Army, so that all the audience admired it, which was enough.
"Hahaha......"
Minami laughed loudly and waved his hands to greet the audience around him.
"Wow, what a ......"
The audience also responded enthusiastically, the atmosphere was extremely warm, and many viewers were eager to jump directly into the Colosseum, take a photo with the south, or something, at least invite someone to have a meal, set up something like that.
Of course, because the Datang soldiers have been working hard to maintain order, no spectators have the opportunity to jump into the Colosseum, which is also not allowed.
"Not bad! It's really enjoyable, the Datang generals made these two felons unable to get up in a few rounds, it's too powerful. ”
"Needless to say, our Datang is the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and the Datang generals are naturally powerful."
"See! In front of the Tang Dynasty generals, these deflated three are all vulnerable and not worth mentioning at all. ”
"If you have time to go to Datang, you will find that the first half of your life has been in vain."
The audience chatted lively.
The competition had just begun, and it ended so smoothly, Li An and the civil and military officials under his command were naturally all very happy, and they quickly won in the south, and their faces were all stained.
"Hahaha! This kid who went south did a good job, and he solved the two gladiators in a few clicks, which really gave Lao Tzu a long face, and he must be rewarded. ”
Ang Lee stood up happily.
"We have heard of General Nan's strength for a long time, but this time we have seen it for the first time, and it is indeed worthy of its reputation!"
"General Nan's strength is not bad, but there are many generals who are more powerful than General Nan in my Tang Dynasty, and General Nan can only be regarded as an upper middle level."
"At the upper middle level, you can beat two gladiators all over the ground to find teeth, which shows how good the strength of my Tang generals is, and the Heavenly Empire is incomparable to ordinary small countries, hahaha!"
The civil and military officials beside him were all excited.
Li An strode forward, walked to the edge of the guardrail, touched the guardrail with both hands, and shouted: "Go south, you kid did a good job, don't be cool, come up!" ”
"Yes, Li Shilang."
He waved his hand to the audience, strode out of the Colosseum, and walked to the viewing platform to return to Ang Lee.
"Good boy, there are no injuries! You can be regarded as a meritorious service today, and the official will not reward anything else, just a meal of wine and meat! You are fortunate enough to be able to dip it together and eat it together. ”
Ang Lee said with a laugh.
"Hahaha! Great, this reward is good, everyone can get it together together, hahaha! ”
All the civil and military officials were very happy, because they could enjoy the delicious food together.
"Li Shilang, what about these two gladiators, they are both alive and injured, should they be treated, or buried directly."
The subordinate asked.
Li An thought for a moment and said: "Since they are not dead yet, let's treat their injuries first, and continue to fight when their injuries are healed, how can they easily die like this." ”
For these felons, Li Ang hates it the most, and it will be more comfortable to torture more.
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
The subordinates answered, got up and went to prepare.
In the following days, the Colosseum had wonderful animal fighting performances every day, and each time the content was slightly different, and sometimes, in order to adjust the taste of the audience, two dogs, two cows, and even two horses would be bitten together, so that the audience could taste different feelings and prevent aesthetic fatigue.
And Ang Lee will take a look every day, sometimes he can see the end from the beginning, and sometimes he leaves after seeing half of it, in fact, anything will be aesthetically tired, and watching the beast competition every day will also give birth to a feeling of aesthetic fatigue.
In the past few days, the road outside the north gate of Anzhu City has been almost repaired, and the concrete has been paved, but because it takes a certain amount of time for the concrete to solidify, this concrete road cannot be used yet, and it needs to wait for a few days before it can be used.
The one-mile road from the lime mine to the northern road, because it was the first to be laid, so the concrete in this section has been dried and is completely usable.
As for the lime mine, the cement workshop, and the melamine paint workshop, these three important places are almost built, the lime mine has already begun to be mined, the cement workshop has just begun to put into production, and the melamine paint workshop still has a small amount of equipment not installed in place, so it will take a few days to put into production.
Ang Lee's original plan was to start the construction of the remaining half of the pavement immediately after the cement workshop was put into operation, but because the previously constructed double-channel pavement had not yet dried, there was no way to start the construction of the remaining half of the pavement, otherwise, there would be no way to transport all kinds of materials.
Therefore, Li An has already decided to start the construction of the remaining half of the road after the concrete pavement of the road is completely dry, anyway, it will take some time to leave Anzhu City, don't be too anxious, in addition, after the arrival of the officials of the imperial court, they can also continue to be responsible for the construction, as long as Li An explains well, no one dares to disobey the order.
The cement workshop has begun to be put into production, and today is the day of producing finished cement products, and Ang Lee, as the chief, naturally wants to inspect it to show the importance of the cement workshop.
Because of the special nature of cement production, the air inside the cement workshop is bound to be very bad, and uncomfortable dust may be encountered at any time.
Therefore, all craftsmen working in the cement workshop must wear masks to reduce the damage caused by dust to the body and protect the health of the craftsmen.
Ang Lee doesn't need to produce cement in a workshop with a bad environment, just occasionally inspect, but even so, Ang Lee has to take the most basic protective measures, and Ang Lee naturally won't use masks made of cotton, because the protective effect of this thing is too general, it can only block most of the dust, and a small amount of dust will enter people's mouths and noses, which is still harmful to the human body.
And the better equipment is the gas mask, Li An was in Chang'an City, he had already invented this thing, because many experiments in the R&D center have a certain degree of danger, and many chemical reactions will produce lethal poisonous gases, so it is necessary to invent gas masks.
When he left the Tang Dynasty and went south, Li An also brought some gas masks, the number was not very many, but it was enough for Li An and some of his subordinates, as for ordinary craftsmen, they could only temporarily let them use simple cotton masks.
"Li Shilang, the gas mask you want is ready."
A soldier brought a dozen gas masks and placed them in front of Ang Lee.
Li An nodded with satisfaction, took a number of subordinates and dozens of guards, and prepared to inspect the cement workshop.
Because the newly built concrete road has not yet dried, they have to take the dirt road on the other side, which is not only dusty, but the quality of the road is also very good, but it is far from the concrete road.
In order to quickly arrive at the cement workshop, Li Ang chose to take the ironclad command car, so that the safety and security work was easier in the past.
The guards rode with them, so that they could keep up with the speed of the ironclad command vehicle and bring the cement workshop with them.
The ironclad command vehicle drove on the dirt road, kicking up a lot of dust, and these smoke and dust fluttered with the wind, forming a thin layer of smoke, making it difficult for Li An, who was sitting in the car, to see the cavalry behind him, but he could hear the sound of horses' hooves and judge that the cavalry was behind him.
I don't know if the smoke and dust kicked off by the ironclad command vehicle drifted into the mouth and nose of the cavalry behind them, but even if it drifted into the mouth and nose of the cavalry, they could only endure it, the heavy responsibility of guarding Li An was more important than anything else, they had to endure all difficulties, and do everything possible to protect Li An, so that Li An could be intact, this is their duty and their obligation.
Because the foundation is relatively good, the dirt road is still very flat, and there are multiple sets of shock absorption systems inside the ironclad command vehicle, so there are basically no bumps when running.
After the twenty-mile run, the one-mile road to the east has been dry, so you can drive directly on the concrete road.
The ironclad command car easily drove onto the concrete road, and it felt naturally more stable, the slightest sense of bumps was gone, and the speed seemed to have increased.
Of course, the main purpose of building concrete pavement is not to increase the speed, but because the ordinary dirt pavement can not support frequent vehicle crushing, it is easy to become a potholed road, and it is muddy on rainy days, which will seriously affect the transportation of workshop products to Anzhu City, and once the road surface is seriously damaged, it will cause an accident of overturning, or, the vehicle is stuck in a mud pit and cannot come out, resulting in a sharp decline in transportation efficiency, interfering with the normal development of South Tianzhu.
The lime mine is the closest and arrives quickly, and the cement workshop is a few hundred steps southeast of the lime mine, which is not very far away, and a double-channel cement road is also paved to facilitate the transportation of lime resources to the cement workshop for the production of cement resources.
"Park, park."
Li Ang originally planned to go directly to the cement workshop, but since he was in front of the lime mine, he naturally wanted to come down and take a look and inspect it.
There is no dust at the place of getting off, but at the mining site not far away, there is a large amount of smoke, and this is not ordinary smoke, but lime powder, which is strong corrosive, once it floats to the human body, it will cause damage to people's skin, the skin is relatively tender, and even cause burns.
Ann Lee put on a white hazmat suit and put on a gas mask, and with a few subordinates who only wore gas masks, and a few guards who wore masks, he walked to the location of the mining and simple processing of lime mines.
At present, the mining means of lime ore is still very primitive, in the case that the machine is not equipped, can only use the stupid method of manpower mining, the efficiency of mining is indeed not high, but because there are more people involved in mining, so, the total mining volume is not bad, at least, so many days, a large number of lime resources have been mined.
Li An did not get too close to the mining site, and in the leeward place, a large amount of corrosive smoke and dust would not drift to Li An, but in all places of the entire lime mine, there was actually lime powder, including the soles of Li An's feet, there was also a small amount of lime powder, which was sprinkled on the ground during transportation, and when walking, the lime powder would be lifted up, thus forming a stream of corrosive smoke.
Although this kind of small smoke and dust is not very harmful to people's bodies, it is necessary to prevent it all at once, so Li An put on protective clothing, not only that, but before going to bed tonight, Li Ang also took a bath and cleaned his body thoroughly.
The craftsmen who work are here to make money, so their treatment is not very good, and there is no protective clothing for the work, only a thin mask, or Li An is kind and asks for it, and these craftsmen are very reluctant to wear masks because they feel a little breathless, but put the mask in their pockets, but Li An came to inspect it, so he put the mask on in a panic, which is simply a kind of coping.
Because the work is relatively tiring, it is easy to sweat, and if you wear too much, it will be very hot and uncomfortable, so most craftsmen wear very thin, only thin clothes and trousers, and these thin clothes are difficult to resist lime burning.
So, after each day, the craftsmen had to go to the river to bathe and wash all the lime powder attached to their bodies, and at the same time wash their clothes that were stained with lime powder, and they returned to their lodgings in their changed clothes.
Because lime powder burns the body more severely, the craftsmen in charge of mining lime mines only need to work for four hours a day, and the rest of the time can be used for cultivation, or do some light work, such as repairing production tools, get together to chat, and come up with better ways to work.
The lime mine is very large, and the area being mined is also very large, so there is no need to work shifts, everyone can go to and from work at the same time, and only one working time a day.
When Li An came to inspect, the craftsmen had already been working for half a day, and they needed to eat and take a break at noon, and by the way, they had to wash off the lime powder on their arms and thighs, and after they were finished in the afternoon, they would be thoroughly cleaned again.
Watching a large group of craftsmen running towards the river, Li An waved his hand and led everyone closer to some inspections, after the craftsmen left, because there was no turning of laborers, there was no obvious dust in the mining position, and the location where the limestone was stored was quiet.
"Li Shilang, this is the storage area, the mined lime ore and lime are directly stored here, and there is a processing area, which is to turn the best quality lime ore into powder, so that the cement workshop and the melamine coating workshop can carry out the next step of processing."
The subordinate in charge of the workshop opened his mouth to explain.
