111 Building materials industry
At half past seven in the morning, three luxury buses slowly drove out of the courtyard in front of the gate of the Red Mansion, with 93 male and female "tourists" sitting in the cars.
In a short time, the three buses drove up a simple road with little visible vehicles and pedestrians, and the speeding buses dragged out puffs of smoke and dust on the road, which was very eye-catching in the wilderness.
After ten minutes, the convoy finally stopped, a group of fancyly dressed men, women and children, shouting out of the door, two men and women who were obviously tour guides held a small flag in their hands, waving while shouting loudly to everyone, gathered people and climbed to a small hill, the local drivers on the bus watched all this quietly, they felt strange, this is not a tourist attraction, that small hillside can overlook the coastline to the south, is not a commanding height that can overlook the whole island and enjoy the sea view, Why were these men, women and children so excited to climb that inconspicuous hill?
Hou Xianglin was the first "tourist" to stand on the top of a small slope.
He crossed his hands on his hips, looking out into the sea to the south, and less than two kilometers from here was the coastline, where the Nicole and the Pride were quietly moored.
The tall hull of the Nicole stood motionless on the seashore against the distant islands and the gentle land in front of her, and at her feet was a large floating dock made of a series of steel pontoons, the red paint on which looked like a small patch of red seaweed from a distance.
"This is the warehouse area I have planned."
Hou Xianglin and the others climbed up, their fingers crossed the land under their feet, and shouted loudly to the people around them.
Today's field trips, or field trips under the cover of field trips, are conducted by Hou Xianglin and Cao Limei as the de facto guides and main narrators.
The theme of today's trip is to visit Hou Xianglin's road plan and warehouse site as well as the mines in the geological data.
Of course, these expeditions were not completed in a day or two, and this was only the beginning of nearly a month of field exploration before the crossing, and at this time, Nicole and Anna, who were standing not far from the crowd and leisurely watching the scenery from all sides, were responsible for providing cover and security as tour guides.
"It's not far from that marina, it's a little higher, it's some distance from the wet coastline, it's dry and airy, so it's a good fit for our main warehouse area.
We had to move the bulk of the Nicole and Pride out of the hold after the crossing, and it was obviously much easier to store here than to transport it into the cave, because it was more economical, and it was easy to access, and it was also convenient to build roads from here to the rest of the island. Of course, some valuable materials should still be transported into the Red Mansion or the cave......"
Hou Xianglin talked eloquently, where his finger was pointing, everyone's eyes followed, many people nodded while listening, and of course there were people who wanted to express different opinions with serious faces.
"Brother Hou, the construction of the warehouse should use as little aid as possible from the crossing over, right?"
"Well, that's supposed to be a principle of building a warehouse, right?"
Someone in the crowd nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Brother Hou, can you tell us about your construction plan?"
At this point, someone in the audience asked.
"Oh, yes, my plan is to build a simple shack-like building here as a warehouse. To put it simply, digging some semi-underground storage pits, but, even then, it will definitely take some aid, but I promise, it's certainly not much, including some of the building materials I proposed to Anna last time, which are the kind you can reuse.
These simple greenhouses are mainly used to store bulk materials such as chemical products, metal materials, and our oils.
Because there were no natives on the island three hundred years ago, we didn't have the problem of anti-theft, but we still needed guards, after all, people were needed for fire and insect prevention.
Therefore, I suggest that the first road or railway we build after crossing is to lead from the cave gate under the Red Mansion to the southern wharf, and then extend here.
Judging from the current situation, we can learn from the design direction of this simple road in front of us, from the cave gate to here, and then turn a small bend to go directly to the wharf, you please look at the terrain here, it is relatively easy to build the road......
Hou Xianglin unfolded a large-scale map in time, and pointed it out to everyone one by one under the watchful eyes of everyone......
In less than an hour, the temporary discussion on the hillside ended like this, and there was nothing to question Hou Xianglin's plan, after all, he was a professional, and the rationality of Hou Xianglin's plan was obvious.
So the group got on the bus again an hour later, and the fleet of luxury buses set off for another location - the upper reaches of a river, where there was a pyrite mine.
The savanna landscape is actually quite monotonous, and there is nothing eye-catching outside the car window except for the occasional dotted farmhouse with colourful tin roofs and cattle and sheep in the grass and bushes, and a small patch of palm trees.
So everyone's attention focused on the discussion of the aid project, and in the third bus where Hou Xianglin was, the problem discussed by everyone was naturally related to Hou Xianglin's construction project, after all, he read all the aid lists on building materials last night, and everyone had a lot of questions to ask him.
In the beginning, the question focused on what kind of building materials Anna had provided us.
"Well, about this...... In terms of the production of building materials, I found that they are very aware of our technological level and our potential, and here, I would like to first introduce a micro cement production line that Anna gave us! ”
"Miniature?"
"As expected......"
In the somewhat bumpy carriage, everyone looked at Hou Xianglin while talking and raised the paper in his hand.
Hou Xianglin paused after speaking, lowered his head and carefully looked at the information at hand for a while, and then continued:
"Well, this is a set of small wet cement production equipment, although it is a phased process in this world, but I think it is quite suitable for the current situation after we have crossed the past......"
"What do you mean by that?"
"I heard that the wet process is quite backward......"
Someone in the carriage raised a questioning voice.
"Well, as you know, there are many reasons why some processes of industrial production are eliminated in the current world, and they are not entirely because of product cost or quality factors, such as this wet process, the main reason for the elimination is relatively high carbon emissions and heat consumption......
But I personally think that the benefits of wet cement production are still obvious, one is that the operation process is relatively simple, the mixing is easy, the other is less dust, the transmission of materials is also more convenient, and the process equipment and process flow are relatively simple.
It's ...... It is worth mentioning that we have obtained a micro mechanical rotary kiln, which is a very critical equipment, for us, with this equipment, the labor intensity problem is not too prominent. ”
"Brother Hou, is the labor intensity of the cement factory very high?"
"Isn't it dirty?"
"yes, it's like a ...... with a dirty face all day long"
"Well, it's usually quite large, and there's a lot of dust in the environment...... But if it's miniature, it should be better. ”
Hou Xianglin responded truthfully to everyone's questions.
