The roar of the tractor also alarmed others, Harpy sat in the carriage, saw the tractor parked more than a hundred meters away, the first person to come down, startled, quickly got off, Yang Yuanzhao personally greeted, let him be a little flattered, of course, the recruited workers were recruited in the name of the German American foreign company, no matter what, the German American foreign company is a German-funded company, a Chinese as the boss, can not be said, when introducing to many scientists, mainly as the person in charge of the Baotou project, Of course, these workers are under his control.

More than 240 people, it is impossible to introduce them all, Harpy specially picked the key points to introduce, which especially introduced Truss to Yang Yuanzhao, this is the scientist named by Yang Yuanzhao, as far as Harpy knows, this Truss is really worthy of this identity, even if Truss is a strange person, after so many years of ups and downs, he also knows more or less about the world, no matter how to say, this is his food and clothing, the future, his real funds, it depends on him, the emperor is far away, Along the way, he knows how big China is, I am afraid it is comparable to the United States, the difference is that the east and west coasts of the United States can be shipped, and this Chinese mainland is obviously a barren and closed place.

Yang Yuanzhao looked at Truss, he is in his 50s, he is almost the same as an ordinary white old man, unkempt, but he is really solemn, in those eyes, the wise light flashes from time to time, obviously not an ordinary person, Truss's prestige, as long as he knows a little about history and time-travel, is very clear, and it is said that he is one of the two smartest people in the world. The first was Leonardo da Vinci in the Renaissance, and the second. It's Truss, of course. I'm afraid this cleverness is not from the depth, but from the depth, Einstein is probably not weaker than Truss at all, and even in terms of fame and contribution, he is much stronger than Truss, but Truss's diversity has excellent performance in many fields, and even many problems that modern science can't solve, such as the Tunguska explosion. There are still a lot of studies about Truss that have been sealed by the Americans, and many things, even in the 21st century, have not been declassified by the United States.

However, in terms of first impressions, Truss is more ordinary and looks like an ordinary person.

In this wilderness, Yang Yuanzhao didn't say much, this place is not the place to speak. Beckoned everyone to get on the bus, 240 people came up, and everyone was still a little fussed, but after actually going in. But I found that there can be a lot of reasonable arrangements inside. Make everyone quite comfortable, a car of 20 people. 12 cars, exactly 240 people.

Responsible for pulling their carriages. Continue to move forward, after all, only people come up, their luggage, and some personal belongings, but they can't be put on the tractor, when the roar of the machinery comes, accompanied by bursts of exclamations, the tractor with unimaginable sù, all the way fast travel.

Many engineers exclaimed all the way, most of the engineers, will be involved in a part of the machinery, even if it is a chemical engineer, they also have to participate in the design and manufacture of the machine, for the vehicle, have a congenital good feeling, even if they are sitting in the car, a big mind, but also on the vehicle itself.

More than 100 kilometers, three hours to arrive, Yang Yuanzhao directly brought people to the front of the real yàn room, three stories high, 15 meters high, now it has been completely renovated, it looks extraordinary, it doesn't look ordinary.

"What is this?" A university lecturer asked, somewhat surprised.

"This is where people work!" Yang Yuanzhao pointed to the building and said, "I call it the real yàn building, you can go in and have a look!" ”

One sentence has gathered most people's hearts, even those engineers who are observing the car are no exception, no matter how good the car is, it is just a hobby, unless it is specialized in studying motor vehicles, the real yàn room, that is, the place where they have to work, the quality of this place, the relationship is heavy, after seeing the highway, as well as tractors and buses, their impression of Baotou seems to have shifted some, especially the tall building in front of them, I am afraid that the most prosperous place in Shanghai, is nothing more than that, Perhaps, Baotou may really accommodate them.

At this time, the workshop of the textile mill was almost completed, except for a real room, which was reserved for the mechanical engineer to personally observe the use of the textile machinery and carry out modifications.

Knowing that the engineers arrived today, these real rooms are specially cleaned, all kinds of equipment are neatly placed, some are imported from Germany, some are purchased from the United States, of course, most of the United States purchased, most of them have not arrived, some are only a small part of the equipment, just like that, the whole real yàn room, it looks a little different, how to say, there is a scientific atmosphere.

People look at these equipment, compared with the surrounding environment, I'm afraid it's really good, when they were in the United States, the machine they used was not as good as this, the United States in this era, the importance of scientific research, far from reaching the Cheng dù of later generations, except for some famous scientists, other engineers or university lecturers, I am afraid that only when the subject is researched, can use real equipment, you know, the salary of university lecturers, at most is more than 100 US dollars, but most of the real equipment, Hundreds, some thousands.

is as strong as Truss, who invented alternating current, but fell out with Edison because of the $5,000 real funding, and finally left Edison's company to work alone, these devices, obviously, are far greater than the figure of 10,000, and there is more than one expensive equipment.

Scientists are like this, engineers are not good to go there, see that they can use, even the favorite equipment, some of the feeling of not being able to walk, the most unfortunate, I'm afraid it will be Truss, when he walked to the electromagnetic real room, there was some can't walk, into the electric power room, even more so, the equipment inside, are all selected by Harpy, Yang Yuanzhao just gave a big purchase plan, most of them were taken to Germany, selected by the help of German universities, the same is true of electricity, They are all mainstream equipment in the world, and the value is at least about 1 million US dollars.

Electric power laboratory. It is the last real yàn room, and the other real yàn rooms. Yang Yuanzhao is in charge, and there are many things that transcend this era. Before he is completely sure, Yang Yuanzhao will not let people watch it for the time being.

"Everyone has also seen that the equipment of my real room, this is not all, there are more, will come one after another!" Yang Yuanzhao glanced at everyone, looked at everyone's eyes, and then said: "The management of the real yàn room is also very simple, and everyone can follow their own interests. Those who choose a topic, but must be approved by the real yàn room, and those who are recognized can get a certain amount of real funds, ranging from 5,000-500,000 yuan per year! ”

500,000, with this simple number spit out, everyone was shocked, although Germany and the United States recruited harder, and their salaries were very high. These real equipment is also a large investment, but the test cost is different, which represents the number of times that can be done, and even how many results will be produced. Most of those present, except for Truss. It's good to have 500 real yàn funds, let alone 5,000. An engineer tried to ask, "How do I apply for a project?" ”

"Write down the project you want to work on. Including the possibility of success and future prospects, for us to review! Yang Yuanzhao said this, paused, and then said: "However, I don't build yì for you to do this!" ”

"Why?"

"You don't know much about the situation in Baotou, you know, this real room is for Baotou service, if it can't adapt to the development of Baotou, no matter how good the proposal is, it will be vetoed! So we have prepared some proposals suitable for you, and later, as you are familiar with Baotou, you can carry out it according to what you are good at or like. ”

Many engineers were slightly uncomfortable, but soon returned to normal, the engineers of this era, most of them, are according to the plan, carry out tasks, similar research has also been done, compared to their own liking, work for others, of course, to listen to others, think of the other party is also for the results, so as not to let chemical engineers do metallurgical work, although, maybe genius engineering can dabble in so much.

"There's no electricity!" It was none other than Truss who spoke, it was Truss's, and when he saw those real equipment, Truss felt that something should be prepared for him, and now that he heard that there was a task, of course he was the first to speak.

"Mr. Truss, of course there is electricity, and it is a very important task, I'm afraid no one else can do it except you!" Yang Yuanzhao said.

"yes, then I'd like to hear what kind of mission it is!" Truss raised his eyebrows and said, in his opinion, there are few projects that can make him pay attention, if it weren't for this real equipment worth 1 million, he probably wouldn't really say a word.

"It's exactly your old job, AC!" Yang Yuanzhao said solemnly.

Truss's face showed a look of surprise, alternating current can be said to be one of Truss's most proud inventions, a certain number of dù, is a milestone like the same invention, in his opinion, alternating current is much better than direct current, not only easy to transport, can be transmitted over long distances, even if it is the efficacy of electricity, it is much stronger than direct current, is the most suitable replacement for direct current.

At that time, he was not as far-reaching as he sees now, it was the time of complacency, but Edison was poured a basin of cold water here, Edison said that he supported him, but in private, he sent him a lot of research projects on direct current, and after he understood that Edison would not promote alternating current, it was several years later, and in terms of actual funds, he could not talk about it for a long time, he resolutely came out of Edison's company, and it was impossible to rely on his own efforts to promote alternating current independently. After so many years of development, direct current can not be said to be a behemoth, but with Edison as the center, almost a large number of vested interests in the network, the joint force formed by these people is far from being a lonely Truss can influence, he spent effort, everyone recognizes his alternating current, but when it comes to investment and application, no one is willing, so many years, there are enough walls, he simply dispelled this idea, in recent years, has been doing no impeller project, but in the heart of the alternating current project, It's still more or less yearning.

Unexpectedly, in the decades of experience, he has not done anything, but in Baotou, this barren and unfamiliar place, he has been replied, the investment in alternating current is huge, often tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is also the key to his success, he himself does no impeller, but also to raise funds, ready to make a set of standards by himself. When I came to Baotou, I didn't see anything else, one thing is certain, Baotou definitely has the strength to promote this project of alternating current.

"How?"

Yang Yuanzhao breathed a sigh of relief, alternating current has proven its strength in later generations, and now he is just using the enlarged version of the tributary converter to convert direct current into AC, so there is too much waste, and the power is not high, and there is a great waste of it, but unfortunately electricity is a field that he is not very familiar with, and now Truss is here, as long as this is done, some household appliances can be used, and even in the future, to complete the conversion of Baotou from the steam power era to the electricity era, it is not impossible, said: "This project, It is said that it is really yàn, in fact, it is more of an engineering, and I am ready to build a 5000 kW unit in Baotou! ”、

Truss couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, 5,000 kilowatts, it doesn't seem like much, but the generator is often according to the day, so down, it is more than 1.8 million kilowatts a year, the project of this power plant is absolutely very large, before in the United States, when Truss promoted alternating current, the biggest hope is only an annual power generation of 300,000 kilowatts, 5,000 kilowatts, with the current level of generators, one is definitely not enough, at least 5 units, maybe 10 units.

"How much?"

"The real yàn fund is 250,000 US dollars, specific equipment and materials, you can write a list, directly apply with the real yàn room, I hope the bigger the better!"

"Bigger is better?" Truss looked at Yang Yuanzhao and smiled bitterly, and said: "Large steam engines are not easy to buy, a single 5,000 kilowatt generator set requires at least a steam engine of more than 1,000 horsepower, I can't do this!" ”

"That's fine, I've got a steam engine ready!" Yang Yuanzhao affirmed.

As soon as these words came out, before Truss could change color, an engineer next to him blurted out: "This is impossible, there is a 1000-horsepower steam engine now!" (To be continued......)
