Among the 120 workers who came to China from Germany and crossed the ocean, only twenty or thirty were native to Germany, and the rest were basically Eastern European races, or from colonies, they were greatly discriminated against in Germany, even if it was an ordinary job, it was not easy to find, they would choose to cross the ocean and come to China, to be honest, whether it was Shanghai, or along Shanghai all the way to the Chinese mainland, their mood was constantly changing, from the amazement of Shanghai, they knew that in the Far East, It turns out that there is such a modern and prosperous metropolis as Shanghai, which goes upriver along the Yangtze River, and the wide Yangtze River, steamboats of more than 3,000 tons, can go directly to Wuhan, which gives them a huge understanding of China's shipping.

It's a pity that this is only the beginning, not the end, they think they want to go to a developed big city, after entering China, feel the barrenness and backwardness, especially after getting off the train in Taiyuan, the carriage travels on the Loess Plateau in China, which makes the people from the industrial society, there is a feeling of entering the world of primitive people, they don't believe that here, there will be modern industry, what are they doing here, is it possible that the German and American company will build an industrial city next door.

No matter how unhappy they are, these workers have no choice, they have signed the contract, and at the same time received 3 months of advance wages, even if the contract is not strict in this era, in the case of receiving three months' salary, no matter where they go, as long as there is no threat to the safety issue, at least, they must stay for more than three months, otherwise it is a breach of contract, Germany's strict system, so that the cost of breach of contract is very high, unless they run back to their hometown, otherwise, they can not find a new job.

However, the workers of Eastern Europe or the colonies, since they have come out, how can they go back, this is also the fundamental reason why they dare to cross the ocean and come to China, they want to change their destiny, and they are unwilling to return to their poor homeland.

Deep into the wasteland, the carriage can not see the end at a glance, Baotou gives them a very good treatment, generally four people in a car, 140 people, almost 40 cars, of course, with them, there is also a machine to transport to Baotou, almost 200 carriages, this transportation work, as early as more than a month ago, began, until now has not stopped.

The carriage was tightly wrapped, and the Yang family and the Wei family did not tell sù, the other carriages were loaded with machines, and after getting off the ship and changing to trains, they were used to seeing China's poverty, especially the Yellow River railway bridge, joking, a single carriage that could only be traveled, what kind of joke, is this the 20th century, or the 18th century, or even the 17th century, when the railway just appeared, in the era of horse-drawn carriages, a single carriage was acceptable, and the so-called steel bridge, is it paper-paste?

It was this encounter again and again that made the workers silent, and even chatted with each other very little, and the only thing they thought about was their own fate, in this poor Qing country, what was waiting for them, whether it would be a scam, but 140 of them, all paid 3 months' salary in advance, which was tens of thousands of marks, and the ferry tickets to China together, plus the food on the road, cost a lot, what do they have to be done.

"Look what that is!" In the carriage, a worker pointed outside, shouting loudly, the sound was so loud that the people around heard it, more than two days of carriage journey, making people drowsy, suddenly a worker shouted, so that the same sleepy people, are excited, is there something interesting.

Almost everyone who heard it leaned out and looked outside, and then the exclamations were endless, and the others were also alarmed, and they all looked outside, and on the side of their carriage, a huge construction site appeared in front of them, covering an area of thousands of square meters, where countless workers were working nervously.

These workers along the way, did not stop, Taiyuan also just rested for one night, and then on the nectar, two days, so that they are about to arrive in Suiyuan, what they see, is nothing else, is the toll station of Baotou to Suiyuan Highway under construction, this huge construction site, is one of the largest buildings in Baotou Highway, is an important hub to connect Baotou Suiyuan.

The two highways planned before, one to Zhangjiakou, one to Taiyuan, but these two roads, and Baotou, there is a small overlap, this is the road from Suiyuan to Baotou, from here, towards Taiyuan, towards Zhangjiakou highway, here parted ways, one turned to the south, one continued to the east, so it has also become an important hub connecting the two roads, this toll station is also the largest, but also the longest building of the project.

Because of the huge investment, and the reason for concern, the construction of this building is very fast, and now the toll station has begun to take shape, the three-story building, covering an area of thousands of square meters, and the barren and backward slopes of the loess slope before, showing a huge difference, not as prosperous as the Bund in Shanghai, but the comparison is amazing enough.

It's like the sudden appearance of a warship in a primitive society, which is shocking, and this building has attracted the attention of countless people, and everyone is in good spirits.

At this time, there was a huge roar in the distance, a monster, is driving fast here, from the outside, it looks like a car, but it is much larger than a car, the early car, but 20 kilometers per hour, or even lower, much slower than the electric cars of later generations, the speed of this monster can reach a speed of 35 kilometers, it is already amazing.

This roaring monster is the tractor that Yang Yuanzhao made that can carry people, this tractor has been specially modified, and a carriage has been added to the back, which is very well arranged, and it can also be passed in all places where there are no roads, and even this thing is more suitable than others, and the speed is also very fast.

This tractor is different from the tractor that Baotou usually makes, its front half is almost the same, but the back half is split, connected to a huge carriage, and it becomes long, strange.

If there are later generations to see, they will know that the front half of the crawler tractor is the front of the locomotive, and there is a carriage of about 7 meters behind it, and it is not used in the way of trailer and suspension of later generations, it is directly placed in the rear of the tractor track, and even for this reason, the territory and crawler of the tractor have been expanded, and the carriage of the 7-meter factory is 4 meters wide, so wide above, there are seats distributed in two or three, a total of 4 rows, and can sit at least 20 people.

The tractor rushed to the carriage at an unstoppable speed, and suddenly stopped at a distance of about ten meters from the carriage, and when the tractor was completely stable, Yang Yuanzhao jumped down from the car and asked, "Who is Nash!" ”

As early as when the tractor came, the carriage had stopped, and the people in the carriage came down to see the excitement, the continuous dull and barren journey made them feel strange about the qiē in front of them, there was a large construction site in front of them, which looked like a mechanical vehicle was roaring in the place, which had attracted everyone's attention, this strange thing came over, and it was even more eye-catching, when it was close, even the most ordinary workers could see that this thing was artificial, and some people even felt that he was somewhat similar to a car.

Hearing Yang Yuanzhao's question, a young German stepped out of the crowd and said, "I am Nash, are you Mr. Yang Yuanzhao?" ”

Nash is an employee of the German and American company, he is German, but he has been in Shanghai for at least 5 years, Chinese is very good, and even has a hint of Beijing film, because of the relationship to Baotou, Harpy specially showed him a photo of Yang Yuanzhao, because it was taken a few months ago, 25-year-old Yang Yuanzhao, and his appearance will not change much, but from the very beginning, he has become a little down-to-earth.

I don't know who Yang Yuanzhao is, but Harpy and the company's senior management especially emphasized that Yang Yuanzhao's order is the same as the company's management, which means that his work is also in the hands of Yang Yuanzhao.

"I am!" Yang Yuanzhao nodded, and after finishing speaking, he looked at the convoy, at this time the convoy had stopped, and even divided into two parts, one part, of course, was the transport aircraft equipment, they were given a death order, as long as it was not force majeure, they had to keep moving forward, with the fastest speed, the equipment was transported to Baotou.

When Yang Yuanzhao left yesterday, he left a few sets of similar carriages, which are being assembled, and it is estimated that they will be assembled today, so that almost all the people can be brought back, first of all, the engineers and a few technicians will be brought back first, and they must be retained.

Among the three engineers, one of them is called York, is a mechanical engineer, but also a car enthusiast, in his opinion, the car is modified from a horse-drawn carriage, using a steam engine as power, but he did not expect that this design, beyond the concept of wheels, replaced by tracks, tracks, with the help of tracks, in the uneven field, can also drive smoothly, do not need to consider the problem of sinking into, in the farmland, can easily operate.

After seeing this car, his eyes can't leave this car, and he knocked it hard in all directions of the car body, it is indeed steel, and the weight is amazing, plus the load and run so fast, such a simple calculation of the horsepower of the engine, very amazing, York can be sure, he knows that there is no similar engine in the world's automobile factories, it is difficult to do, Baotou is really a miracle place.
