After establishing the administrative and military affairs of the Qin Kingdom, the next step is large-scale infrastructure construction. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

First build the cities along the Persian Gulf coast and the cities of the two river basins, and the port of Jeddah itself has a certain foundation, but it is much more convenient to expand.

Free labor from the Southwest Dominion arrived one after another, and he carried out the construction of railroads and other projects such as barracks, schools, hospitals, offices, etc.

According to Zhang Wei's discussion with the Ministry of Construction and railway project planners, the railway with low difficulty was built first, from Xijing to Basra to Baghdad, all the way to Hedong Province and Lianghe Province.

The second railway is the railway from Xijing to Dammang and the branch railway from East Basra to Ahvaz.

At present, the cement and steel needed to build the railway are transported from Shangjing ships, which is very costly, so the Ministry of Construction has proposed to build several large cement factories in Sai Van Province near the Zagros Mountains, to make use of the local high-quality limestone resources.

In order to ensure that Qin's economic development and engineering construction proceeded in an orderly manner, Zhang Wei instructed the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Industry to make a reasonable and comprehensive plan.

Zhang Wei first set up power plants in Xijing, Baghdad, Ahvaz, Dammam, Baghdad and other places, and the fuels needed were natural gas and coal, for example, the power plant in Abbas used coal as energy, and the power plants in Dammam, Xijing and other places used the cheapest natural gas generator sets and diesel generator sets, the investment was relatively small, and the results were relatively fast.

In order to solve the energy problem as soon as possible, Zhang Wei decided to build an oil field and refinery in Hofufu after consulting with Pangshan and others, and build a large cement plant there and a residential area in his oasis.

For oil production plants and refineries, Zhang Wei directly selected the best equipment in the 90s, with a planned oil extraction capacity of 1 million tons per year, and the refinery matched it. With energy, it is easy to use local high-quality limestone to build cement plants, and with cement plants, concrete sleepers can be poured.

After Zhang Wei arrived in Hufufu, he first worked as technicians for the synthetic oil production plant, oil refinery and cement plant, and then released the relevant equipment from the system, and they selected the location for installation.

Zhang Wei couldn't stay away for the time being, and he immediately purchased all kinds of materials needed for the project from the system, including cement, tools, and even screws and labor protection gloves needed to lay the foundation in the early stage.

The workers needed were one division of the Wehrmacht released by Zhang Wei, so that all the security and confidentiality problems were solved.

In order to save a lot of trouble, Zhang Wei synthesized the mayor of the city and established the municipal government to be responsible for logistics support; In addition, the directors, technical directors, and production directors of oil production plants, oil refineries, and cement were synthesized to form management teams.

Zhang Wei also gave this place a beautiful name, Pearl City, which will be the pearl of the desert, bringing light and wealth to the empire.

The foundation of the first oil well has been laid, and the equipment can be installed in 2 days, the oil quality here is very good, and the buried layer is more than 2000 meters, which is not difficult for the technology of the 90s; Other oil pipelines, storage equipment and refinery equipment are also being installed in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the management personnel, and it is estimated that oil will be produced in three months, and diesel and gasoline will be produced in six months.

A large amount of coal was transported from Palembang to the coastal ports, and now the Imperial transport ships are up to 8,000 tons, carrying more than 5,000 tons of coal each time, and due to the diesel engines used, the speed is fast, which is very convenient and fast.

Brick and tile factories have also been set up in various places, and along the planned railway, each county and city has built one, and the ready-made equipment provided by Zhang Wei was quickly established, and the diesel generator sets were used at the beginning, and Zhang Wei purchased a part of the diesel from the system, followed by diesel fuel transported from Yangon.

The situation is similar in cement plants, which will soon be able to produce products.

The free labor force that has arrived now has been dispatched to build cement factories and brick factories, and some are learning to pour cement sleepers, and some are building railway foundations, and as long as the sleepers and rails arrive, they can be installed directly.

The railway planners were divided into three parts, and the first part was to explore and design the railway from Bandar Abbas to Afghanistan, and after the planning and exploration were clear, construction began immediately, for which a large cement plant was also built in Abbas.

The second group supervised the construction of the railway from Bandam province to Two Rivers province.

The third group of people will plan and explore the ring railway from Dammam to Riyadh and from Dammam to Muscat to Port Aden to Sana'a and Mecca.

Each province is organizing personnel to raise and plant date palm trees, and improving the local environment is a priority for the provincial government; The counties and cities also allocated farmland that could be cultivated to the residents, who lived in the houses left over from the original aborigines, and when the conditions were ripe, they slowly built two-story brick buildings for each family.

After the brickyard was built, it was used not only to build railways, but also to build hospitals and schools.

Others were organized to build and improve the original improvised roads to ensure the smooth progress of the railway construction.

The first railway to be built was from the cement plant to Ahvaz to Basra, so that cement and sleepers could be easily transported outward. Construction then proceeded from Basra in a north-west and south-east direction.

The four brigades of the mercenaries were also stationed in four places to supervise the work of free labor; There is also a part of the Defence Corps that is responsible for some free labour, mainly in brick and tile factories, cement factories and sleeper factories, as well as in the construction of schools and hospitals.

During this period, Zhang Wei also went to Jeddah once and put the two national defense divisions for the 18th Army out.

Chittagong is the only window for foreign exchange in Qin, and the infrastructure construction task is very heavy, and Zhang Wei unconditionally satisfies the materials they need.

Then I went to Djibouti to help build a large power plant and a cement plant with an annual output of 1.5 million tons of cement in Djibouti.

The local limestone resources and gypsum resources are very abundant, which is not conducive to some pity.

Djibouti's cement is mainly for local demand and takeaways, but the Red Sea province alone needs a lot of cement for the construction of railways, and a lot of cement is needed for the construction of infrastructure such as ports, docks and warehouses.

By the way, a cattle and sheep slaughterhouse and a beef and mutton canning factory were established in Djibouti.

Thirty large fishing vessels with refrigeration equipment, as well as two sets of seafood processing equipment and canning equipment, were left for Du Shihui to install in the ports of Berbera or Mogadishu as needed.

At the ports of Jeddah and Djibouti, Zhang Wei also built two docks for them to provide maintenance services for passing ships, one with a seat of 3,000 tons and the other with a capacity of 8,000 tons.

Zhang Wei's behavior made Du Shihui very happy, and he suggested: "Your Majesty, you have helped me so much, and give me another set of salt processing equipment, so that I can develop the resources of Asar Lake. ”

Zhang Wei spread his hands and said, "I also want to help you, but I don't understand it either, I have already taken a sample, and when I return to the empire, let the people of the Academy of Sciences test it, and then decide how to mine it after coming up with a plan." It's also distressing to have so many resources not to be utilized. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
