The opening of the Nanjing-Hangzhou Railway is not just the opening of a railway. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

With the construction of the Jiangnan Railway, from Jiangning to Rufen Town in Ruzhou, this line has come, and the people and businessmen along the line have benefited from it.

The construction of railways requires workers, and the construction team provided by the system is responsible for the main core technology, but road repair, road paving, handling, mining, etc., which require a lot of manpower, which is a huge labor demand, and the labor remuneration given by the Qilin Army is also relatively sufficient and reasonable, and the people around are willing to come here to work.

In this way, it is bound to cause a lot of people to flow here, and there will naturally be traders with the flow of people, which is another transaction for the traders.

Moreover, the construction of the railway also requires a variety of other materials to cooperate, and there are many businessmen who have taken a fancy to this business opportunity, so they have also followed the example of the factory company of the Qilin Army, and set up a professional company to provide service needs for the supporting materials and so on on the railway side.

The people who came here to work also had some other needs, which further stimulated business.

The construction of a railway is accompanied by the rise of countless commercial chains.

Eventually, the railroad was built, but the original area gradually became a small gathering place, a small market, and so on.

That's development!

At the same time as the railway was being built, it was also recruiting railway maintenance workers.

Both sides of the railway are blocked by barbed wire fences, which is afraid that the people or some wild beasts will break into the railway by mistake, in case they are hit by the train, it will be bad, but in order to avoid the frequent rate of the people crossing the railway, Li Chu asked them to build a lot of bridges and holes below when building the railway, so as to facilitate the people to pass the railway.

In later generations, it was because there were so few such bridges and tunnels that there were so many examples of crossing railways.

In addition, the people of this era are still a new thing about railway trains, they are very curious, and they don't understand, what if their brains rush over to see the train when the time comes?

Therefore, in addition to adding barbed wire fences on both sides of the railway, Li Chu also ordered the squires who passed through the railway to conduct some simple science popularization for the people in their respective areas, that is, to tell the speed of the train, as well as the dangers of crossing the railway, how to make the train, how much the train ticket costs, and so on.

Of course, as a special note, it is strictly forbidden to steal train tracks without permission!

This command is a dead order.

In addition to setting up train maintenance workers to take care of the railway and maintain it, Li Chu also gave a year-end reward to the squires who passed through the trains.

The so-called year-end reward is the railway range that you are responsible for taking care of, there is no tragedy caused by crossing the road during the year, and the train tracks are stolen, then at the end of the year, the court will give you a reward, there are two kinds of rewards, one is money, not much money, and for the squires, this money is not eye-catching, mainly the meaning, the other is the honor, the significance of this honor is relatively large, and in some other assessments, this honor also accounts for a more important assessment proportion.

At the same time, this honor will also receive some simple privileges in the county, which do not affect the small privileges of the people.

This is not only an honor, but also a status symbol.

That's what these squires value.

In addition to the reward, there must also be a punishment.

Once a train track is stolen within whose area of responsibility, then this punishment is relatively large, not only the reward is not, but the squires also have to be punished with a cane, there are two kinds of cane, one is to directly reprimand the cane after the theft, the other is to recover the stolen rails, or find the thief, then the second cane can be exempted. If the thief is not found within the prescribed time limit, the squire in charge of the area will have to perform a second cane.

This is also to mobilize their enthusiasm to find thieves, after all, they are all squires, and they are also familiar with the people in their responsible area, and they know more or less what kind of character they are, so that they can find the thieves as soon as possible.

For this reason, these squires will more or less strictly prohibit such thefts within their own territory.

The reason, I know who is the character, and I can guess who will have the courage.

For the stealing of the railroad rails, it was obviously the honor that the county bestowed was more important.

Then there is the punishment for stealing railroad tracks on the Kirin Army's side.

Once discovered, kill it directly, without any reason.

Not only the thieves were killed, but even the three generations of the thieves' families were all affected and arrested together, the difference is that their families will not be killed, but they will have to serve twenty years of hard labor.

At the same time, the blacksmiths and others in each county also received a warning, once they found out that someone came to the blacksmith with rails to smelt, then if the blacksmith chose to denounce it, the unicorn army would have a huge silver reward, if they chose to conceal it and not report it, the blacksmith and the thief would be punished with the same crime.

With such severe punishments and punishments, coupled with other supporting measures, it is estimated that no one dares to eat the bear's heart and leopard gall to steal the railroad tracks.

At the same time, Li Chu was not very afraid of being stolen by them.

First of all, there is the installation of rails, after all, these things need to use screws.

Once these are fixed, it is difficult to loosen these screws without a board or corresponding tools, and these tools are only available on the side of the Kirin Army, and where do the people have such tools, let alone the people, even in this era. The only way is to forcibly pry it open, but if there is no matching tool, it takes a lot of strength and time to pry it open, and the time to pry open one is enough for people to find out, not to mention that if you want to steal a railroad track, you need to pry open more than ten buckles, which is not something that can be done in one or two hours.

It takes so long, and no one dares to mess around like this.

This is one of them.

The second is the material of the rails.

The rails are made of steel, and the rails used in railways have to withstand enormous pressures, so they need to be made of very high quality steel.

How can such steel be melted with the current refining process of the Northern Song Dynasty?

They can't even make a thousand degrees, how can they melt steel? Or is it this high-strength steel?

What is the reason why these people like these rails? It's not because of the iron or rigidity of the rails, they melt these things to refine other things, but this thing can't even melt at all, and this thing also refines other things.

Not to mention fighting, how long is a railroad track?

The length of the railroad track is twenty meters, and if this thing were to take it away, it would be too conspicuous once he walked around.

It's not just conspicuous, it's just an eye-catcher.
