Chapter 148: The Soap Factory
Three engineers from Germany, as well as seven technicians, among the workers, is also the best, they saw this huge building for the first time, the only idea is shock, this huge steel structure has not been completely completed, the whole is only 3 floors high, but each floor is a solid 5 meters, has not done a good job of exterior walls and painting, exposed thick steel bars, horizontal and vertical eight set up here, it is this, shocked these people, like a miracle.
Among these people, there are engineers, there are technicians, engineers are different from the engineers of later generations, the engineers of this era, most of them, are all-rounders, in many aspects, there are dabbles, the meaning of all-rounders is that they know a lot of things, the steel houses made of thick steel bars, is it hollow, York stepped forward, he is a mechanical engineer, but he has dabbled in many aspects, engineers who have a certain research on architecture, stepped forward, gently knocked on these steel bars, his face, There was a look of astonishment.
As far as the sound is concerned, this is solid, a steel bar with a diameter of about dozens of centimeters, all of which are solid, three layers of 15-meter-long steel bars, a certain amount of dù above, a behemoth, God knows, how much weight, several tons, or even dozens of tons of weight, ordinary machinery, can not lift at all, is this seemingly barren Baotou, on top of mechanical equipment, has surpassed the whole world.
Looking at a few people suddenly, even dull eyes, very satisfied with their creativity, if it wasn't for this direction to shock them, maybe after seeing Baotou, they would be completely disappointed, Yang Yuanzhao continued to move forward, and introduced these people into the house that had been built on the east side.
This is Yang Yuanzhao's special urgency, with more than 100 workers to rush to work, without doing the final processing and painting, but it can be called a factory, 3 floors high, hundreds of square meters of rooms, and various machines that have been set up in it, barely constitute the foundation of a factory, and even these devices have not been connected to power.
One of the three engineers, who has a certain understanding of chemistry and is also half a chemical engineer, looked at it a little and said with some astonishment: "These machines are all machines of chemical plants!" ”
"That's right, it's the machine of the chemical plant!" Yang Yuanzhao nodded and said.
This is exactly what Yang Yuanzhao is ready for, used to make caustic soda, as well as the factory that makes soap, it looks very small, even very simple, but it is all that can be done now, a full set of German equipment, Yang Yuanzhao did not modify, the chemical industry and the machinery manufacturing industry he is familiar with, there is a huge gap, he is far from the cement making machine qì like random adjustment.
"Faric, you seem to have worked in a chemical plant, wouldn't this be a chemical plant?" Jerry asked with some uncertainty, interlaced like a mountain, York and Jerry, they are both experts in machinery, from these machines, there are a lot of familiar things, but those big bottles and cans, are a little confused.
"It should be, you look over there, the huge reactor can complete the caustic soda neutralization, and the huge point solution tank over there should be the electrolysis of salt water, which is one of the basic machines for the production of sodium hydroxide." Farrick said, pointing ahead.
Caustic soda, who followed Yang Yuanzhao's side, visited this Yubei factory, are all industry-related personnel, the efficacy of three acids and two alkalis, they also know that York and Jerry are slightly lost, they are both engineers in terms of machinery and equipment, I thought it was a mechanical work, but I didn't expect that the first job I came here was just an engineer in a chemical plant, and a chemical plant would use a lot of professional machines, and they also had a place to use.
Yang Yuanzhao has long known their profession, Farrick is the more important one, he is almost related to the foundation of the chemical factory, the reason why he chose soap, is because in the work before Farrick, it is in the soap factory, among the other several technicians, there are 4 technicians who were born in the chemical factory, and they gathered them together, carefully discussed, about the production of the chemical plant, to see if there is any problem with this equipment and assembly line, if so, it can be adjusted at any time.
The workers are from Germany, this set of equipment, is a second-hand equipment imported from Germany, almost in a chemical plant dismantled backward equipment, and they use no different, the difference is nothing more than the overall efficacy and output, a few engineers and technicians for chemical projects to understand the circle, after almost a circle, finally identified a few problems, especially Farrick, not only familiar with the chemical process, and there is a special study, and even pointed out a few adjustments.
In terms of chemical industry, Yang Yuanzhao can't talk about it, but in the machinery industry, Yang Yuanzhao, who has an all-in-one machine, is definitely the big one among the big ones, as long as Farik puts forward the direction of the index and modification, Yang Yuanzhao can find a way to solve this problem, this set of machine qì equipment, is the equipment that Germany has eliminated, relative to China is still relatively new, and even powerful, but compared to Germany, at least 10 years worse, after a simple adjustment, to reach the mainstream of Germany Cheng dù, or can.
A circle down, under the attention of Farrick and others, in addition to the overall adjustment of the production line, the others are small problems, at most a day or two to complete the adjustment, the adjustment of the production line, Yang Yuanzhao is not ready to carry out on this production line, the scale of this chemical plant is not large, what Harpy bought, is just a simple, annual output of no more than 1200 tons of caustic soda, the production of soap will not exceed 3000 tons of small factory, there is the possibility of expansion and expansion, based on the construction of the factory, it is inconvenient to expand.
Yang Yuanzhao's plan is to prepare that when the factory is successfully operational, gradually train workers, and then slowly expand, according to this foundation, gradually expand, among them, Farrick will play a very important role, he will be one of the founders of the future expansion of the chemical plant.
Visited this factory, with the help of Liu Shu, the workers were settled, about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, most of the workers have been pulled over, modified tractors, a total of 6, almost all arrived in advance, a time can complete the transportation of six or seven tons of things, and the speed is twice as fast as the general carriage, and not limited by the terrain, this tractor may be able to undertake the task of transportation.
Seeing such an effect, Yang Yuanzhao even had an idea in his heart to popularize this tractor, but in a blink of an eye, he dispelled this idea, which is almost impossible, the internal core of the tractor is the BMW 999 engine from later generations, which even uses a lot of materials from later generations, these are more advanced technologies than 100 years beyond this era, and the consequences of this technology leaking out are definitely not something he can bear, the scientific and technological research and development strength of the great powers far exceeds that of China, If you get some inspiration from this, the development of science and technology is very bad for China. To Suiyuan, because it is in the wilderness, occasionally to Suiyuan to pick up a group of people, not too many people will notice, but to Datong, or even Taiyuan, is to be watched, in this case, in case of attracting other forces, it will be more than worth the loss, now Baotou is still very small, far from being able to confront others.
Mengsheng made a fortune, in fact, now, the Baotou industry has begun to take shape, four or five large-scale factories in a certain sense, more than 5,000 workers, in the current Qing Dynasty, can be said to be unique, the only thing lacking is the strength of officialdom.
In this regard, for the time being, Yang Yuanzhao does not plan to intervene, first, the four families and these landlords in Baotou can already provide some official support, not at any cost, but it is enough, on the other hand, this seemingly huge Qing government, at most three years, will collapse, three years, is not enough to do a lot of arrangement.
Back home, Yang Yuanzhao turned on the all-in-one machine, in the task of three acids and two alkalis, the option of sodium hydroxide, the degree of completion progressed from 0, all of a sudden to 52, the required personnel and engineers, also basically up to standard, the engineers and technicians recruited by Western standards, basically, are also in line with the standards of the all-in-one machine, in this case, Yang Yuanzhao's heart was slightly put down, no matter what, the hope of completing the task is there, he imported a full set of equipment from Germany in addition to nitric acid, the equipment of these small factories, Yang Yuanzhao has no bottom in his heart, this caustic soda plant has been recognized by the all-in-one machine, and everything else is the same.
In addition to the chemical plant meeting the standards, Yang Yuanzhao also determined another thing, this person, not signed a contract with Germany and the United States, reached the intention to come, but to Baotou, to the place of work, will be displayed on the all-in-one machine, in this way, even if Smith in Shanghai, built a real room, can not complete the work of the science and technology leader, unless Smith is willing to come to Baotou.
This is impossible, with Smith's strength, because of the annual sponsorship of 2 million US dollars, he is willing to come to China, which is a very excessive request, and then to this poor and white Baotou, it is almost a non-dividing request, and in addition, Smith is different from others, he has not signed a complete agreement, from a certain Cheng dù above, he is in a cooperative relationship with Yang Yuanzhao, and many secrets are not convenient to leak in front of him.
It seems that the project of the leader of science and technology should still be placed on Yang Yue's body, with this verification, there must be a certain amount of Cheng dù above, Yang Yue's classmates, basically all have passed the assessment of engineers, such a person, at least one senior researcher is no problem, as long as this group of people arrives, the agricultural practice room can be formally established, in this case, the task of science and technology is completed logically.
