Chapter 149: Building Materials Formula?

"It's finally Samsung Silver, and it's really harder to upgrade the later. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Yi Xiaoge clicked on the smelter building details, this is a production building that requires physical and chemical technology mentors to build, which can refine and process various metal minerals into their own finished metal materials. I don't seem to have the talent in this area, so I won't consider it for the time being.

Buge had just been upgraded, and Bugg approached a senior construction technology instructor in the Hi-Tech District to develop a new type of construction material for the increasingly heavy construction tasks. As soon as Yi Xiaoge heard that it was a scientific and technological invention related to construction, he immediately went to the Cape of the Sea, construction is the most important thing for the super island owner, and the technology that can be beneficial to construction must be used.

Coming to the experimental base of the high-tech area, Bug took him to a separate vacated and disorganized courtyard. The courtyard was full of all kinds of stones, planks, mud and other things, and the stone floor of the small courtyard had accumulated thick dust, and in the middle of the small courtyard there was a very large blast furnace, and below it was a furnace burning coal, and several islanders were adding coal to the furnace.

Next to the blast furnace, Yi Xiaoge was surprised to find several stone sinks, and next to the sinks were stacked many small stones that had been smashed by the islanders, and there was a large amount of calcined white lime in the sink. Lime with a large amount of brown mud was found in other tanks, and behind the tanks there was a drying area of more than 20 square meters, where a mixture of lime and mud was piled up. At the back there is a windmill with a few meters wide that rotates with the sea breeze.

"This scene...... It can't be! Yi Xiaoge looked at these messy things, and suddenly thought of a thing called the food of construction.

"Mr. Yi, follow me!"

Bug took Yi Xiaoge to the wooden house in the small courtyard, where all kinds of clay pots, metal utensils, and many tools were piled up. In one of the corners, Yi Xiaoge found gray-brown cubes of mud one by one, as well as several cubes buckled by metal plates, some with mud blocks inside, and some without.

As if he heard movement outside, a voice came from another room: "Is it Mr. Bugg?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Sputin! I brought Mr. Yi over. ”

Bugg responded, and a moment later a middle-aged, blonde man came out with an apron, all stained with the dirt. Yi Xiaoge saw that this man was full of spirit and a kind of hard work.

"Aha! My Mr. Yi, you are finally here, and I have been waiting for this day! ”

"Hello Mr. Sputin, it looks like you're busy with your work."

"Mr. Yi manages the food, clothing, housing and transportation of so many people alone, that is the real busyness, I am just busy with it."

Yi Xiaoge was not verbose, and went straight to the point: "I heard Bug say that your R&D work has achieved results, and I came here to take a look!" ”

"Great, I'm waiting for you to come, come with me!"

Saying that, Sputin took Yi Xiaoge into the room where he was just now, and when he entered the room, it was still messy, and there was a large wooden table in the center of the room, on which there were round metal utensils one by one.

"Mr. Yi, come and see, this is my latest invention!"

Yi Xiaoge walked to the table and looked at the powdery plaster in the metal utensils, although he had an answer in his heart, he still asked, "What is this?" ”

Expelled, Sputin said, "This is a new building material that I have developed over a long period of time, and I have named it: cement!" ”

"Sure enough!" Although Yi Xiaoge knew that this was the result, he was still extremely excited when Sputin said it.

"Cement sets quickly when mixed with water and other sand and gravel, and has a very strong hardness when it dries thoroughly. It can be used as a binder for masonry materials, a cementing material, which can make buildings stronger. At the same time, it can be combined with steel and metal to build a very strong high-rise building! Through long-term research, I have found that the limestone that is common in our lives can be calcined and mixed with the clay used to make pottery to produce very good adhesion and strength. After researching, I finally found the optimal blending ratio and perfected a production method. This is a full guarantee for the construction and safety of our underground living area at the Cape of the Sea! ”

Cement first appeared in 1756, and the actual formation was in 1824, when it was invented by a construction worker with a similar name to this guy. Yi Xiaoge understood the use of cement very well, and he said very seriously: "Sputin, your results are simply too timely!" With your invention, our island will grow even faster! I am now approving a 20,000-square-meter site in District 2 for you to build a cement plant, so you must produce qualified cement quickly and efficiently. ”

"Great, Mr. Yi! My work can finally be presented to the world! ”

There is no doubt that cement is a very sought-after commodity, and all players know what it does, and he will personally oversee the construction of this project. Under Bugue's plan, a large plot of land on the eastern coast of the industrial zone was allocated to Sputin, which is close to the sea and has strong sea breezes, which is conducive to drying and grinding cement.

Yi Xiaoge mobilized 100,000 people to go to the Fourth District to mine the limestone ore and clay layers found there in Sputin, and then transport them to the cement factory, while Yi Xiaoge asked Bug to lead people to build a convenient and fast road to improve efficiency.

In line with the principle of mass production, Yi Xiaoge of the cement plant built 500 cement production lines at one time, and the coal mine was directly supplied from the coal mining area, and Yi Xiaoge sent 50,000 islanders to the cement plant for production in terms of manpower. The construction funds are allocated from the income of the trading center, which is only an initial investment anyway, and will be returned soon, and does not have much impact.

Sputin estimated that the daily output would be about 5,000 parts (which can be regarded as tons), and Yi Xiaoge asked Buge and other cement to be produced to first harden the roads of the three islands, and then the construction of the city walls of the Sea Horn Underground City and Tianya Island, and cement was the most suitable thing to build the city walls. Yi Xiaoge feels that this production is a drop in the bucket, but unfortunately now he really can't spare extra money to expand, so he can only boil it slowly, cement Yi Xiaoge plans to sell it for one gold, after all, this thing is a bulk commodity, it is too expensive to sell, and players can't afford to consume it, and there can be an income of 40,000 gold coins in a natural day.

Yi Xiaoge now feels that this million people have a lot of benefits, at least there is no shortage of people if they lack anything!

"Hemp eggs! When the infrastructure is done, we must squeeze the labor force of these islanders! ”
