I am king in troubled times Chapter 62 The idea of the four-wheeled carriage

Liu Liu completely let go this time, and at this moment he finally found the dignity of being a 'brother-in-law', which made him happy and infatuated with it.

Wang Bi was angry and funny, and frequently showed Wang Xuan a look and saved some face for Liu Liu.

Wang Xuan was so drunk that he pretended to ignore the gesture of his eldest sister Wang Bi, and did not stop until Liu Liu got under the table.

"You two are really, are you satisfied?" Wang Bi looked at Wang Xuan and shook his head helplessly.

"I've been depressed for a long time recently, what's the point of relaxing, isn't this all quite happy, tomorrow when he wakes up, you have to keep your mouth shut, otherwise you may be anxious about what it looks like." Wang Xuan quipped.

"Somehow, his fear of you is almost engraved in his bones, and he even mentions you with a cautious look, hey. Wang Bi was also puzzled when he talked about Liu Liu, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, but he was afraid of Wang Xuan.

"They all said that they were drunk and spit out the truth, and he just said that he would protect me thoroughly, which shows that he is not afraid of me, but respects me. Wang Xuanmei said.

"Proud of you, I've gone back, and I've been feeling a little weak and lacking in energy lately. ”

"Go to the First Hospital and don't catch the cold. ”

"You also pay attention to rest, Yue'er's affairs are up to her, whether it is good or Lai, it is her own choice, if you are blessed, you will enjoy the sin, I hope that the spirit of my father and mother in the sky can protect her for a lifetime of happiness." ”

In the next few days, Wang Xuan inspected the representative factories of Jixiang, one to show his importance to them, the second to encourage R&D investment, the development of new products and new technologies, and the third to solve some inherent problems for enterprises.

The coal mine, Yongsheng porcelain factory, cement factory and other workers' housing has been completed and put into use, and the workers pay in installments, pay half of their salaries every month to repay the monthly payment, pay off the arrears in three or five years, and have the right to use the house for 50 years.

After 50 years, the government will repossess the land and allocate new property rights, which will also be discounted and cashbacked. Therefore, after the house is completed, it must pass the quality inspection of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau and pass the quality inspection before it can be put into use.

Vincent is renovating and more than doubling in size, with a mix of stone, brick and cement, reinforced concrete in key areas, and a much smaller amount of wood and bamboo. The glaze research of the institute has also entered the experimental stage, and the unremitting efforts and attempts in the past two years have also come to fruition.

The research and development of crucibles in steel mills also has a clue, and Wang Xuan has invested a lot of manpower and financial resources because of its irreplaceability.

It is an important part of chemical instruments, a container for melting and refining metal liquids, as well as solid-liquid heating and reaction, and the basis for ensuring the smooth progress of chemical reactions.

The sample crucible is made of crystalline natural graphite as the main material, and is intended to be used for the evaporation, concentration or crystallization of burning solid substances and solutions, and is indispensable before the material of glassware meets the use standard.

Inspired by graphite crucibles, the institute also trial-produced iron cast crucibles, which are made of cast iron and used to melt metal alloys with low melting points such as aluminum alloys and tin alloys, which are more durable than iron crucibles.

Wang Xuan feels that 56 years will be the most important year for auspiciousness, knowledge and experience will be fruitful this year after several years of accumulation, science and technology will move to a new level, and auspiciousness will explore a broader space.

On April 12, Wang Xuan brought in Qian Duoduo and held a logistics work meeting with various merchants.

The factory visit gave him a lot of inspiration, the auspicious inland shipping industry is developing vigorously, and the individual shipping industry with individual families as the unit is also developing rapidly, and the logistics and passenger flow are frequent.

After negotiating with the Navy Shipyard and the Lyuin River Shipyard, Sun placed an order for 20 cargo ships at one time, resulting in the order of the Lyuin River Shipyard has been scheduled for the middle of the year, especially the cement flat-bottomed cargo ship is the most favored.

The Liuyin River Shipyard also had to expand its scale, on the one hand, to increase the construction slipway of passenger ships, and on the other hand, to expand the ship's upper outfitting team, and to recruit talents everywhere.

Compared to waterways, land transportation is much more cold.

When the auspicious construction of the collar, everyone used the wheelbarrow, simple to make, low cost, can adapt to more complex road conditions, and now the construction site still uses the wheelbarrow as the main building material means of transportation.

With the continuous development of the mascot, several major roads have also taken shape, and some local merchants have introduced two-wheeled horse-drawn carriages from the inland to travel, and gradually this kind of horse-drawn carriage has become popular, and it is very convenient to carry people and goods.

After Wang Xuan succeeded to the throne, he began to vigorously develop the economy, and Jixiang began to have money to invest in road construction, the road mileage increased several times, and the road conditions were even better, so the popularity of two-wheeled carriages was even higher.

Although two-wheeled carriages are popular in Jixiang, the capacity is still too low for the booming Jixiang.

With the increasing number of factories, population, buildings, etc., horse-drawn carriages, which were the main force of land transportation, also increased, and their occupation of roads once reached as much as 80%.

A large part of the reason for this phenomenon is the low carrying capacity of two-wheeled carriages.

The appearance of the container facilitated shipping, but not the two-wheeled carriage freight, and the obvious design defects of the car body made it unable to carry the girder of land transportation.

"There were businessmen, factory representatives, workers' representatives, logistics representatives, and Mr. Qian from the research institute, and the purpose of this meeting was simple, to improve land transportation. Wang Xuan has always been straight to the point.

"There are more and more vehicles coming and going on the Two Rivers Avenue, and it is getting denser and denser. In the past, some people complained that I spent money indiscriminately, and it was a waste to build such a wide and good road, so it was better to bring in some teaching gentlemen and build a few schools, what is it now?"

Wang Xuan: This is a feeling, how can repeated construction be worry-free in one step.

"There are now only about 20 factories in the development zone, and the combined population of Jianye Town and Lianhua Town is only 50,000; after the gradual development of the southern part of the country, will Lianghe Avenue still be able to meet the requirements of land transportation? I don't think so, at most in three years, the population of Hedong will exceed 300,000, and there will be hundreds of factories, and the volume of transportation is far from sufficient. ”

Development is a snowball, with the right direction and financial and technical support, it is difficult to succeed.

The preferential policies of the industrial park are very large, the first year is tax-free, the second year and a half tax, loans, technical support is also given priority, it has been the first choice for entrepreneurs, if it is not for the auspicious population is too small, the enterprises settled in the development zone have already doubled.

"We have progressed from a unicycle to a two-wheeled carriage for more than ten years, and now I hope to progress from a two-wheeled carriage to a four-wheeled carriage, which is a product of the progress of the times and the only way for the development of auspicious land transportation. ”

"Young master, whether it is a buyer or a seller, they all hope that there will be a large capacity of transportation to reduce transportation costs, but at present, the four-wheeled carriage cannot be turned, and the road traffic flow is large, which can easily cause traffic accidents, and the disadvantages are far beyond the affordable range," said Guo Youcai, the housekeeper of the Guo family.

"Solving the steering problem of the four-wheeled carriage is only the first step, due to the increase in the load capacity, it is difficult for a single horse to pull a fully loaded four-wheeled carriage, generally two horses or even three horses, four horses to do, but our horses are not rich. The Du family representative added to the difficulties faced by the popularization of the four-wheeled carriage.

"Yes, after these two problems are solved, the sturdiness of the carriage is another problem, let alone the comfort, in the case of a large increase in load capacity. Representatives of the Gu family also participated in the speech.

"Young master, you are a person with great wisdom, just say what to do, the Yao family is not ambiguous. After the representative of the Yao family spoke, everyone also gossiped, how can you have the Yao family alone.

Wang Xuan naturally knows the market's thirst for new transport vehicles, but no one is willing to take the lead in doing this, the difficulty is not only the above, the most important thing is materials and funds.

Under the condition that the existing transportation capacity can keep up with the market demand, everyone is unwilling to toss a huge investment but the result is unpredictable, and this willingness can be seen from the increasing number of Guo's ships.

"Mr. Qian, you can tell everyone about the achievements of the research institute, so that they can have a reassurance. Wang Xuan said to Qian Duoduo.

After Qian Duoduo gestured, he said: "Everyone, I don't understand the technical process of the four-wheeled carriage, but I still know a little about the materials." Our institute has recently discovered several new substances that, when mixed with iron or steel, can form a completely new alloy. Some of them are tough and abnormal, the compression ability is outstanding, and some have good ductility, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, we have done experiments, the performance indicators of the same volume of new materials are more than ten times that of traditional materials, so we don't have to worry about the production of four-wheeled carriages, we have made a breakthrough. ”

The representatives present and several giants in the logistics industry will be skeptical of this statement, and they are deeply influenced by the government's style of acting, and pursue the attitude of seeing is believing and hearing is false.

"The new materials have indeed entered the actual verification stage, as Mr. Qian said, and there is no need to doubt it. Wang Xuan said, "Then let's talk about the supply of horses." ”

"It must not be a secret that the horses were imported from Hu Yue and transferred to Jixiang through the Beixingyao River, and this line could not last long. "The mascots present all knew that once Wang Du and Jixiang tore their faces, there was a high chance that this trade route would be cut off.

"Today, we have a reserve of nearly 1,000 horses, the second generation of foals nearly 100, so we are not short of horses, after the two rivers road is completed, we have an outlet to the sea, auspicious foreign trade will no longer be subject to others. ”

The Lianghe Avenue is well known, and with the support of the Xishan Sun family, it is expected to be completed by the middle of the year, when the natural harbor in the south will come in handy.

Nowadays, the auspicious new reinforced concrete ship technology is becoming more and more mature, and there are more and more skilled workers, and it is a matter of time to build a large ship that can go to sea, so Wang Xuan's judgment is still very agreeable.

"Speaking of steering, I've made a model, you see. ”

Wang Xuan put the mini carriage with steering function on the table, and the tow bar was tied by a rope, when the rope was pulled, the carriage would move freely and turn, and the on-site personnel were surprised, and the mouth was full of praise, and the heart was much hotter.

"In fact, the steering problem is not difficult to solve, we are induced by the inherent thinking, and see, the first two wheels of the carriage are mounted on one frame, the rear two wheels are mounted on the other frame, and the rear frame is on the front frame, connected by a vertical axle, in fact, this is a combination of two two-wheeled vehicles. ”

Everyone took a closer look, and it was really the case, and some people at the scene exclaimed their stupidity and missed a great invention, which caused everyone to laugh.

"When the front wheels are steering, the entire frame is steering, not the individual wheels, which are fixed to the axle and have no steering function. When the steering angle of the front wheel is small, it needs a higher and larger steering space, and it is not difficult to solve this problem, one is to put the front wheel frame in front and design it in the open air; the other is to make the front wheel smaller, so that there is enough height difference between the front wheel and the bottom plate, so that the front wheel can be steered at any angle at the bottom of the car. ”

Immediately, Wang Xuan began to demonstrate how the four-wheeled carriage model can steer freely when the traction rope changes the direction of traction.

"With the successful development of new materials, some key positions that play the role of load-bearing, anti-wear and compression, anti-bump and so on can be replaced by this. Once the new horse-drawn carriage is successfully developed, the transportation efficiency will be greatly improved, and the operating cost will also be saved, you know, the load capacity of the four-wheeled carriage can be three to five times that of the two-wheeled carriage. ”

The scene was in chaos for a while, and according to the current known conditions, it seems that the four-wheeled carriage can be put into trial production?

"The Lord's Mansion is preparing to build an auspicious vehicle factory, and the four-wheeled carriage is just one of the products, in addition to two-wheeled bicycles, three-wheeled transport vehicles, etc., I wonder if you are interested in joining?"

Wang Xuan was like a big bad wolf who deceived the lamb at this time, and finally revealed his true colors.
