At the same time as the sewer infrastructure project of Bluestone City was rapidly unfolding, a large amount of cement, red bricks, prefabricated slabs, and a large amount of river sand excavated from several nearby rivers using the "double-linked sand dredging ship platform" designed by Gu Yi were continuously transported to the huge Ishihara construction site by trucks and horses.

The so-called "double-linked sand dredging ship platform" is actually nothing more than two large ships, connected into a tic-tac-toe floating platform with strong logs, fixed with eight sets of anchors, and equipped with a mobile rappel grab composed of pulley groups, winches and cable shafts.

The crocodile-kissed iron shell-shaped grab is lowered to the bottom of the river after opening, closed by pulling the lever with a rope, grabbing the river sand at the bottom of the river, pulling it up through the pulley group, draining it in the river water, and then putting it into the jj under the derrick and transporting it to the shore, loading and transporting it away.

On a "duplex sand dredging ship platform", five groups of slide rail grab frames can be installed, and each group of slide rail grab frames can be installed with four shell-type grab buckets to operate at the same time.

The only problem is that the price of the big ship is too expensive, even through the relationship between Ziyu, the second-hand 丨Lou Fang丨 bought from the Nanwan Commercial Bank丨 cost about 100,000 gold.

According to Gu Yi's visual measurement, this so-called 丨 Lou Fang, the amount, up to the sky, is only about 50 tons, but this second-hand broken thing, it is still priceless, and it is not easy to look at the face of the "small businessman" of Xiao Shaoji, and only squeezed out of the hands of Nanwan Commercial Bank丨 20 ships, directly spent 2 million of Gu Yi's remaining funds

And even if Gu Yiken spends more money to buy, the Nanwan fleet is reluctant to sell more, because the number of large ships is limited, and there are only ten "double-linked sand dredging ship platforms" that have been transformed, which seriously limits the progress of sand mining, and the gas Gu Yi almost ordered to build a dock to build his own shipbuilding.

But after all, shipbuilding is not a problem that can be solved in a short time, Gu Yi can only give up this unrealistic idea, very depressed can only rely on the existing ten "double sand dredging ship platform" sand mining, and even in order to install more shell-type grabs, the building boat will be assembled and transformed into a "multi-linked" and "row-linked" platform, which is used in a wider area of the river.

According to the maximum installation of the slide rail grab frame and the shell-type grab, theoretically a total of 380 shell-type grabs can be installed, each shell-type grab is about one ton of sand each time, in the water depth is not large, a grasp and loading action, it takes about 15 to 20 minutes.

That is to say, if the extreme operation is carried out without stopping work 24 hours a day, theoretically, the daily output of the sand dredging platform composed of these 20 ships is as high as 27,360 tons of river sand, but in fact, taking into account various problems such as water depth, water width, dismantling, component failure, platform movement, etc., the daily output can reach 10,000 tons.

10,000 tons of river sand can only barely supply the consumption of the Shangshiyuan construction site, whether it is the output of red bricks, cement or prefabricated slabs, it is not realistic to meet the needs of building the city wall in a short time, Gu Yi can only temporarily give up the plan to build the city wall, and build the buildings in the city first.

In order to supply the needs of the super-giant construction site with a global area of up to 50 square kilometers, it has become a huge problem to transport building materials from the sand field by the river, or from the Qingwa Camp to the bluestone mine.

Although a stone tile road has been built, the transportation is much more convenient, but relying on thousands of cattle, horses, mules, donkeys and other livestock on the edge of the Qingwa camp, and the wooden carts dragged for transportation, the transportation volume is simply a drop in the bucket.

Gu Yi, who thought too simple at first, is now a little overwhelmed by the frequent size problems of various parts, and I can't wait for what kind of magic I can order such as summoning, and a big summoning technique will move the entire Chinese Academy of Sciences to the Great Wilderness.

Of course, this is just daydreaming, the meal has to be eaten in one bite, the road has to be walked step by step, he finally realized that before he realized, it was really a little ambitious, although the bluestone mine has a large number of labor, and also has a group of skilled craftsmen, but after all, this is still in the "original ecology" environment of the wilderness, not the world where he used to press the button and the machinery helped you level out.

Although he can't wait to build the bluestone city and the green tile city in one day, as the project unfolds, Gu Yi also becomes more and more aware that under the leadership of his former novel house, the completion date of the two cities may be far away.

He didn't know how much he hated himself when he was Mao, but he was much better than the novel.

Well, no matter how Gu Yi sighs, the matter will not be solved, and he, the chief engineer of the half-hung two knives, will have to find a way to solve it, and the transportation volume will not go up, and there will be no extra funds to buy a large number of cattle, horses, mules and donkeys for the time being, so the only way to do it is to find a way from the means of transportation

Gu Yi gritted his teeth and decided to launch the "intercity rail" and "animal-powered traction chain rail car" that he was still conceiving

Fortunately, there was a huge group of "technical personnel" behind him to drive, and Gu Yi urgently convened a "technical team" composed of master craftsmen and began to study how to solve the orbit problem.

If you want to use rails, it is unrealistic before he solves the large-scale ironmaking process, so he can directly use wooden rails that have mature experimental results in coal mines, but the service life is not long, and the failure rate and wear rate are too high.

But it doesn't matter, there are many forests on the bluestone mountain, with the pure natural green environment of the Great Wilderness World, the tree resources on this bluestone mountain range alone are enough for him to be a disaster for hundreds of years, and it is really not possible to "destroy first, then protect", and then find a way to plant trees in the future.

Anyway, during this period of time, with the upgrading of various production tools of carpenters and ironworkers, the productivity of the carpenter's battalion and the blacksmith battalion increased rapidly, and the 50,000 craftsmen who were recruited according to his mandatory order could also ensure that the wooden rails could be replaced with the breakage.

The only problem is the production speed of the groove iron wheel and bearing, don't think about the marble bearing, even if the blacksmiths are exquisite, a small amount of marbles that meet the requirements can be made, but the quality of the steel is far from reaching the degree that can make Gu Yi do as he likes, the wear rate is too large, the service life is too short, and it is not much use to make it, and the production of marbles by hand is too slow, and it cannot meet the needs of the upcoming "intercity track planning".

After Gu Yi put forward a bunch of ideas, but found that they could not be realized, he could only throw the "high-tech" aside, and directly use the casting method to mass-produce grooved iron wheels and round rods, which are worn, broken, and replaced with breakage

In this brute style, the "construction team" led by Gu Yi himself frantically laid eight 35-kilometer-long wooden sleeper roads on the Shiwa Highway in a short period of time, and manufactured countless box trucks in batches for transporting building materials

An "animal traction train" will be powered by four horses, carrying 12 iron-wheeled box cars with a theoretical load of 12 tons and a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, which is an average of two hours to transport.

Gu Yi and his gang formed a hundred such "animal-powered traction trains", but they were allocated more than 1,600 pack horses, an average of 16 pack horses per train, after all, the horses were grass-eating and not oil-drinking, and people had to rest.

The sixteen horses are divided into four groups, and each group rotates three times a day, that is, a "animal traction train" transports twelve times a day, and a total of 100 tractors transports nearly 15,000 tons of building materials a day

In order to ensure the smooth operation of the eight wooden sleeper roads, Gu Yi had to pile up a large number of spare parts along both sides of the Shiwa Highway, and at the same time sent a hundred maintenance teams to carry out 24-hour uninterrupted inspections and surprise repairs, which reluctantly supplied the building materials demand of the Shiyuan construction site

After several months of busyness, the links were finally barely connected, and on the huge stone plain, one after another neatly planned residential communities rose from the ground at a rate of almost one floor a day.

The scaffolding made of bamboo forms a grid on the outer wall of the building, and each bamboo is bound by the rattan bundles hammered into the old vines in the mountains.

The mixing tank made of thick tiles, prefabricated panels, and red bricks looks like a huge toilet, and a multi-layer propeller driven by a cow power winch stirs the cement mortar in the pool, and the people continue to pour baskets of sand and straw bags of cement into the mixing tank.

When the mixture is finished, the slurry outlet under the mixing tank is opened, and the viscous cement slurry flows out, poured into the trailers with waterproof tiles inside, and is dragged to various construction sites by muscular men.

Then the wooden winch elevator dragged by the old cow was pulled to the high construction layer, and then it was smeared on the red bricks layer by layer, and a layer of red bricks was neatly stacked

Such a picture is going on on the entire Ishihara at the same time, and I don't know how many thousands of people are working at the same time, and the fiery atmosphere exuded by the simultaneous work of thousands of people in the road looks very shocking and spectacular

According to the specifications of the Great Wilderness, this piece of community, should be called "Fang", but here in Guyi, I don't plan to call it that, in his planning, in the future, these communities will have their independent names, like what coal mining community, sand field community, brick factory community, lime factory community, cement factory community, carpentry community, masonry community, ironwork community...
