Chapter 365: If you want to get rich, build roads first

"Isn't it just that there are few people, this is easy to do. With your status in the architectural industry, how can you know a lot of friends and partners? Pull them in, together. ”

The royal family is a well-known leader in the construction industry.

The ancestral house has been repaired for so many years, and it is not normal to have a few good partners.

If you want to recruit good construction craftsmen, there is nothing more reliable than Niu Gao coming to find them in person.

"By the way, don't look for someone who doesn't want to come. The level of secrecy in the above-ground building of the institute is very high, and if you can't pass the political examination and examination, I will ask you. ”

At the end, Xia Ling added.

It's a knock, but also a reminder.

There is no doubt about the importance of the Martial Spirit Research Institute, and it must not be sloppy in its construction.

In this regard, he was going to let the worshippers of the Wuhun Hall take turns to be overseers.

Listening to Xia Ling's words, Niu Gao slapped his chest with a snapping sound.

"Your Royal Highness, Holy Son, don't worry, my old cow is absolutely reliable. The person who can let me go to find it in person is definitely an old guy who has cooperated with our royal clan for dozens or hundreds of years, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. ”

......

Just when Xia Ling and Niu Gao were discussing this matter, Niu Ben, who was dozens of miles away, seemed to feel his father's chatter and couldn't help sneezing.

Obviously, he was the one who was diverted to build the road, and now he was ordered to build a concrete road to Notting City.

If you want to get rich, build roads first.

Xia Ling deeply agrees with this sentence.

A good road can accelerate all kinds of transportation in a strategic sense, and can drive the development of the surrounding areas in an economic sense.

This is absolutely necessary.

Therefore, after the construction of several large cement plants, Niu Ben was rushed to repair the road.

It can't be helped.

Who let that in the royal clan, only Niu Ben and the rest of the clan are specialized in the road?

Of course, since it is to build roads, it is definitely not possible to rely on a few of them.

In addition to several clansmen of the Imperial Clan, several soul master craftsmen, and many ordinary craftsmen who are in charge of miscellaneous items, there are also more than thirty special soul masters.

They are all from the Weevil Sect.

In the list of the Elephant Armor Sect's common abilities, there is one that is similar to Zao Wouji's gravity field.

This soul skill is definitely a must when used to build roads.

At the construction site, a large number of road repair workers are in full swing.

First of all, the original dirt road was leveled.

The disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect exerted their strength in unison, releasing their soul skills to tamp the ground.

In order to enhance the solidity of the cement road, another layer of sand and gravel is also laid on top as a cushion.

The disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect continued to exert their strength, crushing the roadbed and ramming it again.

At this time, the concrete that the soul master craftsmen had mixed by hand had already taken shape.

After painting the combination of cement and mortar, the concrete is poured into a large mold prefabricated on the road.

Ordinary craftsmen came together to level the concrete layer.

As for the fact that the Wuhun Hall has not yet made a special engineering vibrator for breaking stones, what should I do?

Never mind.

The disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect continued to release their soul skills to crush with gravity.

If there is an uneven place, lay a special layout, and a crushing past is enough to get it.

After a complete draw, ordinary craftsmen played again.

They pushed a heavy stone roller made of black striped stone back and forth, ensuring that the road surface was completely flat and highly uniform.

Finally, manually smooth the unsmooth part of the cement surface and wait for the cement to solidify.

In this way, a section of concrete pavement is completed.

Compared to Bluestar's road builders, who use modern machines to repair roads, it is not slow at all.

It's even a lot faster because of the soul technique.

The only thing that can restrain their speed is probably the recovery speed of soul power.

Fortunately, more than 30 disciples rotated back and forth, and there would not be an embarrassing scene where no one was available.

Niu Ben is stepping up the construction of easier cement roads, and the Wuhun Monthly is also equipped with propaganda, calling on the local people to cooperate.

Far away in the hinterland of a certain kingdom in the east of the Heaven Dou Empire, the Martial Spirit Hall has a larger construction plan.

Railway!

This is a puppet kingdom that almost completely belongs to the Wuhun Palace.

At the same time, it is also the starting point of the first railway of Wuhun Palace.

One of the largest iron ore areas in the possession of the Wuhun Temple.

Every year, the iron ore and other associated ore veins produced in this large mining area are enough to account for nearly one-fifth of the entire Martial Spirit Palace.

If a railway can be built here, only a few trains will be needed to meet the transportation needs in the future.

This is much cheaper than using a horse-drawn carriage.

From the point of view of the difficulty of construction.

The entire terrain of the kingdom is located in the plains.

Except for a bridge across the river, there is no need to think about going up a mountain or a cave.

If you really want to drill a cave, it's not impossible.

But for the Martial Spirit Hall without a shield machine, it may only be possible to let Golden Crocodile Douluo forcibly drill it......

From the point of view of construction costs.

The end of this railway is the mining area, and there are also two large lumber mills in the Wuhun Hall within the kingdom.

The supply of raw materials for rails and sleepers is convenient, which in turn saves a lot of transportation costs.

The stones can be made of local materials, and the soul masters can crush them with their hands.

From the point of view of human resources and maintenance.

The kingdom is all its own people and remote.

The kingdom under the control of the Wuhun Hall is safe, and there are fewer human resources required to maintain it, so there is no need to worry about someone plotting against the rails.

After considering the above conditions.

The Elder Group of the Martial Spirit Hall held a meeting and discussed it, and finally unanimously decided to build the first railway here.

On the side of the scientific research department, Wang Jianshe had already made the first locomotive by uniting the soul guide department and the forging department a long time ago.

Powered by a soul engine, it was tested for several kilometers in a no-man's land.

The test results can be said to be quite good.

It is even better than the old-fashioned green train that once made great contributions to Huaxia.

After some testing, it was found that this locomotive, named "Times No. 1", had almost caught up with the power of modern trains.

With such sample data, the researchers have a new plan for the composition of the number of subsequent carriages.

The original plan was to carry hundreds of tons of trains on top of the strength of the tracks.

At least 1,000 tons to start.

As a railway that has to bear thousands of tons of trains, it is much more difficult to build than a cement road built by Niu Ben.

For this reason, Xia Ling made a special trip to the Elephant Armor Sect and brought in a heavyweight.

Heavyweight in the sense of the word.

The construction of this railway was personally led by Hu Yanzhen, the sect leader of the Elephant Armor Sect.

Xia Ling said: As long as you build this railway clearly, you will be guaranteed to break through the title Douluo within five years.

After hearing this, Hu Yanzhen's elephant body shook, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

Not only did he lead a large number of disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect to join the construction of the railway, but he also personally went into battle to accelerate the construction.

He took the form of a giant diamond mammoth to assist the workers in laying the roadbed and tamping it.

He crushed the boulder with his huge hooves, turning it into gravel around the sleepers.

He put down the eighty-nine-level Contra shelf, carried the heavy I-shaped steel rails one by one, and laid them in place according to the instructions of the craftsman.

He led many tribesmen, using his power to the advantage of maneuvering construction machinery made of a large number of pulleys, and assisting craftsmen in erecting bridges made of forged metal.

The list goes on.
