Chapter 59: The Steam Engine Comes Around

"Fuck, bullshit Charleson, there's no end to it?!"

As Goodern explained, Joseph Sr. followed him in an angry curse.

The Charleson family was not looking for trouble once or twice, and this successive operations made Joseph Sr. a little irritable.

"Young Master, how are you going to arrange it this time?"

With the advance signal, Joseph Sr. looked at Goodern and asked about the arrangement.

"Hmm...... Let's go as usual for now, as if we didn't receive this letter. ”

Goodern thought for a moment and came up with a solution.

"Huh?" Old Joseph was a little confused, did the young master plan to resist?

"We don't know exactly what Charleson is stumbling on, and if we make arrangements in advance, it won't be easy to deal with if it's crooked."

After an explanation, Goodern paused and added.

"But it's not like doing nothing, I'll give me a copy of the expense records during this time, and I'll keep a bottom in my heart."

"Okay."

The young master had now officially taken over the power of governing the territory, and Joseph Sr.'s attitude was based on obedience.

Even if the governance was wrong, Joseph Sr. would not find it troublesome and irritable, but he might be happy.

After all, the young master's governance methods are all starting from scratch, and it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in the direction, so it should be regarded as accumulating experience.

After Joseph Sr. left, Goodern did not continue in the laboratory and returned directly to the study.

It would be a lie not to prepare, but for this unknown blow, the only thing he can do now is to speed up the development of the town again.

The stronger the territory, the more his status and strength will be further improved.

When he has enough strength, Gooden will definitely take revenge, but now he still has to slowly cultivate his strength.

In the study, Goodern looked at the project schedules and pondered which ones were more important.

After the rearrangement, Goodern decided to put construction and economic circulation on the agenda.

Originally, as a date for the big project, he planned to wait until after the first deal with Kanewon Castle to begin.

But now it seems that it must be started early to avoid being delayed by the Charleson family's 'sneak attack'.

With the task clear, Goodern summoned Buck, who was still forging the template for the steam engine.

The construction work is inseparable from the mining of lime mines, and at the same time the processing of lime is also a problem.

Calling Buck, Goodern throws the question straight away.

"The development plan has changed a bit, and now there is a new task in addition to forging components for steam engines."

With that, Goodern pushed the question of a rough limestone mining process to Buck.

"This machine works in conjunction with a steam engine, and its role is to process large quantities of stone into powder."

"There are some development ideas above that you can refer to, the plan is more urgent, you need to get the test model within a week, if you encounter forged parts can be handed over to me."

Buck quickly read the whole arrangement and nodded.

"No problem, if it's fast, it should be done in four or five days, and I'm almost done with the steam engine project, so I guess you can come to inspect it tomorrow."

"So fast?"

It's been less than two days since Goodern lost the steam engine project to Buck, and this is already about to be completed?

Buck smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Hehe, thanks to the knowledge you gave me, I've almost finished forging the details in one afternoon, and tonight it's some assembly and polishing tasks."

After listening, Goodern nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that the entry of the master smith is still very strong, and in just one afternoon, the most difficult part of the follow-up of the steam engine can be completed.

Then the two chatted briefly and went their separate ways.

At nightfall, Gooden went to see the recruits who had just finished five kilometers, and after a few words of encouragement, he went to the brick kiln factory to see the first batch of bricks to be baked.

When I came to the brick kiln factory, the huge furnace had been opened, and the residual temperature in the furnace was still wanton at the mouth of the kiln.

Fortunately, a preset track was reserved at the time of design, and the brick kiln workers only needed to pull out the fired brick cart with a hook and lock outside.

The bricks of a board cart were exactly five hundred pieces per side, and Goodern stepped forward to fetch a brick that still had residual warmth.

The appearance of the red tongtong, coupled with the feeling of heavy hands, is the familiar brick.

If there is no problem with the quality, the work will not stop.

The surrounding brick kiln workers quickly took out all the fired bricks, and then pushed the prepared bricks forward.

After a set, it took less than half an hour to restart the furnace.

Seeing the rekindled brick kiln, Goodern also put down to watch the excitement and returned to the castle.

All of today's changes had been used up, and Gooden went back to his room at night after studying the upgrade process for the 2.0 rifle.

……

Early the next morning.

Soon after Goodern got up, he received good news from Buck, an engineering research institute.

The experimental steam engine has been fully assembled!

After receiving the news, Goodern hurried to check it out.

At this time, in the warehouse where the steam engine was assembled, Buck and several apprentices were surrounding it for final verification checks.

"Young Master, wait a little longer, we'll check it out right away."

Seeing Goodern's arrival, Buck hurriedly said a word before continuing to inspect various parts of the steam engine.

Goodern didn't care about this, and found a vacant seat and began to look at the first experimental steam engine in another world.

The structure of this thing is not particularly complicated, and the cylinder, piston, connecting rod crank, flywheel and other components are combined to achieve continuous force output driven by steam.

To be honest, Gooden doesn't know the details of the interior, but he can understand how it works.

After a bit of back-pushing, and built by the experienced Buck, the experimental version of the steam engine will not be crooked no matter how much it deviates.

The inspection was over quickly, and Buck only knew a little about it, and it was up to the designer Gooden to start it.

"Get some charcoal and water, the water is a little cleaner, add it from here."

As the designer of the theme, Goodern began to arrange the start-up of the steam engine.

Soon, the apprentices completed Gooden's instructions: adding water to the tank, lighting charcoal, and heating and boiling water.

Under the influence of the fire, the water in the tank began to boil gradually, and the vaporization rushed in the direction of a path leading to the entrance of the valve.

As the pressure in the closed pipe gradually increased, Goodern flicked the control valve chain slightly, allowing the accumulated high-pressure steam to pour into the piston.

A surge of steam began to slowly push the piston, and as the control valve was rotated, the piston gas that was not fully operational was released.

This was followed by a new, more energetic influx of steam.

After such a little bit of rotation and repetition, in less than 30 seconds, the flywheel, which used to rotate once in half a day, can reach a speed of one or even two revolutions per second under the drive of the piston.
