Chapter 563: Strength Is Not Strong Enough (1st Update)
'Boom~~Boom~~''Buzz ......'
Digging loaches and Yellow Mountain in winter, obviously you can't use trapping, people sleep!
Everyone used a steam excavator, driven by a large steam engine, and the soil was frozen, frozen like a sting, no better than the south of the Yangtze River.
The shovel of the excavator is smashed, and the craftsmen are not distressed when they look at it, the quality is not good, and then they will find a way.
The herdsmen came to watch, and the steam excavator was large, and it was shocking to look at.
Every time the fight came down, the herdsmen followed suit.
The soil was frozen hard, and there was snow and ice on it, but even then, under the force of the machinery, it was dug up.
When the permafrost layer is dug up to three feet thick in one place, the soil underneath is easy to dig.
Zhu Wentian looked at it and shook his head slightly, he was not satisfied with this excavator, the front teeth were slightly bent, and because they were cast iron, they were not broken, indicating that the hardness was not enough.
Moreover, the permafrost layer is too thick to be dug hard with an excavator, so it should be replaced with an iron pestle with a head and smashed with an iron pestle.
That is, the breaker, but the current technology does not support the continuous expansion and contraction of the hammer head, and it is necessary to use the weight to smash down.
Punch a hole, then blast it with explosives, and the excavator will be easy to get on again, especially digging foundations and trenches.
He made a few gestures to the chief, and the chief immediately stopped, and everyone looked at the teeth of the excavator together, and sure enough, it was bent.
"Go back and bake it with a blowtorch, and then smash it back." It's a pity that the craftsman in charge doesn't have to go back to the furnace.
Since the introduction of diesel blowtorches, many welding things have become simpler.
Of course, only diesel blowtorches can, gasoline blowtorches and kerosene blowtorches are not hot enough, they can be used to bake frozen iron or something.
Or it is to light the coal on the stove when there is no soft and hard wood, and spray the coal and ignite.
When the equipment was driven back, the herdsmen took turns to look at the big pits dug out by the excavator, and their eyes were shocked.
"Isn't it fast to dig wells in the grasslands where there is no water, dig in the summer, there is no frozen soil."
"How deep and big a hole will you have to dig, and then the big guy won't be able to come up."
"They had a well digging machine, and according to what they said, they drilled more than 20 feet deep in the desert and drilled the water out."
"We will not be short of water in the future, let them help drill more wells, let's mark them wells, and get water to eat when we get to the place."
"Their wells are different from ours, they are so thin that they can only go in with very thin buckets to carry water."
"What does it have to do with thickness, it's mainly a matter of whether there is water or not."
"Maybe they can dig thick wells, they're that powerful."
"Go back quickly, I said that I came to dig loaches and yellow eels, and it seems that I can't eat them."
"It's not delicious, it smells earthy, but the fish is delicious, ask them to help make some smoked fish."
"Go home for dinner, take care of your body, and wait for the time to move to help repair the fort, don't call back from Beiyuan."
"Yes, yes, repair the fort, Beiyuan will fight back, let's hide in the fort and fight with them, and smash down with stones."
The herdsmen went home one after another, and at this time they resolutely supported the Ming Dynasty for a better life.
……
"It seems that you have to wait for the soil to loosen before you can dig it, that big guy, you can dig out so much soil at once, dig with a shovel, and you have to work for half a day."
Zhu Fan gave up the method of digging eels and loaches with an excavator, and he was reluctant to eat these that Xiaqiu Village had finally obtained.
He knew that it was medicine, and after clearing the snow in Xiaqiu Village, he found a lot of herbs, some of which were dried and some of which were used.
There are also grasshoppers that are under the hay, and they are all collected.
And as soon as the team arrived, the horses, cattle and sheep that were sick with Lin Cheng were also cured.
The herdsmen also have people to teach, and the herdsmen understand all the things that the herdsmen understand, and the herdsmen don't understand, and the Xiaqiu village also understands.
Let's rest first, lunch is ready, and we eat together.
This time, the lieutenant chief knew about it and said to Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan: "Your Highness, as long as you want to dig, we can use drilling and blasting to blast the permafrost, and the soil below will be soft." ”
The lieutenant said that there is explosives, and even if there is no nitroglycerin, it can be made into black powder.
Nitroglycerin mainly lies in diatomaceous earth, nitroglycerin does not have diatomaceous earth, who dares to use it? That thing can explode at any moment.
Who says that black powder can't be blasted? It's not the black powder that wasn't in the same good proportions as before.
Beiyuan left a lot, made some fireworks, and a large part remained.
Zhu Biao came to the spirit: "According to this, we can find a place to start digging now, and when spring comes, there will be rain, and we can use reinforced concrete." ”
He wanted to build the fort as soon as possible, worried that the weather would be warm in Beiyuan, and he wanted to fight again, so it didn't matter if he fought hard.
If they harass herdsmen, rob them as slaves, or rob livestock, how can they prevent it?
When the earthen fort was built, Beiyuan didn't dare to detour at all, for fear that the back road would be blocked, as for the siege? Exhaust them.
When I go back, my son is over one year old, what gift do I have to bring him?
"Captain, do you think there are any treasures here? I want to bring it back to Xiongying. ”
Zhu Biao would not ask such a question if he was a different person, everyone came over at one time, why did they ask me?
Who let the team of Xiaqiu Village may have hidden masters? Hidden in the car? In which room are you hiding in now?
"This ......" was embarrassed, Han Han didn't say it, he asked in a low voice: "Placer gold doesn't count?" ”
"We don't lack the dog's head gold when you dig it out!" Zhu Fan has never regarded gold as a treasure.
"I'll think about it later." The lieutenant had no choice but to say so.
The two brothers glanced at each other and nodded in unison, yes, you ask!
After eating, the two of them left, and the chief looked at Hanhan: "What should I do Hanhan?" ”
"Think about it, baby? Jewel? What gems are here? It's all mines, and there are ...... mines Ah! Inside, there is salt, I know where there is salt.
From here to the northwest, over one mountain after another, about five hundred miles in a straight line, there is salt, rock salt.
It's uninhabited now, it's too desolate, there are crystals, there are tourmaline, and natural tourmaline with good color is a gemstone.
No one has a name yet, I call it tourmaline, and there is magnesium, gold, silver, copper, and it can also burn cement.
Yes, there is salt, we have salt to eat, send a team to dig and fry, I will draw a rough diagram, and you can find it by looking for more. ”
Zhu Wentian finally thought of a place in Houhangai Province, where the central city is Checheerleg, with a population of more than 10,000.
Now there is no one, a piece of nature.
If it weren't for the gems, he wouldn't have remembered! The place was famous because there were fewer tourmalines in other places, and everyone hit the idea to others.
Now it's just the right time to dig, with the current manpower, there is snow, see if the snowmobile is good or not, especially over the mountains.
As he spoke, he found a pen and paper, and drew while thinking, there were mountains there, and thanks to the country that was not well developed, the mountains basically didn't move much.
After moving today, I was tired from the farmer's house, and my whole body hurt. Tomorrow I have to clean up and return it to the landlord.
