Chapter 494: What? Boiling water?

Soon, Shi Kefa came to Heyang County.

Heyang County ordered Feng Jun to come out of the city, and the two sides met with a salute, and the first sentence of Shi Kefa's face was to ask: "What is the price of grain here?" ”

Feng Jun was stiff when asked, but immediately reacted and replied: "Eighty dollars a bucket." ”

Shi Kefa: "Sure enough, is it eighty?" This price is already the same as in ordinary years. Food production has tripled, but the price of food has not plummeted, as in normal years, precisely because of the outward movement and the large number of refugees, right? ”

Feng Jun was split to cover his face and came to the phone like this, and he was a little frightened in his heart, and secretly thought: This pusher from Xi'an, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was already suspicious of me? Oops, terrible, I've been fooling my superiors and subordinates until now, if the court is suspicious and sends troops to suppress it, I will ...... Ah, don't panic! Don't panic! My family members have all taken it over, and it's a big deal to hide behind Tianzun's golden hand.

Shi Kefa: "Lord Feng? Why did you get a nosebleed? ”

Feng Jun stretched out his hand and wiped it, brushed it, and wiped the nosebleed cleanly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to have a little problem with the official since childhood." ”

The two were chatting here, when the whistle sounded, and a huge iron car, which was eaten by the mine, came to the gate of Heyang County.

Shi Kefa was taken aback: "What is it?" ”

Feng Jun: "That's the small train from Gaojia Village in Chengcheng County to Heyang County, you came in real time, this train just opened yesterday." Heck, it's not easy to get this track between our two places. Tens of thousands of migrant workers were dispatched to build it desperately for several months. ”

Shi Kefa looked confused, he couldn't understand what train, what tracks.

Feng Jun: "Do you want to send these more than 30,000 old and weak women and children from Heyang County to Gaojia Village?" More than forty miles away, it is not very far, they can walk through, but Master Shi might as well walk less, take the train over, and also pick out a thousand people with poor physique and walking very slowly from the old and weak women and children to take the train over, lest they drag the back of the large team. ”

Shi Kefa: "What? Can you transport a thousand people at a time? This...... Could it be the immortal chariot given by Tianzun? ”

Feng Jun heard the word Tianzun spit out from his mouth, but his heart was relieved, it turns out that you also know Tianzun? I'm still afraid that you'll treat me as a White Lotus Demon after you know it, and since you know it, then I'm even more afraid.

He perked up: "In the past, Tianzun gave an immortal car, and the immortal chariot could run 240 miles in an hour. But later, Bai Gongzi of Gaojia Village researched a steam train, and we mortals can also build it, but the steam train made by mortals is a little slower than the fairy car, and it can only run 60 miles in an hour, and it takes more than half an hour to run from here to Gaojia Village. ”

Shi Kefa's surprise is not small, a car carrying a thousand people, running sixty miles in an hour, what kind of terrible strange thing is this? It's not actually given by the gods, but can be made by mortals?

"This thing, this official should try it." Shi Kefa's spirit perked up: "In this way, this official will go to Gaojia Village with the first train, and then select a thousand old and weak women and children who walk the slowest to take the car together, and the other 29,000 people, let my soldiers escort them over slowly." ”

Feng Jun gave up.

Soon, Scofa boarded the train.

This small train is the first steam train made by Bai Gongzi, which can only run at a speed of eight kilometers per hour, but after the test run, Bai Gongzi began to continuously optimize it, constantly improving the efficiency of the steam engine, as well as the transmission efficiency of the transmission shaft, and now it can run at a speed of fifteen kilometers per hour.

And its railroad tracks, is also divided into several sections erected at the same time, one side from Gaojia Village to Heyang County repair, the other side from Heyang County to Gaojia Village repair, the two rails were only connected yesterday, just opened to traffic.

The process of building the railroad tracks made the blacksmiths of Gaojia Village realize what "standardization" is for the first time, because the rails must be standardized, and if one person hits it thick, one person can beat it thin, and it can't be put together.

So Song Yingxing took the smart craftsmen to unify the ruler, and the blacksmiths in Gaojia Village and all the blacksmiths in Heyang County pushed a ruler out and set it as a standard, called one meter, and then everyone used this standard to unify the construction of rails.

The "standardized" technical document sent by Tianzun last time was put into practical use, and the unit of measurement of one meter began to be used as a new unit of length in Gaojia Village and Heyang County, and all craftsmen, whether they were blacksmiths or carpenters...... are starting to adopt this standard to make things.

Standardization has led to an increase in all work efficiency.

The pace of production of rear-loading rifles began to increase all at once.

Of course, Shi Kefa didn't know about these things, he only knew that a thousand people crowded into this huge strange car, and then the strange car whined, and the mine ate the mine and drove away.

With such a big car and so many people, it can really run, without oxen pulling or horse-pulling, only dragged by a big black cart.

Shi Kefa felt surprised and inexplicable, and at the same time, the habit of "spying on intelligence" given to him by the profession of Jin Yiwei also made him impatient, so he couldn't help but walk from the "passenger car" towards the locomotive in front.

He was a big official, and he was sitting in the first carriage at the front, so when he walked to the front of the carriage and opened the small door, he could see the locomotive.

The middle of the two carriages was hooked with a large iron hook, the speed of which was 15 kilometers, not fast, at this speed, he could completely cover it, so he was bold, jumped from the iron hook, jumped into the locomotive, opened the small door, and got into the locomotive.

As soon as he entered, he felt a wave of heat hit his face.

Two middle-aged men, bare-chested, were shoveling coal into a large furnace with shovels, sweating profusely, all covered in black, with only a pair of eyes shining.

Shi Kefa: "Huh? This car is running with coal? ”

The two coal workers wanted to get angry and angrily scolded this guy who "violated" into the carriage, but when they saw him wearing an official uniform, they didn't dare to scold, but just said together: "Non-staff are not allowed to enter the locomotive at will, it is dangerous here, get out quickly." ”

Shi Kefa: "The official will look at it twice, and then leave after looking at it twice." ”

The two coal workers couldn't help but laugh: "What's so nice about this?" This thing is to boil water, and then the water vapor rushes out and rushes on the machine, and the machine bracket drives the wheels to spin, it's as simple as that. ”

Shi Kefa: "What? What's that? Boiling water? ”

His eyes followed the pipes on the stove all the way, no, he couldn't understand at all, what kind of terrible thing was this?
