In the next month, East Africa began to give full play to the role of the Far East Assistance Mission, making people willing to do things to know how to lure, the East African Kingdom can offer a good price, in addition to the basic living security, at the same time a very high salary, but all of them are the Rhine shield circulating within East Africa, East Africa makes money East Africa spends, don't want to take a dong home.

At the same time, these doctors were given East African titles, which were considered public families in the medical field, and the actions of the East African government, Li Ge and Ander could only stare dryly, and there was nothing they could do.

Under the strong pull of East Africa, there are indeed many people who are excited, but most people still want to return to the Far East, where the profession of doctors is a high-paying profession, and it is not bad, and most of the doctors in the Far East are relatively talented and learned, and the idea of landing back to the roots is also stronger.

East Africa understands this, but it doesn't matter, there will always be a steady stream of Far Easterners coming to the Kingdom of East Africa to fill these gaps, until one day East African medicine is thoroughly developed.

……

September 13, 1871.

King Constantine visited the city of Dar es Salaam, which has been under increasing pressure on transportation over the years.

So three years ago, before the city of Dar es Salaam was renovated, East Africa opened a new port seven kilometres southeast of the original port to share the pressure on the old port.

The new port is mainly used for the import and export of bulk commodities in East Africa, immigration, important import equipment, etc., while the old port is mainly used to receive foreign ships that need to dock in Dar es Salaam.

This is also the reason why the Dar es Salaam Migration Transition Point has been transferred from the urban area of Dar es Salaam City to the southern suburbs of the city, and it is more convenient for migrants to travel to the migration transition point after landing in the new port of Dar es Salaam, while facilitating management.

In the past, after immigrants landed in Dar es Salaam, they were mixed with the residential areas in the city, and the temporary residence was also limited by the old city, one in the east and one in the west, which was inconvenient to manage, and also affected the city's appearance, which was not conducive to the happiness of consumers in the past.

The immigrants themselves have been on the ship for a long time, and most of them are from poor backgrounds, so their manners and makeup can be imagined to be unpopular when they landed in East Africa.

Although the consumers in Dar es Salaam are also perennial drifters at sea, and their image is not very good, who makes the family have money in their hands! He can go months without bathing, washing, and his clothes are covered in pulp, but he is lenient and strict with others, and he just can't see the unkempt appearance of immigrants. Therefore, the excellent cityscape helped the East African kingdom to empty the wallets of foreign sailors.

Of course, it can also be seen from the function of the new port that it can be used to cover up some development data of the East African Kingdom, the urban area of Dar es Salaam is mixed, and businessmen from all over the world gather, who knows if there are any "people with hearts" among them.

Today, Konstantin personally arrived at the new port of Dar es Salaam to attend the opening ceremony of the first railway in East Africa.

Just three days ago, a steam-powered locomotive built by Haeichengen Vienna Energy Power and the Royal Austrian Railways arrived in East Africa, along with six cars, one passenger and five freight cars.

It took two days to transport the big guy from the dock to the station, and the Dar es Salaam city railway station was built on the outskirts of Dar es Salaam, three kilometers southwest of Dar es Salaam, and in order to get the big guy to the station, the East African railway workers repeatedly reinforced the roads along the way.

The Dar es Salaam train station looks very simple, except for the platform and signs, there is only a small bungalow covering more than 30 square meters.

Technicians from Vienna Energy Power in Heisingen introduce Konstantin to the first train in East Africa on the platform.

"Your Majesty, this train was jointly designed and built by the Vienna Energy Power Company of Hashingen and the Franz-Emperor Railway Company of Austria, using many cutting-edge technologies of the current era, after half a year of technical verification, assembled by skilled locomotive production workers in Austria, and then carried out a three-month test run in Austria after leaving the factory, which can fully meet the current needs of East Africa, and at the same time, under the instructions of His Royal Highness Ernst, this train is named after you, numbered K-001."

Konstantin asked: "If it is in the mountains, will it still be functional?" The gap between the East African plateau and the coastal plain is still relatively large. ”

"Your Majesty, this locomotive has done quite a lot of experiments in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, our team has specially built an experimental track in the Alps, its speed and climbing ability have reached the world average, and we also have data on the geographical conditions of East Africa, the difficulty is far less than that of Austria, Austria is a mountainous country, so there are many mountain railways built in the past two years, and although the altitude of the East African plateau is also very high, there are many places from the plateau to the plain where the transition is gentle, and the overall slope is much lower."

There is still some difference between plateaus and mountains, Africa is a plateau continent, it is the highest of all continents, and this geological structure is not conducive to the movement of the earth's crust and forms mountains. The corresponding topography of East Africa is also dominated by gentle plateaus, lacking tall mountain ranges.

Therefore, East Africa does not have the abrupt geological structure like the Brazilian coastal shield to block traffic, and the East African coastal plain, according to the official East African term, is a plain, in fact, only the area close to the coastline is below 200 meters above sea level, and most of the middle area transitions from 200 meters to 1000 meters, and when it reaches the edge of the East African plateau, the difference in altitude between the two is not large.

Because the altitude of the East African highlands is between 1,000 and 2,000 meters, and the average altitude is about 1,200 meters, and the 5,800-plus meters of mountains like Kilimanjaro are mainly affected by the Great Rift Valley.

Caused by volcanic activity in nature, it began about 750,000 years ago and originally consisted of three large craters: Sheila, Kibo and Mavents.

There are many volcanoes in East Africa, but most of them have passed the active period, mainly extinct volcanoes and dormant volcanoes, and although the volcanic seismic zone caused by the Great Rift Valley is huge, it is completely pediatric compared to the Pacific Rim volcanic seismic zone.

The incidence of earthquakes and volcanoes in East Africa is not even comparable to that of Italy, at least Ernst had never heard of any major volcanic and seismic events in Africa in his previous life, earthquakes often occur, but they are not too strong, and most of them do not exceed 6 magnitude.

Ernst remembers an earthquake near Lake Tanganyika in Africa, when the United States measured a magnitude of 6.8 and France measured a magnitude of 7.5, and the damage caused was negligible or none, except for single-digit casualties.

Generally speaking, except for the area near the Great Rift Valley, East Africa does not have to worry too much about the occurrence of natural disasters such as volcanic earthquakes, and the geological conditions are generally stable, but more factors such as heavy rain and floods should be considered when building railways.

In addition, East Africa is vast and sparsely populated, and areas that are not conducive to railway construction can be bypassed, so it is not too difficult.
