Chapter 800 Hydraulic and Railways

When Yang Jinghua saw Sun Yuanhua again, he was very surprised. He could hardly recognize Sun Yuanhua's appearance. According to Yang Jinghua's words, he was deformed.

Black, thin, tired, haggard, tired, mixed with the excited light flashing in the eyes, it really makes people wonder how to describe the person in front of you.

"Why does the Qing family look like this?" Yang Jie asked in surprise.

Not only Yang Jing was surprised, but even Wang Chengen, who was beside him, was surprised.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have nothing to do, I just slept less, it's not a problem..." Sun Yuanhua said in his haggard appearance, but in his words, he was tired and excited.

"I haven't seen you for a few days? The Qing family is like this and she said it's okay. If this continues, if it's not done with the human world, the Qing family will probably become skinny. People who don't know think that I'm abused the Qing family. How can this be done?" Yang Jingjie said. Yang Jingjie really didn't expect that Sun Yuanhua would actually be like this, with great discoloration and great pressure, but it wouldn't be so.

"...Your Majesty, it's really okay. It's just that I've slept less recently, so I'm just looking like this. It's just a few days to keep it..." Sun Yuanhua continued to say with haggard, tired and excited words. His dark circles and red blood mean that he was afraid he hadn't had a good sleep for several days.

Yang Jing was speechless. Looking back on the homework that Sun Yuanhua has been handing over to himself in recent days, Yang Jing has already understood a little bit, which is probably stressful. Using concrete to build such a large dam is definitely a big project nowadays. Faced with the unknown and the possible consequences, how can ordinary people understand the difficulties and pressure of the host? Building this dam is not only to start hydraulic power as an industrial power, but also to verify the technology for the people's world. The pressure faced is not only to

A dam is so simple. If the human world is not repaired, even Yang Jing dares not think about the consequences. He is afraid that he can only make the worst plan and issue a self-destruction. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the process of industrialization. Yang Jing's plan to nail a pile in the spiritual world with high hopes will completely fail. Industrialization in the Ming Dynasty will have huge variables. Yang Jing's own pressure is also huge. Naturally, he has to pass these pressures to specific executors. Unexpectedly, he has to press Sun Yuanhua into this.

"...Oh, the Qing family should not work so hard, I can't afford to lose..." Yang Jingai said in an exclaim.

"...Your Majesty, it doesn't matter. I'll just keep it for a few days..." Sun Yuanhua said indifferently.

A silence.

It is indeed not that simple to engage in scientific research and technology. Yang Jing once again felt deeply.

"...I heard that the dam has been almost completed..." Yang Jie asked with the important things aside.

Sun Yuanhua was stunned and then replied: "...Report to Your Majesty, yes, it has been almost done..., including the dam itself, the water diversion channel and drainage channel of the cement plant, and the corresponding iron plant, coal yard and ash factory, they have been almost done..., Your Majesty, the place in Xishan, iron, coal, lime, and water are all gathered together, and they are close to the capital, which is indeed more suitable than in Tianjin..."

"...Well, yes, I know that Xishan is suitable, so I will do it here first. Don't stop there in Tianjin. Wuding River has only so much water and is unstable. Xishan is afraid it is also limited. I am afraid that I will find other places in the future and think of other ways..." Yang Jinghui knew what Sun Yuanhua said. The concentration of raw materials, hydraulic power and distribution sites in Xishan are all gathered in one place. It is considered a rare heavy industrial base, but it also has certain limitations. In the era of limited hydraulic power, it is necessary to provoke a heavy industrial base to provoke a heavy industrial base.

The burden is still a bit difficult. Of course, before there is a stable source of power, this place is indeed better than that in Tianjin. It is enough as a base for heavy industry enlightenment. However, if it comes to the steam engine era and when more, larger, and more stable power is needed, the one here may not be suitable for heavy industry bases. Just say that pollution is not enough for senior officials in Beijing. Of course, in Yang Jing's eyes, in the "photo pictures" sent by Sun Yuanhua, the towering chimneys and the thick smoke coming out of the sky are all Yang Jing's favorites.

"...Report to Your Majesty, I understand..." Sun Yuanhua said that hydraulic power replaces human and animal power, which does have huge advantages. There is no doubt that cement is made of requires a lot of power to grind, crush raw materials and clinker. There is no stable and continuous and cheap power. The output of this cement will definitely not be increased, and the price will undoubtedly not be reduced. If it cannot be reduced, it will be unfavorable for promotion.

After a little silence, Yang Jingdiao found the drawings of the dam. Yang Jingdiao was in the Forbidden City and could not go out. For intuitive needs, he also had these intuitive "photo" drawings. According to Yang Jingdiao's requirements, the only requirement of this photo drawing is "photo". It is painted like what it actually looks like. For the emperor who can use national resources, this requirement is not excessive. It is more reasonable than the emperor who goes to Xishan to see himself, and it also sets off a "photo style" in the capital.

"... Xishan really has an advantage over Tianjin..." Yang Jie looked at the "photo" drawings for a long time and said, "I have to say that the dam is almost completed and the cement factory is built, and the power source is relatively stable, Xishan's advantages are revealed. After all, Tianjin is still too far. The three hundred miles away is still a big number for the Ming Dynasty today, and its productivity is not enough.

"...Report to Your Majesty, yes, after the dam is built, the clinker is almost effortless to crush raw materials, which is much more cost-effective than before. The output of this cement suddenly increased and the price has also dropped. With the cement produced in Xishan, I am sure to talk about cultivating people's altars. Otherwise, I would not be sure of grinding the cement from cultivating people's altars by relying on manpower and animal power to grind the cement from cultivating people's altars..." Sun Yuanhua said, his eyes were tired and haggard, and excited.

Yang Jing was silent again, and the topic was touching the world again. For the Ming Dynasty today, the world can be called a super project in super project. The difficulties encountered by ordinary people are unimaginable. Sun Yuanhua's torture was also caused by pressure, and Yang Jing was under a lot of pressure.

"...But your Majesty..." Sun Yuanhua said hesitantly again.

"What's the matter?" Yang Jingai was thinking about his own affairs. When he saw Sun Yuanhua ask, he asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, not only cement plants need hydraulic power now, but this steel plant also needs hydraulic power. If it is hammered, drilled, and forged objects with hydraulic power, it can do things that humans cannot do. Many objects must be done with such continuous and huge force... Therefore... Your Majesty, I am afraid that the hydraulic power is not enough..." Sun Yuanhua said hesitantly.

Yang Jing was speechless. He was just talking about using Xishan as a heavy industrial base, and the dam was about to be repaired, but he immediately encountered insufficient hydraulic power... The demand for power immediately encountered a bottleneck.

"...What does Qing family mean? Is this dam repaired smaller?" Yang Jing was speechless for a while. The first time he did such a thing, he was indeed inexperienced. Yang Jing could understand such a thing.

"...Report to Your Majesty, I don't mean this. I mean, if this continues, I am afraid that the water in Wuding River will not be enough. Your Majesty, I don't know how many cement and steel needed in this man's altar are. If the cement from Xishan only meets the needs of this man's altar, it will be enough. But Your Majesty, now that cement is selling well, I don't know how much it needs, I am afraid that the cement from Xishan Cement Factory will only meet external needs..." Sun Yuanhua said hesitantly. This matter was indeed unexpected. He was afraid that he would not be able to recover the money invested in it, and he would spend too much money.

He was criticized by someone. After the human altar was repaired, there was no place to go to the cement, but he did not expect that the cement had been promoted by the emperor one after another. Now the production capacity of his cement plant is not enough. It is not that he cannot produce so much cement, but that the hydraulic power is insufficient. He also wants to use hydraulic power to make steel, forge, to make larger objects, make cannons, and drill holes in guns and cannons. These require a lot of water. After calculation, Sun Yuanhua found that his budgeted hydraulic power was probably not enough, and the water in Wuding River was not so stable, and it surged and plummeted.

Yang Jing was also irritated. There was no way to use hydraulic power, and it was not good to use it. There was no stable and sufficient source of power. It could only allow the needs and industries to meet natural conditions, but could not escape the natural conditions and was too restricted by natural conditions.

"...what can the Qing family have any solutions?" Yang Jinge asked.

A little silence.

Sun Yuanhua mustered up the courage and said, "...I believe that you can raise the dam... to store more water. When it comes to dry water and low water season, you can store water at night and start construction during the day. In this way, you can get more water..."

Sun Yuanhua said hesitantly that he would raise the dam as the original plan. If something went wrong, the downstream would be a country that might even affect the capital. The nearest capital was full of industries from the families of high-ranking officials and prominent people. The losses and pressure were not ordinary...

Yang Jing now understands why Sun Yuanhua looks like this. He feels like this guy is doing this! If he temporarily raised the height of the dam in later generations, he would probably have to be a gun. Of course, everything is still being created now, and there are no systematic construction methods and standards. Whether it can be done or not depends on the decision-makers.

Yang Jie looked at Sun Yuanhua in shock.

"...The Qing family's idea...can it work? How high does the Qing family want to increase it?" Now it's Yang Jing's turn. This is a dam. It's not done according to the design and construction plan. It's raised there with a sense of perceptual understanding. How does Yang Jing feel? It's like the land at the urban-rural fringe is about to be expropriated, and each household is releasing its own floors. Thinking of an ordinary two-story brick building that was raised into a five or six-story building, Yang Jing was frightened. If the floor collapses, no, if the dam collapses, the consequences..., it will take only one or two years to deal with the expropriation, but this dam has been decades!

"...Report to Your Majesty, I want to increase my height by three feet..." Sun Yuanhua said hesitantly.

"...three feet?..." Yang Jing was dazzled. The total height of the dam base was less than two feet above. Now, three feet are added directly. This project is really a sensory project. Do whatever you want. It does not meet the construction requirements of architectural science at all.

"Report to Your Majesty, yes, three feet. I think that if you increase three feet, the water stored can be greatly increased, and it may meet the requirements of hydraulic power. Otherwise, in the dry season, the cement plant and the iron plant will probably stop working for months..." Speaking of this, Sun Yuanhua became serious and persistent, with his eyes full of confidence, which squeezed down his fatigue and haggard face.

"...Is this okay? The foundation has been laid, and it has been lifted now? There will be no problem? If the dam is broken, can the Qing family think about the risks?" Yang Jing asked with some stinginess. Yang Jing was not familiar with engineering construction, but he also knew how serious the risks brought by arbitrarily increasing the construction.

"...Reporting to Your Majesty, it should be feasible. The base was dug two feet long, which is actually strong enough. Adding a three-foot high on it should not be a big deal. Just change the slope slightly during the repair..." Sun Yuanhua said.

Yang Jie's mind was in a mess. What he should have said and wanted to say was disrupted by Sun Yuanhua. Who would have expected that the hydraulic power would not be enough?

Due to the later generations' understanding of architectural knowledge, Yang Jingwei was very hesitant. In this era when everything was invented, in this era without engineers, Yang Jingwei really couldn't make up his mind.

"...Your Majesty, it's actually okay to increase the height of the three feet. There are steel bars as a bone, cement pavement, and it's solid. Besides, there is also a flood discharge channel. Just widen the flood discharge channel and increase the flood discharge channel. If this high dam is really not good, just open the gate of the flood discharge channel and let the flood discharge channel increase the flood discharge channel. It won't be like a dam. Your Majesty, this dam made of steel bars and iron bones is not that bad..." Sun Yuanhua tried hard to persuade. Recently, he has been suffering about this matter. Should he raise it? If it doesn't increase it, it is safest and he is most sure, but the hydraulic power is not enough. Whether it is an iron plant or a cement plant, it can't be separated.

As the emperor said, Wuding River is only so big, with so much water, and it has too much limitation. Now cement is so popular, and I don’t know how many orders to buy cement have been placed. Every household is going to take this back to build the ground. The hydraulic power is not enough at once. The cement plant alone is not enough, let alone the iron plant. Sun Yuanhua also tried his best to do it. The only simple and feasible thing is this method. Increase the height of the dam, store more water, and obtain more water. As for the danger and consequences, Sun Yuanhua, who had suffered for several days, finally made up his mind to increase it. Sun Yuanhua only had more than 100 kilograms. Those people wanted to eat it, and he was willing to sacrifice it.

"... Are you sure about the Qing family?" Yang Jing's mind was messy. This made it happen... without an engineer giving him an idea, Yang Jing's heart was really unsure.

"Report to Your Majesty, I am willing to do all the consequences..." Sun Yuanhua said without fear at all. Obviously, so many days of suffering were almost made him make up his mind.

"...Okay! Then follow the Qing family, increase it if you raise it..." Yang Jie also gritted his teeth and agreed. Since he chose Sun Yuanhua to do this, then believe him. Since there is not enough water, he has to raise it. If it really doesn't work, he will knock out the extra three feet.

"I received the order! Your Majesty, don't worry, this is absolutely feasible..." Sun Yuanhua said with a certain attitude. Sun Yuanhua breathed a sigh of relief and increased the three feet. The water volume and hydraulic power were greatly increased. The water allocated to the iron plant and the cement plant was enough. Otherwise, the hydraulic power required for the cement plant to produce cement would be enough. Of course, this can only maintain a certain level of production. If the production capacity is still increased, this amount of water is probably not enough.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Since the Qing family is so sure, I believe the Qing family. There is another thing. I want to talk to the Qing family..." Yang Jinge said, after calming down his irritable mood.

"Your Majesty also asks you..." Sun Yuanhua's eyes were obviously fatigued and occupied more space. The original light was much less. It can be seen that Sun Yuanhua was extremely tired.

"I see that Xishan, steel plants, coal yards, cement plants, and ash plants are all gathered in one place. What methods can you think of to save more manpower, animal power, save more costs? Reduce the cost?" Yang Jingling clarified his thinking, put aside the others, and specifically talked about his own affairs. Yang Jingling was preparing to build a "rail track road" in this new hydraulic heavy industry enlightenment base to lay the foundation for future railways. This new industrial base integrates coal mines, iron ore, lime, marble, hydraulic and other resources, and is indeed an extremely good heavy industry enlightenment base.

Sun Yuanhua was confused for a while.

"Report to Your Majesty, I am not understanding. Please tell me..." Sun Yuanhua said.

"The iron ore you dug has to be transported from the mine pit to the iron plant, the limestone has to be transported from the mountain to the cement plant, and then grind it, and the coal has to be transported from the coal mine to the iron plant and the cement plant. If you don't want to be too light, have a larger load, and have a simpler way, how can this cost be reduced?" Yang Jingwei said.

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable..." Sun Yuanhua said in confusion.

"...So, I have envisioned a simpler, larger and lighter delivery method, which is to connect these raw materials to the factory. In this way, after various raw materials come out of the pit mine, they can be sent directly to the factory. In this way, the cost can be greatly reduced..." Yang Jingwei said.

"...Your Majesty, the railway..., this..." Sun Yuanhua was confused and didn't understand at all. His mind was really not enough. He had been struggling with the matter of increasing the dam recently, making him very haggard. There was still energy to think about these things?

"... Let's put it this way, laying the rails on the ground and then installing the wheels of the car on the rails. This way, there are many advantages, such as large load capacity, lighter, simpler, and more durable..." Yang Jingyou explained.

"...Your Majesty, I..." Sun Yuanhua was still confused, not sure if he was too tired or could not understand this matter at all.

"...Well, let's say that, the Qing family has thought about how much steel and cement needed to build a man's altar? These have to be transported from Xishan. From Xishan to this side, it is about forty miles. If there is no cheap transportation method, how much can it be transported by carriages over the years? When will it be transported? How high is this cost? A carriage can be transported back and forth in a day. How high is this transportation cost? Also, the construction of this man's altar must require a large amount of marble and white marble. There is only Xishan, and there is Fangshan.

Yes, this marble and white marble must be large. If it is used for a carriage, it is inconvenient and easy to be damaged. If it can be transported in such a large load, can be transported day and night, and has a relatively stable method, wouldn’t it be better... Besides, the coal in this capital must be transported by the Xishan Mountain? If there is such a railway, can the price of this coal be reduced? Will there be more people who can afford coal? Can ordinary people suffer less freezing in winter?..." Yang Jing immediately expressed his ideas.

Sun Yuanhua looked at the emperor in confusion and shock. The railway? The road that paved the iron on the ground? A railway from the west mountain to the capital?

"...Well, the railway between several factories in the west mountain is a pilot project. It is used to accumulate some experience first. Once you have experience, you will build the railway from Xishan to Beijing. Qing family... Time is too late, and the construction of the Rentan is about to be imminent. Qing family should have planned the construction of Rentan! Don't temporarily raise the dam..." Yang Jing finished speaking and added another sentence. Rentan can indeed be called the Apollo plan of the Ming Dynasty, linking the construction of railways with Rentan. The necessity of the railway was immediately presented. Of course, this cannot be called a railway, it can only be said to be a railway.

After hearing the emperor's explanation, Sun Yuanhua was shocked and even more anxious. The cultivation of the human world!... The emperor was right. The construction of the human world is about to be built, but he was not ready yet. Today he was thinking about increasing the dam. Wouldn't he think about lowering the height of the human world in the future? Indeed, he had to plan better everything in building the human world. He had to prepare everything, only the east wind was needed, instead of thinking about doing this today, thinking about doing this tomorrow and doing that tomorrow. When it comes to cultivation of the human world, he would not give him a chance to start over. Although he didn't know what railway is, he was very yearning for this thing.

"... Please tell me..." Sun Yuanhua immediately said movedly, and the fatigue on his face disappeared without a trace, replaced by a solemn expression.

"...Young family, this is the railway sketch I drew... This is a sample of the railway tracks I made and the cars I ran on the railway tracks..." While showing the sketch to Sun Yuanhua, Yang Jing took out the railway tracks and small cars cast in sterling silver...

Sun Yuanhua was stunned.

"... The Qing family sees that the rails are triangular, just embedded with the wheels of the car. The four wheels of the car can easily roll on this rail, but it is much easier than on the flat ground. I think that a horse can pull an ordinary carriage on the flat ground. On this rail, it is probably possible to pull two carriages easily, and the horse can run longer. Isn't this save horsepower and manpower? Isn't the carrying capacity larger? With a carriage, it is not limited to running during the day, and maybe it can run at night. The track is fixed, and there is no fear of going off the direction..." Yang Jie said.

Sun Yuanhua didn't listen to the emperor at all, and was staring blankly with a carriage and rails holding sterling silver.
