Chapter 401 The Mechanical Young Mansion is established! The Mo clan giant returns!
Just a single ship can transport 1,500 stone goods at a speed three or four times faster than normal ships.
What if ten or a hundred ships?
How fast should materials flow in Daqin?
Suddenly, Lao Zhao's heart moved slightly, looked at Su Yu and asked, "Su Yu, did you just say that there is a way of transportation on land.
"What's it called... what car?
"Train!" Su Yu reminded.
Old Zhao slapped his hand suddenly: "Yes, it's a train, is this thing very powerful?
Hearing Lao Zhao asked, Su Yu smiled.
Laugh very happily.
"How much more powerful is the train? It is a weapon that can change the state of the Qin Dynasty.
"It's just that the national power it has to invest is too huge, and it is not suitable for the current Da Qin. 35 Su Yu shook his head and sighed.
On the other hand, Li Si hurriedly asked, "How do you say it?"
Su Yu said slowly: "The train is very special. He uses a steam engine in the front to drive the carriages in the back, which is related to the relationship between horses and carriages. 39
Everyone nodded, and they understood.
"Because of its particularity, trains can only run on pre-laid rails, and the rails cannot have excessive arcs and slopes."
"Without mentioning how much steel is needed to lay the rails, it's a huge expense to excavate mountains and rivers and demolish villages because you have to travel in a straight line..."
Su Yu still remembers the extent to which the country's power was depleted due to the construction of railways during the Qing Dynasty.
In the end, the people's livelihood was grieved, and the treasury was still very empty.
The main thing is that the money ended up in the pockets of foreigners.
And now in Da Qin, although there is no need to worry about the outflow of money and birth.
But today's spending is simply too much.
The original project now has a wharf, a steam engine, and a new type of ship.
Moreover, the consumption of steel by the railway is really in conflict with the current situation in which Da Qin has to start refining weapons and equipment and prepare for the Eastern Expedition.
Hearing Su Yu's advice, Lao Zhao nodded.
Indeed, although this train is good, it is really not in line with the current situation of Daqin.
We can only wait until two years later.
After receiving Su Yu's advice and various tips about the steam engine, Lao Zhao and the others hurried back to the palace before they could eat.
There was also a big cow with him.
As for this steam engine, they originally wanted to find someone to take it away.
Naihe has just finished using it, and the machine has not cooled down, making it difficult to carry.
You can only wait for a while for the machine to cool down and be transported away.
After returning, the crowd began to divide into four groups.
Li Si searches for a suitable and reliable person to accept Su Yu's remaining two knowledge about steam engines.
Feng Quji looked for a businessman who was close to Xianyang Palace, easy to control, and strong.
Meng Yi used the newspaper again to recruit Qin Mozhi from the world to return, and was responsible for the research and development of power structures that could be applied to steam engines.
Zhang Liang personally drafted the draft, describing the steam engine as a machine that can generate power, and asked the world how such a machine could be used.
Today's Lao Zhao and others have tasted the sweetness of the power of the common people.
Not to mention anything else, just the plough invented by a farmer named Liu He in Yingchuan County some time ago.
They are absolutely no less effective farming tools than the curved plough.
And this is the wisdom from farmers.
Although it is said that one or two farmers can't think of any good ideas.
But once the population is large and the base is large, the idea will naturally come.
The emergence of the steam engine injected a new vitality into Daqin
A new mechanical house was established to be responsible for the manufacture and installation of steam engines, as well as the mechanical structures that could be applied to them.
It is different from the rest of the other Shaofu who have set up two chiefs.
Because of the influence of Su Yu, the Mechanical Shaofu has set up three chiefs, including Daniel.
And the scale is unprecedented.
Even comparable to the smallest Jiang Zuo Shaofu two sizes.
On the surface, the people seem to be calm, but in fact they are turbulent.
The big businessmen who have risen in the recent period in various places, as well as the remaining forces of the older generation, have begun to compete for the parts production tasks issued by the Xianyang Palace.
The merchants of these monkey spirits know very well.
If anyone can win this, then there will definitely be a place in the smelting and forging industry of Daqin in the future!
As a result, the idle blacksmiths from all over the country have been attracted by merchants from all over the world to become their forces.
And began trial production of these metal parts that were made public.
Now, it is time to fight for the foundation and strength.
In fact, Su Yu is also very concerned about this competition.
Because no one knows better than him.
What does it mean to win this game?
Half a month passed quickly, and Xianyang Palace also received trial-made parts from merchants from all over Daqin.
And today is the time to reveal the results.
This time, in order to ensure the selection of the quality of the parts, without being interfered by all other factors, the blind (Zhao Li's) selection method was used, and the selection process was completely closed.
Only in Su Yu's courtyard.
For the selection of parts, there are only five people.
Su Yu, including Daniel, were three craftsmen who were enlightened by Su Yu with knowledge about steam engines, and a giant Qin Mo who was called back.
After returning to Xianyang, the man was called to Su Yu's house without stopping.
Although he is old, it is said that this is the residence of the immortal Daqin in rumors, and there are steel machines that can be driven by coal.
He didn't have a single complaint.
The legs are pounding faster than young people.
He even kept urging the soldiers who were escorting after getting up.
Looking at him, if he had wings on his body, he would probably have flown to Su Yu's house sooner rather than later.
