Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 4 Chapter 19: Pre-industrial

   At the end of Seventh Apocalypse, it has been nearly half a year since it acquired steam engine technology.

  The chaos in the territories outside Shanhaiguan Pass is an initial success, and domestic steam engines have also been manufactured.

On November 30th, under the leadership of Yang Song, the ministers visited the opening ceremony of the first steam engine. They watched the black-smoke machine, which rumblingly started to spin up, and brought a pump next to it to take the water from the river. It is extracted from the river and flows into the ditches on the other side.

   Under the leadership of Song Yang, there was thunderous applause on the spot, and Xia Guo was welcomed into the steam age!

   After nearly half a year of preparation, all management preparations have been completely completed.

  For example, the Bureau of Agriculture wants to increase the planting area of ​​Xia Guo's cotton and linen and increase the number of sheep and other wool-producing livestock to meet the future demand for raw materials from textile factories.

   Another example is the use of violent mineral mining, the use of explosives to blast the veins, and increase the output of various minerals, the most important of which are iron ore and coal mines.

   In addition, the foreign trade of Guihua City also uses minerals as the main imported goods. Even Yang Song asked Nanshanling that minerals can be used to repay debts.

"My lord, at the end of this year, the country's population has exceeded 1.5 million. The preliminary industrialization preparations have been completed. Minerals, cotton, linen, and wool have a large reserve of raw materials." Xun Yu looked at the machine in front of him under the burning of coal. , Rumbling and running, while reporting briefly to Yang Song about the preparations of the administrative office.

Yang Song looked at the river flowing continuously from the water pipe, nodded and said: "Very well, Wen Ruo, Xia Guo’s change of this time, the most onerous task belongs to your administrative office, remember to slow down and it doesn’t matter, but Don't go wrong."

   "The minister would like to obey the king's instructions." Xun Yu bowed his hand and said: "Please rest assured, the minister has been preparing for this time for half a year, and all the plans have been gathered to ensure that everything goes smoothly."

   Yang Song looked at Xun Yu's confident face, and patted his chest as promised, but he was relieved. It was impossible to say that he was not worried at all, but it was precisely because of these great talents that he could let go.

   "Li Jie, how is the expansion of the Apocalypse City and the construction of the factory outside the city going on?" Yang Song asked Li Jie, the master architect in the group.

"Enjoy the Lord! According to the Lord’s request, the expansion of Apocalypse City is planned on the scale of one million people. The first phase of the project is to expand the residential area of ​​100,000 people outside the West City. The road has been completed. With the underground pipe network, the subsequent above-ground facilities are under construction."

  The expansion of the new urban area was carried out completely in accordance with the original plan of Tianqi City, including the three-dimensional system of main roads and underground pipe networks, road planning, building layout...

   Seeing that Yang Songna was fairly satisfied, Li Jie continued to report: “The construction of the new textile factory between Lincai Town and Tianqi City has already been carried out for the most part, and the rest of the factories are also under planning.”

Although Lincai Town belongs to Huinan County, it is only more than 20 kilometers away from Tianqi City. During the discussion between Yang Song and the ministers, he decided to connect the two places with a light factory to facilitate the people of Tianqi City and Lincai Town as factories. Provide labor.

   In fact, Yang Song encouraged the private sector to set up factories, but that's the case. Private capital is still not enough. In the face of new policies, it is impossible to grasp it in time. Even with low-interest loans from banks, not many people are willing to take loans.

Therefore, the government had to take the lead in establishing state-owned enterprises. The management of these state-owned enterprises was all carried out by Yang Zhong’s Ministry of Internal Affairs. With the increase in state assets, Yang Zhong’s power would increase. Fortunately, many decisions must be made. It was made by Yang Song's approval.

   Not all people are unwilling to take risks. Some people, under the propaganda of the government, have boldly loaned to establish various enterprises, and they are developing towards a prosperous side.

   Yang Song believes that as long as the first group of people who eat crabs succeed, the private enterprises that follow will increase rapidly, but now they still need the guidance of the government.

   After the kick-off ceremony, the group returned to the Yeejeong Hall and continued to discuss political affairs.

   "Enlighten you! With the establishment of the factory and the growth of the people, the minister suggested to continue to expand the new area." Liu Ji first suggested.

"The minister agrees!" Xun Yu continued: "There are about one million people in the south of Tianhou Pass, and about 500,000 people in the Linhai Basin. The four-ling counties in the Linhai Basin have reached the expected scale and can continue to develop new ones. soil of."

   Yang Song thought about the words of the two of them, and nodded gently and agreed: "The country's land development direction is still in the Linhai Basin. If this is the case, then the Linhai Basin will be developed all at once."

   then confronted Xun Yu and asked: "How many more counties can be built in Linhai Basin on the scale of the four-collar counties?"

"Enjoy the Lord! The area of ​​the four-collar counties is 50,000 square kilometers. According to this calculation, there are three more counties in the Linhai Basin." After Xun Yu answered, he thought about what Yang Song said. : "If there are so many residential areas comprehensively built, Xia Guo's existing construction engineering enterprises may not be enough."

Yang Song secretly calculated that the four territories now have a population of 500,000, and if three counties of 500,000 are built, there will be two million people in the Linhai Basin, which is more than the population of the entire country of Xia now. Listening to Xun Yu's euphemistic refusal, Yang Song also thought he was a bit hasty.

   "Well, let's first expand a county around Linhai Town." Yang Song calmed down and steadily developed Xia Guo.

   Xun Yu heard that Yang Song was no longer aggressive, and immediately replied: "You are wise!"

   After a discussion, it was finally decided that two new towns should be built around Linhai Town. The one next to the river to the south is called Laihe Town, and the original Yugengling Castle to the west is to add a new Gengdao Town.

   A county was established from these three towns. The name of the county has the name of Linhai Town, which is called Linhai County.

  ……

   In early March of the eighth year of Tianqi, the steam engine production plant was completed and started production.

   There are only two kinds of steam engines that can be produced at present, one is the steam engine that provides power for mining, agriculture, construction and other industries; the other is the steam engine that is used as the power source of various factories.

   The first batch of steam engines are mostly the first type of steam engine, and the second batch is the second type of steam engine. After all, the supply of raw materials is very important.

   The next month, the machine production factory was established and put into production. This factory has steam-powered presses, steam-powered lathes and other equipment, which can produce many kinds of machinery and equipment.

   such as pumps, simple rails, mine carts. It can also produce a variety of production equipment, such as very important drilling machine tools!

  The lathe that produces the lathe is also called the industrial master machine. This is the source of a country's industrial development and the heart of the industry.

The first industrial master machine was made by hand by many professionals~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Of course, the accuracy is certainly not comparable to the world where Yang Song used to be. It is no longer possible to control the error at the millimeter level. Achieved.

   But as long as this industrial base machine is available, the accuracy of the industrial base machine produced in the future will be more and more accurate. As long as it is accurate to two decimal places in millimeters, it can enter the popularization stage.

  This gradual accuracy process is very fast. As long as it is repeatedly polished and optimized, it will not take long for an ordinary machine tool to be accurate to 0.1 mm.

   The quality of machined products can be divided into four types: ordinary processing, precision processing, high-precision processing and ultra-precision processing in terms of processing accuracy. The precision of ordinary machining is 10~100um, the precision of precision machining is 3~10um, the precision of high-precision machining is 0.1~3um, and the precision of ultra-precision machining is required to be higher than 0.1um.

   With Xia Guo’s existing technology, it is not a problem to reach the ordinary processing level, but it is very difficult to continue to improve the progress, unless the technology advances by leaps and bounds again.

   Of course, this is just thinking about it. Even if the system rewards higher-level technology, it cannot be applied with the current level of Xia Guo's technology.

  Technology is closely related to industry, and complementation between the two is a normal and good state of development.
