[Group Wearing Song Dynasty] The Glory of the Sky

Zhao Gou has been passively waiting for news from various regions for a long time.

He got some good news and bad news from Yun Qi and everyone.

The bad news is that Jin Guo has already mastered new methods of steelmaking and glass making. I heard that the finished products are rough, but at least they have made progress.

Since Song State and Jin State signed a sugar trade agreement, a large amount of rock sugar began to be continuously imported to Song State, and used as currency to exchange food, cloth and other consumables.

Both sides are issuing copper ban orders. Song Guo consciously reduces the inflow of copper coins to Jin Guo in the trading market, but dare not withdraw directly at once, lest conflicts erupt and suffer disaster.

I don't know if it was Yunqi who gave the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin some advice, or they really stole something from Linguo. The Song Dynasty is still passively waiting to build a factory and workshop, but the Jinguo has already started to expand the production scale. Batch shrinking reserves of other food items to make wintering and marching a little easier.

The good news is that the Kingdom of Jin did not notice the movements of the Kingdom of Song and the Kingdom of Lin, because their main energy was spent on the expansion of small workshops and contact with Mongolia.

This is obviously conducive to Zhao Gou's respite and layout.

Zhao Gou was peaceful in the past because he had no offspring and no hope of defeating the Kingdom of Jin.

Now the Kingdom of Jin has been dragged away by Xixia and Mongols, and even half of the chariots are left there. This means that they have more time to recruit troops to develop the army, or to produce more armor. Weapons come out.

Although chariots are quite useful, there are only so many of them, and it is impossible to use them in every battlefield.

And in the past two years, the weapons of different grades that the Song Kingdom secretly imported from the neighboring country had already hoarded enough to deal with a war involving tens of thousands of people.

What he hopes is not just the ability to resist foreign enemies in the border defense, but to take back the entire north, and even obliterate the existence of Jin Guo.

To achieve all this, one must rely on the mysterious power of Linguo.

Adjacent country.

When Bai Lu came back from other places, he lost a lot of weight.

Indeed - from the outside inspection, the sleeping car can be regarded as a luxurious private room.

When they inspected the river dams in different areas, they not only almost killed all kinds of chickens, cattle and sheep, but also encountered a group of menacing bandits.

But those bandits had never seen a car that could honk, and it was a commercial vehicle, so they all knelt down.

——Afterwards, according to the guesses of people familiar with the matter, they probably thought it was a black ghost coffin that moved by itself, the kind that would glow and make sounds.

At present, the flood disaster will not submerge Yangzhou for the time being, nor will it spoil the crops mass-produced in the eastern agricultural garden. However, if we want to expand the site and expand the industrial area in the future, it is very likely that we will go to the northern states to build new areas. So flood control and dredging buildings still need to be taken care of.

As soon as Bai Lu came back, Liu Xi took him to inspect the functional divisions of Yangzhou City.

Liu Yuanshou's leg is almost healed now, but there is usually a folding wheelchair in the car, and whenever there is a critical pain, he can sit on his side for a while at any time.

Under the cooperation of the team led by Li Luan, the Ministry of Construction, which had only renovated a small town, carried out a thorough functional division of the entire Yangzhou city.

60.00% of the old residential buildings were demolished or relocated, new temporary housing that can accommodate 2 people was added, and 20% of the urban area of ​​Yangzhou was expanded again.

The entire eastern part is a key construction area. The upstream is agriculture, and the downstream is industry. The industrial waste containing heavy metals cannot be thoroughly purified, so all of them are stored or discharged after three times of filtration.

The old Yangzhou aristocrats of the old school have only a small building area left, and they continue to live and dream in the deep house compound, while the southeast and southeast have been transformed into densely populated residential areas, and housing of different qualities is constantly being expanded. Here It is also a key monitoring area for the fire department.

Half of the old city in the middle is reserved for business districts and half for government districts, and construction of many high-rise buildings is not considered for the time being.

In terms of city defense, because the city boundary is still uncertain, and the Senate intends to further expand the population area, only a part of the Iron Curtain in the east and north has been kept. kind of emergencies.

"Three machine tool plants, an oil refinery, a coking plant, and a steel and iron plant," Liu Zi counted with his fingers, "A factory for manufacturing military uniforms and food is not only opened in Yangzhou, but also in Changzhou." It's a joint venture—but they Song people all wear armor."

Bailu was so hungry that he ate steamed buns quietly all the way listening to him, the gentleness on his face was worn away by the intensity of work.

"There are four farms in total, and there are enough grain reserves and canned food." Bailu flipped through the documents handed by the secretary, carefully wiped off the scum from the corner of his mouth, and asked, "What about the news about the car manufacturing and ships?"

Yangzhou's light and heavy industries were largely bred by Jiangyin. Whether it is the provision of basic equipment, the guidance of old production methods, or the follow-up of senior technicians and managers, they are all "have" and "have". .

Now if you want to expand related industries and build your own cars, then you really have something out of nothing.

"I still can't make a suitable spark plug," Liu Xi said with a sigh, "Many parts are made according to the drawings, and they are messed up."

The main part of a car engine is the cylinder, and the cylinder block, piston and other components in the cylinder are relatively easy to solve. The main reason is that the selection of materials and the smelting of alloys need constant consideration.

And the spark plug is not only difficult to make, but also a consumable.

In the gasoline engine ignition system, high-voltage current is introduced into the cylinder to generate electric sparks, which are used to ignite the combustible mixture.

The manufacture of spark plugs not only needs to increase the calorific value to achieve a higher balance between heat absorption and heat dissipation, but also to adjust the gap and the material selection of the insulator skirt.

"According to the previous report from the Ministry of Industry, these are the problems we are currently encountering," Liu Xun rubbed his brows and said, "Braking system, refrigeration system, gas distribution system——Bailu, if we want to build cars, we must directly build them." Come out with a bunch of supporting industrial chains.”

He thought it was unlikely.

"Have all the functions been simplified?" Bailu asked, "Have all the irrelevant functions been deleted?"

"Everything has been deleted," Liu Xi affirmed, "The only vision now is to create a car that can be a human being and go on the road."

Bailu pushed down his glasses, glanced at the various parts that were highlighted in the document, and said for a while: "Let's not go to those factories in the Eastern District, driver, let's go back to the Baifu."

"Baifu?" Liu Xi yawned and said, "What method did you think of?"

"I think our thinking is a bit rigid, and we are still stuck in a fixed routine," Bai Lu raised the report file in his hand, and showed him the drawings and various data inside: "Why don't you try a 3D printer?"

Liu Xi blinked his eyes: "Print—machine?"

Although Liu Xi's family is engaged in high-tech, but not in this field of technology, I am not very interested in 3D printing technology.

After all, he was born in an environment of extreme material affluence, which would deprive people of interest in new things to a certain extent, as well as a kind of jumping imagination.

Bailu took him back to the White House, told the driver to wait outside, and then led him to see the various figurines in his room—and the printers that made those figurines.

Only then did Liu Xun realize where the figure of the magical girl Madoka in Qingyu's room suddenly appeared from.

"This 3D printer can not only make things of this material," Bailu turned on the computer and began to search for relevant information: "And we can use 3D printers to make 3D printers, which will continue to live like Russian nesting dolls. "

Liu Xi looked at the plastic figure in his room, but still didn't react.

"These things are all printed?" He said blankly: "But cars are not made of steel—"

No, it is enough that the casing is steel.

Liu Xun shook his head, thinking that he was really not sober enough, so he leaned over to read the information on Bailu.

"There are indeed relevant records," Bailu motioned him to look at a certain part of the records, and read out: "It is necessary to use composite materials such as carbon fiber, Kevlar fiber, and glass fiber to complete most of the printing of automotive components. "

But this means that they need engineers to re-do the car drawings instead of copying all the things in the database.

They must move from a copycat-style development to an integrated creation.

There are only so many resources and tools, but some things have to be made even if they don't exist.

That night, a large number of senior engineers were summoned into the White House for an overnight meeting.
