The most indispensable thing in a steam engine workshop is a steam engine.

Now that there is a way, the entire Academy of Sciences will focus on this.

Soon, all the places that needed to be changed were corrected in less than two or three days with the help of everyone.

Cheng Ju also used the modified lathe to rebuild several pistons for use in other steam engines, and then these steam engines were transformed into lathes.

Not only can you test the degree of wear and tear, but you can also test the lathe. Wouldn't it be great to kill two birds with one stone?

The experimental modification work of the steam engine is going very smoothly, and at least good news comes out every once in a while.

The only bad news is that the cutter head on the lathe doesn't work.

Under this kind of intensity of work, it is rare to survive a day.

Moreover, in the early stage, there was a situation where it was directly broken, which is still very dangerous.

And even if it is not broken, the cutter head will be severely worn. In the end, not only will the efficiency be low, but the processing will not be up to standard at all.

Fortunately, it is not the last processing procedure, so even if this one fails, it can be saved in the next one.

Although it is a bit troublesome, it is not unacceptable.

Therefore, the Academy of Sciences added a new task to find more suitable materials to manufacture milling cutters.

Before this material was found, the steam engine workshop could only replace a milling cutter in half a day.

Although it can be used without replacement, it seriously slows down the production speed.

Now they are testing, it is a time to find problems, not a time to save costs.

With the support of huge funds, except for the lack of breakthroughs in milling cutter materials, good results have been achieved in other aspects.

For example, it is true that the higher the speed, the better the quality of the finished product.

But this is not absolute. When the speed exceeds a certain standard, it will be difficult to improve the quality, and sometimes it will even decline.

This is due to problems with the material itself, such as unevenness, or some bubbles and impurities appearing during smelting. Because the rotation speed is too fast, a piece of it will directly collapse, causing the entire piece to be scrapped.

All the finished products were transferred to existing steam engines for experiments.

The steam engine workshop has a large test device. A steam engine can drive a super device with twenty pistons.

In addition, the steam engine workshop also stepped up its efforts to manufacture a batch of steam engines for testing.

Anyway, this thing won't be wasted. At worst, after the experiment, just replace the cylinder and piston set, and the steam engine will still be usable.

Good news comes one after another, and Dahan's development seems to have entered a certain magical frequency again.

At this time, the territory of Jiuquan County is far away but not too far away.

Since the initial construction of Wuwei County was completed, and the addition of the Western Region, this place, which was originally a borderland, suddenly changed its identity.

The imperial court also established three additional counties on this corridor, namely Zhangye County, Jiuquan County and Dunhuang County, which are adjacent to Wuwei County.

The population of the newly established counties was not large, with less than 100,000 people in each county.

However, there are 50,000 garrison troops in the four counties combined. After the reorganization is completed, there will only be 30,000 garrison troops left here, under the jurisdiction of the Fourth Army Group in Guanzhong.

However, these garrisons have nothing to do with the group of people wandering in the suburbs.

Although they both belong to the Han army, in terms of rank, this hard-working army is much higher than the garrison.

Even the reorganized Class A troops cannot compare with them.

Who put it directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War?

Li Huai has been a little depressed recently.

At first, I just had a hothead, so I agreed to Chen Fengzhi and joined the Golden Army with him.

Although he managed to reach the rank of a village commander with little proficiency in knowledge, it was the same as directly becoming an officer and entering the ranks of officials.

All benefits have also been improved.

But these days are really sad.

Not to mention trekking through mountains and rivers every day, I also have to be outside in the sun and rain every day.

When the end of the excitement passed, Li Huai realized that if he did this every day, he might not even be able to find a wife.

Although his income is not low and he has status, what will happen even if he finds a wife?

You can’t take it with you, right?

But if she is allowed to stay at home, I won't be able to go home even once in a year or two. What is the point of leaving a wife at home?

Even if we were to create a human being, we might not be able to create a human being just in the time we have to go home.

Therefore, even if I get a wife, I can only keep it at home and watch it, so that people know that although I, Li Huai, live a bachelor's life, I actually still have a wife.

Of course, the hard work of the golden troops is obvious to all.

Although he is the commander of the village, the military pay and other things he receives are more than those of a hundred generals in the A-level army.

At the same time, because of the nature of their work, they need to travel outside all year round.

Vacations cannot be like those of other troops. Vacations for ordinary troops are determined based on the distance between service and home.

Those within a thousand miles have a vacation every two and a half years, for two months at a time. Counting the time lost on the road, you can stay at home for about twenty days.

If you are a thousand miles away, you only have one vacation every five years, which lasts for five months. Excluding the time on the road, you can basically stay at home for more than a month and two months.

The golden army is slightly better, with a holiday once every five years and once every six months.

But when Li Huai learned that they were going to the Western Regions in a few years, he suddenly became unhappy.

That's the Western Region. I'm afraid I won't even be able to reach home in half a year before I have to return.

So what did I do when I visited relatives? Did I explore loneliness?

Do I want a future?

Or do you want to be happy?

When you have no choice, you must choose a future.

But when you have a choice, you will be confused, what should I want?

I want everything and I want nothing.

Holding Chen Fengzhi's thigh tightly is equivalent to holding Chen Tieshan's thigh tightly.

And what does it mean to hold Chen Tieshan's thigh tightly?

Things that others would never dare to think about, I now dare to think about.

In the Golden Army, promotion is easier than in other places.

These technicians are not like the soldiers of the Golden Army. Their service period is five years, and they will retire directly after the service period. Only a few remain.

It is not that easy for people with strong technical skills like them to leave.

Therefore, probably after a series of reforms, a new problem appeared in front of the people.

Similar to Li Huai, if he works after graduation and then joins the golden army, he won't have time to get married in between.

And he was supposed to get married after graduation, but he has been putting it off. According to the current situation, if he wants to have time to get married, he can only wait until he can find someone to take care of things while visiting relatives.

There are many things that are different from soldiers. For example, nine out of ten soldiers are already married and have children.

The situation of this group of people is that they got married in their mid-teens or sixteen, and then went crazy to have children at home. They started to sign up to join the army when they were around nineteen or twenty years old. They worked for five years and saved some money to go home. During the service period, their children could still enjoy

The treatment of free schooling, rounded up, earned another 100 million...
