Chapter 240 238. Locomotive test run

This winter is colder than last year, and it snowed several times after the beginning of winter.

Fortunately, there are fewer refugees on the road this year, and the Qingtian cloth produced in Qingcheng is of high quality and low price, so the people can wear a few feet of cloth, eat well and wear warm clothes.

Qingshui County follows a system of segmented governance, regular inspections, and strict reporting, coupled with militia inspections, road patrols, and temperature checks when entering the city. In Qingshui County, people rarely have the chance to encounter living corpses when they go out.

.

They will support anyone who allows them to live a good life.

As word of mouth spread among the people, Ren's prestige grew day by day.

The New Year is approaching, and people in the snowy Qingcheng City have begun to decorate with lanterns. The white snow, coupled with bright red lanterns and ribbons, is very lively and festive!

Ruan Tang walked out of the door wearing a thick off-white scarf. She covered her mouth with her hands and took a breath of hot air. She looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky with joy in her eyes.

"Sister, please wear a thick coat when it's cold."

A crisp voice came from the house, and then a thin and small figure flew out lightly. She was holding a big red cloak in her hand, and she put it on Ruan Tang.

"Chu Chu, you have adapted very quickly in the past two weeks. It seems that in more than half a month, you will almost be able to master the method of controlling the magnetic field."

Ruan Tang tightened her cloak and said happily as she looked at Bai Chuchu, whose body was floating with her toes about a foot above the ground.

"It's all thanks to my sister's teachings that I know how to transform the magnetic field energy in my body. Sister, I don't want to leave, I want to stay with you. I can do many things, and I can even work on the construction site. I see they are building

To build a house, I can move bricks on the fly."

Bai Chuchu said.

She felt that Ruan Tang treated her very well, and she was afraid that after leaving Ruan Tang, she would never meet such a good master again.

"Little girl, you are of great use, not just for moving bricks."

Ruan Tang pinched Bai Chuchu's face.

After this girl was washed, she looked quite pretty and lovely. She was more than a little bit prettier than the miserable look she had that day.

"Xu~"

There was a sound of horse hooves outside the door, and finally stopped at the door.

There was a knock on the door: "General Manager Ruan, the factory is organizing a test drive today, I'm here to pick you up."

Ruan Tang opened the door and saw a carriage parked outside.

After she pulled Bai Chuchu onto the carriage, the two female guards also followed, riding behind the carriage.

The snow on the street was swept clean by the merchants on both sides of the street. The noisy activities of the people were not affected by the heavy snow at all. On the steaming streets, people were busy preparing New Year's goods. Various cloth shops and tailor shops

, as well as stalls selling couplets, firecrackers and the like, are also doing brisk business.

"Sweet potatoes, hot, sweet, soft and delicious sweet potatoes!"

"Sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes brought down from the sky by the governor!"

The cries of sweet potatoes outside and the ripening of the sweet potatoes brought back by Ren Pingsheng have also entered the daily life of the people.

"Stop the car and buy a sweet potato."

Ruan Tang stopped the car and asked someone to buy some sweet potatoes and distribute them to everyone.

She held the sweet potatoes and ate them while the car drove out of the city.

Soon, we arrived at Qixing Vehicle Machinery Manufacturing Factory, which is not far from Renjiazhuang. The door of the factory is very inconspicuous, but the factory area is very large, and the security is very thorough. The people standing guard at the door are holding rifles.

The equipment is better than the soldiers of Yuntai Guard.

"Master Engineer!"

Ruan Tang heard some weird names from outside, raised the curtain, and greeted the guards.

This made the guards on guard feel happy.

Soon, the carriage came to a wide area. As soon as the carriage stopped, someone immediately came to greet it.

"General Manager Ruan!"

"Chief Engineer, today is a good day. The auspicious snow heralds a good harvest."

Ruan Tang jumped out of the car neatly.

During this period of martial arts training, she often let Ren Pingsheng take advantage of her in the name of essential oil massage. However, she had already started practicing martial arts, and she was stronger and healthier than when she first traveled through time.

As soon as I got out of the car, the snowflakes that had melted on my head fell again.

"General Manager Ruan, let's watch the stands first."

Liu Wen also came over.

"good."

Ruan Tang nodded, smiled at the people around him, and then sat down in the stands.

The huge steam locomotive is also hung with festive red satin.

"Aren't people from the design institute here?"

Ruan Tang looked around and asked.

"Here you go, Dean Zhao, come here."

Liu Wen shouted to a man in his thirties in the audience.

"Director Liu, please call me."

Dean Zhao stepped onto the stage and asked humbly.

Liu Wen said: "General Manager Ruan wants to ask you."

"Hello, chief engineer, my name is Zhao Han, and I am the vice president of the Design Institute. I also listened to your class in school. It was really thought-provoking and many of the contents made me enlightened!"

Zhao Han looked at Ruan Tang and said with admiration.

In his opinion, although Chief Engineer Ruan is a woman, her profound knowledge is enough to win anyone's respect.

"Thanks."

Ruan Tang asked curiously: "Are you a student in the Hanlin class?"

Zhao Han waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, I heard that Chief Engineer Ruan went to the school to teach and was specifically there to observe."

Ruan Tang nodded and asked: "Has the first railway line been designed now?"

Zhao Han took out his briefcase and took out a piece of white paper with a precise hand-drawn drawing on it:

"The first railway line has been finalized.

We drew such a map based on drone footage and field measurements, and designed the railway line from Qingcheng Town to Hukou Town in Yunlong County based on the map.

First, it is very close to coal and iron mines. Once the railway is laid, coal can be transported by train, which greatly improves transportation efficiency and reduces transportation costs.

Second, according to next year's plan, a dock will be built on the Liusha River next year to connect water and land.

Third, soldiers from the Qingcheng Barracks can quickly rush to the Yunlong front line by train, which can also reduce supply pressure.

Fourth, the line passes through Yunkai Town, Daji Town, Datian Town in Qingshui County and Heifeng Town in Yunlong County, which are also market towns with large populations, making it convenient for people to travel and trade activities."

Ruan Tang looked at the drawings carefully and found that the topography, track positions and curve radii, switches and track connection points, elevations and slopes were all recorded in great detail. The content of his lectures and the textbooks distributed seemed to be very detailed.

The people in the design institute absorbed it fully.

Knowing that the female chief engineer is knowledgeable, Zhao Han said: "This is just a preliminary sketch. In the next two months, people from our design institute will continue to explore and refine it to ensure that the preliminary work of railway construction can eventually be completed."

Do it thoroughly."

"Well, the protective facilities around the railway must also be done well to prevent living corpses from breaking into the train driving area along the road. In addition, the roadbed and drainage system must also be done well, otherwise it will affect the lifespan and operation safety of the railway. There are also bridges

Design, this must be paid attention to and must comply with standards.

If you have any other technical questions in the future design, you can consult me."

After Ruan Tang pointed out some minor problems in the drawing, he returned it to Zhao Han.

At this time, the steam locomotive parked on the track over there also made the sound of "gurgling", and a black smoke came out of the chimney and floated into the sky.

In the front of the car, workers poured coal into the lit firebox, steam was generated in the boiler, and was introduced into the high-pressure cylinder to push the piston, and the wheels began to rotate.

"Woo~!"

A siren sounded.

"Crazy~Crazy~Crazy~"

The locomotive, which weighed nearly 200 tons, started to move on the railway.

Everyone stood up and saw this big guy really moving, emitting black smoke and making a huge roar, like a ferocious steel beast, which gave people a huge shock to the soul!

"La la la la..."

In the wind and snow, everyone clapped their hands vigorously. The cold weather could not hide the excitement and enthusiasm in people's hearts.
