In the past, material transfer was mainly carried out domestically, and there was not much loss problem. It only took a short time to get on the track. Compared with speed, as long as the road is good, neither horses nor rivers are actually slow. The so-called loss is also
That's all.
But when this road extends to thousands of miles away, if war horses continue to be used, it will really kill the man to eat horse chews. Thousands of miles away, the legion is marching, even if the energy of heaven and earth is strengthened, a hundred miles a day is not considered slow.
After a hundred days of wasted supplies, Chen Xi said that I am not a god either!
So it is basically doomed to get on the rail train. Although the speed may not be much improved, the train speed at the beginning is only about ten kilometers per hour. Of course, the advantage is that it can travel day and night. Of course, changing horses at the post station can also be done, but obviously
It cannot be played on a large scale.
Naturally, taking the rail train has become the best choice. After this change of thinking, the only thing to consider is the issue of laying tracks. In fact, it is no different from building roads. When the road to the Western Region is built later, repairs along the road will be completed.
A track is enough.
In other words, there is another major project, and we can just repair it together. Anyway, the second engine of the rail train has not been completed yet, so let’s repair it first, and then we can do it after it is repaired. Sharpen the knife and chop the wood without missing a beat.
Work, we have reached this stage, there is nothing we can do in a hurry.
"It's okay to repair the track. Since you can solve the money problem, the rest is just a waste of time. It's just that this thing can't be built in a day or two." Xun Yu thought about the logistical support of thousands of miles.
Line, the middleman eats the horse's chew, yes, Chen Xi is right.
"Let's practice first. Since we have decided to go up here to increase our transport capacity, we should prepare ourselves first and wait until it is time to use it. Then we can just get on the horse. There is not so much time to waste." Chen Xi curled his lips and said, "Mighty
Can Shuo handle it?"
"I'll look for this." Liu Yan didn't care whether it cost money or not, he just took the job directly. But I don't know if this professional still exists. It's been unused for hundreds of years. It's not like astronomy or mathematics.
The gadget that can make people feel wisdom has been lost forever.
"It's not the problem you're looking for, it's that you must find it. If you can't find it, our track won't be solved." Chen Xi gave Liu Yan an order with a dark face. As for using rail tracks, save it.
This dream is unrealistic. The Han Dynasty simply did not have that much iron to do this.
Take China's standard railway track as an example. One meter of rail weighs almost 60 kilograms. A track of 10,000 miles, using the simplest duplex, requires a length of 40,000 miles and uses more than 1.2 million tons of iron. If Chen Xi had
With so much iron, it will still be tied up on the seventh-generation ship.
So to be realistic, we still have to use the wooden rails of the First Emperor. Anyway, the anti-corrosion, moth-proofing, and hardening technologies of the wooden rails during the First Emperor's era were very good. Even after being dug out for more than two thousand years, they were not completely corroded. We will continue to use the technology.
Just use it.
But the biggest question is, where is this technology now? This is a big question.
"Okay, I will mobilize my friends to look for it for you, but this kind of technology has not been used for hundreds of years and cannot be used to show off. Zichuan, you have to be mentally prepared." Liu Yan was very worried.
Helplessly explaining his difficulties, he has been hanging out with the big guys for a long time now, so he still knows what is going on and what is not going on, not to mention that many people have secretly filed records.
Track technology like this is, to be honest, very confusing.
"Go find it now. You won't help us here, so this will be your next job." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.
Liu Yan packed up his things and left. He really didn't deal with government affairs very much. He was really a mess in both politics and the military. But most people spoke highly of Liu Yan.
Although he was unable to do any serious work, Liu Yan was self-aware and knew how to brag about others. He had friends all over the world, so it didn't matter whether he was strong or not.
"Chang Wen, you can look through the treasury and see if you can find it. Since you have decided to start this thing, make preparations in advance to save yourself from being in a hurry." Chen Xi sighed and faced Chen Qun.
greeted.
"No, I just took stock of the clan's treasury some time ago and counted the old papers I got from who knows where. I still know what there is. We don't have the technology you want. We have this.
The small technical family was also chopped to the ground." Chen Qun rolled his eyes and said, he would not talk nonsense in this regard.
"Hey, which one!" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"Xiangli clan!" Chen Qun said matter-of-factly, "This family is also good at playing tricks. Lu Buwei offended Lu Buwei when he was alive, and Li Si was offended when Li Si was in power. In the end, you know."
"Oh." Chen Xi nodded. He was already a powerful Xiangli clan even though he had committed suicide to this extent. However, there was no doubt that the inheritance would be broken.
"Are there any other families with this?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"I don't know. If the Sima clan of Xia Yang were still there, if you asked them, they would definitely be able to give you an answer, but they are also dead." The corners of Chen Qun's mouth twitched, and he didn't know why he was laughing.
Chen Xi's mouth twitched. He had no choice but to look at his face. He hoped Liu Yan's face was big enough to find what he wanted.
"What did you think they were thinking back then?" Chen Xi suddenly said with some emotion.
"The Xiangli family belongs to the practical group and does not understand politics. It is normal for them to be in conflict with Lu Buwei and Li Si. As for the Sima family in Xia Yang, don't you think they have too much control?" Chen Qun glanced at Chen Xi and said.
"If a historian doesn't write at all, writes whatever he has, and also copies the schools and directions of each school for reference, he will easily offend people." Xun Yu answered on Chen Qun's behalf, and Chen Xi finally understood.
No wonder there were so many idiots later.
"Anyway, a lot of things have been lost. Sooner or later I have to make a backup of the system." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said unhappily.
"Historians back then had the same idea, and then they died." Chen Qun said with a little malice, and Jia Xu and others also looked at Chen Xi. It's okay to talk about this kind of thing, but if you really want to do it, you Chen Xi
One generation can suppress it, but the next generation will probably have to pay off your debt.
"Okay, just kidding, how about asking them to register if they want something that is not the latest?" Chen Xi turned to look at Zhong Yao. This guy can make absolutely correct judgments at the moment. It is very good to use it when hesitating.
.
"It's not a problem at all. For your sake, even if you want the latest one, they will give it to you. If it's not the latest one, they will be very happy to give you a favor." Zhong Yao silently threw his plan aside.
, and quickly made the correct judgment.
"I will send a message to that group of people later and ask them to come and register for me quickly. They have lost so many things because of the lost information. By the way, who still has chrome plating technology now?" Chen Xi glanced at those present.
A group of people asked casually.
It is also a metal weapon. If it is plated with a layer of chromium, its strength will become higher. If there are only one or two pieces, it is an accidental coincidence at most. However, the weapons of the Qin Army in the later period were all chromium-plated, and even the arrows were also chromium-plated, which is crazy.
.
"Some swordsmiths still have this technology." Zhong Yao said softly.
"Can it be used on a large scale? Look at the weapons of the Pre-Qin Dynasty. They are all coated with this thing to increase their strength. What about us? Can it be used?" Chen Xi said very dissatisfied.
"I know someone who has this technology." Xun Yu looked sideways and said, "It's just that it hasn't been commonly used in the past few hundred years, so I've been neglected. I'll find someone to sort it out later, and I'll just give you a copy. This kind of
Things are not lost, they are just used less. If you really want something like this, just ask and someone will definitely give it to you."
Chen Xi said that he didn’t want to talk at all. You really do. I just made a casual comment to prove that something was lost. But then you turned around and told me that it was not lost, but that this thing has become less popular in recent years and people don’t play it much anymore.
"Look, look, this is a very useful technology, but it has been left idle by you all." Chen Xi has also developed his face over the years. At least he has no problem telling lies with his eyes open. Faced with Xun Yu's answer
, Chen Xi unceremoniously pretended to be dead.
"Okay, don't dwell on this. If you don't want something fundamental from each company, they will definitely give you some strange things to deal with, and even give you some things that your ancestors gave up." Xun Yu was too lazy to do so.
Talking about this kind of thing, who hasn’t ordered a product of death? “The so-called backup means two clicks, which is not realistic at all.”
"I want to hit someone!" Chen Xi said with a dark face.
"It's useless. The things you can back up can only be obtained through official channels. Some things are not allowed to be spread outside."
It was quite interesting to watch Chen Xi run towards his death.
"Forget it, forget it, let's bring this matter to an end." Chen Xi may have sensed Xun Yu's sincerity and knew that this matter could not be carried out, so it was a pity that he changed the subject.
Then, before Chen Xi could say anything, Liu Yan appeared at the Government Affairs Office with cookies.
"Hey, weren't you looking for related technologies? Why did you come back so quickly?" Chen Xi said hello to Cookie first, then turned to Liu Yan and said.
"I have that thing at home." Liu Yan couldn't answer, so Cookie answered first.
"Uh, when did your family do this?" Chen Xi looked at Cookie suspiciously.
"I haven't done it before, but my family has picked up the inheritance of the Mo family." Cookie rolled his eyes and said, "I have told you about this before. The thing you want happens to be recorded, and I have seen it before.
, although I didn’t feel anything about it at the time because I didn’t know what its use was.”
