Chen Fan closed the design drawing and told Li Lin: "The alloy steel frame of the hull keel structure is still too heavy. It would be best if it can be reduced by half."
Li Lin asked, "My lord, if you lose too much weight, it will definitely affect the strength of the steel frame, and it will disintegrate under high-speed flight!"
"I understand what you said." Chen Fan muttered: "I mean to continue to research on the materials."
Li Lin said helplessly: "Majesty, matching a brand-new material is completely a blind cat and a dead mouse. It takes time, money and luck."
Chen Fan asked: "Didn't I give you an alloy material ratio chart? Didn't you synthesize the same alloy above?"
Li Lin replied: "The materials department has only successfully matched stainless steel to meet the qualified standards, but the cost is too high. If it is used to build an airship, the cost is almost as heavy as gold."
"Cost is not a problem, you only need to promote it to the market." Chen Fan said: "You only need to continue to accelerate the research on materials."
"Yes, King." Li Lin took the order and passed by with a demon general when he went out.
"My lord, there is a secret memorial in southern Xinjiang." The demon will salute the secret memorial.
Chen Fan took the secret music and took a look, immediately overjoyed.
The secret recording came from the King of Pterosaurs, and only reported one thing: his subordinates did not humiliate their lives and found an easy-to-collect natural magnet vein in an extinct volcano in Rongtianling!
Chen Fan immediately replied and asked the King Pterodactyl to organize manpower for mining.
After the secret letter was sent, Chen Fan summoned Li Lin who had just left, and threw him a set of drawings.
"My lord, what is this?"
"generator!"
...
A month later, ten Geographic Hydrological Empire expedition teams set off from Wandu Valley and went along the Grand Canal to inspect the mountains and rivers in southern Xinjiang and Lingnan.
Three months later, ten expedition teams returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons with a large number of river hydrographic maps.
Another month later, just after the Spring Festival, the fourth spring of Tianan.
The King Tuntian's proposal was discussed and approved by the upper and lower chambers. Heiba decreed to build an experimental hydropower station in Santangxia, southern Xinjiang.
Soon the state machinery began to rotate, and various resources began to be transferred to Santangxia.
At the same time, under the leadership of the Imperial Press and Publication Administration, various newspapers have carried out numerous reports on this matter, allowing the people of the Empire to understand overnight what a hydropower station is and what is the significance and use of the empire’s construction of this hydropower station. .
After years of rapid development, the ability of ordinary imperial citizens to accept new things has been greatly improved.
For a while, almost everyone on the streets and alleys was discussing how to build this hydropower station and what would happen after it was completed. It seemed that everyone had become a top engineer overnight, and it was a joy to eat.
But the same incident has different opinions in the eyes of different people, especially the emerging capitalists who have just made the first pot of gold in the people are like sharks who smell the blood. They gather in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons and show their magical powers. After hearing some wind noises, I can become a pig on the wind.
In the midst of these disturbances, in early February of the fourth year of Tian’an, King Tuntian suddenly announced that he would hold an exhibition on the prospects of electric power applications in Ten Thousand Toxic Valley. At that time, all citizens of the empire could visit it for free.
The news immediately caused a sensation, which attracted more people to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons.
On February 15th, no one expected that the Great Emperor Hei Ba would suddenly visit the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons.
"Your Majesty, why are you sneaking here again?" Chen Fan couldn't help complaining after receiving the sacred driver: "Didn't those gadgets have been demonstrated to you."
Hei Bahe laughed and said, "I'm not looking at you here, besides, this time I came with a big fanfare, but I didn't sneak out."
Chen Fan looked speechless and didn't know what to say.
Hei Ba asked, "By the way, where is your hydropower station model? Take me to see it."
Chen Fan replied: "This exhibition is related to the future development of the empire's electric power industry, so I simply set up a small hydropower station on a tributary connected to the canal to demonstrate the actual machine. It is hundreds of miles away from here, Your Majesty If you want to visit, go back tomorrow."
Hei Ba asked, "What is the date of your exhibition?"
"On the 20th, there are five days left." Chen Fan replied.
Hei Ba smiled and said, "That's OK, I will stay with you for a few days, and wait until on the 20th I will participate in the exhibition with Wanmin."
Chen Fan grinned a little bit dumbfounded, and naturally guessed that Hei Ba was leaning on him deliberately, so as not to be driven back directly after the visit.
"Well, I will prepare the palace for your majesty."
Five days later, the alleys were empty.
The crowds of people gather in the upper reaches of the Qingshui River just to see the legendary hydropower station.
People from the early days have already seen that the legendary hydropower station is actually an ordinary looking gray-white dam.
It's just that the appearance of this dam looks very peculiar. It doesn't look like a brick and stone base. It seems to be carved out of a single piece of stone. In addition, the dam body is also engraved with various reinforcement symbols.
What is even more confusing to the public is that a few new factories have been built not far from the hydropower station, but what is puzzling is that although these factories have assembly lines, they do not have silly diesel engines. There is only a row of straight and towering stone pillars, hanging in the air leading a long black leather line straight to the dam.
At this time, Hei Basheng arrived, and the people knelt to welcome him.
Hei Ba then went to the observatory and gave a speech for more than half an hour. Although the people underneath were drowsy, no one dared to show it. On the contrary, it was the reporters of the various newspapers who had beaten up with them. Similarly, while taking photos of the spirit stone crazy, while holding a pen and paper to record this historic moment.
After Hei Ba gave his speech, he ordered the dam to be opened and released~EbookFREE.me~ The people immediately gave a loud cheer.
As a torrent gushes out from the dam's drain, the people at the tip of their ears seem to hear a roar from inside the dam.
After a while, a magical scene appeared!
I saw the top of a row of stone pillars next to the dam suddenly shining brightly.
Immediately afterwards, I heard the roar of machines coming from the factories.
The people were shocked, but most of them still didn't know what to do. Even during this period, the introduction and explanation of electricity in the Empire's newspapers hardly stopped reporting.
Fortunately, Chen Fan had already expected it, so he arranged a site visit to the motor factory.
Immediately, the people on the scene, under the supervision of the imperial soldiers, lined up to enter the familiar and unfamiliar factory from the front door. At the same time, they had already arranged for the narrators. When these people came out from the back door of the factory, they were all A shocked expression as if the door to a new world was opened.
