Chapter 251: Fly over the empire

August 2529 in the new calendar.
The weather is hot in the afternoon, and the spacious and bright workshop is even more sultry. Even if a large steam-driven fan keeps blowing to keep the air circulating, it still makes people sweat.
In the crowd, Renne wore a loose and light shirt, already wet with sweat.
Akalander beside him was sweating and holding his back.
The two stood on the open space of the workshop, surrounded by several subordinates in management uniforms. All eyes were on the production line. A brand-new motorcycle has just been assembled and is passing a series of tests. It will be officially shipped immediately.
Akalander's eyes couldn't hide the look of expectation.
Renn was very calm.
Motorcycles are something new to others, but in his eyes, they couldn't be more familiar.
More than five months ago, based on the memory and experience of his previous life, combined with the mechanical technology of this world, he completed the prototype of the first steam motorcycle after groping for half a month through activated metal.
The car was rough and simplistic, but he liked it at first sight when it was handed over to Akalander.
The difficulty of a steam motorcycle is not technology, but creativity.
After Akaland got the prototype, he worked with Rennes to improve it for two weeks. He believed that the motorcycle must be sold, and immediately decided to invest in production.
Choosing a place, building a factory, setting up a production line, recruiting workers...Akaland originally owns an automobile manufacturing plant. He is familiar with this process and is the vice president of the mechanical trade union. He has rich contacts and experience. In less than five months, a brand new factory was built and construction started smoothly.
This motorcycle factory is located in the territory of Glamorgan. The site was chosen by Rennes himself.
With the value of this land plus original technology, he obtained 40% of the shares in the factory. Akaland provided the manpower and management team, as well as responsible for the initial capital investment, and also had 40% of the shares.
The remaining 20% ​​belong to the mechanical union.
In the Empire, any company that has a relationship with mechanical technology and requires mechanics to participate in production must more or less cooperate with the mechanical union.
The more reliant on technology, the more shares handed over to the mechanical union.
This is why the mechanical union is so rich.
"Vice President, the test is complete, the quality of this car is no problem." A mechanic in charge of factory testing exclaimed excitedly.
Beside him, a dark motorcycle parked on the ground.
Rehn carefully observed that the length of the body was about two and a half meters, with two rubber wheels on the front and rear. The overall style was similar to that of previous motorcycles. The most significant difference was the engine.
Because it was powered by steam, the engine was replaced by a steam engine, but not a pure steam engine, but a combination of rune technology to improve combustion efficiency and output power, and reduce the volume.
This rune steam engine is not an invention of Rennes. It has been popularized for many years and is used in many machinery, such as automobiles and steam trains, as well as airships.
The puppets made by the mechanics are generally driven by rune steam engines.
The fuel of the rune steam engine is also coal, but not the kind of coal on earth.
There is a big difference between the two.
It is also dug out from the ground. It has a huge output and is widely used. The name is translated as "ash coal". It is much harder than coal. Its structure is a bit like crystals. It is also more resistant to burning and can release more heat and calorific value. Almost can catch up with gasoline.
In addition, ash coal combustion produces very little residue, like fine ash, and the residual hazard is also very low.
The gas extracted from it is also very resistant to burning.
It has been almost a year since Wren traveled to Allenus, and he often burned coal to drive a steam engine, and has not yet figured out the composition of ash coal.
He guessed that ash coal should contain fire, which is why it is so strange.
"I'll try."
Akalander couldn't wait to get on his motorcycle and turned the handlebar to start.
Suddenly, the runes on the steam engine lit up red, instantly generating a lot of heat, igniting the ash coal in the combustion chamber. The blazing high temperature only takes a few seconds to boil the water, and the steam pushes the piston. After a few strokes, the train is transmitted to the tire through the chain, causing it to spin.
Puff puff……
The smoke exhaust pipe underneath sprayed white steam backwards, and the motorcycle immediately moved forward.
Akalander retracted his foot on the pedal and drove his motorcycle around the open space of the workshop. After a few laps, he gradually adapted to it, so he increased his horsepower and drove out of the workshop.
After a while, Akalander came back on his motorcycle, got out of the car rather reluctantly, and said with a smile: "Ren, do you want to feel it too?"
"No, there will be opportunities in the future."
Ren shook his head and refused.
He used to go to work in the library and rode his beloved little eDonkey every day. The wind came and rained, and he felt nauseous.
The worst part is that the battery was stolen three times!
The speed of the steam motorcycle is slightly faster than that of the electric donkey, but the comfort is far worse, the vibration is not small, and the steam engine has a loud noise when it is running. He does not want to suffer this sin.
There is still much room for improvement.
However, this round is not to worry about himself, the legendary mechanic Akaland is enough, and he does not intend to intervene in the management of the motorcycle factory.
In fact, Akalander is only responsible for the research and development of technology, leaving management and sales to others.
This situation is extremely common in the Empire.
Everyone in a company or factory is generally an extraordinary person. They are busy practicing or enjoying life, and rarely participate in business management.
These matters are handled by a group of professional ordinary people, similar to professional managers in previous lives.
Ellen Ess is a world where the strong are supreme. No matter how high the management ability of ordinary people is, it is impossible to overthrow the rule of the extraordinary.
Extraordinary people can delegate power with peace of mind.
Even if occasional flaws are exploited, once detected, it is easy for ordinary people to spit out all the benefits.
Seeing that Renn had no intention to test the car, Akaland nodded and said, "I know you are about to leave Modo. When you come back, you can try again when you have time. Let's go, I'll send it out."
Outside the workshop, there is already a car waiting.
Rehn sat in the back row and was about to say goodbye. Akaland said suddenly: "By the way, the steam motorcycle has been produced, and we haven't given it a name. There is no name, so it is not convenient to sell. You are Inventor, you have the power to name it."
"Uh..." Rehn thought for a while and smiled: "Then call it'Benz'. By the way, design a car logo for it to improve recognition."
As he said, he stretched out his hand to draw a steering wheel-shaped symbol in the air.
"The name is good!"
Akalander slapped his hands and immediately agreed: "The meaning is good, and it's easy to call. In the future, our product will be a Mercedes-Benz motorcycle!"
"Haha...Farewell."
Renn laughed inexplicably~EbookFREE.me~ and ordered the driver to drive.
After a while, the car drove into the airship take-off and landing field and stopped at one of the berths. When Ren got off the car, he saw an airship parked in front of him. Outside the hatch, two fully armed extreme fighters, one from left to right, stood there like two steel statues.
"Boss!" The Ultimate Warrior shouted in unison.
"Yeah." Reyn replied and ordered: "Notify Sicarius, let the captain take off, and we will set off immediately."
"Yes!"
The voices of the two extreme fighters were full of excitement.
Ryan boarded the airship's deck. After a few minutes, the airship under his feet slowly climbed, getting higher and higher from the ground, and flew toward the west.
He is going to fly over the empire, enter the Sion Plateau, and head to the hometown of the Makurag people!
