Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Liu Jin rushed to Tianjin Machinery Research Institute while listening to Zhu Houzhao bragging about the steam locomotive he participated in the research.

    Tianjin Machinery Research Institute is a branch of the Beijing Machinery Research Institute in Tianjin. It is mainly used to study steam locomotives and steam ships.

    After the initial research on steam locomotives was successful at the Beijing Machinery Research Institute, inspired by Liu Jin, they began to lay rails in Tianjin to run steam locomotives, and achieved great success.

    So much so that when Zhu Houzhao learned that Liu Jin had come to Tianjin, he immediately hurried over to find Liu Jin and excitedly showed Liu Jin the success of his research.

    Soon, Liu Jin arrived at the Tianjin Mechanical Research Institute on horseback. While people were still outside, Liu Jin could already hear the sound of whistles and the familiar sound of railway tracks running.

    "Haha, listen to this sound, how exciting it is, this is the power of machinery!"

    Zhu Houzhao raised his head slightly and said very proudly.

    He used to be addicted to military affairs and dreamed of having a man who could seize the throne like Huo Qubing, but slowly he understood that as the prince, he would never have this opportunity.

    Later, I met machinery and gradually became addicted to the world of machinery. With my diligence and intelligence, I quickly became a master in the field of machinery.

    Although he is very small and young, he is definitely a master in the field of Ming machinery.

    "Haha, I like this sound too."

    Liu Jin also had a smile on his face, and walked inside with the same happy laugh.

    The successful research on steam locomotives means that the train will come out. Once the train comes out, Ming Dynasty will usher in a new era.

    The meaning of the train is really great.

    Especially for a country with a vast land like Ming Dynasty, the train is even more extraordinary.

    The huge transportation capacity of trains is enough to change the face of a country.

    Whether it is used to transport goods or passengers, trains are very capable. With trains, whether it is the mobilization of troops or the circulation of goods, the exchange of people will become extremely convenient.

    From now on, with the extension of railway tracks, Ming Dynasty¡¯s dominance over various regions will continue to strengthen, and Ming Dynasty¡¯s economy will take off again.

    Soon, with excitement, Liu Jin came to the site of the steam locomotive experiment.

    This is a huge open space. The open space is very flat. A circle of railroad tracks is laid on it, and a steam locomotive is constantly walking back and forth on it.

    Around them, there are thousands of people excitedly watching the operation of the steam locomotive. Most of these people are researchers from the Institute of Mechanical Engineering. They are all smiling and extremely excited.

    "A wooden cow and a stray horse are nothing more than that~"

    "Can a wooden ox or a flowing horse compare with our steam locomotive?"

    "Let's not talk about whether there are wooden cows and flowing horses in history. Even if there are, they can only transport a few dozen kilograms of things at a time. But our steam locomotive is very powerful and can transport at least tens of thousands of kilograms at a time.  goods."

    "Yes, how can a wooden cow or a flowing horse compare with our steam locomotive?"

    "That's right, that's right~"

    Liu Jin listened to the discussion and could tell that everyone was very proud of the steam locomotive.

    "Mr. Liu~"

    Ren Siheng from the Mechanical Research Institute hurried to Liu Jin's side, with a smile on his face, unable to conceal the joy and excitement in his heart.

    "Well done~"

    Liu Jin gave him a thumbs up. To be honest, Liu Jin himself did not expect how quickly he could get the steam locomotive out.

    The strength of Ming craftsmen is still very strong.

    As long as we can give them the respect they deserve, let them have enough food and clothing, be able to concentrate on studying some things, and give them some guidance, the development of Ming's science and technology will naturally be very rapid.

    "Thank you Mr. Liu for the compliment~"

    Ren Siheng smiled and thanked him, brought Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao to the middle, and then waved to the person driving the steam locomotive. The other person immediately understood and drove the steam locomotive slowly over.

    "How long is this track?"

    Liu Jin looked at the track in front of him carefully and asked.

    "The track is 1.6 meters long, which is five feet. We designed the track based on the width of the carriage."

    Ren Siheng replied quickly.

    Meter is the unit of length proposed and determined by Liu Jin. In many industries, research institutes, andThere was a loud sound and bursts of black smoke blown by the wind.

    "Well, it has a hint of the fragrance of incompletely burned coal!"

    Liu Jin was smiling all over his face. Although the steam locomotive in front of him could not be compared with the trains of later generations, in this era, it was definitely the most advanced machine in this era.

    "The train is coming~"

    "A new era has finally arrived!"

    Liu Jin looked into the distance, as if he saw the Ming Dynasty moving forward on a new high-speed road, heading towards a more glorious and prosperous future.

    "Well, it seems that the stock issuance of the Egyptian Canal will still be at the back. The first one to be issued is naturally the train stock."

    Then Liu Jin touched his chin and started thinking.

    "Where is the most suitable place to build this first railway?"

    "Beijing and Tianjin should be the most suitable. The Beijing-Tianjin area is now the most prosperous and core area of ??Ming Dynasty. There are too many factories here. The cement roads connecting the Beijing-Tianjin area are now almost submerged by four-wheeled carriages."

    "It is more appropriate to choose the Beijing-Tianjin line for this first trial railway. It can not only solve the traffic problems in the Beijing-Tianjin area, but also has great economic value and is also very meaningful for stock issuance."

    "After accumulating experience, we can raise funds on a large scale to build important east-west, north-south lines." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
