Chapter 148 Steam Roller

Does Feng Yu like going to taverns?Not unless necessary, no!
So Borui couldn't wait for Feng Yu, but because of something on his mind, he inadvertently drunk himself one cup after another.

In fact, Feng Yu has nothing to fool Borui. The irrigated fields on the Great Wasteland are there, and he doesn't believe that the dwarves will come or not.

He has a lot of things to do now, besides the research institute, there is also the new mining area.

The iron ore that Mr. Anthony discovered while clearing the wasteland some time ago has been dug up, and Master Mason has been brought back to conduct on-site inspections.

The result is very gratifying. It is a rich mine with a large reserve, but it is far from the camp, and it is still an old problem. Mining and transportation are troublesome.

Feng Yu has deeply realized that with the rapid development of Cattail City, the road traffic problem has become a major problem restricting the development of the camp.

The current camp not only needs the road between the camp and the new iron mine, but also needs a hard road between the camps, otherwise the dusty wilderness will inevitably be full of traffic and dust.

Moreover, the dirt roads will deform over time. Although there is not much rain on the Great Wasteland, if it really rains, the traffic will be paralyzed.

But now there are not enough people, Feng Yu is waiting, waiting for those migrants to arrive, it is a large army of tens of thousands, if you come out casually, Feng Yu's road construction plan will be implemented.

Now he holds ready-made houses and farmland in one hand, and white money in the other, and he is not worried at all about not being able to find a lot of labor.

As a reserve of the Dwarf King, Borui naturally needs to have a deep understanding of the root cause of the changes in the Cattail City camp, which is Dick's friend Darren Storm from another continent.

Feng Yu also understood Borui's reason for coming, but he didn't have any bad thoughts about the dwarf, so he was naturally not afraid to confront the dwarf's successor.

No matter how closed the dwarves are, they also know the situation in Grian Continent. Feng Yu didn't go that far. The reason for hoarding food, salt, and weapons alone is strong enough.

Believe it or not, Feng Yu's plan is beneficial to the dwarves. Feng Yu is not afraid that the dwarves will not come to the wasteland, unless they don't want the "temporary granary" of the wasteland.

Feng Yu didn't tell them that he planned to take root in the wasteland, not for a short-term storage of food. He was afraid that no one would believe him if he said it, and something else would happen instead.

Borui didn't leave for the time being, the weather turned cold, and there was nothing to do in the Xueding Mountains. He wanted to stay here for a while to get a deeper understanding of the changes in the camp and Feng Yu's purpose.

Feng Yu welcomes this very much. He doesn't like people pointing fingers, but if he just walks around and has a look, then he is free.

Huaxia missed a lot of things because of the previous closed-door policy and the subsequent continuous war. Later, the industry was able to develop at a high speed, which can be regarded as standing on the shoulders of others, and it started very high.

Why do you say that, because Huaxia started from the application of internal combustion engine power and electric energy. From the very beginning, there was a complete industrial system.

But in terms of real industrial development, Huaxia has actually missed a very romantic era, the era of steampunk.

The history of the earth's industrial development, since the appearance of the steam engine, has unfolded a brilliant but gone picture scroll, that is the age of steam.

Steam machinery, trains, ships, and automobiles are all products of that era.

Regardless of the train, why the ship is called a ship is because the earliest steam-powered ship was driven by a steam engine driving paddle wheels on both sides of the ship.

The reason why a car is called a car is because the first car was powered by steam, emitting white water vapor.

The steam cars of that era have already been divided into cars, trucks, trailers and tractors according to the size and purpose of power.

That's why China's industrial development has missed an era, because we have directly skipped the era when steam engines were popular.

Based on the current industrial foundation of the camp, Feng Yu originally planned to jump directly from the era of steam machinery to the era of electric machinery, but he found that this was not possible, because there was no big brother to provide the camp with a complete industrial system.

So he wants to get on a steam machine like a steam car, not because he likes the steampunk style, but because he wants to accumulate industrial infrastructure and manufacturing experience.

Because of the bug profession of alchemist, Feng Yu can rely on alchemists to produce small things such as balls with a certain precision, which has the ability to launch complex steam-powered machinery such as steam locomotives.

There is no need to do it on a large scale, but the accumulation of basic manufacturing experience is very necessary.

He didn't intend to make a flashy steam bus to grab the business of horned deer and blue sheep. Instead, he led the researchers of the research institute to come up with a steam roller.

It is unrealistic to build a hard pavement, because there is no asphalt, and if you want to pave a hard pavement, you need stone powder, and if you want a long-lasting stone powder pavement, you not only need a large amount of stone powder to pile up a certain thickness, but also use some steel bars in the stone powder to enhance the tensile force.

Regardless of whether it is stone powder or steel bars, it is not a high-yield thing in the camp, otherwise Feng Yu would not be forced to build an earthen house, but directly build a building.

Therefore, the initial pavement materials are industrial waste, slag and slag that are very common in camps.

After these two things are crushed into small pieces, they are used to pave the road, and then rolled by a road roller, it can become a good slag road.

Because of the clumsy steam power source, the steam roller does not need a counterweight and is not light. It is extremely slow to walk, which makes people anxious. However, the road roller is good, at least much stronger than manual ramming.

But even this ugly and clumsy steam roller that made him want to cry in Feng Yu's eyes was a very shocking thing to the research institute itself and the people in the camp.

The biggest reason is that this guy is not like a ship, it is on the shore, beside people, and it is very tall, about [-] dicks tall.

When the steam roller was driven out for the experiment, Borui stood beside Dick, watching this big steam-breathing machine passing in front of him with a sense of shock.

"I... don't even know what to say, Mother Earth, is this really made by our dwarf artisans?!"

Dick looked at the steamroller and said, "Not only dwarves craftsmen, but also designers of elves and halflings, alchemists, machine tool operators, etc.

This is made by the Cattail City camp with a lot of strength. "

"But why is it so slow?"

"Darren said this thing is used to compact the road, so it doesn't have to be fast, it just needs to be heavy enough."
