Chapter 950 Mass Production of Steam Engines

"Oh, Lao Li, you said our factory is now built, what are the benefits?" a worker asked.

Li Changji said with a smile: "Of course, many people in Fengyang City will have jobs by then. Think about it, when the factory starts construction, we will have to recruit workers. When the time comes, everyone will be able to work in the factory. With a stable job, I no longer have to suffer from cold and hunger. "Yes, that's great." The workers all looked at it with yearning.

Zhao Er was listening and couldn't help but be filled with emotion.

He thought of his efforts during this period and of Prince Chu Ze's ambition.

He secretly vowed to do his best to help Prince Chu Ze build Fengyang City.

In this way, with the concerted efforts of everyone, the construction of Fengyang Industrial Zone gradually improved.

Factory buildings are rising one after another.

At the same time, Chu Ze was not idle either.

On this day, Chu Ze summoned various officials in the government hall, with drawings spread out in front of him.

"Wonderful!" an official exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this design is so exquisite! I have never seen such an exquisite mechanical design in my entire life!" "Yes," another minister also said in admiration: "Your Majesty is indeed a knowledgeable man. If he can design such an exquisite steam engine, I'm afraid there will be no one else in the world?" Chu Ze smiled modestly and said, "You are so complimentary. These are all things I learned before. A little superficial knowledge is far from being a real expert.

The drawings are very beautiful, the size and material of each part are clearly marked, and the structure is also very clever. You can tell at a glance that it was designed by a master.

As soon as the officials heard this, they understood what the prince meant, so they all came forward and looked at the drawings carefully.

He knew that to make Fengyang Industrial Zone truly operational, it was not enough to have factories, but also to have advanced machinery and equipment.

"

These are the steam engine designs he designed himself.

Your main task is to have a clear division of labor. Let each craftsman be responsible for manufacturing a certain part, and finally assemble it together. You will be able to build a large number of steam engines in a short time.

They all knew the importance of the steam engine.

"Your Majesty," a young official asked, "Making steam engines in batches requires a large number of technical personnel. Do we have so many capable craftsmen?" Chu Ze smiled, pointed to the drawings in front of him and said, "Everyone, please take a look. This is the steam engine drawing I designed. I made some improvements based on the steam engine structure on the previous trains, specifically for factory production. Just follow this drawing and find some craftsmen with certain skills and experience.
Even if you don’t understand the principle, as long as you have strong hands-on skills.

But how easy is it to build a steam engine? This is not something that ordinary blacksmith shops can do.

"My lords," Chu Ze said, "Our factory in Fengyang Industrial Zone has almost been built. The next key is to manufacture steam machinery and equipment for producing various commodities. With them, our factory can Really start production." After hearing this, all the officials nodded.

Next, Chu Ze arranged for officials to summon craftsmen or go to the private sector to post notices to recruit craftsmen and blacksmiths to specialize in making steam engines.

In just over half a month, a group of skilled blacksmiths were gathered together to begin intense manufacturing work.

Chu Ze is in command. He divided the craftsmen into several groups, each responsible for the manufacture of certain parts.

The blacksmiths hammered and forged different types of metal parts.

Everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other, and then assembled them one by one according to the drawings.

One afternoon, in the production workshop of Fengyang Government, everyone was excited around a completed textile steam engine.

"Your Majesty, this steam engine is so amazing!" A craftsman said: "Look at this exquisite structure and these beautiful lines, it is like a treasure given by God!" "That's right, I have lived a life. I have never seen such a beautiful machine in my entire life.” The older man feels very craftsmanlike.

Chu Ze couldn't help but feel excited when he saw everyone's excitement and pride.

This is Fengyang’s first steam spinning machine!
Its birth shocked this ancient city.

"Everyone, today is a day worth celebrating." Chu Ze said: "Thanks to everyone's hard work during this period, we were able to build this steam spinning machine in such a short time. The birth of this machine will Completely change the face of Fengyang! From now on, we no longer have to rely solely on manpower to work. With it, our production efficiency will be greatly improved!" Everyone applauded after hearing this.

"Okay, it's not enough to just stand here and say it. You have to start the machine quickly and try its power!" Chu Ze motioned to the craftsman next to him.

After several masters saw it, they immediately stepped forward and carefully pulled the valve according to Chu Ze's instructions.

Just hearing a loud "rumbling" sound, the steam engine started to run.

I saw that the water in the boiler was heated into steam, which was continuously transported to the cylinder through pipes.

The piston moves rapidly back and forth driven by the steam, driving the connecting rod and flywheel to rotate.

The rotating flywheel drives various components on the textile machine to start working through traction.

The fibers were fed into the machine one by one, and after a series of complex processes, they were quickly spun into thin threads.

The lines were wound onto the spool again and arranged neatly.

After a while, a finished product was spun out and piled under the machine.

"It's incredible!" The crowd exclaimed: "This machine can spin cloth in such a short time. Compared with manual spinning, the efficiency has increased several times!" "Isn't it? Look at this speed, this The efficiency is simply a magical machine!" Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction.

He carefully examined the operation of each component of the machine and made secret calculations.

"With this efficiency, it won't take long for us to spin a large amount of cloth." Chu Ze analyzed: "When the time comes, we will not only be able to meet the needs of our people in Fengyang, but also transport the cloth to all parts of the country for sale, and even Sold overseas. In the future, our Fengyang's financial revenue will be greatly increased, and the living standards of the people will also get better and better!" Zhao Si and Li Xing on the side could not restrain their excitement.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhao Si sincerely praised: "With these steam engines, we are one step closer to realizing the goal of industrialization!" "Yes," Li Xing also said with emotion: "Your Majesty is indeed a visionary. Who can design such an exquisite machine?
