Chapter 1362 Cement Plant Plan

When it comes to burning cement, Equation immediately seems to be on a stimulant, and the mental state of the whole person is different.

The equation of cement has never been thought about before, because it is very troublesome to burn, and at that time, lime was already fired on Wanguo Island, and lime can meet the demand in many places, so the matter of cement has been put on hold.

The situation is different now. Waterles' various conditions are far better than when he was in Wanguo Island.

The key point is that firing cement is actually not much more difficult than firing lime. Limestone, clay and iron ore are needed for firing cement. As long as the technology of firing lime has been mastered, there is no technical barrier to firing cement , so it is not too difficult for the current IWC to burn cement.

To make cement, you only need to grind limestone and clay into powder, and then throw it into a high-temperature furnace to burn the clinker. At this time, it is one step away from cement, and then grind it into powder like the slag left over from ironmaking. , into the clinker that has been fired, and then stir evenly for firing, so that cement can be obtained.

Wei Lin tapped her head lightly, and complained: "Why didn't I think of it before, we all have these materials, I should have brought them up earlier."

Fang Fang said happily: "It's not too late to propose it now. At that time, there were only 2000 people in Wanguo Island, and the productivity was extremely low. Even if you proposed it, there would be no more manpower to maintain the operation of the cement plant. Now Waterles There are more than [-] people, we have sufficient labor force, and now is a good time to build a cement plant."

"The clay from Wanguo Island, the iron ore from Deer Island, and the lime from Lime Island, as long as the raw materials from those islands are transported to Waterles, the cement plant will be able to start production immediately." Wei Lin said with great anticipation. She herself majored in architectural surveying and mapping, how could she not understand the important role of cement.

"Okay, then let's build a cement plant next!"

Fang Fang's eyes are full of anticipation. If modern society is a towering tree, then cement is the root of this tree.

With cement, the most important thing in infrastructure can be produced, concrete.

Concrete can be obtained by mixing cement evenly with water, sand, and stones.In order to obtain stronger and more durable concrete, it can also be reinforced with steel bars.

And these materials can all be collected within the territory of Wan Guo, even steel bars can also be obtained through iron ore smelting.

There are so many things you can do with concrete.

The first is to build roads. All the roads in Waterles can be upgraded to concrete roads.

At present, there are several cobblestone roads within the urban area of ​​Waterles. When it rains, the cobblestone roads are very slippery and full of potholes. Pedestrians can walk on them, but carts will be very bumpy.As for the outside of the city, it goes without saying that it is a wasteland. When it rains, the soil becomes muddy and slippery, making it impossible to walk at all.

At that time, concrete roads will be paved throughout Waterles, one main road from east to west, one from north to south, and all other auxiliary roads will be built. The traffic will extend in all directions, and it will still be unimpeded regardless of wind and rain.

The second is to build houses. With cement, it is easy to build high-rise houses. In addition to ordinary houses, shopping malls, hospitals, and schools can also be built.

When all these facilities are built, piers, bridges, palaces, libraries, and science and technology museums will also be built immediately.

Finally, there is the military aspect. With cement, higher walls can be built and stronger military fortresses can be built.

The importance of cement is self-evident. It can be said that cement is the foundation that supports the entire world. Without cement, everything is just a castle in the air. With cement, all this can become a reality.

Fang Fang looked at Wei Lin expectantly, "How long will it take for the cement plant to be built?"

Wei Lin replied, "Try to be ahead of the match factory."

"Okay, then I should talk to Edgar and let the merchant fleet start to purchase raw materials from Wanguo Island, Lime Island, and Deer Island." , just waiting for the raw materials to arrive at Waterles and the moment when the cement plant is officially put into operation.

Since Li Qingman was transferred from Wanguo Island to Waterles by the last equation, this former maritime trading city has ushered in an unprecedented period of rapid development.

In the past, Watleys lived entirely on commerce and trade, which was a typical way of watching the sky. The trade with Nile was busy all over the world, and Watles followed suit. Once the trade between the outside world and Nile was affected, Watley Si will be affected.

But now it is different. Ever since Waterles became the territory of the nations, Equation has been working hard to manage this sea city, trying to turn the original single trade-oriented economy into both internal and external, while maintaining the original Under the premise of the advantages, we will strive to develop agriculture and industry, and then expand domestic demand, and help Waterles survive the most difficult period through the resource allocation of other islands in the world.

The current Waterles is flying forward on a rocket, and it won't be long before it will become the most advanced and developed country on this sea.

While preparing for the construction of the cement plant, a new shipyard was quietly established in the rapidly developing Waterles, and everything is moving in the best direction.

Regarding the origin of this newly established shipyard, its origin is somewhat mysterious. The materials registered at the industrial and commercial side, whether it is a legal person, a director, or a manager, are a few little people who are not well-known in Waters. Member of the Terrace Chamber of Commerce.

This caught Edgar's attention, and he immediately reported the news to Equation, feeling that this matter was a bit strange.

After hearing the information from Edgar's newspaper, Equation frowned slightly, and said, "I'm not familiar with these people, are you sure they were just ordinary people in Waterles before?"

Edgar nodded and said: "It is certain that these people are civilians and cannot have too many assets. However, the registered capital of their shipyard this time has reached [-] gold coins, which is very unusual."

"Could it be those Nilotic nobles, some of them may have missing property, so they want to use this method of reviving the corpse to establish a shipyard." Equation expressed his speculation.

Edgar said: "There have been several strict investigations of those Nilotic nobles before, and there should be no fish that slipped through the net."

Fang Fang suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are these people all young and handsome men?"

Edgar looked at the equation suspiciously, not understanding why he suddenly asked such a question, but nodded and said: "Indeed, these people are all in their early twenties, and they look pretty good."

"That's right, it must have something to do with her."
