Chapter 147 Miracles
Until that time, York was still considering where the engine of this car was and what it was, which gave the car such powerful power.
York had been walking around the tractor and had a profound study of many cars. But now, no matter how he looked at it, he could not tell how much this car was related to the cars he had seen. Recalling the scene where the tractor just came, it seemed very fast and stable. The yellow land under his feet looked flat, but in fact, it was uneven. Ordinary wheeled vehicles would be very bumpy when they were traveling on such a road, but it seemed that they had not bumped a lot just now.
No wonder York couldn't understand the technology beyond this world. If he turned on the tractor and saw the engine inside, he would be even more confused. In order to protect these engines, Yang Yuanzhao even made a huge shell outside the engine. The shell was like a lot and the power structure was reasonable. However, based on the technology of this era, it could not be made at all. You must know that the space inside the tractor is not small and it cannot be expanded endlessly.
York tilted his head and kept ringing. Nash over there quickly found all the people. When Yang Yuanzhao was leaving, he also mentioned to everyone that other vehicles would come to pick them up soon without causing any fluctuations. The factories of this era have a very strong distinction between high and low. Three engineers and several technicians were treated differently in a small group of more than 100 people. Even in the previous carriage, others had four people each, and they could have two or three people each. Each depends on their own preferences. When they set out from Taiyuan, they knew that it would take about 3 days to get from Taiyuan to the destination. It seemed that it was almost here. Instead of considering this, it would be better to consider what the construction site in front of them was and why there was such a huge construction site in this desolate place.
With a hint of doubt, York got into the car. The body made of all-steel is made of car, which looks smooth and has a unique design seat. Taking ergonomics into consideration, to put it bluntly, it is a computer chair, integrated by Yang Yuanzhao in an all-in-one machine. When you sit on it, your whole body will be completely under stress. It gives people an intuitive feeling that it is extremely comfortable.
Three engineers, seven technicians, one staff member and Yang Yuanzhao, 12 people sat on the seat. They didn't fill up the seats and wanted to get a few more, but they didn't know who should get on. Yang Yuanzhao casually ordered the driver to set off, and the huge object slowly moved.
There are 12 people. Sitting in the car, it is not crowded. The tractor's territory is relatively large. Now, it has been properly widened and enlarged. To a certain extent, the 20 seats that can be accommodated, and even squeezed, the number will increase to 30 people. After the initial slow acceleration, the tractor began to move quickly on the uneven ground. Looking outside, it was a feeling. It felt extremely fierce and ran very fast. It was probably quite bumpy inside. York, who is familiar with cars, is very clear about this. He has assembled 20 cars himself, but has not yet taken a very comfortable car.
But this car is different. When sitting on it, everyone felt very strange. Why can't I feel the bumps on the tractor at all, as if I was on a boat, swaying slightly, but there was no sense of bumps. When looking out through the window, you can clearly see that the tractor was obviously bumping up and down on the uneven land. Obviously, it is not very easy to pass through these, and the bumpy pits will inevitably cause fluctuations.
"Why is it so stable?" York asked in confusion.
"Shock Absorption!" Yang Yuanzhao said. With the help of later hydraulic jacks and some forward-looking designs, Yang Yuanzhao made the shock Absorption preliminary. Of course, it was just a barely usable, and it could only be synthesized with an all-in-one machine.
Shock absorption is a milestone thing in the automobile industry. Since the emergence of shock absorption, it has begun to be used in many high-end cars. There are only two types of cars and trucks. However, luxury and high-end cars have appeared in cars. To a certain extent, it has increased the level of cars. How could the $250 Ford be compared with $1,000 or even more carefully constructed luxury cars? Especially in later generations, luxury cars are no longer worth their own value, but even have the value of luxury cars. As production costs, it is no longer possible to measure the value of a good car.
As an automobile enthusiast and an engineer who pursues speed, York is very clear about what a smooth feeling will make the rich pay. He looks at the bottom of the car, but unfortunately the bottom is smooth and sealed, so it is impossible to see what is inside. Even if Yang Yuanzhao asked him to take apart, he might not be able to see it. In order to ensure the stability of the car, Yang Yuanzhao has installed more than 8 large shock absorbers at the bottom of the car, and there are 16 springs as thick as a thumb. The current steel craftsmanship cannot provide such powerful spring steel at all, so that the entire car can appear very stable. Yang Yuanzhao is not going to show these things one by one.
"What is that!" Another engineer, Jerry, turned his attention to the construction site not far away. The tractor was running quickly and was approaching the construction site. There were huge buildings, various steel bars and concrete materials, and most importantly, at least 15 large machinery similar to this one, those with huge shovels, and huge steel rolling.
"This is a road, a concrete road connecting Baotou and Taiyuan. By next year, after this road is connected, driving on this road will not be as difficult as it is now!"
"The cement roads are all made of cement?"
"That's right!"
Jerry took a breath of air conditioning, and the other people who knew cement had the same expression. Cement has become popular in the West, but cement roads only have a few key highways, or more important streets in cities, so they choose this way. What is this place? It is a desolate plateau with red soil everywhere, but a cement road needs to be built.
Yang Yuanzhao didn't explain much, because the facts were right in front of him. When the tractor was running along the road under construction, especially on the road where cement roads were being laid, everyone stopped talking.
Anyone can see that those concretes use cement. I don’t know the effect of these cements, but there is no doubt about cement roads. With such a wide road, looking at the thickness of the cement, you will know that there are definitely not a few cements used. Where did these cements come from? Could it be that they were imported?
There was a silence in the carriage, as if all their previous thoughts were illusions. Baotou seemed to contain secrets. At this time, following the tractor, a huge tractor passed by. York asked curiously: "By the way, what are those, road construction machinery? It looks similar to what we were sitting on!"
“Yes, that’s the road building machinery, we call it bulldozers and rollers!”
"Buldozer, roller! Very vivid!" York could understand from the name, what those things were. When looking at the work, he understood a little. The bulldozer could level the land and transport a large amount of soil to a suitable location. As for the roller, the excavated roadbed is under the heavy pressure of the roller, the loose soil layer gradually becomes stronger. Even if it is not laid, it uses some fine sand and stones to make the road pass.
From Suiyuan to Baotou, it is almost 100 kilometers. Generally, traveling by carriage requires at least one day. This is the road conditions and there is no weather impact. However, the tractor is different. Especially now, the horsepower of the tractor is 193 horsepower. On a not-standard road, even if it carries 14 people, more than one ton of weight and the entire carriage, its speed can reach 35 kilometers per hour.
Suiyuanli is more than 100 kilometers away from Baotou. At a stable tractor speed, three hours, three hours may be long for others, but for engineers, such an advanced machine is their best research object, especially it can guarantee that under complex road conditions for 3 hours, it also has considerable stability. This shows the stability of this machine. It seems that for a while, I am not so disgusted with coming to the barren northwest. It seems that here is a unique and interesting taste.
In particular, York almost looked at it while calculating. From time to time, he turned around to ask Yang Yuanzhao questions and asked many questions about engines and cars. Many of them reached the core questions. Some of Yang Yuanzhao answered him, and some of them said that he made York a little excited and depressed.
During the sun, Baotou finally arrived. If you enter Baotou from the other side and see the scenery of Baotou at this moment, it is based on the previous buildings in Baotou. There are many newly built buildings that will disappoint these foreigners. But Yang Yuanzhao specifically instructed to enter from the other end and enter directly from the industrial area. There is a huge construction site, a huge residential area prepared for more than 1,000 foreign workers, and the other is the huge steel structure in the center of the industrial area.
In a few days, all the steel structures could not be completed, but the main project was still fine. The steel structure as a whole was not as huge as the steel structure of the cement factory, but it also covers an area of 15,000 square meters, which was almost 20 acres of land. It is connected to the surrounding residential areas, but its main body is a striking scene. Above more than 20 acres of land, the huge steel structure is surrounded by the construction site.
The three engineers were shocked first, and Jerry even exclaimed directly: "God, is this a miracle?"
Although the others were not as surprised as Jerry, they couldn't speak, staring at this huge steel building without blinking. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
