Yang Yuanzhao said that, Zhan Tianyou couldn't help but hold it back. No matter what, the guest followed the owner and got on the carriage together. Several luxurious carriages came out one after another. It was already past 6 o'clock in the evening. The street lights were already on on the street, making the dark night famous like daytime. Zhan Tianyou saw it and didn't say much. To him, Baotou was like a miracle place, with magical places everywhere. Take this street light as an example. I'm afraid he had seen it in his memory, that is, on the banks of the Huangpu River in Shanghai, where the concession was densely populated. {

The carriage was riding a horse and whipped it, but it didn't have a high speed. It just moved forward calmly and came to a Cantonese hotel. Cantonese hotel, although Zhan Tianyou was from Huizhou, was born in Guangzhou. After the gradual development of industry and commerce in Baotou, hundreds of thousands of workers gathered here. The tertiary industry was very developed, and the hotel was everywhere, especially some specialty, luxury hotels, catering culture and dining table meetings, have always been the characteristics of Chinese people. After inquiring about Zhan Tianyou's origin, he was introduced to this most famous Cantonese hotel in Baotou.

After a round of reception and meals, Zhan Tianyou was introduced to the Shanxi Guild Hall. After several rounds of expansion, the Shanxi Guild Hall was already the most luxurious hotel in Baotou, covering an area of ​​more than 1,000 acres, mainly landscaped by gardens, and a large number of small houses similar to villas. The highest one is the three buildings in front, with an 11-story height. It can be said that it is unique in Baotou and a standard landmark building. However, it has not been completely completed and is under intense construction. Once it is completed, it is definitely a landmark building, which will take the reception capacity of the Shanxi Guild Hall to a higher level.

Baotou is obviously different from more than a year or almost two years ago. The development of industrial and mining industries, especially various light industries, has a large number of products coming out almost every moment. When you come to Baotou every day, the merchants who purchase various goods are almost like carp crossing the river, with an extremely numerous variety, which has also led to the development of Baotou's hotel and catering industries.

In the Shanxi Guild Hall, Zhan Tianyou was introduced into a building full of European style. He had always received Western education. Later, he studied in the United States and finally returned to China. Yang Yuanzhao thought about it again and again. Then he introduced him into it. Zhan Tianyou didn't even look at what these buildings were like. He asked straight to the point: "Mr. Yang, where are the rails you mentioned?"

"Rail!" Yang Yuanzhao couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect that after Zhan Tianyou came, the first thing he did was not to ask anything else, but to ask about the rails. No wonder, Zhan Tianyou was not so focused on work and railways, so he could not achieve such great achievements in his later generations. Fortunately, he had already prepared. Without saying much, he introduced Zhan Tianyou into a small room next to him. Turn on the lights, and four identical rails were placed neatly here. The standard rails were 12 meters, and of course there wouldn't be 12 meters here. It was too long and it was inconvenient to get in. It was only 2 meters neatly cut off from a whole rail.

Zhan Tianyou is a technical official, and his most concerned about technology, especially rails. This is related to the overall situation of the railway construction. The rails cannot solve it. There is no need to say anything. He walked forward in two steps. He wanted to pick it up, but he couldn't hold it up with one hand. Zhan Tianyou's expression was stunned. You know, although he was nearly 50 years old, Zhan Tianyou's body was no worse than some young people. It should be possible to pick it up with something about 50 kilograms. The rails are really heavy, they should be heavy rails. He got another hand. Unfortunately, it felt extremely heavy. Obviously, this is definitely not a 12 kilogram light rail, or even more than a 25 kilogram ordinary heavy rail.

Seeing Zhan Tianyou's repeated attempts, Yang Yuanzhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Mr. Zhan, don't try it anymore. This is a heavy track, a heavy track of 37 kilograms per meter!"

37 kilograms per meter, two meters are 78 kilograms. Things above 150 kilograms are not something that ordinary people can carry. They have long estimated that this is a heavy rail, but the 37 kilograms number still surprised Zhan Tianyou slightly. You must know that the mainstream heavy rails now only reach 30 kilograms. To be precise, more than 25 kilograms can barely be called heavy rails, which are twice as heavy than light rails. 37 kilograms are almost twice as heavy as light rails. If his various indicators are not low to a certain extent, the mileage and transportation capacity of the year can definitely be said to be amazing. Even advanced foreign locomotives are introduced to run at a speed of more than 60 kilometers per hour, or even 70 or 80 kilometers. It is absolutely fine.

Speed ​​represents efficiency, speed represents money, which is also recognized by countries around the world. Even if it is half a step slower, China has gradually been recognized. Especially in developed areas along the southeast coast, the reason why railways are valued is that it can run 24 hours a day without changing horses and other things. Whether it is traveling or transportation, it is almost too fast to get a lot faster than traditional horse gangs, and the load capacity is also very large.

However, the efficiency brought by increasing the speed of about 30 kilometers to 60 kilometers is absolutely amazing. Conservatively speaking, once this rail is used and the Beijing-Baotong Railway is connected, the distance of 600 kilometers can be reduced to within 12 hours, and it will be a long way to go. This means that a thousand miles are no longer the end of the world, but a real distance between them. For a huge empire, it is definitely a killer weapon.

The development of the East and West in the United States is extremely unbalanced, and the West is developing rapidly. Except for a few cities close to the Pacific Ocean, the other developments in the East and West were extremely lagging behind. It is also the Pacific Railway, a railway built with the flesh and blood of Chinese workers. When it was truly connected, it connected the killer weapon on the east and west coasts, which balanced the development of the United States. The United States also gained huge benefits. It can be said that without this railway, there would be no future, the booming United States. What does the Pacific Railway rely on? It is such a heavy-rail trunk railway that has always been hard to get it. Zhan Tianyou was very excited and bent down directly to see the broken entrance.

I don’t know what cutting it is. The fracture is very flat and has not been polished. To a certain extent, this is what Zhan Tianyou really wants. A railway track that has been surface-treated, quenched, or even polished is very durable and looks unchanged. If it is not used, it is impossible to know its performance in all aspects. Only the fracture is the inside of the steel that cannot deceive people. On this, you can see the quality of the railway tracks clearly.

Lie on the broken mouth, but no matter how Zhan Tianyou looked, he could not see any bubbles. He used American technology and was built under the guidance of Williams' laboratory. The formula was determined by the all-in-one machine several times. This was the thing that finally recognized. Perhaps the workers were not skilled workers. With the previous two points, they were enough to gain a foothold. The two major problems of bubbles and inhomogeneity did not exist. The quenching of the outer surface was also done quite perfectly, which could maximize the performance of the rail itself.

After watching, touching, knocking, touching, and after several, Zhan Tianyou showed a very satisfied smile on his face and said, "Very good, the quality of this rail is very good, I don't know how many!"

"How many, how many, how many are there!" Yang Yuanzhao said calmly. The steel plant has been producing for two months, and the production of about 1,000 kilometers of steel rails has been carried out. However, the steel plant is constantly put into production. Although there are certain problems with workers, it is difficult to recruit workers for the whole world. There are also the training of the huge technical school in Baotou. The speed of workers will be faster and faster. The steel plant is the most important place in Baotou. As for a blast furnace of 1,200 people, more than 20,000 workers must be trained in the future. Therefore, the output of rails will gradually increase, this month will exceed 600 kilometers, and next month, it will even reach 800 kilometers, and eventually it will rise to 1,600, or even 2,000 kilometers.

Zhan Tianyou originally thought that this 37 kilogram heavy rail was imported from the United States. In his opinion, the only three countries in the world that can achieve such quality are the United States, Germany, Britain, and France, which are a little worse on the rails. Unexpectedly, there are as many as possible. In any country, heavy rails are controlled resources. It is okay to export in small batches, but it is absolutely impossible to use large batches without capping.

Recalling Yang Shixun's previous words, he asked tentatively: "Is this produced in the northwest?"

"That's right, it's produced in the northwest. To be precise, these four were all produced yesterday and were transported here today." Yang Yuanzhao nodded and said.

Yesterday, Yang Yuanzhao's words seemed to have some magic power, and Zhan Tianyou couldn't believe it, but Zhan Tianyou looked at it for a long time and finally said, "But, I haven't seen the steel factory in Baotou!"

"Who said the steel plant is in Baotou?"

"The steel mill is not in Baotou?"

"That's right, not in Baotou! There is no coal or iron in Baotou, how can we produce these things? Besides, Baotou in my plan is a super city. It's a waste to put the steel factory here!"

Zhan Tianyou looked at Yang Yuanzhao with bright eyes and said word by word: "Where is that?"

"Not far north, one hundred kilometers away!"

In a few simple words, Zhan Tianyou, who stared at Yang Yuanzhao's eyes, did not see any fluctuations in Yang Yuanzhao's eyes, and was calm, as if he was talking about an iron plant, that is, a strange thing. It was this attitude that convinced Zhan Tianyou. The northwest really had the ability to build a steel plant, and this steel plant could also produce qualified steel rails.

If it wasn't for the late night, he would even want to go to the steel factory on the spot.

"Okay, Mr. Zhan, what do you mean? Let's go to the steel factory tomorrow. It's very late. You can rest first and don't bother!" After Yang Yuanzhao said that, he stood up and retreated. Zhan Tianyou looked at Yang Yuanzhao's back and said nothing. Baotou really has steel rails, and these are produced in Baotou. It seems that in his consciousness, the railway plan against the sky is not so difficult to implement. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
