Chapter 433 New Year's Reward, Blueprint of Condensing Steam Locomotive
[Ding dong--the new year is coming, the host will be rewarded with 1 million prestige points, and one draw in ten consecutive draws! 】
[Ding Dong--Due to the system upgrade, the reward was delayed, and the host was compensated with a mysterious luxury gift package! 】
The sudden system sound revived Ying Yu's spirits.
A few days have passed since the New Year, and the system rewards have not arrived. He thought that the system had malfunctioned, or that his rewards had been embezzled.
Unexpectedly, the dog system was upgraded secretly.
But this is a good thing for Ying Yu.
As Daqin developed day by day, the system could no longer keep up with Ying Yu's needs.
Although a lot of reputation points have been saved, the items in the system mall are either too expensive or useless.
Then Ying Yu began to study the new functions after the system upgrade with great interest.
Just looking at it, I silently greeted the system once in my heart.
The so-called upgrade of the dog system is actually the integration and extension of the previous functions.
The first item is that more products have been unlocked in the prestige mall.
Originally, this was a good thing, but after seeing the prices of these commodities, Ying Yu suddenly had the urge to hit someone.
To sum it up in one sentence is three words: can't afford it!
The second function after the upgrade is actually a little improvement of the evolution function and the addition of a selection route.
For example, Daqin currently has steam engine and primary steam car technology. When upgrading, Ying Yu can choose which direction to upgrade, such as steam trains and supporting technologies suitable for railways, or super large boilers suitable for sea ships. wait.
Steam trains and supporting technologies require 1 million reputation points, while super large boilers for ships require a full 2 million reputation points.
Seeing this price, Ying Yu once again despised this broken system that demanded money.
Then he turned his attention to the luxurious gift package.
"If you don't give the prince a good reward, the prince will uninstall your broken system!"
Ying Yu muttered angrily, and then opened the big gift bag.
[Ding dong--Congratulations to the host, open a luxurious gift bag, and get the following prizes:]
[Ding Dong——Congratulations to the host, you have gained 1 million reputation points! 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained the blueprint of the steam threshing machine! 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained the blueprint of the lightning rod! 】
Ying Yu nodded in satisfaction.
The prestige value is the hard currency of the system's prestige mall, and the one-time reward is 1 million, which is a rare and generous one for the system.
The steam threshing machine is definitely very practical for Daqin.
Due to the new crops brought by Ying Yu in today's Daqin, the grain output has increased by ten times or even a hundred times compared to the past, and threshing has become a problem.
Even if there are some manual or hydraulic threshing machines, the efficiency is still relatively low due to Daqin's scientific research capabilities.
Now that there is a steam threshing machine, the threshing efficiency will definitely increase a lot in the coming year.
Food has always been the foundation of Daqin's stability.
As for the lightning rod, it is also a good reward for the current Daqin.
Since the advent of cement concrete and steel bars, the buildings in Daqin have become taller and taller, so lightning protection is naturally needed.
Although the Academy of Engineering can also conduct research and development, research in this area is quite dangerous. The molding technology provided by the system allows the Academy of Engineering to directly learn and learn from it, saving a lot of money.
If you can fully understand it, maybe you can use it to study electricity.
Electricity technology is an era that is even more advanced than the steam engine.
[Host: Ying Yu! 】
[Identity: Prince Daqin! 】
[Battle power: human limit (you can already beat anyone on the earth!)]
[Reputation Point: 2 million! 】
[Items: Dragon-patterned red tripod, Fangtian painted halberd, red rabbit horse, Xuanwu armor, sun-shooting bow, Zhonghua brand cigarettes, lighter, mineral water, etc. 】
[Lucky draw chance: 12 times! 】
[Servants: Shen Wansan, Zhao Yun, Yang Zaixing, Jin Yiwei, Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, etc.! 】
[Prestige Mall: Opened! 】
[Evolution function: activated! 】
"It's just enough to upgrade two technologies. No wonder it's so generous. It rewarded 1 million reputation points at once."
Ying Yu once again despised the cheating system in his heart, and then made a decision.
"System, upgrade steam train and supporting technology."
Ying Yu said unhappily.
No way, although it is a bit expensive, but with Daqin's current research and development capabilities, it will take at least ten years or even more time for self-development of large steam trains.
Time is more precious than anything else.
[Ding, congratulations to the host, the upgrade was successful, and the "Condensing Steam Locomotive Blueprint" was obtained, please check the host! 】
Ying Yu looked at the blueprint that cost him 1 million reputation points with a bit of distress, and a look of surprise soon appeared on his face.
I have to say that although the dog system is a bit unreliable, the products produced are still good.
This drawing contains not only the steam locomotive, but also a full set of train technology.
Such as traction hooks, heavy-duty train axles and buffer technology, etc.
It would take countless hours of exploration and improvement for Daqin's scientific researchers to develop them on their own.
And not only trains and railways, related mechanical principles also have very important reference significance in other aspects.
Of course, what Ying Yu valued the most was this steam-powered locomotive with a thermal efficiency of over 7%.
Although the value is not high, the efficiency of the steam engine is relatively low, and it can reach 7%, which is already quite advanced.
And this is a comprehensive level including the docking period. When it is really running at full power, the thermal efficiency can reach more than 10%.
If it can be successfully manufactured in Daqin, even if it is discounted, it can easily pull hundreds of tons of goods, or hundreds of thousands of people.
For Daqin land transportation, it is definitely a leap forward.
Ying Yu began to think about how to plan Daqin's road traffic construction.
First of all, it must be the freight railway from Xianyang City to Luoyang City.
Although the canal has been passed, due to dangerous places such as Sanmenxia, ships have to slow down when they reach this section of the road, and in some areas, they still need to be pulled by trackers to pass.
This severely limits the traffic capacity of the entire waterway.
As for the concrete straight road, although several roads have been repaired, due to the carrying capacity of the carriage, it is far from meeting the demand.
And if railways and trains can pass, then the problem of insufficient carrying capacity can be greatly solved.
And the Jiangnan Grand Canal can completely complement each other and promote each other, raising Xianyang City's control over the Jiangnan area to another level.
This is the most important area of Daqin's future economy, and it cannot be overemphasized.
Moreover, the land journey from Xianyang City to Luoyang City is about seven or eight hundred miles, which is also very suitable as the first pilot railway in Daqin.
Too short to be effective as a test.
If it is too long, it will take too long.
Ying Yu quickly made up his mind.
