Chapter 1256 Steam Engine
When Qin Chuchu and Siyue arrived at the car factory on their bicycles, they found that the gate was closed tightly.
"Um?"
I quickly parked the car aside and stretched my neck to look inside through the crack in the door. Why was the door still closed in broad daylight?
Besides, this is not a private place, and I have never seen the door closed.
When she saw the big guy in the yard, she opened her mouth in shock.
"Xu Zhe, open the door quickly!"
He started banging on the door excitedly, and couldn't stop smiling.
When he heard the boss's voice, Xu Zhe's mouth twitched fiercely.
“………………”
What you fear will come true. I closed the door because I was afraid that the boss would see it, but she saw it in the end.
But looking at the current situation, if she doesn't open the door, she will take it down.
"Boss, why are you here......"
After opening the door, before he could finish his words, Qin Chuchu pushed him aside and ran straight towards the big guy in front.
He ran around several times with his eyes wide open, his mouth wide open in excitement.
"What is this?"
I don’t know what kind of machine it is, but it can be so big. I have never heard of it before. I wonder what new species it is researching.
Seeing the boss so excited, he couldn't hide it anymore, Xu Zhe raised his head proudly.
"This is a steam engine. I just developed it recently."
"Steam engine?" Qin Chuchu looked at Xu Zhe and began searching in her mind, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
"Are you going to build a train?"
I remember that there were steam trains in my previous life, and this big guy in front of me looks quite similar.
"Smart, you guessed it right." Xu Zhe nodded proudly, which made Qin Chuchu very happy.
"Oh my god! That's awesome!"
He ran around several times and frowned again when he came back.
"We don't have any tracks here, are you running this thing on the road?"
Trains have to run on tracks, but there is no track here. Could it be that this thing is a landlubber and can run on land?
"Those things running on the road are cars, but mine is a real train. Who said I don't have tracks?"
Xu Zhe gave Qin Chuchu a speechless look and pointed at the Xin'an railway tracks in the yard.
The steam engine has not been successfully tested yet, so we can only test it on temporary rails. Only after it is successful can we build the tracks.
Otherwise, if the track is built first but the train is not built, the loss will be huge.
Following the direction of the guy's finger, Qin Chuchu discovered that there was an extra circle of tracks in the yard, and she immediately grinned.
"Oh, you're thoughtful."
He looked at the big guy in front of him again and was so excited. If this research is successful, then trains can be used to transport freight and food in the future.
That's much more efficient than a car. He walked around to the back of the engine and pointed to the feed inlet.
"What is this for?"
"Feeding port, coal burning."
"Burning coal? Is there any coal here?"
Qin Chuchu looked around as she spoke, and when she saw the large pile of coal at the corner, she ran over excitedly.
"It really is coal. Where did you get it?"
She pointed at the coal in front of her, her face full of excitement.
I've been to all the hills around here, but I've never seen a coal mine, and I don't know where this stuff comes from.
"It's in Wanbaoshan, not far from the oil field. But they don't call it coal here, they call it stinking stones."
Xu Zhe pointed in the direction of Wanbaoshan. He had discovered the coal mine early in the morning and had heard that many people had been poisoned by coal smoke.
So everyone thinks that coal is poisonous, and basically no one uses it.
"Oh, have you ever tried this steam engine?"
Qin Chuchu nodded, and looked into the feed port again. There was no sign of anything burning.
"No, I was planning to give it a try today, and here you are!"
Xu Zhe pointed to the pile of coal beside him. Someone had just pulled it back yesterday, and the experiment hadn't even started yet, but the boss came here today.
"Then let me help you!" Qin Chuchu's eyes sparkled.
I'm so bored, so I might as well help out here.
"Can you do it?"
"Why can't I do it?"
Qin Chuchu looked at Xu Zhe with dissatisfaction. It’s just burning coal, what’s so difficult about it?
"Don't you think this job is dirty?"
Xu Zhe pointed to the big pile of coal behind him. He had just been working on it for a while and his body was already pitch black.
The boss is dressed so cleanly, but in a short time he will look terrible.
Following the direction of his finger, Qin Chuchu also looked at the large pile of coal and shook her head indifferently.
"It's okay, at worst I can go back and take a shower."
It's better to be a little dirty than to be idle. Otherwise, it would be too uncomfortable to stay here.
Seeing that the boss was so determined, Xu Zhe no longer objected and nodded directly.
"Okay then, I'll go light the fire first."
After saying that, he ran to the coal pile, brought back some broken wood, put it in the stove and lit it. When he saw that the fire was almost lit, he put a few smaller pieces of coal on it.
Under the watchful eyes of several people, the coal soon caught fire.
"Alright, Boss, just watch and add fuel to the fire!"
As soon as Xu Zhe finished speaking, he and Siyue ran to load coal.
Qin Chuchu was responsible for adding coal to the stove. In the blink of an eye, the basket of coal was gone. She waved to April and the others.
"Hurry up, I can't afford it anymore."
"Here they come!" Xu Zhe and Siyue hurriedly picked up a basket and ran back.
He put it in front of Qin Chuchu and hurried back to fill another basket.
In a short while, the basket was used up again, and Qin Chuchu waved her hands anxiously again.
"Hurry up, it's gone again."
Seeing that the two goods had not been loaded yet, he ran over anxiously with a shovel.
The three of them worked together, and after loading the coal, they carried it back and then added more to the kitchen.
It was not until a thick layer of dust covered the furnace that the few of them finally had time to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Oh my god! This is too tiring!"
Qin Chuchu wiped the sweat from her face and held her waist with a grimace.
This is really not an easy job. After working for a while, not only am I sweating all over, but I can't even straighten my back.
Xu Zhe and Siyue were also grimacing with exhaustion, wiping the sweat off their foreheads with handfuls of sweat.
If they paid attention at this moment, they would find that they had all turned into clown faces, but their attention was now focused on the stove in front of them.
Seeing that the food was almost cooked, Xu Zhe hurried to the front.
That’s right, I was standing. Since it was a test subject, I didn’t sit on a chair.
"Boss, all of you come up!"
When she heard that she was asked to come up, Qin Chuchu quickly dropped the shovel and jumped up with Siyue.
Seeing that the big guy began to move forward slowly under the push of steam, not only Xu Zhe was very excited, but even Qin Chuchu and Siyue were grinning.
“Success!”
Although this is simple, it also proves that this thing is feasible.
Xu Zhe grinned and drove a simple steam locomotive, drawing circles on the track in the yard.
Qin Chuchu and Siyue were standing there, grinning from ear to ear, but their happiness didn't last long before they started working again.
"Boss, add more fire! We don't have enough steam!"
