Soon Bai Feng and Xiahou Dun came to the R&D center together.

Xiahou Dun was also quite surprised when he saw the large R&D center guarded by soldiers.

It seems that this R&D center is very important to Bai Feng!

Then Xiahou Dun thought to himself.

"General, steam engines and steam trains are produced here."

Bai Feng led the way in front of Xiahou Dun, while Xiahou Dun introduced the situation of the R&D center.

The craftsmen working in the R&D center all said hello after seeing Bai Feng.

When the craftsmen in Yizhou saw Xiahou Dun, although they were surprised, they also greeted him.

"This is the production line of the steam engine."

Bai Feng pointed at the busy craftsmen and explained to Xiahou Dun with various mechanical devices.

The steam locomotive manufacturing plant is also next door to the steam engine production line plant.

Xiahou Dun looked at the busy steam engine production line and felt very new.

This was the first time he saw how a steam engine was made, and he also understood why Bai Feng went to Yizhou to recruit so many craftsmen.

Although there is already a division of labor and cooperation within the general supervisor, especially in the manufacture of armor and arrows, division of labor and cooperation has begun.

However, the number of craftsmen and the complexity of the steam engine production line still amazes Xiahou Dun.

"There should be at least fifty craftsmen on this steam engine production line."

"And their job content is different, how did Hanzhong Hou let them do this?"

Xiahou Dun then asked Bai Feng curiously.

"Haha, good question from the general."

Then Bai Feng began to explain to Xiahou Dun.

"I split the production steps of the steam engine, and divided these dozens of craftsmen into several small ancestors."

"The craftsmen in each group only need to be responsible for the manufacture of one steam engine part."

"This not only reduces the time spent training craftsmen, but also allows the craftsmen to participate in the production of steam engines as soon as possible."

"It's like making armor and bows and arrows in a prisoner."

After Bai Feng's simple explanation, Xiahou Dun immediately nodded.

After visiting the production line of the steam engine, Bai Feng finally brought Xiahou Dun to the steam locomotive manufacturing plant.

Among the workshops at this time, including Gengzhuzi, there were only six craftsmen working on the transformation of the steam train.

"Just a few people made a steam train?"

Xiahou Dun looked at the steam locomotive that was nearly three meters high, then looked at Geng Zhuzi and the others, and finally asked Bai Feng in surprise.

"Exactly!"

Bai Feng replied to Xiahou Dun, and then brought Xiahou Dun under the steam train.

After introducing Xiahou Dun to Geng Zhuzi and others, Geng Zhuzi and other six craftsmen greeted Xiahou Dun at the same time.

Then everyone began to introduce the situation of the steam train to Xiahou Dun.

"...I'm afraid the general will not see the test run of the steam train today, the improvement is still in progress, and the steam engine has not been installed on the steam train..."

After taking Xiahou Dun to see the improvement of the steam train, Bai Feng said apologetically to Xiahou Dun.

After the last test run of the steam train, Geng Zhuzi believed that the power provided by the existing steam engine to the steam train was insufficient.

So I wanted to make some improvements to the steam engine.

If it weren't for the steam engine being manufactured by Gengzhuzi and people, I'm afraid it would take a lot of time to improve the steam engine.

"Hahaha, if I can see the true face of the steam train today, I have made a worthwhile trip."

Xiahou Dun smiled at Bai Feng when he heard the words.

After seeing the real steam locomotive, Xiahou Dun gave up the idea of ​​buying a steam locomotive.

Because the steam locomotive is tall, big and heavy, Xiahou Dun only saw a steam locomotive in the workshop.

He knew that Bai Feng would not be able to sell the first steam train to himself anyway.

Even if Bai Feng really sold the steam train to himself, Xiahou Dun and a few guards around him would not be able to transport it back to Chengdu at all.

After Bai Feng took Xiahou Dun to watch the steam train, Xiahou Dun, who knew that he could not buy this steam train, remembered the appearance of the steam train in his mind.

Afterwards, he and Bai Feng returned to the Marquis of Hanzhong again.

After returning to the Houfu of Hanzhong, Bai Feng and Xiahou Dun went to the study.

After coming to the study, Xiahou Dun asked Bai Feng:

"Hanzhong Hou, when will this steam train be able to be mass-produced like a steam engine?"

Hearing this, Bai Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"The general is joking. You have just seen it with your own eyes. The manufacture of a steam locomotive is a hundred times more complicated than a steam engine."

"It took three months to make this steam train alone, and it took many craftsmen to make it together."

Bai Feng didn't tell Xiahou Dun the truth here, in order not to let the craftsmen like Geng Zhuzi stand out too much.

After the steam train gallops on the railway, the whole Dawei will realize how important the talents who can make steam trains are.

In order to prevent Gengzhuzi and Li Tiedan from being dug up in the future, Bai Feng must make their presence a little weaker now.

"Originally, I wanted to install this steam engine on a carriage and become a 'car' to replace the carriage!"

Then Bai Feng began to tell Xiahou Dun a reason for making a steam locomotive.

"But after the experiment, it was found that the wooden carriage was too heavy after the steam engine, water and coal were installed, and the carriage could not bear it."

"Later, the iron chariot was replaced, and it was able to run. Who would want to run slower than an ox cart... ah!"

Bai Feng said here, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, as if it was really because of the failure to manufacture "cars".

At this time, listening to Xiahou Dun's description by Bai Feng, he couldn't help but believe it by seven points.

"In the end, I asked the craftsmen to keep improving, and what I got was a steam train."

"But the steam train also has a big problem, that is, although it runs fast, it doesn't need to add water and coal at any time."

"But steam trains are too big and heavy!"

"In the first test drive, I had to lay tracks on the ground, otherwise the wheels would sink into the dirt..."

As Bai Feng spoke, he felt like he was about to believe that he really created a steam locomotive because of his failure to make a car.

"So it is, but Hanzhong Hou's use of steam engines gave me a lot of inspiration."

Xiahou Dun said to Bai Feng after listening.
