【205】 Railway Repair

() "It took half a month to make it so well organized. It seems that things are going very smoothly!"

On a four-storey building in the center of Mingyue Village, Schmidt turned sideways, standing by a window with a large black curtain, looking at a mine closest to the village, smiling slightly.

This high-rise building was erected only in the last two weeks. It is different from the traditional wooden buildings in Mingyue Village. A lot of stones, steel bars and cement are added to it, and the senior leaders of the 'indigenous' live in it. , there are 'indigenous' soldiers guarding outside and patrolling day and night. Even Pulitzer can't enter at will without being notified.

The employees of the consortium all know that this tall building is a symbol of the indigenous forces in Mingyue Village!The first height in the village means that the natives are above Pulitzer and others!

"Hey, with the help of Longganzi's development and construction team, plus Pulitzer's drive to work like a cow and horses, can things not go well?" Standing beside Schmidt was Lumber, he stroked his chin, and the laughter in his mouth still maintained the style he had when talking with Pulitzer. . .

Uncle Long didn't stay in Mingyue Village every day, this time, he and Schmidt rushed over from Guangming Village.They didn't have time to come over to check the development of Mingyue Village until they arranged for the employees of the [-] consortium who were 'going north'.

"Oh, your smirk is really harsh, can you restrain yourself? Long Bo, you said those huts built next to the mine... would these Yankees really believe that they are 'feed processing plants'?" Shi Mitt's eyes fell on the periphery of the mine in the distance. In addition to a mysterious area surrounded by a towering wall, there are three small sheds, surrounded by the mine, which is very eye-catching.In the several mines in the distance, each mine is equipped with at least three sheds around it.

"Don't they believe it?"

Long Bo narrowed his eyes.The smile showed great pride: "Anyone who goes in to check will only find that there is only one big iron box in the shed! One entrance of the big iron box is to pour ore waste, and the other exit is for us to fill in advance. The 'feed' that went in! Hoho, who would have thought that this big piece of pure iron is just for the purpose of deceiving people, and underneath that is laid a big iron pipe to receive steel fish?"

Yes, no one would think that the function of these huts is not to produce the so-called 'nightmare horse feed' at all, its real purpose is to store the 'queen fish' in the steel fish! !

The queen fish can be used to attract guard fish that have collected metal elements. Longbo and Pulitzer have reached the so-called three conditions of cooperation. The ultimate goal is to 'stock' steel steel fish under the noses of these shareholders. 'Steal' the metal elements in the ore in the hard-working mine!

Under each shed, large-caliber steel pipes have been buried.One end of the steel pipe is connected to the big iron box, and the steel queen fish is placed in the iron box.And the other end is open, buried deep in the hard surface, no matter how hard the ground is, as long as the steel queen fish exists here and reveals its breath, those steel guard fish that have sucked up the ore will be happy. It will break through rocks and dirt and drill into iron pipes.It was finally collected by the big iron box.

At this moment, what Long Bo's men need to do is to check the big iron box every day.If there are steel guard fish inside, then fish them out, and transport them to the enclosed 'mysterious area' along with the 'feed', and the staff inside will remove the metal elements that the steel fish cannot absorb by themselves ( Liquid) squeezed out, such a reincarnation completed an unnoticed 'stealing' of the mine!

Schmidt smiled and shook his head.I don't know whether he is admiring Uncle Long's ingenious plan of 'stealing', or he is sighing for those shareholders who have made their own wedding dresses for nothing: "Hehe, steel steel fish, the magical species invented by Master Long, how wonderful! They dream There is no way to guess! These cute 'thieves'. They are operating right under their noses, but they can't be seen, wow, this feeling is so good!"

Long Bo smiled and nodded, with self-indulgence in his eyes. Obviously, he was also very proud of himself for being able to complete the "stealing layout of steel steel fish" so beautifully: "Schmidt, let's not talk about Pulitzer people, The few of them were fascinated by Wang Botao's medicine powder... but about the railway laying, do you have any latest plans? Well, I always feel that it may not be the right decision for the young master to introduce the railway to Alaska!"

Long Bo has been the head of the Executive Yuan for so long, he has learned a lot about various issues, and he has dealt with them a lot, and he will more or less form his own opinions. The 'strategy of bringing railroads to Alaska' was contested.

In Long Bo's mind, Alaska is now an acre of land in Huaxia Town. It is best to build walls around this enclave... Now it is hard to get the various shareholders who bought the mineral development rights , and now it is time to lay the railway, isn't this equivalent to making a dagger yourself and handing out the handle for others to poke?

Without railways, neither the United States nor the international powers can transport elite soldiers and advanced weapons in batches, so in the event of a conflict, the Dragon Scale Army can take advantage of the home field and use the familiar The terrain and sturdy cavalry will wipe out the enemies who dare to invade!

And with the railway, all artillery and heavy machine guns can be transported in, and the threat to the Dragon Scale Army is not ordinary!

Therefore, until now, Lumber is still worried about Alaska's permission to build a railway.

Schmidt smiled, picked up a black and white gentleman's stick and shook it: "Uncle Long, your worries are justified! But it's too limited, you have to let go of your thoughts...Master Long's ambition is not only It is a piece of Alaska, you and I are both members of the Dragon Scale Party, his ambition is to let all the sons and daughters of China, of course I am now a part of it, stand in the forest of the nations of the world, so that wherever his will goes, there is nothing No! So, Huaxia Town must not be closed and self-defense, and the introduction of railways will allow us to communicate well with the outside world. The simplest benefit is that advanced technology and high-end talents from outside can be brought in! Besides, Now the governor of Alaska is from our side, as long as there is no big change, do you still have to worry about Huaxia Town being taken away by others? In your words, this is unfounded worry!"

Uncle Long opened his mouth and was speechless. He snorted and shook his head dejectedly: Yes, just managing the current Huaxia Town has almost squeezed out my few brains. develop.Indeed, as Schmidt said, high-level talents and advanced technology must be introduced!Otherwise, just waiting for those dolls who bravely enter the university to become useful, when will we have to wait? !

Ten days ago, Delfino, who had obtained the right to build the railway, had laid the first sleeper on a plain [-] kilometers north of the Denali Mountains, signifying that Alaska had officially entered the era of railways.

This railway commencement ceremony has also been reported to the government of Alaska led by Khabarovsk, with Wen Siping's mediation.I believe that the official approval from the state capital is only a matter of time.

In peaceful times, legality is the key!

Delfino's emotional intelligence is not high, but the technology of laying the railway under his hands is top-notch. It has only been ten days, and the laying project called "Dingxin Railway" has been [-]% completed one.

Dingxin Railway, from the design blueprint, is to connect the Denali Mountains and a base village along the southern line of Huaxia Town.The total length is 240 kilometers, and 24 kilometers have been completed in ten days.This efficiency is already quite high, and it can even be called amazing speed!

And according to Delfino's team's estimation, when the next batch of railway workers and materials arrive, this speed will increase by about [-]%!

There is no way, a large number of railway workers and heavy steel need to be transported by large ships, and the port of Huaxia Town is now in the hands of the Dragon Scale Army.In principle, it is not open to the outside world, so although Delfino was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling, he could only wait patiently.

After all, the Carnegie Group and the Schmidt Company are not so sweet on the surface.Delfino's application to use the port on the Yukon River has to go through the administrative approval process.

Of course, when the various mining areas above Alaska develop in an all-round way, raw materials such as steel can be obtained by refining iron ore on the spot. At that time, the laying of the entire railway will speed up again.

Delfino still has a series of construction plans in his hands: after the reform, there will be innovation, and after the innovation, there will be new... There are so many!

If the construction of the Dingxin Railway is completed, Huaxia Town will truly connect with Anchorage, a large port affiliated to the US government. At that time, the second capital invasion of major financial groups such as Morgan will be inevitable, which also means that Huaxia Town will undergo a greater test.

The laying of the railway has both advantages and disadvantages, and risks and profits coexist. At that time, it depends on how the Dragon Scale Army responds and whether Huaxia Town's administrative measures are correct!If all goes well, this second capital intrusion will bring Huaxia Town another take-off!

"Schmidt, I always feel that Delfino is not very reliable, and his boss Andrew Carnegie is a generation of heroes. He verbally said that he took refuge in the young master, but how credible is this statement? The reliability is really hard to predict!" Uncle Long frowned slightly, and said worriedly: "Hmph, to put it bluntly, unless he has a marriage relationship with the young master, or he himself joins the Dragon Scale Party, otherwise I will definitely not I will let go of my guard against him!"

After hearing Uncle Long's words, Schmidt almost threw his gentleman's stick out of the window: Marriage relationship?Well, it seems that Andrew Carnegie has an illegitimate daughter named Seagate?But she seems to be only six or seven years old this year, so do you want to plan on the six or seven-year-old little girl, Uncle Long?

Thinking of these bad things, Schmidt couldn't help but shivered violently.

As for letting Andrew Carnegie join the Dragon Scale Party, Schmidt thinks this proposal is more suggestive. As long as Long Hao comes back, let him have a good talk with Andrew, and pull the steel king into the Dragon Scale Party. Party, it can be expected!

"So, I think we still fulfill the promise we made to Pulitzer Morgan..." Long Bo said leisurely, "Give him a section of railway to repair, and a section of railway that is not very important... as long as it can be given to Delphi It’s enough to let those people put pressure on them, so that they don’t get too proud and can’t lose their tails! Schmidt, don’t shake your head in a hurry, I know that with the medicine powder of that kid Wang Botao, we are still afraid that Pulitzer and others will dig it out. God?"

"That medicinal powder, hey, it's really... tsk tsk, the trick of the devil!"

Schmidt shuddered at the thought of the terrible situation he had recently seen in Pulitzer's drug addiction.He hurriedly nodded and said: "Uncle Long, your suggestion is good. Even though Pulitzer and others are completely under our control now, the right to build railways is the most important thing for those big bosses in the Morgan Consortium headquarters. As long as Pulitzer presides over As soon as the news of the ground-breaking construction of the railroad is spread back, I believe that Pulitzer's leading position here in Alaska will be more stable, lest one day he will be suddenly called back by the family. Then our efforts will be in vain!"

The drug powder that Li Bixie sent back was indeed terrifying. The three of Pulitzer had worked hard in the first three days and were ready to reorganize the rivers and mountains and fight Schmidt again. But on the third day, the drug powder As soon as the drug addiction broke out, the three of them burst into tears and snot, curled up on the ground and twitched, as if thousands of ants were crawling and biting all over their bodies, and they seemed to be clamped all over and stuffed into hundreds of meters of deep water.They can't breathe, the feeling of almost drowning, they have to taste it three or four times every hour, it's really worse than death!

And just at this time, Wang Botao, representing Schmidt, appeared with a smile on his face, and fed the drug powder to Pulitzer and the three of them.Compared with the hellish torture before, they immediately surrendered to Wang Botao's drug fans.As long as Wang Botao gives them drug fans for a certain period of time, he can do whatever he wants them to do. There is no moral bottom line at all.

As for the idea of ​​revenge against Schmidt, the Pulitzer trio, who were controlled by drug fans, had long since discarded this unrealistic and ridiculous idea.

Look, this genius doctor Wang is obviously Schmidt's man.And those big tile vats that everyone soaked last time are obviously traps set by Schmidt, in order to make the three of us addicted.Now that our lives are in the hands of each other, what kind of revenge is there... The three of Pulitzer's thoughts are very simple now, as long as they don't experience those painful feelings that they can't live but can't die.In addition, the fluttering yuxian taste caused by inhaling drug powder is really good. At least three days after inhaling, they can guarantee that they will have plenty of energy, and... even Ye Yu Jiunv can survive with a golden gun. The other party was as soft as mud, begging for mercy.

This additional function actually made Wang Botao dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the addictive drug fan researched by the young master and Li Bixi would have such benefits.

After the three Pulitzers completely succumbed to drug fans, the only worry in their hearts was to pray that Uncle Lun would not make things difficult for Schmidt, otherwise, they really didn't know which side to fall in the middle.

This is the current situation of the Pulitzer trio. They are controlled by drug fans. They are no longer loyal leaders representing the interests of their respective consortiums, nor are they Avengers who are always thinking about turning over. Their only purpose is to pass on Huaxia Town The will to ensure the stability of subordinates, stable mine surveying, mining, and mining, and stably create favorable conditions for the survival and growth of Ganggangyu.

"It's better not to conflict with the construction of the railway, so..."

Schmidt frowned and thought about it, then suddenly smiled, walked to the wall, and tapped on a hanging map of Alaska: "Here, let Pulitzer's railway team go here, as long as we dig well, we will follow up." Can those small shareholders be allowed to invest in and participate in the shares!"

Long Bo raised his eyes, was stunned for a moment, but then smiled: "Oh, this place is good, one is east and the other is south, and it is difficult for the two sides to meet, and if this road is opened up, Uncle Zhou will be the one. It will be much more convenient for the guy to go back to Huaxia Town! Schmidt, thank you for thinking of it!"

It turns out that that place refers to nothing else, but the Rocky Mountains on the border between Alaska and Canada!

The Rocky Mountains, stretching and vast, are the backbone of the American Cordillera Mountains in North America. They are composed of many small mountains, so they are also called the "backbone" of North America.It originated in Alaska, runs through Canada, the United States, and finally Mexico, with a total length of more than 4500 kilometers. The territory is vast and lacks vegetation. Its name comes from an Indian tribe name.

In this era, the Rocky Mountains can be said to be a natural barrier across Alaska and Canada.

Schmidt asked Pulitzer to build a railway there, which is no less difficult than building a Bronze Age in primitive tribes. This is completely a problem for the Morgan consortium.In terms of construction cost alone, the cost of building a one-kilometer railway in the Rocky Mountains is at least ten times that of the Dingxin Railway!

Schmidt laughed and said, "That's right, it's the Rocky Mountains. Didn't Pulitzer previously claim that his railway construction technology was much better than that of the Carnegie Group? Then, of course, such a difficult construction task must be entrusted to Otherwise, how could he demonstrate the superiority of the Morgan Consortium in terms of technology and financial resources!"

Long Bo also understood it, and said with a smile: "That's true. The altitude of the Rocky Mountains is not low, and there are many places where there are fast-moving rivers passing by... It is necessary to climb slopes and build bridges. I heard that some cross-mountain railways are still To open up the mountains, this project is not a small one, and if it is completed, it will be enough to make the Morgan consortium hurt!"

"It's not enough to hurt the muscles and bones. The Morgan consortium is a super consortium after all! Hahaha!" Schmidt also laughed: "But it's inevitable to bleed it!" (To be continued.)
