For Ying Zheng, coal mining is not that difficult. After all, there is coal in the open air not far from the northeast of Xianyang. It is not even necessary to set up a carbon well, just pick it up with a basket.

The main source of power for the steam engine, in addition to water, is the coal mine!

"The steam engine is a great thing, it can be used to power ships, and it can pull trains and walk on tracks."

"What can be transported by a steam train is something that can't be pulled by dozens or hundreds of carriages!"

Ying Zheng knew very well how powerful the steam engine was.

Even in modern times, the internal combustion engine is widely used, but the steam engine is still the most powerful engine.

The most critical problem is that the power performance of the steam engine is too strong!

Many large warships, even aircraft carriers, are powered by steam engines.

The principle of the nuclear reactor is to use nuclear rods to heat water and turn it into steam, so as to form an extremely powerful power.

Ying Zheng knew very well what the appearance of the steam engine represented to the empire.

This will usher in more robust production for the Empire 0 ........

And once the railway is laid, if you want to conquer the world, the soldiers only need to sit on the train and sleep, and when they wake up, they will go directly to the battlefield. This does not require a labor expedition.

As for the pollution caused by steam engines, this is something that Daqin does not need to consider at all.

There are only more than 2000 million people in the whole world, but they control such a large land area, and re-pollution can pollute it there!

Furthermore, in order to improve their living conditions, the people of the empire would rather be polluted!

However, in reality, this is really difficult to achieve in the empire.

The air of the empire is sweet, and even if it is polluted a little, it will be quickly absorbed by nature.

"The railway from Xianyang to Liaodong Iron Mine must be laid first."

"With the blast furnace for steel training, it is not only easier to produce artillery, but also allows the technical conditions of the empire to support enough to produce rails and trains."

"Although these are all handmade!"

Ying Zheng couldn't help looking at the blacksmiths.

They can cut the stamped iron plate into the desired shape, and then take a hammer and knock the iron plate into the desired shape with a hammer!

This is the processing of this era.

Ying Zheng, however, seems to have seen the era of the first industrial revolution.

In that era, all steel was knocked out bit by bit with a hammer.

Those great craftsmen 5.8 used such a hammer to knock out the most beautiful iron carriage.

And at this point, the craftsmen of the empire can also do it!

This can be seen from the fact that they were able to make a steam engine.

"Steam engines had to be mass-produced, some to make locomotives."

"And others, you can put them on the boat."

"Finally, the widow needed a car powered entirely by a steam engine."

Ying Zheng was extremely serious and issued an order to the Shaofu.

The earliest automobiles were indeed formed because of the internal combustion engine.

There are not no cars that can be powered by steam.

Now Ying Zheng wants the imperial craftsmen to make a steam locomotive with this goal.

This is also a test for the craftsmen of Shaofu! .

Chapter 266 Empire Construction, Build a City Again!

The industrial level of the empire is at its most primitive stage.

Most of them are based on handicrafts.

Today, Ying Zheng wants to transform the empire's industries into light industry or even heavy industry!

When steam appeared, it already represented that the industry had entered a new era.

Whether it was Gongshuoqiu or Xiangliqin, they all wanted to use steam engines instead of water conservancy.

It's just that in this Shanglin Garden, there is a huge water system of the Imperial Canal.

Not only can it meet all the production needs of the empire, but it can also be used for transportation and irrigation.

Therefore, in industry, the demand for steam engines is not too great.

But the trains and warships mentioned by Ying Zheng are the main ways of using steam engines.

After Xiangli Qin heard Ying Zheng's words, he felt even more unheard of.

"The iron and steel car that the king said can move forward with less coal mines is indeed a good way, but if you want to build a railway across the country, I am afraid it will require a lot of manpower and material resources, and it will take a long time."

"Now Liaodong has a large amount of iron ore, which can already meet the production needs of all railway tracks!"

"Now that there is a blast furnace to make 19 steel, there is no problem in laying a railway."
