Chapter 663

Duh!

Kuang Kuang...

with the sound of long sirens, an irresistible steel giant crushed the snow-white steam and galloped along the long railway track. Even with 20 heavy carriages, it still ran faster than the galloping horse.

And as a kind of mechanical creation, the endurance value is full, so we don't know what "rest" is.

Sitting in the last carriage of the steam locomotive, Elvin could not help but feel a sense of accomplishment as he looked at the scene flashing through the glass window.

Olivia, who was wearing a lady's dress and holding his arm, also had twinkling stars in her eyes. Of course, the shock of drawings and objects can't be compared.

And it's an industrial miracle built by a group of mortals without the help of any extraordinary power!

In the past, it took a day and a half to travel between Brunswick, the capital of Georgia, and yuanfan harbor, but it only took six hours to transfer to a steam locomotive.

This is the speed of terror beyond the times that can be achieved by the 32 knots legendary battleship · crown of miracles. However, steam locomotives and railways can not be limited to large-scale reproduction of extraordinary materials, and give full play to the essential characteristics of industrialization.

Time is money, efficiency is life!

The value of it is clear at a glance.

Originally, the construction period of the entire 368 km Georgia corridor was expected to be one year. However, with the help of the influx of Elijah refugees, the construction team adopted the construction scheme of segmented construction, which was completed in only half a year.

The official construction started in early spring, when it was completed and opened to traffic, but it was just in winter.

Before that.

In the spring and autumn airworthiness season, most of the large number of immigrants, mainly Illians, were intercepted in St. Irvine harbor.

With the extensive publicity of the local residents of buffalo and the outstanding achievements made in saving them from the fire and water in Elijah last year, Saint Evan's name is like a saviour in the eyes of the whole Elijah people and immigrants.

For the destitute refugees who have just arrived in the new world, a job that Elvin can provide to support themselves and their families is certainly attractive. After being recruited by Binhai railway company, thousands of railway workers have devoted themselves to the infrastructure construction of "Georgia corridor".

They will also become the backbone of the vigorous development of the railway industry.

Of course, there is also sufficient financial support, thanks to the generosity of several churches.

Although the negotiations with other churches are not as smooth as the "Black Iron Cross Church", in the naked seller market, those who are not willing to lag behind can not get up at all.

Especially after the "Black Iron Cross Church" took the lead, the "Frost Breath" church, the "starry night church" and the "dawn church" who didn't know that Evan's order had destroyed their "Silver Knight" did not hesitate for a long time.

The seven gods church is indeed the biggest dog family in the material world. In the end, each family gave Elvin a 15 year interest free loan equivalent to 500000 Golden Lions, plus 100000 Golden Lions' "copy fee.".

Considering that the interest free loan lasts for 15 years, it is just like giving nothing, because even if the investment return rate is 15%, even if the compound interest is not included, it can be doubled in seven years.

If compound interest is calculated and the annual growth rate is maintained at 15%, the money will increase eight times in 15 years!

With the business of copying ancient scrolls done with several churches, Elvin has made 30% of the deficit back, which is far more than 30% in the long run.

Of course, it would not have been so smooth if it had not been for the status of "Saint" to pull the banner of hupila. At most, a superior wizard and his mother-in-law's strength would not have made the seven gods church obedient, and the fourth level crown and even the concrete image of truth were almost the same.

As for whether church personnel will be besieged by witches who hide in the "broken star islands" and all kinds of deviant and extraordinary people, it is not a matter that Evan needs to care about.

When he received the transfer from the church, [Libra balance sword] was almost ready to jump up and be happier than Elvin, and then he was scolded by Elvin for "rolling rough" and suppressed to the bottom of the box.

If Elvin doesn't have another life and death crisis, it's obviously unlikely to see the light again.

However, Elvin is not worried about his work attitude at all. When he launches the "art of ruin", no matter how cold the holy sword is, it will turn into the most obedient licking dog.

In addition.

The balance sword of Libra will be used sooner or later.

Evan seriously considered for a few days, especially after Macaulay explained that the purchase of a large number of rockets was in response to the follow-up action of the "swearing betrayer", he finally used the saint's own [celestial messenger] to inform the saint of belenus.

After holding the artifact in his hand and understanding the significance it represents, Elvin has found out why the "swearing back" has to fight for it in a way that can be described as tragic with heavy casualties.He also realized that the ownership of the balance sword of Libra would determine a series of strategic plans for the Black Iron Cross Church to cope with the expansion of capital. Wrong intelligence guidance may lead to serious misjudgment of strategic decision, and then lead to unnecessary heavy losses.

It's funny to fight with the air for a long time.

Although there are some small problems in Elvin's body, the big problem of right and wrong is very reliable.

Moreover, different from the "black wing order" which is seeking transformation, the main purpose of the goddess is to prevent the other party from obtaining the artifact, and to delay the time for the "black wing God" to obtain the [capital] clergy. Whether or not she personally controls the artifact is secondary.

Just taking the artifact from the "swearing betrayer" is already a great credit.

Therefore, as Elvin's spoils, the balance sword of Libra also remained in his hands.

In the passenger car.

"Monsieur Marquis, the great industrial creation of steam engine is a miracle beyond the imagination of ordinary people!"

"That's right. I think the sooner the construction plan of the whole colony starts, the better."

"Since it can be built in sections, it's better to start the construction along buffalo and kabushir first."

"To go, we should start Georgia and Charles first."

This steam locomotive, which has been tested by a specially assigned person, is a passenger and freight locomotive. The front 18 cars are freight cars, and the last two cars are passenger cars far away from locomotive noise, smoke and coal ash.

The governors of all the twelve colonies of faletis were invited to experience the epoch-making rapidity of a steam locomotive with Elvin as Lord and Olivia as chief consul.

After the initial shock of starting the steam locomotive, red eared red one by one came to Elvin and asked him to start the whole project of "Binhai Railway" as soon as possible.

In the past, even with the help of northeast trade winds, it took 15 days for a normal merchant ship to sail from the northernmost to the southernmost end of the colony, and the reverse travel time was longer. However, with the help of a 60 km / h steam locomotive, the one-way north-south interchange took only three days.

Not to mention anything else, the efficiency of Commerce and trade can be greatly improved by goods distribution and personnel exchanges alone, which is far from comparable to the slow shipping in the past.

The first train from Georgia to yuanfanling carried a batch of high-quality white oak produced in the mountainous area of northern Georgia.

After Elvin was qualified as a member of the house of Lords and was initially recognized by observers, besides the right to cast guns, the right to build battleships independently also fell into his hands.

And under the guidance of the idea that the Kingdom and hillius will have a war sooner or later, they obtained a large number of orders from the mainland, and the supply destination was the large shipyard located in yuanfanling.

Although the white oak produced in the new world is not as good as the iron oak produced in "Baoshu bay" in the south, it can be used to build class II and class I battleships, and even the "Baoshu" of legendary battleships.

But there's no problem building low-level battleships.

White oak is widely distributed in the eastern part of the northern part of the new world, and the northern part of the abayashi mountains has the best quality. In addition to building sailboats, another very famous use is to build wine barrels.

When the steam locomotive returns, it will bring back the raw cotton that has been seeded by the steam ginning machine.

It is worth mentioning that.

In the past, an anuma slave worked hard every minute and every second for a whole day, and he might not be able to pick up a pound of cotton. In the whole cotton textile industry, ginning is a high cost production process in any case.

The steam ginning machine also came into being, and different from other cotton textile equipment born in the Kingdom, the ginning machine was born in the new world of cotton origin.

Obviously, only when there is demand can there be supply. There is no large area of cotton planting in the mainland. The urgency of demand for cotton ginners is obviously far less than that in the new world.

Designed and manufactured by the "mechanical immortality school", the ginning machine can be powered by water or steam. It can clean 1000 pounds of seed cotton every day, and a labor force can clean more cotton in a day than in previous months.

This also caused a strange phenomenon. Driven by Georgia and yuanfanling, there are more and more cotton textile factories in the new world, but the raw cotton exported to the Kingdom has increased dozens of times in a short time.

In any case, the two Marquises, Georgia and yuanfanling, who were both in the northern cotton belt of the new world, benefited the most. They even received a letter from her majesty commending her achievements.

Elvin, Olivia and her father-in-law have already made their own industrial plans for the three territories, and have made efforts to develop their own characteristics on the premise of having all the basic industries.

Buffalo: a large trading port created by its geographical advantages; traditional industries such as animal husbandry, maple syrup and some fruits, which originally ranked first in the league; fur trade and wine, which have just begun to develop.

Georgia: military industry (steel industry), ceramics, cotton textile industry, medicine.

Yuanfanling: shipping, shipbuilding industry, agriculture represented by sugar and cotton, cotton textile industry, large-scale smuggling.As long as the "Coastal Railway" is used to connect them to form complementary industries, it is not just one plus one equals two. The governors of the colonies were urgent, and even more urgent was Ivan.

"Your Excellency, please take it easy. Next, as the representative of the Marquis, I will talk about the construction and division of interests of the Binhai railway in detail."

Hawkins, who was also walking with Elvin and Olivia and was more and more like a successful man in formal clothes, separated from the crowd. Next to him was Mrs. Edith, the widow of speaker Jerome, who was wearing a capable shirt and trousers as his assistant.

Hawkins, who is in charge of the territory's "Long Island Development Bank", also has to practice what is called "industrial and agricultural scissors difference" through the economic artery of "Coastal Railway".

Of course, the establishment of the railway was a good thing for the whole faletis colony and created the necessary conditions for the realization of economic growth.

However, the relatively slow developing Royal colonies and autonomous colonies were mainly raw material suppliers for the Kingdom, while yuanfanling and Georgia had begun the transformation of steam industry.

When the industrial areas with advanced production technology exchange industrial and agricultural products with agriculture with backward production technology, the price of industrial products is often higher than its own value because of the added value, and the price of agricultural products is often lower than its value, which also shows an open scissors shape on the statistical chart, that is, the scissors difference between industry and agriculture.

By taking advantage of the convenience of the railway, we are bound to grow, but the other colonies of the kingdom may grow by "ten", while Georgia and yuanfanling will grow by "twenty", and the latter will unconsciously take away half of that "ten".

This is the essence of getting rich first!

Although the colonial ownership of the kingdoms along the "Binhai Railway" does not belong to Elvin, there is no boundary for economic activities such as trade in goods.

With the help of steam locomotives, it was enough to integrate the power of all the twelve faletis colonies, and let the Marquis take the lead in taking off. And it's just a matter of making more or less, and other people won't suffer.

Although the three territories of yuanfanling, Georgia and buffalo are not contiguous, under the current measures, the combined influence of the three territories is far more than a whole territory of 460000 square kilometers! Elvin's potential power is also greatly increased!
