Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base
Chapter 86: Return of the Airship
“Slow down, don’t rush!”
In a newly built factory in the Northeast, workers are busy receiving various equipment delivered by the organization.
But what is most eye-catching are the peculiarly shaped trucks of the Municipal Transportation Bureau, which actually use coal as their power source!
The person in charge of the factory looked at these steam-powered trucks with suspicion and couldn't help asking the team leader: "Captain Lin, what is this truck like? Is it easy to drive?"
The team leader patted the truck beside him and replied with a satisfied smile on his face: "Hey, let me tell you, this thing is really great! It's harder than climbing to the sky to get some oil now, but this thing only needs to burn coal to run, and the speed is not slow at all!"
Then he winked mischievously and added with a sly smile: "Your factory can also consider buying a few, it is absolutely worth the money! But I'm afraid you may not be able to buy it..."
Hearing this, the factory director was immediately excited.
After all, strong transportation capabilities are crucial for a machinery factory.
Borrowing vehicles from the city all the time is not a long-term solution. It would be great if we could have our own truck.
So he eagerly asked: "Which country made the car? How did you buy it?"
The team leader smiled mysteriously and proudly revealed: "Hey, this car was purchased directly by our city. We bought 20 cars at one time! I heard that it was independently developed and produced by our country. It is very popular at present. Many places have to queue up to buy it! If your factory wants to buy it, I'm afraid it will be difficult~"
The captain looked at the people in front of him and shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: "Judging from the current situation, it may not be easy for them to successfully buy a car!" But seeing that they really wanted to buy it, he did not say anything to discourage them. Jokes are jokes, but if they really want to buy it, it is not appropriate to tease them.
In fact, the production capacity of automobile manufacturers is not low, but compared with the vast territory of the country, the production volume of a single manufacturer is obviously difficult to meet the demand.
Nowadays, all vehicles produced by automobile factories are purchased and allocated by the organization, and are supplied to municipal and provincial transportation units on a priority basis.
Once these vehicles are put into use, they become a resource shared by the entire city.
As for tracked trucks, they are extremely scarce and almost nowhere to be found on the market. They have all been allocated to the front-line battlefields to play an important role.
However, as the war situation gradually stabilizes, this type of vehicle may reappear on the market at some point in the future.
Not only that, the airships that had been requisitioned by the government have also been returned one after another, and the airship station in Juye County has resumed operations.
Its main service objects are still truck manufacturers and machinery factories, responsible for transporting various types of equipment to all parts of the country.
As for the airship belonging to the factory's own transport team, it is mainly responsible for transporting materials.
Although in actual operation, rail transportation may be more efficient and convenient, given the current limited conditions, we can only rely on airships to fill this gap.
After all, the supply of raw materials is the lifeline of the factory. Without the materials, everything will be reduced to zero.
With the return of the airship, the construction of the residential area has been significantly accelerated.
The project, which was originally progressing slowly, is now showing signs of vitality and the workers are full of energy.
The airship farm worked closely with the machinery factory and successfully modified an airship.
They removed the original transport cabin and added advanced take-off and landing equipment.
Now this modified airship can hover directly above the construction site and efficiently transport all kinds of building materials through take-off and landing equipment, without having to rely on manual carrying.
Such a convenient and practical innovation was greatly appreciated by the factory staff, and they immediately decided to modify a few more airships to meet the needs of many subsequent construction sites.
After all, as the height of floors continues to increase, this kind of airship will be able to play a greater role; for a building that is only three stories high, using an airship is indeed a bit of a waste of resources.
Even without Wang Ze's participation, the factory still maintains a good development trend.
In particular, those professional talents from the base have been employed in the technical department. With the help of Qingling Technology, various technical integration tasks have been carried out in a lively and orderly manner.
However, special light steel still cannot do without Wang Ze. He has to go to the material pool every week. Every time he goes to process materials, Wang Ze looks forward to the early arrival of German scholars, so that they can study how to industrially manufacture these steels.
Since the new steel plant was built, a large amount of light steel products have been sold continuously.
A considerable portion of the light steel was exported to the Soviet Union for use in aircraft manufacturing.
Wang Ze estimated that the Soviet Union might no longer need to use stainless steel to build aircraft in the future.
After this mysterious and rare material came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the Soviet Union and suddenly raised the organization's status in the Soviet Union to a new height.
Faced with such an attractive "treasure", the Soviet Union naturally did not want to be outdone and launched a vigorous imitation campaign.
Unfortunately, however, although the Soviet Union mobilized the elite forces of major universities and research institutions across the country and made every effort, it was never able to make any substantial breakthroughs.
Despite the difficulties in imitation, they still persist in their in-depth exploration of this material and continue to invest resources into it.
For the Soviet leadership, they believed that this key material must be in their own hands. After all, if even an agricultural country could successfully produce it, would the Soviet Union, as a superpower, be helpless?
This attention led the Soviet Union to further increase its support for China's industrial sector, and many aid projects were approved.
However, it is worth noting that, slightly different from historical situations, this time China did not owe a huge debt to the Soviet Union as in the past;
Instead, all support and related equipment from the Soviet side were paid for by the organization using gold and special light steel.
The Soviet Union had no objection to this payment method. Once it tried using special light steel to manufacture aircraft, it would be difficult to give it up.
Because aircraft made of this light steel material are far ahead of competitors made of traditional materials in terms of speed, load capacity and maneuverability, the difference can be said to be worlds apart.
The report submitted by the Sukhoi Design Bureau made this material indispensable. The report stated that as long as the supply of this material could be guaranteed, the aircraft they designed would be one generation ahead of the West.
