Release that Witch

The entire refining area, whether it is transporting unloading or collecting materials, uses steam power instead of manpower as much as possible. The degree of mechanization is the highest in the winter city.

Because it needs to ingest a large amount of coal and crude oil, the factory overlooks a huge rectangular square from above, and the north end faces the Chishui River, which is both a dedicated dock and a coal yard. Several conveyor belts linked to the steam engine continuously transport coal to the boiler room, and the regular black lines running in parallel form a sharp contrast with the surrounding gray cement hardened floor.

The other end of the square is used to store the seaborne oil from the shoal. The track and the trailers make up the picture of this half. When the coal is lacking, the boiler room can also directly use the unrefined oil as the burning material.

The oil storage warehouse on the west side of the fractionation tower has been built in half. The fortress-like concrete silo is lined up. Its rough shape is incompatible with the residential buildings on the other side of the river, but it has an indescribable beauty. At the same time, Roland knows that its technical content is not low at all, pressure relief valves, inspection windows, ducts, anti-static equipment... From the construction details to the use of regulations, without the accumulation of chemical plants before, it is impossible to be so smooth.

He was very pleased that he only made a final review and approval of the overall plan. The intermediate design process was completed by the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Chemical Industry. Obviously, mines, kiln areas and other projects have allowed them to accumulate a lot of experience and boldly apply them to new projects. Since there is no uniform industry standard in this era, from the elevator to the traction winch, each machine needs to determine the parameters on site and then submit it to the factory for processing and assembly. Without basic engineering literacy and literacy levels, it is difficult to achieve communication between the two sides.

After two years of compulsory promotion, universal education has gradually shown results.

As the temperature of the boiler rises, the oil heated to the steam state floods into the fractionation tower – this can be seen by the snow on the tower as a vapor. At this moment, the north wind has basically subsided, leaving only the snow falling slowly, but the people who came to visit did not move. They stared at this beautiful metal tower, exhaled breath and various mechanical sprays on the square. The steam echoed in the opposite direction. In the cold winter when the sun was not seen, a warmth was formed that did not fall into the wind.

......

"It's beautiful." Itis stood on the steel bridge and murmured.

It is almost a few miles away from the refining area, so the figures are much sparse, and occasionally there are rushing passers-by, basically wanting to go to the tower, in addition to witnessing the birth of another novelty, it is also to witness the majesty of the king. one side. However, when passing by the North Pearl, most people will involuntarily look at her and the people on her side - no doubt in their eyes, the two women standing in the snow, there are people The beauty of the heart.

Isn't this a chimney? Where is the beauty? Cole’s heart groaned, but he couldn’t say it on his mouth. “Why do you want to see it, why not join the City Hall? Barov’s adults clearly arranged a better position, and they also...”

Although the terrain is high and the horizon is wide, it is not really true because of the long distance. More importantly, this is a good opportunity to get in touch with each other. It doesn't matter what you see. All the city hall officials are gathered together, and the meaning is not about watching. The idea of ​​changing to the aristocratic era is like a banquet. The focus is definitely not on the food you eat, but on the people you talk to and the new partners you have met.

For the sister who is very good at communication, she can't do it without knowing it. It is obvious that he is tempered in the city hall. This opportunity is deliberately absent. Sometimes he really doesn't understand what the other person's head is thinking. what.

However, with a slight glimpse of Itis, Cole closed his mouth.

"Of course it is for you, my dear brother," she whispered softly. "Do you really want to appear in front of other officials as you are now?"

Wait, this is not because of your request!

I was wearing the clothes at home, and I didn't expect to be forced to wear them. If I was caught by an acquaintance, I would have to jump from the bridge.

Ah! I blame myself for being bored. When I took my sister’s clothes up and down, I was bumped into the old sister who suddenly came back, causing the handle to fall, otherwise how could he easily compromise.

Cole was trying to express his protest a little, and there was a whistling whistle behind him.

He suddenly felt a hot face, subconsciously pulling the collar and trying to bury his head.

“Hey, this is not the right way to deal with it.”

A hand against his chin made him have to look up again.

Then Cole saw that the North Pearl returned and flicked toward the passer-by—the coldness in his eyes that refused to be thousands of miles away, and he couldn’t help but shudder. I saw that the other party stepped back two steps, no longer dare to swear, and quickly walked away from her line of sight.

"Do you understand?" Itis shrugged. "This is also a test for you."

"...If it's normal dressing, you won't encounter this kind of thing at all," Cole whispered.

"But if you want to participate in the political affairs, there will be something like this irresistible thing. The only thing you can do is to accept it and try to control it." She paused. "Do you think that at that time? When Fei Ke entered the north, I was willing to smile and greet him. Everything in the world has different faces. The key lies in which angle you look at it. Besides, you can't help but try my clothes. I am actually looking forward to it. So, right?"

Cole couldn't help but see that her sister could always say something that was totally unreasonable. At this time, choosing to argue strongly would only be a failure. The correct approach was only silent.

As for the last sentence, he will never admit it!

However, what is the beauty she said before, is it because of the difference in angle?

After staggering the topic and asking the doubts in his heart, Cole clearly caught a rosy on the other's cheek.

"Do you remember what winter in Yongyue City is like?"

"Hey..." He glimpsed a little, and a series of pictures suddenly appeared in his mind, but there were few cities in it. Most of the images were stuck in the warm fireplace, ale and dinner. The basics that can be thought of are all indoors. Scenes. After a while, he was not sure, "Looks more... quiet?"

"It’s dead, it’s like the whole earth is frozen.” Itis looked at the tower. “I always thought that it was the normal winter, but now it seems that this is not the case.” She spit out white Qi, "What do you see now? The earth is breathing, and these fogs are the best proof that it is still active."

"I do not quite understand."

"This proves that nature can be changed by people," Beidi Pearl said in a word, "People don't need to look at the sky to live, nor do they have to follow the rules between heaven and earth. It is suppressed because of its own weakness. After a certain degree, we can even transform the world - isn't this kind of power not beautiful enough?"

But Cole saw another, more beautiful thing.

The woman who said these words is like an inexplicable light, and the long blue hair is facing the snow and undulating, better than any natural scenery. That rosy is to reduce the sharpness of the past, making the white face of the white enamel become very vivid.

There was a strong impulse in his heart—he wanted to know what the world in the eyes of Isis Kant looked like?

......

"Out and out!"

With the cheers near Tower 1, the crowd gradually began to stir up.

"What happened?"

"I heard that it seems to be oil!"

"Used to fry bread?"

"Where can it be, there is coal in the field, not fat."

"What is it out of it? Since it is what you want, it must be of great significance."

"So we can celebrate?"

"Yes, long live!"

"Long live your majesty!"

Soon more people joined the cheers, even if they were completely unclear about the meaning of the fractionation tower, and did not hinder sharing this happiness at the moment.

The waves of the rumbling sounds spread out. In just a few minutes, the entire refining area boiled. Under such a situation, the formidable demon moon seemed to have faded away from the old colors.

Looking at the black and white columns of smoke rising from the banks of the river, and the silver towers flickering in the smoke and snowflakes, Roland's heart is full of unspeakable sense of accomplishment.

If the smoke on the north **** of the mountain represents the coal-iron composite and the results of the first industrial revolution, then the pillar of smoke here means a new era is coming.
