Chapter 169 Discovery of Oil Mine
No matter how uncomfortable Kakarot was at this time, Robben was very comfortable and happy at this time. The progress of the railway construction was gratifying, which relieved Robben, who was not very happy at first, was very relieved. So Robben rarely prepared to take a few days off and return to Thunder City. Because the prospecting team that went out to prospect, part of the 6th was returned. It is said that the harvest was OK, so the great elder urgently recruited Robben to return to the city and discussed together how to start the mine.
Soon Robben came to the House of Lords. After everyone was done, the Great Elder began this issue. After this period of exploration, several minerals have been discovered, including several iron ore and copper ore, and metal ore, which are easy to deal with. The Thunder Tribe had corresponding treatment plans and could be mined normally, mainly because there are several unusual minerals, which need to be decided on how to mine.
First, there is a basin not far from Thunder City, located in the northeast of Thunder City. When I first walked there, the dwarfs with him determined that there was a mine there. After several months of efforts by the prospecting team, they finally determined the type of mineral and the specific location. In this basin, something Robben had never thought of. The barbarians and dwarves called black oil, which was a good ignition-enhancing material. After Robben saw it, he was immediately surprised because this black oil was the oil that Robben was familiar with in his previous life.
Unexpectedly, the first mine gave Robben a huge surprise. You should know that when Robben was idle in college in his previous life, he had been curious about how oil extracted gasoline and diesel, so he learned about this knowledge. Therefore, Robben is very familiar with the entire process of oil refining, diesel and gasoline. Now that there is an oil mine in his hand, it means that there will be a steady stream of diesel, gasoline and kerosene and other petroleum products produced. With these more fully burned fuels, combined with the technology constantly developed by the goblins, it should be very simple to create diesel and gasoline motors. With this motivation, a real sense of aircraft, tanks, cars and many other things can be produced. In that case, the military strength of the Yugoslavia will inevitably increase a lot again.
Thinking of this, Robben is bound to obtain this oil mine. However, the technology of oil extraction in this world is still in its original stage. It is simply to fish manually through containers. This efficiency is too low, and it can only be retrieved from the surface. You must know that oil is a mineral mixed with oil and gas, which is generally at a certain depth on the ground. This point on the surface is only a small part of the sprayed out by its own pressure. Therefore, to mine a large amount of oil, you must first open a well, and then directly extract oil from the depths of the ground. At the same time, oil is composed of a variety of substances. As long as oil is mined, it will basically be accompanied by natural gas. However, people in this world do not know how to use gas, so the accompanying natural gas is destined to be wasted. But it doesn’t matter. Robben will open a laboratory near the oil mine to study the utilization of natural gas and oil-associated biomass.
After thinking about these things, Robben gave a brief report to the elders of the House of Lords. After all, oil is a very profound thing, and no one understands it very well, but as long as you understand something, it is that this thing is very useful. So Robben's current work has changed from supervising railway construction to organizing the mining of oil mines.
Robben, who knew that he could not escape his hard work, had to take the order again. Fortunately, the railway construction has already been on track. Every time a section of the railway is out, the Forward Steam Locomotive will be crushed back and forth to ensure the strong and durable line. It can also be used as an initial inspection. Over such a long time, a feasible construction method has been formed. Therefore, there is no major problem with Robben not being supervised.
After the meeting, Robben drove his own steam car to the goblin again. The old goblin still greeted Robben at the door. Since the last review of the steam locomotive, Robben has not been to the goblin again for half a year. The two met this time and hugged each other warmly. After a warm hug, Robben told the news he had just attended the meeting and the issues he considered. The old goblin was also very excited when he heard that he wanted to mine black oil. As for the difficulties Robben mentioned, the old goblin smiled slightly. Isn’t it just a drilling machine and a pump? These two things have been used to be used by the goblin tribe, but they were manpowered before. Since Robben’s motor and steam engine, they can be completely changed to mechanized with just a little modification. For the goblin technology, there is no problem.
Robben was very excited to get the guarantee of the old goblin. As expected, every time the goblin would not disappoint him. Every time when Robben encountered difficulties, the goblins could always come up with a suitable solution, such as mortars, bee fighters and steam engines. Robben is very glad that he rescued the goblins in one thought, but the rewards he received now are far beyond the original efforts.
Robben, who received the specific information, asked the old goblin how long it took to make a drilling machine and oil pump. The old goblin patted his chest and said that they had stock of these things themselves and only needed appropriate improvements. However, the size of this thing would not be too small. It is best to assemble it in front of the oil mine, which would reduce a lot of pressure for transportation.
Thinking of this, Robben decided to do what the old goblin said, and organized people to go to the oil mine to start mining, assemble drilling machines and oil pumps in the oil mine. At the same time, the old goblin was also very interested in what Robben said, so the two hit it off. The goblin tribe organized a group of people to participate in Robben's mining team, and at the same time established a goblin laboratory near the oil mine to study the collection, storage and application of natural gas.
Then Robben wanted to leave the goblins and organize a mining team, but the old goblin grabbed Robben and said he wanted to tell Robben good news. Robben had to stop and listen to him, you are the old goblins excitedly reported to Robben. Since the last time the goblins drove the bee fighter, they have not stopped the follow-up research on the fighter. After these and two years of research, they finally made another more advanced fighter. This fighter is much larger than the bee fighter, and the load capacity is much larger, and even
The appearance has undergone tremendous changes, and most importantly, after the unremitting efforts of the goblins, they finally got rid of the shackles that fighter jets cannot fly for a long time. The new fighter can fly for a long time at a time. Their flight performance is just a huge size and is not suitable for use on aircraft carriers and airships, because an airship can only be equipped with one new fighter at most, which completely loses the significance of the fighter aircraft carrier. In addition, this kind of fighter jet is expensive and cannot be mass-produced.
