Chapter 340 Punishing profiteers
Under Purficott’s personal attention, the construction of the energy tower progressed very smoothly.
The construction of each parts factory was successfully completed, and there were no problems with the recruitment and training of workers. Although some people with ulterior motives mixed in and tried to create big things such as labor movements to open the eyes of Purficott.
But for Purficott, who understands the labor movement and can even write a program for the labor movement, this little news is not enough to pass her leisure time.
So those who try to cause trouble in this matter basically become enrichment in the prison cells, adding a lot of experience to the prisoners who stay later.
During the construction process, this brand-new design naturally left the builders scratching their heads. They had never seen such a complex structure before.
After all, it was considered a big project in the 21st century in the original world. It was indeed a bit difficult for the workers in the 18th century.
But Purficott did not give them any room to refuse, but forcefully carried out the entire construction project.
Of course, she was not reckless, but split all the design drawings into details that these workers could understand and understand, and then let them only be responsible for this part.
In this way, Purficott divided the construction team into several groups, each group was only responsible for the part of the construction they needed to build, so that they could concentrate on understanding what they needed to build. The content of work that needs to be dealt with accordingly improves their construction qualification rate.
Of course, there is also an efficiency issue in doing so. After all, group construction is group construction, but each group needs to spend more time to become familiar with and understand its own work content, which undoubtedly affects the construction progress to some extent.
But this did not stump Purficott. Since the construction time of a single construction unit has been extended, it would be better to increase the number of construction units that start work at the same time.
She implemented a three-shift system at the energy tower construction site, dividing the 24-hour work day into three parts. Each construction team needs to spend six hours a day to familiarize themselves with and understand themselves. Today's construction content, then spend eight hours working, the remaining eight hours rest, and the other two hours are for them to eat.
Three shifts, one group will switch to another group after work, ensuring that workers are working 24 hours a day.
Coupled with Perfectcote's strong coordination ability, the construction process on the construction site became very smooth and smooth, and the overall construction progress was indeed not slow at all.
Although the premise of all this is that construction costs and human resource investment far exceed normal circumstances, as well as the decisive role played by Perficott, a powerful overall manager.
Under such circumstances, this huge energy tower gradually began to take shape.
The core part of the energy tower is underground. The main part is a circulation device that can accommodate more than 100,000 tons of cooling water. It consists of six sets of cooling circulation systems with a processing capacity of 6,000 tons per hour and a huge water tank. composition.
The water tank is responsible for storing the circulating water that has released heat and cooled down after the heat dissipation cycle. This part of the circulating water will be re-injected into the ground by twelve pressurized pumps and reheated by the geothermal heat in the ground.
The heated hot water will be pumped out from the ground through another twelve water pumps, and then transported to six sets of cooling circulation systems for decompression, gasification, heat dissipation, pressure and rapid condensation, and back to liquid water. After the status returns to the water tank.
It will then be injected into the ground again, forming a reciprocating cycle.
Giant water tanks used to store water are the best to make. After all, although pressure vessels are difficult for this world, they are not that difficult to build.
Especially underground, using strata to stabilize pressure is also a feasible method. However, for safety reasons, Purficott did not build the water storage tank into a pressure vessel, but designed it as an open water tank. Just because at least tens of thousands of tons of circulating water are stored, the pressure at the bottom of the water tank is still Very amazing.
So for the construction of the pool, Perficott devoted a lot of attention. He not only personally adjusted and improved the cement formula used in the construction, but also proposed many ways to improve the load-bearing capacity of the concrete structure. new design.
Compared with these, the cooling circulation system used to release heat is somewhat complicated, because the radiator required is not so easy to manufacture.
“No, the sealing is not up to standard, take it back and redo it.” Purficott checked the radiator accessories sent again, and after confirming that the sealing did not meet her requirements, she decided not to do it again. Let these people be dragged away without mercy.
Looking at the faint impatience on the face of the merchant who came to deliver the goods, Purficott warned with a cold expression: "I will only give you one last chance. If the goods delivered next time are not If you don't meet the standard, then I will make you into a new part.
Believe me, even if I make you into a radiator, I can ensure that you are alive and have a body that is ten times more sensitive than you are now. Senses, how will you feel when the hot water releases heat in the radiator? I don’t need to remind you more, right?”
As a manufacturer of radiators, this supplier clearly knows, The self-made radiator needs to withstand working temperatures as high as 150°C. At this temperature, a person will be cooked in just a few minutes.
Even just the escaping steam can burn people.
They had previously conducted tests during production, and one worker accidentally burned half of his body off.
If Purficott made a radiator and was still alive, and his senses were amplified ten times...
The supplier's face turned green, he didn't want to have to do it every day Experience what it feels like to be steamed.
So he hurriedly assured Purficott: "There won't be a next time! Please rest assured that I will do my best to send you qualified accessories!"
After saying that, he let people drag the radiator accessories he sent as if there was a dog chasing him, and ran away as fast as possible.
Looking at the supplier running away, Purficott touched his nose, then turned to look at the ground cooling structure of the energy tower that had begun to take shape behind him, with half of the body integrated into it. The humanoid relief in the metal shell is quite eye-catching.
Because this relief is alive and emits miserable wails all the time, it is very similar to a horrific punishment called the Bronze Bull in ancient times.
This is a profiteer who did not supply goods according to Purficott's requirements and even made a fool of himself in front of her.
It is precisely because of handling such a typical case that those suppliers dare not play tricks in order to avoid following in its footsteps.
"Sure enough, killing chickens to scare monkeys is effective." Purficott nodded with satisfaction. Although this thing looks quite scary, the effect is really good.
