Chapter 1201 Electric Power Construction

If there is no accident, the first city of his Wanjie civilization to popularize electricity will soon be born.

Recently, Luo Ji has been very interested in this matter, unable to extricate himself.

"Your Majesty, the thermal generators at the Academy of Science and Technology are all ready to be put in place."

Ye Hua, who was in charge of this matter, immediately reported the latest progress to Luo Ji.

"What about the circuit design diagram in the city? Have you got the circuit design diagram?"

Hearing the report, Luo Ji asked quickly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to the news sent by the Electric Power Bureau this morning, the power routes of the No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 areas in the city have been confirmed, and the remaining areas are still being confirmed step by step."

Obviously, this power bureau is a new department that Luo Ji has just established in recent months. Generally, it is responsible for the electrical system in the city and all related matters.

As for the power station, Luo Ji built it on the outskirts of the city, considering various circumstances.

After all, if a factory with so many high-power thermal generators is built in the city, it may cause huge harm in case of any unexpected situation.

At the same time, when the thermal power generator is working, a large amount of smoke and exhaust gas is generated, which will also have an impact on the urban environment.

Therefore, it can be said that it is the most sensible choice to place the power station outside the city.

Luo Ji was quite satisfied with the answer given by Ye Hua.

Immediately, only to hear him ask again...

"What about the street lights? Have all the street lights that are going to be set up have been manufactured yet?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the manufacture of street lamps has been fully handed over to Goblin Technology. At present, the first and second batch of street lamps have been sent to the Electricity Bureau, and they are basically waiting for the official start of construction."

"very good."

Hearing this, Luo Ji nodded in satisfaction.

"Then, in order, start installing street lights and circuits in areas 1 and 2."

"Yes."

In order to make the people accept a series of new things like 'electricity' and 'electric light' as soon as possible, Luo Ji undoubtedly used the influence of newspapers a little.

In recent days, news about out-of-town power stations and power systems has dominated newspaper headlines and caused quite a bit of buzz.

Obviously, the people are also very interested in this new thing. After all, according to the reports in the newspapers, once the power system is popularized, the thing called "electric light" will completely replace the candles and oil lamps in their lives.

This also means that they will no longer need to buy consumables such as candles and lamp oil, and instead pay a fee called "electricity bill". For the people, the changes are still quite big.

On both sides of the street, the street lights that began to be constructed have attracted a lot of onlookers from pedestrians.

Before introducing electric lights to each household, Luo Ji chose to install street lights first. In this way, the public can be most intuitively aware of the benefits brought by electric lights and electricity.

Placing street lights in an area is not a big project that takes a lot of time. As long as you move a little bit neatly, you can complete the installation project in an area in a short time. In comparison, the subsequent circuit pulling and vertical poles are very important for construction. For the team, it's more troublesome.

Because they have to get all the wires to avoid all the buildings perfectly without disturbing pedestrians, and then all the way to the power station outside the city.

During this period, they also had to consider the subsequent circuit arrangement, so that in the end, all kinds of wires in the whole city would be tangled up in a mess.

The sun was sinking in the west and the sky was getting darker. This night, a certain area of ​​Mirror City was far more lively than usual.

Almost the whole area was packed with people who came to see the new product.

Listening to the members of the patrol team responsible for maintaining order at the scene at that time, the earliest people who came at that time were already standing here in the morning.

Those who came late can't even squeeze in at the entrance of the block, because it's already full of people.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and as night fell, it was completely unprepared. The street lights on both sides of the street turned into one after several flashes, causing everyone in the area at that time to exclaim. .

The newspaper reporter, who had already set up a camera, quickly took a picture of this crucial scene.

At this moment, in this area, the brightness brought by the lights is much stronger than those of the previous fuel lamps, which brought a huge impact to the people who came to watch.

As if it was some kind of special ceremony, for a week, almost every night, people gathered here, just to see the moment when the street light was on, and exclaimed for this, lamenting the magic of technology. .

After looking at the report and the latest issue of the news paper, even Luo Ji himself was stunned for a moment. The reaction of the people even exceeded his expectations.

He did have thought that the appearance of electrical appliances would completely change people's lives.

But now it's just a light bulb, isn't it? The reaction is so big?

What Luo Ji didn't know, however, was that the reason why he was so calm was because he knew it already in his heart, and he knew what 'light' and 'electricity' were.

Others are different. Many of them have lived in a world without electric lights for most of their lives, or even their entire lives, in a world where they can only bring a little light through candles and oil lamps after dark.

And now, they suddenly saw such a 'bright' night, and it is conceivable how huge the impact that moment had on them.

At this moment, the street lamp project can be said to be strongly welcomed by all the people, and the implementation is very smooth.

In Mirror City, one after another area was soon completed one after another.

On the streets, a large number of street lights began to brighten the night in Mirror City, and even brought the night market economy to a large extent.

Originally, after nightfall, no later than nine o'clock, or even more than eight o'clock, the number of pedestrians on the street will begin to decrease significantly, and recently, those areas where street lights have been put into use are often at ninety o'clock. Zhong, there are still people coming and going on the street.

Even with those stores on both sides of the street, they all delayed their closing time to eleven or twelve in the evening, and started night business.

There was even one time when Luo Ji specially brought two bodyguards, Wang Kai and Luo Yunxi, and took advantage of the darkness to go out and have a good experience.

I have to say that at this time, the night in Mirror City has brought a bit of a modern urban atmosphere.

For a while, Luo Ji himself felt very sighed, and at the same time, he further felt the progress of the times!
