Chapter 441: Completed Ceremony (II)

The heavy rain that came as scheduled was a big test for Ye Tao. Ye Tao was mainly responsible for Gondor's concept design and general appearance design. Gondor's many unique urban functions, especially when it was first designed, it left room for burying various power pipelines. It was naturally Ye Tao's idea, but these functional designs were finally completed by a huge design team including Guan Haishan. No one has really done such a complex project, especially when designing drainage pipes without detailed meteorological data. Although a lot of spares were left, everyone was still a little unsure.

After all, Ye Tao was not from urban planning. Although he knew that the section was like an inverted egg, the bottom flow rate of brick pipes was relatively fast, which could partially solve the problem of pipeline silt. Although he tried his best to get out all the good texts about urban planning I had watched before, he chose the characteristics that might be used to add to the design and construction of Gondor. The gorgeous Minas Tyrias in "The Lord of the Rings" is naturally the first reference in aesthetic design, but the ground part refers to more cities. The underground part is much more referenced by Paris's neat and orderly and beautiful

Municipal Engineering Design. Since a city is built from scratch, Gondor is very limited. For example, the underground part is to dig the ground directly and dig deep enough to complete all underground projects before the ground construction is started. This part of the cost accounts for one-third of the entire construction cost. Ye Tao really doesn't want the underground project that has consumed so much effort to have problems. If there is any problem, an imperfect Gondor is still a small matter. What is important is that it will seriously affect the ongoing survey and construction of the new capital, which will make everyone less confident about this new urban planning system.

However, Gondor's performance was extremely eye-catching. Gondor had a bell tower on the mountain part, and in the ground part, there was a bell tower in each of the four directions of the city. Every morning, the distant sounds that were scheduled on time replaced the sunlight of the stormy season in the morning and evening, becoming the criterion for the entire city to start activities. Most of the troops that had arrived at Gondor were stationed in the camps peacefully and conducted indoor training within their ability. The troops that were about to participate in the parade removed their armor and continued to train. Yunzhou was very wealthy and had enough Jiang Tang. These camps with high spirits would never be weaker than anyone else in such a big scene.

Although it is windy and rainy, the entire city is still functioning normally and strong. When it rains to the third day, the streets are still dry and there is no water accumulation. In those stone slabs that have spent a lot of effort to carve shallow anti-slip grooves on the ground, everyone can run around. Although it will inevitably get wet, it will not look like some cities. When going out on rainy days, it will inevitably be muddy.

Every day, a small official wore boots and raincoats made of natural rubber, shuttled through the streets and alleys, asking about the living conditions of the residents, and helping residents to repair the leaking places. The construction of the city is so complicated, it is impossible to make every building perfect, not to mention that there are too many people in the entire city construction, and too many contractors are involved, which is not completely controlled by Ye Tao, Guan Haishan and others. Most of the areas where Jiang Yan and Zheng Zhe are located are wealthy families who buy land and find people to build themselves. There are many problems, but this kind of area. Many people always feel that laying out sewer pipes is a bit redundant.

The cost is not small, but at this time it was a disaster. Jiang Yan and Zheng Zhe couldn't help laughing at the fact that there were always people in every place and every country, but the owners of these places were in trouble. Those who had not moved in yet, had to ask for help from the government. Although the Governor's Office of Gondor had no governor, it was already in good operation. There were no one living in the buildings for the time being, but the well-equipped houses were used to temporarily resettle these down-and-out guys. Of course, the rent with a punitive nature was inevitable. This caused another curiosity among many people who arrived in advance: When did the government start doing such thoughtful things?

There are also many parts that have stopped operating. The street lights of the main roads that were originally lit every night have temporarily stopped using. Although Ye Tao has considered a certain degree of waterproof performance when developing electrical equipment, especially light bulbs and lamps, the practical time of electric lights is too short. Due to the limited output, everyone thinks that the light bulbs are very expensive and they are reluctant to do anything. Only the lights in the area around the Governor's Palace still insist on lighting them as a test. This area has inadvertently become the hope of all the people in Gondor. When the whole city falls into a dark state, when the sound of thunder and continuous thick raindrops washing everything, the people can always find the nearby high point, look out from afar, and see the warm light in the center of the city. It is not surprising that everyone has such emotions.

The Governor's Office is also the busiest place in Gondor, with a large number of staff coming and going. The civil affairs officials also have rubber raincoats, but the number of raincoats is limited after all, and those who come and go and transport all kinds of intelligence and documents are not treated so well. But now in Gondor, there are many people who need to transmit intelligence in this situation. After all, Gondor has just been built, and there are still many details to be improved or are being tested. This situation also made Ye Tao make up his mind that even if the telephone system is not perfect, he can only transmit point-to-point for the time being.

"It was heard from Dongcheng that there is a small area of ​​the camp where Tieyunqi is stationed and there is a slight seepage in it, as if the tiles were blown up by the wind. Can any craftsmen go to repair it?"

"The freight terminal reported that everything was normal, and all warehouses were waterproofed."

"The report from the Ordnance Warehouse, there is no problem with all lightning rods, and the dispersed placement of the sulphur bombs has been completed. We have guaranteed that there will be double duty guards for twelve hours. The fire-fighting equipment has been distributed."

"There are layers of layers on the mountain, and it is the most troublesome to encounter this kind of weather. Ensure that there are enough personnel to respond to the emergency. Remember to take the anti-slip ablation, and the stairs are like small waterfalls..."

"Let the brothers who are patrolling the mountain road be careful and pay attention to landslides and mudslides. Especially in the back mountain, if the brothers on duty at the Hero Hall on the top of the mountain have enough water and food, don't run around. This weather..."

"The wall in the west was struck by lightning!" "Ah!? What?" "No reaction, the craftsmen are checking, it seems that the lightning rod on a turret has not been installed yet."

"Have the families who entered the water in Xicheng all settled?... Let Xiao Ding turn around and stare at this matter, and remember that the house maintenance fee and pipeline installation fee will be doubled."

In the busy Governor's Office, all kinds of situations were summed up. The officials and soldiers were passing by brought news and instructions. The army never caused much trouble to Ye Tao, and due to the full preparation, nothing major happened in Gondor. Except for someone tilting a large amount of debris into the sewer pipe, causing the drainage pipe to be blocked and a block of water was immersed in water. In Gondor, the fines and handling of such things have always been severe and strict.

A few days later, Ye Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Gondor had withstood the test. The drainage pipe could not only quickly carry a large amount of rainwater off the ground, making the whole city look dry, but also have more energy. The load of the sewer pipe is only about half of these days. I guess it would be safe to survive even if it was a heavy rain that was rare in a century. Although the dock could not load and unload normally in this weather, material management and transportation, especially the delivery of some inventory of daily necessities to various parts of the city.

But the work has never been interrupted. Of course, this is just a special disposal at the special stage of the city's construction. The wharf can be regarded as a relatively weak link in the meticulous Gondor city defense system. The wharf reservoir area is even outside the defense circle. After Gondor enters smooth operation, a large number of necessities related to people's livelihood will definitely not be stored here for a long time. As for now, since there are not many people in Gondor and the city has not yet fully operated, it is much more convenient to manage a warehouse area than to manage a large number of scattered warehouses.

After the first few days of heavy rain, when the tilt speed of the rain stabilized and the degree of mania was reduced, Gondor's popularity gradually recovered. The bell tower resumed on time. After a few days of reliable lighting in the blocks around the Governor's Mansion, the dock area, the commander-in-chief, and the avenues and market areas radiated from the central square to the edge of the city, also began to provide night lighting. The merchants were relieved, especially those inns and restaurants, and the business at night was immediately improved. Check in early.

Most of the people in Gondor are people with some family background. Drinking and chatting in teahouses and restaurants, and then going home with the lights became a special fashion during this period. However, the officials' round-trip traffic was reduced. Although the construction was not completed and accepted, the pipeline mail system was still put into trial operation. High-pressure steam drove metal mail boxes to shuttle between office locations of different departments, and the small officials quickly got used to judging whether the department was busy based on the frequency of the roar of the pipeline.

Everyone was expecting the weather to turn sunny, so they were not afraid of the heavy rain and were not bored at all. The soldiers and officials from the military jokingly said that they were training with recruits, and they had good grades and could enter the main battle camp. However, before the official assignment, the officers in charge of the training would definitely give these top students a hard time to let them know that the sky is high and the earth is thick...
