Monster Factory-Chapter 750: Open up on the mountain.
The sun was shining in Port Harcourt and the waters there were very clear due to the absence of industrial pollution.
When the Titan's radio broadcast what the Port Harcourt radio announced, the boats in the channel had already wisely moved away. At the same time, four high-powered tugs approached and took the Lord Duan Battleship to the dock.
Looking at all the ports in Nigeria, only Port Harcourt could provide berthing for the Lord Duan Battleship. However, this overseas trip will not end so soon for the Lord Duan Battleship. After dumping the cargo that was on the ship, the ship will sail more than 200 kilometers further and open a port for cargo ships with a capacity of fewer than 100,000 tons on the deserted beach where the Lord Duan Battleship will exchange the cargo with General Mopu. Only two docks will be built, and one of them will only serve the Huge Industrial Monster, so the construction period of this port will last for six months.
If Ye Qing wanted to transport a large quantity of heavy materials to Suotu Rainforest, he could only rely on this wharf in this port. But he couldn't wait six months, so he had to use the fastest speed to send the Lord Duan Battleship to open a temporary port that could accommodate cargo ships with a capacity of 10,000 tons. The construction of this casual port will last only a week, and then there will be cargo ships from neighboring countries, dumping here the basic construction materials for the construction of the road. Now the Lord Duan Battleship could only dock at Port Harcourt.
If you are in China, a distance of several hundred kilometers is nothing. Still, in Nigeria, a distance of several hundred kilometers means that a lot of heavy equipment on the Lord Duan Battleship has to cross the desert.
When the Lord Duan Battleship was completely docked at the port, dozens of monster workers walked from the Lord Duan Battleship to the ground along the steel escalator. Ten used vans also accelerated from the harbor channel.
On the vans sat watery Chinese faces. They are all employees sent by the Huge Industrial Monster to the Sotu Rainforest for construction, and now they are in charge of bringing back this batch of equipment. The greetings were not long, after having paid the entrance fee, the 80 seconded employees immediately began the work of transferring the equipment.
When the harbor crane's hook was connected to the steel cable binding a giant Mechanical Colossus Type X, nearly half of the people in the harbor came out to watch the party. The Mechanical Colossus Type X was insignificant compared to the Chinese workers of the giant ship the Lord Duan Battleship. But once it was detached from the bridge it was tied to and set down on harbor lands, it became an existence for everyone to admire.
A standard heavy container truck passed by, and people were shocked to find that the highest point of the heavy container truck was not as high as the Mechanical Colossus Type X's gigantic tires advanced curiously and found they could even straighten their backs and go under this behemoth's frame. As for the two steel robotic arms that looked like Transformers arms and the huge alloy tools behind them, the watching crowd couldn't even say a full word.
Two Mechanical Colossus Type X, twenty Mechanical Colossus Type I, one large-scale power generation equipment, one immersion spiral classifier, one wet ball mill with a total weight of 200 tons, one crusher, one milling system non-negative pressure water supply, two concrete mixing station equipment, hundreds of containers filled with industrial materials were all laid on the ground...
When the industrial equipment and materials were unloaded at the port one by one and piled up like a factory, the employees of the Huge Industrial Monster had already started using the two Mechanical Colossus Type X, to ship this industrial equipment.
Two very large flat trailers were ready to be hitched to the two Mechanical Colossus Type Xs loaded with carrying the heaviest equipment; the twenty Mechanical Colossus Type I, each was also equipped with a trailer with a load of almost 100 tons. Lighter equipment was left to heavy standard container trucks.
A Master Metal Expert stood in front of the line with a metal piggy bank filled with US dollars. As long as there is a truck driver ready to transport, he will be paid $5,000.
Port Harcourt was about 300 kilometers from the town of Anut. If you change the existing road to an ordinary road, it will only cost you four to five hundred dollars. Now that the price has more than doubled, the truck drivers who worked at the port have trampled on each other out of greed. But when they learned the destination was the district of Anut, the truckers who had gathered around kept shaking their heads. Because Aunt has no road access and the several existing dirt roads could only pass vans, and their heavy goods vehicles cannot go there.
"Go ahead, we'll check the route. From Port Harcourt to Anut City, there are no rivers or mountains blocking the roads. There are bends and turns in the road, we will just go over them. Also, if the road is impassable, you take the dollars and drive away and leave the truckloads there."
This was an enticing proposition, even though many of these truck drivers did not recognize the Huge Industrial Monster logo. But the giant ship they had never seen couldn't be rigged, and the harbor's mountains of industrial equipment couldn't be rigged either.
Now, even the blind know the Huge Industrial Monster is an incredible high-level multinational group. Can they fool these drivers who depend on their trucks for a living?
"So get the box ready, hurry up, maybe it's not dark when you get back halfway."
Many HGV drivers who wanted to take a quick trip were all dumbfounded just after leaving Harcourt City.
The two juggernauts of bright yellow steel marched straight along the barren land of the coast, and as the huge dust rolled in, a team of armed soldiers in at least fifty pickup trucks joined them from outside of the city to escort them.
The local drivers naturally recognized the armed soldiers, who all wore General Mopu's uniforms.
That's it, now looking at these vans armed with guns and on their toes wandering around the convoy of heavy goods vehicles and mechanical vehicles.
The truck drivers figured that when they got near the impassable dirt roads they would turn back and take the 5,000 Dollars. Why do they have to keep going to Anut to get the 5,000 Dollars?
At the meeting of the first "roadblock", the truck drivers had already counted the tickets. It was at a small hill with trees, and the hard dirt road under the wheels made a turn and went around the hill. But the Mechanical Colossus didn't travel the way pickup trucks often did, because of the sandy road where the wheels of the heavy trucks were sinking or even tipping over due to the change in center of gravity.
HGV drivers turned off the trucks' engines and got out one by one, ready to discuss whether to turn back.
They are not very afraid of these soldiers and can content themselves with transporting in the port of Harcourt; they all lived under the command of General Boggs who commanded at Port Harcourt. The big problem is they will earn a little less, and there is no reason to be concerned about this problem.
"What are you doing here? The road will soon be open," Huang Qiang, who was in charge of transportation, shouted at the truck drivers in English: "Our company has sent the Mechanical Colossus Type X, and you are scared that there is no way to continue walking there?"
They said, "We've watched it on TV before, and even though we've heard of the Mechanical Colossus Type X. How's it going to get over that hill in front of it? Especially with the tools it was carrying," they vaguely guessed it was an extra-large construction vehicle, but in front of them was a small hill how he is going to get over it.
On the map, the hills were described in fine print, but in reality, they are also seven or eight meters high and nearly 100 meters wide.
And then... Those truck drivers and the local soldiers guarding the convoy. Suddenly, they heard heaven and earth resonate and a super-powerful roar of an engine. They looked along the road where the roar was coming from and discovered the source of the sound and saw the Mechanical Colossus Type X belching thick black smoke high into the sky from an exhaust pipe that is none other than his chimney.
The earth shook, the sky breathed smoke, and the power of the Mechanical Colossus Type X's giant engine from idle to high speed, beyond their imagination, after a minute entered from the natural working state to the hydraulic system pressure increased, and for the first time, in front of these natives, giant steel arms folded on both sides were displayed, and with the sound of the mechanical structure moving, the two robotic arms quickly rose up and moved to the rear of the octagonal diamond-shaped nose, and the two jet-black alloy buckets that appeared to be prepared for Optimus Prime had locked onto the mechanical arms. They pointed at the hill in front of him, and his movements became majestic and full of power.
There was a dull roar echoing in the sky, and the Mechanical Colossus Type X unlocked the heavy body dragging behind it holding the bucket low and charging forward.
"Boom~"
The truckers and soldiers who were huddled next to them were almost startled by the shaking of the ground and sat on the ground, their retinas tearing a little.
What did they see?
They saw the long-lasting hill torn apart by the steel giant. Dust was flying and the hill quickly broke, rippling with the bucket like waves. Whether it was a rock or a tree growing on it, were completely separated into two piles of sand with a road in the middle.
"What are you doing, hurry up and get in your trucks," Huang Qiang suddenly ran towards them and shouted.
