In the morning at Dawn Port, the fog had not yet cleared, but the sounds of craftsmen and workers echoed with their labor chants.
"Heave-ho—heave-ho—"
They were building what would become the largest and most important port in the Northern Territory.
Strange machines roared in the construction site.
White mist sprayed from valves, swirling through the air. Heavy iron hammers powered by steam were propelled upwards and then slammed down, causing the mud on the ground to bubble.
These steam pile drivers are the latest creation of the Red Tide Territory steam craftsmen group.
Under Louis's suggestion, they added rails and counterweights above the steam hammer frame.
Thus, compared to manual labor, it's more precise, faster, and almost without deviation.
A few young workers stood by the furnace adding fuel, while others held the piles, and another shouted out chants to ensure unified and orderly movements.
