In April 1953, 1 1, stone mining began. Faced with more than 300 tons of complete stones, a skilled worker recruited from all over the world was at a loss, and the excavation work encountered resistance. But if there is a problem, there is a solution. At the foot of Laoshan Mountain, there is a village called Qingshiyu. There was an old stonemason named Li Kaishan, who was called "Stone God".
According to the memories of experienced workers at that time, it took a day just to put the boulder on the roller. At that time, when the road roller rolled, it was pulled by the bulldozer in front and then pushed by two bulldozers. Because of the bad road conditions, you can't move one kilometer a day, and you should always check the safety of stones to prevent them from cracking on the road.
Due to the lack of railway capacity at that time, this stone tablet weighing 102 tons could not get on the train at all. After the coordination of the person in charge, Chen Zhide finally found a 90-ton wagon, but the 90-ton wagon can only be overloaded at most 10%. To this end, the staff once again "slimmed down" the big stone-reduced to 94 tons. In this way, a special train with only four carriages slowly sailed to Beijing along the special transportation line of Qingdao Petroleum Company.
