Douluo See You For a Long Time

Chapter 291 The Electric Age

This time coincides with the end of the steam era. If Root can handle it well, he can rely on the manpower he has on hand now. You can do many things.

For example, he can actually take the initiative to promote the development and arrival of the next era. At least the technological level of the world they are in has developed to a higher level than here. After all, they have been reincarnated countless times. It has gone through the process of developing to the limits of classical physics.

Even after returning to the real world, without the magic power to distort reality, we can only rely on the pitiful sacrificial magic to assist the development of science and technology. The speed of development is also faster than that here which has always been in the flood of light.

Based on the experience brought to him by the limits of classical physics. Next, the world should soon enter the age of electricity, and he even understood it through the knowledge brought by some books. Some people in this world have discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, but they have not yet fully summarized the rules. A working electric generator had not been invented. The few methods that can produce electric current are not practical in this era, such as relying on static electricity to generate electricity. From his current perspective, the mainstream way of utilizing electrical energy in the future should still rely on generators that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.

It can become a member of the exploration team, and the cultural level is sufficient. At least the theoretical knowledge is enough, having experienced so many reincarnations. Accumulated industrial knowledge. In theory, it is enough to promote the development of an industrial revolution.

And he is now trying to start a second industrial revolution. I just happen to have some people on hand. So their organization, which was originally a gangster, became more and more strange as it developed.

If we say that at the beginning, they were a gang-like organization and established detailed rules that were stricter than the law, effectively organized the gang members, and even helped local residents maintain law and order, this reluctance is still understandable. Within the scope, it can be regarded as a relatively far-sighted gangster.

So it is quite outrageous to conduct literacy education within one's own gang and force gang members to learn elementary mathematics and classical physics knowledge.

What does it mean to be afraid that hooligans are literate? It's obvious right in front of you. The local government has not yet realized how harmful the gangsters will be once they become literate. At least for them, their control over the place will be reduced in the process to an extent that they don't want to see.

But so far, they all think that the local gangsters are very polite and do a good job. Taxes paid every quarter. The bribes are quite generous. Moreover, the local management is in order, and there are almost no security incidents.

After a few initial fights during their unification, there were basically no further conflicts.

This can be said to be quite outrageous. As for the education they are doing internally, the local government has not considered taking care of it at all. After all, the entire empire is working hard to promote education, but the results are not good due to cost and other issues. The fact that local gangs can do these things should be a good thing in the eyes of the government.

From Root's perspective, he is cultivating a group of qualified workers for himself. For factories in this era, completely illiterate workers are already somewhat inappropriate. At least be able to understand some basic words, have simple reading and writing skills, and master some less advanced mathematical knowledge. Although it is not as rigorous as calculus, you still need to at least master the knowledge of solving systems of equations, and if necessary Master a certain amount of knowledge about analytic geometry, which can be used more or less in industrial production.

Only after mastering this knowledge can you become a skilled and qualified worker through certain training.

In the process of this series of industrial preparations, he also used his accumulated original capital to acquire several factories and began to produce some relatively profitable things of this era. At first, all they could produce were light industrial products, such as finished wooden furniture, simple things like pots and pans.

After all, the town where they are located is not very big, and it is good to be able to develop the local industry to this point. Relying on his knowledge of classical physics limits, he made certain improvements to the factory's original production model. The quality of the product can be improved to a certain extent and the production cost can be reduced to a certain extent. It can achieve considerable cost advantages in competition with similar products.

This further allowed local industry to flourish. Although it was just a simple processing factory, it also allowed the local gangs to show his subordinates that he was capable of making money for everyone.

Although they don't know why they need to learn various natural science knowledge during this process. But since the eldest brother can make money on his own, he can make the family's life much better than before. Then I think these decisions should be correct.

They learn these natural science knowledge. They will not realize how powerful these are before they are verified by social practice.

After having enough initial capital, he also began to introduce more advanced machine tools. Start processing power generation equipment according to your own design drawings.

The electric power industry is a whole system. Under normal circumstances, before this system is developed, it is difficult for individual electrical equipment and power generation equipment to make profits in the market. If this process develops normally, a large number of pathfinders will inevitably be blown to death at the intersection of this new era.

But there is already mature experience. Let him have his own views on how the current power system can be profitable.

First of all, it is definitely impossible to build a power station. Power stations are indeed the future development trend. It is a normal development trend for centralized power supply to rely on the power grid to supply power to various parts of the city.

But the cost of a power plant is simply too high. Steam engines were still quite expensive in this era. There are only a few of his processing plants. Older model. It is a bargain type.

The latest model of steam engine was simply out of his reach with his current financial resources.

If you build a thermal power plant, the cost will be too high. And before a large number of products become popular, he is equivalent to paving the way for others. If you want to truly become a big capitalist, you must gradually separate this process. First aim at making money and promote the development of the times bit by bit. After you have accumulated enough capital, you can further advance the times. And he has his own plan for this.

The first is to make the products they manufacture meet the needs of relatively wealthy people. The current era is an era when capital has just sprouted, and some people already need relatively decent enjoyment.

After all, the disaster of the flood of light in this world has ended, and with the characteristics of human beings, without external pressure forcing them to unite, there will naturally be a certain amount of internal strife and wealth. Concentration in the hands of a few people

Now it has been reflected to a certain extent. The quality of life of some people has begun to be superior to others. From the porters who were originally gang members, it can be roughly seen that this era has begun to divide the rich and the poor, and the lives of some people have changed. I became a little troubled.

The society's attention to them is currently far from enough.

Root's plan for his future power factory is to first rely on custom-made power equipment for his wife. Make a name for yourself in the process.

Since it is a customized device, it must be elegant and convenient enough. In this regard, relying on wires for power is not elegant enough or magical enough compared to using batteries.

It is not too difficult for him to produce things like batteries. At present, the local scientific and technological level has a sufficient foundation in the chemical industry. It is also completely sufficient for the smelting of non-ferrous metals. It can fully undertake the production of electrical equipment. In this case, all aspects of the problem will be solved to a considerable extent.

The design of things like batteries was definitely not reasonable enough at the beginning, but with the experience of another world, the battery he designed can be said to have a very reasonable structure from the beginning, and the rest of the industrial products are also in accordance with This structure is used for production, and it can be foreseen that its production structure in the future will basically be the standard for future batteries and electrical appliances.

The first thing he introduced was the desk lamp, which was the cheapest and most common thing to produce. As for inventing things like light bulbs, it was not difficult for him at all. There are too many substances that can emit light in this world, and some can emit light simply by passing electric current, which is even easier to use than black silk.

These materials were understood in the original world and knew how to apply their properties. The electric lamps produced now have been processed through quite a few procedures. It can be said that even if they are dismantled, It is impossible to process the same thing.

The most you can do is find a substitute to produce something that looks similar in function. However, during actual use, you will find that the performance is much worse.

After all, this is a mature industrial product that has been iterated over many years. Even if it is dismantling and replicating, without a breakthrough in materials science, it is simply impossible to perfectly reproduce and keep the cost within an affordable range.

This is also the reason why he has limited financial resources and does not have a large enough technical advantage, so he dares to launch a product that does not seem to be difficult to imitate.

And when the bright electric lamps it produced were mass-produced and began to be sold on the market, a buying frenzy immediately set off.

Compared with candles, this thing is simply too elegant. It is not flexible at all and does not require frequent replacement of batteries. It does not require matches. You only need to press the switch to light up the bulb above. Moreover, it has been modified to have luminous performance. The light bulb itself made of better materials does not even generate too much heat.

Most of the electrical energy is converted into light, and the brightness released in this process is much higher than that of candles and the like.

In fact, the world already has kerosene lamps, which are much more powerful than ordinary candles, but compared to this kind of battery-powered electric lamps, the gap is still too big.

Although the battery also needs to be constantly replaced. But this seems normal to people of this era. After all, nothing can theoretically provide continuous lighting without consuming any fuel.

If this light does not need to consume fuel, it can shine out of thin air. That would be completely incomprehensible to them.

Just saying how many sales can this thing have? Will future textiles squeeze the market? In fact, these things are not critical. After all, for a long time, only it can produce batteries. In this case, even if someone else successfully imitates their own lamp, to a certain extent, they are giving themselves a gift. money.

Moreover, the products he is launching now will soon be eliminated by him. With enough funds, he began to try to build the first hydroelectric power plant. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com Compared with thermal power plants, this Hydropower generation in this era was more cost-effective. After all, steam engines were too expensive. If something like a textile factory could be opened by a river, the cost would be much lower than using a steam engine directly.

It's just that there are not that many rivers for people to use. The rivers themselves also have other functions. It is impossible to give all the power to textile factories for use. It is also impossible to place such a large factory next to the limited rivers. In contrast, if you build a power plant, electricity can be transmitted more conveniently over long distances. Although there will be a certain degree of loss, the electricity obtained by the hydroelectric power plant comes from the water. The power consumption in this era is quite low, which is absolutely enough to supply power to a nearby area.

Just when most people didn't realize what he wanted to do by building such a power plant, the house of a relatively wealthy factory owner who lived not far from the river installed wires for the first time. Later, they discovered that the lamp that needs to be replaced to light up is so elegant. Compared with the lamp that does not require any fuel or battery replacement and only needs to press a switch to light up, it can be lit all night long. of being on without worrying about his energy being depleted. It was truly elegant beyond his imagination.

Moreover, humans in this era still relatively admire technology. Being able to be the first to enjoy the crystallization of this technology is something that is highly sought after for the upper class people in this world.

After someone became the first crab eater and truly showed the deliciousness of fresh crabs to everyone, the popularization of electricity has become an irreversible trend in this era.
