Chapter 291 The Electric Age

This time has just come to the end of the steam era. If Root can handle it well, he can do a lot of things with the manpower he has now.

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 a small amount of 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 flooded with light.

.

According to the experience brought to him by the limits of classical physics, the world should soon enter the age of electricity. He even learned about it through the knowledge brought by some books. Some people in this world have discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, but there are still

The rules have not been completely summarized. A usable generator has not been invented. The few ways to create 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.

To be able to become a member of the exploration team, the cultural level is sufficient. At least the theoretical knowledge is sufficient. The industrial knowledge accumulated after so many reincarnations is theoretically enough to promote the development of an industrial revolution.

.

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

If they were an organization like a gang in the beginning 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, he 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 gangsters are literate? It is obvious right before our eyes. However, the local government has not realized how harmful it will be after gangsters become literate. At least for them, their control over the local area will be reduced to them in the process.

I don't want to see it.

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

Yes no.

After the initial few fights during their unification process, there were basically no more 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 local gangs can

Doing these things should be a good thing in the eyes of the government.

From Root's point of view, he is cultivating a group of qualified workers for himself. For factories in this era, completely illiterate workers are already somewhat inappropriate. At least they can understand some basic words and have simple skills.

Reading and writing skills, and mastering some less advanced mathematical knowledge. Although it is not as rigorous as calculus, it is at least necessary to master the knowledge of solving systems of equations. If necessary, you also need to master certain knowledge of analytic geometry.

These can be used more or less in industrial production.

Only after mastering this knowledge skillfully 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. Initially, all they could produce were light industrial products, such as

Talk about finished wooden furniture, simple things like pots and pans.

After all, the town they are in is not very big, and it is good to be able to develop the local industry to this point. And with his knowledge of the limits of classical physics, he can make certain improvements to the factory's original production model.

The quality of the product is improved to a certain extent and the production cost is reduced to a certain extent. It can achieve considerable cost advantages in competition with similar products.

This further prospered the local industry. Although it was just a simple processing factory, it also allowed the local gang to let his subordinates see that his ability could lead everyone to make money.

Although they don’t know why they need to learn all kinds of natural science knowledge during this process. But since the boss can make money for himself and make the family live much better than before, then these decisions should be correct.

.

The natural science knowledge they learn will not make them realize how powerful it is before it is verified by social practice.

After having enough original capital, he also began to introduce more advanced machine tools and began to process power generation equipment according to his 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 be profitable in the market. Under normal development in this process, there will inevitably be a large number of

The Pathfinder was blown to death by the wind at the intersection of this new era.

But he already has mature experience, which allows him to have his own opinions on how to make money in the current power system.

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 provide power to various parts of the city.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But the cost of a power plant is too high. Steam engines are still quite expensive in this era. There are only a few old models in his processing plants.

It belongs to the type of bargain.

With his current financial resources, he simply couldn't afford the latest model of steam engine.

If you build a thermal power plant, the cost is too great. And before a large number of commodities are popularized, it is equivalent to paving the way for others. If you want to truly become a big capitalist, you must use this

The process is gradually divided. First, he aims to make money and promote the development of the era bit by bit. After he has accumulated enough capital, he will further advance the era. And he has his own plan for this.

The first is to make the goods you manufacture meet the needs of those who are relatively wealthy. 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.

It's getting a little difficult.

However, society's attention to them is far from enough at present.

Root's plan for his future power factory is to first rely on customizing some power equipment for his wife, and build his own reputation in the process.

Since it is a customized device, it must be elegant enough 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 fully sufficient in the smelting of non-ferrous metals. It can fully undertake the production of electric equipment.

, in this way, 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 is also 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 in the world that can emit light.

, some can emit light simply by passing electric current, which is even easier to use than black silk.

It knew these materials in its 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.

At most, you can find a substitute and produce something that looks similar in function. But during actual use, you will find that the performance is much worse.

After all, this is a mature industrial product that has been iterated for who knows how many years. Even if it is dismantled and copied, without any breakthrough in materials science, if you want to perfectly reproduce it and control the cost within an affordable range, it is basically impossible to do it.

Not available.

This is also the reason why he has limited financial resources and has not developed 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 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 will 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 stronger than ordinary candles, but compared with this kind of battery-powered electric lamps, the gap is still too big.

Although the battery also needs to be constantly replaced, this is considered normal by people in this era. After all, nothing can theoretically provide continuous lighting without consuming any fuel.

If this light does not need to consume fuel and can shine out of thin air, that will be completely incomprehensible to them.

I’m just talking about how much sales this thing can have? Will future textiles squeeze the market? These things are actually not critical. After all, for a long time, it will be the only battery that can be produced. In this case, even if

Others have successfully copied their own electric lights, and in a way they are giving themselves 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. Compared with thermal power plants in this era, hydroelectric power generation is more expensive.

It is cost-saving. After all, steam engines are too expensive. If something like a textile factory can be opened by the river, the cost will 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 hydropower plant is originally obtained from the water. The consumption of this era

The power is quite low, and it 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 turn on the battery 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.

open without worrying about his energy being exhausted. It was truly graceful 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 also a highly sought-after thing 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.
