Out of the cage

The process of industrialization is a process of social cooperation.

In the process of this social collaboration, some sacrifices will be made. In the history of the development of the earth's industrialization, a large number of grassroots have been sacrificed.

In the competition of mobilization in the two wars, the grassroots level was squeezed to the limit, and the efficiency could no longer be improved. But in order to win the war, and to dig deeper than the opponent's efficiency, the middle management and the upper capital holders have made deep concessions.

But in this world! How can the top arcane masters and the grassroots ordinary workers maintain a viable cooperative relationship?

Wei Keng: The "degree" between the various elements determines whether this arcane plane can create an "industrial society".

~

The biggest problem now is that, just as the spirit can affect the main material world, the arcane is created on this plane.

The negative accumulation of the spirit, when fed back to the material world, will cause treachery and mystery.

When the scissors of industrialization go poorly, there is exploitation, and exploitation leads to negative spiritual emotions.

In the face of exploitation and oppression, workers on this plane do not use hard machinery to destroy it.

In the process of going to work all year round, they only need an occasional extreme event to conjure up grievances against the negative emotions accumulated in upstream and downstream work. There is a high probability that "mysterious events" will occur on this production line.

Once this kind of weirdness is sung, it will be like a dam breach, and it will become out of control under the blessing of people-to-people communication.

~

So in the past, in order to eliminate unstable factors, arcanists who mastered technology would not employ people.

Those high-level mages who mastered the seven rings directly used constructs to maintain the production line.

Well, some middle-level mages with low moral lower limit, no, it should be said that there is no moral lower limit, in order to maximize efficiency and break through the technical threshold, they directly let the soulless stitch monsters be consumed on the production line. (They regularly acquire corpses.)

As for middle-level arcanists, apprentices are directly used for scientific research.

The relationship between a regular mage and an apprentice can be the relationship between a primary and secondary school teacher and a student, teaching plus caring.

As for the informal mages, it is the relationship between some professors and graduate students in ancient times. For his research, you are exhausted on the job, he will not shed a tear, and will only complain in his heart: the guy who can't be banned .

~

A final addition: In a world where gods rule, there is no golden mean.

The arcane mages either obeyed the precepts, or were found not to obey the precepts, and were beaten and killed by the fanatics of the god of order, and they were completely smashed.

After all, in the eyes of a mage, there is nothing more important than promotion. Observing the order of the gods is to some extent a shackle in the "process of truth exploration".

The gods are wise, but the perspective of mortals under the command of the gods is narrow. Moreover, for the sake of power desire, unknown things will be excluded and arcana will be restricted.

If you obey the order, the benefits in exchange will help you advance. Then it will always be followed. But it doesn't matter if you are rejected by the order?

On the southern continent, arcanists are the most free. It is said that it is common for the arcanists over there to deal with taboo mysticism. Can rub the devil every year.

Back to industry.

Being a god is about laying down the rules! Of course, if you make rules, you have to be familiar with them.

If the rules made conflict with each other, even if you were once a god, you have to fall. For example, some old rulers are the sealed incarnations of gods who are not suitable for the era.

Based on the basic physical rules of this world, in the process of industrial cooperation, how to solve the contradictions between the various levels of mortals?

As an industrial god, he must find a way to eliminate "the negative spiritual influence of ordinary people participating in the process of industrialization" in a broad sense. The success of "individual cases" cannot be used to cover up.

Regarding this point: the system proposed an optimal path for Master Wei.

However, Wei Keng was obviously a little bit repelled after reading this method of "praising the God of all opportunities". ——Wei Keng: "I don't engage in pyramid schemes."

Faced with Wei Keng's attitude, the system also gave a clear response: "Then, your path will be very difficult, and it will even be too big to be realized."

~

The development of industrialization must concentrate resources.

That is to let everyone involved in industrialized production recognize that the collective resources are allocated by the core, and it is reasonable to acquiesce that they do not participate in the allocation.

The database of the God of Knowledge linked by Wei Keng's godhead, as well as his own database, began to re-deduce.

Many out-of-the-way methods have been deduced, such as games. There are also various entertainments to distract the middle and lower classes, and then no longer obsessed with distributing dominance with the middle and upper classes.

Wei Keng: "Pacifier music" for the lower class, the model of the upper class holding actual power is very dishonest. The essence of painting cakes is to provide a basis for lies!

~

In the end, Wei Keng still chose the most difficult and impossible way. Try to adjust for a fair distribution.

Wei Keng: "I know that it is unrealistic for everyone to influence industrial decision-making. But the wealth and power of industrial output, in various forms, actually give back to everyone, which is the sustainable road."

Wei Keng: According to the development model of Oriental industry, everyone in the industrial chain must have a consensus!

On the basis of this consensus, industry is developed, and the "dragon slaying technique" is taught, so that the entire system can self-check contradictions in the development competition.

System: But it's back to the original difficulty. On this plane, let mortals and extraordinary people build a consensus. ——I really think too much.

~

Of course, the current Wei Keng is not an absolute idealist, and he also acquiesced that "the implementation of ideas" depends on reality, and decided to take it step by step.

But fundamentally, we will never take the path of swift and rapid progress.

The model of "driving people into factories and then hanging some low-level entertainment" was defined by Mr. Wei as crooked. In the end, entertainment is the lowest-cost "chemical bliss" for rulers.

Wei Keng: "If you engage in that thing, you can't guarantee that you will become an evil order and work for Ben (the god of tyranny)."

If it is impossible to operate a super-large factory with tens of thousands of people now, then build a small factory with a few hundred people.

Don't rush to make a cross-age breakthrough, first integrate the existing craftsman team, insert modern regulations one by one, and grow.

The Fengfu calendar is 3573 years old.

In the fresh song collar, the air hammer began to fall heavily. This kind of "no soul" forging, some equipment was gradually forged into shape.

The efficiency of this forging is strictly determined on the impulse of a standard weight (483 grams) times 8.34 (the planet's gravitational acceleration) times ten standard scales (about three meters).

The reason for determining this standard: Once this marked amount is exceeded, there will be abnormal energy overflow, and abnormal mechanical damage will occur to various moving parts that are not enchanted.

During the normal blacksmithing process, the energy exceeding these impulses will reverberate in the blacksmith shop,

An experienced blacksmith will adapt this impulse to his own muscles. Of course, this kind of blacksmith is a regular professional, and it is rare, but if the energy overflowing from forging can be guided by spiritual power, it can be integrated into the iron to form runes! That is a master-level blacksmith.

Such a blacksmith, even a mid-level lord can hire less than one!

~

Wei Keng: "All substances can be forged industrially, but things like runes must be guided by spirit!

Spirit is the only tool for forging runes, and this tool is connected to everyone's soul, so it cannot be standardized like mechanical parts. "

Without spiritual runes, if classical physics is stabilized, there will be no "constant stability" in machinery.

Not only the forging process, but also other production and scientific research activities have the same problem.

~

So, muskets?

In the scientific research center equipped by the factory, boxes with noble carved patterns were opened one by one.

The 13-year-old Carret put on a white identification robe and looked at the pattern seriously.

Wei Keng took out a gun barrel, which was from his family's treasure house, and it was said to have come out of the hands of the dwarves.

Wei Keng cast a ring-like identification technique, and looked inside the gun barrel, and saw that there were a large number of three-dimensional rune structures inside, and these runes were formed by relying on forging patterns. The forging pattern is obviously artificially knocked, which is completely handicraft.

~

The people on the side looked at Wei Keng's hand shining with light, and the forging mystery inside the steel structure was just like that, and couldn't help but marvel.

Not marveling at the barrel of the gun, but marveling at the heir of the Xingche family, the amazing talent for arcane magic.

He was only thirteen years old, and most of the mystics at this age who were on the path of pursuing the truth were still apprentices, and this young knowledge seeker was already able to use a variety of first-ring spells at his fingertips.

~

The housekeeper at the side said: "Master, this is the work of Master Borest." As soon as he opened his mouth, Wei Keng interrupted: "Mr. Luo Sen, no one can question your erudition, but I want to read the introduction Before reading the book, carefully observe these works."

Butler Rosen is a living encyclopedia, he can recite the history of every item in the mansion catalog.

It's a pity that he is not very helpful to Wei Keng. The system is more encyclopedic than him.

Of course, even if it is a system introduction, Master Wei rarely checks it when he comes up, and he has to read it by himself! Because the first time you substitute your own thinking, you can derive a variety of your own ideas.

~

The musket must be equipped with runes, and each part is also a simple rune structure.

Otherwise, the gunpowder will burn in the barrel, and the fire element will dissipate!

This is the quantum world, where energy is transported in quantum states, through matter and so on, all the time.

After the gunpowder energy dissipates out of the gun barrel, only part of it will be converted into the kinetic energy of air expansion, and under the constraints of the energy level, most of it will tunnel out of the gun chamber, causing flame burns to the holder. Note that it is a flame burn, not a scald, because the elements are penetrating, penetrating the skin.

The restriction on the development of firearms and weapons in this world is that the energy constraints of materials are insufficient, and the barrel and firing chamber must be enchanted.

Sometimes the means of restricting gunpowder energy is not necessarily only runes. For example, the barrel of the gun is made of the bones of some mysterious creatures, which is better than forging.

~

There are such exceptions in the system list:

On the Southern Continent, pirate chieftains would carry single-shot muskets. These muskets specially reduced the charge, and at the same time increased the mass of the projectiles, so that the range of the projectiles was within 20 meters.

If a single-shot pirate musket is a common item of a very ferocious pirate who is famous at sea.

In addition, the pirate kept using this gun to kill opponents and execute traitors during his lifetime. In the end, he himself died under this gun, forming a legend.

Then on this gun, there will be a spiritual force centered on the soul that was scattered when the pirate leader died. This force is impregnated in the gun barrel material, the stronger the ability to restrain the fire element from tunneling through the gun barrel. In this way, the amount of charge can be increased.

Over time, countless souls of the dead are entangled on the barrel of this gun.

The mysterious power accumulated on it will squeeze the energy of the gunpowder explosion. At the same time, the spiritual energy of the gun barrel will also be contaminated on the bullets along with the firing, forming the skill effect of "wraith and mourning".

But such items, while restraining the elemental power of gunpowder, will also affect those who come into contact, requiring them to have a sufficiently high "spiritual immunity" ability. Due to the high requirements on the willpower of the user, this kind of "gun of the pirate king" is often an ominous thing.

~

After the appraisal, Wei Keng dismantled the firearm directly under the frowning of the housekeeper, and sorted the parts one by one.

Then inspect each part one by one.

Wei Keng sighed: "Energy is dissipated?" This world is stuck in the basic physical rules of the cold weapon era.

If you become a god yourself and establish rules, the approximate form is to allow batches of key industrial materials to be consecrated in the Temple of Industry.

Wei Keng couldn't help being a little funny when he thought about the situation of his own temple system.

"Ring the bell once!

Push the lever to activate the piston and pump!

Ring the bell twice!

Press the button, start the engine, ignite the turbo, and breathe life into it!

Ring the bell three times!

Sing in unison, praise the God of Keng! "

Wei Keng behaved like a coward, but finally stopped because of the reminder from the butler beside him.

Master Wei's intelligence and agility are so high, and even thinking about it, the corners of his mouth will slobber. Obviously, he was thinking about things whose complexity was beyond the ability of ordinary people, and he couldn't concentrate enough to care about himself.

Of course, the reason is that Wei Keng's character likes to be in the comfort zone and be a mortal without any scruples.

Meanwhile, about five hundred kilometers to the southeast.

In the capital of the Eiger Empire, in the palace or so, in private meeting rooms.

The middle-aged His Majesty the Emperor, the Duke of Golden Blade, and the Knight Commander of the Paladin profession sat here.

His Majesty the Emperor finished reading the information on the Northern Territory investigated by the paladins, and his expression was a little embarrassed.

The elder brother in Rhett's territory was a life-and-death enemy when he was fighting for the throne, but he was already sitting on the throne. The constraints on the king's power are the church and other great nobles.

Xingche Higgsai, compared with the previous one, 50% of the power of the current throne has been emptied.

But now, if his brother of the same blood is suppressed, it means that the royal family will be further affected.

But there is already conclusive evidence in Rhett's territory that the lord there is about to change.

Emperor: "How is my little Carret?"

Knight Commander: "Your Majesty, your nephew has left the scope of evil rituals after 68 years. He is talented and intelligent, and is favored by the gods."
