Chapter 549: Mechanical Revolution, Technology That Can Promote the Development of Civilization

Chapter 549 Mechanical Revolution, Technology Enough to Promote the Development of Civilization!

The warm sun in the winter morning cannot bring the same heat recovery as in summer.

Although the weather in the depression finally turned sunny today, the room temperature was still around minus six degrees at six or seven o'clock, and the perceived temperature was only around zero degrees.

Seeing that most of the villagers who came to join in the fun began to sneeze from the cold, Su Mo had to end his sigh and slipped back to the shelter.

The familiar door was pushed open, and the familiar smell still came from inside.

But the slight difference was that the ground tiger, King Kong, and two rotary tillers parked in the garage had disappeared.

Instead, there was a workshop with a strong heavy machinery style!

The front wall that was transformed with partitions and tools through drawings before has been completely demolished!

Now, the wall is evenly divided in half from the middle.

Seven or eight giant nails were driven on the left, and several large hand-made tools were hung on the nails.

On the surface of the equipment, you can clearly see the protective paint that has not yet dried, reflecting the light from the outside world.

The right side of the wall has become a hanging tool storage column. From top to bottom, there are four columns, with hundreds of various tools. It can be said to be a paradise for science and engineering men!

Step into the shelter.

The previous stone floor surface has been evenly covered with a layer of dense wooden floor.

Although these woods have only been simply processed and do not feel very comfortable to step on, they can be used to prevent the stone from getting damp in the cold winter and effectively extend the service life of precision instruments.

"Brother, how are you now? Is it much warmer than before!"

Arrived in the house and jumped off Su Mo's back.

Su Chan came to the corner of the wall familiarly and pressed a light switch.

In an instant, the three pumpkin lanterns hanging on the ceiling began to flash warm yellow light, and the small wall lamps around the wall also lit up the contrasting color, completely illuminating all corners.

Obviously the temperature outside is still freezing.

But as the light shines into people's hearts, there is an extremely comfortable and warm feeling!

"Tsk tsk, your design is much better than mine"

"This decoration, haha, makes me feel like I'm entering someone else's house"

As if returning to a home in the civilized era, Su Mo looked here and there, his curiosity was beyond words.

Approaching the stone door on the second floor, it still maintains Su's previous rough design style, and has not made too many changes to prevent affecting the overall structural rigidity.

But on the other side, it has become an open laboratory, with large and small instruments evenly scattered in it.

Coupled with the large screens on three sides, Su Mo actually felt a sense of being in another world in his heart.

"Recently, everyone's enthusiasm for work has been high, and the things in the lucky bag are getting better and better"

"Like this lamp, screen, computer, and all kinds of small and large things, they are all opened from it!"

Pointing to the things on the ground, Su Chan counted them all.

"Exchange?"

"Of course, now we have implemented private property, so we must exchange with them."

Now, with the property completely separated.

The materials in the shelter and the materials in the village have also been completely divided.

Back to the second floor, while putting on shoes, Su Chan took out a small notebook, which neatly recorded the recent "prices" and the expenses in the shelter.

"Hey, you have recorded all this?"

"Not bad, let me take a good look at the market conditions in our depression!"

Having seen the complicated goods account books in the Free City, for the depression that has just recovered and produced barter.

Su Mo immediately became interested, sat on a chair in the open area, opened the first page, and read it carefully.

First of all, the trading market conditions.

Just like animals that store a lot of food before hibernation before winter, for the villagers who are still in collective accommodation, the most valuable and popular thing at present is still food resources.

From ordinary unprocessed food, such as flour, rice, and whole grains, to more advanced biscuits, canned food, bread, and instant noodles.

As long as it is edible, there is basically no need to worry about the way to trade, and it can be easily sold and exchanged for what you want.

And below, after food, the second most popular is daily necessities.

From ordinary toothbrushes, soaps, towels, washbasins, razors, to cold-resistant clothes, a warm quilt, and a complete prey fur.

It is completely different from the refugees in Liberty City who don’t care about the living environment or the quality of life.

Without the imminent pressure of survival and the future.

Humans who have lived on the earth for decades in the civilized era will naturally not be content with their current lives.

When washing, they need comfortable towels, sturdy washbasins, and suitable cleaning products.

When sleeping, they miss comfortable mattresses, warm quilts, and dry sheets.

Even when going to the toilet, they will miss the soft toilet paper before when they use soil.

From this list of transaction requirements for various daily necessities, Su Mo saw a lot of things behind the paper records.

And these points are exactly the results that Su Mo wants to see most after the policy is implemented!

"Very good, as long as our internal supply and demand relationship continues to maintain this trend, there is no need to worry about not being able to revitalize the economy!"

The blood supply of the lucky bag just meets the dilemma of the depression without external economic stimulus in the early stage.

And when the lucky bag activity ends, it will be just in time to get through the long winter and usher in the new "spring"!

By then, not to mention the far distance, as long as the trade route in Free City can be opened.

Let these demon souls take the goods in the depression to other places in the new world, then what awaits the depression is definitely an unstoppable rise!

Thinking of this, Su Mo suddenly became excited and began to look through the data behind.

As expected, the current "peace" has not made these villagers who have struggled in the end times give up their vigilance.

The third major category of transactions is also weapons, protective gear, and some survival supplies.

Of course, the most recycled of these things is naturally the village body.

In the case that the militia equipment has not been completely unified, many villagers drove it and did not hide it. They generously contributed it to the village at a low price to equip the militia to protect everyone.

"There are only these three categories, what about the rest?"

"What else is left? The rest are all sundries, worthless!"

Signing Su Mo to turn to the page at the back that records the expenditure, Su Chan smiled.

"Let me see"

When he heard that the imported goods that were sold for tens of thousands of points in Liberty City were worthless in the depression.

Frowning, Su Mo turned all the way to the back and began to mutter.

"Trade fair on the morning of April 9"

"In the first round, two ceiling pumpkin lanterns and four wall-mounted warm light lamps were purchased, and a total of three soap bars and one toothpaste were paid?"

"In the second round, two LCD screens and a small cutting and grinding machine (paid by Lü Kuan) were purchased, and a total of five towels and three toothbrushes were paid?"

"In the third round, a computer host, an LCD screen, and a micro centrifuge (paid by Ouyang Guo) were purchased, and a total of two razors, a brand new bed sheet, three pairs of warm socks, and five towels were paid!"

""

In each record, the items in the front are often very valuable, and they would sell for at least 18,000 yuan in Liberty City.

But when you look at the back, you can only exchange for some ordinary daily necessities.

This sense of disobedience, even if Su Mo has been mentally prepared, still shook his head and couldn't accept it.

"We don't have electricity for lights now. Besides, even if we have electricity, we need our own house to use it. How long do we have to wait?"

"And this screen and this host are even more useless. Their value is basically the same as that of ordinary iron blocks."

"As for these instruments, when they got them, they all planned to give them to us for free for research. I insisted on giving them to them, so they had no choice but to accept them!"

"We still have a lot of inventory!"

With her hands on her waist, Su Chan looked like a housekeeper, with a proud face.

It's just like what she said.

When selling seeds in the trading market before, Su Mo had exchanged a lot of items above the excellent level.

Because only the grade was selected, but the items were not classified, the items collected were basically daily necessities.

At that time, Su Mo was a little helpless about these things that could not be used up at all.

But no one would have thought that.

These things that could not be used up for decades would be so popular now after the establishment of the economic system!

So much so that they could be exchanged for so many high-value scientific and technological products!

"So, all these in our lab were taken back?"

Putting down the notebook, Su Mo stood up and began to examine it with an incredible look on his face.

Compared with the previous simple experimental environment, the gap in today's instruments is still very large.

But there is no doubt that with the help of modern computers and the skills of Lu Kuan and others.

Even if there are only these things, they can play a great role and directly promote the rise of the technology tree in the depression!

"Hey, Lu Kuan and his friends, why don't I see anyone!"

Walking to the table used for work inside, Su Mo picked up a notebook casually.

The robot that everyone used to parasitize before has lost everyone's favor after Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng "resurrected".

Early in the morning, the robot is still nestled in the corner. Looking at the dust on it, it is obvious that no one has used it for at least one or two days.

And in the brain box, the brains belonging to Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng are not parasitic in the slime.

"Uncle Lu and Uncle Ai? They both set off for the hot stone mine. Oh, by the way, we have already established a mining base there."

"If nothing unexpected happens, they have also received the news and are coming back!"

Looking at Su Chan saying, while pointing at the back wall of the laboratory, Su Mo's eyes condensed and looked over.

The hot stone mine is not as simple as it seems. It was discovered in the heating management before. Lv Kuan came and judged the nature and came to the conclusion.

But because the schedule was too tight, Su Mo took Hao Qiang on the road to Liberty City that night.

This led to Lv Kuan's idea of ​​returning to the shelter to discuss in detail, which could only be thwarted.

This trip took only four days before and after, and everyone decided to establish a mining base in the hot stone mine.

That means that the value of this thing is definitely not low!

It was easy. After walking to the front of the wall, Su Mo found the information he wanted from the dozens of papers hanging there.

Looking from top to bottom, there are three pieces of paper recording hot stone mine information.

The first one was full of various graphics. Looking carefully, Sumo found that the graphics on it were all hand-drawn ore shapes.

When there is no heat absorption, the entire ore shows a light black-purple color, which is not much different from ordinary black pebbles.

But after heat enters, the ore will undergo qualitative changes.

First, at 10%, the black-purple color on the surface of the ore will naturally be affected by the core inside, and begin to shrink inwards and gather its shape.

At 30%, this shape will shrink further and gradually become a standard circle, floating inside the ore.

When the heat absorption progress reaches 60%, the black and purple color on the entire ore surface will recede, completely condensing the round shape inside the ore!

At this time, looking from the outside, you can still see the black and purple color inside. This is because the condensed ball has not been folded by the colloid outside.

Until it reaches 100%, the colloid outside the black ball will gradually undergo a wonderful change, completely wrapping the black ball inside.

At this time, the previously dark purple ore will appear milky white.

And due to the imbalance of heat, the colloid will start to drive the black ball inside to rotate, releasing energy outward.

“So this is how heat is absorbed and released!”

A simple illustration clearly explains the changes in the hot stone mine during the entire work process.

Through these physical changes, the possibility that the hot stone ore is a radiation material and is undergoing a chemical reaction is basically ruled out.

With full curiosity, Sumo looked at the paper below with the keywords recorded on it.

"Hot stone mines, heat energy exchange, induced signal release, natural high-energy batteries, energy storage tools, bombs, construction materials, pesticides"

Each of the familiar terms represents the guesses made by Lu Kuan and others about the uses of hot stone mines.

Of course, not all keywords are the result of hot stone mines.

From beginning to end, although there were hundreds of nouns listed on the paper, most of them were crossed out.

After scanning the rest, Sumo's eyes focused on the noun marked in red on the third piece of paper.

"Energy connection?"

"Exactly!"

He read out the first noun on the third piece of paper in confusion. Before Su Mo could finish his words, Lu Kuan's jubilant and rich voice sounded behind him.

Subconsciously, he turned his head following the sound. After seeing clearly the appearance of the two figures who walked through the door, Sumo was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

"What are you doing, staying up late at night and having a snowball fight in the snow?"

In four days, Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng had become more proficient in controlling their bodies compared to when they were strangers at the beginning.

If you take a quick look, you can easily see anything that feels inconsistent.

However, unlike Chen Shen and others who were disheveled before, the two people who had just entered had thin snowflakes hanging on their heads and eyebrows, looking extremely funny.

"Hey, Sumo, don't tell me. This hot stone mine is really cunning. They are always absorbing heat during the day and only release heat evenly at night. If you want to find experimental data, you can only Night to"

"That's not true. Lao Ai and I worked all night in vain last night. We only chased people's butts, but we haven't seen anyone yet!"

After patting his clothes and shaking off the snowflakes all over his body, Lu Kuan could not hide the joy on his face even though he was cursing.

"No, look, this is the experimental data we measured, and we are going to distribute it this time!"

Lu Kuan opened his military coat and took out a crumpled piece of paper filled with complicated formulas.

"In a sense, hot stones are indeed similar to the room-temperature superconductors they mentioned before, but this similarity is not about the principle, but the usage scenarios and usage."

"After our research, during the process of releasing heat and energy, the loss ratio of hot stone can be controlled within 001%, and the most powerful thing is that its upper limit of endurance is so high that you and I can hardly imagine it. You know what this means What are you wearing?"

He handed the paper over tremblingly.

Lu Kuan originally wanted to say something, but after realizing that Su Mo's knowledge level was already extremely high, he could only turn his head and explain to Su Chan, who looked curious.

But unfortunately, these professional terms he used are still fantasy to Su Chan, who has a high school education.

Seeing the latter's eyes widening as if listening to a story, and seeing the growing joy on Su Mo's face, Ai Jianfeng stepped forward and interrupted Lu Kuan's ramblings.

"Xiaochan, Lu Kuan said it was complicated, but in fact this thing is very simple."

"You can understand that the reason why it was difficult for us to make breakthroughs in the energy field in the past was because we were unable to make breakthroughs in preservation and transmission."

"Like the batteries you have seen, they do not bind electrical energy inside, but generate electrical energy through chemical energy, such as pumped hydro energy storage, flywheel energy storage, magnetic field energy storage, hydrogen energy storage, etc., they can only Using electrical energy to do work, converting it into energy such as potential energy, and storing it does not actually directly save energy."

"But now, our hot stones are different. We can directly store energy in them. We only need to create a corresponding device to extract the energy inside without any loss, and it can even be used repeatedly."

Speaking of this, Ai Jianfeng seemed unable to contain his excitement. After exhaling two long breaths, he took out the hot stone ore from his backpack and kissed it devoutly.

"This is a revolutionary breakthrough that can promote the development of civilization!"

"As long as we mine ten tons, the territory will be able to fully restore electricity, and everyone can enjoy free electricity converted from sunlight!"

"As long as we mine a hundred tons and promote other technologies to keep up, my God"

"Individual armor, energy towers, anti-gravity vehicles, high-energy weapons, real-time monitoring satellites, and ultra-long-range missiles are too many, too many!"

"It is no exaggeration to say that from this moment on, this is a mechanical revolution!"
