Energetically, Wang Xiu nodded with satisfaction, and said softly: "Brother's true knowledge is general."

The two returned to the table, exchanged glasses with each other, talked and laughed, and the banquet lasted until the third watch and then dispersed, which was a great joy. 『』

Yuquanshan Academy Research Institute

"Fat Dun, do you think the grandfather clock can be completed in a short period of time" Wang Xiu was in the mechanical research institute of the research institute, holding a stainless steel ring outline in his hand, and looked at the bits and pieces of metal parts placed on a large table with a solemn expression.

In the room, there were dozens of students, who were studying the various parts in their respective locations under the guidance of two engineers invited from the Qin Tianjian.

Zhang Ling presided over the study of the table clock, has made great progress, at least the processing of precision gears, he took more than 20 physics students, together to concentrate on the development of table clocks and other gear machinery, ready to keep improving, and then come out of the high-quality products.

The inventions of the industrial civilization period were indeed difficult for these students, and many theories were not even accurate to Wang Xiu, so they had to go through trial and error and constantly improve the unknown field.

The successful development of xanthate gave them a lot of strength to step up the development of table clocks and other rare things.

Wang Xiu didn't ask too much, he positioned himself in the position of an enlightener or even a bearer, rather than a guide. His words and deeds play a decisive role in the development of scientific and technological theories, and if he is not careful to say the wrong thing, he will let the newly enlightened scientific and technological theories go to a detour, or even a dead end that will harm future generations.

His responsibility is to encourage these young people to continue to create and summarize, gradually mature, turn each mature theory into achievements with social benefits, and reserve basic knowledge and talents for new inventions.

Only by continuously accumulating talents and technology can quantitative changes be gradually produced, and there is no shortcut to science and technology, at least he thinks.

Gan Rong is the main force in the study of the table clock, second only to Zhang Ling, and he also came out of the Shangshui Residence Nursing Home, and his red eyes made Wang Xiu feel distressed for a while.

When Wang Xiu looked at Gan Rong, knowing that he had stayed up all night for a few more nights, he naturally couldn't bear it in his heart, and said gently: "Yingxiu, the combination of work and rest is the right way, and the body and bones are the capital of life."

Gan Rong grinned and said honestly: "It's okay, it's just that this bell has to refine steel, and Hangzhou ironmaking and steelmaking can't meet the standards." However, the grandfather clock is largely complete, and all that is needed is a few minor touches. ”

Wang Xiu nodded, miniaturized clocks have high requirements for metal, and the huge table clock is much simpler, and he said thoughtfully: "Iron-making alloys should be improved, and everything can't be replaced by wood. ”

Gan Rong was amused by Wang Xiu's humor and said, "What Mr. said is that the wooden bird flew for three days, but unfortunately it was lost. ”

"You believe it," Wang Xiu quipped with a smile.

"I believe that the wisdom of the ancients is by no means ordinary, and the tricks of the ancients are absolutely extinct, and they may have been lost." Gan Rong is very sure of authenticity.

"Then explore slowly and see if you can recover." Wang Xiu agrees that the wisdom of the ancients is extraordinary, whether it is galvanizing technology or memory metal, it is all preserved, and the hateful war and hateful view of the portal have made these advanced technologies lost.

"Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Shu, Hai 12 earthly branches, according to the twelve hours system, do not subdivide the main and secondary for the time being, after the development is successful, and then divided into 24 hours under the twelve hours, so that the progress may be faster. There are also some detailed places, which cannot be referred to in detail for the time being, and they can be used for the time being. ”

Since it is lost, then no longer bother, in order to create zào as much as possible, although many places are not perfect, as long as it can be practical, then it is easy first and then difficult, and it is gradual.

"What the mountain chief said is right, fine objects are not reachable overnight, trivial details are too difficult, perfect, I don't know what year and month it will have to be." Gan Rong felt that as one of the developers, he knew better than anyone how advanced iron-smelting technology was needed for a delicate bearing

"With the existing conditions, can it be successfully made into a table clock, a clock at twelve o'clock" Wang Xiu felt that Gan Rong had something to say, and couldn't help but be excited.

Gan Rong hesitated slightly, and then said categorically: "The disciple is not sure, but regardless of the size, it is barely possible to choose other materials instead." ”

"In a few days, I will come to watch the grandfather clock, and there will naturally be a large amount of financial and material resources invested to support your research, so let's make one first, be luxurious, and don't spare the cost." Wang Xiu got Gan Rong's assurance, and suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, as long as he took out the real thing, he would have a way to get money, and the table clock was a strange commodity.

"Thank you, Chief." Gan Rong is overjoyed, although the funds are sufficient, but they can't do as they like, and there must be a limit to spending money, and arbitrary expenses must be minimized.

"The steel elasticity is too difficult, but it is also necessary to step up the suppression, it can be at any level, it can withstand the propulsion and explosion of the yellow ante, and the steel arm of the strong crossbow is okay to slow down, anyway, the future of the strong crossbow weapon is not big, and the energy should be more focused on the development of tubular firearms." Wang Xiu is very solemn, the crossbow is a weapon that is gradually being phased out, and now it seems a bit wasteful to study the steel crossbow arm to replace the mountain mulberry wood.

The existing divine arm bow has a range of more than 270 steps, a bed crossbow at 400 steps, and several tests of the steel crossbow arm have failed to meet the requirements of actual combat, either the range is not enough or the steel is tortuous.

He only tested the toughness of steel, and did not intend to develop weapons that were about to be eliminated, and tubular weapons were beginning to take shape, and the unexpected birth of yellow medicine accelerated the pace of development of tubular weapons, even if it was a successful development of smoothbore guns.

Once the steel can meet the requirements of the bow and crossbow, it will also meet the minimum requirements for tubular weapons, which need to be refined and compounded on the basis of regimental steel, which can create a batch of expensive crossbow arrows that can be equipped with special mission troops. At least steel can be used instead of copper, and the crossbow machine of the god arm bow can be standardized, so as to maximize the interchange of parts and eliminate a large amount of waste on the battlefield.

It must be said that the standardized production in the pre-Qin era is now a system of products, which is simply a great waste of productivity, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, the standardized production of the military industry must be put on the agenda, even if the ancestors play with the leftover things, the descendants of the ancestors can not throw it away

Just when he returned to the state office, he unexpectedly found that Wang Qing suddenly killed, Youqin Mo Yan led his daughter, and was accompanying the strong woman to laugh, seeing him coming, he gave a look and hurriedly hugged his daughter out to play.

Wang Qing pinched his waist and stared at Wang Xiu watching, without saying a word, as if he was holding his stomach
