012: It's a world of digging graves and picking up garbage
"What are you looking for a TV station to do?"
Wang Kunlun was puzzled, "Didn't that expose all your hands and feet?"
"You'll know when the time comes," Gao De pulled the corners of his mouth, and smiled at the honey of the turtle. "This is the key, just Zhongjing TV, they have the most influence. Find out if there's a ...... Forget it, I'll arrange the specifics. Don't be in a hurry for this first, take me to meet Lao Gu and Grandma Sun first, since I am in charge of the elephant training center, I have to know everyone and every corner. β
Wang Kunlun followed Gao De out of the door with some distraction, turned his head and made a gesture of "suspend action" with several heads poking out of the corner.
The compound of the mahout shelter covers a large area and is a transformation of the former military camp. In addition to the office building with two basements, warehouses, dormitories, canteens, and other facilities, there are also two factory-like buildings standing side by side on the corner.
"This is the ...... of the equipment workshop"
Wang Kunlun took Gao De into the factory on the left, and on the ground floor were all kinds of dilapidated steam cars, including nephew motorcycles, that is, partial three-wheeled motorcycles with buckets. There are also a number of unfinished iron cages scattered around, which are supposed to be animal cages used in the animal park.
"Our firearms and appliances are all self-reliant, Lao Gu specializes in this, and has been in our institute for more than 20 years," Wang Kunlun explained all the way from the slope at the corner with Gao De to the ground. "But we're just taking care of the aftermath, and we don't have much chance to work head-on with the supernatural, so I can't use my skills, so I repair the equipment and car and make something for the beast park. β
On the first floor of the basement are iron-smelting furnaces and blacksmithing shops, and there are countless materials and parts, such as small steam engines and the like, which look like underground factories.
"Lao Gu is very special," continuing to the second basement floor, Wang Kunlun began to pave the way for this mysterious general flag, "He can't see the sun, so he always shrinks underground." This is not only a workshop, but also his residence. And his appearance is very unusual, not to say scary......"
"Shouldn't everyone here be very special?" Gao De said disappreciatively: "It's all ordinary people like Wang Zongqi and Liu Xiaopang, I will be disappointed...... Yo ......"
When he spoke, he had already reached the second floor, and in the dim space, a very special figure crashed into his field of vision, which surprised Gao De a little.
It was an unusually tall, bald man, twisting his waist and striding in front of some kind of machinery as if he were doing a square dance. The muscles of the bare upper body are tense and the muscles are exposed. Because of the presence of the man, the huge space seems to have shrunk a whole circle.
Gao De roughly estimated that this guy is probably taller than Yao Ming!
"Old Gu!"
Wang Kunlun greeted: "We have come to the new hundred households, and we haven't come to see it!"
The giant turned his head, revealing the simple face of an old peasant, and was stunned, and came with a thump of steps, and the hot wind was far away and pressed down with the smell of sweat.
"Gu Qintian, the general banner of the elephant training institute, see the Lord of the Hundred Households!"
The giant's voice was rough and dull, and when he knelt down, he was still on the same level as Gao De, so that Gao De confirmed that this guy was indeed taller than Yao Ming, and it was estimated that he had gone two meters and a half.
"No courtesy," Gao De's vest was sweating, this guy's fist was almost as big as his own head, if he had joined the ranks of asking for leave and skipping work just now, he wouldn't have the slightest confidence to be able to suppress it.
"Gu Zongqi is as tall as the legendary Xingtian warrior," he tried to close, "Is it born like this, or does it have a special ability?"
The giant stood with his hands tied, looking down at Gao De, who was only at the height of his chest, and was silent.
it, this can also be cold......
Gao De picked his nostrils in embarrassment, and Wang Kunlun worked hard to round the field: "Is Lao Gu repairing the thunder bullet model again? That's tired enough, let's rest first." β
"Thunderbolt, is it a special weapon?" Gao De hurriedly walked down the donkey to the strange machine that looked like several refrigerators put together, "And this molded machine, we actually have this thing?"
"We don't only have this mold machine, but also the mold machine of bamboo steel and pottery steel," Wang Kunlun said as he glanced at the giant, who answered sullenly: "The thunder bullet is the bullet of the thunder gun, and it has a miraculous effect on the supernatural. This mold was brought from above twenty years ago, and it has been broken, and it has been repaired every day, and it has not been repaired yet. β
At this time, Gao De had already thrown the embarrassment out of the clouds, and kept turning around this mold machine, even touching and rubbing, and his mouth was slurking.
This thing is not an ordinary machine, and it can be made by simply throwing in the raw materials. The production process does not require any interference, and even electricity does not have to be connected, which is even more magical than the fully automatic intelligent production line in his previous life. The latter not only has strict requirements for raw materials, but also needs to be adjusted and repaired from time to time, while the mold machine is neither picky nor requires additional care, and can operate for hundreds of years without problems.
The first wall Gao De encountered in this world was related to mold machinery, when he just awakened the memory of his previous life, and found that the technology of this world was still in the steam age, and he was full of confidence and wanted to take the route of a technology tycoon. As soon as I touched this thing, I realized that I didn't know where to start.
Most of the things in this world that are related to complexity, precision, and mass production are made of molded machines, and even some molded machines are specially molded machines called "mother machines". The mold was dug out of the ground or fished out of the sea, which should be a relic of ancient civilization. All science and technology are based on the use of mold machines, and the so-called scientific research is only to make all kinds of minor improvements in mold products, except for studying how to start different mold machines and what is the use of something made by a certain mold machine.
In such an environment, what kind of groundbreaking technological inventions Gaode wants to make is tantamount to a castle in the air. Just like electronics, he had a bit of a foundation in electronics in his previous life, and at least he could solder simple circuits such as radios by himself, but the radio here was stunned and didn't understand whether the bunch of things that looked like glass beads inside were tubes or transistors. Fortunately, the family is not rich and can't afford to buy a TV, so if he really dismantles it, not only will he not be able to install it back, he will be hung up by his father and beaten, but he will have to go to the coal mine to dig coal for half a year to recover the loss.
Ambitious plans to invent mobile phones on the basis of intercoms, and even to create computers and the Internet, have come to naught. If you want to make some clever little inventions, you don't even have tools like ammeters and spectrum meters, so you just think about it.
After figuring out what is going on in the technology of this world, AutoNavi actually admires it very much. It's remarkable that people in this world can build cars, tanks, airplanes, trains, ships, and power plants from the molds they find by digging graves and picking up garbage, and build a complete steam technology society.
"It seems to be moving inside, what's wrong?"
Gao De had seen the molds that made small objects such as light bulbs, but he only looked at them from a distance. It's the first time that you've been in contact with a model machine like this, and it's a mold machine that specializes in making special bullets for people with abilities, so how can you not be excited.
"I don't know," said the old man sullenly, "it should be the wrong way to start it, or my heart is not sincere enough." β
What does your sincerity have to do with the machine moving?
Gao De didn't understand, but he also understood that he didn't ask a good question, and if he could know where the mold was bad, he wouldn't be human. Aurora people are not stupid who have not dismantled the mold machine to study the internal structure, but so far no one has been able to dismantle the mold machine and put it back on, let alone operate normally, so that "dismantling the mold machine" has become a felony in the Ming Law.
"That's a shame......"
Gao De rubbed his hands and sighed, it would be good if the mahout could make its own thunder bombs, at least it would have one more weapon to deal with the supernatural.
Still a little unwilling, he went around to the place where there were a bunch of push rod valves that should be consoles, saw a few things that looked like buttons, and pressed them a few times. The mold machine did not respond.
The giant behind him handed Wang Kunlun a look of "how can this little white face be so stupid", Wang Kunlun smiled bitterly and spread his hands, and gestured a few times, the giant couldn't help but didn't step forward to educate Gaode.
"Cultivate it slowly, don't be impatient, I fully support Gu Zongqi. β
As soon as the excitement passed, Gao De was dizzy and tightened by the turbid air underground, and hurriedly left.
"If you don't even burn incense and pray, you just touch the mold machine, what kind of person is this," When King Gaode Kunlun left, the giant shook his head and came to the mold machine to do his own thing. "I hope it's not like the guy I used to be, or I'll have a headache. β
The giant picked up a stick of incense and lit it, a special incense stick made from a mold machine, which was specially used to activate complex mold machines.
"Ring the bell once ......"
"Push the lever, start the piston and pump ......"
"Ring the bell twice ......"
"Turn the valve, light the boiler, and inject sincere ......"
"Ring the bell three times......"
"Sprinkle incense ashes and ask the ancestors and craftsmen to bless ......"
The giant held the incense and danced the square dance again, chanting words while dancing.
Stick the incense on the incense burner on the console and blow on it, allowing the smoke to spread throughout the console.
Then he pressed the button and waited with bated breath.
"What the hell is wrong?
As has been the case every day for the past twenty years, the giants are used to it, and they turn their heads and scratch their shiny heads.
The clanging movement came from inside the mold machine, leaving the giant stunned.
When the clatter turned into a thin buzz, the giant leaped into action.
"I succeeded!"
"Whewββ!"
The giant slammed into the ceiling, bleeding from the head.
