Gao Li's pursuit of force is actually very low, and he has hardly invested in force for such a long time. On the one hand, in his opinion, there is such a thing as force that has a state guarantee. He doesn't need to worry about it. On the other hand, he didn't want to waste money on it.

But now, it is located on the border, and the emperor is far away. As the prince, he has to be responsible for his own safety, and he has to be responsible for the safety of the whole city.

Guns, this can't be missing, this is definitely not missing. Compared with various conventional weapons, guns have a very obvious offensive advantage. Moreover, after the First World War, everyone has a deeper understanding of the weapon of the gun, the accuracy of metal processing has also been significantly improved, and the power of the gun has also been significantly enhanced.

Lizhuang has now entered the stage of full mechanization, making machines with machines, and the production capacity index has doubled. Gao Li sent an order to Li Zhuang, all kinds of long and short guns, let's talk about it first.

And then the ammunition.

Bullet, easy to say.

Medicine, that's a problem.

When you come to Yannan City, it is not too cold even in winter. The True Qi Silk Spiders brought by Xiu'er do not need to hibernate and can still find enough food to reproduce. There is no shortage of spider silk. But using these precious spider silk to make propellants is still a bit of a luxury. Because there are more and more deconstructions of Celestial Technology, a large amount of spider silk is needed as a true qi conduction material in Celestial Technology. Even the current number of silk spiders with a few zeros added to it may not be enough.

The key is to look at the reverse engineering of the technology of Tianren fullerene.

If this thing is really carbon......

Wait.

At this time, Gao Li, who was squatting in the latrine, suddenly thought of such a question: Have I ever told the scientific research team that those things that seem to be white sand may actually be carbon?

Hurried to the scientific research group, and there were a few more small ants in the scientific research group at this time. There is often a person who runs to ask the ant a question, and the ant will answer it immediately.

Seeing Gao Li coming, everyone basically nodded to him, and then went about their jobs. After all, scientific research is the most afraid of interrupting the train of thought.

Recently, celestial and human technology and evil technology have been emerging, and the scientific research group is also the busiest. Gao Li looked at it for a while, and felt that it was quite orderly and orderly. It was those little ants that made Gao Li a little strange, these little ants didn't do anything, just followed each group. Feel free to answer some questions, whether it be math or data that may need to be recorded. Gao Li found that no matter what question was asked, the ants could always answer it as quickly as possible.

It turns out that the memory of the little ant is so good?

Finally, Xiu'er's group was the first to finish. Everyone can finally take a break, and the little ant got some fruit for everyone to share.

Gao Li went over and asked, "Is the little ant also here to help?" ”

"That's right. The little ant laughed.

Hearing Gao Li ask, Xiu'er immediately smiled mysteriously and said, "My host, I guess you can't imagine how capable these little ants are!"

Gao Li asked, "How big?"

Xiu'er said: "A little ant is smart enough, smart." There are so many little ants whose minds are connected together, and no matter what questions I ask them, their minds can always think at the same time, and get the answers as quickly as possible! And not only arithmetic, but also all kinds of science problems, those problems that would have taken a long time, they can get the answers in an instant!"

This is!

Bio Computer!?

It has been said that a colony of bees or ants is similar to neurons in the human brain, and that individual neurons do not manifest consciousness. And when the number of neurons reaches a certain number, something called consciousness is formed. It has been speculated that bee colonies or ant colonies have a sense of community.

When Gao Li crossed, it was just in time for the wave of AI development, and many technology companies were researching their own AI chips at that time, and simulating neural networks was one of them. If these ants that link their minds together can actually coordinate their minds in a way that outsiders can't understand, and can share their mental computing power, doesn't that mean that they can really form a massive network of biological computers?

So Gao Li realized a problem, the number of small ants is still too small, how can it be done without hundreds of millions of neural units?

However, this is a long-term goal, and now Gao Li needs to solve the most difficult part of the celestial technology: the problem of fullerene.

"Carbon, you say these white things are a grain of carbon?" Xiu'er looked incredulous.

"I'm just saying it's possible, and I'm not sure. After all, I haven't seen it before, I just feel that this thing is very similar to diamond, diamond is carbon, and these things may also be carbon. Gao Li said.

"Boss, although I respect you very much, but can we not joke? How can a diamond be carbon? How pure and beautiful is a diamond, it is clearly a gemstone, how can it be black carbon?" Xiu'er immediately shook her head in disagreement.

"Really, I don't lie to you. "Gao Li Dao.

"Can carbon burn, can diamond burn?" said Xiu'er proudly.

"Absolutely. "Gao Li Dao.

"The porcelain craftsmen in the city have diamonds, let's go and see them!" Xiu'er said.

"Ah, it just so happens that one of my sisters is nearby, so I'll ask her to bring it here. A little ant said.

"Do you know where the other sisters are at all times?" Gao Li was a little curious.

"Yes, our minds are always together, we know where each other is at all times. "Little Ant said.

"It's really a convenient ability. Xiu'er exclaimed, "I really want to have such a large group of clones, can you help me make a group of clones?"

At this time, Gao Li was also full of envy: "Don't talk about you, I also want a bunch of clones." ”

Soon after, a little ant arrived, and instead of a diamond, she brought a few diamonds. It's hard and expensive, but it's not staggeringly expensive. Hardly anyone uses it except for craftsmen. The ants bought it from people at a very low price. Gao Li couldn't help but sigh, in this world without De Beers, no one is desperate for a piece of carbon.

When Gao Li burned the diamond in front of Xiu'er and everyone, leaving only some impurities and residues, everyone was shocked.

"Owner, is this really carbon?" Xiu'er still looked incredulous.

"Let's put it this way, you get some carbon, you get a place with high temperature and high pressure, the kind of pressure is extremely high, and after a while you will become like this, it's very simple. Gao Li said.

"It's, it's incredible. Xiu'er's face was full of disbelief.

"Do you remember that time, when I carburized in metal? There are a lot of interesting things about carbon, and there are carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon fiber, but that's all in the future. "Gao Li Dao.

"Okay, leave it to us, we'll make it a brilliant diamond!" Xiu'er said, patting her chest.

"Fullerene!"

"You'll be ready then!"

Forget it, whatever.
