Chapter 7: Preparations
"Get up!" Betty knocked frantically on the door.
Zhou Feiyu is very speechless now, he needs to have lucid dreams to increase the time for studying, it should be like this, but the sound of knocking on the door forcibly pulled Zhou Feiyu out of the dream.
"Get up, stop screaming, it's noisy!" Zhou Feiyu got out of bed and put on civilian clothes and opened the door. Outside the door, Betty was slamming on the door when it suddenly opened, barely standing still.
"What are you doing. It's been three days in a row!" Zhou Feiyu looked at Betty with a frown.
"I'm doing the job of an older sister, waking up a brother who is lying in bed. Betty crossed her hands on her hips with a smug expression.
"Moreover, you yourself said that you wanted me to be your sister. ”
Zhou Feiyu understood a question at this moment, what does it mean to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.
"Don't care about my sleep time, I'm meditating, it's dangerous for you to call me out like that. ”
"Cut, pretend, okay, since you're already up, it's fine, breakfast is brought to you. As he spoke, he pushed the cart into Zhou Feiyu's room, and there was a red crystal on Zhou Feiyu's table.
Betty looked at the red crystal on the table with some surprise
"What are you buying this cheap crystal for?"
Zhou Feiyu sighed and said, "You don't understand, it's called rutile, it's a waste for you, but for me, it's a priceless treasure." ”
"This kind of crystal is not in good condition, how can it be priceless. ”
"I told you that you don't understand, I'm going to find Mr. Owen. ”
As he spoke, Owen picked up another drop of paper. and a small box
"I need to borrow Mr. Owen's forging equipment. ”
After Zhou Feiyu hurriedly ate breakfast, he and Betty came to Owen's research building. As soon as I walked to the door, I could hear Owen roaring like crazy.
"Why, what's wrong, the puppet still can't have self-awareness, why can't the algorithm be written correctly even though it's already been written?"
Zhou Feiyu frowned, it seemed that he had come at the wrong time, but what made Zhou Feiyu feel even more incredible was that Owen was studying the "program" but it was certain that he would not succeed, because Lanxing had tried to use other energy sources instead of electricity to implement AI, but they all failed.
It's a bit early, but it's time to show your cards.
"Betty, you go first, what you hear next won't do you any good. ”
Betty is also very knowledgeable, and the professional is the most afraid and hated that his research will be stolen, so he bows and leaves.
After confirming Betty's departure, Zhou Feiyu knocked lightly on the door twice.
"Come in. Owen's angry voice came from inside.
Zhou Feiyu pushed open the door, Mr. Owen was wearing a technician uniform at this time, and there was something similar to a magic array on the table.
"Mr. Owen, with all due respect, I have come today to apply for the use of your forging equipment. ”
"Go ahead and use it. ”
"Huh?" Zhou Feiyu was a little confused, he was afraid that Owen would refuse, so he prepared a lot of materials for an academic discussion, but Owen directly said that he would use it?
And that's good, because you don't have to talk to Owen about "real science" so early, which is more beneficial to you.
"Huh?" Owen seemed to notice the voice of the voice.
"Zhou Feiyu, what are you doing in the forging room, and what are you holding in your hand?"
Okay, I didn't notice it was myself in my anger just now, but your fire went out too quickly.
"I forgot that you are a genius that all high-level professionals in the Weapon Country are looking for, if you don't mind, let me see how your research is. ”
Zhou Feiyu smiled secretly, the story he made up is really good, in fact, the reason why he wants to show Owen a little hole card is a strategy that Zhou Feiyu has arranged a long time ago, although Owen looks very kind, but spending money to buy back the offspring of a senior professional, maybe there is indeed mercy in it, but there is a most suspicious question, that is, can he "help" Owen?
And Zhou Feiyu always felt that when he got along with Owen, there was something wrong that couldn't be said.
There is no free lunch in the world, and the position of this supervisor is just to stabilize himself first, and the real purpose is the core knowledge that he "learned" from his "father" from the machine country.
The situation in Owen's brain supplement should be: Zhou Feiyu's father is an extremely powerful senior professional, and he is a professional in the machine country. And you should have mastered a lot of secrets in the machine country, otherwise there will be no high-level professionals to chase and kill if you elope.
"That's good, guess. This is actually just one of Zhou Feiyu's assumptions. "There are some purposes that make it easier for a man to guess ideas than a mere fool. ”
Zhou Feiyu handed the materials he had written to Owen. And Owen saw the word in the title - "Alojo"
Owen looked at Zhou Feiyu suspiciously
"What does the word alloy mean. ”
"This is a new material that I have discovered, and we all know that iron becomes steel when it is forged, so why does iron become steel after it is forged?"
Zhou Feiyu bought a pass, and it was proposed by himself to continue to go down and others asked you to talk about it are two effects, and Owen was really fooled.
"It's kind of interesting, go on. ”
"I did an experiment, please see. ”
Zhou Feiyu took out three bottles from the box, which contained three kinds of metal sheets, and also filled a small half bottle of water.
"Please observe the corrosion. ”
"It's ······ No mana material?hmm······ This is steel, this is iron, this is copper. Alas, steel corrodes much more than iron and copper, which is it?"
"I think so, the refining process of steel should be with carbon, why do you use carbon when there is flint heating?"
"So I made a hypothesis, could it be that the composition of iron is changed when carbon burns, and although the steel is stronger than iron, it is more prone to rusting?"
"So since carbon can affect iron, if metals with similar melting points are melted together and mixed, will new metals be produced?"
"And there's also the problem that these mana materials are extracted from various ores, but they don't reflect this property when they are with other materials, which further confirms that metals are not the purer the better, but that they need to be supplemented by other materials, just like medicines. ”
"Hmm~ something interesting, I approved it, let's go, go to the forge room. ”
The two of them came to the forging room in a hurry, and there was a warehouse next to the forging room, but most of the storage was Mana metal, and there was only a little bit of Mana metal.
Zhou Feiyu looked at it and picked up a piece of iron and another metal material, Zhou Feiyu almost thought that there was no suitable material for another, friends who have studied architecture should know very well what material Zhou Feiyu wants, this material is metal - "chromium".
"According to memory, this ratio can produce very inferior chromium alloy steel, and the success of the first test is too doubtful, so the alloy produced is of poor quality, but the basic properties can be retained. ”
"The first 'stainless steel' of this civilization is about to be born from my hands, which feels a bit like the Book of Genesis. ”
"Mr. Owen, it's time to start experimenting. ”
Owen followed Zhou Feiyu's instructions and began the experiment.
Nearly noon, with a hissing sound, a metal that was completely different from ordinary carbon steel was born. The surface of the metal is polished and much more reflective than carbon steel.
Owen was quite excited, he could feel that although this metal did not have Mana, it was almost the same as magic steel, this was only the first test, and the ratio was not perfect, but this cheap metal could be mass-produced, and it was an immeasurable asset from both a commercial point of view and a power point of view.
"There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only interests are permanent. "British Prime Minister - Winston Churchill.
Zhou Feiyu frowned secretly, after brain development and learning cold reading, Zhou Feiyu clearly felt the trace of greed coming out of Owen's body.
"Is it because there are better alternatives to base metals in the world that are so cheap? The profession does not need to use equipment made of non-mana materials, I have previously launched metals similar to alloys, that is to say, the natural strength of mana materials is similar to some low-grade alloys, but the output is not much, but it is precisely because the output is not bad that no one has worked alloys, and it is not known in advance that the ratio of alloys requires a lot of testing, so the alloys made are unsatisfactory, so they have been eliminated in a long history. So this stainless steel······ If the strength is close to or exceeds that of the Demon Seed Mana material, then it means that it can be mass-produced, and mass production will be beneficial, and I ······ What a great opening. ”
At the same time, Zhou Feiyu also knows very well that he is likely to be killed because of this, Owen knows the importance of alloy, so he will definitely not easily let go of this piece of fat that reaches his mouth, if he is not strong enough, he is likely to be a tool for Owen for a lifetime, but fortunately, he gave Owen the illusion that I have no combat effectiveness.
In this case, it is a matter of time before I leave here, but it is by no means so easy, I need to strengthen my combat ability at the beginning, and before Owen completely takes away my ability to resist, my strength must reach a point where I can confront Owen head-on, and if I can, I can use my combat power to negotiate.
"Of course, this is based on the premise that Owen does have bad intentions towards me. ”
"Now let's start explaining the situation, I will be placed under house arrest in the castle, and if I force myself to leave, I'm afraid Owen will not hesitate to use force against me. Rain sound, activate the individual soldier agreement. ”
"Yes, activate the Extreme Individual Soldier Agreement. The list will be given to you at the right time. ”
As soon as Zhou Feiyu arranged Yuyin Owen, he was out of shock, Owen held Zhou Feiyu's hand tightly and said: "Zhou Feiyu, don't tell the second person about this matter, otherwise, you may be in danger." ”
Owen paused.
"And this research is not mature, and it will do you no good to leak it. You now want to complete this research as soon as possible, what materials do you need, you just say. ”
Zhou Feiyu nodded and said with an innocent expression: "Mr. Owen, it should be that the ratio is not accurate, I put the information here, I am hungry and want to eat." I'll come back and continue. ”
Owen smiled, "Go ahead." ”
After walking out of the door, Zhou Feiyu could clearly feel that Owen's aura seemed to have undergone some changes, but fortunately, he had already taken precautions.
It seems that Zhou Feiyu and Owen both have their own goals in their hearts, and who will be better in the end?
