Wang Gong is telling the truth, considering the overall level of social and economic development in the seventeenth century, especially in the early stage, even if we only carry out small-scale, experimental production and reference replication, there are many problems in front of us, so we estimate that if we want to complete the replication task of some working machine tools of the second generation, we will not only need to cooperate with other groups, but also take a long time to barely do it.

Note that this is not all, many key components take longer to produce, such as motors, bearings, crankshafts, etc., so our replication business may be carried out in a gradual substitution of parts until a piece of equipment is completely reborn...... I don't know if you can understand? ”

"It's okay if you don't understand......"

"Understood, there's nothing we can do."

"You'd better keep introducing, let's listen."

Everyone immediately responded.

"Okay, let's talk about one thing first, after crossing, our tools will be consumed sooner or later, may I ask, can the metallurgical group provide us with high-strength cutting tool steel? Note that this includes a wide range of steel for drill bits. ”

When he said this, Boss Luo's expression was very serious at this time.

"This, we can't make high-speed alloy steel for a while."

Huali shook their heads like rattles, and responded without hesitation, but the brothers looked at Boss Luo, who was speechless for a while, and felt that they couldn't just turn people away, so Huali An Hengtong Quan Zhenhai Ren Ke and a few people got together and whispered a few words, An Hengtong looked up and smiled at Boss Luo:

"We all know the various data and processes of smelting alloy steel, but there are at least four other metals, not to mention refining, even if they are refined, we don't know the composition!

Because we don't have reliable testing equipment, of course we can use other methods to detect it, but don't even try to figure out the exact data, this is a big problem, and Anna didn't provide us with enough testing equipment, and of course it can't be given to us, because we can't make these things independently for a long time. So he won't give it to us either. ”

"Really? I think you have some testing equipment there, huh? ”

"You can't do it yourself, can you?"

"Oh, yes, there are spectrometers in the aid list, and carbon and sulfur analyzers. But ......"

At this time, Huang Hai raised his hand and interjected next to him, adding:

"In fact, if we take time, we can also build a variety of testing instruments and equipment, but certainly not in a short period of time, and we can't say how long it will take."

"And the quality and performance are not as good as the original goods, because these instruments involve other industrial categories such as chemicals, electronics, materials, etc., and we will definitely not be able to rely on us alone."

Wang Gong also interjected in time.

"Yes, with just these two most common optical emission spectrometers and tubular carbon and sulfur analyzers, we are a little helpless, let alone other testing equipment."

Quan Zhenhai added.

"Is it really that hard?"

"Where are the real bottlenecks?"

Someone in the audience asked about the real bottleneck, and Hua immediately turned his head to look at Xiao Fei across the table and said with a smile:

"Xiao Fei, tell me, when will you be able to make electronic components such as tubes and diodes......"

Before Hua Li finished speaking, Xiao Fei hurriedly waved his hand and shouted:

"Brother Hua, everyone! Not to mention the semiconductor components such as electron tubes and diodes, even the most basic components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductance coils cannot be made in the short term! Guys, let me go! When will Mr. Zhao provide me with qualified glass lenses, and Brother Hua and Boss Luo can provide me with the most basic materials such as copper wire and silicon steel sheet...... Ay! Let's talk about the rest at that point! ”

Xiao Fei simply kicked the ball to the bigwigs in the industry, causing the venue to suddenly fall into a state where everyone had nothing to say.

"So Boss Luo, maybe for a long time, we won't be able to copy all the equipment, and we don't dare to use more of those instruments, what if it's broken? Is there a total shutdown?

Our civilization could not have been built on such a fragile foundation, so our strategy was to use the local methods that were appropriate for the time. ”

"Yes, gradual development, in this case, the time will inevitably drag on a little longer, so you have to be patient to wait for things like the Makqin machine gun that you can't forget."

Ren Ke responded.

"Well, we can actually get some simple testing instruments first, but the accuracy and quality are a little lower."

"It's still the same sentence, first promise to have, and then promise to be good."

"So, the quality of the final product must have deteriorated."

"The so-called stupidity, stupidity, and leakage are all ...... from here"

An Hengtong and others interjected to explain to everyone.

At this time, everyone in the venue was speechless, and the air was suddenly filled with this kind of wordless dullness.

At this time, Quan Zhenhai exchanged a few words with Huali, and after discussing a few words with his professional aid list, Xiao Quan stood up and said solemnly:

"Okay, everyone, I have to digress, now please listen to me, high-speed steel is indeed not in the short term to be produced, but we can use carbon tool steel instead, this thing after a period of experimental production, the test accumulation to a little extent can be made."

"Of course, Boss Luo, you need to overcome some difficulties, which is nothing more than relaxing some standards in processing and cutting quality, take your time."

At this time, Holley also hurriedly stood up and explained before triggering a big complaint and discussion among the whole people.

"Well, I actually expected this, but due to the poor temperature resistance of carbon tool steel, as you said, it will definitely affect the processing quality.

However, I have a second question here: how to solve the coolant? Well, it is best to synthesize cutting fluids, as well as lubricating oils. ”

Boss Luo smiled and looked at Zhao Xihe.

"Oh, this, we can produce ethylene glycol, of course there are other alternatives, well, something that can barely be called an emulsion, it's really not good, can you use sodium carbonate solution?"

Teacher Zhao replied calmly at this time.

"Hey! That's right! In terms of agriculture and animal husbandry, Wang and Zhu, you can provide butter, right? Of course, olive oil and fish oil are preferred, but whale oil is also quite ideal. ”

Zhao Xihe looked left and right, and while answering, he looked for Lao Wang and Lao Zhu of the agriculture and animal husbandry group.

"We have looked at the list, should be able to provide primary raw materials for lubricating grease, we understand everyone's concerns, after all, modern industrial lubricants are based on the petrochemical industry, but we currently do not have a petrochemical industry, so we can only rely on agriculture and animal husbandry to provide.

However, our main problem here is not technical, but the shortage of labor, and the initial solution is extensive open-range grazing, so I suggest that tomorrow we go to the small island in the south, and I feel that the island is a natural pasture. ”

It was Lao Zhu who spoke.

"Really?"

"Uncle Zhu, how many people do you want?"

"Let's take turns to give Uncle Zhu a hand!"

Lao Zhu was very happy to see that everyone was so actively supporting his work, and he immediately said in a loud voice:

"Listen to me, there is a big pond in the middle of the island, it is estimated that it is natural, the pond can exist until now, it must have been a little bigger three hundred years ago, I plan to use a fence to enclose it, and use an earthen wall to separate it, it is a comprehensive function of the pasture, in this way, there is not much manpower, because the sea is a natural wall, oh, I won't say more, Boss Luo, you can continue to talk."

Boss Luo nodded and immediately turned to Holley:

"Well, okay, now I'll talk about the bearing steel."

Before Luo Zhengyi finished speaking, he listened to Huali say:

"Boss Luo, please don't say it! You spare us, the bearing steel is really enough, you see, your third-generation machine can make do with it, right, let's try carburizing steel? ”

"Then you need to replace the bearings frequently, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the consumption is relatively large!"

"Let's not care about the consumption for now, okay?!"

"So everyone, by now, everyone should understand that the machinery industry is the most conditioned industry in the new world, right?

So don't think that we have so much machining equipment that we can build this and that, and don't blame the people in our mechanical team...... Ay! Without further ado, I'll continue to introduce you to ......"
