Chapter 524: Build You a Car
This made everyone nod frequently, all along, it was Wang Yang's various hard inventions and creations that established the current country, which is a typical situation of replacing labor shortage with efficiency.
They've been there, so they feel the same way.
Zhang Er asked rhetorically: "According to your ideas, the fastest way to develop now is to send everyone out to find the metal and some items you said, and then find it?" Just let everyone help you open mines, and then you invent and create zΓ o? β
"Of course!" The two scientists agreed and presented their views and detailed plans.
"The idea is this, divide the population into many small groups, spread out, look for resource mines, and once you find iron and coal, you can make wrought iron, and then refine the coal, and then you can melt the molten steel, so that you have iron, and you have steel."
"With these two metal substances, it is possible to add other metals to synthesize more alloys, and it is possible to synthesize alloys while making zuΓ²stirling engines, developing an electrical energy base, and at the same time making steam engines to provide an industrial base."
"With a three-pronged approach, as long as progress is made on one side, there will be more materials on the other side, and there can be a big breakthrough, and then there will be a heavy breakthrough on the other side. The three aspects affect each other and promote each other, and it won't be long before we can enter the era of electric energy, and will we need so many people to work at that time? You can use all kinds of machines. β
"Even now, without high-energy combustion materials such as iron, steel and coal, we can make a Stirling engine, and we can replace some manpower!"
What he said is indeed a beautiful blueprint. Wang Yang nodded slightly when he heard this, why?
Don't say anything else. Just that Stirling engine, call a three-year-old child. You can also understand what the principle is, it's very simple, and there is also equipment in the school in this area, a jar, a little flame, you can start.
The structure of the steam engine is not complicated, and it is also very easy to make.
But the problem is that although it is easy to do, it is really applied. It's not necessarily that easy, and the effect is not too big.
Sure enough, Zhang Er grabbed two points and asked rhetorically: "Okay, what you said does make some sense, but this is based on the situation of finding other resources in a short period of time, what if you can't find it?" How much time is wasted? β
"Say it again. I also understand your theories, but I haven't learned them? And I'm also learning very well, but how much power can that Stirling engine have? You've got to fix it, right? You've got to experiment, right? β
"And. With kinetic energy, you have to transform, how to transform? How can I reduce the kinetic energy lost in conversion? These need to be addressed, right? Need to experiment, right? β
"Referring to the course of another civilization. They developed for three hundred years and officially moved to the age of electric energy. It stayed for a long time in the era of the steam engine, and the population was so large. With the support of manpower and material resources, there is this speed. β
"What about us? How many people are there? How long does it take? Can the speed be compared to others? β
"Take a step back, even if you find those resources, you have to mine metal ore, right? You've got to refine, right? You've got to extract the essence, right? You're going to have to give it a makeover, right? How much time does it take to do these many procedures? How many trials are needed? β
"More importantly, do you need manpower to extract resources? I don't know how much time it takes to find so many resources, do you need manpower? Does the extraction need to be manpowered? Does it take manpower to really build? β
"Have you counted? By the time you've done it all, you've already gone to another world. And only refine the resources, and don't think about anything else. β
"Not only did you smash time on this and go to another world, but we also had to smash time into it with you and go to another world."
is worthy of being a civil officer, every sentence is sharp, grasps the key points, wantonly criticizes, and cites the drawbacks.
And he is smart enough to know that he can't compare to those two people in terms of professionalism, and he doesn't talk about the professional knowledge at all, just talk about what everyone understands.
Hearing this, everyone nodded for a while, feeling reasonable, and the two of them couldn't turn the corner for a while, and they were speechless.
However, the two of them were very smart guys in the end, and their brains turned quickly, and they immediately launched a rebuttal.
"You talk nonsense, it was a waste of manpower and time at first, but that was at the very beginning."
"When we have the resources and create the first batch of tools, we can save a lot of time and manpower, and the more we develop, the faster we will be, and the more manpower we can save, and if you count these in, you can do it in less than 20 years."
"And the civilization you mentioned, you can't use it for reference at all, why are they developing slowly? It is because they started from scratch, blind people touch elephants, walk into many misunderstandings, and experience many failures and setbacks, which wastes a lot of time and resources. β
"Now we are copying their experience, copying their technology, we have goals, we know the process, we don't have to take detours, we don't have to feel the stones to cross the river, why do we need so much time?"
"Also, I can build you a simple engine right now, and I can make a car without the need for livestock."
Zhang Er immediately argued: "Your car is definitely not flexible, there are mountains and forests everywhere, and you plan to drive wild in the forest?" β
Two: "Let's go first!" β
Zhang Er: "It takes manpower to open the road. β
Two: "Let's build a bulldozer first." β
Zhang Er: "The terrain is uneven, there are mountains and pits in front, and manpower is required. β
Two: "We built an excavator, dug the mountain, and filled the hole!" β
Wang Yang: "Then the problem is, learn excavators...... Hey? Feeling that his sudden answer was a little weird, he waved his hand: "You continue." β
In fact, there is nothing to fight for this one, the two will not give in, they believe that their plan is more beneficial to the development of the country, and the detailed plan is a bit empty.
But from a macro perspective, this can indeed achieve some results in a short period of time.
And it can be used "on a large scale", and this "on a large scale" has to be put in quotation marks, because their idea is that it will be used by such people.
How many people are there in the country at the moment? More than 3,000 people, oh no, there should be 4,000 people.
In another 20 years of development, there will be only tens of thousands of people, which is not as good as a county in later generations.
With such a small number of people, their inventions and creations are enough to meet their own needs.
On the basis of self-sufficiency, it has suffered for several generations and has been happy for thousands of generations.
From the perspective of a country's macro development, or as a period of history, it is equivalent to a good start, and the starting point is high enough to be the best foundation for building a grand empire.
If you have the heart to be the first emperor of the ages, you can force everyone to be bitter, at least for generations.
So the question is, is Wang Yang a guy who wants to be the first emperor of the ages?
Of course not! At first, this guy thought that he would not be eaten by wild beasts, and then he thought that he would not starve for the rest of his life, and then he thought that he would live well, and that he had to let others live well, and it was better to be happy alone than to be happy.
Although he has established an empire now, he has passed the emperor's addiction, but his purpose is to build a world that is divorced from primitive society, and he is very suspicious that without a system, it will not be long before the one he has worked so hard to build will collapse.
This is to play a role in stabilizing dìng, he wants to keep his hard work, not to be an emperor through the ages, what he wants to be the emperor the most, is to be a faint monarch who indulges in lust every day.
It's a pity that the conditions don't allow it, and this era does not produce beauties.
He wants to pass on the fruits of his hard work for generations, but there is no need to make himself miserable haha, just let go of a leisurely life.
There are many ways to pass it on.
Seeing that Wang Yang didn't express his position, and Zhang Er kept asking questions and criticizing his plan, the two couldn't sit still, gritted their teeth and asked: "You said we can't do it, you can do it!" β
"Aren't you advocating for the development of the workforce? How to develop? Counting ovulation as conception? After a few years of development, or stagnation, is it useful? The population base is so small, you can still pop up a whole bunch of people? β
Everyone felt that what the two said was very reasonable, the development of science and technology, but you can still see the shadow, you develop the population...... Is it true that you have to calculate the ovulation period to conceive? Everyone looked at Zhang Er.
Zhang Er said unhurriedly: "I can really conjure up a lot of people!" β
Wow! Everyone looked at Zhang Er in disbelief.
I saw Zhang Er say unhurriedly: "In the past, we also had a shortage of manpower, and at that time, Wang Yang asked everyone to divide into teams and go out to find people. β
"It seems that there are not many people living in this world, at least tens of thousands, and we are only a small one."
"And how did we get there? But in just 20 years, we have grown from 20 to 3,000, what if we find all of them? β
"Even if we don't find all of them, only some of them, one or two hundred thousand people, how many people will we have in ten or twenty years? How much is the workforce? How much production can be produced? β
It's a huge set of numbers, hard to calculate, but enough to make people happy, and think about how crazy it must be to think about the scene when the population exploded to more than 100,000 or 200,000 people more than 20 years later.
"At that point, wouldn't it be easy for us to find resources? Countless hours saved. β
"Moreover, the larger the population base, the more geniuses, are you afraid that there will be no scientists? It's easier to invent something new. β
"More importantly, what do you need at that time, 200,000 people wave their hands, and where everyone goes, I'm afraid that they won't be able to meet their needs?"
"If you want me to say, when will it really be prosperous?"
The two of them waited for Zhang Er to speak, attacked his plan, and immediately pointed out a point: "Then we can develop first, and after ten or twenty years, we can pave roads, build cars, develop science and technology, and drive all the way, isn't it faster?" (To be continued......)
