"It's not impossible to catch thunder and lightning in the sky, it's just that thunderstorms are not something we can control now, and the time and location of thunder and lightning are uncertain, and the cost is so high that it is scary and not cost-effective."

Alan shook his head slightly, not appreciating of catching lightning.

Hearing that she could really catch thunder and lightning, Windsor looked Alan up and down, and asked softly, "Is it a gap in knowledge, how do I feel that you are talking about an impossible thing." ”

"You've seen the explosion of nitroglycerin explosives, and people outside say that I have mastered the power of the gods' flames." Alan shrugged.

"Indeed, the explosion of the explosive pack is about as powerful as the punishment of heaven."

Windsor didn't deny it, and after finishing speaking, he was stunned again, and muttered to himself: "Yes, even the flame power of the gods can be mastered, why can't you master thunder and lightning." ”

Thinking of this, Windsor gasped.

Technology is really a terrifying force, it has changed the lives of ordinary people and made life extraordinary.

However, the growth of science and technology requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and a strong industrial base, which does not mean that you can make it with an idea.

Windsor followed Alan to the chemistry laboratory, where candles had been lit at the moment, and the experimenters were working on their own laboratory benches, blazing brightly, not noticing Allen's arrival.

When the doorman saw Allen, he saluted quietly, not daring to disturb the orcs inside.

I heard that the experiment inside was very dangerous, and if you loudly alarmed someone's work, you might find an explosion, so the doorman didn't dare to scream when he saw Alan coming.

When you enter the chemistry room, the first thing you see is a long corridor with hundreds of experimental rooms.

The laboratory is no longer the original small laboratory, after several staff expansions, personnel changes, the scale of the laboratory has become more than 100 times larger, the first generation of experimenters have also been promoted to the leader of the experiment, each team leader manages a laboratory room separately, and guides his subordinates to produce chemicals.

There are a total of 1,500 people in the chemical laboratory, most of whom are tasked with producing mercury thunderate, and every day people send cinnabar to the laboratory, where the experimenters heat mercury sulfide into mercury, and then use nitric acid and ethanol to produce mercury thunderate.

Allen's arrival did not alarm the taskers, Allen took Windsor to a large laboratory, knocked lightly on the door, and waited a few seconds before the door opened.

"Lord Allen."

The test director who opened the door was surprised, thinking that Alan had come to inspect the hall to inspect the quality of the orcs' chemicals.

"The miners have discovered wolframite, your task is coming, extract tungsten and make tungsten carbide high-speed tool steel, this is the ore just discovered today, take it to warm up first, I will teach you to do it." Alan took out the black ore in his hand for the orcs to observe.

"Tungsten ore! It is said that the melting point is as high as 3,004! The experiment director was also surprised, even ecstatic.

The incredible melting point of tungsten ore made the experiment director wonder if Alan had made it up, and now he could test it.

No, there are no 3,400 degrees of high temperature conditions in the laboratory, and the experiment supervisor is a little disappointed when he thinks about this, and feels a pity.

Three thousand four hundred degrees, that is a very terrifying high temperature, even the blast furnace of the ironworks cannot reach that temperature.

Alan waited for the other orcs to finish the work at hand, and then called the orcs from the other labs over.

The space of the large laboratory is relatively large, which can accommodate more than 100 people, which is convenient for many people to observe and learn the technology at the same time, and then the team leaders will teach their experimenters by hand.

The experimenters saw Allen personally hands-on the operation, and devoted all their attention to Allen's hands, the sound was in the ears, and the brain was overloaded to listen to the lecture.

"To make tungsten carbide, you first need to extract the tungsten in the ore to make tungsten powder, and then mix it with carbon black and carbonize it ......."

Alan walked back and forth, his voice had a wonderful magic, which could make the orcs listen to it in their hearts, and the brain unconsciously conjured up a 3D three-dimensional operation dynamic map, the more he listened, the deeper he listened, and there was a sense of happiness of "learned".

After a long experiment, Alan and Windsor walked out of the lab, it was already dark, and the lab behind them was still brightly lit.

It is more dangerous to do experiments with candle light sources, and the rest of the people do not do mercury thunderate, only do some experiments without the risk of explosion, a three-shift system, and produce chemicals at all times.

"Chemistry experiments, how to say it well, are really amazing, and there is a sense of accomplishment in exploring the secrets of the world." Windsor looked up at the starry sky, her eyes reflecting the pure starry sky.

Alan also looked up at the starry sky and sighed, "Yes, chemistry is to explore the secrets of the world. ”

Speaking of secrets, the ultimate competition of the main god counts, it must be counted.

He doesn't know when the player will log in, so it may be fast, after all, the time flow of the two worlds is different, some are fast and some are slow.

From his past experience, the more important the plane, the slower the flow of time than the Overworld.

In other words, five years have passed in the main world, and he may have only been here for a few months, or maybe only two or three years.

……

The next day, the southern mine sent a large amount of wolframite, and the chemical laboratory joined forces with the steelmaking plant to start making tungsten carbide high-speed tool steel.

At breakfast time, the orcs received the morning report, and when they opened the first page, they saw the words wolframite.

"Wolframite, what's that?"

"I don't know, what does the electric light mentioned in it mean, does electricity refer to thunder and lightning in the sky?"

"I'm curious about what electric lights look like, but Lord Allen said in it that the generator is still in the manufacturing process, and we haven't used electricity yet, and the focus is on using tungsten ore to make tungsten carbide high-speed tool steel."

Most orcs don't have a strong knowledge of chemistry, and chemistry and physics are two subjects that orcs have a hard time learning.

Young orcs are easy to accept these new concepts, and middle-aged orcs have a fixed worldview early, not because they can't accept it, but it takes a certain amount of time to run-in.

"Then again, even we find it hard to watch, can the orcs from other towns understand?"

"Hehe, I've heard that the printing house prints 4,000 copies a day for export to other towns, and I want to know how they look when they read the newspaper." There were orcs who smiled and gloated.

"Let's go, the gate of this point is also open, and merchants from other towns can come in and purchase, and see what their expressions are." One of them was proposed in a bar, and was immediately approved by the hordes of orcs.

"Let's go, go to the theater!"

The orcs happily slipped to the door of the printing house, where they waited for the merchants of the other town to appear.

The gates of Tomorrow City are open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and merchants from other towns can only enter and leave Tomorrow City during this time, and are not allowed to stay overnight in the city.

It was still early, and the orcs got up early, chatting at the printing door for an hour, before they saw the merchants from other towns appear.

The first merchant to appear was Olivee of Pearl Harbor, with a chubby belly, a shaved chin, and a cheerful round face, who was a salted fish seller and a side business selling live fish and the Tomorrow City newspaper.

The orcs of Tomorrow City saw the salted fish merchant Olife appear, and they all looked at each other with strange smiles.
