It looks a bit like a mechanical clock, full of gears and some mechanical structures, but it's clearly not. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The rectangular shape resembles a small coffin, and on the surface there are wheels marked with the otherworldly numbers zero, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eight that have just been designed......

Liang Kai glanced at the banana and asked unexpectedly, "What is 158 plus 274?" ”

"What?" Banana was stunned.

Liang Kai smiled slightly, didn't force him, and began to turn the wheels on the surface of the machine, eight in one position, five in ten, and one in one hundred; Then add four to the single digit, add seven to the ten, and add two to the hundred...... Then turn the rocker, and you can hear the sound of constant gear turning.

There was a row of empty windows above the machine, and the gears with numbers on the bottom rotated, quickly frozen on the 432.

"It's ......," Banana widened. I couldn't believe it, looked at Liang Kai, and then looked at the machine, and quickly pulled my fingers and calculated. His IQ is still quite high, and it took a while to get the result, which was 432!

Gasping for air, he snatched the machine from Liang Kai's hand, and continued to calculate and verify it in disbelief.

[Lie down, calculator? Advanced! There was also an uproar in the live broadcast room.

[Bogo! Awesome! When will I bring my iPad notebook with me? 】

[That's not a calculator, it's an adding machine!] Sixteen or seventeen worlds! There are also relatively well-informed netizens who have announced the correct answers.

That's right, this thing is called an addition machine.

It is a work of the industrial age that uses the principle of gear transmission to realize addition and subtraction operations by manual operation, and it can also be said to be the prototype of a mechanical computer.

In the 17th century, the Frenchman who once swept France and designed and built the first adding machine was called Pascal.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it? That's right, it is the discoverer of Pascal's law, which designed the water fracking bucket experiment, which is still preserved in physics textbooks, and the founder of the hydraulic press, which is very important for large-scale industrial equipment in modern times.

Liang Kai, of course, this is not Pascal's original, which is more delicate and efficient than that.

First of all, the world is a nine-base system, not a decimal system, and it is more convenient to convert the gear occlusal system, and secondly, although he himself can't figure out the principle of the addition machine, is there an engineering expert in the project team, even if there is no genius of Pascal, after all, there is an advantage spanning hundreds of years, and it is not too difficult to further optimize the prototype.

Bananas are still being verified by calculations, and they are even a little crazy.

Don't underestimate these things made by Liang Kai.

Especially telescopes, microscopes, and adding machines!

Although it may seem common in modern times, you must know that when these things were born on Earth, each of them caused an unimaginable sensation!

The telescope broadened the horizon and made Galileo famous in Europe, but as the "father of modern mechanics" and "the father of modern science", the giant who stood on the shoulders of giants as Newton said, optimizing the telescope is just the icing on the cake;

On the contrary, the effect of microscopy that broadens the world from another level can be seen even more.

The microscope made Leeuwenhoek, a man with no formal education at all, go from a silk merchant to a member of the Royal Society, a guest of Queen Anne of England and Peter the Great of Russia. If it is put into modern times, it is equivalent to promoting a person who has not gone to elementary school to an academician, which may be more exaggerated than this......

As for the addition machine, modern people don't know much about it, but at that time, the same impact was unprecedented!

Why?

Because this device proves that it is perfectly feasible to replace human thinking and memory with a purely mechanical device!

When the installation was exhibited, people rushed to see the sensation that caused a sensation in the city, and its popularity and influence could be compared to the popularity of Apple's smartphone tablet when it was released on the modern earth.

Not to mention that there are some other good things beyond that.

After repeated verification, confirming that this small machine can indeed count, Banana looked at Liang Kai's eyes full of horror: "This, you, how did you do it?" ”

Apparently understood the meaning of the representation. Yukina Fimina also had a similar expression.

In another world, the appearance of the addition machine is very amazing, and in this world without an abacus, it will obviously be even more amazing!

Liang Kai couldn't explain more, because he didn't understand it himself, so he had to throw out a copy of "The Making Principle of the Addition Machine" and let them read it by themselves.

After getting the materials needed to go to the mountain city to dredge and dredge, Liang Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and he was finally able to get busy with his own business.

Of course, the so-called "own" business is still someone else's business after all.

After a period of rest, the power of transcendent creation had a margin again, and this time, he needed to do something new, something more important.

More important than telescopes, microscopes, adders?

Of course!

Rulers, weights, thermometers, barometers...... These are intended to unify weights and measures.

Three great rivers flowed down from the sacred mountain, crossed the continent with a twist and turn, and joined together somewhere. The city built here was called Trois-Rivières Castle, and the principality became the Principality of Trois-Rivières.

The south is called the South River, the north is called the North River, and the thickest, largest and most dangerous in the middle is not called the Middle River, but the Tianhe.

The way the Atlas is named is often as simple and crude as that.

Nanhe County is at a bend in the middle of the Nanhe River.

The river alluvial has created thousands of acres of fertile fields, dense forests and lush greenery. However, it is in the dark period at the moment, and I can't see these flowers like splendid paving the city.

The South River is a tributary of the three rivers, and the South River itself has tributaries.

At the fork of a river several zhang wide, pedestrians come and go, and from time to time some people stop to watch curiously.

Around the Xingmen platform built by the river, people are busy, and the sound of "tinkling bells" is endless. All kinds of strange things appear from time to time, making people look at it uncertainly.

This is the corner of the outer city of Nanhe, and it is rarely visited. But now it is a dark time, and the city is full of people, and these corners are not immune.

In the dilapidated tavern, the four-star mage Sanvar Ge hooked up with the coquettish and old-fashioned dancer, and ate with drunken eyes, and heard the bell of the star tower in his ears, so he got up unhurriedly, got out of the tavern, turned over and stepped on his sloppy mount, and ran towards the river.

There is a bridge over the river, but it's too far away. Sanwal Ge rode an eight-legged flat riding beast like a bamboo row and went directly into the water. The beast could swim, and the water splashed all the way to the other side, soaking Sanvalge's clothes as if they had been fished out of the water.

But in a moment, the man and beast landed on the opposite shore.

The remote star gate that rarely opens to a small town in the countryside here has a rare popularity. Something seems to be different......

However, the drunken Sanvar Ge didn't bother to pay attention at all, and the beast stopped and said lazily: "Well, this mage is here." (To be continued.) )
