Chapter 11 What kind of bicycle do you want?
Other than the humming sound of the von Neumann machine and the occasional metal crash, the mother plane looked no different than usual.
Feng Chen stared at Feng Neumann, and he had a slight feeling of witnessing history in his heart, he didn't know how the future history books of the shelter would record this moment—if there were history books in the future of the shelter—but he sincerely hoped that the person who recorded history would write "Feng Chen's press of the button opened a new era for the shelter." In this way, only in this way can he prove that he will give full play to the functions of the von Neumann machine in the future, and bring something completely different to the shelter.
Feng Chen didn't wait long.
Soon, one of the von Neumann's shipping gates opened and pushed something out. Everyone immediately gathered around and looked at the products produced by Feng Chen: two slender wheels were fixed on a bracket with good stability at a glance, and above the bracket was a seat, and Liu Jing noticed that there was a transmission structure installed on the wheels behind them, which was connected to the lower half of the bracket.
Liu Jing's tightly clenched hands let go, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, the thing was successfully produced, and the mother machine did not call the police - it seems that Feng Chen has carried out the correct operation, which is a good start.
But then, she was confused by what was in front of her:
"Feng Chen, what is this?"
She didn't want anything useless, all the resources of the shelter had to be focused on survival.
Sure enough, the shelter never produced. Thinking like this, Feng Chen came to the side of the thing, patted the seat, and said with emotion: "This is a bicycle, a very, very valuable means of transportation, there is a saying in my hometown - what kind of bicycle to want, refers to extravagance beyond need, excessive things, enough to show how precious bicycles are." It's easy to use and easy to learn. ”
No one answered, and it was clear that no one present understood his nonsense, nor could they imagine what kind of vehicle this thing was. After a while, Liu Jing frowned and said, "You mean, this thing is very valuable?" ”
Valuable things are also unnecessary.
Feng Chen couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, he coughed twice and said, "It's not precious." It doesn't take any expensive materials to produce it, it's just that some ordinary metal is used. I say it's precious because...... Well, because there are so few bikes in my hometown – I'll show you how! ”
Everyone got out of the way, Feng Chen skillfully stepped onto the seat, and with a kick of his feet, the bicycle jumped out. Then, he became the most beautiful boy in the shelter, wherever he rode, everyone's eyes followed, he rode a circle, everyone's heads followed (fog), and after riding five or six laps, Feng Chen stopped in front of Liu Jing.
Ptolemy had a surprised expression on his face, and Chen Mingyue also opened his mouth slightly.
This bike is so moving! It's amazing!
"There's this stuff — well, if you have a bike, it's going to be a lot easier to go anywhere in the future." Liu Jing gave an evaluation.
"Definitely. However, cycling is not just about pedaling, you also need to master your balance, which is not difficult, you just need to practice. Feng Chen got off the bike.
"I'm going to try!" Ptolemy was like a loose husky, and he was the first to rush forward.
Three seconds later, Ptolemy's cries rang out in the room: "Oops, oops, oops! Why is this thing so hard to ride! Feng Chen's stuff, how can I not?! Again! ”
After another three seconds, there was a thud, and Ptolemy hit the wall with his bicycle.
Liu Jing couldn't bear it, hesitated for a moment, and said to Feng Chen, "The bicycle won't be broken, right?" ”
Feng Chen couldn't help but smile: "No." ”
Not only Ptolemy, Zhao Yali and Chen Mingyue were also very interested in bicycles, so Feng Chen produced two more for them to ride and learn. Feng Chen and Liu Jing chatted in front of the console.
"Although there is no in-depth understanding of the von Neumann machine, well, the mother machine." Feng Chen said: "But for me, or for everyone who knows Chinese characters, it is not difficult to control the von Neumann machine of the current mode. How to do it is clear on the screen, I just need to do it step by step. ”
"So can you guarantee the continuous and smooth operation of the mother machine?" This is the foundation of the shelter's survival, and Liu Jing is most concerned about this.
"As long as there are no unexpected failures of the mother machine, it will not be a problem." Feng Chen said and smiled: "Do you know how many kinds of things the mother machine can produce?" Its total production list lists millions of products, food, clothing, daily necessities, transportation, production tools, and everything you can think of and can't think of, it can produce almost everything! It's the mother machine, the machine that can produce everything. Ensuring the basic survival of a shelter is not even a warm-up for it. ”
Liu Jing looked at him with a frown.
"It's just that the mother machine is currently lacking too many raw materials, and I just looked at it, the internal situation is also a bit messy, and it can't play its full performance, but I believe that as long as we work hard, the machine can return to full production. At that time, all kinds of supplies will continue to pour out like sand outside, and you won't even be able to use up, and you will definitely not have to worry about survival anymore. Feng Chen said.
Liu Jing didn't speak for a while, her expression was complicated. After a while, she said, "Although you seem confident, I still have a hard time believing what you said, the supplies are gushing out like sand or something, and it sounds like a mythical story." I think it's nice if you can keep the shelter running. ”
Can't believe it...... Feng Chen felt that this was nothing, as long as he continued to improve the von Neumann machine and give full play to its performance, the leader of the shelter would believe it sooner or later.
"What are you going to do next?" Liu Jing asked.
"Take a look at the manual. The mother machine usually asks Chen Mingyue to maintain it, and I just come over to see it a few times a day. In fact, the mother machine can be produced automatically, and it has relevant programs. Otherwise, the production of millions of commodities would not be controlled by the human brain in any way. ”
Say something that people don't understand. Liu Jing thought. However, she nodded and agreed with Feng Chen's plan.
Overall, it's a good result! Liu Jing felt more joy in her heart.
At this moment, Zhao Yali and the three of them came over pushing their bicycles, and the posture was like middle school students who were leaving school together. Zhao Yali smiled and said loudly: "I succeeded just now!" Rode for dozens of meters! It's like flying! ”
"Okay, okay, I know you're going to ride. I've ridden more than 10 meters! But it's so tiring to ride this thing, it's not suitable for me at all! Or sleep most comfortably. Sister Liu, the mother machine will be handed over to Feng Chen in the future, right? Chen Mingyue said.
"No," Liu Jing shook his head: "In the future, you will still be responsible for the daily life, and his main energy is to study the operation manual, at most a few times a day." ”
Chen Mingyue was originally unhappy when she looked at it, but now she is even more unhappy: Ahhhh That's a lot of work!
Seeing that everyone didn't speak again, Ptolemy's face changed a few times, and he smiled flatteringly: "Feng Chen, can this thing produce more?" ”
"What's wrong?"
"I figured that if I got on my bike outside, I would always move faster, so I thought of some plans for those bastards in the diagonal zone—"
Ptolemy laughed particularly sinisterly. Feng Chen and Liu Jing glanced at each other.
