Chapter Twenty-Nine: Convenient Chips

"But I have to say that they really put their scientific research capacity and a large number of labor on the development and promotion of such marginal research because they don't have a better research direction. Pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhou Xin sighed in his heart.

Of course, although he thought so in his heart, on the surface, Zhou Xin still expressed extremely strong interest in this technology. After all, if you don't want to spend time researching, it doesn't mean that Zhou Xin doesn't want to learn about it when he sees ready-made results. Although this technology is unlikely to be used on the Voyager, if there is a chance to return to Earth, Zhou Xin does not mind promoting this technology on Earth.

It seems that this building material, which can grow plants, is indeed a very common item for the Norshans. As soon as Zhou Xin made a request, Fergtan agreed. He even told Zhou Xin that there was no need to make such a formal request at all, and that he could buy such things in a random street store. To prove it, he really asked the driver to stop, opened the door and walked out. In just a few minutes, Fogtan was back with a bag of things.

Curiously opening the bag, Zhou Xin saw that it was filled with a bag full of gray-brown powder. He picked up a little bit and rubbed it, and he could feel the powder with a distinct grainy feeling, like cement powder mixed with fine sand.

"How do I use this thing?" Letting the powder in his hand fall back into the bag, Zhou Xin asked curiously.

"Just add water and mix it and fill it into the mold." What Zhou Xin didn't expect was that the use of this thing was really similar to cement, but then Fergtan added: "Of course, if this is the case, it can only be used to build the kind of low-rise buildings with one or two floors, and if you need to build high-rise buildings, you need to mix with other materials, I think you should know this." Seeing Zhou Xin nodding subconsciously, he continued, "After it solidifies, it will become a porous material, and after being left naturally for a period of time, plants will naturally grow out of those small pores. Of course, this is just a primitive, and if you want to look like the surrounding buildings, you need to wait for the plants to grow a little longer and then plant a layer of plant seeds on them, and then you can take care of them in the same way as you would normally take care of the plants. ”

"It sounds simple." Zhou Xin said, and then he grabbed another handful of powder, "I just don't know if the production process of this powder is troublesome." ”

"It's not a hassle." "All the materials are very common," replied, "but the manufacturing process is a bit special, and when the time comes, I'll write you down the specific method, and you should be able to learn it." ”

"Speaking of shopping." Zhou Xin glanced around, and sure enough, he found that the surrounding scenes were exactly the same as those sent back by the detector, "These stores don't even have signboards, how do you tell what is being sold inside?" ”

"What's the sign?" Fergtan asked, confused.

"It's a marker that is used to distinguish between different stores and explain what is being sold in the store."

"We don't need that at all." Fergtan understood, pointing to his head and explaining, "We have a lot of information stored in the chip in our brains, including the entire world map. If I want to go to a place I've never been before, just think about it, and the chip will lead the way. It's the same with those stores, when I walk to the door, I automatically think of what is being sold inside, and I don't need any markers at all. ”

"Wow! It's so convenient! Ralph exclaimed. In addition to Zhou Xin and Dart, although Ralph and the others knew that the Norzans had a chip in their brains, it was the first time they had heard about the specific function of the chip. After the exclamation, she asked quickly, "What else does that chip do?" Can I store anything other than a map? ”

"Absolutely." "In addition to the maps, there are also languages that we don't use anymore, as well as the science and technology of the entire civilization. It can be said that we store all the information in each chip, and if we need any information, we only need a thought, and the information we want will naturally appear directly in our minds. Not only that, but the data in the chip is also dynamic, and once someone researches new results or makes new discoveries, these latest contents will also be uploaded to the chip at the fastest speed and become part of the public data. ”

"Doesn't that mean you don't need to spend time studying?" Ralph excitedly continued, "The most annoying thing I remember when I was a kid was memorizing. ”

"There's no need to study at all, I'm afraid it's impossible." Zhou Xin shook his head.

"That's right." Fergtan nodded and said, "Learning is still needed, but we have removed all the content related to memory very early in the learning process, and instead cultivated children's thinking ability and practical skills, after all, these two kinds of training cannot be completed by relying on a chip." When children have basic thinking and operational skills, they will be able to choose their own future development direction. Then, after a period of professional skills training, they can go out into society. The whole learning time is at least less than before the advent of chips. ”

"That's pretty remarkable." Zhou Xin sighed, "A small chip can save half of the time, which is at least five or six years, how many five or six years can be wasted in life." ”

"Yes, yes." Ralph nodded vigorously, "That way I can play five or six more years without going to school." Then she said yearningly, "It would be nice if we had such chips too." ”

Seeing that she actually thought so, Zhou Xin suddenly cried and laughed. Fergtan believed it, and he said, "If you really want it, we can really help you pack one." ”

"Forget it then." Next, Ralph's reaction was the same as Zhou Xin's, "I want to cut my head, just think about this kind of thing, I don't dare to really do it." Moreover, even if the chip is installed, all that is stored in it is your knowledge, and we can't use it. ”

"After installing the chip, you can also transfer your data to the chip." Fergtan continued.

"Forget it, it's not for us." Zhou Xin politely refused, "We are used to the way we are now. ”

"Once you've installed the chip, you'll be able to experience the convenience." Fergtan still went out of his way to speak......
