Chapter 73: The Industrial Revolution
Xianwu World
Boulderder
After Tiangongyuan
"Lord Enshrinement, Lord of the City, this is the second finished product established by the craftsmen of my Tiangongyuan according to the drawings and raw materials provided by Lord Enshrinement."
Luneng pointed ahead.
It was a courtyard surrounded by low walls, and the ground was paved with a kind of gray-white stone, covering a radius of hundreds of square meters, and there were no gaps.
It seems that the gray-white stone was originally produced from a boulder, and then carefully cut into a complete, regular ground.
Wang Pan knew that those gray-white rocks were simply made from a kind of rock into a fine powder called cement, and fired with sand and stone.
Among them, all kinds of whimsical ideas really shocked Wang Pan as a celestial man.
Ye Yu did not enter the yard in a hurry, but squatted down and buckled a small piece of cement stone, slowly kneaded it into fine powder, and felt the hardness of the cement stone.
"The quality of this cement is not as good as those military cement, nor is it as good as the cement used to build buildings, and even the cement used in daily households."
"However, for the Xianwu world, the cement that can only be made with the most primitive methods and recipes is already very good."
"I really didn't expect that the mountain range next to Giant Rock City has sufficient limestone and iron ore resources that are easy to mine, which saves me a lot of things."
The dust in Ye Yu's palm gradually sprinkled, and when he followed Luneng into the courtyard, he saw a huge container made of all-metal placed in it, and the surface was painted with danger signs.
Next to the metal container, two metal pipes with valves are opened, one of which acts as a faucet, and the other metal pipe leads to the ground.
Luneng stopped and said, "Lord Enshrinement, Lord of the City, this is the biogas tank forged by my Tiangong Garden, which mobilized hundreds of blacksmiths in Giant Rock City. ”
"Under the biogas tank, a biogas digester is set up, and biogas is produced at all times, which is fed into the biogas tank through special pipes for storage."
Luneng walked to the side of the biogas tank and saw a metal pipe with a diameter of about 50 centimeters, the mouth of the pipe was closed by a metal valve, and there were various biogas anti-leakage devices.
"Lord Castle, this is the filling port of the biogas digester, and we collect all kinds of waste from the city every day, crush it, and put it from here as a raw material for biogas production."
Ye Yu released his spiritual perception and probed into the biogas digester.
As a world with extraordinary powers, although the industrial system of the Xianwu world is extremely backward and almost non-existent, it also has advantages that the real world does not have.
That is, many things that the real world must do with the help of large machines, can be achieved here with the help of human power, and the difficulty is greatly reduced.
"It's hard to imagine that this kind of thing, which is comparable to modern craftsmanship, and in some places even surpasses modern craftsmanship, is actually made by a blacksmith with a hammer."
Ye Yu carefully sensed the biogas digester, and after the transformation of Luneng, various designs were more exquisite.
"But when you think about it, it doesn't seem strange......"
"In terms of real-world material processing, although it is possible to produce materials far beyond the imagination of ancient people, it has not fundamentally changed."
"Quenching, forging, tempering, melting, cutting, grinding, stamping, purification, ......"
"Except for man-made materials such as plastic and elastomer, the rest of the metal, wood, and stone seem to be materials that exist in nature."
"Although the processing skills are constantly refined, it has only reduced the cost of those materials to the point where they can be mass-produced, and most of them have not been fundamentally improved."
"Although the Xianwu World does not have an industrial foundation, with the experience of those craftsmen and the methods I provide, it may not be impossible to create a small number of high-tech materials in the real world."
Luneng asked people to take out a machine that looked like a car from the warehouse, and said, "This is a machine invented by our Tiangongyuan to reclaim farmland, a plow. ”
"This plough uses a steam engine as the main power source, and as long as enough biogas is provided as fuel, it can continue to cultivate regular farmland."
"There is no need to eat, no need to rest, as long as you can provide enough fuel and regularly replace worn parts, you can easily reclaim 10,000 acres of fertile land."
"In addition, we at Tiangongyuan are inventing similar seeders, fertilizer applicators, irrigation machines, harvesters, etc., which will greatly reduce manpower input and enable Juyan City to enter the era of semi-mechanized agriculture that the worship lord said."
……
"I hope that I will open the door of this technology for the Xianwu world, and it will not usher in devastating consequences before it has brought development to this world!"
Ye Yu walked out of Tiangongyuan, and Wang Pan and the others who accompanied him didn't dare to say much, and followed silently.
In the real world, the invention of the steam engine opened the first industrial revolution and the Age of Discovery, which can be described as a great leap forward for human civilization.
But the rise of industry has not come without a price......
At least after the start of the Industrial Revolution, the exhaust gases and dust produced by the incineration of fuel in steam engines turned the sky gray.
If it is only environmental pollution, Ye Yu can be indifferent, after all, just starting to develop industry will always cause these and those environmental problems.
As long as he paid attention to some industrial emissions, Ye Yu believed that with the restoration ability of the Xianwu World's environment, it was completely enough to eliminate the effects of those pollution.
It's just that the most precious thing in the Immortal Martial World is the abundant and active aura environment here, which can enable human beings to obtain all kinds of unimaginable abilities through cultivation.
Ye Yu didn't know if the development of industry would have devastating consequences on the aura environment, after all, the aura in the real world was completely stagnant, which was not enough to be used as a basis.
Once the environment is polluted, the aura of the Xianwu world will irreversibly fade, and even develop into negative energy, which will definitely be a catastrophe for the aborigines.
Think about the countless martial artists who practiced the Breathing Technique, and finally absorbed the first wisp of aura and became an acquired martial artist, but they inhaled a mouthful of exhaust aura energy.
That scene is so beautiful that I can't bear to look at it directly!
At that time, those martial artists may either be poisoned on the spot, or gradually adapt to the waste gasification of the aura energy, practice a body of pollution poison skills, and their bodies will be deformed and mutated.
"However, the development of science and technology in the Xianwu World is the best choice for development at this time, even if it is at the risk of the destruction of the aura environment of the Xianwu World, I have to do this!"
Ye Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.
"The martial arts of the immortal martial arts world are prosperous, and the development of science and technology is almost none, and my background in martial arts alone is simply not comparable to those martial arts families and forces that have been inherited for a hundred years or thousands of years."
"The only advantage I can rely on for a long time is to set off an industrial revolution, climb the science and technology tree in the Xianwu world, and improve the various social systems of the Xianwu world."
"Only in this way can I be comparable to those martial arts families that have been inherited for many years in a short period of time!"
However, Ye Yu is not blindly developing.
When Ye Yu decided to set off an industrial revolution in the Xianwu world and climb the science and technology tree, he tried all kinds of ways to reduce the impact of industrialization on the Xianwu world.
For example, biogas digesters......
Ye Yu didn't know whether there were coal and oil resources in the Xianwu World, let alone where these resources were distributed and how many reserves they had.
However, even if there are many of these resources, Ye Yu does not plan to use coal and oil as energy sources.
Although this is very convenient, it is too polluting and not renewable, and he even intends to completely cut off the fuel role of coal and oil, and simply use it as a chemical raw material.
Biogas is different......
Xianwu World is in the era of farming, industrial development is extremely low-level, most of the domestic and production waste, can be used as raw materials for biogas digesters, production of biogas and high-quality fertilizer.
Compared with the use of gasoline and diesel as fuel, the use of pesticides and fertilizers to increase food production is obviously the use of cleaner biogas as fuel and the use of biogas waste as fertilizer, which is more in line with the situation in the Xianwu world.
"And ......"
"The real world has a spiritual energy reserve far beyond the immortal martial world, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times, but I don't have a way to use it now."
"But the last mutant essence pill shows that those spiritual qi are not unusable, but there is no way."
"As long as I can find a way, even if the aura of the immortal martial world is reduced, I will be able to use the aura of the real world without being affected too much!"
