"Why do you think I know so many great template designs?"

Rowling's words are quite interesting questions, and they are indeed worth pondering.

In Winder's hometown, there is a saying that "knowledge is power", which is not a popular half-sentence that is not true, but it also reflects a universal attitude: in the vast majority of cases, knowledge is always important.

And this importance will become more and more valuable as the difficulty of acquiring knowledge increases.

This also applies to the Wasteland.

The reason why this world was named "Wasteland" by Wende is because its civilization has experienced a catastrophe and can hardly be called existence anymore. To a greater or lesser extent, science and technology and knowledge have been lost and disconnected. The vast majority of people are illiterate.

In such an environment, words are not something that can be learned if you want to, and the same is true of skills - the group of people who were rescued by Wende rushed to fight for the previous job of driving, because it was a very rare opportunity.

The basic stuff is already like this, like a template for strengthening the steel partner...... Naturally, it should be more exaggerated.

After all, in a sense, this thing can perfectly reflect "knowledge is power".

- If the template is as good as Rowling says, then a well-designed and reinforced Steel Partner is probably much better than a poorly designed Steel Partner, which is a very easy fact to prove.

So it seems to be more in line with people's nature to pursue interests that these enhancement templates are kept secret and always in the hands of a small number of people, rather than appearing in circulation.

So it's strange that Rowling knows so much about the templates—she doesn't look like she has too much of a position of power—and Winder couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, so he said, "I'd like to hear about it." ”

"Because it all comes at a price." Rowling smiled, "Every time you get a complete template design, you need to pay a lot of design fees to the provider. And every time they carry out reinforcement and transformation, they will also pay a certain fee. ”

......" Winder tilted his head a little strangely, and Rowling seemed to know what he was thinking, and further explained: "There are some parts that will be used in the renovation project, and those are unique to them, and they will almost have to be used, and the cost will be almost unsaved." ”

Winder nodded, and it sounded like a patent collection model unique to the wasteland.

"It's not entirely undemanding to get these templates – it's a fraction of the cost. On top of that, you'll first have to prove that you're good enough to use the templates; Secondly, they have to complete some of the requirements they specify - sometimes they exchange other template designs - so that the cost will be much saved; However, more often than not, the precious Zero element is provided. ”

Rowling continued, "I was able to get so many templates, one was to inherit some of the smaller designs that I had that I could use to trade; Second, Carter helped me a lot in the process. ”

Caterina waved her hand when she heard this, "Or Rowling, you work on your own, and don't those help me in the end?" ”

Rowling smiled gratefully at Caterina and said to Winder, "But even so, I only have the design materials of about forty templates, and all of them are limited to the field of motorcycle design. ”

Caterina added on the side: "Rowling's strength in the motorcycle type is second to none at the crossroads!" ”

This reminds Winder that since Rowling's achievements in motorcycle types are enough to prove that her skills are indeed good, she should find an opportunity to try to collect relevant knowledge into the database; And, helping her move into more fields seems to be paying off well.

However, this matter is not in a hurry for a while, at least you have to be familiar with her, and personally confirm whether it can be trusted before it is convenient to mention it.

Winder's focus now is, "Listening to you, designing a template to promote seems to be a very lucrative business." ”

"There will indeed be a lot of profit, and the cost of design materials is only a small one." Rowling said seriously: "The main reason that really promotes the promotion and circulation of the template lies in the factional differences!" ”

"As you have noticed earlier, these templates are still the 'underlying architecture' after the enhancement is completed, it is just a complete prototype, and you need to use more components to improve it if you want to really put it into practice......

"......," Winder frowned, "Listen to you, the specific parts used by the steel partners also seem to be incompatible with each other?" ”

"Incompatible? Well, it's a very figurative statement. Probably a translation problem, Rowling pondered for a moment before resuming it, "That's pretty much it." Template design is mostly from organizations that have the ability to delve into, and those organizations are not weak in the ability to design parts in addition to the ability to develop templates - in fact, those things are the things that are really in greater demand - so in order to emphasize competition, they will try to exclude the products of other factions in their composition. The promotion of templates is the product of this competition. ”

Rowling then gave a brief explanation of the factions, and Winder was a little surprised to hear that the Mechanicus Cult was actually among them, and it was even a large organization that was not weak.

“…… Although a little reluctant to admit it, the Mechanicus Cult is indeed very good at the design of the main gun, with fast muzzle velocity, high accuracy of landing point, and although the reloading time is only at the middle and upper level, it is enough. Combined with the fire control system they promote, they can give the Iron Companion and the vehicle a considerable advantage in mid- to long-range encounters......"

“…… The strength of the revival church is centered on the power supply. More power in horizontal contrast, a wider demand for fuel, plus durability and easier repair. Their faction's components have the lowest logistical needs, pressures. ”

“…… The 13th District pays more attention to the use of cutting-edge technology, radar exploration, and the technology of external perception system is very powerful......"

“…… Pyronica......"

“…… Brotherhood of the Wilderness ......"

“…… Guild Internal ......"

Rowling talked about the technical strengths of these factions one by one, and compared with the previous templates, the interesting points became more interesting.

It's no wonder that before Rowling said that these templates were close to perfection in the design range...... It doesn't matter if it's good or bad.

In fact, although they all highlight the advantages of their respective technologies, when it comes to the specific vehicles themselves, they can only be regarded as unsatisfactory, and cannot be called excellent as a whole.

…… It's no wonder that these templates are being rolled out on a large scale......

Winder has no doubt that there must be better templates within these factions for their own use!

So he was still a little curious about the template design before, but now he didn't have much interest, just asked, "Is there no way to use several products at the same time?" ”

"If it's an ordinary part, it's just that, and those high-end goods circulating in the market are not so easy to get. Generally speaking, if you go through the regular channels, they will only sell them to you selectively if they see that your steel partner or chariot is indeed using their own templates; And if it is those other channels, neither quantity nor quality can be guaranteed. And even if you do, there are technical limitations to how you want to use them together – it's very ......"

Rowling said, suddenly realizing something, and turned to ask Caterina, "Does he not know how the parts and weapons are made?" ”

Katerina wasn't entirely sure, "...... Probably......"

Or Wende himself said: "I really don't know. "In fact, I'm really curious why ordinary vehicles and weapons are not precious and sought-after goods in this world.

“…… How do you think they appeared. Rowling asked, a little mischievously.

Winder shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "Ah, it's probably a factory, big and small, using specific machines to make materials into finished products." ”

This is just a general statement, in fact, there will be a lot more processes to make raw materials into finished products than it says, and there will be many strict requirements for factories and workers - otherwise, it is difficult to mass produce qualified products.

And these are theoretically difficult to do on the wasteland.

Winder was confused here, and to say that at this time was just throwing bricks and stones.

When he said this, Rowling's expression was a little strange, "You know like this...... It's really like a young master from a shelter...... No! Even those shelters don't think that way now......"

Wende looked at her innocently, and Rowling stopped selling it, and finally revealed the mystery, "In fact, most of the production of technological products now depends on the ...... of the steel partner!" ”
