Chapter 14: Making Money (Part 7)
The war readiness material distribution center is not a secret material warehouse with signs such as "no fireworks" and "outsiders stop" as imagined.
The distribution center was nothing more than a spacious, bright metal shack like a factory, with no walls around it that had not been sealed, and there were no mountains of equipment and supplies in sight, only material conveyors that occasionally flashed blue or red.
This kind of material conveyor is exactly the same as the material conveyor table that received the equipment of the recruits before, and its function is almost no different from the vending machine in the old time and space, it is nothing more advanced, and it sells things directly through material teleportation.
Li Yi walked up to a material conveyor table, searched for and entered "blank memory chip" on its virtual control panel, and the relevant information was listed on the light curtain.
In terms of capacity, the minimum capacity is 1G, and then 10-100G-500G-1T until the ultra-large capacity 1000P blank chip is sold.
The price is quite cheap, 1 point of military merit corresponds to 1G capacity chip.
As for the stock, it's all the symbol "∞" - it means an unlimited supply, as much as you want.
Li Yi tried to spend 1 point of military merit to buy a blank chip with 1G capacity.
I saw a burst of white light flash on the munitions platform, and a card slot the size of a transparent keychain appeared on the platform, and the blank memory chip was quietly inserted into the card slot.
After taking out the chip and taking a closer look, the unknown biological genetic material was as transparent and soft as a contact lens in the previous life, and it didn't look anything special except for a small silver dot in the center that was imperceptible to the naked eye.
In the cognitive memory that Li Yi has absorbed, the manufacturing principle, materials, and processes of the blank chip are missing, which requires further absorption of memory chips with related skills to know why.
However, this doesn't matter to Li Yi.
Do you have to learn how to build a car if you can drive?
At least for now, Li Yi is not interested in doing such scientific research work for the time being.
Li Yi took out the blank chip, stuffed it into his tactical watch, and then gave a certain command through the memory processor.
After waiting for a minute and a half, the system beep sounds.
Li Yi hurriedly took out the chip in the tactical watch, looked at it again and saw that there was no difference, and he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know if his money-making method was successful.
He did it in full accordance with the money-making methods introduced in the "World Encyclopedia" and the "General Chapter of the Rite of Passage".
It is mentioned in the memory that since human beings can absorb the memory cognition stored in the memory chip through the memory cognitive system for our own use, then in turn, the memory chip can also be made in reverse through the memory cognitive system, which works just like reading and storing hard disk data.
The manufacturing process involves buying a blank memory chip that has been manufactured in batches and inserting it into a memory reservoir, such as a tactical watch.
Then, the host gives the memory processor in the brain a burning instruction, and the memory processor will organize the memory content that needs to be burned according to the host's requirements, and then wirelessly transmit the memory content to the memory reservoir in the form of biological brain waves with the help of the brain, and the memory memory reservoir will store these brain waves in a blank chip in real time.
In the end, the blank chip becomes a memory chip with memory cognitive content, which can be exchanged for military merits or directly sold for star coins.
In fact, all the memory chips absorbed by human beings are made in this way from their own brains, not by batch burning of some mechanical and electronic equipment.
The reason is that the human brain can only absorb the memory cognition in the form of biological brain waves, but cannot absorb the information of ordinary radio waves, otherwise it is a computer instead of the human brain, and only the human brain can create biological brain waves, so the memory content on the memory chip must be burned by the human brain.
It is precisely because of this that once the brainwave memory cognition in the memory chip is absorbed and extracted by the brain, the memory chip will be immediately scrapped and cannot be reused - just like the "cutting" function in the old space-time computer system, once it is cut into the human brain, the content on the memory chip is gone.
Therefore, the memory chip is actually the wool from the sheep, some people are constantly using their own brains to make memory chips, and at the same time, some people are constantly buying and absorbing the memory chips made by others to obtain the memory cognition.
In this way, a huge supply and demand market and circular economy chain have been formed.
Every moment, there are astronomical quantities of various memory chips that are manufactured and consumed by human beings themselves, and many manufacturers are replacing the money and military exploits earned from selling memory chips with the memory chips they need to absorb.
But there are two flaws in this supply and demand market.
One is that when the brain absorbs the memory chip, it can't burn and manufacture at the same time, and vice versa.
Another problem is more serious: the speed at which the brain burns memory chips is only half the speed of absorbing memory chips, and its speed is directly proportional to the value of the recognition quotient, that is, the higher the knowledge quotient, the faster the memory chip is burned.
Why is this happening? Nobody knows.
Human scientists are still conducting technical research and project research on related topics, but so far, no effective solutions have been found.
Due to the existence of these two hard injuries, coupled with the continuous expansion of the new human population, the memory chip market has not been able to form a balance between supply and demand, and the demand has always exceeded demand, making the price of memory chips continue to rise, and many advanced memory chips are even difficult to find a source of goods without a market.
In order to alleviate this relationship between supply and demand, in order to maintain the basic stability and normal operation of the country, the North Wharton Empire, as a country with a sound system, has always implemented strict control policies for its own memory chip market.
In the Northern Wharton Empire, not only did it prohibit the private and public sale of memory chips, but also encouraged people to make as many memory chips as possible, and even made it mandatory for their citizens, especially the nobles of high knowledge, to burn memory chips on time and in the right amount and as required.
The state, on the other hand, would make compulsory purchases at market prices in unlimited quantities, at no time, and in the same category, and this was even written into the Imperial Constitution as a national obligation.
Because the burning and manufacturing of memory chips is related to the life and death of the country and has extremely high strategic significance, it is explained in great detail in the "General Chapter of the Coming-of-Age Ceremony".
And it is also specially stated that the military merits obtained in exchange for manufacturing memory chips belong to primitive military merits, which can be used for officer promotion ratings, and its purpose is to encourage a large number of imperial soldiers to get more memory chips to make up for the country's chip supply gap when they are fine.
And the way Li Yi found a way to make money was to make memory chips with his own brain, and then sell them to the official to earn star coins or military merits.
This method of making money is actually universally known, everyone knows it, and everyone is doing it, and it is not a secret to making money.
But!
But!!
But!!!
The important turning point has to be said three times - Li Yi is a demon with a natural knowledge quotient of up to 115 points!
What will happen if a business-savvy demon uses this way to make money?
In almost all the basic cognitive memory chips about knowledge quotient, why do you have to say one sentence - knowledge quotient determines a person's wealth?
This sentence is definitely not a broad and extended sense, but has real practical significance!
As long as you have a high level of business knowledge, you must not be short of money, and you don't need to rely on others, you can make money all the time!
When the operation of the memory and cognitive system was completed, Li Yi was surprised and couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar, not only because knowledge of intelligence can speed up learning and cognition, but because the benefits of knowledge of intelligence have far exceeded his expectations!
In addition to learning quickly, making money quickly, and enjoying aristocratic privileges, are there any other benefits of high business literacy?
Of course!
But Li Yi didn't put his mind on this at the moment, and when it came to the end, he was a little bit troubled by gains and losses.
He didn't doubt that this way of making money would be viable, he just doubted...... That's it?
If you invest the cost of 1 point of military merit, you can earn back 100 points of military merit in 1 and a half minutes?
Isn't it too fast? Isn't it a bit unreliable?
Even burning a disc on a computer isn't that fast, right?
With this feeling of gaining and losing, Li Yi carefully placed the experimental manufactured chip on the material transfer table, and then gave the order to sell it......
