Chapter 236: Hydraulic Looms

Tool transformation is a big deal, however, Lu Ya has heard from Berry Lifu in the past two days and learned that there have been a lot of spies wandering within the scope of Black Rock City recently. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"How many have you caught," Ruya asked casually, he was not surprised by this kind of thing, it would not be normal if there were no spies.

"None of them were caught," Berry smiled wryly.

"Well, why?" puzzled Ruya.

"The spies don't try to avoid us now, but they always ride wildebeests and probe in the open spaces around us, and they run away as soon as we get out, and they can't catch them," said Berry.

"Then ignore them for now, they won't be able to see anything clearly if they are far away, and there will definitely be a way in the future" In this regard, Lu Ya has no good way, mainly because he doesn't have much heart to care about this now.

"Well, I know too, it's just to see them upset," Berry nodded in response, and he was helpless against those who were like flies, so far away that he couldn't even shoot rockets, and as soon as he saw someone coming out, he immediately got on his horse and ran away, so that he couldn't do anything at all.

After the vignette, Lu Ya continued to devote himself to the transformation of tools, the first to accept the transformation of tools was the textile workers, the backwardness of the textile industry in the other world Lu Ya was seen with his own eyes, he had also seen the weaving process on the orc's side before, simple mechanical reeling wheels, spinning wheels, Looms, etc., Lu Ya has carefully looked at it, but for the use of rough machinery, even if he doesn't know anything about machinery, he knows that those things are backward, and if he wants to increase the output of textiles, the role of textile machinery is irreplaceable, and manpower is sometimes poor, and the power of nature, such as the advantage of water power is self-evident, so Lu Ya has always had the will to develop textile machinery.

By bringing together hundreds of weavers, the improved Jacquard machine, the agiolome, the car, and the wire frame were soon ready, and the machines seemed to Ruya to be rudimentary, but they were much better than the ones he had seen before.

The weavers thought that they could start work now that the machines had been built, but upon inquiry, they learned that they did not know when they would begin, because the machines they had made were sent to a 'research institute' in a building on the other side of the steel mill that night.

After living here for a few days, the name of the institute was already known to them, and it was one of the most sensitive locations they couldn't set foot in, and it was much more heavily guarded than the steel mill.

Many of them have already been to the steel plant, of course, what they can see is also limited, but because they need to communicate with some blacksmiths, they were adopted to go to the steel plant several times, and each time they only finished the work on the periphery and were sent back, and they didn't see anything of the main production work of the steel plant, but even so, those who came back from the steel plant were shocked.

Although it is only the periphery, but the cold and hard steel structure in the steel factory, and many huge steel products that do not know the purpose of the purpose, they have never heard of the word workshop, and they do not know what the concept is, but those heavy steel machinery that only needs a few or even one person to operate, let them deeply appreciate the charm brought by machinery.

As the textile machinery entered the institute, the workshop where these people lived began to be renovated, during which some of them showed extraordinary talent and interest in machinery were led out by Lu Ya alone, what Lu Ya said to these people they did not know, but the next day most of these people happily moved out of the factory, and then they were not seen again for a few days after that, until someone accidentally saw a few of them outside the gate of the institute, they were sure that these people had gone to the institute。

Why are these people in that research institute, many people asked a few people who did not choose to leave at that time, but the answers they got were a little confusing, according to those people, when they were taken to Black Rock City, Luya and a guy named Iron Old Man met with them, and asked a few questions, and they were sent back after the first question.

"What questions are you asking?" Someone asked.

"Patriarch Luya said at the time that after the contract expires, he must return to his hometown and stand up first"

"And then?"

"Then a few of us stood up and were sent back, and we don't know the rest"

Those who can enter the institute are Lu Ya's own observation during this time, and let people collect information to pick out some, good brains, like mechanical research 'talents', at the beginning Lu Ya planned to let these people join the institute, however, there are too many secrets involved in the institute, especially the five major materials that Lu Ya has been constantly filling, any one is taken out and obtained by someone with a heart, the consequences are unimaginable, so there is a question, whether the contract will return to his hometown when it expires.

Lu Ya doesn't want to coerce these people to research and develop science and technology for themselves, the twisted melon is not sweet, not to mention whether these people are better than those in the current research institute, at least if there is always a stalk in his heart, even if he leaves someone, I am afraid he will not be able to leave his heart.

So after the first question brushed off a group of people, Lu Ya asked several questions in a row, such as whether there are uncontrollable factors that must return to the human territory in the future, whether he can accept living in the orc territory for the rest of his life, etc., although those who were singled out didn't know what Lu Ya was asking these for, but they all answered truthfully, in fact, most of them answered no.

If they really have any concerns, how could they come all the way to the orc territory, there are many craftsmen like them on the human side, and most of them choose to work here with the caravan because they can't get along in their original places.

Finally, after some questioning of the people who remained, Ruya said, " I have a very promising job that I would like you to take over, and the salary for this job starts at ten times your current salary, and there are all kinds of benefits that we offer in Blackstone, and you can also get a lot of bonuses for each project you complete, to ensure that your standard of living can reach the level of affluence and even luxury, but, but only if you join my Blackstone tribe from now on, become one of our members, and you will not have any contact with the outside world for a short time."

Then Ruya gave them a booklet, and a contract scroll, which contained some simple information drawn from the five books, and most of them were only half-filled. The contract scroll is naturally a contract to join the Blackstone tribe.

After reading that volume of information again, and thinking about what Lu Ya said just now, these people can already guess Lu Ya's intentions to some extent, they are not stupid, they don't need Lu Ya to say more, and they also know that if they want to be able to study the artifact and machinery described in that booklet, they don't know what it is used for, and the confidentiality work is extremely important.

Although once they agreed, it meant that they would never be able to return to the human world, they all chose to stay and join the Blackstone tribe.

There is really nothing in the human world that is worthy of their nostalgia, originally they lived at the bottom of society, if there is no accident, they will always rely on their skills to eat, they can't support and starve to death, until they are old, as for those things that the big people in the upper class enjoy in their lives, they can't have any hope in this life.

And if you agree to Ruya, although you can't return to the human world, you can now enjoy those lives that used to only appear in dreams, and these are all earned by your own efforts, and there is nothing to be vain, so the next day, these people moved into their new home 'research institute' without hesitation for a long time in the future.

All kinds of living facilities in the institute are very complete, throw away the thick walls and watchtowers outside, the environment of the whole institute is still relatively good, and all the facilities are complete, rest area, work area, experimental area, The entertainment area is clearly divided, and the institute does not have a 9-to-5 working hour system, on the contrary, the time of the institute is very free, except that you can't leave the Black Rock City at will, there is no problem if you don't go to work for a day or two, as long as it's not malicious and lazy, the researchers have no problem even if they go back to their residences to study.

But in fact, anyone who can enter the institute can be said to be one in a hundred, one in a thousand talents, for a certain field or several fields have far better understanding and experience than ordinary people, even if there is no experience, at least have a heart to love research, so the atmosphere in the institute is often the best portrayal of unity, tension, seriousness, and liveliness.

Since these people entered the research institute, according to the report of the old man of the iron, all the research has achieved gratifying results, even with the urine of the old man of the iron man, he can't help but praise those human beings are indeed extremely talented, and their brains are also good. However, the old man also mentioned the heartfelt problems of these people many times, and Lu Ya also nodded seriously, he had already informed Bai Lifu to go down, and he would pay close attention to the movements of those human beings, and he would take action as soon as he found the signs.

Half a month later, the once empty factory building was divided into several areas, and the final assembly and commissioning of several modified 'automatic' textile machines was carried out in a separate workshop with a large area of land closest to the inside.

More than a dozen metal transmission rods on the wall of the workshop extend from outside the wall, they are connected to the waterwheel built outside, the back wall of the plant is the Heihe River, the name is casually called for a long time, since the first few months after the diversion and the dam was built, the flow of the river has been able to control, it is a good place to set up a waterwheel.

With the completion of the assembly steps, several craftsmen who have already learned to operate stepped forward to hang up the spinning thread, adjust the spindle, and then turn their heads and nod to the side, and then the worker in charge of the transmission rod slowly connected the transmission rod to the spinning wheel.

The buckle at the place where the 'click' connection was automatically closed, and the workers who operated the transmission rod shouted, and the people outside in front of them also slowly connected the waterwheel and the transmission rod after hearing it.

"Click~~"

After a series of slight casting running-in sounds, the metal transmission rod finally slowly rotated, more than a dozen spindles on the spinning wheel began to fly up and down, under the operation of the experimenters on the side, a white linen cloth was quickly formed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all the surrounding personnel involved in the commissioning, installation and research cheered happily.

Lu Ya also stood aside with a smile on his face and watched the spinning wheel run, and his expression was also difficult to hide his joy.

"Is this what you call the power of machinery, it's amazing," House followed Ruya, stunned at the miraculous scene.

"Hehe, this is nothing, for a real machine, this is not even an entry" Lu Ya's eyes were distant, and he didn't know what to think of.
