Yes, it's called the research institute, as the name suggests, this place is for the study of things, as for what to study? This is a lot, whether it is the old man who has been reminded by Lu Ya that he has been tested many times in alloy smelting, or the increasingly mature hydraulic stamping machine, or the rudimentary machine tool such as the drum machine, there is a special research area in it.

In the past, these research sites were interspersed in the steel plant, and various unfavorable factors such as noise and high temperature were very unsuitable for the old man and other blacksmiths to do research. Therefore, the establishment of a separate research institute is also on the agenda.

And now it is only the first research institute, its main role is also to study alloy technology and simple mechanical tools, Lu Ya plans to wait until the technology is a little mature to continue the division of labor, such as when there will be a special transmission machinery research institute, alloy smelting research institute, engineering equipment research institute, cold and hot weapons research institute and so on and so on...

However, with the current technical accumulation of the Blackstone tribe, of course, this series of research work is still inseparable, so they also use a research institute, but the general classification of personnel has been divided according to the strengths and hobbies of different craftsmen.

"Patriarch, according to your instructions, I have already divided these craftsmen into groups, and now they can all work independently," said the Iron Old Man, stroking the various research tools he had personally supervised and manufactured, full of pride.

"Well, Uncle Tie, now we are mainly overcoming three problems, the first is how to increase production that has been studied, although now the Shita tribe has begun to supply iron ore to us, but the overall output of steel is still a little unsatisfactory, and this problem will continue to be overcome. The second is about the problem of abrasive casting, now we have a series of scale tools, and the precision has been achieved today's highest standards, since this is the case, we must make good use of this, we do mass production, not the previous small workshop, in the accuracy of the problem must be grasped, and strive to do the best. Only when the precision of the abrasives meets the requirements can my next plan be implemented. The last thing to solve as soon as possible is about the gunpowder problem I said, you don't have to take the bullets to study first, even if you waste tens of thousands of gunpowder in it, you can't make it now, you just study it yourself according to what I told you, what one nitrate, two sulfur and three charcoal, you don't have to memorize, be flexible, since it's research, don't be afraid of failure, this matter is also the top priority, and the factory buildings of the people who are responsible for the research of gunpowder are all in an independent area outside, or as I said, this thing is not a joke, although the messy powder you made last time is very bad, but no one can guarantee that you will succeed that time, so the rules for experimenting with gunpowder must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations I wrote to you..."

After instructing the Iron Old Man, the institute was officially put into operation, and in order to protect these future 'scientists', Luya assigned each of them a wrestler and two slave laborers, the former was responsible for the safety of these people, and the latter was responsible for running errands for these people, serving tea and water, and spreading news.

As for the three things just instructed, they are indeed problems that need to be solved urgently, not to mention the increase in steel production, this research topic is believed to not stop in a short period of time, because unless the market is saturated, the problem of steel production will not disappear, and with the current capacity of steel mills to achieve market saturation is simply a fantasy.

The second research on the accuracy of abrasives is the most important, to know that if you want to develop machinery, you must first meet the accuracy conditions, machining accuracy refers to the degree to which the actual parameters of the parts are processed and the ideal parameters. The difference between them results in machining errors. The magnitude of the machining error reflects the level of machining accuracy. The larger the error, the lower the machining accuracy, and the smaller the error, the higher the machining accuracy.

Even if it is a simple mechanical operation, if the accuracy difference between the various parts is too large, it will not be able to operate normally, and if you want to mass produce a certain kind of parts, if there is a problem with the accuracy, it is the loss of a whole batch, not to mention that when there is no welding technology, you can only consider rivets and screws if you want to make large machinery, so there are strict requirements for accuracy, so the problem of precision must be solved.

And the third, the development of gunpowder, this is the most important, the reason why firearms are called firearms is because they use gunpowder to advance or explode the energy generated to achieve the purpose of injuring the enemy, gunpowder manufacturing is of course not simple, Lu Ya gave the 'one nitrate, two sulfur and three charcoal' is also just the simplest soil gunpowder ratio formula, the purpose is mainly to play a certain enlightenment role.

It is by no means as simple as imagined to make real qualified gunpowder, such as the three most common types, initiating charges, fierce explosives, and launchers and projectiles. According to different needs, it is naturally necessary to manufacture gunpowder of different properties.

For example, if a cannon is to be fired, and the shell should be ignited at the back, but you put in the detonator or explosive, you can imagine what the consequences will be. If you're going to open a mine and fill the blast site with projectiles, you're bound to see countless monkey performances, so gunpowder is very complicated to make, and it takes a lot of experimentation to make the ideal gunpowder.

As for the purpose of making gunpowder, of course, it was to make firearms, until the revolver, AK47, rockets, Grenades and so on, but all of them were bought by Lu Ya with magic crystals, and the guns and ammunition are all consumables, especially ammunition, firing two or three rockets means that a shining first-order magic crystal will disappear, a war, according to the consumption level of the Kuishan tribe in the first two times, it is the loss of hundreds of first-order magic crystals, so every time the consumption is counted after the war, Lu Ya has a distressed and heartbroken expression.

And if you want to curb this consumption, of course, you need to be able to make it yourself, but it is of course impossible to directly make firearms that can reach the power of those equipment that Lu Ya can summon now, and the advancement of weapons and equipment takes time and experience to accumulate, so the sooner you start researching, the sooner you can put it into the battlefield to save magic crystals for Lu Ya.

With the official use of the research institute, this building built between the Blackstone City and the steel plant has completely become the most heavily armed place in the entire Blackstone tribe, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry are not exaggerated, and this is only on the surface, there are still many secret sentinels lurking in their respective positions to keep an eye on their patrol range, to ensure that everything in the research institute will not be spied on by the outside world.

The reason why it is so strict is not unnecessary, because since a few months ago, the spies who have come to the Blackstone tribe to investigate the intelligence have been discovered, and without exception, these spies are all here to explore the various commodity crafts of the Blackstone tribe, and the owners of these spies are also extremely careful, none of the spies caught so far have said who their Gu family is, this is not to say how high the professionalism of these spies is, but these spies themselves do not know who their master is, and as time goes by, these spies are becoming more and more careful, and the probability of catching them has been greatly reduced。

According to the confessions of the spies who were caught, most of them were unintentionally tied up to see it as coercion and inducement, and no one had ever seen the real face of the employer, as for the accent, these people did not have a tape recorder, so what could they do if they could remember it, and they couldn't mention that they had seen people all over the world and let people say a few words, but there was a certain pattern in this, such as most of these spies were from the tribes in and around Boulder City.

In this way, even if it is impossible to determine who sent the spies, but the scope can be narrowed down to a certain extent, and Lu Ya according to his own judgment, he feels that these spies are also inseparable from those human chambers of commerce, speaking of the human chamber of commerce, the last time Lu Ya was angry with them, he left a lot of cruel words, but it seems that Lu Ya has long forgotten about this matter, during this time, he has been running both at home and the research institute, and all his energy has been invested in the research institute.

Although he himself does not have any systematic knowledge or professional experience to teach others, Lu Ya, who lives in the 21st century on the earth, has been exposed to some natural knowledge, common sense of life, and even hearsay in the past 20 years from childhood to adulthood, or some unintentionally remembered military or chemical knowledge is actually a relatively complete knowledge base, but Lu Ya can't classify them all into a system, and usually says whatever comes to mind.

Therefore, during this period of time, Lu Ya's daily task is to lead five or six recorders with more flexible minds, constantly recalling and sorting out those modern memories in his mind, and telling them for those people to write down, and then those people will classify them.

It's just that Ruya's thinking jumps too fast, sometimes when he is thinking about the law of leverage, his brain jumps out of the cylinder of the engine, and when he thinks of the collar on the cylinder, he suddenly remembers the phenomenon that lemons can generate electricity, and when he records some simple square formulas, he ponders what pi is after a dozen digits, in short, even if there are five or six recorders, sometimes they can't keep up with Ruya's train of thought.

But even so, the things that are sorted out every day are very impressive, and Ruya pieced together these fragmentary memories that he recalled and summarized them into five categories: mathematics, physics, chemistry, nature, and miscellaneous. Only after it was really sorted out, did Lu Ya know that as an ordinary person, he had invisibly remembered so much knowledge. (To be continued.) )
