"Let the machine liberate people's productivity?" Thunderbolt Zhenren's eyes lit up first, as the master of the refining hall, although he is a scum in arithmetic, but for things related to "tools", he feels the most keen, after all, machines are also a kind of "tools".

"But what's the benefit?" Yun Yu Zhenren asked from the side.

"Let me ask you, how long will it take for Qingling Island to refine a spirit armor now?" Cheng Li asked instead of answering.

For this question, Thunderbolt Zhenren was naturally the best to speak, and he said proudly without thinking: "Refining a spirit armor requires 1,300 processes, 37 refiners work closely together, and it takes 10 days to complete!"

"However, due to the fact that after this great war, the number of refiners on the island has been greatly reduced, and there are currently only 92 refiners left, at most they can be satisfied with refining two spirit armors at the same time. ”

As soon as Thunderbolt Real Man finished answering, Cheng Li immediately said.

"37 people, it takes 10 days to finish. Even if we refine two at the same time, in the remaining half a year, we will refine at most 37 spirit armors! If you think about making 37 spirit armors in half a year, what use can it be, it will not help at all. ”

Everyone in the audience looked at each other a little, and finally they were old friends.

"In the past thousand years, it took us a thousand years to create 50,000 spirit armors. However, due to the low percentage of cultivators driving spirit armor, the island spirit armor has always been in a surplus situation of oversupply, so we have not pursued much for the speed of manufacturing spirit armor. ”

It is also true that before Cheng Li improved the spirit armor drive system, the proportion of cultivators on the island driving spirit armor was less than 10%, and in its heyday, only 10,000 cultivators could drive spirit armor, and the use rate of 50,000 spirit armor has not exceeded 20%.

After the war, there were 30,000 spirit armors left, and there were only 20,000 cultivators, and only about 5,000 people could drive spirit armor, and the use rate of spirit armor dropped to 16%.

Although after Cheng Li improved the Spirit Armor drive system, the people in the Council of Elders also discussed the issue of the use rate of the improved Spirit Armor, and finally they came to a conclusion that about 18,000 cultivators could drive the Spirit Armor at that time, and the remaining 12,000 Spirit Armors would be selected from among the 150,000 mortals.

Even with the improved Spirit Armor drive system, the success rate of mortals trying to drive the Spirit Armor is much lower than that of cultivators, according to their assessment, it is only about one percent, so these 150,000 mortals can barely pick out 15,000 people to drive the Spirit Armor in the end.

In this case, there will still be 3,000 units of spirit armor left, which can be kept as a backup replacement.

In this way, it is just right.

So after this, no one in the Qingling Island Elders Church thought about speeding up the problem of creating spirit armor.

"So, we didn't think about making spirit armor, because even if we did, not so many people would use it. The old man finally said.

However, he didn't want to, but Cheng Li said: "If you say that you can make the existing three types of spirit armor: such as the Shadow Number, the Tiangong Number, and the Wufeng Number, then even if you build it, you can't find so many people to open it." According to my estimates, even if the Spirit Armor drive system is further optimized, with the hardware of those three standard Spirit Armors, the mortal driving rate will not increase much.

"But...... Who said I was going to make the three existing types of spirit armor? I was going to make a brand new, special spirit armor designed for mortals!"

"A special spirit armor designed for mortals?"

Everyone was shocked by this incident.

Cheng Li looked at everyone's stunned appearance and continued: "The existing three standard spirit armors are all specially designed for cultivators. No matter how I optimize the software, the objective hardware limitations doom it to not be a spirit armor suitable for mortals to drive. ”

"Therefore, I naturally want to design a special spirit armor to greatly simplify the hardware structure and make it easier to operate, and such a spirit armor is easier to manufacture and easier to maintain!"

In Cheng Li's imagination, the spirit armor originally refined on Qingling Island is equivalent to a German tank, and what is even more exaggerated is that the spirit armor on Qingling Island is all hand-refined, and they are extremely exquisite.

And Cheng Lili's newly designed mortal spirit armor is equivalent to a Soviet tank, cheap to use, easy to mass-produce, and easy to operate.

The mortals on the island are too fragile, no matter what, if they can be protected by the spirit armor, even if the spirit armor is broken and simple, it is better than nothing.

"In my imagination, if this special spirit armor is used, combined with a specially designed and optimized drive system, then the driving rate of mortals can be increased to fifty percent!"

"Fifty percent?!"

Hearing this astonishing ratio, everyone was a little numb with shock in their hearts, and then they calculated a little, there are 150,000 mortals on the island, then 75,000 people can drive special spirit armor, although everyone present still does not know the specific situation of the special spirit armor and what the combat effectiveness is. But just this amount can form a new force that cannot be ignored!

For a while, everyone's hearts were on fire.

But they immediately thought about the speed of manufacturing.

"So that means that 75,000 new special spirit armors will be made in this half year? At least 400 spirit armors will be created in one day......! It's completely impossible?!" Thunderbolt immediately pointed out the most critical issue.

According to Qingling Island's current speed of only being able to build two spirit armors in 10 days, everyone present imagined that even if Cheng Li's newly designed spirit armor was greatly simplified and the manufacturing speed was increased, it was at most the speed of making two spirit armors in one day, right? This was already 10 times higher than the previous speed, and everyone present, even if the most optimistic was old, the most extreme state of the imagination was only like this.

However, this speed is still 200 times higher than 400 units built in one day, and this gap makes everyone feel that this is impossible.

"Indeed, if it is still built by hand according to your refining hall before, even if the spirit armor I newly designed is simple, it is already the limit to be able to increase the speed by ten times, because this is the limit of manpower. ”

"However, the limits of human power are far from the limits of machines. ”

"This is the greatness of industrial manufacturing that I just said, after using machines to liberate people's productivity, through assembly line production and modular design, we can let machines help us greatly improve the speed of production and manufacturing!

"According to my design expectations, if the newly designed special spirit armor is greatly simplified in structure, and then large-scale industrial manufacturing is realized through machines, then the manufacturing efficiency will be at least 100 times higher than that of manual labor!"

"And it also has a huge advantage, that is, the requirements for production workers are not as high as your requirements for refiners! The resources for cultivating a refiner can completely train hundreds or thousands of skilled workers!"

"Therefore, once industrial manufacturing is realized, it is a crushing advantage over traditional manual refining, just in terms of production speed!"

"Therefore, if the industrial manufacturing of spirit armor is used, then it is completely possible to create 75,000 new special spirit armors in half a year. ”
