It's not just the Duchy of Statine who wants to take advantage of the winter to do something, but also the Count of Satsuma.

Taking advantage of the weakening of the flow of the Sandy River in winter, the Sandy River Riparian Renovation Project in the overall renovation plan of Bangta City took the opportunity to speed up the progress and began to clean up the sediment from the riverbed.

In this clean-up work, the newly developed large-scale magic excavator of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was officially unveiled for the first time.

Compared with the small magic excavators that were generally used in farmland transformation before, the newly developed large magic excavators are much worse than those excavators on the earth, and can only be pulled around by horse-drawn carriages, but the base and digging arm are basically imitated, as long as they are placed in the right position, the excavation efficiency can basically be the same as those 2.0 specifications on the earth.

With the help of the magic machine, the sediment removal of the riverbed went very smoothly, and it only took two months of winter to basically clean up the sediment accumulated in the Sandy River in the Bangta City section of the river in the past few years, and the entire riverbed dropped by nearly five meters.

At the same time, the excavation of the canal connecting the Sandy River to the Rum River has also begun on the downstream section of the Bonta City.

Porter, who led the project, estimates that it will take about a year to a year and a half to get the canal through.

In view of the plan to renovate the banks of the Sandy River and the future opening of the canal, the Count of Satsuma prepared to start the construction of a dam at a location upstream of the Bangta River under the construction of Xu Yi.

In addition to flood control and water storage, the dam also has another function that Count Satsuma has not yet told Count Sù, that is, it will be used as a hydroelectric power station in the future.

If it can be built according to Xu Yi's vision, then even if the flow of the Sandy River is not large. The hydroelectric power station is also capable of generating enough power to meet the needs of Bonta City.

However, Xu is only a mechanical engineer. But I am not so familiar with the power generation profession. So even though he developed a wind turbine powered by magic, he couldn't immediately develop a hydroelectric generator, or even build a corresponding hydroelectric power station.

Therefore, when building this dam, Xu Yi could only first tell President Cruise some of his own considerations, so that the Amrley Chamber of Commerce would leave enough space for adding hydroelectric generating units in the future when building the dam.

When researching hydroelectric power units, Xu Yi found a very important problem.

He may be able to combine magic with his knowledge of mechanical theory to create one novel magical machine after another in this world. But there are limits to his abilities after all.

Something like a hydroelectric generator that was completely outside of his expertise was far less thorough than it was about mechanics.

If he wants to imitate it completely, with his current ability, it can be said that it is very difficult, if not completely impossible.

And his time now can be said to be very precious, and he simply does not have so much time to waste on this kind of research that he is not good at.

That's a paradoxical question.

He would love to copy all the important things in the industrial system on Earth and establish the same complete industrial system on the continent of Sainz, but he is not God, and he cannot do everything.

"Don't do what you can't do, just leave it to someone else to do. Hearing Xu Yi tell about his distress, Steele smiled lightly. "Xu Yi. You are a man, not a god. Then there are bound to be things that you can't do. If you're troubled by this, you're just asking for trouble. Besides, why are you in such a hurry to get everything that comes to mind done?"

Xu Yi could only shake his head, please sigh.

Of course, he couldn't have told Sù Steele about the fact that he had crossed over from Earth, so although he confided his distress to Steele, he only mentioned it vaguely, and Steele certainly couldn't understand the reason for his real distress.

"Well, instead of wasting time here worrying about it, we might as well hurry up and do something else. Seeing that Xu Yi's face was still not improving, Steele persuaded again. "You said you can't do a lot of things outside of magic machines, that's very simple, you just need to do the best things in magic machines. For example, if you think you can't solve the problem of the hydroelectric generator you mentioned, that's okay, isn't that wind magic generator already researched well enough? You just have to do the best you can with this thing, and I think you can achieve your goals. ”

"Don't you do what you can't do?" Xu Yi looked at Steele blankly, with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

Steele cupped his face and looked at him and nodded earnestly.

"Yes. Everyone has their own limitations, and even if Xu Yi's ability is very strong, even more than anyone I know, you still have limitations. My grandfather used to warn me about this, just to let me not waste too much time on magic that I was not good at when studying magic. ”

"The world of magic is endless, and it is impossible for a single magician to explore them all. So for a magician, the most important thing is to study the magic that he is good at to the extreme. If he can do this, then he can still become a powerful and excellent magician, and may even change the entire wizarding world. I think it's just as appropriate for you to use this as it does for you. ”

Hearing Steele's gentle persuasion, Xu Yi pondered.

After a while, his eyes gradually brightened.

Steele is right, a person has a limit to his abilities, and it is impossible to actually do all the things he wants to do.

Although he wanted to copy all the industrial systems on the earth to this continent, the reality was that there was no one on this continent who had the relevant knowledge and understanding of modern industry except for him.

The modern industrial system is an extremely complex and huge system, and even if he is extremely gifted in mechanical engineering and has an extremely deep theoretical and practical foundation, it does not mean that he also has such ability in other aspects.

As a mechanical engineer, he should know better than anyone what the term "efficiency" means.

Since it is extremely inefficient to conduct research in a field that he does not understand. Then it makes almost no sense for him to waste his precious time and energy on this.

Rather than that. It's better to fully recognize your own strengths. Further explore what you are good at.

Since the magic machine has already embodied its power, and even shows a lot of things that are even superior to those machines on the earth, then why didn't he continue to study in this field, and why waste his time on other things?

He doesn't understand hydroelectric generator sets, so the research progress is slow?

Let's not study it yet.

As long as he worked the Wind Magic Generator and the Fire Magic Generator that Evita proposed last time, he could still achieve the effect he needed, or even better.

Even for the idea of a hydroelectric generator, Akali proposed that it was completely possible to solve this problem by directly using the water magic array. The same can be used in place of the role of water flow.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi suddenly realized that he was not the only one in this world with all kinds of unique ideas, and others would not be inferior.

And after figuring this out, Xu Yi suddenly felt a bright light flash in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Haha...... Ha...... This...... Steele, you're right, you're so right!" Xu Yi seemed to be out of breath with laughter all of a sudden, which made Steele stunned. "If you can't do it, you don't do it, huh. How can I accomplish everything by myself? What I can't do, I'll leave it to the people of this continent to do. And me. I just need to do what I can and should do. ”

Although Steele didn't understand what Xu Yi was thinking when he said these words, seeing him so happy, he knew that he should have figured it out, so he was also happy.

"Yes, you just have to do what you love and what you're good at. "Steele Road.

"Hmm. Xu Yi nodded vigorously, and then said, "But other things can't be completely ignored." I can't do it, but I'm sure someone will. I just need to put these concepts up and someone will definitely do it for me in the future. Steele, I think I know what to do!"

Steele looked at Xu Yi in confusion.

What exactly is he going to do?

###

Three days later, the Bangta Daily published an article by Xu Yi in three consecutive editions, along with the second and third pages.

The title of this article is "The World Through My Eyes."

When they saw the title, many people were a little puzzled and a little curious at the same time.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce that always brings novelty to people, and everyone is very interested in President Xu Yi, so what does his so-called "world in my eyes" look like?

As soon as the article began, everyone who saw the newspaper was immediately drawn in.

"Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west? Why does lightning always sound with thunder? Why do apples always fall from branches to the ground? These three questions may seem silly to many, because almost everyone takes it for granted, and there is no reason for it. But for me, in fact, there are answers to these questions......"

In the following article, Xu Yi gave a brief introduction to the movement of celestial bodies, cloud convection, and gravitation.

Although his introduction is very vague because of various concerns, anyone who has read this article can immediately see that he is definitely not talking nonsense, but really reasonable.

So the article easily piqued people's curiosity.

yes, why?

There are many things that we may not want to ask why because we have long been accustomed to them, but even if they are things that we are used to, there is always some truth in them.

However, after arousing the reader's curiosity, Xu Yi changed his mind and began to describe the various effects brought about by the emergence of magical machinery.

After giving a general account of the convenience and impact of magic machines, Xu Yi began to describe the future development prospects of magic machines at the end of the article.

In his description, as long as the magical machines can grow, it will not be just Bonta City. It's not just the kingdom of Lampari, either. Even the entire continent of Sainz will be turned upside down. Everyone's life will be different.

Xu Yi used succinct language, apparently well-thought-out, to paint a moving picture of the popularization of magical machines, and then announced two pieces of news that surprised everyone.

The first piece of news is that he plans to publish a series of books related to the basic theory of magical machines in the next time, so that all people who are interested in magical machines can know why these magical machines are made and why they have various magical functions.

If the first message already amazes everyone, then when people see the second message, they are even more amazed.

Second message. It turned out that Xu Ye was ready to open an academy in his own name!

What's even more surprising is that this academy is neither a magic academy nor a skills academy that teaches various vocational skills, but a pure basic knowledge academy that only allows students to learn some of the most basic knowledge that Xu Yi said and deepen their understanding of the world.

This knowledge includes the whys he mentioned at the beginning of the article.

After seeing this article published in the "Bonta Daily", not only other people couldn't understand what Xu Yi wanted to do, but even the people around Xu Yi couldn't understand it.

Steele immediately took the newspaper and found Xu Yi.

"I can understand your first decision, after all, you have always told me that you want to involve the people of Sainz in the research and manufacture of magical machines. It can promote the development of the magic machinery industry as much as possible. Although this may make the new flying chamber have a lot of competitors, you don't care anyway. ”

Steele frowned. I read the "Bonta Daily" in my hand again, and my eyebrows were full of confusion and doubt.

"But you have the second decision...... It's weird, isn't it? Why would you want to start such an academy? Money is not a problem for you, but what about time? Do you have so much time to teach children?"

Xu Yi smiled, and did not answer Steele's question, but threw the plan for the creation of the junior department of Xinfei Academy that he had written overnight last night to Steele.

"Take a look, after reading this, you should understand. ”

Steele looked at it for a moment, puzzled, the confused expression on his face fading.

After reading this plan, which contained all of Xu Yi's ideas for this college, Steele finally understood what Xu Yi meant.

But after thinking about it for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Although I understand what you want to do, I still don't understand, why are you doing this?

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Although it doesn't seem to be helpful to promote magic machinery, it doesn't have much connection." But the so-called industry is not just a model of magic industry. I wanted to start such an academy because I wanted to plant a seed on the continent of Sainz. As for when it will take root and eventually bear fruit, it is not something I can think about now. ”

Steele looked at Xu Yi for a moment, shook his head and sighed softly, "Sometimes I really don't understand what you're thinking. But forget it, anyway, as long as it's something you do, I'll definitely support it, who made me your fiancée. ”

Speaking of the back, Steele smiled mischievously at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi couldn't help it, stretched out his arms to hug Steele, kissed her, and looked at Steele's happy smile, and his heart was also full of happiness.

If it weren't for Steele's explanation of him, he would probably still be struggling, and he would not have been as thoroughly aware of the path he should take as he is now.

These two decisions may seem very incomprehensible to many people, but Xu Yi does not need them to understand.

He only knew that after making these two decisions, he instantly felt a lot more relaxed, and the future plan in his mind became clearer.

Although even Steele didn't quite understand the academy he wanted to open, Xu Yi was sure that in the future Sainz Continent, such academies would inevitably bloom everywhere, even several times more than the current magic academy.

Of course, this is not something that Xu Yi, who has figured it out now, will consider.

This academy, in the final analysis, is just a comfort to himself after he made a decision. (To be continued......)
