Several skill books have drawn a dot on Xia Qi's civilization, and he is satisfied that he is also a rich man, but now he finds out that he is still poor.

But it's no wonder that these bigwigs have developed for centuries in their respective worlds, and how rich they are, I'm afraid it's not something Xia Qi can imagine.

As for Yang Guang, who is at the highest rank, Xia Qi estimates that the civilization points here are all counted in hundreds of billions and trillions.

After buying the skill book, Xia Qi opened his backpack and confirmed it, which contained five skill books: "Disease Diagnosis", "Trauma Management", "Pharmaceutical", "Emergency Treatment" and "Pathological Research".

Just now he also found a skill book called "Herbal Identification", which can naturally provide a lot of help for other players, but not necessarily for Xia Qi.

Wu Yi has the talent of "hundred herbs", he only needs to taste one bite to know what effect this grass has, plus his other talent "a hundred poisons are not invasive", when matched, it highlights a complement each other.

Currently, Wu Yi is the head of the medical department and is responsible for imparting knowledge on herbal medicine to members.

Although there are still two or three big cats and small cats in the medical department for the time being, the loyalty is just now, and the upper limit of intelligence has reached three hearts.

Xia Qi assigned "Pathological Research" to Wu Yi, and the other four skill books were assigned to each of the other members according to their talents.

It is worth mentioning that Wu is not in the medical department.

Wu is already old, since the beginning of winter, his spirit has become very poor, not long ago he presided over a sacrifice, the spirit has become very poor, and now he is still cultivating.

There are people engaged in medical research, people who are responsible for diagnosing diseases, and there are also people who are responsible for herbal medicine, trauma treatment, and medicine.

After leaving the medical department, Xia Qi first went to Tao's side.

In the southwest corner of Daxia City, Tao is directing the workers to work.

With the completion of Great Xia City, various departments have new plans, and they can no longer be as chaotic as before.

This will be the foundation for industrial production, and not only the pottery department, but also the forging and casting departments are located next to the pottery department.

Unlike the embarrassing white sheep, pottery has run through the entire history of mankind since its birth, after all, such as porcelain and lacquerware, these are the enjoyment of a few people, and pottery is the product of most people.

Now the pottery has begun to try to draw patterns on the pottery, which is good.

Tao was not dissatisfied with moving away from the original pottery site, because the kiln mouth here had already been built in advance, and there was no need to wait for these to be built. In addition, this area is spacious and there are more kiln openings than before.

On top of that, this place is also closer to the place where the pottery collected the clay.

When Xia Qi found Tao, this old guy was sitting in a corner, basking in the sun while commanding, looking at the expression, he had the smell of the black-hearted shopkeeper.

Since the expansion of the pottery department and the recruitment of hundreds of workers, this guy has fewer and fewer opportunities to make a move, and every time he sells the pottery, it is also close to Xia Qi, Xiong, and White Wolf.

Privilege is a thing, not just for people, but for all social animals.

For this, Xia Qi did not stop it, but he did not encourage it, but his behavior of not expressing his position was itself a kind of acquiescence.

Again, desire itself is a driving force for human progress.

When you see a neighbor who was once as poor as yourself suddenly using something that you can't afford to use in your life, it is false to say that you are not jealous.

"Patriarch!"

Seeing Xia Qi coming, Tao seemed to have been bitten by a bug on his buttocks, and he stood up from the ground with a slick of his hand.

"Hmm. There is something that came to you this time."

Xia Qi nodded, and then told Tao all the materials required for the masonry, firing steps, and attention.

It is worth mentioning that the drawings for the production of masonry and cement are of the silver level.

"Don't worry, patriarch, this matter will be left to me." Hearing Xia Qi's instructions, Tao slapped his chest with a bang.

It's not pottery, it's so easy to make, and the only material needed is clay. The clay is made to the same size with a mold, then removed and dried, and finally put into a kiln for firing.

As for cement, it requires slightly more materials, and it also needs iron slag that the Xia tribe does not currently have, so Xia Qi did not hand it over to Tao.

After Xia Qi left Tao, he then went to Xia Fox's side.

The current ordnance part has three divisions, which are casting, forging, and research.

As for the former department boss grinding department, it has been separated and is now responsible for polishing all kinds of jade.

Unlike the two departments of casting and forging, the research department is located next to Xia Qi's future residence.

In the research department, Xia Fox is commanding several people to wrestle with each other, and the tool they wrestle with is a bow. They are testing the toughness and strength of the bow.

Everyone's attention was on this bow, and they didn't even notice Xia Qi's arrival.

Xia Qi leaned over to take a look and found that the bow they tested was bronze in appearance.

You know, bronze is a very brittle material, so it didn't take long for the outer bronze to crack and fall off, revealing the wooden bow on the outside, and this test ended in failure.

At present, there are no new research projects in the research department, so Xia Fox, who seems bored, has set his eyes on the weapons and equipment in the tribe.

Not only bows and arrows, but also armor, shields, spears, knives, swords, and so on, are all within their scope of study.

"Failed again."

This failure did not discourage everyone present, and this is how the research was supposed to summarize from the failures again and again, and find a way to succeed.

"Patriarch, why are you here?"

After the test, everyone noticed Xia Qi.

Xia Qi smiled and asked, "Are you studying bows and arrows?" ”

Xia Fox nodded and replied, "Yes." I'd like to see if I can improve the bows, but so far, they've failed. Iron birch is too hard, ordinary people can't open a few bows and their arms will become sore, and bronze is too brittle. ”

Xia Qi smiled: "Isn't it a coincidence?" I happen to have a new weapon here, similar to the bow and arrow, which is also long-ranged. Weapons. ”

"Really? Where is it, why didn't I see it? As soon as Xia Fox said that Xia Qi had a new weapon in his hand, he immediately became excited.

"Wait, this is for you."

[Do you confirm to receive the design drawings of the gold-level eight-bull crossbow?] Once claimed, you will not be able to trade! 】

"Yes!"

Without hesitation, Xia Qi directly took out the production drawings of the Eight Bull Crossbow.

Suddenly, a thick stack of drawings appeared in Xia Qi's hands. This was a bit of a surprise to him, who originally thought that these production drawings were only two or three pages long.

Casually flipped through a few photos, the design drawings given by the system, theoretically speaking, it is impossible to have any problems, and the details are outrageous, any small parts are marked, and even what materials are used to make each part, if there is no such material, it can be replaced with those materials are clearly written.

Looking at the design drawing in his hand, Xia Qi realized how the 40% success rate and 60% production efficiency came about!

As a die-hard lover of strategy and war games, can Xia Qi not know the advantages of the latter two effects?

For example, in the same amount of time, other players can build one Eight Bull Crossbow, and Xia Qi can build two. With the same material, other players can build three, and Xia Qi can build four.

The advantages don't seem to be much, but in war, such advantages will snowball!

Looking at the drawings in Xia Qi's eyes, Xia Fox's eyes began to shine like light bulbs.

Seeing this, Xia Qi could only hand over the production drawings to her with tears and laughter, and said:

"This thing is called the Eight Bull Crossbow, and it is a siege machine, and it is extremely powerful."

When Xia Qi spoke, Xia Fox had already taken over the stack of design drawings, flipping through the pages one after another, and her keen intuition about ordnance and equipment made her clearly feel the power and complexity of this thing just by looking at the patterns on the drawings. Just looking at it, the expression on her face suddenly became bitter.

"Patriarch, what do you mean by that bunch of strange symbols next to this pattern?"

"It's called text."

Xia Qi forgot that the entire tribe was illiterate except for himself, this is not good, if he is illiterate, how can such a complex eight-bull crossbow be made?

On the design drawing of this eight-bull crossbow, in addition to the pattern, there are also a large number of words and numbers. If you can't understand this information, the difficulty of making it will have to increase by at least dozens of times.

"That's not a strange symbol, it's a word."

"Words?" When Xia Fox heard this, his face was full of confusion.

Seeing this, Xia Qi said: "It just so happens that your research department has been relatively idle recently, starting from today, all the members of the research department will teach you literacy after noon every day." ”

Although Xia Qi can directly tell these people what the words and numbers on the drawings mean, this is troublesome after all, and he can't always interpret the design drawings every time he has a design drawing in the future, right? The learning of words should not be delayed, and the sooner they can learn it, the sooner he can save his worries.

Teaching the written word is the most important thing, not only in the research department, but also in the whole civilization in the future.
