Chapter Seventy-One: Various Manufacturing Ideas (1)

"Is it just a matter of building?" Mo Xuan asked. In Mo Xuan's guess, it shouldn't be just such a reason to stump Lu Sien, there should be other aspects: "Then why is the weapon production of the Dwarf Kingdom so large?"

Lu Sien rolled his eyes: "Can Flame City be compared to the Dwarven Kingdom? Let's not talk about how many blacksmiths there are in the Dwarf Kingdom, let's just talk about your conditions here! In the Dwarf Kingdom, we use magma and special fuel produced by the Dwarf Kingdom to dissolve ores, and we can only make a little bit of metal here by constantly hammering like a fool every day." Mo Xuan was heavily despised by Lu Sien.

"Ugh. "Although I know that there is a gap between Flame City and the Dwarven Kingdom, but listening to Lu Sien say this, it is like heaven and earth, and the gap is too big.

However, after thinking about it for a long time, Mo Xuan understood that there was actually no gap between Flame City and the Dwarf Kingdom in terms of manufacturing technology, on the contrary, because the dwarves in Flame City were all people from the tribes that were annexed when the Dwarf Kingdom was developed, and most of them were high-ranking and powerful people in these tribes, some special metal formulas and building methods, and even the current Dwarf Kingdom had been lost.

The difference is in the production of metal ingots, and now Flame City can only work on two aspects if it wants to solve the problem of not being able to have weapons for a long time, one is to solve the production of metal, and the other is to free these highly skilled craftsmen from tedious chores.

Because some things do not require these masters to work, like making arrows, which is extremely troublesome, but what ordinary apprentices can't do is too manpower.

Thinking about Mo Xuan, he thought that after the modern era on the earth, metal smelting exploded, and metal production increased almost every year. The reason why there was no such growth in ancient times was that in ancient times there was no solution to how to maintain the temperature in the blast furnace where the ore was melted.

But if you want to copy the steel mills on the earth on the endless continent, Mo Xuan can only say one thing, that is, it is a dream in vain, not to mention the difficulty of construction, and some items on the earth are not available here, so it is impossible to copy them.

However, some ideas can still be used for reference, such as: the hot blast furnace in the steel plant is actually to maintain the temperature of the air blown into the blast furnace, as well as the oxygen furnace, etc., their functions are to improve the temperature in the blast furnace.

It is true that there are no such devices on the Endless Continent, and it is very troublesome to make them yourself, but Mo Xuan thought about why not try to use magic to solve it?

For example, first build a blast furnace for smelting ore, and then carve various magic arrays to increase the temperature on the inner wall of the blast furnace, so that as long as the magic array is turned on and off, the problem of how to control the temperature in the furnace can be solved, and because it does not burn coal and other items, the pollution caused by smelting is also greatly reduced.

As soon as Mo Xuan said his thoughts, Lu Sien thought for a moment and gave an answer, which was feasible.

After getting a positive answer, Mo Xuan almost jumped, it was too exciting, so that the two problems would end to one, and maybe Flame City could compete with the Dwarven Kingdom for the arms market after arriving.

"However, Mo Xuan, how are you going to provide energy for this blast furnace? If you use magic crystals, the cost is too high, and it is completely a loss-making business. Lu Sien said worriedly.

What Lu Sien said is very reasonable, if you lose money, then it is better to buy weapons from the dwarf kingdom directly.

However, Mo Xuan was not worried at all, he pointed to the volcano in the distance: "What we have is energy!

Suddenly, Lu Sien's old face turned red, but there were still idle generators in the volcano, these generators completely relied on the volcano to generate electricity, and the cost of power generation was almost negligible, and he actually forgot about such a major matter, it really shouldn't be.

But after a while, Lu Sien became excited again: "In other words, the generator can be operated." "It's no wonder that Lu Sien is so excited, the generator is unique in the world, this kind of equipment that can produce energy is different from the magic array that gathers energy between heaven and earth used by others. The most important thing is that he made this device.

I don't know if anyone has ever tried it, as long as the rice made by themselves is not the kind of best that puts salt and sugar, basically they will not feel that their rice is unpalatable. Lu Sien is in this mood now, his own children are so good, he can't say it, and he can't even move when he stays at home, this feeling is really tormenting, now I hear Mo Xuan say that the generator can be used, can you not be excited now?

Now that one problem has been solved, what should the other do, Mo Xuan also has a case in his heart.

In addition to all kinds of advanced management, the rest is the emergence of lathes, including the early Zhenni machine that led the industrial revolution, which is also a kind of lathe.

And what Mo Xuan has to do is to design a lathe, the most basic kind of stamping lathe, because Mo Xuan only needs this kind of lathe to process armor and arrows for himself. In Moxuan's plan, such a lathe will be driven by an electric motor.

If it was the previous Flame City, Mo Xuan was not sure that he could get the motor out, but now that a large number of alchemists have joined, Mo Xuan feels that this is nothing, because some alchemists can even make steel puppets, and with Mo Xuan's guidance, it is indeed very simple to make a simple motor.

After Mo Xuan shared his thoughts with his subordinates, the alchemists stated that they had a strong interest in this electric motor and thought they could make it.

The dwarven blacksmiths such as Lu Sien were strongly skeptical, because they really couldn't think of what a machine that could squeeze steel like dough would look like, they had been working with steel for many years, they understood how hard steel was, and they thought it was Mo Xuan and they were joking.

However, at Mo Xuan's insistence, they still made this kind of machine according to what Mo Xuan said, and they really wanted to see if this kind of machine called a lathe was really as magical as Mo Xuan said.

Mo Xuan discussed with Lu Sien along the way, while walking towards the place where Ge Qi lived, the guards accompanying him on the road firmly protected the two, and the people around the street saw Mo Xuan and cast reverent glances at his figure, bent down and bowed and then stepped aside, they didn't want to disturb the respected lord.
