Chapter 208 58.
Dacus, the industrial figure, is constantly patrolling. Ren is standing beside him, holding a book in his hand to keep records. The servants are standing beside him without blocking his sight. All around, he stared at everything that might be a threat.
The sorceresses spread out. They all knew what Darkus was here for, and they also knew what they came to Hagrid Grave to do. They either stared at the workers' operations, or looked for help in the workshop. The sorceresses inside were communicating with each other.
After watching it for a long time, Darkus felt that he was no longer interested. There was really nothing to see here. There is no such industrial and mechanized beauty, only primitive and simple accumulation of manpower. He turned his attention to the sorceresses. Of course, he was not looking at their charming figures, but observing their every move.
"Why don't I have a system and no benefits for time travel newbies? Just create one, it's such a waste!" Darkus couldn't help complaining, he knew that industrialization is impossible, industrialization is evolution What came out was not planned, nor was it something he thought about in a flash.
But Darkus still has to do it, no matter how difficult it is, he must bite the bullet! You must know that the demand for steel on Druchi's side is huge. From the triggers of crossbows, the armor of soldiers, cold lizards, giant beasts to the external steel cladding of predator ships, steel is needed, and there is also Ruth in the south. As for fellow Chia, from skinks to monitor lizards, from cold lizards to tyrannosaurus, they all need to wear armor, and the thicker the armor, the better. After all, where are the number of lizardmen, and when the time comes, those skink lizards will also need to wear armor. The whole breastplate and helmet!
Just like the traditional mathematical problem of water inlet and outlet of a water tank, what Darkus has to do is to block the water outlet as much as possible. Although it is impossible to block all the water, it can still be blocked as much as possible. Moreover, the mining of Osinite Stone is just like this mathematical problem. It is nothing more than the number of skink lizards mined and processed to the armor armor rate and loss of the lizardmen.
Forget gold, that thing is idealistic at best, similar to the runes inscribed by Druchi on the black steel. Although the mechanism of Chakua's large shield has not been studied clearly, the outermost layer of the shield is made of Osinite stone, not all gold. To put it bluntly, it still depends on the thick skin and thick flesh of lizards and giant beasts, combined with the bonus of idealism.
Drucki and Darkus can't accomplish anything. He was never an engineering major before. Besides, there are three major majors in engineering from mineral processing to finished products, and the three majors are divided into subdivisions. He doesn't have an intellectual brain either, and having an intelligent brain is useless. This requires a complete social system, which Drukhi society does not have, and even the medieval world does not have. In his opinion, the things of the Chaos Dwarves can be used as a reference, but they are also evil. You must know that many of the instruments of the Chaos Dwarves are Powered by demonic souls.
Darkos could only turn his attention to the sorceresses. As the saying goes, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. He only needs to teach them several methods of scientific research, such as comparison method, control variable method, equivalent substitution method, experimental reasoning method, conversion method, model method, etc. Let them study the rest by themselves, Qingbao Tianzun will bless them, no, Hecate will bless them.
After drawing the cake, these sorceresses did indeed give Dacus some satisfactory answers. There were a lot of crooked things, strange tricks and idealistic things, but many of them were of no use or could not be thought of at the moment. how to use.
"What kind of industrial stereotype?" Darkus couldn't help but smacked his lips after thinking for a while.
If we rely on sorceresses, a new problem arises. Druchi society has no grassroots bureaucrats at all, let alone any selection mechanism. There are even fewer sorceresses. Just like going to a university in a beautiful country, you need a large amount of Sovereign for daily expenses. After all, a group of little sisters are together.
Few families at the bottom of Drukhi society can afford to live there, unless they save some money during plundering, plus sorceresses work hard and study hard, and the training direction of sorceresses is high-end, long-term, What matters is the difficulty of graduation, the high mortality rate, and the high risks. What's even more noisy is that there is a vacuum period, just like a newly graduated college student, grandma doesn't care, uncle doesn't love, and the internship period is extremely long.
To put it bluntly, Darkus still has to reform the training system for sorceresses in Druchi society and set up something similar to a girls' school. While learning the magic system, he also has to appropriately divert training resources in the direction of the bureaucracy. Fortunately, he doesn't need to Go to Grond to find Morathi. Krakarond's Tower of Destruction and Nagarond can meet his needs. Later, he will complete the other eight winds. There is still a nanny like the life system.
In Druchi society, only the female sorcerers are more resistant to corrosion and more profitable. After all, the gap is too big, and even the big Darkos dare not even think about it. If the raiding ships flying in the sky can be put into service, each one must be equipped with a sorceress, and the plundering ships at sea also need to be equipped with sorceresses, especially since the gap in the route between Lustria and Naggaroth is even greater. During the war, It also serves as various batteries and so on.
Thinking of this, Darkus suddenly thought of the sorceress who was shot to death by him with a bow and arrow when he was fighting for the Heart Eater family's black ark. That sorceress was the best portrayal of Druchi's lower-class family. He completed the twelve brutal trials and barely made it to graduation. He survived the battle between the internship ship and the Asul dragon ship, but ended up getting involved in a political struggle and died inexplicably.
Pension? Sorry, there is no such word in Drukhi society. The result was that the family that trained the sorceress was devastated, a large number of Sovereigns were thrown in, and most importantly, no one was alive. Blood feud? If it doesn't exist, you can only consider yourself unlucky. The Drukhi society is so overbearing and unreasonable.
"What's the name of that novel?" Darkus suddenly remembered that he had read a novel before, in which a lord used witches to develop technology, but he suddenly couldn't remember what it was called.
Darkus doesn't need the sorceresses trained under these new systems to be very powerful, as long as the number is enough. This is a purely money-losing business. Fortunately, he doesn't seem to be short of money. When the time comes, he will clear the underground sea channel under Spicazuma and fill it with the steel the lizardmen need when leaving Naggaroth. When he comes back, It's time to fill it with gold and gems that Druch needs.
Aren’t these deals and routes already laid out? Perfect! Gold ship! This is better than labor dispatch triangular trade or the like. Another route goes back and forth from various ports in Nagaros to Chapeiuto, transporting the supplies needed by Druch, and another route is opened on the Sea of Terror to transport luxury goods such as spices.
The pirates stopped plundering and started to switch to transportation! The world has changed! At that time, we will get some Asur ships and dump them in the opposite direction to the Old World and Cathay.
"Go back for dinner and have a meeting in the afternoon."
——Dakuus
borrowed the conference room of Night Governor Castle. The conference room was full of Druchis. At this time, there was no longer any talk of sword distance, and there were still some The little dignitary's retinue didn't even have a place to sit, so he could only stand there.
"That's basically it!" Darkus knocked on the blackboard. He wrote down various terms needed for industrial steelmaking on the blackboard, and drew a map, and then assigned tasks to the sorceresses. I'm doing industrial stereotypes. Druchi, who was present, remained quiet, watching Darkus write and draw, and became even quieter after finishing the painting, because they could not understand what Darkus drew at all.
Not to mention these Druchi, even Darkus himself didn't know what he had drawn. He knocked on the blackboard and organized his speech for a long time, but he didn't know what to say. The scene became a little anxious for a while.
"Let's make a converter first." Darkus said as his head hurt, he put his hand on his forehead and rubbed his temples. Then he raised a glass bottle in front of the table as a signal. He fixed his two hands on both sides of the middle of the bottle and began to spin the rare liquid in the bottle. The liquid kept tumbling under his rotation, turning for a while. After the meeting, he poured the liquid in the bottle through the pre-opened small opening, revealing the iron block wrapped in the liquid. Of course, this iron block was also put in beforehand.
Darkus put the bottle back on the table, then took out another empty blackboard and continued drawing. He vaguely remembered the shape of the converter. What was more important than the shape was the air blowing port. The key to the converter was oxygen. Without oxygen, the converter would be just like a crucible. The products produced would have a lot of impurities.
As for where the blowing port is, and what top blowing, bottom blowing, and top-bottom composite Dacus are, I don’t know at all, let alone how much oxygen to blow and how long to turn it, and whether the industrial oxygen production process will produce nitrogen. Not to mention stuff like that, he can't even memorize the periodic table of elements. He doesn't even understand the sintered pellets of iron ore. He only understands the nouns. To put it bluntly, he seems to understand everything, but in fact he understands nothing. But he seems to know that the equipment that makes iron ore into pellets requires power. ? Water conservancy? Steam engine? Forget it, let’s put it aside first, maybe the iron ore in Hagrid Grave is of good quality?
"Get a small one first and experiment with it." Darkus looked at the sorceresses and said lightly.
Drusala then raised his hand, indicating that his team was willing to take on the next project.
"This furnace needs to inject high-purity gas to separate the impurities in the iron ore and form high-purity steel." Darkus did not talk about oxygen, and he was not a teacher. He didn't know how to explain this thing, and he Enough has been said, so much that these Druchi began to suspect that he was the Chosen One of Tzeentch!
Colonia hesitated and raised her non-cursed hand.
Next, Darkus drew another diagram of a blast furnace, but it was limited to the external diagram. He knew nothing about the internal structure. As for the open-hearth furnace, he only knew a concept, but he knew that the open-hearth furnace did not seem to use oxygen, and it only needed a blower, and It can also burn low-quality coal, but that's not important!
The important thing is that Darkus sends out all the jobs one after another. The assignment of jobs is what is important! First list the blast furnace, converter and flat furnace, and then conduct experiments, upgrades and comparisons to see which one is suitable. He also sent down the work of burning refractory bricks and coking the solid soil and clay. As for the wind turbine brought from Nagarund, he put it aside for the time being. Anyway, it was just a reason. When he was about to return to Nagarund Take it back, there are plains over there and there is wind. There is no wind at all in this damn place like Hagrid Grave. He can't send a heavenly mage to blow the wind there every day.
Anyway, Darkus doesn't need to come up with the specific things. He estimates that 80% of the things the sorceresses come up with are different from the ones he has seen before. They will definitely become medieval and Drukic. When the time comes, there will be an inscription on the stove. Hecate's runes and avatar didn't seem strange to him. But it doesn't matter. He only needs a large amount of steel with reliable performance. Steel is enough, and the rest doesn't matter.
As for the corrosion, accidents and explosions that occurred during the period, they were inevitable. These were all within what Darkus could bear. He also formulated something similar to a safety code, hoping to save the core sorceresses from some harm. As for the rest, he couldn't control it, so he could only pray for blessings from the sorceresses for some help.
Get the steel out first. As for the steam engines and machine tools, we’ll talk about it later. It’s useless to fix these things without steel. Darkus was not prepared to build high-low conveyor belts and railways. He did not want to build a railway between Hagrid Grave and Naggarond. At most, some railcars can be laid between Hagrid Grave's Dark Rock and various factory areas. Anyway, there is no shortage of manpower and labor dispatch for the time being.
Yes, factory area! There are many, many factory areas. To put it bluntly, the factory area is a large iron smelting workshop. At most, it is pressed into steel plates and then nothing more. Although he wants to set up an integrated large-scale factory that produces iron ore and armor, but this Not fundamentally realistic. And this is a medieval warhammer. Explosions, fires and safety accidents should occur frequently. He knows that eggs cannot be put in one basket, unless the entire Hagrid Grave is destroyed and the Druchis all go crazy overnight. Or all the big workshops were blown up at once, then he really had nothing to say, he could only shout that it was awesome! Praise Him!
In the eyes of Darkus, Hagrid Grave's positioning is to produce steel. He uses standardized processes to produce and process components using the power provided by steam engines. Of course, Hagrid Grave's powerful people will definitely intercept them. This is Inevitably, Malekith repeatedly issued orders to ban Druchi sorcerers, and the powerful also changed their laws, not to mention steel. He also admired these powerful people because they relied on manpower and simple machinery to move such hard steel.
Darkus suddenly had a new idea! If everything goes well, we can simply process it on the Black Ark Nagor, let the Nagor cruise between Hagrid Grave and Naggarond, and finally assemble and preserve it in Nagarund. The Nagol stayed in the Sea of Resentment to act as a protective barrier, conducting daily patrols, training and preparing admirals, trainee sorceresses, and sailors, and then processing steel, all together! This not only facilitates transportation, but also eliminates the need for time-consuming and laborious railway repairs. Moreover, the Nagor does not risk rebellion or causing damage. After all, there are forces from all sides and can check and balance each other. Moreover, the processing places are not placed together, and the Nagor is not in the same place. The Gore is huge.
When the time comes, let the field armies and newly formed armies from various cities go to Nagarund for training. There is an endless frozen plain outside Nagarund. Go and train! During training, some cotton Kaitan, cigarettes, wine, meat, salt, sugar and canned goods were given as rewards to the soldiers.
There are many advantages to doing this. It can weaken the power of the powerful in various cities and centralize power. It is convenient to promote items such as tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea, so that the fear lords who lead the army have to buy them even if they don't want to buy them. After the soldiers taste the sweetness, it is easy to change from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. Others have it but you don't, so that's not a problem. Yes, although Druchi has military discipline, he still has many unpredictable manipulation methods. Unified training, unified drills, and unified distribution of equipment. After the training, Nagarond can also intercept some outstanding soldiers to form an elite unit.
"I really admire myself so much!" Darkus couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, the housekeeper knocked on the door of the conference room and conveyed the news from the front line.
Darkus knew that Hagrid Grave would be particularly lively tonight!
I have no choice today, I have to pack my things
