Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 158 I Want Gold Carat

If you want to improve the overall strength of your forces, military technology is the most obvious. At the same time, you can open up the front-end technologies related to military technology such as smelting and mining, which can greatly enhance the strength of the Liao army.But it is a pity that due to the system's humanitarian protection mechanism, Chu Yun has no way to open up new military technologies, only the front-end technologies and production technologies that will not cause great harm.

But Chu Yun thought about it, and it seemed that his power didn't have any urgently needed technology.With the Anshan Iron Mine, Chu Yun wants to improve the mining technology, but it is difficult to improve due to the lack of high-explosive explosives, large-scale transportation equipment, and mechanical rock drills.As for the point of high explosives, it is estimated that the system will use the humanitarian protection mechanism to limit itself.

In addition to mining technology, Chu Yun also wants to acquire steel-making technology, because whether it is now or in the future, Chu Yun needs a lot of steel.To further improve your steelmaking technology, you can start the converter steelmaking method and the flat furnace steelmaking method.However, the new steelmaking technology is too expensive, requiring more than [-] civilization points!
Chu Yun, who originally thought that he could do whatever he wanted with 30000 civilization points, was as dejected as a defeated rooster.It's too ruthless. Every major technology requires a large number of civilization points. Isn't this tempting people?
The development of large-scale industrial civilization is not enough, and the development of high explosives and military technology is restricted by humanitarian protection. Chu Yun turned his attention to agricultural technology.Speaking of which, in the Little Ice Age and the Ming Dynasty, which suffered from perennial drought, many areas were in food crisis, and more than one million people died of starvation.If Chu Yun hadn't used a large amount of silver to purchase grain from other regions and carried out preliminary agricultural reforms, I'm afraid they would not be optimistic in southern and eastern Liaoning.Who will worry about food?

When it comes to food, what Chu Yun from later generations thinks of is chemical fertilizers.If there is a combination of farming systems such as chemical fertilizers and rotation farming, the grain output will be increased by several percent, and it will be able to feed more people!

"Phosphate fertilizer, potash fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer..." Chu Yun was excited when he saw the dazzling array of fertilizer technologies.This industrial revolution system is really dazzling and has everything you need.

The production technology of these fertilizers does not just need to be turned on to produce fertilizers on a large scale. The production technology of fertilizers is divided into many stages.

Taking nitrogen fertilizer as an example, the nitrogen fertilizer technology in 1850 required 10000 civilization points, but the nitrogen fertilizer technology at this time could not produce nitrogen fertilizer on a large scale, resulting in the failure of nitrogen fertilizer to be put into production and use.Large-scale nitrogen fertilizer production technology did not exist until the 20th century.

Chu Yun knew that phosphorus fertilizer, potassium fertilizer and nitrogen fertilizer were probably the three most in-demand fertilizers.Nitrogen fertilizers are difficult to produce on a large scale and require the use of technologies from the early 20th century. It is not cost-effective to simply develop nitrogen fertilizer technologies from the 19th century.Therefore, Chu Yun intends to develop the technology of phosphate and potash fertilizers in the 19th century first.

"I want to start phosphate and nitrogen fertilizer technologies." Chu Yun said to the industrial revolution system.

This time the system is very refreshing.

"Host, you have chosen the 19th century potash fertilizer production technology. The system has found that this technology has pre-technology, and the pre-technology is organic chemistry technology from the 19th century, etc... Checking whether the pre-process technology has been completed..."

"The system will summon talents from different time and space to help you realize the potash fertilizer production technology... Connecting... The link is successful... Prussian chemist Liebig and Liebig's laboratory will realize the potash fertilizer production technology for you..."

"The system will summon talents from different time and space to help you realize the phosphate fertilizer production technology... Connecting... The link is successful... The British squire Laws and the scientist Gilbert's Rosenster Laboratory will realize the phosphate fertilizer production technology for you..."

"Because the host is committed to improving agricultural technology and improving the quality of life of the indigenous people, the system rewards the Chinese translations of Liebig's works such as "Organic Matter Analysis", "Biochemistry", "Chemical Communication", "Chemical Research", "Fundamentals of Agricultural Chemistry", And two hundred catties each of potash fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer."

???

Can you still get system rewards for farming by yourself?Sending books and fertilizer?It seems that the bias of this system is obvious...

In the blink of Chu Yun's eyes, dozens of scientists appeared in his room, making the room look crowded.

"It's you?"

"You guys are here too?"

The scientists in Liebig's and Rothenst's laboratories stared wide-eyed, and there seemed to be some hostility.

"Liebig, you once said that we don't need animals and plants as fertilizer at all. But we have proved through experiments that by crushing animal bones into bone meal and treating them with sulfuric acid, potassium superphosphate can be made, which shows that the fertilizer produced by decaying animals and plants It is an important source of nitrogen, potassium and other elements in the soil." Gilbert, a scientist in the Rothenst laboratory, pointed to the people in Liebig's laboratory.

"Even so, the efficiency of using rotting animals and plants as fertilizer is not high." Liebig shook his head, insisting on his opinion.

"Ahem, everyone, I summoned you to come to hope that you can produce nitrogen fertilizer for our Daming, and I hope that you can work together in the future regardless of past suspicions." Chu Yun couldn't help laughing.

This is the first time that two laboratories from two different countries and competitors have been summoned.Moreover, Chu Yun discovered that at this time, Prussia began to appear frequently in the industrial revolution system!Whether it is the Dreiser rifle, the Krupp small steel gun, or the current scientist Liebig, they are all Prussian technology and talents.

"Hmph." The people in the two laboratories still looked at each other disliked.This is not only a grievance between them personally, but also some grievances between their time and space countries.

Chu Yun looked at the group of baby lumps with a smile.It is not bad for two laboratories to have competition. One can be engaged in phosphorus fertilizers and the other in nitrogen fertilizers.

"Our Academy of Sciences of the Liao Army attaches great importance to agriculture, and there is also a special agricultural bureau. In the future, you can do chemical fertilizer research in the Academy of Sciences, and then ask the Agricultural Bureau to set up two fertilizer factories to provide you with the convenience of producing fertilizers. Our preliminary It is to produce enough fertilizer after the spring of next year." Chu Yun said.

"I don't know how much fertilizer you want to produce?" Two people from the laboratory asked Chu Yun.

"Um, I'm not very clear about the specifics. It's about 10 people. How much fertilizer do you estimate will be produced?" Chu Yun replied.

"Is this too much..." The people in the two laboratories felt a little stressed when they heard what Chu Yun said.

"You don't need to worry, I will try my best to arrange enough manpower and raw materials for you." Chu Yun said indifferently, "I have already thought about it. The chemical fertilizer produced by our Liaodong is called Jinkela. It will not only cover the entire Ming Dynasty, And sell it all over the world!"
