Beautiful Another World Red Tide

"Mr. Sun Boyang, I'm leaving first, and I'll leave Shanni's affairs to you."

Seeing nothing serious, Mi Gaoqi walked over to say goodbye to Sun Boyang. Sun Boyang nodded and said that he would take good care of him, so Mi Gaoqi went to prepare the army with peace of mind. On this kind of thing.

"Why did he leave!? He has to apologize to us!" The bearded man pointed at Migaucci's back and said.

"I said Owen, can you save the province? What is he? It's the military master! What are you? You don't even have the legal status of the kingdom now. If I hadn't brought you here, you would still be hunting to make ends meet. " Stephen said sarcastically.

"Am I rare? Let's go now."

"dad?!"

Just as Owen was about to leave, Soge and Daisy finally ran over panting. He knew that his father was very irritable and that something would happen. Sure enough, he heard his father's loud voice before he even got to the auditorium.

Several people looked at Daisia ​​and Sog at the door. Their faces were still stained with some dust, and they looked not very clean, but they were obviously in good spirits. They could be described as radiant. They were both dressed plainly. Fitting trousers and long sleeves suitable for work, and a gray towel hanging around the neck. At first glance, this towel is an old soldier who has also fought hard with them.

"Mom!? Sister?!"

Seeing Olivia and the cute little sister beside her, Daisia ​​couldn't help crying tears of joy. She felt embarrassed again in an instant, and quickly picked up a towel to wipe her face, but it turned out to be more and more dirty, and soon became a big face .

"This……"

Daisia's face turned red immediately, but Olivia didn't care, it didn't matter what her daughter became, as long as she was healthy, the younger sister walked over with a smile, grabbed Daisia's trouser legs and said that her sister had become a tabby cat Yes, Daisia ​​was angry and funny, picked up her sister and turned around, then rubbed her dirty face on her sister's face, playing around like a child.

"What kind of work are you doing? I think you seem to have lost weight?" Olivia asked while brushing Daisia's hair distressed.

"Sorge and I work as skilled workers here, researching new weapons every day, and practicing drawing magic circles when we have time. Mom, don't look at me looking dirty, but it's not hard at all..."

"Worker? How did you become a worker?"

"Uncle Sun Boyang said that I am good at wind magic and painting, so he asked me to help make tools and weapons, so I am also a worker...well, a blacksmith."

"Your body..."

"Mom, don't look down on me, I can go but the archer!"

"But your bow is so easy to shoot arrows because I added the "shock" effect."

"Ah? Daisy, is your bow enchanted?"

"Mom! You exposed all my shortcomings!"

The three members of Daisia's family are happy and happy, but the Sog family over there is not so good. Sog looked nervously at the four elders in front of him. These were the objects he was afraid of when he was a child. Unexpectedly, The elder brothers who wrote to him did not come this time, but the oldest members of the family came first..."

"Sorge!"

Han Suo shouted at Sog angrily.

"What's the matter with your clothes? Also, didn't you say that this is a blacksmith's shop?"

"That's right, Dad, there is no difference. The only change is that it has become a multi-person cooperation. You see, the factory is short of skilled workers. You can come to help and study that cannon..."

"Don't come here! Let me ask you, how did you endure letting others touch your weapon?"

"This……"

Soge is not good at words, nor is he very talkative. Sun Boyang saw Soge's embarrassment, and interrupted the topic with a slight smile.

"Why do you think this is a very undignified thing? After all, you haven't seen it with your own eyes."

"you ask me?"

Han Suo cast Sun Boyang's eyes in disdain, and snorted again.

"You are the owner of the workshop here, right? Let me ask you, a blacksmith, how can you tolerate the weapons you have made being taken over by others? You are afraid that you have never even been in the blacksmith's shop, and you are just an old man who doesn't know anything. master."

"Since you think so, why don't we compete and see who can convince whom?"

Sun Boyang smiled and put his hips on his hips. Suoge heard Sun Boyang's "trap", turned his back and couldn't look at his father with a smile.

"Okay, just compare, compare what, you say."

Han Suo's father is also very unconvinced. Although there are few dwarves who specialize in forging, Han Suo is older, well-informed and the leader of this dwarf settlement. Naturally, he is more respectful of himself. Forge with confidence.

"Old man, since you think you know forging very well, and you think my factory is wrong, then let me tell you about the principles and structure of the machinery in the factory, and then how about you correct it?"

Using one's own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses is the classic routine of his hometown. To deal with such an uncle who eats soft but not hard, instead of quarreling meaninglessly, it is better to show him something real. Sun Boyang has a good temper Bad times, he is usually very patient with such a stubborn but not bad person.

(ps: I still don’t understand steel wire ( ーдー), what’s the use of civilian factories and military factories? Can transport planes also fight wars?)

86 Science is the primary productive force

Dwarves are a very interesting race. Their height is generally no more than 1.5 meters, and their ability to sense elements is also average, and it can even be said to be very poor. This shortcoming of the dwarf kingdom, the golden dwarves among the four high-ranking dwarves in the dwarf kingdom, almost all men, women and children of the dwarves can cast electric magic, but the shortcoming is also very big. Their spell-casting tools must be made of gold, and pure gold is the best. Well, gold-plated ones can also have some effect. If it is pure gold, then they will smile and treat you as a guest of honor.

Similarly, other dwarf races also have various hobbies, which is probably why dwarves like to accumulate treasures all over the country.

On the contrary, dwarves are a race that is very good at forging and mining. Different human kingdoms have relatively primitive mining and forging technologies. The development of the dwarf kingdom can be said to be leading in this regard. The former southern kingdom included elves and humans. They are all keen to go to the dwarf kingdom to order armor or weapons. In the north, the princes and generals of the three major kingdoms are also proud of the weapons made by the dwarves. It is a pity that this prosperous civilization was wiped out in the flames of war. The next piece of ruins will be left to future generations to imagine.

Under the impact of the symphony of natural disasters, the dwarf kingdom was almost wiped out in just a few years, and the remaining dwarves were forced to march north. The equatorial prairie or the human country are obviously neither places to settle down. In the form of guerrillas, the remnants of the dwarves established a city in the Southern Cross Forest, barely leaving a place for their families to live in, but they chose The place is extremely embarrassing, it is just at the southernmost end of the Southern Cross Forest, it is close to the south, and it is difficult to communicate with the north, so after the demons started going north, they quickly lost contact with the northern city. Up to now, there has been no new news .

Most of the dwarves who successfully migrated to the north came by sea. They set off from the eastern part of the Western Empire of the United States, crossed the "Hundred Thousand Mountains" and the long "Deep Flame Desert" outside the eastern border of Yongdalim, and finally arrived at They crossed the southeast border of Yondalim and settled down here.

Years of travel and exhaustion allow them to live here with peace of mind. Some of them go hunting with their ancestral guns or axes, and become professional adventurers, some become hunters, and more still inherit old skills. Continue to find a blacksmith shop and make a living by forging iron.

The good times didn't last long, and problems arose after only a few years. Whether it was the Kingdom of Yondalim, the Ossus Empire, or the eighteen principalities in the West, there was a wave of rejection of dwarven blacksmiths. The reason is very simple. Don't look at it. There are not many dwarves in the country, and it seems that there are not many dwarves, but the problem is that the men in the dwarf kingdom basically know how to blacksmith. It is difficult for people to ignore, so the Kingdom of Yongdalim finally decided that except for very few dwarves with very rich experience in blacksmithing, they can continue to be blacksmiths, and all others are prohibited from participating.

When His Majesty Ivan came to power, in order to divert domestic refugee conflicts that grew year by year, the group of dwarves was taken out again. This time, the law directly canceled the kingdom nationality of most dwarves except for a very small number of dwarves. Well, dwarves have such a hard life, and therefore, there have been very few dwarves who can master forging proficiently in the past few decades.

But the habits in the bones are hard to change. Although there is no way and no conditions, as long as they are trained a little, they will often become forging masters again. This is the case with Sog. After mastering how to use the machine, he can even control the qualification of iron very finely, and he can quickly understand the meaning of some drawings. Although he is still very young, he is indeed a skilled and qualified worker.

Sun Boyang has studied many basic and practical subjects such as mechanical engineering, mechanical structure analysis, and mechanical manufacturing technology, which are very suitable for him now. Needless to say, he liked to argue when he was in school. The form of this argument is: several roommates get together and start arguing over a set of engineering drawings. In this debate, Sun Boyang still wins more.

An hour later, Daisia's family was full, and Daisia ​​led them down to visit the work place. The noodles in the bowl of Suoge's family had not eaten half, and they were already lumpy. The four of them were one by one. They are all amazed, facing the drawings in front of them is really amazing, I don't know what language to use to describe it.

"This is unbelievable..."

Han Suo stared wide-eyed, and took out his glasses from his small pocket to examine carefully. This was simply a whimsical idea, beyond his cognition. No one thought that those metals could be turned into such wonderful things. Bearings, Gears, screws... all kinds of things, the combination of these crystallizations of human wisdom can produce such a huge vitality. It only needs the magic power in the magic crystal to drive it, even though the magic products have been vigorous before. However, no one thought that magic products could not only be used in some small objects, such as magic lamps, magic pots, etc., but could also be used in production.

This is actually a very normal way of thinking. The Kingdom of Yongdalim is a standard feudal kingdom in another world. Before the emergence of factories, large-scale production operations and assembly operations basically did not exist. Until Sun Boyang came here to synthesize what he knew According to the situation, he thinks that the inventions and utensils that the Kingdom of Yongdalim has now can barely produce something like a magical machine under the drive of the magic crystal. Enough for a big production breakthrough to happen.

Even so, this is a long and continuous process of improvement. Based on the evolution of the basic magical machinery, various types of factories have more or less adjusted to suit themselves, some focus more on steam power, and some choose To enhance the efficiency of magic crystal conduction, although the adjustment range is small, it can be seen that it is trying to improve.

The heavy responsibility generally falls on the technical workers of the Toryask factory. Sun Boyang is also trying to reduce the cost of these large-scale production technologies and advance at a normal level of development like the steam engine. Judging from his accumulated experience, although it is impossible, the conditions are also It is not allowed to directly promote the use of the steam engine to the late stage, but it will not take more than half a century to reach the late stage like history.

Of course, this is still a gradual process. Technology must adapt to the social environment. Various factors will affect the development and large-scale use of technology. Fortunately, Sun Boyang is still the speaker now, and he can more or less reconcile some of these No matter which forces are dissatisfied with this kind of development, they can deal with it in a relatively stable manner with their current status.

Hope this happens later.

Sun Boyang thought so.

As for magic crystals, or magical machines, due to various reasons such as cost, Sun Boyang has gradually given up on low-end applications in this area, and instead pursues machines that are more value for money and more suitable for current needs.

That is, military machinery.

"Are you worried about the magic cannon?"

Han Suo and Sun Boyang sat together, holding a cigarette in his hand, looking at the blueprint in front of him and discussing together. He has been completely "conquered". Sun Boyang's research on forging and manufacturing is even higher than theirs. He can be called a master blacksmith. Naturally, he is a figure worthy of their respect. Dwarves are a very straight-tempered, straight-forward race. They were happy when they were happy, and sad when they were sad. As long as the misunderstanding was resolved, they and Sun Boyang would immediately become friends, the kind of people who never met each other.

"Yes, I don't know what's wrong with the magic cannon I designed. It can't meet the requirements I need. I don't know whether it's the magic crystal that doesn't match, or the manufacturing process is wrong, but the solid bullets fired often can't fly. 100 meters, this distance sounds very bluffing at first, but it is not practical at all on the actual battlefield, such a distance of [-] meters..."

Sun Boyang smiled helplessly. The magic guide cannon didn't know what was going on, but it just couldn't make any qualitative progress. Obviously everything that should be designed has been designed, so why is it still like this?

"I heard what you mean. Your requirement is at least a range of 400 meters, and the power will not attenuate too much. Now I only read your drawings and listened to your thoughts. I feel that it is indeed relatively Reasonable." Han Suo replied with a nod between his cigarettes.

"The interior is powered by magic crystals, and the magic circle depicted: the impact provides the impact and pushes the shells to shoot out. This idea is no problem. I heard from my grandfather that the magic cannon back then was almost the same principle, but others But it shot too far."

"How many meters can the previous magic cannon shoot?"

"If it's high, it can usually reach at least 200 meters, and the shells fired by the magic cannon will explode. At that time, the silver dwarves among the upper dwarves were in charge of making the shells. They refined them from silver. Refining the purer and more precious silver into a powerful cannon, I heard that if it is refined with mithril, its power can be compared to a volcano erupting."

"Besides, there were not only magic cannons, but also various dwarven firecrackers and the more advanced Guli dwarven firecrackers. The Guli dwarven firecrackers could shoot into the sky. At that time, I heard that there were special defenses against the demons. Even if the ghoul's anti-aircraft firecrackers are at an altitude of a thousand meters, the Guli dwarf firecrackers can easily hit them."

"Unfortunately, they all disappeared in the long river of history. Now even a dwarf short gun is very rare." Sun Boyang took out the short gun and handed it to Han Suo to see.

"You don't need to be too depressed. I guess it must be the problem of the magic crystal. It is probably because the level of the magic crystal is not enough to meet the standard." Han Suo replied, groping for the dwarf short gun.

"Well, potassium nitrate and charcoal are relatively easy. The only problem is that there is no sulfur mine in Yongdalim." Sun Boyang said helplessly to himself.

(ps: A little personal thought: technology is not achieved overnight, it is subject to many aspects, such as politics, economy, people's needs and interests, and the needs and interests of social groups, so I have always been more cautious in describing technology , as reasonable as possible, but everyone can rest assured that modern weapons will definitely be seen by everyone. You don’t have to worry about fighting each other with cold weapons and magical technology everywhere. (?°з °)-?)

87 Cannons and Guns

"Sulphur? What are you doing with it? What is potassium nitrate?"

Han Suo and the other three asked very puzzled.

"Isn't sulfur only used by doctors who see patients? What are you going to do with it?"

"Not only can you see a doctor." Sun Boyang knocked on the table with one hand and said to the four people around him.

"You should know that there are many alchemists in the Ossus Empire. This is what they discovered. They discovered in several "alchemy" that the alchemy formula adding sulfur and saltpeter is easy to explode. Because of the many times, sulfur and saltpeter Saltpeter has gradually become a forbidden material that cannot be mixed into alchemy."

"But the problem is that the Ossus Empire is a bit far away. It is not a long-term solution to buy the sulfur of the Ossus Empire. If there is a large demand, the price will increase. If the price increases, the Ossus Empire will easily be valued by the Ossus Empire. The result of being valued , is difficult to determine.”

"In the Southwest Province, there are people who have recorded the mining of sulfur, but the mining of that sulfur mine has not been high, and we don't know its specific storage capacity. The most important thing is that it is now the territory of Grand Duke Nicholas. , judging from the deployment of the army, in the short term..."

Sun Boyang fell into thinking again, Han Suo and the others saw Sun Boyang so focused, they simply picked up the noodles and muttered together while eating, they are all people who have traveled all over the world to seek a living in many places, for their livelihood, they have been to many places, It is natural to be able to discuss something when we get together.

Sun Boyang smiled again, put out the cigarette in his hand, stood up and looked at these dwarves.

"So, would you like to work in my factory?"

"I'm extremely honored, but I don't know if it will burden you." Han Suo swallowed all the noodles in one go, wiped two handfuls on his clothes and said to Sun Boyang.

"Father, Mr. Sun Boyang is not just a factory owner." Sog couldn't help interjecting with a smile.

"Dwarfs are not allowed to take in anything. This is very strict. Even the nobles have to sneak around." The uncle Khan who was next to him shook his head and said.

"Where's Prime Minister Left?"

"Left Prime Minister too... Wait, what are you talking about? Left Prime Minister?"

Han Suo was shocked all of a sudden, he turned his eyes to his son, his eyes were full of shock and surprise.

"Yes, Mr. Sun Boyang's current position is equivalent to that of the former left minister." Soge nodded his head as a matter of course.

"Are there any concerns?" Sun Boyang took out another cigarette and shared it with Han Suo.

"Happy to serve you, my sir." Han Suo replied with a brisk tone after taking a deep breath.

"The tentative salary is still sixty copper coins. You can live in a hotel called Friend of Workers. The rent is very cheap. I run it, so don't worry about anything else."

Sun Boyang and others came to the workshop together. They climbed up the stairs and looked down. Whether it was the Daisia ​​family, the Sog family, or Stephen, they all showed shocking expressions. Looking from the steps of the stairs, the entire workshop The degree of shock it brought them was no less than seeing a giant dragon.

"Brother, your place is getting brighter and brighter, much better than what I saw last time." Stephen looked at the continuous production of swords and swords in front of him, thinking about how much money he could earn.

Now Han Suo and the others finally understand what is going on with the so-called flowing water production. This is a scene that will surprise any relevant practitioners. After this scene, Han Suo and the others were completely convinced. Mr. Da is Mr. Da, and they are not comparable to rough men like them. No wonder they can become prime ministers.

"Don't talk about sixty copper coins, even fifty or forty copper coins. I'll do it too. You have opened a lot. Didn't this kid, Sog, cause you any trouble? He's messy, and he always makes trouble at home." Han Suo laughed loudly. Laughing, he hooked Sog's neck and patted his chest and said.

"Sog is an excellent worker. He can read very quickly. I'm considering giving him a salary increase." Sun Boyang looked at Sog and smiled gently.

"I just study hard, and the glasses my father gave me are very suitable for night vision, so I studied more." Sog touched his head a little embarrassedly and laughed. After all, he is only a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. , younger than Migaoqi and the others, it is naturally embarrassing to be praised by Sun Boyang like this.

"You still teach literacy, it's amazing, but it's amazing."

Hanso sighed.

"You can't find a few masters like you in the entire southern region. It's so grateful for your kindness."

"No need, what I do, you can get it by yourself sooner or later." Sun Boyang waved his hand and laughed with Han Suo, and it was finalized in this way. The four hard-working dwarf craftsmen are really capable The Ministry of Skilled Workers has added a lot of fire. Under the current environment, there are too few workers who want to find this kind of courageous invention. Of course, this also has a part of the problem of extremely backward education. In terms of education, there is indeed an urgent need.

"You can see when you can bring your family members. It doesn't matter if you don't. Anyway, there are postmen who can deliver letters. It's okay to send money back." Sun Boyang said again.

"Mr. Sun Boyang, you forgot, Nanfang..." Aunt Ajielina interrupted from the side.

"Oh, yes, it's like this... the south, like this, it's better to take it, Stephen, you can take my signed letter, and you can come and go in and out of the entire central province at will, and no one will embarrass you, but don't do it when you arrive in the southern region Take it, there is a good chance something will happen.”

"What the hell happened? I look at you, bro. Did something bad happen? I heard you say that the nobles fled and got into a fight? Tell me, is it..."

Stephen's sense of smell has always been keen, and he felt something was wrong as soon as he entered the central province, especially when he entered the royal city, but he felt a little relieved when he saw that the defenders of the city were still acquaintances, but he had already done it Be prepared to check the situation as soon as you leave the factory.

"You'll understand when you go out to inquire." Sun Boyang didn't answer, and he didn't want to reveal his identity directly. God knows whether Stephen would lick like a Doug on the spot after knowing his identity now.

"As for Miss Shanny..."

Sun Boyang still lacks a magician here, but I don’t know if it’s suitable or not. You said that if Miss Shanny and Mr. Bastard get in touch in the future, will it be...

"Miss Shanny, would you like to stay here for a while, or go back?" Sun Boyang turned his head and asked.

"Uncle Sun Boyang, I assure you, Shanny is not that kind of person." Daisia ​​saw Sun Boyang's doubts, and quickly stood up and said.

"Daisia, you can't guarantee your ticket in this regard." Sun Boyang said as he patted the head of the girl who was about to keep up with him.

"Uncle, there is always a shortage of magicians in the magician team. You won't let the ready-made magicians go?" Shana stood behind Daisia, put her hands on Daisia's shoulders, poked her head out from behind her cunningly Asked.
