Chapter 168: Your mineral reserves are insufficient
These demons began to work intensively. If they could use the excuse of insufficient energy and insufficient resources to deal with Li Ke before, they would undoubtedly not be able to do so now.
After Li Ke began to hand over industrialization and standardization to the dragon technicians, and was willing to pay for their research and reward them, they seemed to have opened up the Ren and Du channels, with only one sentence in their minds.
industrialization.
Therefore, even if Li Ke did not interfere much in the work of the blast furnace, these dragon people still modified the blast furnace based on the ideas of other design drawings produced by Li Ke, and further optimized the standardization of carbon powder and other things needed for steelmaking.
Production Process.
Although they still cannot be compared with modern times, and they look just like small rural workshops, there is no doubt that they are beginning to be able to industrialize themselves.
And they built a small blast furnace, which is considered rubbish in the eyes of modern people. It can only produce one thousand tons of steel a day.
But this steel is enough to make the generator Li Ke needs, and even kill the entire Stormwind City instantly.
"Have all the supporting parts manufacturing machines been built?"
After watching Wald modify the design of Jenny Textile Machine again, adding cotton thread and other modules to it, so that the machine can be seamlessly transferred to cotton weaving by simply adjusting the machine, Li Ke put down his hands.
tools, sit aside and rest.
"Yes, but the production of steel is still not increasing. Mr. Li Ke, although you have recruited hundreds of workers, their work efficiency is still too low. They are not as fast as the dragons and dwarves."
Wald answered Li Ke while drawing the design drawing. He still felt that the speed was too slow, but without enough good steel and chips, or a magic core for processing, the accuracy could not be improved, and it would have to wait for power generation.
The motor can only be modified after the machine is built.
Therefore, Jenny Textile Machine has reached its limit in a short period of time, and it is only making final product parameter modifications to match the parts they are currently mass-manufacturing.
Parts such as nuts and metal rods that are now mass-produced need to be matched. This task is very simple for Wald.
"And please allow me to tell you the truth, Mr. Li Ke, the shortage of raw materials here is too great. You must add more workers so that we can help you build other supporting facilities... Even now, the most
At least more than 300 workers who understand basic chemistry are needed..."
"I know, I'm already thinking of a way, Walder. But I still have to take my time."
Li Ke was also helpless about this. In this era, how could he become 300 workers who understand basic chemistry?
Do you want Onyxia again?
"Why do I feel like I'm just a member of the Eight-Nation Alliance..."
Li Ke sighed helplessly. He now really admired the protagonists in those novels, who were so poor and had no specific knowledge or experience in the industry, that they were able to create industrialization out of nothing within a year or two.
He is almost running a money cheat, and a series of workers are having a headache. Now they are having a headache about where to get rubber and various petrochemical products - wires are also needed. Although they can be made of cloth
, but Li Ke doesn’t understand the principle, and Wald also needs time to study it, so for the time being, he still needs to find plastic.
In this way, if he initially achieved his expectations three years later, he would be considered cheating. After all, although fertilizer seems simple, it actually requires a lot of advanced technology.
Just purifying nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is a huge trouble, not to mention that the land of Azeroth does not necessarily need this.
So how do people who travel through historical fiction do it?
Li Ke wanted to know.
There is a shortage of everything in the western wilderness right now. Oils, acids, and a lot of compounds needed for industrialization need to be mined and purchased.
Although the rich mineral resources in the western wilderness can solve most of the problems, the problem also arises here.
There are still too few qualified workers. Although dragons and demons are powerful, there are only so many of them...
Just when Li Ke was distressed, a cold voice appeared in Li Ke's ear. Li Ke immediately turned his head and looked over, and found his guest, as well as the one he had inadvertently ignored, from Kuhl.
General of Tiras.
Telesta looked curiously at the machine next to Li Ke and Walder. The cloth on it told her what Li Ke had made. Although it was very delicate, it didn't have much magic, so she didn't care much.
Especially since the woolen cloth woven by this machine did not have any patterns and was just ordinary woolen cloth, she felt even more bored.
"Oh? You seem to be worried about something? And what kind of machine is this? A textile machine that doesn't require magic? It's really interesting, but Master Li Ke, this kind of thing has no soul, and there is no way to attach a magic circle.
Something like that.”
Telesta made her own comment. She had also made a sewing machine. To be precise, which magister who has reached this level has never used a sewing machine?
The clothes on her body were made by herself. Every thread and every pattern in the process has a unique effect, which can greatly improve the growth rate of this mage robe. To exaggerate, she put tens of thousands of them into it.
The magic circle penetrated his body.
But in fact it is not that exaggerated, because it only has a few functions - it is just stability and energy provided by countless small magic circles.
So she looked down on the sewing machine in front of Li Ke. Although the structure of this textile machine seemed faster than her own magic textile machine, her magic textile machine was used to make magic items, not this kind of sewing machine.
A shoddy thing.
"This thing is for ordinary people, so it certainly doesn't require any soul or art, dear Miss Teresta."
Li Ke is no longer surprised by the attitude towards elves that they should not eat minced meat, because elves are all like birds. They think they are civilized and advanced, but in fact...
If he wasn't really beautiful, he would just be a simple nuisance.
"But even if it's for ordinary people, it's a pity that it doesn't have patterns."
Telesta shook her head, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her question.
"As for this, we have different opinions, but I would like to ask Teresa, is it because you have found a suitable place that you are looking for me today?"
Teresita's request is a land full of magical energy. This is not not available in the western wilderness, but it is not as abundant as the elves.
Li Ke was curious as to why she came so quickly.
"The main reason is that this gentleman is looking for you, Mr. Hesenway, this gentleman from Kul Tiras."
Theresa stepped aside, revealing the taciturn man. The man sighed, then stood up and handed a letter to Li Ke.
But there is no doubt that he is not very willing.
Li Ke got the letter, and even though he already knew it was from Gianna, he still smiled knowingly after seeing the words on it - which made Mr. Hesenway even more ugly.
.
So Li Ke was looking forward to what Gianna had to say.
