Chapter 63 Serving the public with civil technology
As for Esqi's civilian technology, Yide also saw many magical things here, such as lighters made of magic stones, cameras made based on the magic circle for taking pictures, and cameras made based on the triple magic circle.
The shower that came out, the copy machine based on the reflection magic circle...all the new and weird things opened Ide's horizons.
However, this also made Yide discover the shortcomings of Aishiqi's civilian technology.
Magic energy civilian technology can indeed bear the word "magic energy". Yide has not even seen any technological achievements on Esqi's side. There is no magic stone or magic circle.
Real civilian technology is not like this. Civilian technology that truly benefits the people should start from the bottom of the masses.
Civilian technology is meant to be used by people at the lowest level.
Magic energy civilian technology can only be said to be high technology that can only be used by middle-income families and above.
For example, if a poor person in a slum area lights up his kerosene lamp, is it possible that he will take out a magic lighter in a domineering manner? With this high-tech gadget, why not exchange it for some food to add some food to his hungry children?
Woolen cloth.
For this reason, when Yide asked with some doubts why civilian technology must use magic energy, Ai Shiqi was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
At this moment, Ai Shiqi recalled the reason why the masters who served as judges couldn't help but shake their heads every time civilian technology participated in the Grand Prize in the past few years.
Wrong, the entire civilian science and technology alchemists thought wrong from the beginning.
As a researcher of civilian technology for the benefit of people, my thinking is actually limited to this magical energy.
At this moment, Ai Shiqi even felt that the magic civilian technology that dared to go on stage to participate in the Grand Prize in recent years was simply sensationalism and completely flashy. We want to benefit the people, and our products are not used to enrich the rich.
The life of a rich man or aristocrat!
Thinking of this, when Ai Shiqi looked down at Yide again, his face was full of guilt. Ai Shiqi bowed deeply to Yide, which immediately shocked Yide.
"Teacher Ai Shiqi, what are you doing?" Yi De quickly raised his hand to help Ai Shiqi up.
"Little... no, Yide, this gift is the gratitude and guilt of our civilian technology designers. Thank you, thank you Yide for waking me up. No, I must write a paper immediately to accuse us of what we are doing now.
We are alchemists of civilian technology, and our dream is to help more people. We have found mistakes, and it is not too late to correct them now."
"Well, what about your alchemy prize, Mr. Ai Shiqi?" Hearing Ai Shiqi's regretful words, Yide thought to himself, why does it feel like he shot himself in the foot?
"I, Ai Shiqi, have not developed a product that truly benefits the people. I, Ai Shiqi, am ashamed of myself for not having the showmanship on my face!" Ai Shiqi said decisively. These firm words immediately made Yide's heart feel like thousands of grass and mud horses galloping past.
Yide covered his face, what the hell is this? Are you cheating yourself? Can this cheating dungeon mission stop playing tricks on me like this? Sure enough, this sentence is a wise saying, and Yide couldn't help but burst into tears.
Yide, who had a severe headache, had no choice but to take out a small box from his backpack and hand it to Ai Shiqi.
"Teacher Ai Shiqi, if you really want to publish a paper, please put this thing in the Alchemy Award in your name."
"What is this?" Ai Shiqi opened the box with some confusion and looked at the thin wooden sticks in the box. At one end of the small wooden sticks, there was a red special material. Ai Shiqi couldn't help but be curious.
He came closer and fanned it gently with one hand, letting the wind bring the smell of the red material of the small wooden stick into his nose, "Is this... red phosphorus and sulfur? It seems that there are some other chemical accelerants added?"
Yide once again took the small box from Ai Shiqi's hand and explained to Ai Shiqi: "This is a match. Just strike it lightly. Teacher Ai Shiqi, please don't refuse. You need it now. This is
For the sake of the people, and also to bring civilian technology back from the brink. If you really feel bad about it, just sign me up as your assistant in the product partner column."
"Actually, something similar to this match already exists in the folk. After all, this thing is easy to make. This match is a product of fine processing. Compared with the folk thing called the ignition stick, this one is more
More secure and convenient.”
A beautiful orange flame bloomed quietly.
Looking at this most beautiful flame, Ai Shiqi was so moved that he wanted to cry. Looking at Yide who looked at him with sincere eyes, Ai Shiqi nodded heavily.
Looking at the matches, Ai Shiqi understood that this was something that could really be used by everyone, without expensive magic stones and magic circles. This was a civilian product that the people really needed, and Ai Shiqi could see and make it.
Simple matches can start a new industrial chain, and the unemployed people in the empire will have new job opportunities.
"Your Excellency Yide, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" He took out this match, which is a treasure for civilian technology. Ai Shiqi no longer has any plans to accept Yide as his apprentice. He has already
Treat Ide as a person of the same level. For Ide who took out the matches, if you accept him as an apprentice, wouldn't you be slapping yourself hard in the face?
In the next few days, Esqi and Weta entered into intense preparations. One was bringing a large group of people to desperately conquer the aircraft, and the other was writing a "Report on Civilian Technology Alchemy" that satisfied them.
"Teacher's Book".
The two master alchemists left early and came back late, which left Yide with some free time. For this reason, in the Swarovski National Alchemy Workshop these days, you can often see a pink doll holding a piece of paper made by two
The special pass signed by the master himself was fluttering around the alchemy workshop.
The cute little ghostly guy has established a good relationship with many alchemists in the workshop. In the past few days, Yide has been hanging out with this group of alchemists just to supplement his knowledge of the science of this world.
blank knowledge.
The week passed quickly with full dedication. Vita, the master of alchemy and martial arts, finally successfully created a white unmanned reconnaissance drone named "Snow Wind" on the last day.
Vita believed that this reconnaissance plane was an auspicious sign for the empire and the reconnaissance battalion.
The salute roared, and beside the royal city of the imperial capital, an "Alchemy Exhibition Hall" building that resembled a Roman arena ushered in its own festival.
Under the regulations of His Majesty the Emperor, every Alchemy Award is open to everyone. As long as you pay a small entrance fee, you can visit this Alchemy Award that is full of novel and interesting alchemical products.
"Ladies and gentlemen! With much anticipation, this year's Alchemy Awards grandly opens! Welcome everyone! Let us enjoy a technological feast brought by alchemists!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Dear viewers, we have received a temporary notice. This is a notice personally ordered by His Majesty the Emperor. Here, I will read for you a letter from the master alchemist Esch Swarovski."
""A Letter to Civilian Science and Technology Alchemists": Dear friends, I am Ai Shiqi, a civilian science alchemist who has suddenly awakened. Now I am going to announce a report that may bring about huge changes in civilian science and technology."
"I am very happy that I can be the initiator of this huge change. Since the founding of the empire, the development of alchemy has been encouraged on a large scale. As a result, our alchemy field has developed rapidly. However, I am not going to say this praise today. Studying
Alchemists of civilian technology, do we still remember the first dream in our hearts?"
“We dream that the civilian alchemy items made with our hard work can be used by the people; we dream that the people at the bottom of the country can also have enough food and clothing, and have this happy smile on their faces; we dream that with our hands we can
Our country has laid a solid foundation."
"With this dream, we, a group of alchemists from all over the world, come together to work together, pray together, struggle together, struggle together, think together, and maintain the authority of science together; because we know that one day, our dream will
It will actually come true.”
“However, I found that our dreams are gradually leaving us. I don’t know when, words such as ‘high-end’, ‘exquisite’, ‘beautiful’, and ‘elegant’ have become the alchemy produced by our civilian alchemists.
Praise for items. Being sought after by others, we gained honor and money. From then on, we forgot our original dream. How to benefit the people and serve the public? How can we do this? Only nobles can buy the exquisite ones.
Is the magic lighter that you can buy benefiting the people? And the bright crystal lighting that can only satisfy high-end buildings, is it benefiting the people?"
"No, not at all! We don't see those people in the slums, who have to use flints that have been retired to light a kerosene lamp in the dark, and keep hitting it to ignite the lamp. We don't see those people who are wandering around without a job.
The miserable life of a homeless man."
"...Everyone! If we still claim to be a civilian alchemist, can we use magic energy civilian technology to remove the 'magic energy'? Can we use our brains to create something that truly serves the public, rather than just
A perfect masterpiece that can only satisfy the vanity of the nobles!"
"I am Ai Shiqi. The item I participated in the Alchemy Award this time is a small box of matches. It has no magic power, no magic circle, and no extremely expensive alchemy materials. It is just some items that even ordinary people can imitate.
The match is a small match. But I can say that the match is the most beautiful flame in the world, and it will lead us back to the right path!"
