The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 320
Everyone thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized that not only the Bai people, but also the craftsmen, Li, and Shang... Except for the most harmless Li people, almost all the foreign people who joined [Qingshi collar] were joining At the same time, it was split and subdivided into the composition of the entire [Blue Stone Collar].

If I have to describe it, [Qingshi collar] is like a big boiling soup pot, no matter what material is thrown into it, it will eventually be boiled into a soup that is indistinguishable from the original raw materials in the soup pot. This kind of super assimilation Ability is almost a consistent characteristic of the atmosphere in all departments of [Qingshi Ling].

If someone has paid attention, they will find that although the personnel composition of [Qingshi Ling] seems to be chaotic, in fact, whether they are Baimin, Craftsman, Li, or Shang, while retaining their own ethnic characteristics, they are They also have to be attached to [Bluestone Collar], because once they leave [Bluestone Collar], they will be beaten back to their original shape and become nothing.

For example, the Shang family represented by Gu Ning, once he leads the "Yin Shang descendants-Chen Ge family-Gu family-Zi surname" business firm under his name, and breaks away from [Qingshi collar] to stand on his own, then he will completely lose [Tian Industrial Group] supply of various sources.

Not to mention the current "supermarkets" under the name of [Tiangong Group], which have been opened all over the prefectures and cities of [Zhongrong County]. Industrial Group] merchandise sales.

Just because of the tight supply of Tiangong products in [Zhongrong County], [Tiangong Group] does not need to open up sales channels by itself, and merchants from all over the world will pounce on them like sharks smelling blood.

It can be said that once the "Yu's Zi surname business firm" announces its separation from [Qingshi Ling], immediately, there will be a large number of merchants crying and clamoring to join [Qingshi Ling] to replace their original positions.

And without the "Gushizi surname firm", although [Qingshiling]'s commercial sales channels and sales systems will be affected to a certain extent, it will definitely not hurt the muscles and bones. If you don't have a surname business", you will be beaten back to one of the twelve surnames of the Nanwan merchants, one of the twelve surnames of the Gu family of the Chengge twelve clan!

So, as long as Gu Ning is not stupid, he will not give up his current position even if he dies, and he will definitely not change the position of "Shang Clan Lord".

The same is true for the craftsmen, once they leave [Qingshi Ling], without the huge industrial chain and advanced equipment of [Tiangong Group], they are just one of the ordinary Dahuang craftsmen. They may not even get jobs.

In such a big environment, not to mention which tribe intends to plot rebellion, even if they want to fly solo, they can't do it. Although the personnel composition of [Qingshi collar] is complicated, it has also formed a structure of mutual restraint. Anyone who dares to threaten The tribes, forces, and groups of their interests will all be attacked by members of other forces with unremitting efforts!
To be precise, the existence of [Qingshi Ling] is like an emperor who sits on a Diaoyutai high above. A good way of checks and balances, no matter how the courtiers fight for power with life and death, they have to rely on it as the center of power, and in the end no one can threaten its rule.

In fact, the Bai people under [Qingshi collar] intend to restore the country, which is considered a good thing for [Qingshi collar], because even if the white people succeed in restoring the country, they are already used to [Qingshi collar] They have a special way of life, and they can no longer return to their original state of life. They must be attached to the sphere of influence of the [Qingshi collar] and exist in the form of a vassal state.

This is the unique charm of [Qingshi collar]. After getting used to the life of modern civilization, can you bear to go back to the environment of the primitive era?

Among other things, let a person who is used to tap water fetch water to eat every day; People who have convenient transportation when they go out rely on their legs.

People who are used to convenience stores and small supermarkets when they go out, you let him go to the market only once in ten days and a half months, people who are used to warm down jackets, you let him wrap a piece of animal skin and stay shirtless for winter, get used to it A person who has a rich menu of seasonal vegetables, chicken, duck and fish, you let him eat boiled cabbage in water without even adding salt...

And all of this can only be enjoyed by the workers living under the [Qingshi collar], who can bear to suddenly abandon this living condition and become a primitive person again?
So, as long as Guyi grasps the rhythm in the general direction, he doesn't have to worry about the rebellion of the workers and people under his flag, or breaking away from [Qingshi collar] to stand on his own.

"Bai Minuo's affairs are left to the Bai people themselves to handle."

Gu Yi smiled and said: "I don't care how to solve this problem, I just need the final result, if the Bai people want to restore the country, then [Qingshi collar] can give corresponding assistance and support! You can figure it out yourself! "

Once the white people successfully restore the country and attach themselves to the [Bluestone Territory], both the political status and the sphere of influence of the [Bluestone Territory] will increase dramatically, at least for the future development of the [Bluestone Territory] Lay a good base pattern.

Everyone was silent for a while. It was obviously difficult to understand this situation. The difference between a leader who relies on power to protect his rights and a leader whose subordinates actively protect their rights cannot be compared.

After obtaining the full authorization of Gu Yi, the salesman resolutely took the order and left. After being greatly shocked, Gu Ning and Zi Yu also saluted Gu Yi in awe and left in a hurry to arrange the "Tiangong Products Fair" " and related matters related to the recall of the old-style Fangge ships of the caravan and the replacement of [-] new-style clipper ships.

After finishing the two official duties, Gu Yi also relaxed, his eyes fell on Si Xiaonuo who was standing beside him, he raised his hand subconsciously, but found that the old "consultants" had no eyesight, Standing aside with bowed eyes and hands tied.

Gu Yi couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't let them go out. Si Xiaonuo on the side blushed. The two of them got closer recently. When they get along in private, they will inevitably hug and kiss each other. If Gu Yi didn't feel that Si Xiaonuo was young and suspected of killing the seedlings if he struck too early, he would have eaten her long ago.

Si Xiaonuo was afraid that Gu Yi, a daring guy, would be careless in front of others, so she said with shame: "Taiyi, Nuonuo recently checked the classics handed down from the [Twelve Pavilions of Heavenly Secrets], and found something that might solve our [Qingshi collar's] problems." ] The labor shortage problem..."

Guyi was stunned for a moment, and the body sitting on the chair immediately sat up straight. [Qingshi Collar] has been plagued by the problem of manpower shortage in the large-scale development. Five hundred million people sounds like a huge population, but compared to [Iron The land area of ​​millions of square kilometers in Furnace Castle is simply a drop in the bucket.

You must know that this roughly estimated land area of ​​millions of square kilometers has not included those mountains, hills, forests, water pools, Gobi, deserts, swamps, wetlands and other terrains.

Not to mention the [Heming Junji Mountain], [Juling in Tianshan], and [Nieyaoyu Mountain] adjacent to [Qingshiling], which can almost be called the "wall of the mainland" Bailizu Mountain Range Well, so far, he has never had an intuitive concept of how long, how big, and how high these three ancestral mountains are.

If all these mountains, hills, forests, water pools, Gobi, deserts, swamps, wetlands and other terrains within the sphere of influence of [Qingshi Ling] are fully developed, the total area may not exceed tens of millions of square kilometers.

In the eyes of Gu Yi, these lands are all treasure-like lands, but in the eyes of the people in the wild, they are just useless barren mountains, wild mountains, poor water and barren soil, completely presenting the original features of the absolute ecology. The full development of the land is probably not something that can be done in ten or eight years with a population of [-] million people, let alone expanding outwards, expanding the sphere of influence to the nine castles of [Rongshi City].

The Great Wilderness World is too vast, too huge, and too rich. All kinds of natural resources, such as animals, plants, and minerals, have been piled up on this huge land for thousands of years, and no one cares about them. , was actually considered by the people in the wilderness to be ghosts in the poor mountains and rivers, Gu Yi felt sorry for them.

However, compared to the richness of the Great Wilderness, the developer [Qingshi Ling] has too insignificant development capabilities, just like a mouse that got into a granary, no matter how desperately he devoured it, he couldn’t bear it to death. There is a way to eat up those piles of food.

If the problem of development ability can be solved, the development speed of [Qingshi Collar] will be raised to a level that is enough to shock the world.

If we can fully reproduce the technology of Guyi's original world, and replace manpower with mechanical power, it may be able to improve the development ability of [Qingshi Collar] by hundreds or even thousands of times, but the problem is that the technology of [Qingshi Collar] is stuck. On a very awkward joint, I am afraid that this problem cannot be solved in a short time.

But now Si Xiaonuo said that he found a solution to the labor shortage from the classics of [Twelve Pavilions of Heavenly Secrets]. It does not refer to the "secret of heaven" that "secrets of heaven cannot be revealed", but the "skill of mechanism" mastered by the highest state of the craftsman family, "Tiangong".

And the "machine" in this so-called "art of machine making" roughly means "organ" in Gu Yi's understanding. The mechanical creation is similar to the mechanical principles that Gu Yi knows.

[Ma Note: The source of the wooden cow and horse is not explained. The wooden kite magpie and the wooden chariot horse come from the public transport, that is, Lu Ban. Here it is seriously suspected that Lu Ban is a time traveler. He can cut wood and bamboo to make a magpie that can fly for three days. Investigating intelligence inside the enemy city, isn't this a scouting plane?Lao Ma did not delve into whether that thing can carry people. If it can carry people, it is a manned reconnaissance plane. If it cannot carry people, it will be more advanced, an unmanned reconnaissance plane!And the "wooden chariot" is even more awesome. It is said that it is a wooden chariot driven by a wooden man. Isn't this a self-propelled machine driven by a robot? 】

When designing the psychic computer before, Gu Yi discovered that some of the technologies possessed by this [Twelve Pavilions of Heaven's Secrets] are very wonderful. It is possible to engrave spiritual patterns on materials through alchemy to create functions similar to circuits. Thanks to this, his psionic computer was born.

Although there is no way to completely understand the content of the [-] volumes of "Tianjishu" in a short period of time, this set of classics has aroused Gu Yi's interest, and he plans to combine it with the technology he has mastered to create a The psychic civilization system comes.

As for the "method" that Si Xiaonuo said, after those old men pushed out a strange wooden instrument from the suite next to her office, Gu Yi was really taken aback!
It's hard to describe what it is, it looks like a wooden barrel mounted on a pair of wooden wheels, but a pair of bendable tongs are installed on the wooden barrel, and a wooden barrel is topped" "Head", on which the eyebrows, eyes, ears, nose, mouth and other facial features are drawn with ink, which looks very strange.

I don't know how many old people fiddled with the wooden barrel. This strange thing started to move with a "click, click, click", relying on the two wooden wedges behind the wheels to move in and out. The jacking ground moved, and a pair of bendable pincers also turned and waved around, with a scary look of teeth and claws.

"What the hell!"

Guyi was taken aback by the strange thing that moved suddenly, but was immediately attracted by it, and curiously surrounded it, trying to find out how it works.

Although Gu Yi didn't understand the principle of this thing for the time being, he thought it was similar to the tin frog that he played with when he was a child and would jump by himself after being wound up, but this thing was obviously more complicated and sophisticated.

What made Guyi curious was that he obviously didn't see those old men winding up this strange thing, but he just pressed it a few times, and it started to move "click click", and wandered all over the place It's been half a day, and I haven't stopped because of exhaustion.

Gu Yi held down the "barrel" that was spinning around without any reason, fumbled on it for a while, and successfully removed the body of the round barrel, but because he didn't know what he touched , this thing immediately lost power and was paralyzed.

What surprised Gu Yi the most was that the inside of the "barrel" was not the gears and clockwork he imagined, but just a group of complex wooden strips, which were built together like building blocks to form a "skeleton" structure. In the center of this group of "skeletons", a wooden ball the size of a fist is hanging down and swinging back and forth with a hemp rope!
"Damn it! A compound pendulum system based on the pendulum principle?"

Guyi was taken aback. Although it was not the same as the pendulum theory he knew, the appearance of this set was obviously very similar to the pendulum theory. The "barrel" could move obviously because of the swing in its body. The wooden ball drives those wooden bar mechanisms to perform lever movement, thereby gaining power!
When the old men next to them saw that Guyi was frightened by the "wooden barrel", their faces were full of smug smiles, but after Guyi opened the barrel and saw the wooden ball pendulum inside, the nouns that he blurted out were no longer Startled them.

Seeing that Guyi was just "surprised" instead of "surprised", an old man asked very puzzled, "Could it be that Shaoyi knew about this 'wooden puppet shape'?"

Gu Yi looked up and saw that it was Master Lance who helped him translate the secret text in "Tianji Shu", so he smiled and nodded: "I played some games when I was young..."

In Guyi's impression, puppets are things like shadow puppetry, string puppets, and Pinocchio. Strictly speaking, the wind-up tin frogs and battery-powered Transformers he played with when he was young are also Some kind of "high-tech puppet"?

But he didn't know that he casually said "I used to play some when I was young", but made Master Lang Si and several other old people stare very wide. After looking at each other for a while, when it fell on Guyi, there were more Suddenly the color.

Maybe in their eyes, the steam locomotives and trams that they can't understand appearing in [Qingshi Collar], maybe they are the products of some kind of puppetry?Gu Yi's ability to create artifacts that even "mechanists" like them can't understand, obviously has something to do with the puppet arts he has been exposed to since he was a child, right?

Even puppet art, which is an advanced technique, has been in contact with it since childhood. It seems that Gu Yi's identity, as they guessed, has a lot of origins!

Under the suggestion of the gazes of all the machine builders, master Lance coughed, and inquired seemingly unintentionally: "I don't know what kind of 'wooden puppet' Shaoyi has seen?"

Gu Yi was very depressed playing with the "wooden barrel" that could no longer move. Since he was a child, he disassembled radios, alarm clocks, etc., and never had a single one that could be restored. A few parts, or even put them back, there are not many parts, but life and death will not make a sound, and he has been beaten a lot for this matter.

It seemed that this time he couldn't escape from this vicious circle again, but any thing touched by his "devil claws" could never be restored to its original state, but fortunately, no one would beat him up now because he broke something.

With a decisive dry smile, he gave up the plan to make the "barrel" move again, and while answering the question of Master Lance, a few old men restored the "barrel" to its original state: "Have I seen it? I I've seen a lot, and I can't tell in a while..."

It's not clear, but he has had many "puppets" who have made misfortunes since childhood, such as Megatron, Brother Zhuzi, and Robot Dinosaur Grimlock, which ones have not been dismantled by him.

Gu Yi stared at the old men and quickly put the "cask" back. The process was no different from what he had done before, but they could move after putting it on, and he was paralyzed when he touched it.

Obviously, this thing is what Si Xiaonuo said, it can solve the key to [Qingshi collar] labor shortage, Gu Yi even guessed the use of this thing with divine comprehension!
Under the control of master craftsman Lance and other old men, the wooden barrel even performed a show of using its two pliers to nimbly take items from the table and put them back in place. This kind of dexterity is no less than that of Guyi. Industrial robots I have never seen before.

Think about it, if there is a large group of "barrel people" who do not need to be manipulated by humans to replace workers on the production line and perform repetitive mechanical work that does not require judgment and thinking ability, how much labor will [Qingshi Collar] save?
Thinking of that kind of picture, Gu Yi's mind flooded with spiritual thoughts, but Master Lance was nagging at the side, explaining the origin of this "wooden puppet shape" to him, while secretly observing Gu Yi's expression.

"The wooden puppet shape is just an entry-level thing in the art of puppet making in the [Twelve Pavilions of Heaven's Secrets] in the [Yu Dynasty Xia Dynasty]. Create even more sophisticated 'mechanism puppets' and 'mechanical war puppets', I heard that some clever 'machine-made Yanshi' can also create 'big puppet Yanren' who are as indistinguishable from real people..."

Guyi was amazed when he heard that, although he faintly felt that this wilderness was far from being as primitive as he had imagined, but he was able to create a machine man who could be used as a nanny or a servant, and a mechanical soldier who could kill the enemy on the battlefield , is it too exaggerated?

This is a good craft. If I can thoroughly study this technique, my mother will no longer have to worry about the lack of labor for the [blue stone collar]!
