survival in the wilderness

There are intermediary services in the city that specialize in hiring people, and Lin Yan went to find someone the next day.

On the same day, I found a couple with two children. The family came from other places. In order to support the two children to go to school, the couple went out to work when they were free.

After Lin Yan inspected it, he thought it was good, and so did Hua Hong, so he left the family behind.It is required that one of the couples must live at home often to take care of the bonus.

After the family affairs were resolved, Lin Yan's hidden worries dissipated, and she focused more on work.

In September, the Union Monthly published a news that the bicycle factory had launched [-] bicycles, and the excited people were moved by the news.

Three years ago, bicycles were a hit and everyone wanted them.Although it is not available for purchase, it is often mentioned from time to time, and people who are greedy are staring at the samples of the research institute.

After waiting for three years, the bicycle finally came out.

As soon as the news came out, the bicycle factory was surrounded by people.

Lin Yan had inquired about it, and the price of a bicycle starts at three yuan, which is in short supply.

There were too many people who wanted to buy it, so they robbed and raised the price, even reaching [-] yuan a car.

The sensational scene caused by the first batch of bicycles made many merchants jealous, but the bicycle factory was directly managed by the scientific research institute and had no plans to sell the technology.

Lin Yan also owns one. Cycling to and from get off work has become a new trend in Sun City.

In the next month, there was an endless stream of people who came to the Arbitration Court to report the situation. There were too many people who wanted bicycles, but they couldn't produce them.

The busiest one was Lu Zheng, the person in charge of the bicycle factory. Ever since Ye Cong asked him to secretly build the factory, he was under tremendous pressure. It took him three years to make the first batch of finished products. Before he could catch his breath, troubles followed one after another.

In the past few years, he was often urged by the scientific research institute, so he had to desperately speed up the process, and finally determined the processing process, solved all the problems, and successfully produced a qualified finished product.

I thought everything would be fine, and I was just waiting to make money, but I didn't expect to be urged every day and have to work overtime.

The bicycle factory has invested heavily, and the monthly output is only 150 at most. It is too difficult to meet everyone's needs.

Really unable to withstand the pressure, Lu Zheng waited anxiously in the reception room of the scientific research institute.

This year, the dean of scientific research was replaced by Shi Zhi, who was not as easy to deal with as Ye Cong. Every time he came to find someone for something, Lu Zheng felt a little flustered.

Shi Zhi is notoriously not to be messed with, and no one wants to come to him for nothing. He has no choice but to make the bicycle factory unlike other factories, which are completely under the management of the scientific research institute.

At that time, someone bought technology at a high price to start a bicycle factory, but the research institute never let go, holding the technology firmly in its hands.It is also because the investment in scientific research is too large and the finances cannot support it, so I can only find ways to make money by myself.

The bicycle factory is a profitable tool that the scientific research institute is optimistic about. Once it makes a profit, except for paying taxes, all the profits will be invested in technology research and development.

Lu Zheng's pressure can be imagined with the gold-swallowing beast of the scientific research institute waiting with his mouth open all day long.Originally, it was difficult enough with Ye Cong here, but who would have thought of replacing Shi Zhi, which would make him even more dizzy.

"What do you want from me?"

Hearing Shi Zhi's voice, Lu Zheng snapped back to his senses, caught a glimpse of his unhappy face, and became even more nervous for a moment, "I found that there are too many people in the factory, and we can't supply the goods."

Ever since he was transferred back from Tianduan Mountain, Shi Zhi seldom showed up, and he concentrated on being in the laboratory, most impatient to deal with these matters.He said directly: "You can figure it out."

"I, I don't know what to do." Lu Zheng was really about to cry, "The first batch of bicycles were launched and sold out in three days. Passers-by have surrounded the factory gate these days, and the factory can make less than one month at most. Two hundred cars are far from enough. You are so smart, you must have a way."

Stared at by Lu Zheng's expectant eyes, Shi Zhi said patiently, "Tell me about the current production process in the factory."

The output cannot be supplied, as long as the key problems are found and solved.As far as he knows, a bicycle is assembled from multiple parts, and the parts that are stuck should be the manufacture of chains and gears.

The factory established by Lu Zheng couldn't be more clear about all the processes, so he immediately explained the current production mode.

After listening, Shi Zhi looked at him like a fool, Lu Zheng felt a little bit in his heart, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Shi Zhi's appearance made him very uncertain, as if he had made a big mistake.

"All parts are made in-house. Are you stupid?"

"You can't leak the technology of bicycles, but you can't do it yourself? I always find reliable people to do it to make sure everything is foolproof." Lu Zheng looked sincere. He felt that this was what he should do. Only when the technology is in his own hands would he feel at ease.

Shi Zhi took a deep breath, he really didn't want to talk to a fool, but he thought that he was the dean anyway, and he could do more research with the money he made from the bicycle.He said: "There are so many metal processing factories in the city, you just need to control the key components in your hands, and those conventional parts are handed over to other factories, and cooperation can improve efficiency."

Lu Zheng: "... Is this really possible?"

Shi Zhi: "..."

Before Shi Zhi was about to explode, Lu Zheng slipped away resolutely, he seemed really stupid.

When Lin Yan passed by, he was stunned when he saw Shi Zhi, "It's really rare, you are in a daze."

Shi Zhi came back to his senses and didn't want to talk to her. He was just thinking, did Ye Cong supervise the construction of the bicycle factory before, so he didn't go to see the situation in the factory.

Lin Yan hurriedly said: "Don't go, tell me what's wrong, who did you see just now?"

Looking at him like this, it should be unpleasant to meet people.She came to the scientific research institute today and was planning to ask him to learn about several recent research projects.

"Lu Zheng, from the bicycle factory, so stupid."

Hearing his bad tone, Lin Yan rolled his eyes, "Recently, bicycles are on fire, and there are too many people wanting to buy them. The supply exceeds the demand. Why is Lu Zheng looking for you?"

"Find a way to increase production." Shi Zhi recounted what he had just learned, "Division of labor and cooperation is very common in other factories, why is Lu Zheng so stubborn."

Lin Yan spread his hands, "How do I know, this person was selected by the Academy of Sciences. It's not too stupid to come to you on my own initiative, and there is still time to change it now."

"I'm still worried. I'll go to the factory tomorrow to have a look." Shi Zhi is a man of action, and he also wants the bicycle factory to make money quickly.

Lin Yan was noncommittal, and talked about the purpose of coming here, "How is your power generation project doing, and where is it?"

She doesn't expect to popularize it, as long as it can be applied to the manufacture of some equipment.

But just like that, it is also very difficult.The power generation is going well, but I want to store it for my own use, but there has been no progress, which is very worrying.

Shi Zhi: "Let's go, let's go to the laboratory. I read the books you took out carefully. With our current conditions, we have to wait to make a battery. The Institute of Materials has been working hard to separate the various materials over the years. A chemical substance, and a breakthrough can only be made after mastering the various methods of manufacturing the required substances.”

"Hey, I understand what you're saying. If we can't make a battery, how about we just use a generator?"

"I think so too. I have improved the generator several times. Although it can generate electricity, it is not stable enough and poses a great safety risk. Electricity is too dangerous. If someone is accidentally electrocuted, the consequences will be unpredictable."

The two walked and talked all the way, and arrived at Shi Zhi's laboratory, which was full of things.

Lin Yan had a flash of inspiration for the copper wires and iron wires of different thicknesses, "How is Baichen's research on rubber? These coils are too dangerous to conduct electricity. It's better to wrap them with insulating rubber. I remember telling you. , why didn't you do it?"

Shi Zhi gave her a white look, "If you hadn't asked me to go to Tianduan Mountain, I wouldn't have dragged it until now."

Lin Yancan smiled, "It's my fault. The safety of the wires is very important, so you can't be careless." She was really afraid that Shi Zhi, who was so bold, would electrocute herself to death one day.

"Put your eyes away, it's too obvious." Shi Zhi pulled out a big iron bump from a pile of things, and shook his hand quickly, "Look at the pointer watch over there, if there is a current passing through the pointer, it will display."

Lin Yan stared at it for a long time before seeing the pointer swing, and gave a thumbs up, "Yes, success is not far away."

"However, it would be more obvious if there were a light bulb."

Shi Zhi: "Then you made the light bulb. Don't just talk about it. I'm not talking about you. Over the years, your mind has been on the development of the alliance. Since you know everything, why don't you start researching it? Lightbulbs made."

He carefully studied all the books that Lin Yan took out. He was no stranger to light bulbs and understood them theoretically, but he had never made a real object and was very anxious.

Among them, only Lin Yan has extensive knowledge. If she can devote herself to research, she will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Lin Yan curled his lips, "You think I don't want to, it's not that I'm incapable of doing my best, and there are a lot of things waiting for me in the alliance."

"There are priorities. In your heart, scientific research is not important. In the past few years, you have to rest and recuperate. It is just right for you to focus on scientific research."

"let me consider it."

It's not that Lin Yan didn't think about it. She has tried her best to move out all the books that can be used in the science and technology museum.

The theoretical knowledge reserve of the scientific research institute is absolutely sufficient, but the practical foundation is too poor, and many things can only be thought about.If you want to develop rapidly, you still need to pay more attention to the progress of basic research.

If the foundation cannot keep up, everything is a castle in the air.

A few days later, Lin Yan called Shui Sheng, Huang Ying and Shi Yong for a meeting.

Shui Sheng and Huang Ying arrived first and looked at each other, neither knowing what Lin Yan wanted to do.

Shi Yong came later, "Today is the arbitrator's meeting, and Lan Yue is not here. Do you know what Lin Yan wants to do?"

Shi Yong was surprised and delighted to be elected as the arbitrator.He is about the same age as Heitu, and he has been working hard for so many years, remembering that everything today is hard-won, and wants to hold on.

Under his management, the Ministry of Public Security has strict discipline, enforces the law impartially, and never favors others.

Being in a high position can do more.Shi Yong cherishes this opportunity very much. Since he took office, he dare not be careless and strictly demands himself.

Seeing that both Shuisheng and Huang Ying shook their heads, he asked in surprise, "You don't know? What happened recently?"

It is definitely no small matter to bring them all together.

Before the three of them started guessing, Lin Yan arrived. "Don't guess, I came to you today because I want to adjust the work schedule."

"What arrangement?" Huang Ying asked, they just met yesterday, why haven't they heard of it.

"In the next five years, the alliance should rest and recuperate, vigorously develop industry, commerce and agriculture, and should not expand outward."

Shui Sheng: "We all know this, do you have a new idea?"

Being stared at by several people, Lin Yan blinked, and said a little uncomfortable: "I know it's not good to make temporary changes, but I don't want to waste time, so I have to make some adjustments."

Huang Ying raised her eyebrows, with a half-smile, "Say it straight. Could it be that you want to go to Tianduan Mountain?"

"No." Lin Yan hurriedly denied, "Tianduan Mountain has Lanyue as the township, and I didn't have much use in the past. I want to use my energy on the scientific research institute. Some research is very important, and it is related to the future and every aspect of the alliance. , Once successful, there will be huge changes in all walks of life.”

"Tell me in detail." Shi Yong seemed to understand, "Scientific research institutes are very important, and every new thing launched can cause a sensation."

He knows nothing about research, he only knows that the good things produced by the scientific research institute are really good.Nowadays, all kinds of equipment in the city are constantly improving, which greatly facilitates daily life.

Take farming as an example. The plow for farming has been improved many times, which is much more trouble-free than the first one.Otherwise, there will be more and more fields, how can they be planted.

Food is fundamental, and it has always been the top priority these years. The introduction of various agricultural equipment has brought convenience to too many people.

Lin Yan explained her plan. The point is that she will be stationed in the Academy of Sciences, and the work of the Arbitration Court needs to be shared by the three of them.

"You have all used the recent bicycles. Is it very convenient to travel? You can go wherever you want. The speed is faster, and it is more convenient and trouble-free than riding a horse. When my research progresses, I will be able to create a faster car. , replacing horse-drawn carts and ox-carts, etc., will definitely benefit everyone.”

Lin Yan looked at the three of them hesitantly, and began to draw big cakes, "Believe me, as long as the research on electric energy makes progress, it will be a qualitative leap. Electric lights and telephones are no problem. At that time, even if they are separated by thousands of miles, You can also hear each other’s voices and be in touch anytime.”

Listening to the beautiful future outlined by Lin Yan, the expressions of several people moved slightly. They couldn't imagine what kind of scene it would be like.

Shui Sheng: "Is it really possible?"

"Of course." Lin Yan said firmly, "Ten years ago, there were no oil tankers, chain saws, etc., and now there are not all of them. As long as you dare to think, there is nothing you can't do."

Huang Ying: "Can all the books described in the research institute be realized?"

One day she went to the scientific research institute to find someone to do something, and accidentally saw a book, which said that electric lights can be brightly lit at night, with bright neon lights.

She couldn't imagine such a beautiful scenery.

Lin Yan: "Those books are real. We just can't do it for the time being, and we will definitely be able to realize it in the future. But when we can see it, everyone needs to work hard."

Shui Sheng and Huang Ying asked many more questions, and discussed with Lin Yan the drastic changes brought about by electric energy.

Shi Yong looked at this and then that, he really didn't understand, but he also understood that what Lin Yan was going to do was very important.

Her time and energy are limited, so she has to make trade-offs.

Seeing that the three of them had finished speaking, he directly expressed his position: "Lin Yan, you can do whatever you want, if there is anything you need me to do, just tell me, I will never refuse."

Shui Sheng and Huang Ying looked at each other, come on, when Shi Yong said this, they couldn't be vague.

After the discussion between the four of them, Lin Yan went to the scientific research institute the next day.
