The Great Arcanist Who Traveled Through the World of American Variety Shows.

Chapter 447 Daqin's Industrial Revolution

Richard used the Star Gem to make a flying boat. The capacity of the flying boat is 36,000 tons. Such a flying boat is more than enough to maintain the Great Qin Empire, but if you want to occupy the world, one flying boat seems a little insufficient.

Therefore, he planned to build a few more of these large flying boats.

The craftsmen of the Mohist school have already revered Richard as a god. After all, only gods have the power to make such a huge flying boat fly directly.

That huge boat was built by them themselves, and they knew very well whether it could fly. Although the boat was built very cleverly and could sail on the water, they were sure that it could not fly.

As a result, the flying boat flew up in front of him.

"Master, we would like to ask you, how can this flying boat fly?" The master craftsman respectfully asked Richard.

Richard took out a Star Gemstone and said, "It can fly because of the power of the Star Gemstone."

As he spoke, Richard gently let go of the Star Gem, and the table next to him immediately floated up.

Seeing this amazing scene, everyone's eyes widened, and they were full of curiosity about the Star Gem. Richard handed the Star Gem to the master craftsman and asked him to examine it himself.

A group of Mohist disciples studied the Tianxing Gem carefully. They were too curious about this gem as it completely went against their previous understanding.

But it really appeared before his eyes.

Richard looked at these Mohist masters and suddenly worried that they were being led astray by him. You know, even if it was the human beings with many advanced technologies in the future, they couldn't research anything, and could only know the characteristics of the Star Gem.

Just climb the normal technology tree step by step, don't think about going straight to anti-gravity.

So Richard began to teach these master craftsmen. Let’s put aside the issue of anti-gravity for now and study the problem of boiling water in a kettle first.

If these masters were really asked to study anti-gravity, they would be reaching a dead end.

The masters of the Mohist school of this era had already done a lot of research on the world. The tools they made were extremely ingenious. Li Jue felt that he could give them some guidance.

The Qin Dynasty was now in the Bronze Age and the Iron Age, and the Qin State had almost reached its peak in bronze craftsmanship. The error of the arrows it produced was as small as 0.01 mm.

All arrows were of almost the same standard, a level of standardization that was also the peak of the feudal era and was not surpassed until the later Republican period.

In the Iron Age, they absorbed the technologies of the six kingdoms and their iron technology was also very advanced. After reaching a very high level in these technologies, Richard was ready to teach them mechanical engineering and steam dynamics.

"Anti-gravity can only rely on this kind of star gem. You shouldn't focus on this gem." Richard said with a smile.

"This power is a technology that is beyond our time and we cannot master it now."

"Master, what do you think we should study?" said the master craftsman respectfully.

"Do you see the power of water?" Richard said with a smile. "These water flows here all the time, almost never stopping. Can we use the power of these water flows to do something?"

In the following days, Richard handed these people a blueprint of the hydraulic transmission system for study. These Mohist craftsmen were overjoyed.

Richard also found the First Emperor and told him the importance of these craftsmen. The First Emperor immediately ordered the establishment of the Tiangong Court, with the chief craftsman serving as the chief. His rank was the same as that of the Zhongcheling and the Prime Minister's Office, and he was only responsible to the emperor.

At the same time, craftsmen were also transferred to continue building flying boats. Richard planned to build twelve flying boats first, which could not only be used to transport military logistics supplies, but also as a means of transportation.

Because of the success of the giant flying boat, the remaining flying boats began to be built as soon as possible.

Of course, after Richard built these flying boats, he still had to consider one issue, which was the right to control the flying boats. Once the flying boats were obtained by others, it would also pose a threat.

After all, this kind of flying boat is also controlled by people. If the people of Daqin can control it, then others can naturally control it. So in order to prevent accidents, Richard must take precautions.

So he began to improve the control systems of these flying boats.

If you want to control the flying boat, the best way is naturally the tower spirit system. As long as you build a tower spirit, you can easily control the entire flying boat. This kind of flying boat's control system does not require a very powerful tower spirit. Richard took out a few high-level soul crystals and used them to make a tower spirit.

He could now master the technique of making tower spirits with his eyes closed. Soon Richard made twelve control tower spirits and then installed them on the flying boat.

The control tower spirit will identify the user. Only after the identity is identified can the flying boat be controlled. At the same time, it also controls the passages in various areas of the flying boat. Once a problem occurs, the spacecraft can be shut down immediately. At the same time, the tower spirit has full control over the spacecraft. Richard set several permissions on the tower spirit. The highest authority is naturally his, and then it is divided into five levels of authority. The highest is level one and the lowest is level five.

Level five authority means only having the most basic driving rights, and only the right to drive at specified times, on specified routes, and in specified areas. Once you exceed the area, your driving rights will be immediately revoked.

The fourth level of authority is higher, but also limited, and the area that can be flown is wider. The third level of authority has a little more freedom and can adjust some flight areas and trajectories.

The second-level authority has a higher degree of freedom, but there are still many areas that are off-limits, and there are also many restrictions.

There is almost no restriction on first-class authority. So far, only Ying Zheng has this authority, and this authority can be inherited. The person who inherits it will naturally be the next emperor.

With these powers, there is no need to worry about the imperial army rebelling and using airships to directly attack Xianyang.

After Richard set up the permissions, he began to check how the Mohist craftsmen were doing.

By the time Richard arrived here, the Mohists had already gained a lot of knowledge about hydraulic transmission. They had conducted a lot of practice on the hydraulic transmission system and had researched a lot of things.

Richard soon saw the hydraulic mill, hydraulic forge, and giant waterwheel irrigation system.

These craftsmen even built a "water-conservancy air-conditioning room". The principle is also very simple, using the power of water flow to drive the waterwheel, pumping water to a high place, and then letting the water flow down from the roof along a specific channel.

At the same time, as the water flows down, it can also drive the water wheel, causing the transmission system connected to the water wheel to rotate, driving the fan to rotate.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

That's right, this house is first cooled down by water flow, and then the water flow drives the fan to blow air. The whole process does not require any manpower, and there will always be a cool breeze blowing in the room.

The overall cooling effect is definitely not as good as air conditioning, but in this era, it is very good.

The palace of the First Emperor had already been equipped with such a device, which could run day and night as long as there was water flow. At the same time, ice cubes could be added to the system for better results.

Richard was very surprised when he saw the complex transmission system made by the Mohist craftsmen. He did not expect that they could master these mechanical theories and achieve such a level in just over a month.

After seeing this, Richard once again pointed out another research direction for these master craftsmen: hydraulic lathes.

Yes, hydraulic lathe. Lathe sounds like it should be a modern product, but in fact it has existed for a long time, and the earliest lathes were completely driven by manpower.

The hydraulic lathe just needs to change some ideas.

Of course, hydraulic lathes cannot be built very advanced. In fact, these hydraulic lathes are very simple and can only perform some simple mechanical operations. But even so, it is a huge progress.

The emergence of lathes can increase the efficiency of Daqin's various industrial productions several times, while also making them more precise and standardized.

Of course, there are many problems with hydraulic lathes, such as the transmission speed cannot always be stable, the problem of reduced water sources, etc.

Although the Mohist craftsmen found many methods, many problems still could not be solved, because many of these problems were essential problems of hydraulic lathes.

After seeing that the Mohists had mastered this knowledge, Richard started to study steam dynamics. The most basic theory of steam dynamics is boiling water.

The kettle is boiling on the fire, and the force of the hot steam pushes the kettle lid. This seemingly ordinary force is an important foundation for promoting the development of productivity in human society.

Even in the future, when humans can enter space, the way they obtain and utilize energy is still to boil water, but boiling water has become more efficient.

Richard told the Mohist craftsmen about the problem of boiling water, and then asked them to find a way to utilize the power of boiling water.

Soon, these Mohist craftsmen began to use boiling water to make a simple water wheel, and use the steam from the boiling water to drive the water wheel. This is the simplest operation of steam power.

Richard did not interfere with these people's research. He could indeed help, but without his help, those craftsmen would not be able to go far without complete basic knowledge.

The best way is to let them explore little by little, and Richard is responsible for guiding them. Only after the basic knowledge is solid can these things continue to improve and develop.

Richard was looking forward to seeing what level these craftsmen could eventually take Daqin to. He wondered if they could invent a usable steam engine in this era.

As for the materials for the steam engine and rubber, there is no need to worry about that. With the flying boat, we can find them all over the world.
