Development of productivity started in 1981

Chapter 55 Base Construction III (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets)
Wang Jiankun got up late on Sunday morning because he had done some particularly strenuous precision manufacturing the night before, and then did testing and adjustments until midnight. When he woke up in the morning, he was forced back into bed by the cold air, so he took another bleary-eyed nap.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already past 9 in the morning and the autumn sun was already high in the sky.

To be honest, I haven’t slept in for a long time since I had the adventure. It felt really good to suddenly have a sleep in, and I felt like all the fatigue in my body disappeared.

He stood in the yard and stretched, then tested the projection range of his superpowers and found that he could now project objects within 85 meters, which was 5 meters more than a few days ago.

It’s impossible to buy breakfast at this time. Today at noon, my junior high school classmates will come over for a meal, so Wang Jiankun decided to go to the Dongmen Market to buy some meat.

I went to the market and bought a pound of fried dough twists and ate a few to fill my stomach.

When I arrived at the butcher's shop, there was no good meat left, but there were two big fat pig's trotters. After thinking for a while, I bought the two pig's trotters, then went to the grain shop to buy some soybeans, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some rock sugar.

Wang Jiankun plans to eat pork trotters stewed with soybeans for lunch today. This is the most nutritious food in this weather.

The butcher had already chopped the pig's feet into small pieces with a boning knife, but there were still some hairs on them that had not been scraped off. He was afraid that the classmates would not be able to handle it properly, so he used his superpowers to remove the hairs by the roots.

At 10 o'clock, five classmates came together. They also slept in, and then washed clothes and dried quilts until now.

After they arrived, Cheng Ming, who was a little better at cooking, was asked to cook braised pork feet with soybeans. The rice had to be stewed in an iron pot only after the pork feet were stewed in the ceramic pot.

While cooking, Wang Jiankun handed the study materials of Fang Guihua and the other two to them, and then explained the parts that they had not mastered well.

The others took turns practicing typing on the computer and began to imitate programming.

Among them, Lang Junjian mastered the fastest and his typing speed was also faster than others. He said that he drew a keyboard with paper and when he was tired of studying, he would take it out to simulate typing to change his mind.

Wang Jiankun thought this method was good and asked others to learn it as well. Otherwise, if they only did it once a week, it would be difficult to form muscle memory for typing.

Seeing that Lang Junjian had mastered programming, Wang Jiankun decided to publish a programming book and give it to him for him to learn.

Currently, the underlying patents for computers are all from Europe and the United States. China has just started to get in touch with them, and not many people even understand patents.

Therefore, he planned to first focus on European and American computer software and hardware systems, do some in-depth development on their basis, and gradually establish an independent system.

The pig's feet in the clay pot gave off a strong aroma under the fierce attack of the fire. In order to make it taste better, everyone waited until it had been stewed for 1 and a half hours before turning off the high heat and letting the charcoal fire simmer slowly for another half an hour.

When the lid was opened, the aroma that gushed out filled the whole yard with the scent of pig's feet and soybeans, and the neighbor's children were so greedy that they cried.

The pig's trotter was divided equally among everyone, and soybeans were added according to individual appetite. The lunch was a very delicious one.

After eating, Wang Jiankun used cheating methods as usual to avoid washing the pot.

After washing his lunch box, he was about to take a rest when the postman brought him a letter from Raozhou Post and Telecommunications Bureau. Wang Jiankun knew that it was his report card.

I took the letter and opened it, and it was indeed true. It said the score was 99 points. If you have any objections, please go to Raozhou Post and Telecommunications Bureau for verification.

I don't know how that 1 point was deducted. There is no need to review if you are 1 point away from full marks. As long as you reach 60 points, you can get an amateur radio license.

Calculating the time, it is exactly the time for the holiday after the exams. I should not be in the county at that time, so I will ask Ye Wei and his wife to help collect it for me.

At 1:4 p.m., Wang Jiankun went to a gas station and used a two-wheeled vehicle to pull four oil tankers, each capable of holding 1 kilograms, to fill up with diesel.

Some time ago, the squad leader often rode this motorcycle to refuel. This time, when he saw Wang Jiankun riding this motorcycle to refuel diesel, he briefly asked about the situation.

Wang Jiankun made up an excuse that he was going to learn truck driving and wanted to prepare the diesel first. The staff did not say much and filled it up as usual.

After refueling, we went to the underground base. These 4 kilograms of diesel can generate about 2 kilowatt-hours of electricity, which can fully charge the battery pack 10 times.

Transport all the oil to the 4th underground floor of the base, then connect the diesel engine's oil pipe to one of the oil tanks, turn on the generator to generate electricity and charge the battery pack.

Wang Jiankun designed the electricity usage method in this way: conventional electricity is output through the battery pack, which is more stable and energy-saving, and does not require the diesel engine to be started frequently.

When the battery power drops to 20%, the diesel engine will automatically start to charge the battery pack, and the diesel engine will automatically stop when the battery is fully charged.

When a device with particularly high power consumption is to be tested, the diesel engine is manually turned on to power the device.

When the diesel engine started to charge the battery, Wang Jiankun used his superpowers to excavate the space on the third floor.

Because there is no need for precise control, only the same elements need to be brought together to form a single substance, so the excavation speed is very fast and less energy is consumed.

Now Wang Jiankun has tried his best not to waste resources. No matter what metal or non-metal element it is, he tries to make use of it as much as possible. Those that are not needed temporarily are collected and placed in the underground base, which will definitely be used in the future.

Wang Jiankun now understands why Zhizi said that advanced civilizations will try their best to occupy resources, because their utilization rate of elements is unimaginable for lower civilizations.

At present, Wang Jiankun can only classify matter according to the types of elements. Advanced civilizations may be able to distinguish and utilize matter according to elementary particles or even smaller scales.

After using up 150 cubic meters of the ability to mobilize elements, I found that it can still be used. This shows that as the projection distance increases or my own mental strength increases, the ability to mobilize elements will also increase.

Previously, there was no electricity or lights installed on the third floor, but now we can use our superpowers to lay some circuits and lights in the excavated space.

Just do it as soon as you think of it. Connect the lighting line from the 4th floor to the 3rd floor, and install lighting, switches, sockets, fuses, etc. in the more than 90 square meters that have been excavated.

Then we took the elevator to the third floor. The overall style was the same minimalist as the fourth floor. The ground was hardened with cement and the ceiling was fixed with steel mesh and iron plates. The excavated part was fan-shaped and the arc part was also paved with a thin layer of aluminum-magnesium alloy.

按照层高5米，每天开挖150立方就是占地30平方的空间，还需要9天才可以把第3层挖出来。

By then, we will build an equipment laboratory on the 3rd floor, and make the equipment that will be handed over to Fengshan Commune to make springs, and test it here a few times.

The commune is already building a factory according to the drawings provided by Wang Jiankun. The factory is 10 meters wide, 20 meters long, and covers an area of ​​more than 200 square meters. The equipment inside will be arranged in a linear manner.

Raw materials such as pig iron, manganese particles, smelting auxiliary materials, etc. are sent into the electric furnace from one end of the factory. The smelted manganese steel enters the hot drawing equipment to be made into steel wire. The steel wire is then sent to the spring winding mechanism to make springs, and then enters the carburizing and tempering equipment, and finally is sorted and packaged.

Because it is currently planned according to one line, we only need to build one building. If we need to add more in the future, we can build a few more buildings in the reserved space.

The commune has a brick kiln, so it is convenient to buy cement, and there is no shortage of wood, labor, etc., so the factory building can be built quickly.

The day before yesterday, when my father arrived in the county town, he told me about the construction of the commune's factory building. The foundation had been laid a few days ago, and the walls would be built in two or three days. In more than 20 days, the roof would be covered with tiles, so the equipment would start to be manufactured and tested one by one next week.

It stayed in the underground base until the battery pack was fully charged, the diesel engine stopped automatically, and it returned to the ground after checking that the oil and electrical circuits were safe.

It was already past 4 p.m., and after returning to the recycling station, Fang Guihua and his friends went back to school.

Wang Jiankun took this opportunity to transport two loads of metal to the base, and then transported two trucks of a total of 3 pieces of clock glass from the base to the recycling station. He marked them and sent a message to his father asking him to take them home when he passed by the county town tomorrow.

This month, the output of Master Quan's clock factory increased again. He bought 8 more grinders from Raozhou and asked Wang Jiankun to help process 3 sets of molds for casting wax models.

So if Master Quan's table clock workshop is fully operational now, it can produce 200 sets of parts a day, and about 6 table clocks a month.

Currently, Hu Xiyang helps Master Quan transport a truckload of more than 800 table clocks to Raozhou every week. After the two trucks in the team were delivered last week, he can be said to have found another stable customer.

At present, Wang Liping can drive alone, but the freight volume is not that large at present, so two vehicles are sent out together each time, and one is reserved for driver training in the team.

This time, Wang Jiankun suggested that his father should undergo intensive training, which required not only the ability to drive, but also the ability to master basic fault diagnosis and parts replacement skills.

Although Wang Jiankun used his super powers to repair and reinforce the two vehicles he retrieved last week, they would still break down after being driven for a long time. In addition, a transportation channel to the north needs to be opened up in the future, so long journeys are inevitable.

Moreover, Wang Jiankun used Zhizi's help to write a troubleshooting manual and a maintenance and replacement manual. With only three months of intensive training, he should be able to drive on the road independently.

Wang Jiankun also made a batch of commonly used and easily damaged spare parts for his father to take back to the team.

The team selected six smart, nimble and good-natured young men. Every day they had to practice driving for one hour, study the maintenance manual for two hours, train on parts replacement for one hour, and learn troubleshooting for one hour. The 6-hour day was fully scheduled.

Troubleshooting Wang Jiankun gave Dong Zhenjun a booklet and taught him how to set up faults, clearly listing which faults were caused by which parts abnormalities, etc.

Then he was asked to set it up manually, and the six apprentices in the team were asked to judge and repair it.

Wang Liping and her father also have to attend vehicle maintenance training on days when they are not driving. In the future, if they want to travel far to Jiujiang, they must be able to troubleshoot. According to Wang Jiankun's plan, they will take a trip along the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal by the end of this year to transport a batch of goods to Jiangsu Province for trial sales.

Ask my father to make friends with Dolala, the owner of a restaurant in Yangzhou, and ask him to help me find a place to stay there.

Recently, my father would go to Yangzhou Restaurant for lunch at noon when he went to Dexing to transport goods. He became somewhat familiar with the owner and will wait and see before making any requests.

It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work. Du Weiqiao knows the bosses in Jiangsu Province who make copper wedding products, and he will help them find a place to stay.

------

On October 10th, a new week began. After today's and tomorrow's classes, we will have the midterm exam.

Wang Jiankun still went to the morning reading as usual, but he didn't go to the evening self-study class in the evening. In addition to the routine digging of the base, he also had to make spring production equipment.

First, we need to build an electric furnace. Based on a daily production capacity of 2 springs and the weight of each spring being 4 grams, the furnace should be able to smelt more than 80 kilograms of iron each time. In addition to slag, loss, redundancy, etc., the furnace should be able to hold 100 kilograms of material each time.

Because they are all high-density, the furnace chamber does not need to be very large, only 0.015 cubic meters, which is about the size of a motorcycle mailbox.

However, the attached road walls, heaters, bases and other parts combined together still form a device that occupies an area of ​​1.5 square meters and is 2 meters high.

Taking into account the cultural level and work ability of the commune workers, Wang Jiankun tried to make the equipment as simple to operate as possible, so he used some intelligent control technologies.

For example, the feeding system has a weighing platform. Workers put in materials in a fixed amount. Only when the weight is exactly the required value can they open the furnace door and press the switch to feed the materials. Putting in more or less is not allowed, so feeding errors are avoided to the greatest extent.

Temperature control is also a fool-proof operation. After the feeding is completed, you can press the start switch and the equipment will heat according to the set heating speed. The worker only needs to ensure that the next step is taken in time when the equipment alarm is sounded or the heating is completed.

At present, the automatic control program and hardware are all based on the 8008 chip. It is a bit too late to develop a new set by myself, so it would be nice to use the ready-made ones.

However, the display screen and the control chip and circuit therein are brand new, and the screen is still based on the TFT black and white screen of an electronic watch.

Just because Wang Jiankun is able to design and manufacture chips and corresponding hardware with faster computing speeds, the content that can be displayed has been greatly increased.

So this device has a sophisticated automatic control system and a high-end-looking 6*8 cm TET screen.

After completing the manufacturing on the third floor of the base on Monday night, Wang Jiankun powered on the machine for a test and the results were very good, with the entire process being a fool-proof operation.

According to the SOP process and the signs and text prompts on the screen, put the pig iron ingots, manganese metal and slag-making materials on the weighing machine in order, then pour them into the furnace cavity and close the furnace door. Then press the start button and the equipment will start working automatically.

After about 4 hours, the molten steel was ready.

Because the rolling equipment had not yet been manufactured, the test batch of molten steel was poured into a cooling pool prepared in advance to cool naturally.

Then Wang Jiankun used his super powers to decompose it and restore it to the state it was in when the materials were first added, and planned to debug it again after the rolling equipment was built on Tuesday night.

As usual, we started excavating the third layer on Tuesday night. After the walls and the ground were dug and processed, the third layer was half completed and formed a semicircle.

Then the rolling equipment was synthesized using superpowers, with the front end being the cooling and preliminary forming equipment.

The electric furnace was already smelting molten iron. After waiting for more than two hours, the machine's prompt light and sound rang when the molten steel was ready.

Wang Jiankun turned off the heating power, opened the electric furnace door, and used special transfer equipment to transfer the molten steel to the feed inlet of the rolling production line.

The molten steel is slightly cooled here to a semi-solidified state, but is still red hot and is pressed into thicker round bars by the preliminary forming device.

The red-hot round rods are then rolled into 3 mm diameter steel rods by a rough rolling mill, and then rolled into 0.2 mm thin wires by a finishing rolling mill. After passing through a cooling water tank, they are wound onto a wooden shaft.

The entire rolling equipment requires three people to look after it. One person is needed to look after the feeding and rough rolling, one person is needed to look after the finishing rolling and cooling in the middle, and finally one person is needed to look after the winding.

The whole operation is quite simple, because Zhizi has carried out many simulations. According to Wang Jiankun's requirements, as long as one has normal intelligence and nimble hands and feet, he or she can start working after a little training.

Wang Jiankun also watched Zhizi's simulation images several times before starting the experiment. Finally, he succeeded in one try and the elastic filaments he produced met the design requirements.

将缠绕好钢丝的5个木轴轴取下放到半成品仓位，其中4个木轴上都是20公斤重的钢丝，有1个是8公斤左右。

After the spring winding machine and carburizing and tempering equipment are manufactured tomorrow night, the performance of the spring will be tested. If there are no problems, the commune's spring manufacturing production line will be completed.

Because I had an exam the next day, I was afraid that my lack of energy would affect my performance and it would not be great if I didn't get full marks, so I checked the water and electricity equipment at the base and went back to my room to sleep.

Because it was a midterm exam, three grades took the exam together, and were arranged in order of their grades. Although there were still two people at a table, people from different grades sat together, so it was much more difficult for those who wanted to cheat.

Sitting at the same table with Wang Jiankun for the exam was a girl named Zheng Qian, who ranked first in the liberal arts class in her second year of high school. She had short hair, very fair skin, and a round face. When she looked at people, her eyes were slightly tilted up, as if she was smiling.

Seeing Wang Jiankun sitting next to her, she greeted him with "Hello!". Wang Jiankun replied with "Hello!" and then he was at a loss for words. The construction of the underground base and production equipment has been strengthening his rational thinking in recent times, causing his emotional intelligence to decline a lot recently. He couldn't find a suitable topic to talk more.

The two of them sat there in silence, waiting for the exam to begin, which was a little awkward.

The first exam was in Chinese, which was Zheng Qian's strong point as she studied liberal arts, so she answered the questions very quickly. Wang Jiankun was not weak either, answering the questions even faster than Zheng Qian, but his handwriting was average.

He had no conditions to practice calligraphy before, and after the encounter, he often used his superpowers directly, so he had no time to practice more. So he looked at Zheng Qian's beautiful handwriting next to him, and then looked at his own. Although each character was relatively square, it looked very ordinary as a whole. No wonder he always lost a few points on his composition.

There was still an hour left before the end of the exam when I finished writing the composition. I carefully checked to see if there were any typos or if I had written too quickly and in the wrong place. After confirming that everything was correct, I began to daydream.

After taking a few glances at Zheng Qian's test paper, which she was also checking at this time, Wang Jiankun saw that she had made mistakes in the explanation of the classical Chinese text. She wanted to remind her but felt it was not a good idea. She spent the rest of the test time in confusion, and in the end, she did not say much.

The two chatted for a while before the math test in the afternoon. Wang Jiankun learned that Zheng Qian went to Dexing Copper Mine Middle School for junior high school and was admitted to the No. 2 Middle School in the county for high school. Because her grades in math and other science subjects were average, she chose liberal arts, which was why she ranked first in the grade several times.

Wang Jiankun talked to her about Dexing Copper Mine. She was also quite talkative and told him a lot about the copper mine. When she spoke, her eyes were smiling, she had two dimples, and her voice was soft and very pleasant.

So before the exam started, Wang Jiankun couldn't help but tell her that there was a mistake in the translation of a classical Chinese text on her Chinese test paper. Zheng Qian glared at him and said, "You knew it before but didn't tell me. Now that we have a math test, you're messing with my mood. If I don't get first place this time, you have to compensate me!"

"I haven't met you before, I'm sorry to remind you during the exam. If I hadn't gotten along well with you just now, I wouldn't have said it."

"You think you're right. What do you think we should do?" Zheng Qian said to Wang Jiankun with a fierce look.

Seeing that her voice was still very nice when she was angry, and the way she tried to look angry was also quite cute, so she said: "My math grades are OK. If you trust me, I will help you check if there are any mistakes after you finish writing and checking. If there are any, I can give you some advice."

"Really? Aren't you a freshman in high school? I'm a sophomore. Don't brag."

"It couldn't be more true. I always got full marks in math and I taught myself all the math for high school. If I wasn't too young and afraid of being bullied in college, I would have wanted to take the college entrance exam next year."

"I'll trust you for once. This isn't the college entrance exam anyway. I usually score around 150 out of 130 on math papers. If you point that out and instruct me to change it so that it's lower than 130, you'd better think about how to face my anger."

"Okay, I promise, you can get full marks if you want."

"Don't brag. Wait until I'm done checking before you point out the mistakes."

The two spoke the following part of the conversation quietly. After all, it was considered cheating and participating in cheating, and it would be bad if others knew about it.

When taking the math test, Wang Jiankun finished faster and only took one hour to finish. Then he watched Zheng Qian answer the questions. Because their deskmates were from different grades, the teacher didn't care, but strictly forbade them to whisper or look around.

Zheng Qian took two hours to finish answering and check her answers. Wang Jiankun saw clearly from the side that she got 132 points. She lost 6 points for one multiple-choice question she got wrong, 4 points for one fill-in-the-blank question she got wrong, and Zheng Qian wrote the last question of the last big question randomly.

So he pointed out the mistakes in all three questions to her. Zheng Qian checked and recalculated and got them right. For the last question, Wang Jiankun knew that it would be impossible for her to finish it in the last 10 minutes with her level, so he wrote down the correct answer for her and let her choose whether to copy it or not.

After looking at Wang Jiankun's answer, Zheng Qian's pale face was conflicted for a while but finally she changed it according to Wang Jiankun's answer. The exam bell rang. Zheng Qian looked at Wang Jiankun for a while, said goodbye to him with a smile and left.

It’s inexplicable. Girls are really hard to understand, Wang Jiankun thought.

Wang Jiankun had a chemistry exam in the afternoon, and the second year of high school had already been divided into liberal arts and science according to the college entrance examination model, so Zheng Qian said goodbye in advance.

Without Zheng Qian by his side, Wang Jiankun handed in his chemistry exam early and left. In the evening, he had to go to build an underground base and manufacture equipment for producing springs as usual.
