Chapter 495: The Great Explosion of Science and Technology
"Mayor, the output of the Heart of Wisdom is close to stability now. We have roughly tested the maturity stage. From one seedling to maturity, it takes three months and ten days. The most recent batch of 53 will be harvested in about ten days." A person in charge of the production base of Wisdom Trees stood next to Luo Yuan and said diligently.
"I have planted a few now!" Luo Yuan asked.
"267 pieces, this is already the maximum, and at high speed, the maturity period will be extended."
Although there are fewer 267 wisdom trees, these wisdom trees are all eighth-level plants. In addition, their own particularity has a much greater demand for active energy than ordinary eighth-level creatures. It can make 267 wisdom trees mature in about three months, and the active energy they produce is already quite amazing.
Luo Yuan nodded without comment and quickly walked towards the heavily guarded building in front of him, and a group of people hurriedly followed closely.
Since the discovery that the active energy generated by the energy core is effective for the growth of the wisdom tree.
Luo Yuan immediately expanded the scale of smart tree planting, and for this reason he specially used an idle building to modify and reinforce it.
Compared with some mutant plants, mature wisdom trees are naturally quite short, but they are also dozens of meters high. With a floor height of about three meters, it cannot support its normal growth at all. Fortunately, the building is basically modularly built, simple to build and dismantle is equally easy.
After the renovation, the entire 70-story super building has only four floors left. Each floor has a height of fifty meters, and the interior is full of metal columns. In addition, the smart trees grow next to each other. The strong and thick tree bodies and lush green branches and leaves are walking in it, as if they have entered a forest, making people feel energetic.
Luo Yuan looked over layer by layer and soon arrived at the top floor. Compared with the three floors below, there were not many wisdom trees here, only a few scattered, and most of the space was extremely empty.
Not far away, a whole team of guards with live ammunition specifically guarded the huge lead metal cans similar to water storage tanks, which were particularly eye-catching. It is ten meters high and nearly five meters in diameter. It is connected to a large number of pipes on the surface, leading to all directions like a spider web.
The energy core is placed here, which is the most important core part of the entire wisdom tree production base. Without the energy core, this production base will lose its meaning.
"In order to save active energy, we specially designed a conveying pipeline directly to the roots of the plant and carried out scientific management, which not only maximizes the utilization of each active energy, but also greatly reduces the occurrence of accidents. As of now, the safety record of no accidents has reached 21 days."
"It's done well!" Luo Yuan finally spoke out and praised.
Hearing Luo Yuan’s rare praise, the person in charge finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In order to establish this smart tree production base, the price paid is quite high, especially in the early stages, many staff members stimulated the smart tree because of ignorance and lost their lives. As for the harvest, the number of people who had accidents was even greater.
In just over four months, thirty-two lives have been sacrificed here.
Fortunately, with the standardization of management, especially after the application of specially customized harvesting equipment, special laser cutting is used during harvesting, and the number of deaths has dropped sharply, and accidents have occurred nowadays.
...
Before the inspection was over, Luo Yuan looked back again and saw that the wisdom tree could not help but feel surging. This wisdom tree production base has now become a strong booster for the development of human science and technology!
The entire production base can provide about a thousand hearts of wisdom every year and make it into medicines for 2,000 people to take. Compared with more than 100,000 scientific researchers today, such a number is naturally pitiful. Not to mention the popularity of the whole nation, even if all researchers get one, it will be nowhere to be possible.
But even with such a small amount, its driving force for the development of human science and technology is beyond imagination.
Although the time is still short and it has only been more than ten days since the first batch of smart potions taken, in just over ten days, human technology has shown an explosive breakthrough. The results that have emerged almost exceeded the total of the previous three months.
In just these days, more than 30 Belstar factories have been re-activated; the first generation of practical quantum computers have been formally finalized and small batch production is ready...
This is because the time is too short and the number of people taken in the first batch is only more than 100 people, and there is still greater potential that is far from being released.
In many industries, personal hard work and diligence can make up for the lack of talent, but it simply does not work in the field of scientific research. Most scientific researchers have only mediocre after their whole lives. The gap between an ordinary scientific research worker and a great scientist is even greater than that between primary school students and college students.
Moreover, with the advancement of human science and technology, especially after the 20th century, humans have acquired more and more knowledge, and their branches have become more and more detailed. Like the generalists who have moved across several fields in the past, they have disappeared. Many people have only revolved in specific branches throughout their lives, and there are very few scientific researchers across majors and fields.
This is not for more specialization, but because there is not enough energy and too much knowledge, so I can't learn it at all.
Especially in the process of human beings cracking the technology of Belstar, the updates of knowledge have become more frequent and intense. New achievements appear almost every few days, and new theories are supplemented or subverted every month. The knowledge learned today may be out of date after just one month, and needs to be re-learned, and even the speed of knowledge renewal exceeds the speed of learning.
With this rapid technological leap, scientific research has become increasingly demanding on IQ. Without the ability to learn quickly, it is difficult to adapt to scientific research work anymore. In fact, most scientific researchers have been unable to keep up with this pace.
If this situation continues, human technological progress will inevitably slow down gradually. After all, the number of human researchers is really pitifully small. Such a number is even a bit barely inherited from civilization. Apart from the brief technological outbreak when he first came into contact with Bosnapshot Technology, it will eventually become powerless.
The emergence of smart potions coincides with the fact that it allows human wisdom to be improved beyond the limits of human beings, with efficient learning speed and lightning-sharp thinking. Even the most mediocre scientific researchers are no longer ordinary. It can be said that almost everyone is a super scientist, or has the potential to become a super scientist.
It almost adds a powerful booster to the development of today's human beings out of thin air!
…………
The cold wind blew across the ground, and the people from the engineering company dragged their tired bodies back to the spacecraft one after another.
The day's work is finally over.
Cui Weichuan ordered his captain to count the team's tools and report the damage to the superiors. He finally sat in his position. He unbuttoned his helmet and gasped, and he didn't even have the appetite to eat.
After working for a day, I was not very tired. After all, now it is not as good as before. Now, there are thousands of engineering vehicles in the entire engineering company, and there are countless engineering equipment. It is no longer the pure physical labor of picking ice.
But when he approached the giant beast, the feeling of being depressed as if he could not breathe, made him feel particularly exhausted. This was the effect of wearing protective clothing. If he didn't wear it, he would probably faint like the rumor I heard before.
"I really don't know how it feels to those who work on the back of giant beasts?" When I thought about this, Cui Weichuan felt much more relaxed.
The draws they drew were good. They were responsible for cutting the purple horn thorns on the legs of the giant beast. They were said to be horn thorns. In fact, each one was six or seven meters long and four meters thick. They were densely covered with fine scales, densely packed, and shiny purple light, which gave people a sense of terror.
Moreover, this kind of horn thorn is incredibly hard, and ordinary mechanical cutting is not enough. In just a few minutes, the gears have been smoothed out. Even high-power laser cutting is not easy to use. The best way is to slowly grind it with high-pressure water.
Although the climate is now severe and the water source required for high-pressure water cutting has become a problem, there are mobile nuclear power plants on the construction site, which are extremely abundant in energy, so it only takes some effort to obtain water sources.
Unfortunately, the whole day today, their squadron had 300 people and 80 water cutting equipment, and only cut out the five thinnest horn thorns. Fortunately, many horn thorns have been cut in half, and by tomorrow, the number should be greatly increased.
"Captain of the Squadron, you haven't eaten yet. I just got an extra serving here." At this time, Lao Lin's voice came from his ears.
"Ah, thank you, Lao Hu!" Cui Weichuan was not a fledgling young man, so he didn't believe that he had taken it too much. After taking it, he found that he was indeed a little hungry.
"What are you grateful for? It's a good thing!" Lao Lin said with a silly smile.
The meal was quite rich, just like noon, with three dishes in it, and the staple food was fine cactus steamed buns. He was from the south and ate rice before the end of the world, but after eating it for a few years, he had already gotten used to it.
Moreover, this kind of meal is something you can enjoy when you are in the engineering team. When you are unemployed, you don’t have this treatment.
While having a meal, Lao Lin said, "Squadron Captain, what you are asking for inquiries!"
"Yeah!" Cui Weichuan nodded while eating.
"When do you think our engineering company can do it? It won't be over and it will be dissolved again?" Lao Lin said with some concern.
"It's useless to ask me about this matter! It depends on the decision of the superiors!" Cui Weichuan swallowed the food and continued, "However, I guess, the superiors would not allow such a high unemployment rate to continue. Moreover, more and more spacecraft factories are starting construction. Even if it is disbanded, most of us will probably be absorbed into the factory!"
"Then can I be a person who is uneducated and skilled like me?" Old Lin Gang breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked worriedly.
"You can't learn it. No one is born to know it. You don't look old. Life still grows!" Cui Weichuan comforted. He was very optimistic. Now there are only five or six million people left in total. There is no sufficient human resources to waste. As long as society returns to normal, there is no worry about not being able to find a job. It's nothing more than good or bad treatment.
"I'm fifty-eight." Lao Lin said speechlessly.
"I really can't tell it. I thought you were only forty years old." Cui Weichuan said this. Today, humans generally do not look old. Although the average life expectancy has not been formally counted, it is obviously much higher than before the end of the world.
At this time, a group of twelve or thirteen-year-old children passed by. Lao Lin was stunned for a while before asking, "Our company also recruits child labor?"
"Don't talk nonsense, this is from the guard team." Cui Weichuan hurriedly stopped him, worried that the disaster would come out.
At a mobilization meeting before departure, as a middle-level leader of the company, he naturally attended the meeting. He had seen these children at that time, and they were brought by the mayor's secretary himself, and they were of great origin.
...
There is no doubt that these children are naturally Luo Yuan’s cheap children.
Due to the fusion body, their bodies had developed into teenage girls in less than a year, and they emptied out the inventory of the two tutors early and began to learn by themselves.
With their current knowledge level, they are no longer inferior to ordinary scientific researchers, and even far exceed the breadth of their knowledge, and only in terms of depth, they are even worse than that in terms of depth.
However, considering their physical particularity and their psychological immatureness, Luo Yuan did not want them to enter society early, and sending them here this time was considered a training.
On the other hand, it is also to ensure the safety of workers.
This time, although only the surface parts of the giant beast's corpse were collected, such as scales, eyeballs, horn thorns, fingernails, etc., and at most some surface flesh and blood were cut, and it would not penetrate too deep into the giant beast's interior, it was still quite dangerous. After all, no one could guarantee that the internal parasites would not rush out of the body.
Before coming, Luo Yuan took time to do a month of short-term training for them. It has to be said that his clones were born to be warriors. In just one month, he learned his sword skills. Even the will that ordinary people are extremely difficult to condense is not difficult for them, and everything is natural.
In the end, even Luo Yuan was a little jealous of their amazing talents.
