Things From Another World

282. Chapter 282 won the face and lost life.

The development of bicycles is much smoother than expected.

The most troubled Dunn used to be the production technology of tires and bearings. However, these two technical problems have been solved one by one, and one immediately was successfully overcome by the technical team headed by Nokia.

The processing technology of bearings has long been applied in gnome engineering. The ball bearings have been widely used in the semi-finished steam combat tanks that they have previously restored. The production technology has been available, but the processing technology is not high.

The problem of processing technology was also successfully solved by the addition of Dunn. The original millimeter-level processing technology was instantly upgraded to the micron level, and the precision improvement of nearly a thousand times increased the life and performance of the bearing many times.

The production process of the tires has also been successfully solved by the wit gnomes. This group of loved ones are always full of positive attitudes towards new technologies and new things. They are afraid that at least one of them will be titled as academician. The big cow.

The appearance of tires is of course not just for bicycles. The first thing to enjoy the benefits is the trains of Ellington. After seeing the stability and speed of the carriages of the Lord’s House, the next day, the entrance of Datang Engineering Research Institute It was packed with the figure that required the modification of the carriage.

The modified carriage did not disappoint them, whether it is a shock absorbing spring or a rubber cushion, or a new type of bearing and tire. After these things were put on, the carriage was like a change of face, completely different. .

The original stiff tremors became soft and gentle. Even if the potholes were comfortable, I didn’t know how many times. The most exciting thing was that they were running on the asphalt road. The speed was at least five times higher than before. More than! Due to the improvement of the bearing technology, the friction and resistance are reduced, and the consumption of horses is also reduced. Therefore, the transportation speed and distance per unit time have been greatly improved, and the amount of grass consumed by the horse has also been reduced a lot!

It is equal to the cost of the modified carriage, as long as several times of transportation, you can return to the original, and the rest is to enjoy the benefits of the new technology.

Under this stimulus, Ellington has spurred a trend of chasing new technologies.

After just a few days, the bicycles began to appear in the streets and lanes of Ellington.

The first bikes were not sold, but were directly digested internally, for those who needed to travel back and forth to convey messages and carry light objects – and of course it was not easy to teach them to ride a bicycle.

The adults are okay to say that they have a strong sense of autonomy. With a little training, one can quickly grasp the flaws, but the children…

“Hey – big brother, don’t let go -“

Elijah clasped the handlebars, crying and begging for Dunn. Don’t let go.

“Trust me, I have been holding behind you, you just ride.”

Dunn constantly encourages Elia, and of course the one used by parents on the planet to teach bicycles…

“I, I know… I will give it a try…”

Fiona, who was riding a bicycle not far away, saw this scene, and the face was complicated.

I knew this before, but it’s better to be stupid…

After the first bike was off the assembly line, Dunn tried it, then Fiona wanted to try it. Dunn laughed at her, but Fiona got angry and learned to ride in minutes. She also proudly went to Elsa. And Tina they show off.

Now that I saw Dunn teaching Elia to ride a bike, Fiona found herself to be an out-and-out idiot.

I won the face and lost my life…

The appearance of bicycles greatly ignited the enthusiasm of the residents of Ellington, and they were the first to see this kind of purely mechanical construction means – what? carriage? Sorry, the carriage also needs Malayla…

It’s just two wheels, chains, and ankles. After a clever combination, you can advance at a very fast speed, and you can master the direction yourself. It is not too convenient to travel short distances!

Especially when the tires are advancing on the asphalt road, it is so smooth and comfortable, letting you feel at your own control, it is so cool!

Therefore, after the second batch of bicycles went offline, they immediately rolled up a wave of buying in Ellington.

The price of a bicycle is only ten gold coins.

what? Too expensive! ?

Then you must be a slacker!

Even in the Hog era, ten gold coins are only three months of savings, not to mention the more than three months since Dunn’s lord took office, the drastic reforms have greatly increased everyone’s income, and now work for a month. If you have a few gold coins, if you work harder, you can work overtime to grow some cash crops for the lord, or go to work part-time. It is not a problem to break through ten gold coins every month!

It’s worthless to use a month’s income to buy something that the Lord’s adult has developed, even those that the emperors don’t have.

It’s just too much!

In the three months since Dunn took office, the income of residents of Ellington has doubled three or three times in three months. However, after the surge in income, the residents did not have corresponding consumption methods, so that the government can not recover gold coins. It was very criticized by Fiona until the launch of comics and novels a few days ago was a successful recovery of a small amount of gold coins.

Then, now, the appearance of the bicycle finally gave them the opportunity to spend money quickly, so Dunn just sent out the salary and slammed back into the treasury of the lord’s house, and Fiona’s face once again showed a smile.

Such a fan of Fiona let Dunn shake her head and even talk to her: “Don’t care too much about gold coins and wealth. Frankly speaking, we are the ruling class, the economy is the tool in hand, and using wealth to stimulate residents to produce and create is the real thing. The purpose of the increase in income is that they bring affluent life to the illusion, and what really makes them rich is the increase in productivity after active work.”

“I understand the truth, but I just like the increase in the number of gold coins.”

Fiona looked at the expression “You are not good, you can fire my squid”, and that look is clear that Dunn squinted and said something – who in the world does not love gold coins?

Dunn shot his forehead, talking to a former aristocrat, and the former nobleman who was a businessman, said it was too early.

He can’t tell Fiona that because productivity determines the relationship of production, and the economic base determines the contradiction between the superstructure, productivity and production relations, the contradiction between the economic base and the superstructure must be resolved, because the ultimate goal is to serve the whole people. All the soldiers are preparing for chaos, so they make money to better drive the economic situation to the direction they want…

Of course, she won’t listen. After all, it’s a woman. She only listens to what she wants to hear – even if Fiona is smarter, she is also a woman.

I am afraid that in her eyes, the ultimate goal of making money should be to enjoy the same life as the local tyrant. Oh, no, she knows that she is a mage… So in her eyes, is she making money to build a mage tower?

Dunn couldn’t help but sigh. Isn’t he so motivated in her eyes?

– How can you build a Tower of Babel again?

When the economy is active to a certain extent, the emergence of new things always carries a trend, just like this trend, which is led by the little newspaper sellers of Datang Daily.

With the increasing influence of Datang Daily, the income of residents of Ellington has been increasing. After half a month of birth, Datang Daily opened a subscription service and delivered daily newspapers. The monthly payment is only extra. Ten silver coins – although a bit expensive, some people have begun to enjoy this kind of money to accept service life.

In the past, the salesman ran off the door with his feet in the morning, but since the bicycle appeared, the situation was different.

“叮铃铃~”

The crisp bell rang, and then a “bang” sounded, a new Datang Daily was put in the mailbox at the door, and when the owner who heard the sound went out, the salesman had already rode his bicycle. It is.

After eating breakfast, the person who needs to go to work pushes the bicycle out.

“I am going to work. 叮 铃铃~”

After screaming, I met with other workers on the road. I talked and laughed on the road and quickly went to the factory area where I worked. In just a few days, it has become a brand new daily life for many people.

If there are other earth traversers coming to Ellington at this time, I am afraid that I will think that I have passed through modern times. There is no way. Now, in addition to clothing and architectural style, Ellington is really too modern and modern. Similar.

Whether it’s a clean and tidy street layout, a flat asphalt road, or a streetlight erected on both sides of the street – it’s worth mentioning that these street lights are crystal balls that are constant lighting, not electric lights.

The reason why I don’t need electric lights is because the material of the filament, Dunn, can’t get it. He doesn’t know how to extract tungsten. He only knows that bamboo charcoal can be used. But it is obviously not easy to use. It is better to climb the earth technology than to spend so much energy. Use a magical method to solve problems quickly and violently.

Constant lighting is the solution he found for the time being, because Ellington is not big now, the number of street lights is barely acceptable, and if he continues to expand, he must find a way to find new ways to solve the lighting problem – he It is impossible to keep squatting in the warehouse for constant lighting of street lamps. Perhaps the Elf family’s fluorescent grass is a good solution, environmental protection and energy saving…

If the previous things only affect the life of Ellington residents in a subtle way, then the emergence of bicycles has directly changed their lives. The change in the way of travel has led to the acceleration of information transmission, the indirect improvement of work efficiency, and The pace of life is speeding up.

After so many years of embarrassing residents who have lived in depression for a long time, the repressed energy finally broke out through the birth of bicycles in the month of the 849 year celebration.

And this explosive power, so that the spies who recently came to Ellington to inquire about the news, were all shocked.
