Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

"You know, I only gave you the blueprints for the steam engine. The details of how to make it and how to make it better are all up to you to figure out, right?"

Having said that, Wei Wu paused for a moment before continuing:

"By the way, His Majesty will dispatch experienced shipbuilders in a few days to assist you in designing the steam engines for large ships."

"Consider this the task I give you before I leave. I hope you can give me a surprise when I come back."

Song Zhong and Sun Chang looked at each other, nodded seriously and said:

"Please rest assured, Vice President, we will not let you down!"

Wei Wu nodded, then looked at Sun Chang alone.

"Sun Chang, I'm sure you've all seen the processing machines I brought out earlier. Tell me what you think first."

When Wei Wu mentioned machine tools, all the craftsmen present widened their eyes and wanted to express their thoughts.

It’s a pity that Wei Wu was now asking Sun Chang.

"Mr. Vice President, that processing machine is simply a divine tool. It is simply incomparable to human power."

"Cutting metal is just like cutting tofu. Not only can it be shaped in one go, but the processing precision is also very high."

"If we, the craftsmen, were to rub it by hand, it would not only take a lot of time, but it might not even meet the requirements of the accessories."

Having said that, Sun Chang couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Unfortunately, it needs electricity to operate, and the Institute of Science and Technology only has your mobile power bank to provide it with limited power."

"If we had some other way to generate electricity, whether it was a steam engine or something else, it would be a piece of cake!"

When Sun Chang thought that industrial machine tools could not become a conventional production method, he couldn't help but look at Wei Wu.

"Mr. Vice President, you mentioned before that this mobile power bank converts sunlight into electricity through solar panels."

"Then can we make solar panels to supply electricity to these industrial machine tools so that they can be used regularly?"

Wei Wu looked at Sun Chang with a helpless look on his face, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

You really dare to think like that!

We haven’t even figured out thermal power generation yet, and you’re already thinking about solar energy.

Aren't you afraid of pulling some delicate and fragile organs by taking such big steps?

But despite all the complaints, Wei Wu really came here this time just to solve the electricity problem.

So, after Sun Chang finished speaking, he immediately said:

"Forget about using solar energy. That's not even a field of technology we can get involved in right now."

Hearing this answer, Sun Chang couldn't help feeling disappointed.

But at this moment, Wei Wu's next words gave him hope.

"You just want electricity! I came here this time to give your blacksmith team a very important task."

"As long as you complete the tasks I assigned to you, we will have the prerequisites for making the generator."

dynamo!

Hearing this simple and straightforward name, Sun Chang's eyes lit up with excitement.

"What mission? Please tell me, Vice President! Our blacksmith team will definitely complete it even if we have to work tirelessly!"

Wei Wu had long guessed that Sun Chang would have this reaction, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"It's very simple. Just get struck by lightning dozens of times."

“Ah? This… this…”

"Ha ha ha ha."

Looking at the confused expression on Sun Chang's face, Wei Wu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Okay, I'm just teasing you! I'm not asking you to get struck by lightning, I'm asking you to make something that gets struck by lightning."

As he spoke, Wei Wu flipped his wrist and took out two toy magnets from the system space.

"You've probably all heard of magnets! Like charges repel each other, and opposite charges attract each other. They have a certain attraction to metals."

As Wei Wu spoke, he held the magnet in his hand and played with it to demonstrate.

Although not all craftsmen have come into contact with it, they are not unfamiliar with magnets.
