Not only the Principality of Standing but also Earl Satsuma wanted to do something during the winter.
Taking advantage of the weakening flow of the Sandy River in winter, the Sandy River bank reconstruction project of the Bangta City overall reconstruction plan took the opportunity to accelerate progress and began to clean up the sediment on the riverbed.
During this cleanup work, the large-scale magic excavator newly developed by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce made its official debut for the first time.
Compared with the small magic excavators that were generally used in farmland reconstruction before, the newly developed large magic excavators are much worse than those excavators on the earth. They can only be pulled around by horse-drawn carriages, but the base and excavating arms It is basically imitated. As long as it is placed in the right position, the excavation efficiency can be basically the same as those 2.0-sized small excavators on the earth.
With the help of magic machinery, the river bed sediment cleaning work went very smoothly. It only took two months in winter to basically clean up the sediment that had accumulated in the Bangta City section of the Sandy River in the past few years. It was clean, and the entire river bed dropped nearly five meters.
At the same time, construction has begun on the canal connecting the Sandy River to the Rum River in the lower reaches of Bonta City.
According to Porter, who is in charge of the project, it will take about one to one and a half years to dig the canal.
Taking into account the Sandy River bank reconstruction plan and the future opening of the canal, Earl Satsuma, under Xu Yi's suggestion, prepared to select a location to build a dam upstream of the Sibonta City river section.
In addition to flood control and water storage, this dam has another possible function that has not been told to Earl Satsuma yet, and that is that it can be used as a hydroelectric power station in the future.
If it can be built according to Xu Yi's vision, then even if the flow of the Sandy River is not large. The power generation of this hydroelectric power station can definitely meet the needs of Bangta City.
But Xu Yi is just a mechanical engineer. But I am not that familiar with the power generation profession. Therefore, although he developed a wind turbine that uses magic power as power, he was unable to immediately develop a hydroelectric generator and even built a corresponding hydroelectric power station.
So when building the dam, Xu Yi could only tell Chairman Cruz some of his considerations first, so that the Amri Chamber of Commerce would leave enough space when building the dam to add hydroelectric power in the future. crew use.
While studying hydroelectric generating units, Xu Yi discovered a very important problem.
He might be able to combine magic with his knowledge of mechanical theory to create one novel magical machine after another in this world. But his abilities have limitations after all.
Things like hydraulic generators, which were completely outside his professional knowledge, he was far less knowledgeable than mechanical knowledge.
If he wanted to imitate it completely, it would be very difficult even if it was not completely impossible based on his current abilities.
And his time now can be said to be very precious, and he doesn't have that much time to waste on this kind of research that he is not good at.
This is a very contradictory question.
He really wants to copy all the important things about the industrial system on Earth and establish an identical and complete industrial system on the continent of Sainz, but he is not God, and he cannot do everything.
"Don't do what you can't do yourself. Just leave it to others." Steele said with a relaxed smile after hearing Xu Yi talk about his troubles. "Xu Yi. You are a human being, not a god. So there must be some things you can't do. If you are worried about this, you are just causing trouble for yourself. Besides, why are you so anxious to think of everything? Everything is done?"
Xu Yi could only shake his head and sigh.
Of course, it was impossible for him to tell Steele that he had traveled from the earth, so although he confided his troubles to Steele, he only mentioned it vaguely. Of course, Steele could not understand him. The cause of real distress.
"Well, instead of wasting time here worrying, it's better to seize the time and do something else." Seeing that Xu Yi's expression still didn't improve, Steele advised again. "You said you can't do many things outside of magic machinery. That's very simple. You just need to do your best with magic machinery. For example, you think you can't solve the hydroelectric generator set you mentioned. It doesn’t matter, the wind magic generator has been studied well enough. You just need to make this thing the best, and I think you can achieve your goal.”
"Don't you just do what you can't do?" Xu Yi looked at Steele blankly, with a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
Steele held his face, looked at him and nodded seriously.
"Yes. Everyone has the limitations of their own abilities. Even if Xu Yi's ability is very strong, even surpassing everyone I know, you still have limitations. Grandpa often warned me about this before, just because he wanted to Let me not waste too much time on magic that I am not good at when studying magic."
"The world of magic is endless, and it is absolutely impossible for a magician to explore it all. So for a magician, the most important thing is to study the magic he is good at to the extreme. If he can do this, Then he can still become a powerful and outstanding magician, and may even change the entire magical world. I think this is also suitable for you."
Hearing Steele's gentle voice of persuasion, Xu Yi became thoughtful.
After a while, his eyes gradually regained their vitality.
Steele is right, a person's ability is limited, and he can never really do everything he wants to do.
Although he wants to copy all the industrial systems on the earth to this continent, the reality is that except for him, no one on this continent has the relevant knowledge and understanding of modern industry.
The modern industrial system is an extremely complex and huge system. Even if a person is extremely talented in mechanical engineering and has an extremely profound theoretical and practical foundation, it does not mean that he also has the same ability in other aspects.
As a mechanical engineer, he should know the meaning of the term "efficiency" better than anyone else.
Since it is extremely inefficient to conduct research in a field that he does not understand. Then there is almost no point in wasting his precious time and energy on this.
Instead of this. It is better to fully understand your own advantages. Explore further in your areas of expertise.
Since the magic machine has already demonstrated its power, and even shown many aspects that are even better than those of the machines on earth, then why doesn't he continue to study in this field, and why waste time on other things
He doesn't understand hydroelectric generating units, so the research progress is slow
Then don’t study it yet.
As long as he works hard on the wind magic generator and the fire magic generator that Evita proposed last time, he can still achieve the effect he needs, or even better.
Even regarding the idea of a hydroelectric generator, Akali also proposed that this problem could be solved directly by using a water magic array. It can also replace the function of water flow.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi suddenly discovered that he was not the only one in the world with unique ideas, and others were not inferior either.
After figuring this out, Xu Yi suddenly felt a bright light flash in his mind, and he laughed loudly involuntarily.
"Haha... ha... Si... Steele, you are right, so right!" Xu Yi seemed to be out of breath from laughing all at once, which made Steele couldn't help but be stunned. "I won't do anything I can't do, huh. How can I accomplish everything by myself? What I can't do will be left to the people of this continent to do in the future. And I. Just do what you can and should do.”
Although Steele didn't understand what Xu Yi was thinking when he said these words, seeing him so happy, he knew that he must have figured it out, so he became happy.
"Yeah, you just need to do what you like and are good at." Steele said.
"Yeah." Xu Yi nodded vigorously, and then said: "But you can't completely ignore other things. Although I can't do it, I believe there will always be someone who can do it. I just need to put these concepts forward Come out, someone will fulfill my wishes in the future, Steele, I think I know what to do!”
Steele looked at Xu Yi in confusion.
What on earth was he going to do
###
Three days later, "Bangta Daily" published a long article by Xu Yi on the front page of the newspaper, as well as the three most important pages on the second and third pages.
The title of this article is "The World in My Eyes."
When they saw the title, many people were a little confused and curious at the same time.
Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce that always brings novelty to people. Everyone is very interested in its president Xu Yi. So what does his so-called "the world in my eyes" look like
As soon as the chapter opens, everyone who reads the newspaper is immediately drawn in.
"Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west? Why is lightning always accompanied by thunder? Why do apples always fall to the ground from branches? In the eyes of many people, these three questions may be stupid, because almost all People think this is a matter of course, without any reason. But for me, these questions actually have answers... "
In the following pages, Xu Yi briefly introduced the knowledge about the movement of celestial bodies, cloud convection and gravity.
Although his introduction was very vague due to various concerns, anyone who has read this article can immediately see that he is definitely not talking nonsense, but actually makes sense.
So this article easily aroused people's curiosity.
Yes, why
Many things may be because we have long been accustomed to them, so we don't intend to ask why, but even if they are common things, there is always some truth in them.
However, after arousing the reader's curiosity, Xu Yi changed the subject and began to describe the various effects brought about by the emergence of magical machines.
After briefly describing the convenience and impact brought by magic machines, Xu Yi began to describe the future development prospects of magic machines at the end of the chapter.
In his description, as long as the magical machinery can develop and grow, it will not only be Bangta City. It’s not just the Lampali kingdom either. Even the entire Sainz continent will undergo earth-shaking changes. Everyone's life will become different from before.
Xu Yi used clearly well-thought-out and refined language to paint a moving picture of what magic machines would look like after they became popular, and then announced two pieces of news that surprised everyone.
The first piece of news is that he is planning to publish a series of books related to the basic theories of magic machines in the coming time, so that all people who are interested in magic machines can know why these magic machines were created and why. It will have various magical functions.
If the first message surprised everyone, then when people saw the second message, they were even more surprised.
Second message. It turns out that Xu Yi is planning to open an academy in his own name!
What's even more strange is that this academy is neither a magic academy nor a skills academy that teaches various professional skills. It is a pure basic knowledge academy that only allows students to learn some of the most basic things Xu Yi said. Knowledge and a deeper understanding of the world.
This knowledge includes the whys he mentioned at the beginning of the chapter.
After seeing this article published in "Bangta Daily", not only others could not understand what Xu Yi wanted to do, but also the people around Xu Yi.
Steele immediately found Xu Yi with this newspaper.
"I can understand your first decision. After all, you have always told me that you hope to allow people on the continent of Sainz to participate in the research and manufacture of magic machinery. This can promote the development of the magic machinery industry as soon as possible. Although this has It may give Xinfei Chamber of Commerce a lot of competitors, but you don’t care anyway.”
Steele frowned. I read the "Bangta Daily" in my hand again, my eyes full of confusion and doubts.
"But your second decision... is too strange. Why do you want to open such an academy? Money is not a problem for you, but time? Do you have so much time to teach children knowledge?"
Xu Yi smiled and did not answer Steele's question. Instead, he threw to Steele the plan for establishing the junior department of Xinfei Academy that he had written out last night.
"Take a look. After reading this, you should understand."
Steele took it and looked through it for a while, the confusion on his face gradually fading.
After reading this planning document that contained all of Xu Yi's ideas for this college, Steele finally understood what Xu Yi meant.
But after thinking for a while, she couldn't help but ask: "Although I understand what you want to do, I still don't understand why you want to do this? This won't help you promote magic machinery, right?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Although it doesn't seem to be helpful or connected to the promotion of magic machines. But the so-called industry is not just a model of magic industry. I want to establish such a college because I want to build a As for when a seed will take root and bear fruit on the mainland, it is not something I can think about now."
Steele looked at Xu Yi blankly for a while, shook his head and sighed softly: "Sometimes I really don't understand what you are thinking. But forget it, anyway, as long as it is something you do, I will definitely support it. Who asked me to be your fiancée?"
Speaking of which, Steele gave Xu Yi a naughty smile.
Xu Yi couldn't help smiling, stretched out his arms to hug Steele, and kissed her. Looking at Steele's happy smile, his heart was also filled with happiness.
If it weren't for Steele's enlightenment to him, he might still be struggling with it, instead of fully understanding the path he should take as he does now.
These two decisions may seem incomprehensible to many people, but Xu Yi does not need them to understand.
All he knew was that after making these two decisions, he instantly felt much more relaxed, and his plans for the future became clearer.
Although even Steele didn't quite understand the academy he wanted to open, Xu Yi was certain that in the future, academies like this would inevitably bloom everywhere on the Sainz continent, even more so than the current magic academy. Several times more.
Of course, this is not something Xu Yihui, who has now figured out, will consider.
In the final analysis, this academy was nothing more than a comfort to himself after he made his decision. (To be continued, please search Leduwo for better novels and faster updates!
