Lord Harland.
Chapter 233 Magic Crystal Charging
The manufacture of the microscope was very difficult, and it took several years without success.
Until Ruiz joined the project team.He has extraordinary visual talent and can observe the subtle differences of the lens. Although Ruiz was later transferred to the intelligence department and needed to participate in some special tasks, he has been working part-time in the Optical Research Institute.Last winter, under the guidance of Ruiz, the first microscope was successfully built in the territory of Harland.
Through this fifty-times magnification microscope, the doctors in Harland's territory saw cells and bacteria for the first time.
The discovery of bacteria will greatly promote the progress of medicine.
The discovery of cells also played a great role in the study of magic.
Because the microscope is so magical, all the magicians and doctors in Harland's territory are trying to use it.
In order to plan the use time of the microscope, Li Cha also formulated strict regulations, and formulated a machine time use system according to different levels and different contributions.
If you want to get a longer chance, you need to prove your abilities and contribute to the research of medicine and magic.
For every successful research, Li Cha has established a contribution system, and only those with a high contribution system are given priority in using advanced instruments.
In the territory of Harland, there are only a dozen doctors and magicians who can use microscopes for research.
Heath, Butler, Adrian, etc. had less contribution. In order to use the microscope, they even needed to adjust their work and rest habits, switching to sleeping during the day and studying at night.
It has been less than half a year since the territory produced the microscope last winter, and a lot of research results have been produced in both medicine and magic, and more than papers have been published in periodicals within the territory.
The quality of several papers was very high, which made Li Cha feel refreshed.
Now in Harland's territory, there are already more than magicians, magic apprentices, more than doctors, and six teachers who have published papers.
Although these papers are not published publicly, only a few dozen copies are printed at a time. But scientific research in Harland's territory has begun to take root. As long as this seedling is protected, it will one day grow into a towering tree.
After creating the first microscope, Ruiz and two mirror grinders continued their efforts and spent three months making constant adjustments to create the second microscope.
The magnification of this microscope is even greater, reaching one hundred and twenty times.
It is simply impossible to study the microstructure using a microscope with a magnification of 120 times.
But there is magic in the plane of morning light, through visual magnification magic, superimposed with a microscope, you can continue to magnify the visual effect.
Visual magnification is only a second-ring magic, and standard magic can only magnify images ten times. However, if thirty points of mental power are invested, the visual magnification effect will be increased to a thousand times. With a 120 times microscope, the magnification effect will be superimposed to 120,000 times, and the internal structure of the crystal can barely be observed.
While letting the Institute of Optics continue to improve the microscope, Li Cha began to study the difference between the structure of the magic crystal and the discarded magic crystal.
Gradually, Richard discovered the difference.
There is a special mechanical structure in the magic crystal atoms full of magic energy. This structure is a natural magic rune. Once the magic power in the magic crystal is exhausted, this special mechanical structure will lose its balance and the runes will also lose their balance. will dissipate.
By studying this rune, Richard discovered the fundamental problem of mana storage.
He created the first man-made magic crystal through the super-magic metal. Even though the man-made magic crystal is large in size and weighs several hundred catties, the magic energy stored in it is not enough to release a zero-ring trick, which costs thousands of gold coins. The man-made magic crystal produced is not practical at all.
But this is a breakthrough from zero to one. After completing this step, the magician's theory of magic energy storage has been completely understood.
Magic charging has begun to show its light, and Richard immediately mobilized all magicians to participate in this project.
There are many problems that need to be solved, such as the problem of magic energy conversion, the accuracy of magic power output, the problem of magic energy interface, the efficiency of charging array, etc. How long will it take for Richard to successfully research it alone?
The first person to make a meritorious service was Butler. Because he converted to meditation, he had a special understanding of magic factors. A sudden inspiration allowed him to create a special rune that solved the problem of magic energy conversion.
Then, with the help of the Optical Research Institute, the Territory Mage Association overcame the problem of magic output accuracy.
The problem with the magic energy interface did not remain stuck for long. In May, it was overcome by Wendy and her research team.
The most difficult thing is the efficiency of the charging circle.
This problem is particularly difficult to solve. The charging efficiency of the charging circle is too low, only about in , and it takes more than ten days to charge a magic crystal.
The magic well can continuously provide energy, and a lot of magic energy is wasted every year. Even if the charging efficiency is too low, this technology is still starting to bring profits to Harland's territory.
With the continuous improvement of the charging array, the charging efficiency has gradually improved, reaching about one percent.
The efficiency has increased five times, and it takes about three days to charge a standard magic crystal.
If there are enough discarded magic crystals, this technology can bring funds of one hundred gold coins per month to the Harland territory.
As the charging efficiency continues to improve, the benefits will increase. If the charging efficiency can be increased to 30%, relying on this small magic well, the Harland territory will receive 36,000 yuan per year. Gains from gold coins.
Based on the monthly salary of eight silver coins for veterans in the Harland Territory, four thousand soldiers could be supported.
In addition, the Lightning Tower is also equipped with an array to gather magic power. The magic core of the legendary monster is equivalent to a magic energy battery that can be used an unlimited number of times, and can also charge abandoned magic crystals.
Because this technology is very promising, it will even advance the level of magic civilization in the Dawn plane.So Richard attaches great importance to this technology, and Wendy personally participated in the improvement of charging efficiency.
Although the benefits are not large now, Richard still ordered Hayden to mobilize elite soldiers from the intelligence department to secretly monitor the personnel involved in the research and prevent them from contacting outsiders.
This research was also arranged by Richard in the Tower of Fire.
Because he was worried that the Venus family would leave a secret door, Richard has not arranged for anyone to go to the Tower of Flame in recent months.
After entering June, the construction of the Lightning Tower has been completed, and the members of the Harland Mage Association have basically moved to the vicinity of the Lightning Tower.
The territory's magic laboratory was also moved to the Lightning Tower.
In order to serve the group of magicians, Richard also arranged thousands of people near the Tower of Lightning.
The Lightning Tower is located at the northern end of the Harland territory, more than 100 kilometers away from Malte Castle in the south. Due to the territory's strict migration order, there are basically no outsiders in this area.
The Tower of Flame is very close to the Tower of Lightning. Magicians in the territory can do research in the Tower of Flame during the day and return to the Tower of Lightning at night.
Outside the two magic towers, Richard had stationed troops to prevent anyone from approaching.
Time has entered September, and the efficiency of the charging array has improved again, reaching about %.According to this efficiency, a discarded magic crystal can be recharged in one day.
Because the charging efficiency has improved, the discarded magic crystals in Harland's territory will soon be consumed.
Starting in June, Richard began to purchase abandoned magic crystals at a premium of 10% through the business channels of Harland territory.
After years of development, the scale of commercial channels in the Harland Territory is not small. Relying on a wide variety of commodities, it has spread all over the three provinces of northern Xinjiang, and has also developed into the three duchies of Jonathan, Edward, and Fox.
The size of the caravan is second only to the three duchies in northern Xinjiang.
Relying on the business tentacles of Harland territory, the caravan negotiated with hundreds of hereditary nobles and also found many professional families. In a few months, the caravan traveled throughout the three provinces of northern Xinjiang and purchased more than 5,000 magic-depleted people. Magic crystal.
Compared with the purchase price of the royal family, the territory of Harland has paid a premium after all, and the abandoned magic crystal can be exchanged for various commodities.
The little nobles live their lives carefully, and this acquisition almost wiped out all the discarded magic crystals accumulated by the little nobles in northern Xinjiang over the past few years.
After acquiring enough discarded magic crystals, Wendy continued to lead the research team to improve the efficiency of the charged magic array.
Entering September, the autumn harvest has been completed.
This year's climate is a bit dry, and the grain output has dropped by %.
Fortunately, the Harland Territory developed the paddy fields near Gravessen on a large scale this year and extracted water from the Black River for irrigation. It was less affected by the drought. By the time the autumn grain was put into storage, the grain depot had already stored tons of grain.
Grain reserves are related to the life and death of the territory.
In order to prevent the granary managers from being corrupt and reselling grain, Richard established a strict system, asking Tang En, who was in charge of agriculture, to inspect the granary once every half a month. Richard would also conduct random inspections from time to time.
Although the spot check system cannot fundamentally solve the problem, and treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, it can still play a small role and catch some rats.
These people also came to set fire to the granary, making a death without proof.
In his previous life, Richard had seen the granaries of the world and knew the news about the burning of granaries. He did not expect that the same thing would happen in his territory without changing the medicine.
It is a pity that the lords of the otherworldly world do not need to compromise with the bureaucrats under their rule. All the bureaucrats in the grain depot were executed by Richard Lingchi, and his family members were sent to the mines to keep company with the orcs, even the two-year-old children were not spared.
The soldiers guarding the grain depots were all executed because they failed to fulfill their responsibilities, and the soldiers were expelled from the army, and they would never be hired within three generations.
There are professional officers who have joined the army for eight or nine years, as well as veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.The leading officer is even a member of the distant branch of the Harland family, and a blood relative of Gibson, the chief steward of the Harland family.
Richard was merciless in dealing with these people.
Even though many people approached Li Cha to intercede, they were all severely reprimanded by him and pushed back.
Through harsh punishment, it can still play a deterrent effect.
Especially when the territory is not too big and Li Cha can supervise it, the bureaucrats dare not go too far in order to keep the whole family's head.
With 80,000 tons of grain, Richard had to feed 140,000 indentured servants, and he also had to keep grain for next year's planting and reserve grain. Only 20,000 tons could be sold.
Due to the drought this year, grain production in the inland areas of the west has been severely reduced.The price of grain in Heihe Fort is higher than in previous years, tons of grain can be sold for gold coins.
After September, Richard continued to patrol the territory, dealt with a number of corrupt officials, dismissed a number of incompetent officials, and promoted a number of newcomers with better performance.
For two whole months, Richard visited every village, factory and mine in the Harland territory.
The lord has worked tirelessly to personally touch the grassroots, leaving a lot of filth unseen.
In a village near Vicksburg, Richard randomly walked into a freedman's house and asked: "How is the harvest this year? Have the officials from the city hall bullied you?"
"This year's harvest was not very good. The village head was very unfair when dividing the fields. Our family did not get the paddy fields. After paying the tax, we couldn't eat enough. We could only live with wild vegetables and grass roots. We didn't even have money to buy winter clothes. It's not as good as being a contract slave, Master Li Cha, you must never leave us alone!"
The man in this family of freemen is named Joseph, a slave bought by Richard from the Grand Duchy of Stanik. He has been diligent and diligent in Harland's territory for five years, although he has not made any credit or made any mistakes.
This group of people was pardoned by Richard one month in advance and became free citizens in March this year.
Becoming a free citizen before March will not delay the spring plowing. Generally speaking, indentured slaves who enter the Harland territory before July will become free citizens some time in advance before the spring plowing.
Joseph was very frightened when faced with Richard's inquiry, but he may have deep resentment towards the village chief and the bureaucrats in the agricultural department, so he was very angry when he complained.
Li Cha looked in the yard and found that there was a lot of firewood piled up in the yard. It seemed that this family was relatively poor and couldn't afford coal, so they could only collect shrubs and withered grass for the winter.
The clothes they wore were also very shabby. They should have been issued when they were indentured slaves. The clothes on the children were already worn to tatters and their skin was exposed. Now that the climate is relatively cold, they are already a little blue and red.
The situation of this family can be said to be bare and nothing.
After listening to Joseph's statement, Richard would not take any side of the story. He nodded and said to the soldiers beside him: "Gather the villagers of this village together, and then find the officials of the agricultural department who allocate the fields to this village. In addition, bring the village chief here, and we will hold a meeting on site to see if the problem in this village is serious?"
After a short time, the soldiers brought the village chief to the courtyard of Joseph's house. The village chief wanted to get angry at Joseph, but due to the presence of Richard, he did not dare to speak nonsense. However, after hearing all the rumors about Richard punishing bureaucrats, his face suddenly turned pale, his legs were shaking, and he looked trembling.
Soon the villagers also gathered together, and Richard saw numb expressions on some people's faces.
Generally speaking, because the free people of the territory have changed their destiny, their lives have been greatly improved, and their mental state is often positive. Seeing the many submissive and indifferent freedmen, Richard immediately knew that the problem in this village must be serious.
