"Well, this concept is not taught in textbooks." The little girl nodded lightly.
"Fu——" Tang Zheng gently blew on the teacup, the tea leaves floated to the other side of the cup with the water waves, he took a sip before saying.
"Steampunk... a derivative culture of the steam age, an age of civilization in which the advanced and the backward coexist, and magic and technology dance together."
"Magic? That's unrealistic."
"Not at all."
"Huh?" Lan Lan raised her head somewhat incomprehensibly and looked at Tang Zheng: "But there is no magic in the human world."
"When any advanced technology was first invented, it was hailed as magic by contemporary people. The planes, rockets, and high-rise buildings in the original world. In the early years, they only existed in the imagination."
"That's true..." Lan Lan nodded, agreeing with this explanation: "The master, are you planning to enter the steampunk era directly?"
Tang Zheng laughed: "That's just a statement. On a large scale, it's still the age of steam. It's just that in the original world, the age of electricity has come so fast that many things that steam engines can do are done with electricity. "
Seeing that the little girl's expression was a little curious, Tang Zheng unfolded the light curtain towards her.
In an instant, nearly hundreds of optional civilization branches were displayed one by one in front of her.
"What is the branch of civilization that you are more interested in?" Tang Zheng asked with a smile.
There are only ten optional Steam Age branch lines in total, and in this other world, it seems that it has also experienced the Steam Age.
It's just that compared to humans, the development of their era is more blooming.
There are many black technologies that Tang Zheng has never heard of before.
Tang Zheng is not entirely sure which ones will help his civilization the most.
Little girl Bingxue is smart, maybe it would be good to let her take a look.
"Let me see, uh..." Lan Lan's pair of star eyes swept back and forth on the light screen, and her slender fingertips quickly pointed to a place to ask.
"Master, what is this difference engine?"
"Computer. To be precise, this device once appeared in the process of human history. It is a mechanical computing device that uses the principle of the step-by-step integration method proposed by Newton to calculate the value of polynomial functions. It can replace manpower and be used to calculate various trigonometric functions and logarithms. The numerical value of the function. These numerical values are mainly used to calculate the numbers that are too complicated for the human brain, and can be accurate to six decimal places at most." Tang Zhengwang searched for the 'difference engine' displayed in the illustrated book As a result, the little girl can't seem to see his picture book.
"Has there been a difference engine in human history? I don't seem to have heard of it." The little girl seemed very curious and interested.
"Well, it existed, but it was almost never run successfully, because the gear construction involved was too large, about 2.5w mechanical parts and weighed 15 tons. It was said at the time that it took two warships, 22 steam locomotives to build. Funding, but in the end only 1/7 was completed. Later the project was called off.”
"And later?"
"And then with the advent of the electrical age and the birth of the first electronic computer, the value of the difference engine was superseded, and no one was left to study this huge and inefficient clunky fellow."
"Alas." The little girl sighed as if for the scientist: "Master, do we want this as a quest line? It seems very difficult..."
"Of course." Tang Zheng nodded earnestly, "This is a difference engine that exists in another world, and it has been researched and can be put into operation. Unexpectedly, they have also walked the path that humans once imagined."
The difference engine is almost as valuable as the steam engine, the representative product of the steam era, for the steam era of the other world.
With it, it can accurately help Tang Zheng calculate and plan the complex structure of other mechanical devices, the resources consumed, and even the route planning during construction.
Just imagine when everyone else only had the Iron Age, or even the Bronze Age.
What is the concept of pulling out a computer that can calculate values by yourself?
It's like holding a small pistol with you, and I pulled a nuke out of my crotch!
Civilized dimension reduction strike!
The difference engine in the age of steam is like the computer in the modern era.
With a flick of the wrist, the difference engine was included in the civilization branch.
Swipe at the side line list, the currently selected side lines are steam engine, steam airship, steam high school rail car, multi-tower gun, rigid suspension device.
And the Difference Engine just included in the list.
There are a total of ten civilization branches that can be selected in this Steam Age.
There are four options left.
"Master, what is this steam robot? It looks very interesting." Lan Lan caught a glimpse of the robot in the branch lines of more than [-] civilizations.
Tang Zheng's gaze moved upward, and finally settled on the steam I-type robot.
【Steam Type I Robot (Excellent)】
Attribute 1: It can replace manual completion of fine construction, material manufacturing, and maintenance of machinery
Attribute 2: Inherit your attributes and adapt them to work efficiency
Excellent special attribute: evolution (steam robots can evolve into models II, III, and the highest can evolve into robots of model V, and their abilities increase with evolution.)
Description: Steel shell, the core of civilization!
……
This is a good thing.
As the civilization of our own era becomes more and more advanced, the subsequent industrial chain will inevitably expand.
With these robots, it is possible to replace the shortage of manpower.
It might even be possible to create an industrial city.
