Unsurprisingly, they possess at least the ability to control electronics.
The next step in the experiment is to further control the power.
With the help of lightning elemental power, this step is progressing very quickly.
Once this step is completed, the electric motor will be lit, and the electrical age will begin.
There is also a research and development branch focusing on the application of steam turbines to ships.
Can't all of this be used to make empty promises to Liyue?
After finalizing the general direction with Beidou, the remaining time was to wait for unloading. Taking this opportunity, Jiang Ming also gained a deeper understanding of the situation in Liyue.
While playing the game, Jiang Ming became quite interested in the country of Liyue.
Without a doubt, Liyue is a Frankenstein's monster in the history of Earth.
The skin of ancient Eastern culture was stitched together with the core of the modern British Empire.
Which ancient Eastern dynasty, under the leadership of a bourgeois parliament composed of merchants, was a commerce- and maritime power?
Even the dynasties that valued commerce and maritime trade the most were ultimately still ruled by feudal lords.
In particular, the existence of Beidou's armed fleet is highly independent, not entirely under the jurisdiction of Liyue Harbor, and has a close personal relationship with Ningguang of Tianquan. With Qixing's permission, it can also become part of the Thousand Rocks Army's armed forces when necessary.
This is highly consistent with the "privateing licenses" issued during the Age of Exploration, where flying the St. George flag meant the Royal Navy, while flying the skull and crossbones flag meant the Royal Navy.
—Although Beidou generally doesn't engage in robbery.
And the real Liyue in the Teyvat world, according to Beidou's description, doesn't seem to be too good either.
The eight major families of Liyue have infiltrated every corner of the eight clans of Liyue. Before Ningguang came to power, the lives of the lower classes in Liyue were getting worse and worse.
Of course, even in the worst times, as long as you put in the effort to work, you can still get a basic meal and won't starve to death. It's still many times better than a completely hellish place like Inazuma.
After Ningguang took office, she improved some welfare measures, and the overall living standards of the lower classes in Liyue improved somewhat.
All she could do was try her best to improve the lives of these people at the bottom of society.
She herself used to sell things barefoot at Yaoguang Beach back then, and she doesn't want others to repeat her experience.
She's the kind of person who, having gotten soaked in the rain herself, wants to hold an umbrella for others.
This is BeiDou's assessment of Ningguang.
—But for some reason, no matter how hard Ningguang tried, she couldn't stop more people from sliding into poverty.
The environment at the grassroots level has improved, but the overall living standards of the people of Liyue Harbor are declining.
Even Ningguang herself couldn't understand why this was.
But Jiang Ming could understand it.
These things are rarely recorded on Teyvat, but they are common on Earth.
It seems that the reason Liyue has been able to operate smoothly until now is not because the capitalists' greed has become too outrageous, but more likely because the Emperor is keeping things under control.
After all, the Rock King Emperor isn't some kind of artificially stupid genius like the Thunder General; if he really caused any major trouble, it wouldn't be dignified.
I wonder how much of a relationship she has with Gan Yu, the steadfast secretary of Yuehai Pavilion.
If the immortals are maintaining this in secret, does that mean that there might still be a shadow government in Liyue?
This is an unavoidable issue if we want to cooperate deeply with Liyue.
Chapter 27 Industrialization, Initiated!
After seeing off Beidou and the delegation, Jiang Ming once again suggested to Xin Hai that they invite Xavier from Tashasha over.
After he learned about the situation from Beidou, he felt that maybe we could also try to cross thunderstorms.
According to Beidou's description, the biggest problem her fleet encountered while crossing the thunderstorm area was the rough sea conditions.
Although Jiang Ming didn't know how it compared to the legendary sea state of level 10, anything that Beidou described as terrible couldn't be too good.
BeiDou did not encounter the problem of thunderstorms.
They have permission to pass, and thunderstorms will not attack the Beidou fleet.
Jiang Ming looked at the pass; there was nothing special about it.
If it aligns with the Genshin Impact storyline, then the thunderstorm is simply an automated program of the Thunder General.
Later, due to the termination of eternity and the change of commands, Thunder General had a bug, which also caused problems with the Thunderstorm program.
If we look at it from this perspective, then the pass is probably just an authorization or identification code; the Thunderstorm program will cancel the attack if it detects its presence.
Copying the pass is not feasible for the time being. Beidou doesn't have the time, and things involving deities are somewhat complicated and difficult to handle.
Therefore, Jiang Ming focused on combating the thunderstorms.
Are lightning rods and Faraday cages effective against thunderstorms outside Inazuma?
Jiang Ming had the holder of the Lightning God's Eye cooperate in an experiment. Natural lightning and lightning attacks induced and guided by lightning elemental power can be attracted by lightning rods and protected by Faraday cages.
Only lightning attacks guided by elemental force can circumvent these two defenses.
Of course, this will increase the energy consumption of lightning attacks and slow down the attack speed.
So the question is, was the thunderstorm around Inazuma triggered or guided, or was it an attack guided throughout?
Considering that thunderstorms are an automated process, it is more likely the former.
When the program detects an unauthorized object in a thunderstorm area, it manipulates the lightning element to guide a lightning attack.
However, it is highly likely that the program only guides the lightning to the moment the attack lands, leaving the rest to nature, rather than guiding the lightning to hit the target throughout the entire process.
Because under normal circumstances, the latter is unnecessary.
It's like a cannonball; you aim and adjust the parameters before firing, and then it's up to gravity after you fire.
Moreover, this program is most likely not a flexible or highly regarded program.
When the Thunder General in the story was bugged and in complete chaos, he didn't even realize that the Thunderstorm program was malfunctioning.
Even under normal circumstances, General Thunder might not notice the specific operation of the program.
Otherwise, how could Zhu Zi have managed to escape?
So is it possible to use a Faraday cage to allow ships to sail out of a thunderstorm?
Worth a try!
However, wooden ships are definitely not feasible; they need metal ships, or at least ironclad warships.
The engineers at the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences understand shipbuilding technology.
But this is Inazuma, not Fontaine.
The power system must be replaced.
The entire power system needs to be replaced with one centered around a steam turbine.
This is a big project.
The Ocean Science Research Institute is currently understaffed.
Whether from the Genshin Impact storyline or according to the feedback from his Fontaine engineers and researchers, Xavier is currently the only senior technician in Inazuma and has the title of "Great Inventor".
Bringing Xavier here will definitely speed up the research process significantly.
Xin Hai felt somewhat helpless about this.
She had already sent someone to invite Xavier.
However, Xavier believed that if the Mikage Furnace Core wasn't maintained, it would explode and blow the entire Tadashi Sand into the sky.
Out of a sense of responsibility, he insisted on staying at Tabusa to maintain and improve the Yuying furnace core and prevent it from exploding.
Even when faced with the shogunate's endless and impassable procedures.
This left Jiang Ming somewhat helpless.
How was he supposed to explain to Xavier that Alice had already foreseen this and modified the thing in advance?
Jiang Ming could only have the Fontaine people in the Ocean Science Academy write a joint letter to Xavier as colleagues, and then Jiang Ming did his best to explain the safety of the Shadow Furnace Core, and then affix the official seal of the Coral Palace.
Hopefully, this will convince the great inventor to bring his team over quickly.
Then Jiang Ming believed that now that a certain understanding had been reached with the shogunate, the external environment of Haigi Island had become relatively stable in the short term, and internal construction could begin.
First, there is the large number of refugees currently residing on Haegeisho Island.
These people did not engage in production work, but Haiqi Island consistently paid a huge amount of financial expenditure to provide them with food and drink, and also had to send officials from the Coral Palace to manage them.
Solving the problem of these refugees is now an urgent matter for Coral Palace.
Once industrialization begins on Haizhi Island, these people will have a place to go.
Build roads, build houses, build factories.
It's the same old work-for-relief program; the logic is actually quite simple.
They purchased the labor of unemployed people at low prices and used it for various local construction projects.
One party receives cheap labor, and the other party receives necessities for survival—a specific form of exchange.
With the newly built steam turbine and rudimentary power system, we can establish an industrial system on Haizhi Island, produce high-value-added products, earn Mora in foreign trade, build a positive economic system, and avoid going bankrupt by supporting refugees.
We will build factories on a large scale, increase production on a large scale, and greatly improve productivity.
Thanks to the scholars of the Order of the Church for developing cement so early on.
Although he didn't know why, such a useful thing was left unused and not promoted by the Order of the Church after it was made, the Sumerians continued to live in wooden houses, and there was no trace of cement application in other countries.
But this just happened to benefit Jiang Ming.
After conducting a comprehensive survey of various aspects of Haegeido Island, the "Short-Term Industrial Development Plan for Haegeido Island" was released.
It didn't use five years, or even a specific date.
Teyvat has a great technological foundation and is making breakthroughs at an incredible pace. They even have atomic-level printing like the Eye of God. It's hard to imagine that even a year could keep up with the speed of technological breakthroughs, let alone five years.
He has made many adjustments in just a month or two.
