Chapter 161 The Industrial Age

The item description simply states...

This is a device that can harvest mature crops in front of it.

"A description in just one sentence..."

At this moment, Yang Qinyu looked at this thing, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she was thinking about it with great distress.

"This mod, despite adding hundreds or even thousands of complex blocks and mechanical parts, doesn't have even the slightest bit of a tutorial for beginners?"

Yang Qinyu couldn't help but mentally rant.

"It's like giving you a bunch of space shuttle parts, but without even a blueprint, and then telling you to build a rocket."

"What's the difference between this and not telling you any operations at the beginning, only telling you that the essence of playing Minecraft is digging blocks, and then kicking you directly into the End and making you kill the Ender Dragon alone?"

But despite her complaints, Yang Qinyu knew that complaining was useless.

The greatest fun of this game lies in figuring out and researching things out on your own when you encounter problems that don't have a walkthrough.

"I can only rely on myself now."

So, on this afternoon, only Yang Qinyu's lonely figure could be seen by the farm.

She is here studying this mechanical dynamics all by herself.

She kept flipping through the encyclopedia, looking at the various obscure information about the newly added module blocks.

Suddenly, her gaze fixed on a block called "Axial Chassis".

[Straight-line chassis: Can be combined into a sturdy moving structure. When used with slime balls, other blocks can be firmly attached to it and moved along with the chassis.]

"This is it."

Without hesitation, she immediately began assembling the parts.

She carefully laid out the straight base first.

Then, to cover the width of the farmland, she arranged these axial chassis in a neat row, more than a dozen squares wide.

Next, the most crucial step is coming.

She took out the slime ball that drops from hitting slimes from her backpack.

She smeared these slime balls onto one side of the long chassis.

"It's applied..."

Then, she took a deep breath and used the [Power Harvester] to firmly attach them row by row to the chassis covered in slime balls.

With the sound of blocks being placed, a mechanical device consisting of more than a dozen powered harvesters arranged side by side has begun to take shape on the railway track.

As she watched the machine gradually take shape in her hands, it was almost close to the state she had envisioned.

Instead of feeling relieved, she fell into deep confusion.

"No, I feel like something crucial is missing."

Yang Qinyu took two steps back, carefully examining the harvesting machine, her mind racing with simulations.

"With the chassis and the harvester in place, the machine will move forward as soon as it's turned on, and it will harvest all the wheat."

"But where did the harvested wheat go?"

Yang Qinyu suddenly slapped her forehead, realizing what had happened.

"Yeah, I was really blinded by the mechanics. This is a game, not reality. The items that are cut off will fall to the ground as debris."

"The collection system, the most crucial collection system."

"They were so focused on building the harvesting system that they forgot about the core collection system. The harvester simply doesn't have a place to load the boxes."

She quickly searched through the item catalog, and finally, her gaze settled on a block labeled "Mobile Storage Interface".

[Mobile storage interface: When two interfaces are in very close proximity, automatic transfer of items between mobile machinery and fixed containers can be achieved.]

Yang Qinyu was overjoyed and was about to start synthesizing the components.

As a result, an embarrassing thing happened. She opened her backpack and looked at her empty bag, then sighed helplessly.

"I used up all my materials building the chassis and harvester. This module is so resource-intensive..."

There's no way around it; as the saying goes, even a clever cook can't cook without rice.

In order to complete the machine, Yang Qinyu had to temporarily put aside what she was doing and go back into the mine shaft below the base.

To pursue my dream, I have to go out and mine for a while first.

Just an hour later.

Yang Qinyu quickly synthesized the crucial [Mobile Storage Interface] from the various materials she had just smelted in the furnace and returned to the farmland.

She immediately threw herself into the final assembly.

She placed the box on top of the harvester.

Then, one of the removable storage ports was carefully installed on the side of this massive machine.

Next, she placed a fixed box at the starting point of the railway track and another mobile storage interface next to the box, aligning the two interfaces precisely.

everything's ready.

Finally, to ensure the machine could run perfectly, it underwent several more hours of repeated fine-tuning...

at last.

The first truly automated farmland harvester has been perfectly completed.

At this moment, Yang Qinyu was standing on the edge of the farmland.

Looking at this somewhat rugged-looking machine, she felt an indescribable surge of excitement.

"The theory is perfect, now..."

Yang Qinyu took a deep breath and murmured to herself.

"It's time to witness a miracle, give it a try."

She then walked toward the lever at the start of the track that controlled the start of the entire machine.

She gripped the lever.

"The Industrial Age Begins."

Then, she pressed down hard on the lever.

"Boom!"

Then, under Yang Qinyu's gaze.

The massive machine started moving, smoothly traveling along the straight railway track and rushing directly towards the front of the farmland.

The dozen or so power harvesters installed at the front of the machine immediately started running at high speed, their sharp blades cutting through everything in their path.

The mature wheat was harvested cleanly and efficiently by this powered harvester.

Vast fields of wheat have fallen.

In the game's setting, the harvested wheat and seeds did not fall to the ground, but were directly sucked into the large box hanging above the machine.

Crops that have just been planted and have not yet sprouted are simply swept over by the harvester.

The seeds were not damaged in any way; they are still growing.

"It was a success."

She followed beside the machine, watching it rapidly sweep across the vast farmland.

What would normally require dozens of NPCs working hard for an hour to harvest a wheat field was completely shorn clean in less than three minutes by this machine.

When the machine reached the end of the track, it triggered a reversal signal and reversed back.

The machine stopped precisely at the initial starting point.

Chapter 162 The Era of Full Automation

The moment the machine came to a complete stop, the portable storage interface mounted on the side of the machine perfectly aligned with the interface next to the fixed box on the ground.

The freshly harvested wheat in the box at the back of the machine was transported into the main box like flowing water.

Yang Qinyu rushed forward and yanked open the fixed box on the ground.

Looking inside the box, each compartment was instantly filled to the brim with wheat.

She watched this scene and fell into deep thought.

It's not just joy, but more of a sense of awe at the vast potential for the future.

"The success of automated farms is not simply due to harvesting a few more crops of wheat..."

Yang Qinyu keenly realized that this ordinary moment truly marked the emergence of a great era.

"Power has replaced human labor, and tedious, repetitive work has been perfectly taken over by machines."

"This means that the era of mass production of machines has truly arrived in this game."

Without hesitation, she immediately activated the system's built-in recording function.

In fact, her keen professional instincts led her to start recording as soon as she began the final step of assembly.

She directly exported the complete recording of the machine's startup and harvesting process, as well as the final automatic data transfer to the database, directly from the system.

Offline.

Back in the luxurious apartment in the real world.

Yang Qinyu skillfully opened the editing software on her computer.

She cut out the mining and tedious trial-and-error parts, condensing the video into a short three-minute clip.

Editing complete!

Then, she decisively opened Douyin (TikTok).
