153: Chapter 153 The Electrical Age, The Sci-Fi Qin Empire

【Detected Chariot Factory building, Great Qin Heavy Industry trait triggered!】

【Farm】 >>> 【Great Qin Cultivation Base】

【Great Qin Cultivation Base possesses fully automated cultivation pipelines; it only needs crop-related information to achieve fully automated, high-efficiency cultivation】

【Prerequisite Technology: Electromagnetics, Power Generation Principles, Computer Principles, Automation Technology, Artificial Intelligence】

Fully automated cultivation base!?

Su Yang touched his chest, glad he had prepared in advance, otherwise he would have been shocked again.

He hadn't expected that the agriculture of the Great Qin would be just like the mining industry, jumping straight to fully automated technology.

One had to know that the various details of cultivating crops were far more numerous than mining; this kind of fully automated technology was more complex and difficult than mining.

However, once realized, the effects of a fully automated farm in all aspects would be better than a human-operated farm.

Setting aside production capacity, the biggest difference between fully automated and human labor lies in production stability.

Factors like fatigue, bad moods, and the necessity for rest all affect production capacity.

Even the exploited corporate slaves in modern society can still sleep for 6 hours a day.

Machines are different; they can operate continuously 24 hours a day, and as long as the energy supply is uninterrupted, they can continue indefinitely.

Take the mines in the Spain territory, for example: a Level 2 mine, operating at full capacity with 200 people, has a theoretical daily output of 200 units of coal.

This output is actually higher than the Level 2 mines of the Qin Dynasty, but this is only under theoretical conditions.

First of all, without Su Yang's protection, Spain could not spare so many people to mine just to maintain its military strength.

Moreover, once a battle occurs, the miner units will basically stop mining and rush to the arsenal, ready to pick up guns and go to the front line at any time, rather than producing around the clock.

Furthermore, these miners are people with spirits; continuous work will cause their energy to drop, leading to a decrease in output.

In summary, automated and mechanized facilities are far better than pure human labor.

Therefore, when Su Yang saw that the farm was fully automated, he was extremely excited.

The only thing was that the farm had a lot of prerequisite technologies—five whole new technologies he had never seen before.

Su Yang took the opportunity to switch to the Thousand Mechanism Tower panel and invested resources to upgrade the Thousand Mechanism Tower directly.

Resources were invested, and the Thousand Mechanism Tower upgraded with a rumble.

Just like the lords residence, this upgrade of the Thousand Mechanism Tower further expanded its footprint.

And this upgrade gave the Thousand Mechanism Tower another tower body.

This meant that the Level 5 Thousand Mechanism Tower could support 3 technologies being researched simultaneously!

Su Yang opened the Thousand Mechanism Tower panel and entered the technology resources tab.

A series of new technologies appeared before his eyes.

And these technologies all revolved around one thing—electricity.

Opening the electricity branch, a series of upgrades flooded Su Yang's panel.

This was just the part related to electricity; so many other technologies had already appeared before even considering the rest.

Sure enough, just as he had expected, the Level 5 Main Base is all about technological upgrades.

The sheer volume of technologies appearing gave Su Yang quite a shock.

Compared to previous technologies, the technologies entering the field of electricity were clearly more profound.

After all, this was an epoch-making discovery that initiated humanity's Second Industrial Revolution!

Su Yang suppressed his excitement and carefully analyzed these technologies.

First were Electromagnetics and Power Generation Principles; there was no need to say, these had to be researched.

Without these two, there would be no vast power system.

Su Yang focused his mind and first selected these two technologies.

【command points - 27,000】

【Technology: Electromagnetics researching...】

【Remaining time: 1d, 15h】

【Technology: Power Generation Principles researching...】

【Remaining time: 1d, 5h】

Following these two technologies were the High-Efficiency Electromagnetic Tower and the High-Energy Capacitor.

Although their descriptions sounded flashy, they were actually just wires and batteries improved by Great Qin Heavy Industry.

High-Energy Capacitor went without saying; it was just an oversized battery that could store electrical energy without loss.

The technology for the High-Efficiency Electromagnetic Tower was even more profound; compared to wires that required physical connections to be effective,

The Electromagnetic Tower did not need physical connections; it could transmit power to anywhere within the area through electromagnetic induction.

Large-scale wireless power supply—this was technology that only appeared in sci-fi movies!

With the development of the territory, Su Yang felt that the technology of the Great Qin was becoming increasingly sci-fi.

At this rate, in the Late Stage, wouldn't they really end up building some kind of zulong warship!
