1296 The Master Engineer's Mission
“Hu…hu…”
The super-powered boy lying on the bed made a very rhythmic snoring sound, and his flat chest fell.
Seeing that Zhen seemed to be asleep, Lin Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and looked at the large number of new documents piled up in front of the desk. The smile that was about to appear on his face disappeared.
"It's so troublesome." He complained.
A large number of government documents still appeared directly in the young master's safe house, and many people left their opinions in the mailbox in front of Yanfeng Palace were also piled on the right hand side, which doubled the amount of information Lin Chi had to process.
Just like a poor student suddenly faced a lot of exercises and test papers. He has always been very salty and was unable to adapt to such high-intensity work for a while.
However, in order to win this game, this level of effort is also very necessary.
Lin Chi sat at the desk and began to flip through the documents. Most of the contents were all chores and trivial matters.
Just as he was speeding up his reading speed and was looking up the files in ten lines, the door of the young master's room suddenly rang.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
The knockers have always been very gentle. This is the first time Lin Chi has heard such a rough knock. It seems that the other party must have something urgent:
"Who?" Lin Chi asked.
"Lord, it's me..." The craftsman's voice sounded from outside the door, and he was still gasping for breath, as if he had just run a thousand meters.
Realizing that the other party might have something urgent or something major discovery, Lin Chi immediately became interested and opened the door and asked, "What's wrong?"
——Is it because those workers are extremely efficient and have already dug up a passage to the Kursk military factory?
When Lin Chi's heartbeat increased slightly when he thought of seeing advanced Soviet weapons soon. Two seconds later, he saw the engineer holding a rusty watch in his hand and shaking in front of his eyes:
"Look at this, I found it from the entrance to the ruins."
The engineer's face, which had no obvious expression for most of the time, showed a smile that was enough to melt chocolate. This young man, now seems to be a child who has found a treasure, is showing off his treasure to the "young master" who is also a child:
"What do you think is this?" The master of engineering kept a serious eye: "You can never guess the purpose of this ancient relic..."
"Oh, you're going to talk about this when you look for me."
Looking at the "mysterious ancient relics" held in the engineer's hand, Lin Chi's originally excited mood suddenly became cold: "This is a watch."
"What's the hand?" The engineer didn't understand.
"I have seen an introduction to this thing." Lin Chi casually made up a reason and told the purpose of the "mysterious equipment" to the engineer who was smiling and froze on his face:
"A watch is something worn on the wrist to measure time. The twelve scales on it represent twelve hours."
"Twelve...small hours..."
Trying to digest the words I had never heard of before, the engineer thought for a moment and asked, "Does the twelve 'hour' synthesize a 'big time'?"
Listening to the other party's completely unreliable guess, Lin Chi resisted the urge to vomit blood and continued to explain: "According to the ancient timing method, a day is divided into twenty-four hours. The thickest pointer on the dial needs to turn two times before the end of the day. People now have forgotten the precise timing method of ancient times, but the concept of 'heaven' remains."
"Twenty-four hours... two rounds...one day..."
The engineer stared at the dial with a dull look and asked softly: "The other two pointers are..."
"The two pointers are used to measure the time more accurately." Lin Chi explained: "The thinner one is used to indicate the minutes, an hour is divided into sixty minutes, and the thinner one is used to remember seconds, one minute is equal to sixty seconds."
"That's right..."
After listening to Lin Chi's explanation, the expression on the engineer's face was frozen, as if he had seen the door to a new world.
Even this scholar who has been studying various mechanical equipment has never thought that time could be measured so accurately. If ancient people could really be accurate to this level, that is to say...
"The ancient residents... were the gods descending to earth?" The engineer murmured to himself.
"No, I know them a little bit, and they are just ordinary people." Lin Chi patted the other party's shoulder comfortably: "According to my inference, there are more advanced ancient equipment hidden in the ruins. So I don't need to say more about what to do next?"
Hearing this, the engineer's body temperature seemed to have risen a little bit. He slowly raised his head, and the expression on his face returned to his usual calmness:
"I understand." He said word by word.
His tone was extremely firm and loud, with a simple response, but with an unprecedented sense of strength and mission.
For this man who devotes his life to engineering research, being able to develop new equipment and witness the birth of more advanced technologies is the meaning of his life.
And now, the engineer seemed to see the golden treasure house gate, waiting for his opening.
——How advanced is the ancient technology hidden in that "agricultural product warehouse"? Can technology that can change the entire Yanfeng City or even the entire continent be born?
When he thought of himself about to witness history, the engineer's body began to tremble slightly again.
He lowered his head, stared at the young master's pretty face, and said slowly:
"Please order the excavation of the canal is suspended. I will use all my hands on ancient ruins. I have a premonition that the ancient technology buried beneath can change the whole world!"
"Accurate." Lin Chi smiled and said, "I also have some understanding of this. Don't forget to notify me immediately after you dig out the passage."
"Affect the order."
With the permission of the lord, the engineer master was also unambiguous and immediately turned around and took a big step toward the outside of the Yanfeng Palace.
Watching the man's figure disappear, Lin Chi took out his pistol from his backpack and looked at it, with a playful smile on his face:
——Maybe, now is the time for Yanfeng City to "Pengle Technology"!
The "ancient ruins" buried underground hide equipment beyond this era.
Lin Chi didn't know whether the other players discovered this secret, but no matter whether those guys discovered it or not, he had to take action immediately.
If you upgrade your technology first, you may have a situation where "modern army crushes ancient soldiers". If you wait until the "technology tree" of all territories is completely modernized, war will enter a modern form!
"Come and compete faster? The little brother of Zhanhen City."
Lin Chi laughed and closed the door of the safe room again.
