Chapter 1313 Transport Truck
Under Luo Ji's suggestion, the Academy of Science and Technology that produced the results quickly increased its quarterly research funding by 20%.
In this regard, Xu Jing and other members of the Academy of Science and Technology are naturally more motivated.
Soon he built the first car of his Wanjie civilization.
Of course, a more accurate statement should be a transport truck.
For the current Wanjie civilization, everything has to be put into the military field first.
Can two-seater and four-seater family cars be useful in the military field?
What Luo Ji needs now is a transport truck that can transport a large number of logistical supplies and heavy ordnance in the wild! This is what is valuable to him.
Here, by the way, it is worth mentioning that Ye Qingxuan's business civilization has just unlocked a new ability item called 'Battlefield Merchant' some time ago.
The ability of this new item can be said to be quite simple and rude. In short, it can be traded without being affected by the combat state!
According to the limitations of the original system, players are completely unable to perform any trading operations in the battle state.
However, Ye Qingxuan's commercial civilization broke this restriction with the special project of this "battlefield merchant".
Relying on the advantage of being able to trade emergency supplies for players in combat status, she can say that she has made a lot of money recently, not only civilization points and development resources, but even some rare items that cannot be bought under normal circumstances. Got a lot from her.
And this silver-level truck design was also obtained from a player who was in a state of battle and was in urgent need of supplies.
At a really critical juncture, I believe that many players will be happy to exchange these props for some life-saving resources.
And it is precisely because of this that Ye Qingxuan has seized the infinite business opportunities and said that she is a daily gold medalist, which is probably an understatement.
At the same time, the entire reputation of the 'mysterious businessman' is getting louder and louder.
Now within the silver rank, many players are eager to sign a trade agreement with this unknown 'mysterious businessman'.
Although the starting price is black, for players who are at the juncture of life and death, as long as they can save their lives, it is cost-effective.
Now back to Wanjie Civilization, the first test of the transport truck was placed outside the city.
Since the operation method is quite difficult for people who have never been in contact with vehicles at all, the driving task is handed over to the people from the Academy of Science and Technology.
Even Luo Ji was just watching from the side. He actually knew how to drive, but due to his personality, he was not very interested in driving and cars.
It is always said that men love cars, that cars are men's wives or something. Luo Ji always scoffed at such remarks that directly affected all men, cars? what is that? I like warships, tanks, and bombers. What's wrong?
The test of the transport truck went very smoothly. There is obviously no problem with using it to transport large ordnance weapons such as cannons. Anyway, it must be faster than a carriage.
After that, Luo Ji undoubtedly planned to build a production factory, which would be dedicated to the production of vehicles and put them into military use.
To this end, it is naturally necessary to confirm with Xu Jing the issues of resource consumption and production efficiency.
The final result proves that, according to the current situation, it is impossible to carry out large-scale and high-efficiency production, because of some technical problems, it cannot reach the level of assembly line production.
Also, this driver has to take some time to develop.
Luo Ji also understood this.
In any case, first start to build a special production plant, and then start production.
Soldiers can continue to ride horses, and transport trucks can greatly speed up the delivery of military resources and ordnance weapons. Under the premise that expeditions are required, the value of transport trucks can naturally be greatly reflected.
Things here should be arranged quickly, whether it is the training of drivers or the production of transport trucks.
During this period, such a big move naturally inevitably attracted the attention of the people.
Even many businessmen have clearly felt the value of transport trucks.
But in fact, under the premise that the military is not enough, it is obviously still early to put it into civilian use.
No matter what, he has to wait until he finishes this all-out war.
However, things like traffic rules, signs, traffic lights, and zebra crossings can be written down on the plan first.
So as not to have to toss a lot of things at once, and get yourself in a hurry.
As I mentioned earlier, Luo Ji can drive. During the summer vacation, he temporarily went to take the driver's license test. At the same time, where he worked during the summer vacation, he would be asked to drive and deliver goods from time to time.
So he still has a good idea of the traffic rules.
I thought of one, wrote one, and it didn't take much time to write dozens of them, and the pattern of the sign board was also roughly drawn. It can be said that it went very smoothly.
After some time passed, the construction of the production plant successfully triggered a construction project.
Without hesitation, Luo Ji spent a sum of points to directly point that item to Level 5, in order to improve the manufacturing efficiency of transport trucks.
The driver's candidate is also directly selected from the army.
Due to the temporary limited availability of finished transport trucks, most drivers can only temporarily learn in writing, and then take turns to perform actual driving operations.
During this period, Luo Ji discovered that the goblin soldiers were surprisingly good at operating this type of equipment.
They learn the fastest and drive with ease.
The only trouble is that the seats and cab have to be adjusted slightly according to their size.
However, none of this matters.
Anyway, they don't have an assembly line factory yet, and making some adjustments is just a small problem.
Before winter, the first military transport convoy of Wanjie Civilization was officially formed.
As for this convoy, Luo Ji naturally planned to give priority to the rear support for the Southern Expedition Army.
Loaded with military supplies, the transport convoy drove along the smooth road to the Elf Province in the south.
Here, I have to mention that although transport trucks also emit exhaust gas, this level is obviously not comparable to that of steam trains, which is within the acceptable range of elves.
At least so far, the people of the elves have not launched any protests.
This discovery is very important. Considering it from this point of view, he should be able to use some small and medium-sized vehicles as the main mode of transportation in the south before more advanced and pollution-free large-scale civilian transportation vehicles are produced.
Thinking of this, Luo Ji resolutely flipped out his own development plan, and then made notes and marks quite seriously.
So far, this matter has been officially put on the agenda by him...
