Chapter 703: A steam engine was also developed, which was used in the laboratory

When everyone saw someone driving a steam mining machine, they immediately boiled.

"Wocao, what kind of **** luck is this, even with a mechanical mining machine, we still rely on people to dig with a **** and a hoe!"

"Yeah, I'm so envious. In the future, most of our resources must be obtained from minerals! With mining machines, the mining efficiency will be much greater, and the development of the island will be much faster!"

"The little brother of the mining machine upstairs, you can ask for a price, as long as you are willing to shoot, I will pay as much as you want!"

"Thank you, I don't sell it! I still want the brother of the steam engine to make an offer!"

"Since everyone wants this steam engine, then I will reluctantly give it up and put it in the group, everyone will bid, and the one with the highest price will get it!"

At this time, the person who opened the steam engine suddenly said that he was going to shoot.

He set a base price of 100 cornerstones, and the brother with the mining machine in his hand immediately raised the price to a level that ordinary alliances would not buy.

"1000 cornerstones!"

"Wocao, you are crazy, you can raise it so high!"

"Hmph, the bidding rules don't say that you can't raise it so high all of a sudden. If you have a cornerstone, you can call it!"

"With such a wealth of money, our alliance still gave up. After all, we haven't opened anything to use this steam engine. It is estimated that we will eat ashes when we buy it."

"2000 cornerstones!"

"Is this all crazy? Or do you need steam engine equipment?"

"No matter what kind it is, anyway, this steam engine is not something we can touch, let's just watch the excitement!"

After half an hour of bidding, the first steam engine to be shown in public, the final transaction price was 5,100 cornerstones!

"More than 5,000 cornerstones, this must be a big force to make up so many cornerstones!"

"It's more expensive than the generator that the boss took out last night!"

"Speaking of generators, steam engines can be used for power generation. The principle of power generation is to allow wires to move in a magnetic field to generate current, and steam engines can continuously move wires!"

Xiao Yi watched them bid and did not participate.

One is because this is just a most common steam engine, and it is not worth buying with so many cornerstones at all.

The second is because I don't have any steam engine equipment.

The most important reason is that Xiao Yi feels that since so many people have provided relevant equipment, he believes that a large number of steam engines will be released soon, and there is no need for him to grab this first fresh.

Just as Xiao Yi thought, an hour after the transaction was completed, the group began to liven up again.

"Haha, I also made a drawing of a steam engine!"

"Lying Cao, I feel that the person who bought the steam engine just now is going to lose a lot!"

"Yeah, the second one appeared in such a short period of time, which means that the probability of opening it has increased. It seems that I also have the opportunity to drive a steam engine!"

Di Lintian, who had just asked someone to take pictures of this steam engine in the Yi Tian group, looked at another steam engine manufacturing picture in the group, and slammed the table down.

Originally, he thought that after the first steam engine appeared, it would appear in large quantities after a period of time. This was the time for him to accumulate advantages.

He really did not expect the second channel to appear so soon.

Qin Qinglong asked, "President, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do? Use the steam engine as soon as possible, even if it only has a few hours of advantage, we must make good use of it!" Di Lintian said helplessly.

Not long after the second steam engine exploded in the group, high-end items exploded again in the group.

"What day is it today, I actually opened this thing, [manufacturing drawing of a medium-sized steam engine] (B-class) *1."

"This is amazing. In this environment of the sea, it is more useful to have high-end ships!"

"The previous ships used manpower or wind power. With the steam engine, the speed of the ship against the wind will not be too slow!"

Now Xiao Yi is a little envious. Apart from yachts, the best ships in his hands are ironclad battleships, which are powered by advanced bison.

If it can be replaced by a steam engine, it may be faster.

In fact, what Xiao Yi didn't know was that the speed of a steam-type steamship is also very limited, which is similar to the speed of a sailboat when the wind is down.

The power of the steam engine is not strong enough!

The steam engine powered steamship just got rid of the dependence on the wind, which Xiao Yi's iron armored warship has already achieved!

"Islander, there are a lot of new things in the supplies box today!" Anyue sent a message to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi moved slightly in his heart and replied, "Bring all the new things over for me to see!"

After a while, Anyue came over with a pile of scrolls: "Island Master, they are all here!"

Xiao Yi nodded. After reading it, he was surprised to find that there were actually two steam engine manufacturing drawings.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yi immediately combined these two manufacturing drawings with a super synthesizer.

"Obtained materials: steam engine manufacturing diagram (C-level) *1."

It was used at the island monument, and Xiao Yi made one directly after seeing the raw materials.

Looking at the steam engine in front of him, Xiao Yi said that he didn't understand it at all. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, picked up the steam engine and walked to the laboratory.

After coming to the laboratory, Xiao Yi put the steam engine on the table and said, "Can you do research on this, such as researching its template drawings? It would be even better if some improvements could be made!"

"Of course there is no problem!" A robot came over and replied.

Hearing the intelligent robot's answer, Xiao Yi said happily: "Okay, then this thing will be handed over to you, study it carefully!"

"Yes, Master! Will the research on smokeless powder stop?" the robot asked.

"Huh? No, get the smokeless powder first, and then study this!" Xiao Yi was stunned and replied.

Smokeless gunpowder has already been researched, so we can't give up halfway!

What's more, this steam engine doesn't have any other party that needs it, so there's no hurry at all!

"I didn't expect the laboratory to be so useful!" Xiao Yi secretly said, "If I find something good in the future, I can let the laboratory study it first, then I can have its template, and then I can make it infinitely!"

"Islander, the dwarf country Ross is here!"

After Xiao Yi saw this information, he immediately walked to the resort.

"Loss, what kind of wind brought you here today?" Xiao Yi said happily when he saw Ross in the bar.

"I came here today because I was entrusted by the king, and I hope to get an accurate answer from you." Ross said with a slightly serious face.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly and asked, "What answer?"

"It's the exact answer about our purchase of the island, one is the price, and the other is when to trade!" Ross replied.
