Chapter 782
The mining-steelmaking system that Henry works for has three sets in the entire northern border, two of which belong to the lord's mansion, and they also use fully automated mining equipment and alchemy dolls.
The other set of equipment was jointly funded by steel companies in the North.
They contracted several mines and then raised funds to buy a set of steelmaking blast furnace equipment to build their own mining-steelmaking system.
However, this system is different from the two sets under the name of the Lord's Mansion. They used a large number of workers to do automatic puppet work, resulting in relatively inefficient production.
So the monthly output of their production line is only 3,500 tons of steel, which is much lower than that of the fully automated production line.
Although Perficote has complained about this result, it is not intolerable. In addition, this itself will help stabilize social order, otherwise a large number of unemployed workers will be a very troublesome thing.
So she still accepted the reality that capitalists' production system has low production capacity.
But capitalists themselves seem to not accept this. After all, low productivity means they have to make less money, which is more uncomfortable than killing them.
It is precisely because of this that they are trying their best to increase their production capacity.
For this reason, they even adopted the three shift system proposed by Perficot, which means that workers work for eight hours per round and three shifts rotate.
This requires more workers and pay more salaries, but it has to be admitted that doing so can improve labor efficiency more effectively. The entire production system can also start work 24 hours a day, and maintain a high enough production efficiency, just like the two fully automated production systems under the name of the Lord's Mansion.
Although in this round, capitalists' cost expenditure increased by nearly one-third, and the capacity increase only reached 4,500 tons of steel per month, it is still much better than before.
These capitalists also understand what marginal effect is, so they agree that investment has not achieved greater capacity improvement.
Perficote naturally also accepted this result. After all, the three production systems can now produce 14,500 tons of steel in a month, and the annual output is almost 150,000 tons.
Although these increased steel production capacity cannot fully meet her needs to build two floating city modules, it can at least allow the two construction sites to construct at an efficiency of more than 70% of the expected construction speed.
In general, Perficote was satisfied with this.
While, during this period, the gods also did something, they were still peaceful overall.
In general, small things are constantly happening, big things are not.
Perficote showed great vigilance about this. After all, she was born in a military family. She could also do this little tactic of being tired or numbing the enemy and letting the enemy relax their vigilance.
This also made her feel very urgency. After increasing the construction speed of the floating city to the maximum that can be reached at the moment, Perficote plunged into the laboratory and wanted to make the main gun of the floating city.
This is the trump card used to kill gods in her design. In theory, it can cause enough damage to the main god with one blow.
But it is obvious that weapons of this level are not something that can be easily built.
Perficot was the first to think of it, of course, the train cannon.
This is the most powerful heavy artillery used by humans in the original world on land.
Especially the 800mm caliber Dora cannon used in World War II, which is a truly amazing land cruiser and steel behemoth. But for Perficote, the Dora cannon is somewhat unpractical.
Although the caliber is large and powerful, the speed of firing one round is too slow. It can fire up to several shells in an hour. This efficiency is OK to use it to remove the fortress in war. If you want to use it to kill the gods, it will be really difficult.
One shot cannot be killed, and the time of loading the second shot was already on the face.
So Perficote hopes to create a weapon with faster firing speed and greater power, and strive to kill a god with one blow.
At this time, the electromagnetic cannon she had used in the Battle of Langdon suddenly came to her eyes, especially the electromagnetic cannon that Perficote used to fire the thermostatic bomb was blessed by the God of War and turned into a terrifying war beast with its own soul.
Perficote, who was afraid of the influence of the blessing of the God of War, left it in Langton and handed it over to Sandriyong to seal it.
So long has passed, and now Perficote feels that he might have made another more powerful thing.
After all, it was a temporary work at that time, and the electromagnetic gun was somewhat rough.
When you think about it, re-draw the drawings, and optimize and upgrade the power of Cuiyulu, the design that was originally rough and made up has become more precise, and the low energy transmission efficiency has been improved, and the power of the entire cannon has a qualitative leap and improvement.
So according to the upgraded design drawing, Perficote first rolled a 600-caliber electromagnetic gun and planned to verify the technology.
The power of the cannon has been increased, and the power of the shell cannot be dropped.

Perficote originally wanted to try making a plasma shell, but after trying for a long time, although he successfully created a plasma, preservation was a big problem.
Simply put, this thing is extremely unstable. Unless it is rubbed and used immediately, it will all decay after being left there for three days.
And this is already the result of Perficote trying various means to stabilize it.
Before Perficote was treated, it was directly present and began to decay in less than a few minutes.
So she had to give up this kind of overly sci-fi shell type and instead study more pragmatic armor-piercing bombs and high-explosive bombs.
Fuji, who is developing rapidly in the world's weapons and equipment, after Perficot gave up the overly sci-fi plasma shells, the more realistic shells have sufficient configuration references.
For example, armor-piercing bullets, although steel needles are always criticized for not being damaged enough and not being damaged enough when hitting large targets, the armor-piercing bullets of this configuration are verified to be good.
So Perficote made a batch of 600-caliber armor-piercing bombs, intending to look for an ancient beast to verify the armor-piercing effect.
If you can penetrate it, you can cause damage. Even if the damage is a little lower, it is better than being unable to break armor.
And if you are lucky enough to penetrate the heart or head, this may also have the effect of killing one blow.
In particular, Perficote has improved the charging design of the electromagnetic gun and directly changed it to capacitor power supply. When necessary, it can quickly load and transmit by changing capacitors.
According to Perficote's calculations, 600-caliber electromagnetic guns can shoot 2-3 rounds in one minute if they are prepared in advance.
