Chapter 2083: Building a base
The meeting ended with this announcement.
At Cloud Peak, core members had the right to know, but when it came to actually doing so, they could only search for and purchase materials from the given list. The real technical issues had to be handled by Le Dayuan, Liu Zhenghong, and their respective laboratory members.
This time, Ye Zhongming imparted a great deal of knowledge. After learning that transmission consumed a large amount of Moonspan Gold, everyone valued these technologies even more.
The Cloud Peak King had just arrived in the cosmos, and his starting point was still very low, so he had many, many places needing money. Yet he used this hard-earned money to transmit these down. What reason did Cloud Peak people have not to cherish them?
So Liu Zhenghong and Le Dayuan, the couple, immediately set out to study these things. The former would work on refining Moonspan Gold, which was the foundation of all cosmic technology. The latter began a major overhaul of the laboratory and the recruitment of new members, even organizing large-scale project teams to study and absorb the knowledge Ye Zhongming had transmitted in segments.
This was also unavoidable. Earth's technology stagnated in the first few years of the post-apocalyptic era. Later, even though there was some development at Cloud Peak, it was also war-oriented; all technology served combat.
But these technologies and knowledge weren't like that. They were all things Earth didn't have, very profound, and some theories even had no continuation from Earth; they needed to be learned from the basics.
For evolved beings, the evolution of their bodies and brains made learning easier, yielding twice the result with half the effort. However, after all, there was too much knowledge they hadn't seen, hadn't thought of, or even couldn't understand temporarily, so 'chewing' on it was bound to require great effort and a lot of time.
The difficulty wasn't just learning the knowledge. The ultimate goal of learning this theoretical knowledge was to turn it into results, which required experiments. And experiments also needed various tools, parts, vessels, etc., all of which needed to be resolved.
