A month after catching Smet, Cheng Pan brought this Western wizard to the machinery factory in Huangzhou territory. Today, the No. 1 Machinery Factory No. 1 is not a workshop, both the workers and the area of ​​the Huangzhou No. 1 Machinery Factory is no longer a workshop. Three thousand people work here, and a series of advanced tools such as four-wheeled carriage production lines, pot-cam machine production lines, steam tractor production groups, etc. In recent years, with the improvement of steel quality, the types of machine tools in the machinery factory have also begun to increase explosively. Ten major categories of machine tools such as lathes, drilling machines, grinding machines, and milling machines have begun to distinguish them. Moreover, each major category is divided into subcategories, and the generation of these machine tools is specially designed and manufactured by craftsmen in actual processing according to their needs. This is of great help to the machinery manufacturing industry.

The reason why Cheng Pan brought Smet here was because Cheng Pan valued one of his notebooks, the mechanical clock. The timers used in Cheng Pan's factory are hourglass, incense burners and water drip machines, which are very inconvenient. Cheng Pan once read the principles of mechanical clocks online and remembered a few transmissions. But Cheng Pan was not superman at that time and could not remember every structure. But far away in Europe, a public clock appeared in 1335, and Italian monks built the clock tower in this way. The error of this clock tower was within a few dozen minutes a day. Cheng Pan's current conditions for building clocks are far better than those of Europe, and all parts are made of steel. This was impossible with such low productivity in Europe. The current steelmaking technology in Europe is far inferior to that of China today, let alone the converter steelmaking method in Cheng Pan's territory at this time. However, Cheng Pan's watchmaking career was still not smooth.

Nowadays, clocks in Europe still use pendulum-type energy release, while Cheng Pan adopts a hairspring as an elastic potential energy release mechanism. This is what left the deepest impression on Cheng Pan in the online mechanical clock structure diagram. The hairspring is a roll of elastic metal sheets that look like mosquito coils. It is widely present in various watch instruments. Curious students can smash the pressure gauge to find this thing. The structure proposed by Cheng Pan is very advanced, which amazed Smeat. This structure can only be used in Cheng Pan's territory, and the reason is the yield of qualified steel. This structure is too advanced compared to the pendulum-bench. The original pendulum-bench structure has limitations and cannot be used on a boat that was originally bumpy and swaying. The hairspring can avoid this problem.

Of course, during the manufacturing process, this hairspring alone consumes dozens of manganese-added spring steel. It is considered qualified. All gear parts were calibrated by craftsmen many times, and a large number of unqualified parts were eliminated. Finally, the No. 1 clock was manufactured. This large table with a diameter of one meter has an error within ten seconds per day (sundial calibration). The overall feeling is full of metal. Once this object is out of the territory, the process of strictly observing the processing time is greatly improved. A large number of drips and hourglass in the steel plant are eliminated. The productivity of the entire territory is moving towards a higher standard.

Although the cost is huge, Cheng Pan thinks it is worth it. Everything is for the sake of standardization. Since the long, heavy and volume have been standardized, the last shortcoming of time has been made up by the mechanical clock.

Cheng Pan established a mechanical group specializing in the manufacturing of clocks and watches in the territory. Bell towers were established in major factories in the territory. After Cheng Pan let go, watchmakers kept summarizing their experience. Some of Cheng Pan's mistakes were overturned. The most obvious thing was that the material of the hairspring. The craftsmen in the territory found that the specific proportion of brass was better than spring steel. Moreover, compared with the difficulty of manufacturing spring steel, the electrolytic refined copper production technology in the territory was already very mature. A large amount of refined copper was made, and after matching, it was easy to obtain brass of excellent texture.

As for Smet's ending of spending the rest of his life on the uninhabited island after completing this job, he gained freedom, but Cheng Pan did not arrange any administrative positions for him. After all, the ability of mental hypnosis is too bt. If he is put into the system, he might be a role like Yuli.

Cheng Pan arranged him to the Evolution Group. As for technology leaks, Cheng Pan didn't care at all. Compared with the protagonists who traveled through the Republic of China during the Republic of China, he could bring China to the top of the world when China was far behind the West. Cheng Pan is in an era now, China has the dominance. In terms of population, China is much better as a unified group than Europe divided into more than a dozen ethnic groups by topography. Moreover, the powerful Black Death will harvest a large number of people in Europe in a year. Cheng Pan's forces in the industrial revolution have no reason to grow slowly than Europe.

Moreover, the system in Europe at this time was a completely poisonous society. The privileges of the priests and nobles had were huge, and all social classes were extremely solidified. Cheng Pan began to try to implement modern state management. Equality was already implanted in the aspects of territorial rules at the beginning. He wanted to develop a literati and landlord class who was born superior, but was completely trampled on by Cheng Pan in terms of economic and cultural aspects.

Smet returned to Europe with more precautions. After coming to the East, he stayed under Cheng Pan's command throughout his life. After understanding the two disciplines of chemistry and physics, he devoted himself to most researchers in the territory at that time. Many years later, Smet said in his recollection: "At that moment, I found my own way." Two years after joining the territory, Smart's surname was Chen, and his name was Chen Zhi.

As for now, Smet is still being squeezed by Cheng Pan. He finally found a Western wizard. Cheng Pan wanted to emptie his knowledge. After a wave of temptation (there is more coercion than lions, no need to scare sheep). Some glass manufacturing and formulas were purchased by Cheng Pan in Western crafts. Cheng Pan couldn't help but say a few words. Smet's wizard profession is somewhat biased towards alchemist in terms of attributes.

During this exchange, technology between the East and the West began to water new flowers of technology on this hot land.
