One hour has sixty minutes, one minute has sixty seconds, and one day has twenty-seven hours, thirty-seven minutes and forty-two seconds. Alas! Why do you always feel so awkward?

Ha! You are really right, read it. This is the time in the wasteland of Gaia World, but the basic time unit used is the time unit on the earth.

When Zhang Quan was on earth, he wanted to customize such a batch of strange quartz watches, he almost didn't laugh at the business manager in the watchmaking factory. How should you do this surface scale and where do you use it? In the opinion of the business manager, Zhang Quan specially instructed to customize such a batch of watches, he must have no idea which weird one had a snake instinct disease and used the money to make people play with it.

Of course he didn't know that there was really such a world, and the time there was really calculated like this for a day and night.

The reason why we need to customize watches is that Zhang Quan wants to reform in his own tribe.

This time the reform was initiated from the tribe's weights and measures field.

In fact, Zhang Quan felt the pain of missing weights and measures when he came here on the first day, but he had never found his free time to start a good job to change the situation.

The orcs on the wasteland have no time or concept of weights and measures. The benchmark standards they use are all from southern humans. However, due to the rough living habits and thinking of the orcs themselves, even the local weights and measures standards transmitted from southern humans have passed away in the process of time passing.

The self-proclaimed engineers in the wasteland used a set of measurement benchmarks passed down from ancient times within their tribes. They used the length between the two horns and horns on the head of the adult Taurus as a room. Well, it is actually equivalent to about 2.5 feet on the earth, and this measurement is very unstable. The gap between different adult Taurus can sometimes reach one or two inches, and the first knuckle of the first finger of the adult Taurus is one finger, which is about 6.5 mm on the earth, and the gap is also very large. As for why the narrative here is so troublesome, it is because the Taurus is an Ordinary Hound, and it is not as good as the Earthlings.

Of course, there are also larger length measurements on the wasteland. For example, the distance that an adult centaur ran in one breath is called a mile. At this point, you may ask, what does this breath mean, and this involves the time measurement of the wasteland beasts.

From this we can see that the close relationship between time, distance and weight, and the basic physical measurements in life, it can be said that any society of intelligent species is based on these most basic measurement benchmarks from a macro perspective. Every detail of the life of intelligent species is integrated into a large number of these most basic wisdom. Without standards, there will be no science, and without science, there will be no progress.

The army is a rigorous quantitative chemistry department. From the calculation of logistics materials to the information of every enemy situation, it is inseparable from the most basic measurement. If there is no basic standard, how can the orcs report the enemy situation and measure the distance? Now the orcs’ crude and simple experience description system cannot be used in Zhang Quan’s eyes, and most of them rely on the rough estimates of the parties involved. The feeling that Zhang Quan gives Zhang Quan is like a blind man riding a blind horse, and he has no idea. Even his homemade so-called military map is basically the level of homemade strategic maps when playing strategy games, and the reliability is also very poor.

But in this situation, the orcs of all races under his command were willing to accept it and did not feel uncomfortable at all. These guys have lived in such an environment since childhood, and I don’t know that they have survived for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

In short, the concept of weights and measures of primitive civilization is too rough and difficult to apply to the production process at all. In fact, Zhang Quan believes that this is also one of the reasons why the science and technology of these primitive tribes and orcs in the orc wasteland are difficult to achieve systematic development. He has to admit that the orcs' brains are inherently inadequate to the development of technology.

But now, Zhang Quan is really ready to make a big fuss in weights and measures. This is the first big thing that Zhang Quan feels to do to change the world.

Compared with this primitive planet, the weights and measures on the earth are much more advanced, such as the metric system, the kilogram system, and the seconds system, which are closely linked to the basic principles of classical physics. It can be said that the modern science of the entire earth is based on this system of weights and measures. To a certain extent, it can even be said to be applicable in the universe.

Therefore, the origin of the previous batch of strange watches was also found. This is one step in Zhang Quan's attempt to promote the Earth's Weights and Measures Plan in a small and medium-sized manner in the Base Mountain Tribe.

First, by transplanting the Earth's standard system, a series of standards from time, length to weight, to the elite group of orcs on the wasteland, we will first establish standard concepts for these orcs step by step, and then through large-scale production activities and large-scale training activities, we will first spread the basic concepts of weight and measure among small groups such as taurus craftsmen and cadres and officers. After all, their work is closely related to these advanced knowledge.

Just like the Niuta people, they accept the Arabic numerals taught by Zhang Quan very quickly, because it is indeed very convenient to learn mathematics through the Arabic numeral system, which makes them intuitively feel the convenience. Many concepts that were always just vague to orcs have become extremely clear, such as the difference between a hundred and a thousand.

Officers also need to learn basic mathematics when it comes to command and management issues, such as how many subordinates they have, how many roads they can run in an hour, etc. These are the most vivid applications of basic mathematics in their work.

As for the tribe's management cadres, let alone.

Then when such a small group of people learn well and adapt, they hope that the demonstration effect of this small group of people can form a larger spread. This is Zhang Quan's plan to promote weights and measures in his own tribe.

Otherwise, it would be too difficult for all orcs to forcefully instill such a concept one by one.

After all, Zhang Quan is a person and his abilities are really limited. He can only use this most convenient method and take advantage of the situation.

He did not choose to forcefully promote the so-called advanced culture, but it was always a thankless job. Even if the backward primitive tribes on the earth had spread to the world, don’t they still entertain themselves and live at their own pace and way?
