Thinking of this, Fang Long silently wrote a note in his notebook, recording the need to upgrade the granary in the future.
However, even so, Yu Min was taken aback when the heavy door of the granary was opened. He really didn't expect that there was so much grain stored on Merun Island.
"Younger, you need someone to move these grains."
"Remember, one warehouse is 50 tons of grain, you only need to move 10 warehouses." Fang Long said to Yu Min.
"Okay, Mr. Fang, I'll send someone to carry the food in a while." Yu Min nodded, indicating that he knew.
Just as Fang Long and Yu Min were handing over the grain, Nan Shan followed Zhang Zhi to the industrial zone on Dongdao.
At this time, there are only a hundred or so islanders working in the industrial zone.These people seem like a lot, but not enough.
In particular, the ore veins that Tang Xiaochuan had buried before were all in the East Island. Although these ore veins were rich ore and shallow mines, digging them out of the ground required a lot of people.
After being dug out, these ores still need to be transported to the blacksmith shop.Basically, a ton of iron ore, after removing the water in the ore, is smelted into iron, which is only about 500KG.
That is to say, the content of iron in the ore is only 60% on a dry basis, and 10% of it is water.
And 500kg of iron is still just rough iron. If you want to forge weapons, armor and other things, you need to go through multiple processes at least. In the end, you can have 3 or 400kg of high-quality iron, which is not bad.
"Brother Nanshan, your boiler is a bit small." Zhang Zhi looked at the iron-making furnace in the blacksmith's shop and said while rubbing his chin.
"Brother Zhang, do you think I don't want to change to a bigger stove? The main reason is that I don't have any blueprints here, and I don't have enough manpower." Hearing Zhang Zhi's words, Nanshan smiled wryly.
"Hahaha, just bear with it. When this group of people comes over, I'll send someone to help and build you a bigger furnace." Zhang Zhi smiled and said to Nanshan.
"That's a good relationship." Nanshan nodded when he heard Zhang Zhi's words, expressing his great happiness.
"Okay, now, I've brought people over to you. You should be busy here, and build a batch of iron guns as soon as possible. When the time comes, those new residents need to be armed as soon as possible."
"Understood, Brother Zhang, I'll take care of things, don't worry." Nanshan nodded, and then said, "A while ago, I still had some high-quality iron here, and I will start making weapons today."
"Okay, then you are busy first, I will go to screen first, the person who escorts the food." Zhang Zhi said to Nanshan, and then continued: "I am busy every day, hey."
"Brother Zhang, it's better to be busy, at least in this way, live a fulfilling life." Nanshan smiled at Zhang Zhi.
He really feels that his life is more fulfilling now than before. In the past, apart from writing books, he would go to the mountains to collect herbs or go forging iron, and it was the same there as now.
A large group of men obeyed his orders and worked with him.
At this time, Nanshan had to admit that he seemed to have a little "official addiction".He was a little obsessed with this feeling.
Zhang Zhi chatted with Nanshan for a few more words, and then left Dongdao. He still had a lot of things to deal with, so he couldn't waste too much time on Dongdao.
At this time, in the villa, Tang Xiaochuan and Ma Yin were sitting face to face.
Tang Xiaochuan didn't speak, just looked at Ma Yin like this.Ma Yin, on the other hand, seemed a little restrained.
"Xiaochuan, is it really possible?" Ma Yin raised her head, looked at Tang Xiaochuan and asked.
"There's nothing wrong with it, it will have to be done sooner or later."
"Yes, this is the first time for me to do this kind of thing, and I have no experience at all." Ma Yin said with a red face.
"Sister Ma Yin, you speak like I have experience. Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones." Tang Xiaochuan smiled when he heard Ma Yin's words.
"Besides, even if you haven't done this kind of thing, you've always seen it, haven't you seen it?"
"How is it possible, how can I say that I have experienced more than ten years of study, how could I not have seen it!"
"Isn't that all right? You just follow what you see. Once you are born, you are familiar with twice. If you come a few more times, you will be an old driver." Tang Xiaochuan said.
"But, seeing and doing are different, okay. People will be nervous." Ma Yin rubbed her hands and said to Tang Xiaochuan.
"No, Sister Ma Yin, we really can't find anyone on the island now. If you don't become the teacher, our school won't be able to open." Tang Xiaochuan smiled wryly.
"Then why don't you go?"
"Me? I might go to sea someday. I really don't have time, but don't worry, as long as I'm on the island, I'll help."
"This..." Ma Yin didn't know what to say.
Chapter 3 Upgrading the Power Plant
"Come on, sister Ma Yin, I don't need you to teach those children any advanced skills, I just need you to teach some Chinese characters and some basic knowledge." Tang Xiaochuan said to Ma Yin with a smile.
"Well, okay." Ma Yin could only nod when she heard Tang Xiaochuan say that.
"By the way, Xiaochuan, I want to ask you, why did you suddenly realize that you are going to start a school?" Ma Yin looked at Tang Xiaochuan and asked.
"Sister Ma Yin, it's not that I want to do it, but that I have to do it." Tang Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly.
"What do you mean? Isn't the current situation very good?" Ma Yin was a little puzzled when she heard Tang Xiaochuan's words.
"Sister Ma Yin, now we are only in the era of slavery, and after that there will be the feudal age, the imperial age, the steam age and the industrial age. Do you think the next few eras can be played by just a few of us?"
"If my guess is correct, in the next few eras, it is very likely that the island residents will need to reach a certain level of education, and they will be required to do research and development and manufacture some equipment."
"These things can't be done without culture."
"Since we have extra time and energy now, why can't we transfer some knowledge to these children in advance?"
"But, what if Xiaochuan doesn't need these things?" Ma Yin looked at Tang Xiaochuan and asked.
"Even if it's not needed, it's good for the development of our island itself." Tang Xiaochuan shook his head with a smile, and then said: "Do you know? In fact, in our flower growers, the spread of culture is the foundation of defining a nation .”
"Did you know that in history, our nation has faced alien races many times, and those alien races have disappeared into the long river of history after mixing with us."
"It's not that we wiped them out, but that our long-standing culture assimilated them, and finally made them our own."
When Tang Xiaochuan said this, he paused for a while.
"Xiaochuan, what do you mean, you want to assimilate all these natives?" Ma Yin looked at Tang Xiaochuan and asked in disbelief.
"Yes." Tang Xiaochuan nodded, and then continued: "Not only to completely assimilate them, but to make them our own."
"We don't know how long we will stay in this world, so we must plan badly. If we really can't go back, then these islanders will become our people."
"Since this is the case, it is good for us to assimilate them one step earlier than others." Tang Xiaochuan looked at Ma Yin and said seriously.
"I understand." Ma Yin nodded seriously when she heard Tang Xiaochuan's words: "Then I will start teaching the children of those islanders this afternoon?"
"No, wait until this group of trading islanders come to the island." Tang Xiaochuan shook his head.
"Now we don't even have a decent teaching venue. In the past two days, I will choose a suitable location and build a new place that can be used for classes."
"After everything is done, you are teaching the children." Tang Xiaochuan shook his head with a smile.
"Oh, that's fine." Ma Yin nodded, and then continued: "Then I will also prepare the textbooks in the next two days, otherwise I won't even know what class to take."
"Well, good." Tang Xiaochuan nodded in satisfaction, then stood up.
"Huh? Xiaochuan, where are you going?" Ma Yin asked curiously when she saw Tang Xiaochuan stood up and walked towards the outside.
"Didn't Brother Zhang say before that the power plant on the island would run at full capacity after adding new housing? I plan to upgrade the power plant." Tang Xiaochuan turned his head and said to Ma Yin.
Gu "Oh, so are you coming back for lunch?"
"Look, you should come back." Tang Xiaochuan said, and walked out of the villa.
After Tang Xiaochuan walked out of the villa, he went straight to the material warehouse next to the villa.He directly opened the door of the warehouse and found that it was full of shelves.
And those shelves are full of all kinds of materials, such as island stones, blueprints, everything that one expects to find.As for the bread and mineral water that were not easy to preserve, although some were stored, most of them were put in the islanders' warehouse by Zhang Zhi and the others.
After all, hundreds of supply boxes can be fished up on the island every day, and a large part of these supply boxes will produce food like bread.
Tang Xiaochuan and the others couldn't eat so much at all. Since they couldn't eat it, it would be a waste to put it away, so Zhang Zhi discussed with Fang Long and directly created a work point system among the islanders similar to the flower growers in the 6s and 70s.
Register every islander on the island, and as long as you work hard every day, you can get 2 work points.
Then use these work points to exchange for rare items such as bread in the warehouse.
And these residents saw that as long as they worked hard, they could eat exquisite food that they had never seen before, and they worked hard every day, exceeding their quota every day.
This is why Fang Long was able to reclaim 2.5 square kilometers of arable land in a short period of time with a small number of people.
In this way, some food that is not suitable for storage on the island can be consumed normally without waste, and Myron Island has also been developed very well, which is a win-win situation.
Therefore, after Tang Xiaochuan found out about this matter, he did not object. Instead, he increased his investment, and he thought of some items that were easy to preserve, such as canned food, and he also included them in the list of convertible items.
Those islanders saw that they could exchange more things, so they worked harder to exchange for work points, which directly formed a virtuous circle.
However, these are not the points that Tang Xiaochuan is concerned about now. He went directly to the shelves marked with functional categories, looking for equipment upgrade cards.
Following the marked instructions, Tang Xiaochuan found the shelf where the upgrade card was stored very smoothly, and he took an upgrade card directly from the shelf.
Tang Xiaochuan, who was ready, walked out of the warehouse and walked towards the power station.
Tang Xiaochuan walked very slowly and was not in a hurry, but the island is only that big. He only walked for more than 20 minutes and came to the beach.
Seeing that half of the power station was built in the sea, Tang Xiaochuan directly took out the upgrade card and chose to use it for the power station.
"Ding, I checked that the upgrade card is being used to upgrade the small integrated power station. Are you sure you want to confirm the upgrade?"
"Confirm." Tang Xiaochuan directly chose to upgrade.
Afterwards, the upgrade card in his hand turned into dots of white light and flew towards the power plant.
All of a sudden, the entire power plant turned into a white light shadow, and then this white light shadow continued to grow bigger and taller.
After waiting for less than 10 seconds, the white light slowly dissipated, and the last power station, which was bigger than before, appeared in front of Tang Xiaochuan.
"Ding, the medium-sized comprehensive power station has been successfully upgraded."
Chapters 3 and [-] from the "brainwashing" of Zeus
Ps: Seeing that the chapter is singular, I feel uncomfortable, so I added a new chapter.
"Medium-sized comprehensive power station: Are you still troubled by the lack of power resources on the island? Now I would like to recommend to you a comprehensive power station that integrates tidal, water conservancy and solar power."
"If there are tides, you can use tidal power to generate electricity. If there are no tides, you can use water conservancy to generate electricity. If you don't even have water conservancy, you can still use solar energy."
"The limit can reach 25000kw/h, which is the only choice for you to develop the island."
"Since there is an integrated power station, my mother no longer has to worry about power outages."
When Tang Xiaochuan saw the new properties of the power station, he waved his arms excitedly.
"The power generation capacity of a full 2.5 kWh is 25 times that of small power stations! This time, I don't believe it, and there is still a shortage of electricity!" Tang Xiaochuan murmured.
The original small power station could only generate 1000 kilowatts per hour, but even this 1000 kilowatts is enough to meet the electricity consumption of the entire island.
After all, it is only a single room lighting that does not use much electricity, and other equipment, after using the dormitory lighting, is in a shutdown state, which belongs to staggered peak power consumption.Therefore, at this stage, the power consumption is actually not high, which can be regarded as excessive power generation.
Zhang Zhi only said that there will be no saturated power consumption until the new islanders come to the island, but that is only a 1000kw/h power generation.
Now, the power generation of this medium-sized power station has been directly increased by 25 times.In other words, even if the new residents on the island are counted, they will use electricity together and turn on all the electrical equipment on the island.
The same is in the state of excessive power generation.
Now Tang Xiaochuan doesn't have any extra energy storage batteries, even if it is excessive power generation, he has nothing to do.These electricity can only be wasted in vain.
Still, it's better than no power at all.
"Wow, is this a product of technology? It's really mysterious."
Just as Tang Xiaochuan was still looking at the power station in front of him and was in a daze, a voice sounded from behind him.
Tang Xiaochuan looked back and found that Zeus was carrying Gaia with a wound on his face.
"Old man, why are you here?" Tang Xiaochuan frowned when he saw Gaia.
"It's obvious, I'm here to find you." Zeus said with a smile.
"I'm asking, why did she come here?" Tang Xiaochuan came to Zeus and said in a low voice, and at the same time he pointed to Gaia.
"Her?" Zeus heard Tang Xiaochuan's words, and then said, "She is here to be soft."
"Admit it? Why did you suddenly give in?"
"I'm going to ask you that." Zeus rolled his eyes at Tang Xiaochuan when he heard Tang Xiaochuan's words, and said, "Who knows what's going on, her divine power has disappeared."
"Then you pressed him on the ground and beat him up like that. I guess everyone was beaten out of the shadows."
"It's my fault." Tang Xiaochuan was speechless when he heard what Zeus said.
"If she can be honest, whoever is full will go back and beat her up."
"I know that Gaia's temper is notoriously violent. But to be honest, her ability is really strong."
"What's the use of being strong? Keep fighting against me. It's better not to have supernatural power." Tang Xiaochuan rolled his eyes, expressing his speechlessness.
"Isn't this already known to be wrong? Come to apologize to you?"
