Chapter 311 The mountain-moving project begins!
Chapter 311 The mountain-moving project—starts!
Just like that, with the finalization of the multi-party transaction, the development of mankind's 18th civilization has entered an unprecedented fast lane!
Physical technology, idealistic technology, especially the strength of craftsmen, have developed rapidly in all directions!
A year later, the craftsmen's grand creative project finally came to an end.
The reason is... there is no more material.
Yes, the low-level materials accumulated by the Shumiba civilization over the years have been almost exhausted and turned into equipment.
As for mid-level materials and high-level materials, humans do not have the luxury to practice using them without inspiration...
But over the past year or so, we have indeed accumulated valuable experience for human craftsmen.
And those 31 craftsmen of Shumiba Civilization finally stayed and lived in human civilization as aliens.
The collateral given by Lu Yuan was a fist-sized piece of "sealing resin", which was valued at 3,000 aura.
This incident did not cause too many civil disturbances. Humans have become accustomed to even ugly-looking Zerg warriors. A few more large ratmen are really nothing...
What...are these rat people noble?
Conch mother is still the princess of the previous dynasty! Who hasn’t ordered the backstage yet?
What attracts people’s attention the most is actually the great “Mountain Moving Project”!
The publicity department has been preheating for this epoch-making project for a whole year.
Now that everything has been planned, a female host and several experts and scholars formally announced the official establishment of the project in front of the TV station.
"In order to breed more rare animals and plants and enhance the overall strength of mankind, it is necessary for us to build a large ecological circle."
"We call this ecological circle the Green Mountain. A total of hundreds of extraordinary plants can be planted, more than 20 kinds of extraordinary animals can be cultivated, and 300 kinds of mutant plants can be cultivated."
"Our goal is to levitate the mountain with a mass of nearly 100 million tons not far away."
"This big mountain will follow the Sky City from now on."
A three-dimensional image of the mountain peak where the "Sinkhole" is located was played on the screen.
This mountain is indeed pretty good, with a height of 400 meters, fertile soil, dense forests, dense caves, and a lake with a depth of 10 meters.
In an all-natural state, extraordinary creatures such as king snakes and scorpions can provide more output.
And students' "outdoor activity plan" can also continue in this mountain.
Well, from a certain perspective, this mountain is more dangerous than Pangea.
Once this program was broadcast, it immediately caused a sensation among the public.
The TV sets in each school classroom also played relevant columns, and specially selected a lesson for students to watch.
The good-looking host sat on the left side of the table: "This is a huge project, equivalent to building half of a city in the sky. It will take at least twenty years... In addition to extraordinary output, Professor Guo is very important to us.
Are there any special benefits?"
The expert sitting on the right said: "This is also a moment to test our industrial capabilities and cohesion. Everyone should also know the division of civilization levels. We are a very unique civilization... It looks very powerful, but in fact it is very weak."
"We own a city in the sky and a poppy tree, and these are the wealth that can only be obtained by a second-level civilization or even a third-level civilization..."
"But in terms of overall strength, we are really just a first-level civilization. We cannot really think that the things we pick up are obtained by our own strength."
"It's like a test paper. If you get a perfect score on the test paper, you can't think that you really got a perfect score."
After hearing these words, the common people were inevitably a little unconvinced.
The student group in particular is even more unconvinced.
Why is it a first-level civilization?
But the fact is that humans still cannot have a TV in every household.
Most people still watch TV on the big screen in the square or the screen in the city hall.
Mobile phones are not widespread either.
There is no way, I can’t make chips myself. How many mobile phones can I make with the help of the “universal factory”?
The increase in industrial capacity is really difficult, even more difficult than the development of idealistic technology. It requires population and market, and requires constant iteration.
But industrial capabilities and idealistic technology complement each other.
"So this mountain-moving project will guide us in the direction of progress and allow us to improve our industrial capabilities in practice. If we can successfully levitate the mountain, it means that we are a genuine second-level civilization."
Mountain Moving Plan - First of all, the first difficult point is to create a large foundation for the entire mountain!
This foundation is actually the largest project volume, and is expected to consume five million cubic meters of cement and about one million tons of steel bars!
Compared with the former industrial Cthulhu Bactria, this data is indeed just drizzle. Bactria produced 2 billion tons of cement and 1 billion tons of steel a year!
But for human civilization, it is really difficult to reach the sky.
Humanity doesn’t even have a serious cement factory!
Fortunately, there is a Rize civilization next door, and they still have a cement factory. Lu Yuan plans to dismantle their equipment, clone some with a universal factory, and then spread it on a large scale.
The same is true for steel plants and chemical plants.
The "Universal Factory" is really an artifact. Although it can make chips very slowly, it can make bulky machines very quickly.
In this way, humankind's industrial strength can be quickly supplemented.
The second difficulty is that energy consumption will also increase. This mountain has nearly 90 million tons!
The poppy tree can no longer bear too much energy consumption, and physical energy must be used to replace idealistic energy.
Of course, this matter can be solved through nuclear power plants.
Lu Yuan plans to make several copies of nuclear power units, and he will also look for uranium mines and make a fortune. Maybe he can make nuclear bombs in the future!
There is also a third difficulty. After industry spreads, more people are needed, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the industry for a long time.
However, in the supernatural society, using the automated production of the green paradise can improve a lot of work efficiency. In addition, the output of a "green mountain" can indeed bring more people to the second level.
Letting ordinary people enjoy the dividends of the times is the goal that Lu Yuan pursues. If there are too many people and no resources to support them, and the new generation is all first-level, it will obviously be full of contradictions.
But if you pile everyone up to level three, you still don’t have that ability at this stage.
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, 400,000 people may be a more appropriate number.
Taking into account the second-level experts, the average age is around 200 years old.
The number of people born every year will increase to 2,000-2,200, which will basically maintain the long-term balance of the population.
…
After this program was broadcast, Lu Yuan clearly felt that there was a "qi" brewing in people's hearts and spreading to every corner of society.
He was actually a little worried.
Except for the first one or two generations who suffered quickly, the third generation behind them did not suffer much.
The implementation of the "Mountain Moving Project" will obviously transfer a large amount of productivity, and some insignificant industries must be transferred to heavy industries.
As long as the clothes are wearable, it is no longer possible to buy flashy ones. Daily necessities such as bicycles and tricycles will also increase in price.
The overall quality of life may decline somewhat.
Even the working hours will be extended a lot. A simple 8-hour work system cannot be completed in 20 years.
He is really worried about this... I think back then, he also worked as a social worker and a programmer, and experienced the life of 996.
If you apply yourself to others, how many people want to suffer?
"Hey, why are you worried about this... I suggest you go to the cafeteria and listen to the discussion." The old cat said speechlessly.
Lu Yuan really followed its advice, sneaked into the Big Rice Tong Canteen, and protected himself with a different dimension.
When it was time to eat, people in twos and threes soon came here to eat.
"How can I move a mountain?" The big man leading the task was named Lu Wei, a worker in the engineering team. "Just look at my name and you will know that I have to move at least two mountains in my life."
The team of workers all laughed. Another worker said: "It's already very difficult to build a mountain. It takes twenty years. It's not something you can compare to when you build a house. You might have to work overtime every day."
Lu Wei slapped his thigh and widened his eyes: "What... twenty years?! I was scared to death. I thought it was two hundred years."
"It doesn't matter if you work a little overtime. Commander Lu worked hard for six months in a row, 18 hours a day, to forge equipment. Those craftsmen worked crazily for 20 months!"
The canteen is filled with happy air.
Immediately afterwards, a scientist sitting next to him said: "If you don't think of the large amount of engineering, you can indeed carry two mountains, one to raise overflowers, and the other to raise some ordinary animals to hit the price of some agricultural products."
Lu Yan immediately said: "Good good! This is good, I just take a bite of honey. Now our honey here is too expensive, and a month's salary can't buy a few bottles."
"Drink too much for diabetes!"
"Either three mountains? Can you also engage in a nuclear test center? Nuclear bomb is awesome, do we have to get one?"
"Either carry four mountains and make a large missile launch base ... I go to recommend the upper parliament, we are also very lacking in this stuff."
"Let's come again, mine, there are a lot of coal here. We move a mountain, which can be regarded as solving the problem of industrial raw materials."
Lu Yan widened his eyes: "Do you really have to support the construction period to two hundred years?! Either I renamed Lu Yan?"
Everyone laughed again.
Their enthusiasm is like red steel; everyone wants to be a higher level of civilization.
Let the amount of engineering come a bit bigger!
Only Lu Yuan hiding in different spaces, the mood is a bit complicated.
He found himself, as if he was restricted by the inherent thinking.
Why is it also working overtime, the same is also a job, and there is something different between people?
