Take it easy, I'm a serious game

Chapter 50 No Winter
And when Qin Chuan was tossing about making electric pig sticks—no, it should be said to be electric tiger sticks, Chen Jiu was not idle at all.

Although he is not good at specific techniques, he also has his own things to do.

For example, design a management system that can take effect quickly and is aimed at "indigenous people".

At the same time, it is necessary to integrate this system into the game system so that players can manage it through the system.

Oh, RPG games are gradually starting to transform into RTS games?
I don't know if there will be one or two masters of micromanagement when there are more players.

However, in the game, the micro-manipulation may be much simpler than in reality. After all, if the command "move the machine gun position two steps to the left" can be executed quickly and effectively, it is really useful...
Chen Jiu downloaded a large number of documents, and it took him a whole day to roughly read them. Afterwards, he re-watched the movie called "The Wave" and extracted the essence of it.

Next, is to really enter the game to practice...

.....
At five o'clock in the afternoon of the real time and five o'clock in the morning of Chidi time, Chen Jiu entered the world of Chidi.

He first inspected the research institute camp, and after confirming that there was no problem, he was planning to go back to the research institute to simply clean up the mess that Qin Chuan had tossed about, but he did not expect that there were still people waking up in the still dark camp. with.

He first heard the sound of beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, and after following the sound, he saw a figure sitting outside the tent in the dim light of the charcoal fire.

"Lin Shuang?"

Chen Jiu recognized the girl in front of him, but felt something different.

"I'm Xue Lin!"

The girl replied in a low voice, what was she holding in her hand, under the faint reflection of the snow, even though Chen Jiu was close enough, she still couldn't see clearly.

He turned on the flashlight, and Lin Xue squinted her eyes subconsciously under the light, and then asked in surprise:

"Is this also a magic lamp?"

Chen Jiu nodded. In fact, most of the refugees in the camp had seen the players returning from the darkness with flashlights, but before that, they always thought it was some kind of "magic" performed by the players as monks.

It wasn't until yesterday, after the camp's lighting system was officially set up under the auspices of Chongniang and Qin Chuan, that they realized that this thing should be the same thing as the legendary "magic lamp".

With the light of the flashlight, Chen Jiu also saw clearly what Lin Xue was holding.

It turned out to be a handful of acorns.

"Are you cracking acorns?"

"It's Acorn... Your Excellency, does each of you have your own magic lamp?"

Compared with Lin Shuang, Lin Xue is a few years younger and has a more lively personality.
-
Of course, this may also be because Lin Xue didn't know about the inconvenient past between Xiahe Village and herself.

"Um...you can put it this way. If necessary, we will also send you the magic lamp."

"By the way, this is not called a magic lamp, this is called a flashlight."

"Flashlight... a strange name."

Lin Xue repeated it subconsciously, then quickly lowered her head, and gathered together the peeled acorns on the snow by the light.

Watching her movements, Chen Jiu asked suspiciously:

"Why peel acorns now? Now that the lighting system has been completed, the lights will not be turned off until early in the morning. Isn't everyone working at that time?"

Hearing Chen Jiu's words, Lin Xue shook her head and replied:
"not enough time."

"Not enough time? Uh... Peeling acorns, even if it's done during the ice tide, there's still time, right?"

In Chen Jiu's mind, this kind of thing that can be done indoors does not need to take up the precious time before the ice tide. It is a waste of physical strength and efficiency.

But Lin Xue's next answer surprised him.

"No, sir."

"Even if it wasn't for the ice tide, we couldn't do much in previous winters."

"Everyone will be frozen and can only stay by the fire all day long, but even if they keep warming, their hands will get frostbite."

"At that time, I can't even bend my fingers, so how can I peel an acorn?"

"So we must prepare all the food before the ice tide arrives, because a little accident may kill us..."

Listening to Lin Xue's words, Chen Jiu nodded thoughtfully.

Only then did he realize that even though he had considered the most extreme scenario, he still underestimated the "ice tide", an extreme climate that could take away more than 20% of the population on the red land.

It is definitely not the ordinary extremely cold weather in his mind, because in reality, in the country where he lives, there are actually areas where the winter temperature reaches minus 70 degrees.

But the life of the people there is not as difficult as on the bare ground.

The reason is simple, whether it is in the insulation of the house or in the way of heating, they are far beyond the red ground.

Even, some people can spend the whole winter wearing only one unlined garment.

And this impression also brought misleading to oneself.

This is not the case on the red ground...

Here, everyone must use the most primitive means to fight against the extreme cold, so their planning for using heat has also been developed to an almost limit level.

Maybe every piece of firewood they burned during the ice tide was carefully planned.

Thinking of this, Chen Jiu said:
"I see... If this is the case, starting tomorrow, we will turn on the lights throughout the night, and you can work at any time, as long as your body can bear it."

"In addition, you don't have to worry too much. The camp is not completely finished yet, but we will soon build enough wooden igloos for everyone to live in, and the heating system will include all igloos."

"According to our plan, during the ice tide, the temperature inside the igloo will reach at least 10 degrees... This winter, it won't be too cold."

Chen Jiu's words didn't have any watery parts, because it was verified by Chong Niang's repeated calculations.

According to his design, when all the igloos are completed, the entire camp will form a loop-shaped windproof structure. The closer to the center of the camp, the slower the heat will be lost.

The deep underground heating system will also be arranged according to the loop structure. By feeding materials at several fixed nodes, it can ensure that the peripheral heating temperature decreases to the inner circle, thereby ensuring the temperature stability of the entire camp.

This is the wisdom of modern architecture. Using this wisdom, he is confident that all camp residents, including players, can maintain a certain degree of activity during the ice tide—everything can be stopped, but work cannot be stopped.

Seeing Chen Jiu's confident expression, Lin Xue who was opposite asked in surprise:

"Leader, how hot is 10 degrees? Is it the same as summer?"

Chen Jiu shook his head and replied:
"That's not... the same as late autumn."

"Don't worry, no matter what you were like in Xiahe Village before, in our camp, from now on, there will be no more winter..."
