i have a super island

Chapter 481

Ah Yue left and went to the east of the island to find the equation.

Li Qingman shook her head helplessly, she had already heard about the shortage of timber on the island.

This problem is very difficult. At least for now, the island has sufficient fresh water, and the water in the crevices of the cliffs is continuous, enough to supply everyone on the island.

In terms of food, it can still cope with such a large population on the island. There is still enough dried salted fish and dried squid, and there are crops such as cassava, taro, and potatoes, so there is no need to worry too much for the time being.

Only the issue of timber is now related to the living environment of the island.

"It looks like you're worried too." Song Zhixi smiled slightly.

Thinking that Fang Fang has not come back to eat because of this incident, Li Qingman said weakly: "The pressure on Fang Fang is greater than me, but unfortunately I can't help now."

Song Zhixi comforted: "Don't worry too much, trust the equation, he will definitely figure out a way."

……

lime field.

Behind the blast furnace, there was originally a place where firewood was stacked.

There used to be tall firewood piles here, but now there are only some crooked rotten logs.

Fang Fang and Lu Fengmei stood in front of the blast furnace, the expressions on their faces were not relaxed.

"Is there nothing else to burn on the island?"

"No way, those trees and dry grass are not burnt at all, and they will be burned in one or two strokes, so there is no way to burn lime. Solid wood is needed to burn lime, and only solid wood is enough to burn. "

Lu Fengmei was complaining to Equation about the current troubles, the lack of firewood is the biggest dilemma, if this is not solved, there is no way to burn lime.

Things on the island are intertwined. Without lime, there is no way to build city walls and arrow towers, so the progress of fortifications will be delayed.

The first thing to bear the brunt is the fortifications, which will immediately affect the living environment of the island.

As the leader of the island, solving the timber problem is what Equation must do.

"Cut down the coconut tree." Lu Fengmei suggested.

"No, absolutely not."

Equation strongly disagrees. It does not take a year or two for a coconut tree to grow. Every coconut tree on the island is very precious. You cannot cut down a coconut tree just because you need wood. Fishing in exhaustion.

Lu Fengmei spread her hands and said, "It's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice. If I don't have firewood, I can't burn lime."

Fang Fang crouched on the ground, staring blankly at the two blast furnaces, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Fang Fang thought of something, immediately became excited, stood up and said, "How about the ship board?"

Lu Fengmei said: "But those few canoes are not enough to burn."

"It's not the canoe, it's the wreck."

"The sunken ship is still half in the water." Lu Fengmei reminded.

The equation said: "I'm talking about the half in the water. Since we can go to the water to collect corals, we can dismantle the sunken ship to the shore."

Lu Fengmei said: "This method is possible, but it is still a way to stop the simmering, rather than dredging the bottom. The wood of the sunken ship may be able to burn for ten days, but there is no way to solve the problem fundamentally."

"If we want to solve the problem fundamentally, we have to think about it again. In short, this solution can temporarily solve the problem at hand. Let's remove the sunken ship first."

"Alright, now we have no other choice."

According to the idea of ​​the equation, there are a lot of people on the island now. Tomorrow, we will arrange for a dozen captives to go into the water together, and take two days to remove all the underwater parts of the sunken ship.

The rotten wood soaked by seawater is first dried on the beach for a few days, and then used to burn lime after it is completely dry.

When the two were discussing how to solve the current timber crisis, Ah Yue came here.

Seeing Ah Yue approaching, Fang Fang was a little surprised and pleasantly surprised, and asked him with a smile: "How is the situation on the other side of the cliff?"

A Yue said: "Everything is going well over there, but I heard that you are in trouble here."

"Yes, there is a shortage of wood on the island, and Teacher Lu and I are discussing a solution."

"Now, is there a way?"

"There is a temporary solution."

The equation explained the way to salvage the sunken ship.

After hearing this, Ayue's expression was still not relaxed, because he also knew that this was just a stopgap measure that could only solve the problem of the past few days. If he wanted to solve the timber problem in the long run, he had to think of other ways.

"Do you have any ideas?"

Seeing that Ayue came here specially, Fang Fang knew that he must have his own ideas.

A Yue said: "In fact, my idea is very simple, that is to go to the southern island, there must be enough wood."

As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed, Ayue's words immediately opened up Fang Fang's mind, and he had to say that going to the southern island was indeed a solution.

Before that, the reason why Equation had never thought of going to the southern island was because it felt that crossing the sea was too dangerous and had great uncertainty.

After coming to the island, he only crossed the sea twice, one was to drift to Pisces Island, and the other time was to float back from Pisces Island.

These two equations were very lucky, one was not taken away by ocean currents, and the other was not encountered by storms.However, if you want to leave the island again and go to other islands, you don't know if you have such good luck.

"How about the problem of crossing the sea?"

"We can rely on canoes."

A Yue proposed to use the captured canoes. There are currently more than a dozen canoes on the island, all of which were obtained in previous battles.

However, when it comes to canoes, Fang Fang can't help frowning and shaking his head. This thing can only paddle around the island, but it doesn't have the ability to cross the sea at all, and it may overturn into the sea with a little wind and waves.

Those natives can use canoes to cross the sea, because they have always paddled this thing, and they are more comfortable with the control of canoes.There is another more important reason, that is, they don't know how many people died in the bottom of the sea in canoes, leaving only those lucky ones who came to the equation.

"You can't do it with a canoe. If you go to sea rashly, you will die." Fang Fang did not agree with A Yue's plan.

"We can make some improvements on the basis of the canoe and put together more canoes so that we can cross the sea smoothly." A Yue seemed very positive about going to sea because he wanted to hurry up Solve the problem of wood for the island.

There are more things to consider in the equation, and he asked with some concern: "If we go to sea, can we guarantee that we will reach the destination smoothly?"

A Yue smiled confidently: "Don't forget, I am a fisherman who has lived in the sea for decades, and I am good at sailing."
