Spore Story

Chapter 509 Sky Century: Agriculture, Developing to the Sky

==========
In many human fantasy stories, there is such a thing as a floating ship, even a weird open ship, it is not difficult to fly in space.

Of course, the friend clan's airships have basically nothing to do with ships in the traditional sense.

After analyzing the pumice principle of the floating island, Pengzu discovered that it is actually very simple to make a floating boat.

First of all, prepare a controllable energy system for the pumice stone to stimulate the pumice stone to generate buoyancy, which constitutes the initial power system;

Secondly, install a shell on the pumice stone to fix the power system so that the power system will not fly by itself, while the hull is still swaying on the ground.At the same time, people can also rely on this shell and enjoy the benefits of the buoyancy of the pumice stone.

Thus, the airship was made.

(N many details (=.=) are omitted here)
Of course, the above is just a simplified model of the N stage.

After the House of Elders passed the mass production permit plan for floating airships, the unreal life once again returned to calm (on the surface).

He first went to the moon spirit breeding base to learn about the situation of the main brain.

The number of brain worms in the breeding base reached 320, but since the birth of the master brain worm, no brain worms have mutated. This shows that, in a practical sense, the eight nests that are considered to be divided into the breeding base are actually one.

And this mastermind is also very peaceful, and is accepting the children's knowledge of the friend race little by little.

However, perhaps it is because the brain of the main brain worm has been developed in the age of brain worms from the very beginning, so the memory ability of this main brain worm is no less than that of a six or seven-year-old friend, and the memory speed is very fast. But in terms of understanding...

Without the opportunity to personally operate and test those knowledge (the brainworm means that the tentacles are weak (=.=)), it is just like a hard disk, and most of the knowledge is purely memorized.

What can be understood is, at most, only spiritual language, culture and other things that do not need to be tested by hand.

As for Bai Nong, in the spring of 37, relying on the existing eight breeding nests, the base produced 300 moon spirits at one time.

In the school, after half a year of surprise loyalty education for these Yueling people, they are now under the leadership of Bai Nong and ten senior Yueling people, continuing loyalty education in a farmland area on the outskirts of Pengcheng. Learn farming techniques.

According to Bai Nong, these moon spirits are born farmers.

However, Kong Huan just laughed at this statement, and no one would take it seriously without actual data.

Because as long as anyone who knows Bai Nong knows that the other party usually encounters a good-behaved being, he will say something like 'I see your bones are amazing, you are born to farm', which makes people embarrassing That's it.

Not long after establishing the role of the Moonlings in the agriculture of the Peng Clan, news came from the Floating Power Design Bureau: the construction of the floating ship has been completed, and ground testing has begun.

So, Kong Huan started to go to A07 floating island, where Pengzu's [pumice application research base] is set up, which is now the main research department of floating ships, equipped with two thousand-ton dry docks.

And the Pengzu's first floating ship "Tianren" will also set sail here.

November 37, 11 AD, A6 Floating Island Pumice Application Research Base.

"But it sounds illusory, and you have passed the age of pursuing fantasy, so what is the purpose of supporting the practical use of floating ships?"

Flying all the way until finally landing on the square of A07, because no newcomers appeared recently, she was idle as a novice guide. This time, Lingxue, who happened to come to visit with Konghuan, proposed what she had been thinking along the way. question.

But when he heard Lingxue's words, Kong Huan just smiled, then waved his finger to the floating island where he was, and then pointed to the land under the island.

"Look carefully, what's the difference?"

"difference?"

Lingxue looked around blankly.

The line of sight first focused on the ground below the floating island, because she just flew from there.

Maybe it's just the beginning of winter, and the world that has already entered the ice age is even colder. When flying in the air before, Lingxue had to turn off the perception of temperature. As for the ordinary winged people (including business representatives, government personnel) Wait, they all have the same goal as the two of them), and each of them is even more tightly bound.

The ground world along the way has long been covered by ice and snow, revealing a piece of pure white.It is conceivable that if you walk on it, you may have to cover your thighs when you step down.

Nodding her head, the thoughtful Lingxue turned her gaze back to the ground of the floating island.

When she just landed on the floating island, except for the slightly richer world in front of her eyes, and some ice and snow on the top of the island, Lingxue didn't feel anything else, but the performance of the surrounding Yiren reminded Lingxue. .

Because these winged people unexpectedly opened their clothes cheerfully, as if the temperature had become much warmer all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Lingxue immediately regained her temperature perception, and suddenly, a spring-like warmth swept over her.

"It's the temperature difference! But..."

"However, why is the floating island warmer than the ground even though it is located at a very high position and should be colder?"

Kong Huan said with a smile, and then pointed to the surrounding world to explain.

"This phenomenon is actually not very easy to explain, because the research department has not yet obtained a substantive statement about its principle, just like what [buoyancy] is, we have not obtained the deepest theory, but ..."

Patting the lawn on the ground, signaling Lingxue to sit down, Kong Huan said: "The Technology Bureau now has a guess that while the pumice generates buoyancy, it also has a certain effect on the magnetic field in the surrounding space, and this effect is reflected in the floating space. The weather on the island, that is, the entire floating island has become very stable."

"Stablize?"

Lingxue froze for a moment, then continued to stare at Kong Huan.

Because she was busy taking care of the newcomers before, she obviously didn't have enough time to understand the situation of various departments and even various industries of the friend clan, and of course, understand the responsible direction of those that were originally empty.

"Yes, stable."

"Because it is at an altitude of several thousand meters, the influence of atmospheric clouds on the weather of the floating island is minimized. In conjunction with the stability caused by the pumice stone before this, the weather of the floating island has little change. To use a vivid metaphor, That is, the four seasons are like spring.”

"Of course, in reality, the floating island is not really like spring all year round. It just means that the climate conditions of the floating island, spring, summer, autumn and winter, the climate fluctuations are only between 5 degrees and 25 degrees, which is very stable."

"Also, you should be able to see that the sunshine on the floating island is very stable, right?"

Lingxue nodded.

"what do you mean……"

Looking at the A07 floating island, which exists as a dedicated pumice application research, but there are only some buildings in one corner, and most of the floating island is an open space, plain, or even woods, a possibility flashed in Lingxue's mind. sexual considerations.

Seeing Lingxue's knowing expression, Kong Huan smiled and nodded.

"That's right, using the floating island to grow crops, under the current situation, the harvest will definitely be good."

Nodding subconsciously, Lingxue suddenly came to her senses, and turned her head to stare at Kong Huan fiercely: "Before, you stole... no, you don't have that ability."

"Forehead……"

Although he was not suspected of peeking at his thoughts, but to clear his suspicions in such a way, Kong Huan always felt aggrieved, really...

"However, I have read some information. Now the friends have discovered and controlled 27 floating islands, the largest of which is less than [-] square kilometers. How much food can be grown?"

"Tsk tsk."

Wiggling his fingers triumphantly, Kong Huan's expression at this time made even Ling Xue, who belonged to the sheep level, feel the urge to bump him with his horn.

Fortunately, Kong Huan didn't maintain this kind of action called 'pretentiousness' for a long time, it happened to be the critical point where Lingxue wanted to explode but hadn't yet, this could be regarded as accumulated experience. (=.=)

"So, you say I'm lazy, but it's absolutely wrong."

Smiling, he wrapped the soil on the ground with his thoughts, forming several small models of floating islands in front of him, and Kong Huan pointed to them one by one.

"After solving the problem of the moon spirit mastermind, I have been researching other ways to solve the food survival crisis brought about by the ice age, and the floating island is used as a place to fly to the sky above the clouds, with stable sunshine and suitable climate. How can it be ignored?"

Opening his arms, as if embracing the floating islands in front of him, Kong Huan said with emotion.

"So, the floating island has become my research target, you see..."

Pointing to a floating island in front of him, Kong Huan spoke in a ostentatious tone, but this tone made Lingxue feel nostalgic.

"...This is A03. At the beginning, the guys in the Executive Yuan wanted to use it to transform it into a sky city as a 'reward' for some kind of merit, but I stopped it. After all, the friends are only a small area now. Private ownership of land' (that is, if the land area of ​​each household exceeds a certain level, it cannot be privately owned (=.=)).

"This is A12. It was originally intended to be a pumice mine. Because I don't need a lot of pumice for the time being, I also saved it. The mine is only carried out on a few small floating islands."

"This is A08..."

"This……"

……

Models of floating islands floated by one by one, and Lingxue realized with black lines all over her head that she, the seemingly leisurely Master Consciousness, seemed to have interfered with many administrative orders as usual...

"Having said so much, it's actually just to show how much I attach importance to these things."

Patting the model of the floating island in front of him, Kong Huan said with a serious face.

"Although the area of ​​a single floating island is not large, and the area of ​​arable land is even smaller, I counted the existing 27 floating islands of my family, and inspected each floating island one by one in the past two years. Cultivated land area, and finally found..."

All the floating islands in front of him stopped floating, and one or several small pieces of land flew out of each floating island, and Kong Huan pointed to these lands with a smile on his face and said.

"After counting the arable land area of ​​all the floating islands, I found that the land with a larger area alone adds up to 209 square kilometers."

Seeing that Lingxue hadn't reacted yet, Kong Huan didn't care, but blinked at Lingxue, and then added.

"Maybe you still don't understand this, so let's change the unit of measurement, 209 square kilometers, if converted into our family's farmland unit 'field', that is 209 million fields."

"As for the friends, if we only calculate the consumption of friends, the grain output of the floating island that I secretly tested in several islands this year is calculated as the average annual food consumption of two fields per friend, regardless of storage. , the 2 floating islands currently under the control of our friends can support 27 million friends!"

Excited expressions appeared on the faces of Kong Huan and Lingxue at the same time.

"What is the meaning of this! All the friends of my family now add up to less than 30!"

"But……"
