Chapter 144 Road Construction (Part 2)
Chapter 144 Road Construction Part 2
Before building the road, Lin Yan had already approached Bai Chen and asked her to prepare some thick notebooks for herself. She wanted to copy books.
Bai Chen naturally nodded in agreement and asked Lin Yan about printing. She had heard Lin Yan mention it before. Now that we have paper, some things require large quantities, and it is too slow to copy by hand.
Lin Yan was extremely happy, and it would be great to have Bai Chen share this matter. She explained the principles of bioprinting and engraving printing, etc., and asked Bai Chen to find a way to do it on his own.
As long as he has an idea, Lin Yan believes that Bai Chen will be able to do it.
She has personally selected a group of people who are persistent and tenacious, and will do their best to do whatever they want to do.
Just like Huang Ying, since she discovered the joy of herbal medicine, she established a medical research laboratory, immersed herself in it every day, and studied it sleeplessly.
Huang Ying has already extracted the poisonous poison from the poisonous scorpions and centipedes she brought back last year. She brought some with her for road construction this time and kept them under strict supervision until she encountered the ferocious beasts to try out the miraculous effects.
Lin Yan once went to Huang Ying's office and saw that it was filled with various records, countless bottles and jars were placed everywhere, and Huang Ying's figure was shuttled among them.
In fact, each of their offices seems to be similar and messy. But everyone is in awe of Huang Ying's house.
She can disregard her own safety, take risks, and be at the forefront of poison research. This spirit is worth learning.
Everyone is working hard in their own direction, which is not much different from Lin Yan's original expectations.
Early the next morning, Lan Yue saw that Lin Yan was in a good mood and asked casually: "Why are you so happy?"
"Is it so obvious?" Lin Yan raised her eyebrows. She thought it was the same as usual.
Lan Yue nodded, "You've been able to smile at everything you've seen since you woke up. It's very abnormal."
Looking around, everyone was busy. Lin Yan asked in a low voice: "Your mental power has reached Z level, right? Has there been any progress recently?"
"It took less than a month to reach Z level, and it can extend about eight meters. There is no other progress." Lan Yue said truthfully, and suddenly realized something, "Have you made a breakthrough in your mental power?"
Seeing how happy Lin Yan was this morning, Lan Yue felt that she must have guessed it right.
She also knew about Lin Yan's mental condition. The two communicated frequently and understood each other.
Lin Yan grinned and nodded, "I tried it last night and it actually worked. I can touch the real thing. It feels real, just like touching it with my hands."
"Is this really possible?" Lan Yue's eyes lit up, "So within the range that your mental power can extend, you can touch everything?"
If this is the case, it would be a qualitative leap. Before, their mental power could only be used to visit, but had no other function. With practice, personal perception abilities have increased, and the five senses have become more and more acute.
Lin Yan shook his head, "I just discovered that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't work. I need to practice more."
She thought the same thing last night, and immediately tried countless times, but the results confirmed that it was not the case. After asking Pang Bao, she learned that she might have just made some progress, and after practicing for a while, she would be able to do it completely.
As your practice progresses further, you will be able to control objects with your mental power.
At that time, the area covered by her mental power was her home field, and she could do whatever she wanted.
The two communicated in a low voice. Mao Mu and Lin Yun came over with breakfast. After listening to a few words, they were both happy for Lin Yan and at the same time they were more motivated to practice.
Mao Mu and Lin Yun are really like brothers when it comes to spiritual training. They were older when they were practicing and fell behind their friends. They are both still in R level now.
Looking at Lin Yan and Lan Yue, they knew in their hearts that they couldn't catch up even if they tried to flatter each other. They had accepted the facts, calmed down and practiced unremittingly.
After a few people finished eating, they started to work.
Lin Yan followed Lan Yue closely, and Mao Mu and Lin Yun followed them. The four of them formed a small team.
This time when the road was being built, there were so many people that Lin Yan and Lan Yue refused. Heitu sent people to protect them.
With Mao Mu and Lin Yun around, and each of them carrying self-defense weapons, they never stopped exercising and gained some ability to protect themselves.
Kurotsuchi tried his best to persuade him at the time, but looking at Lin Yan's firm eyes, he finally gave in. He could only let people pay attention secretly to make sure nothing happened.
Lan Yue is already 11 years old. She has grown up very quickly in the past two years. She is already 1.5 meters tall and looks like she has grown up.
Lin Yan was more than a head shorter than her, barely 1.1 meters tall.
Over the years, they all know the importance of keeping fit and keep exercising, and they are no longer the frail children they used to be.
A few people walked among the crowd, observing the surrounding terrain and taking notes from time to time. With the population growth rate of Sun City, this land will be opened up here in just a few years.
While the road was being built, they surveyed the terrain in advance to prepare for the future.
Lin Yan was writing something when she suddenly heard Lan Yue calling her.
"Come and see, what is this?" Lan Yue held a machete in her hand and was cutting down the bushes. When she got to the back, she discovered something hidden under the bushes.
There was a withered tree stump with something black growing out of it.
Lin Yan only glanced at it, and Pang Bao already gave the answer, "It's black fungus. It can be eaten and used as medicine."
"This is really edible, does it look dark?" Lan Yue reached out and touched it, "It's soft and slippery, and it's like leaves."
Lin Yan affirmed: "It's edible, and it's a good tonic. It's rich in nutrients. It can be fried or cooked. It's not easy to store fresh food. It can be stored for a long time if it is dried in the sun."
While she was talking, she had already started picking black fungus. She seemed to have overlooked some fungi, and she had not discovered them in the past few years.
Lin Yan thought about it and understood. Everyone's attention was focused on fresh vegetation, such as agaric mushrooms, which grew in dark, humid and inconspicuous places, and people subconsciously ignored them.
A new ingredient was discovered, and soon it spread throughout the world. During the break, everyone came to see what it looked like, and they could easily pick it back when they came across it.
In the wild, there are treasures everywhere, and bringing them back can add a little income to your family.
Every day of road construction was much the same. Lin Yan kept busy, digging soil and cutting trees, and worked with everyone.
By the end of February, the road had been built halfway, and we reached the edge of the Pika Plain, and beyond were mostly jungles and hills.
The trees are taller and more difficult to cut down.
But there are also advantages. Under the tall trees, where the sun does not shine, the vegetation grows sparsely, making it easier to clean up.
Some people saw the felled trees being wasted, and took advantage of their free time to build a few wooden houses on the roadside, where they could rest in later on the way to the mines.
Lin Yan thinks this is a good idea. When the road to the mine is repaired, the total length of the journey will be about 320 miles. If a person walks 60 miles a day, it will only take five or six days to reach it. Compared with
It turned out to save more than ten days of time.
A round trip takes less than half a month, and the time for transporting ore will be greatly shortened in the future. This road is well worth building.
There are wooden houses on the roadside, and people on the road also have resting places. You can consider building wooden houses at regular intervals, so that sleeping outdoors at night can be safer.
