Everyone was a little confused. Li Dabiao shook his head and said, "We can just use firewood to cook. Gas tanks are not convenient on the island."

"I'm not asking you to cook for me. As I said earlier, there are 500,000 enemies. Although they won't pay attention to us for the time being, as we grow bigger and stronger, fierce battles will break out sooner or later. Once the battle starts, we will need a large number of artillery. Artillery is expensive and we can't afford it. The few things we have are not enough to buy artillery shells. I'll draw a diagram for you and you can follow it."

Liu Xia Lian simply drew a stick figure of steel pipes, gas tanks, fertilizers, sugar, etc.

Everyone who saw it was confused. Zhao Yong took a look and said, "Gas tank cannon?"

"Yes, the five-kilogram small canister has a range of three kilometers. The powerful large canister can reach 1.5 kilometers. With the steel balls from bicycles in it, the destructive power is amazing. It is very suitable for close combat and street fighting, and is very lethal to unarmored infantry."

Everyone gasped. There was actually such a big cannon, made entirely by hand. Although its range was a little off, it was cheap to make. Once it was put into use on a large scale, the effect would be amazing.

Chen Ziguang was very happy: "With such a powerful weapon, we are not afraid of the large number of enemies. First, build 50 cannons and store 2,000 shells. Once the enemy comes, we can hold out for a while."

Liu Xia Lian drew a picture of a hand-rubbed rocket launcher and handed it to Li Da Biao.

"I only know the general idea. You have to do the details. You must be careful during the experiment and don't be careless. It's okay to waste some materials, but don't hurt the technicians."

"It's not a big problem. We have talents in this field in our mine. But boss, how come you know everything? I didn't expect that you can make rocket launchers by hand. After the potion is made, we can use the four-wheeled agricultural vehicles produced by Daqiang Heavy Industry. They have strong mobility and firepower, and our strength will definitely be taken to a new level. Now wait for the construction to be completed, and then start large-scale production immediately. Mining and planting cannot be left behind."

Ten thousand acres of rice, three harvests a year, has an output comparable to that of 30,000 acres in Northeast China, and it is very expensive fragrant rice. The resources are quite good.

Liu Xia Lian tapped the table lightly: "This is the first island in Nanyang. Everyone keep working hard. We will need iron ore, copper ore, gold and silver ore in the future. Even if it is an island without a mine, we still need it. We should think carefully about how to develop it and how to hold on to the results. That's all for today. The necessary materials will be delivered as soon as possible."

On the surface, Chen Ziguang and Li Dabiao have the heaviest tasks, but in fact, Zhao Yong has the heaviest task, and needs to recruit people from the country. It is easy to get thousands of soldiers, but it is difficult to get a general. Small islands are simple, just mining and farming. If it is a large island, it will require internal management. If an effective internal organization is built, improving the allocation mechanism will become the top priority.

When a business becomes bigger, it is no longer just one person’s business, it becomes everyone’s business.

At noon the next day, Liu Xia Lian brought Daya, Erya and Dian Yan to the rubber forest.

As soon as I entered the woods, I was stunned. In this plantation, rubber trees as thick as bowls were lined up neatly in rows.

There are few weeds on the ground, let alone mushrooms and wild vegetables.

Liu Xia Lian smiled and said, "I miscalculated. I wanted to chase the mountain, but it seems there is nothing."

It turns out that the rubber trees grow very aggressively, and other plants in the forest can hardly survive. After walking for a while, there was nothing worth seeing in the mountains except a few pheasants.

Daya suggested: "Let's go to the sea. Sister will go into the sea to catch lobsters for us."

Arya clapped her hands happily: "Great, great, I haven't eaten lobster for a long time, garlic lobster."

"Okay, let's go catch some lobsters and see if that killer whale is nearby."

Erya was still very conservative. She waved her hand to her husband Dian Yan and said, "Go back. It's not appropriate for the three of us to go swimming in the sea."

"Then what about the boss's safety?"

"Okay, then stay away."

Catching lobsters requires a certain location. It must be a rocky bay with calm winds and reefs on the seabed so that the lobsters have a place to hide and can be caught.

It’s cold even with a thick cotton-padded jacket in Changbai Mountain, but it’s really nice here, a swimsuit is just right for going into the sea.

The three of them came to a quiet bay. The water was very shallow, only about two or three meters deep, and they could clearly see the colorful fish on the seabed.

Erya is not very good at swimming, so she sat on the shore holding her gun and paying attention to safety.

Liu Xia Lian and Er Ya changed into their swimsuits and dived in.

As soon as you get into the water, you will get something. Daya used a clamp to catch a swimming crab from under a rock, and put it in the bag.

Liu Xia Lian dug out a big lobster from under the reef, but the lobster knew that it was about to die, so it backed away as much as possible. However, it did not dare to use too much force for fear of tearing the lobster apart, so it could only pull it out gently.

Daya was shocked. She had to come up to breathe every few seconds, but Liu Xialian didn't seem to need to breathe much. A few minutes later, a big lobster weighing four or five pounds was thrown onto the shore. Erya was quick and put the lobster into the bag.

"Daya, you catch them near the shore. I'll go to the deeper water. There are more people here today, so we can catch more."

If you go a little deeper, you will find so many lobsters on the seabed that there are almost any under every rock. They are all huge, weighing four or five kilograms, or even six or seven kilograms, and are longer than your arms.

Liu Xia Lian caught seven big lobsters, and Daya caught two lobsters and four swimming crabs.

Just as they were about to go back, Erya pointed at the sea and exclaimed, "Look, that big black fish is coming again."

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the big killer whale from last time. However, the water in the area where Liu Xia Lian was was too shallow, so it did not dare to come over. It tumbled and jumped dozens of meters away, and seemed to have recognized Liu Xia Lian.

Liu Xia Lian went ashore and found a long strap, which was tied to a killer whale. It must have come here to take her to fight with a group of sharks.

"Da Ya, Er Ya, take it back to the kitchen and let them cook. I'm going to play with Hu Zi for a while."

Both of them were stunned. What kind of operation was this? It was as if they were riding on a killer whale and holding a sharp purple lightning sword in their hands. Only a treasure of this kind of divine sword would not be afraid of the invasion of sea water.

Hu Zi and Liu Xia Lian charged at high speed, reaching speeds of 60 to 70 kilometers per minute. They were basically flying over the sea, and soon they arrived at the area where great white sharks appeared.

Hu Zi moved so quickly that before Liu Xia Lian could see clearly, he had already caught a seal.

It's so ferocious, it bites the whale in half with one bite. No wonder it's called a killer whale, it's really as ferocious as a tiger.

The tragically dead seal was just Huzi's bait for catching sharks. The blood dyed the sea red and spread quickly.

Hu Zi was lying quietly, and the first to arrive at the battlefield was a small Kala shark weighing two or three hundred kilograms.
