Will Beast Ear Girl Encounter Alien Ranch Story?

The answer is simple, to muddy the local waters. The Doctors call themselves liberators, not conquerors. They do not compromise with local forces, and they are not prepared to let them go. Every time they occupy a place, they need to establish a new ruling system , Trial criminals, pay off thieves and bandits, resume production.

And Teresis' distribution of weapons means that the clans, nobles, and landlords in these places all have greater or lesser armed capabilities. If there is no demand, it has to garrison troops everywhere, which will greatly weaken its available troops.

At the same time, if there are too many public security battles, the army will really be abolished, and it will take a long time to reorganize and train to adapt to the intensity and methods of fighting on the frontal battlefield—in other words, not only can it weaken the enemy's strength, but it can also reduce its combat effectiveness.

Of course, if the doctor is really suppressed and successfully completes this series of restoration of public security and production restoration, then the weakened combat power now will become stronger and more abundant human and material resources in the future.

It's just that Tracy can only choose the latter between being drowned and drowning in the neck. However, the mentality of these people who were left as abandoned children collapsed very quickly.

At the same time, the central mountain area, which is the poorest place in Kazdale, has nothing to grow, and only ore is the only output. However, foreign investors have destroyed all the land here in the form of violent mining. mineral resources.

Although the republic has abundant supplies, they cannot really be raised as pigs. Therefore, in order to solve the local livelihood problems, they had to hire the most powerful agronomist in Kazdale.

There are many mountains and mountains, and there is hardly any vegetation on the rocky slopes, and there are almost no traces of surface runoff. Drought, barrenness and decadence are the main colors here, and those metal cages are intertwined.

The steel cylinder penetrated deep into the earth's crust and the mountain, and the slender bones made a hollow clang in the wind.

The poor houses made of cloth and metal plates are piled up like messy garbage. Unlike the deformed prosperity of the mining area, here is poverty and decadence visible to the naked eye, without a shred of hope. Like a wild beast, the thing called a human has only a slight echo in this body.

Only when the relief convoy arrived and started unloading, did these people show something human. Of course, perhaps their long career as mercenaries made them a bit more orderly than pure mobs, like wolves group order.

As the chief wolf, the patriarch restrains everyone and receives food and supplies in order of seniority, male and female, and seniority, and receives them in the order of boys, young men, young women, middle-aged men, girls, and the elderly. Insufficient time, their order of survival.

"We have done what you asked for. Now, it's up to you to fulfill the contract." These mountain Sarkaz pay great attention to credibility and require others to abide by it.

"We brought twenty truckloads of food and supplies, but it's not free."

"How much do you want?" The other party has no intention of getting it for free. As long as these people's asking price is not excessive, then it is acceptable. In other words, at this time, they are willing to take the initiative to deliver the supplies to the door.

"No money is needed, but we will station an expedition team and working group here, and you need to cooperate with their work"

"You plan to rule us? The mountain people are free and do not accept any rule" They are not born anarchists and liberals, but every ruler in the past just exploited them and took the last bit of valuable After the things are taken away, all they have left is freedom.

Therefore, they do not accept any rule now, and refuse to surrender their only remaining freedom, which is why they are still staying in this dead place instead of relocating.

"It's not rule, but leadership. I think you need to obey the orders of your employers and leaders even if you are mercenaries?" Of course Kelsey knows how to deal with such dead-headed people, or these people just need to find the right way. It is much more comfortable than negotiating with those nobles.

"Well, you mean that you are going to be our leaders?" The other party's expression seemed to ease a little. For the mountain people, rule and leadership are two concepts. put their will above this land.

The latter is a kind of responsibility. As leaders, they are obliged to provide materials and money for the mountain people. In fact, this kind of responsibility is even far beyond the functions of a normal administrative organization. For example, if someone plans to get married, as a The leader's head and patriarch are obliged to arrange all the wedding expenses and the starting assets for the couple to start a family.

At the same time, when everyone can't find a job, they have to support everyone and find new jobs for everyone. Of course, just like the wolves, when the other party fulfills this responsibility, all individuals must also You must obey the other party's orders unconditionally, even if you sacrifice your life.

"Yes, we will provide you with work, materials and necessary supplies, but you must also obey our orders, as if you are in the Corps, isn't it too much?"

"Not too much." The mountain people discussed with each other for a while and nodded. After all, this is similar to the way they used to accept employment. The difference is that the place of work is in their hometown.

"So, how to calculate the task settlement?"

"According to your practice, we are not here to rule you, at least not now." Their resistance to the government is too strong, which can be regarded as the legacy of nobles such as the Sarkaz Demon King and Teresis for future generations burdens and debts.

"Then there is no problem. However, we need a contract as a guarantee. We don't trust any oral words. Only contracts and collateral in black and white are credible."

"Yes" is just a contract. As for the collateral, it is even simpler. Pulling the unsold sugar left over from the crop season from the farm solves all the problems.

After the contract was reached, the mountain people opened up part of their land and allowed some working groups to settle in, and these workers were repeatedly ordered to declare that they were not going to be masters and officials. Such an uncle's temper, even if he is unlucky to be killed by the mountain people, Kazdel will not deal with it or compensate him.

Of course, when it’s time to use their manpower, they are also asked not to be polite, because they have already paid for it. If you don’t use them at all, these people will feel that there is some kind of conspiracy. Those who have been mercenaries or have dealt with mountain mercenaries before.

"This place..." Xia Lin looked at the mountains in front of her, and was silent for a while, "What's wrong?" As the Ministry of Agriculture, Yelena obviously had to follow, "I can't do anything at all?"

"No, I don't know how to say it. This kind of terrain is just within the range of my equipment and expertise." The standard desert planetary landscape, the interstellar standard desert here is not like the Kazdel Desert, with some water, oasis and vegetation.

This kind of place with almost no organic matter and so barren that few insects can be found is the real desert planetary landform, while the Longnan desert should be called "tundra planetary landform", which is dominated by lichens, mosses and a small amount of vegetation. There are certain surface water sources and extremely crude ecosystems.

The desert planet is simply a forbidden zone for life, without all the resources to satisfy life activities. Compared with the real desert planet, at least the air here can breathe is very good.

"However, if I want to manage this place, my equipment is not very complete, so I can only use the most troublesome method." Xia Lin became interested. The previous area was hardly challenging at all. Basically, it was normal to start the machine and lay the soil. , sowing on the line.

Field management, fertilizers, and irrigation are very simple, because the water source is abundant, and the soil also has a lot of organic matter. The only difficulty is the source stone particle pollution.

Here, there is almost no soil, limestone and sandstone are the main landforms, there is almost no water source, organic matter is almost zero, insect ecology cannot support, and it is different from natural production, which is completely destroyed and polluted by man, which means There is also a large amount of industrial pollution and heavy metal residues, which are key governance projects in interstellar agriculture.

In the "Earth Renewal Project", the Star Alliance spent almost a century to restore the ecology of this kind of land on the earth. Countless experts and bigwigs have invested in it, and the patents and new theories are stacked higher than this mountain.

"Yelena, inform the agricultural department to bring over my full set of equipment. Sati City doesn't need such advanced things. In addition, prepare enough manpower and warlocks. I need aviation warlocks and drone teams. Rely on manpower and real time It’s a big project to put together the equipment.”

"What's the first step?" Kelsey asked, what was the first step, and where was he going to start the project.

"Blowing up the mountain, ah, don't get me wrong, it's not the kind of blowing up the whole mountain, it's about blowing up the limestone and sandstone on the surface, and cutting out some flat areas suitable for agricultural production from the irregular mountain." Xia Lin Draw a picture on the PNIS projection, "Then we need to build roads to ensure that heavy machinery can get on, and then we need to build a railway, two drone landing sites, and a material dispatching site." "These are all for industrial use. Bar?"

"Yes, the agricultural industry, and then began to lay foundations and ecological floors, crush the porous sandstone and recycle it into elemental silicon and aluminum, dissociate the oxygen in it, and remanufacture the carbon dioxide gas decomposed from the limestone into carbon dioxide and organic matter"

Xia Lin began to talk endlessly about the industrial process of treating rocks into soil, which requires all his equipment, and even some of the equipment that does not have to be solved by Terra's soil method. For example, the first requirement is to put The entire Corps of Mudstone was transferred to carry out production and construction.

"In order to supply energy for the equipment, I need to build at least twenty large-scale Originium power stations. At the same time, I also need a large number of solar power generation centers. I need at least 15 quarrying and crushing plants, which require a lot of heavy industrial equipment and manpower. , since Terra’s technology and industrial power cannot reach it, it can only be played without enough props.”

Crush mountains, chew rocks, suck up metal minerals and impurities, and then lay back the digested simple soil, use plants and modified insects for further processing, and finally establish preliminary breeding and laying seedlings by artificial covering soil, gas cultivation, etc. Center, gradually transforming this dead world into a mild agricultural landform.

"Also, I need to build a large number of irrigation and pressurization stations, and I need to dig deep wells to dig out the organic matter in the lower layer. In addition, various synthesis stations and agricultural processing stations need to be built one by one. I expect at least Use more than 20 manpower, and provide more than 100 million jobs." Because many places where interstellar industrial equipment should be used, only manpower can be used, which is still less.

"Manpower is too much."

"That's no way, I don't need so many manpower if you create an agricultural development base and a large planetary transformation spaceship for me, three to four hundred people are enough." Lao Xia spread his hands, "This is because some projects are unnecessary Yes, otherwise many places cannot be solved by manpower.”

"Like?"

"For example, you don't have spaceships to drop two comets on the location I want to create a freshwater lake like an inland sea, and then you don't have the ability to burn dozens of irrigation canals directly on the ground with ultra-high-power particle beams. I can’t drag an asteroid with a diameter of more than 150 kilometers from the asteroid belt, which is composed of solid methane, ammonia ice and nitrogen compounds, finely chop it up and throw it away as base fertilizer”

"The most important thing is that you don't need to build at least 2 atmosphere improvement devices on the ground to reduce the rocks composed of calcium oxide to oxygen and transform the atmosphere—you only need to do a small project at the end, This has been very easy.”

After all, Terra is an ecological planet. After all, the sunlight, atmosphere, and water source components are still normal, but the ecological damage caused by man is still acceptable. As long as it recovers to a certain extent, the vegetation will automatically fix the soil from the wind and sand .

Once the water and soil cycle is restored, it will slowly accumulate by itself, turning the rocky landform into a mountain forest—after all, the earth was such a planet in the distant ancient times, and life has gradually transformed it into what it is today.

"Moreover, we still have a lot of preliminary work to do. I don't have any hope for your data collection here." The preliminary work also includes checking the local precipitation pattern and precipitation, wind direction, wind and sand carrying amount, etc. Of course, Groundwater quality, water seepage and water retention capacity of mountain rocks and surface, etc.

"How many years will it take to solve it?" "It will take at least five years to complete the first phase of governance." Xia Lin thought for a while and gave a rough timetable. Whether it can be extended to a certain extent, of course, the shortest is five years.”

"It will take at least 30 years for the entire project to be in place." "Is this also the case on your side?"

"Almost, unmanned workstations are generally launched about 10 to 15 years in advance. After the second phase of the project is completed, the manned spacecraft and work base will be available. When I went, it was almost the middle of the fourth phase of the project. The fourth phase Once the project is completed, it can almost enter the acceptance stage, and then there will be minor adjustments.”

For example, changing the type of vegetation, performing landscape modification and long-term adjustment according to commercial use, is a long-term project, and it is a matter of slowly adjusting while operating normally.

If the planetary environment is good and all the projects go well, in the future such a planet with a good environment may also be converted from agricultural use to administrative living planetary use, and large-scale ground urban agglomerations and orbital elevators will be built.

Well, it’s not impossible to turn it into a planet for tourism, but the investment for that is a little bit higher. To be honest, if it weren’t for the damn sun, Terra, a place like this, would be of great tourist value to the Star Alliance. of.

Chapter 68 As long as you can run

Rocks, rocks, rocks, and rocks, the fine rain falls on the surface of the stones, soaking the sandstone, and slowly slides into the crevices along the grainy surface, and the fingers wrapped in gloves forcefully push these fine particles Stones, turned out the grayish-white and khaki-yellow slurry in the gap, slowly rubbing them with the fingertips.

"Well... the situation is not the worst. Compared with the destructive power of nature itself, man-made damage is still too weak." Xia Lin squatted on the edge of a small piece of flat ground in the mountains, Behind him, the tall Sarkaz warrior held an umbrella, completely ignoring the fact that half of his body was soaked by the rain.

"I said, you don't need to hold an umbrella for me, and I won't catch a cold." Terra's microorganisms and viruses have not yet experienced the indiscriminate killing of artificial immune bodies in the interstellar era, and those in the Star Alliance have evolved to the same level. Compared with the extremely concealed parasitic microbial environment, the infection caused by a little rain is not enough to shake his immune system.

Not to mention, the essence of a cold in the rain is the immune disorder caused by the hypothermia of the human body. For him, the hypothermia caused by the rain will not have any consequences at all. Even in a storm, you won't feel too much cold.

"You have your duties, and I have mine. We each need to be dedicated to our duties, so you don't need to care about me." The accompanying guard said, "Besides, you are doing things for us mountain people .”

Although I don't understand what this is doing, those machines that are digging mountains and leveling the land are not fake, and the strange man in front of him is indeed trekking between mountains and rivers like a mountain man. The barren mountains grow crops again.

Although the elders didn't believe it, they would not reject this kindness. Besides, he did use the collected stones and messy things to make a small flowerpot, and planted a little green spores. Maybe it was true. Can you change this barren land?

"The fungal spores need to be further improved. There is still some soil here. With the help of wind erosion and microorganisms, it may be possible to recreate the mud moss group through air nitrogen fixation and rock decomposition."

Moss and fungus colonies like dirty mud. After that, they will die, like layers of corrosive agents, turning the hills covered with stone chips and gravel into brown mounds, and then to start farming.

"I'm curious, what exactly are you looking for? You've traveled all over the mountains"

"I'm not looking for anything, I'm just... well, in your words, I'm reading the history and records of this land." Xia Lin pointed to the rocks on the ground, "These rocks and sand are the records The carrier of the past precipitation, sunshine, wind, and the animals and plants that once lived, even insects and bacteria will leave records on these 'pages', and I am sorting out and reading these information in order."

Planting something directly on a different planet is not like playing house in a hydroponic cabin. It requires a lot of knowledge and skills, and it is also very difficult. The harsh environment, terrible radiation, toxic atmosphere, and barren and dead ground, The prerequisite for transforming them is that you have to understand them and understand the history and past of this star.

When will it rain, when will the sun rise, what is the daily accumulated temperature, whether there has been primitive life, etc., and then based on this information and history, formulate transformation plans and appropriate biomes, and finally make life on the earth light-years away. This is not just a simple act of food production, but also a kind of research and progress.

Ordinary people will only take their eyes on the final output products for granted, but they will not realize that those are just a little bit of by-products. Even if food can be synthesized from the void one day, this kind of "agricultural" development is still the same. won't stop.

Star Alliance agriculture is a folk name, and the strict name is "planetary ecological engineering science", a serious undergraduate major in interstellar civilization, covering almost all disciplines related to the planet, ecology and biology. ——Of course, just as civil engineering is usually called ash-handling major, it seems that there is nothing wrong with this project being called "old farmer major".

"To farm, you have to figure out when it rains, how much it rains, how the water quality is, whether it will landslide, drought, or flood. Otherwise, when you are drying the millet, a heavy rain will dry you all year round. To figure this out, you have to read the local history or all the information in the past." Xia Lin sorted out her equipment and stared at the readings on the PNIS.

"At present, your rotten land is not completely hopeless. Really, there is still some soil in the cracks of the rocks. There are still possible peat layers and paleontological structures under the surface rock layers. As long as the roots are deep enough In the end, the usable organic matter can still be extracted. Compared with the real barren land, it is already considered..."Vibrant?

"I really don't understand the meaning of the textures of these rocks, but can you briefly explain?" "For example, here, the rock formations have traces of water erosion and obvious signs of low-temperature ice erosion, which means that at about .. ...." After looking at the readings and analysis results, "3 million years ago, this was a glacier covered by an ice layer at least 2 kilometers thick. Traces that have been clearly visible for thousands of years, if we dig a little more carefully, we can also find fossils containing shells and ancient organisms."

"That is to say, in the past, this place might even be part of the seabed, a piece of land?" For the Sarkaz people, this is simply incomprehensible.

"That's right, to be more precise, your Fenshui Mountains are also part of the seabed, and even the area under the cliff now, according to my discovery, is still part of the trench, which means..." means that it is possible to dig Oil and coal come out, and even a large amount of organic matter like combustible ice is buried deep below.

The entire mountain range is essentially a continent dominated by Ursas and Dayan collided with a continent dominated by Iberia and the current Agor people on the seabed, and the Iberia plate rushed to the top of the Wu-Yan plate , formed this fault-like mountain group, while the other side sank to the bottom of the sea, the land became the ocean, and the original ocean became the land.

"Okay, the work here has been completed. I'll go back and start making construction plans and planting and cultivation plans. Conventional crops can't be grown here. However, I have some... special equipment that can Make a batch for you."

Xia Lin collected all the tools and walked down the mountain. The guard shook his head and followed him with an umbrella. It was hard for him to understand why a pampered man who looked like he lived in a big city and hadn't done any heavy work was even better at walking on mountain roads. Half the mountain people are agile and free.

In the agricultural transformation base built among the mountains, Yelena used thin blades of grass to tease the bean-sized spherical insects in the plastic incubator. Planktonic insects, a kind of feed insects commonly used on starships, came from a certain The results of the scientific research on the ecological planet.

It is a forest planet with extremely high oxygen content, low nitrogen content, rich ecology, and vast vegetation. The only problem is that the plants are very aggressive, and there are a lot of toxic gases produced by local moss and vegetation floating in the atmosphere, so , it was burned clean and replanted with vegetation to become an earth ecological forest planet.

The original indigenous life was preserved as a sample, and the most useful of them was this planktonic insect, which synthesized organic matter through methane, light, carbon dioxide, and oxygen, and stored nutrients in their spherical bodies.

This kind of feed insect is used to feed fish, and it can be fed with improved black algae and non-toxic cyanobacteria to feed all kinds of freshwater fish or saltwater fish. For mountainous areas, the only aquaculture that can be carried out is probably fish farming. Only this A kind of feed insects and algae that can synthesize protein by drinking wind can survive here.

However, this requires a lot of water. Xia Lin is outside to check the amount of precipitation and the ability of the surface to retain water, and try to guide and deal with it, so that the water will accumulate, and the basins and deep pits in the mountains will return to their original state. Lakes and lakes, once there is water, life will survive very tenaciously.

With enough fresh water, an artificially restored wetland ecology can be created. With the technology of turning rocks and sand into soil, after five years, at least a layer of vegetation composed of drought-tolerant plants and moss will be covered here. After 10 years, everything If everything goes smoothly, there will be sparse woodland. After 20 years, a large number of shrubs will be added, and birds and small animals will inhabit here. A new wetland forest will be formed in up to 40 years.

The planktonic insects bit the blade of grass with their powerful pincers, and no matter how hard Yelena tried, they couldn't shake it off. This kind of insects didn't need much food from the outside world, but they also knew that their savings would be used to survive the drought and severe winter. The protein is a good meal for other species, so it has still evolved a very strong bite force.

In the Star Alliance, some children will raise strong planktonic insects and use them to fight. Whether it is fighting insects or throwing them at others, it is very useful-a bite, at least half an hour of crying.jpg

"Why are you interested in playing with bugs?"

"I'm just thinking about whether this thing is really edible?" Yelena said solemnly. She honestly said in the Ministry of Agriculture that her planting level is not very good and her agricultural knowledge is also very bad, but she is still very experienced in animal husbandry, probably because she used to In the days of eating potatoes and cabbage for half a year, the desire for meat brought about the learning motivation, right?

"I remember Carters didn't eat meat?"

"That's Rem Billiton's stupid X" Yelena said without hesitation, even real rabbits will eat meat when they encounter it, and even rabbits will eat lynx carcasses (really), "They While advocating some strange vegetarianism, some media and idiots claim that all creatures in the world are vegetarian, and eating meat is a lie made up by men."

"Eh..." Shi Huaiya is a bit confused. After all, as a big cat, no matter if it is a real cat or a cat with some genetic characteristics, it is a carnivore.

Her diet is similar to that of a blue thing, mainly sweets and meat supplemented with a small amount of vegetables supplemented with vitamins and cellulose. She also likes to eat fruits and dislikes staple foods such as bread—the lack of weight gain is purely due to her own metabolism. Fast reason.
