Chapter 272 Agriculture and Transportation

Zhongshan stood on the grass, waving to the black shadow falling from the sky, and the carrier saw his movement slowly descending.

This is a carrier ship that should be deployed in the territory.

The territory's transportation capacity is becoming increasingly scarce. The transportation capacity provided by a few beasts of burden is only a drop in the bucket for the daily carrying capacity that the territory needs.

At Chongshan's request, Ji Lin confirmed that all nearby threats had been cleared. Allocate a small amount of carrier ship production share to the territory to reduce the territory's transportation and management pressure during summer harvest and planting.

A cargo aerostat has a load capacity of nearly two liters and can carry a large amount of materials back and forth between two places at a slow speed without taking up any space on the highway.

There is no need for a special parking spot. The aerostat can completely float on the lawn at a height of several centimeters, allowing porters to unload and load cargo onto the ship stably.

The carrier ships used in the territory use an integrated process to reduce the cost of additional parts that need to be processed for multiple structures/modules. The number of processed parts and construction accuracy are both relatively reduced by 20%.

This kind of carrier that serves cargo does not need to emphasize the internal protection performance, earthquake resistance and strike resistance like the military-class carriers. Instead, it focuses on improving flight stability, maintainability, and single-ship carrying capacity.

The Territory's Seagull-class cargo ship is more like a large, fat oval, with a metallic spine exposed at the top of the oval, which is the floating stone engine.

What restricts the production of air islands and territorial aerospace ships is the limited territorial capacity.

The blacksmith shop is undergoing industrial/production equipment upgrades, replacing the originally low-yield crucible smelting with blast furnaces. These large furnaces with bellows provide a large amount of pig iron and wrought iron for the territory, and finally make steel through the steel filling method.

The popularity of steel materials has reduced the workload of rune craftsmen to a certain extent and redirected their production capacity to areas where it is more needed.

For example, the floating stone engine can only be carved and manufactured by rune craftsmen, and controls the feedback circuit of the floating stone engine.

"Mr. Chongshan, all kinds of seeds that the Lord here asked me to transport have been confirmed to be able to be planted in the territory."

Soldiers in gray military uniforms and guards in blue uniforms jumped from the floating ship and saluted the waiting affairs officer.

At present, the best aerospace ship pilots and aerospace ship maintenance engineers in the territory are all from the military. When it comes to maintenance alone, the researchers in the engineering school may not necessarily be as capable as this group of ground staff who have become good doctors.

Anyone who spends a month repairing an airship that requires a round of maintenance every time it flies can figure it out 귷깇굛. And they also need to teach this experience to the pilots and maintenance personnel selected from the territory who have a strong desire to drive. After completing this task, they can return to the team and return to the empty island.

The guards are responsible for transporting and maintaining the order of the aerospace ship as well as tools.

Zhongshan nodded to them and called the leaders of the various agricultural groups behind him to gather and prepare to move the seeds.

"By the way, is the new seed that the lord mentioned is inside?"

There was a trace of confusion on the soldier's face, and then he took out a receipt form from his arms and handed it to Zhongshan.

"This is the receipt. All the newly added seeds are on it. The lord said that you will know after showing it to you."

Zhongshan nodded, began to look at the receipt form in front of him, and then showed a smile. The Territory Production Department has pre-allocated the land where each plant needs to be planted, and they are now waiting for the seeds to arrive.

A type of crop is placed on the first line of the receipt, followed by the type of seed and the area sown.

‘Soybeans: Estimated planting area, 5,000 acres’

Five thousand acres of soybean seeds.

Ji Lin was looking for the seeds of the first generation crop that could be redeemed by the system, soybeans.

Soybeans are used to produce various soy products, extract soybean vegetable oil, brew soy sauce and extract protein.

Of course, Ji Lin mainly values ​​​​the function of 돗녦 not only for processing into non-staple food and staple food, but also for extracting large amounts of oil.

Soybeans are the final piece of the puzzle to make up the territory's base crop.

Nowadays, the territory only relies on fishing fish to obtain oil, which is already in short supply, and the prices of various oils sold in the lord's market are not low. There are 13,000 mouths in the territory, and the food, salt, sugar, and non-staple food consumed in a month are already a number that makes 그's scalp numb when he looks at it.

It is necessary to ensure that all 그all 그 can eat meat, and 껩 must ensure that all 그 can eat well.

When the first season of soybeans is harvested, a soybean processing plant will be built in the territory. He will provide the territory's residents with a series of soy products such as tofu, dried tofu, shredded tofu, tofu puffs, and yuba.

Wheat, rice, soybeans, and sugar cane are the major staple crops in the territory.

There is no shortage of rice, flour, grains and oils.

Necessary daily necessities can be completely self-sufficient, and the territory's canteen also has a variety of food rotations. If this continues, it will be possible to open a restaurant run by the government.

"Wait, this pasture?"

Zhongshan scanned the order and found that there was another line at the bottom of the receipt form.

‘Forage: 50 acres’

"This new plant was added by Lord 놆. He specifically told me that the growth cycle of this plant is shorter. 녦 can be planted in newly opened fields and no pre-planning is required."

The soldier in gray scratched his head and explained to Zhongshan.

"He said that this kind of plant is not suitable for planting on the empty island, and he also sent it to the territory to plant it to see the situation. This batch of pasture is only five acres. If it performs well, he will determine whether to continue to expand the planting area."

"Is that so?"

Chongshan touched his chin, took out a notebook and wrote down the new expansion plan. The 20,000 mu originally reserved for the territory was not enough. The summer planting plan has increased the agricultural area to 30,000 mu, which can provide up to 10,000 jobs.

The population growth rate far exceeds his good assessment plan. These new people must be put into work. It is absolutely not allowed to be idle at home.

Rights and obligations are equal. They must work for the territory.

He is even considering whether to increase the planting area of ​​the agricultural area to 15,000 mu and leave up to 15,000 agricultural jobs. Let the current batch of people be a little tired when sowing, but leave enough cultivated land for the new people to work in production.

The plan for the year originally required one agricultural group to be responsible for cultivating 10,000 acres of land. 15,000 acres... at least 11,250 people would be involved in production.

And the multiple food processing industries and composting and public health projects surrounding agriculture are another troublesome matter.

Compared with these, the five acres of pasture are nothing.
