Chapter 1886: Finding Beaumont
In fact, Marin, the chemical half-hanger, did not know that both soybean oil and tung oil can be processed into biodiesel. However, the use of catalysts and reaction control are more complicated. Marin only understands middle school chemistry and does not understand biodiesel technology, so he did not expect to process ordinary vegetable oil into biodiesel. He knew that the oil of Jatropha curcas fruit could process biodiesel, but he only happened to watch the TV program of the Agricultural Channel.
In order to find the Jatropha curcas, Marin opened a reward of 5,000 gold coins and recruited 10 expeditions to search for the Jatropha curcas in the southern jungle of North America.
Of course, if you rely solely on the expedition, it is completely for them to die. Therefore, in order to cooperate with the expedition's actions, Marin intends to establish a colony on the southern coast of North America, that is, the northern shore of the Gulf of Mexico, as a base for the expedition's operations on land. After all, supplies are used up during the expedition, or someone is injured or sick, something needs a stronghold to solve the problem. Otherwise, it is to send those explorer doors to death.
Spread out the white paper, and Marin relied on memory to draw a map of later generations. Then he set his sights on the Gulf Coast ...
"Where is the colony set up?" Marin looked at the map and lost in thought ...
From an agricultural point of view, New Orleans, which was originally set up at the mouth of the Mississippi, is the best colony. This is because it will help us to rise upstream from the Mississippi River in the future and control the best agricultural areas in North America.
The Mississippi River is the fourth largest river in the world, second only to the Yangtze River. However, the Mississippi River Basin is one of the world's three largest black soil regions, and the other two are the Ukrainian Great Plains and the Northeast Plain.
However, the black land area in Northeast China is only 1.03 million square kilometers, and the winter is extremely cold. Only one season of grain can be planted. The rest of the time is spent on kang cat winter. Because hiding in Kang all year round, the cat is bragging, so the Northeastern later became able to talk and talk about Tereso. No way, people hide in the house for bragging for half a year. Every year, it's strange to have a bad mouth.
The black land in the Mississippi River Basin, with an area of up to 1.2 million square kilometers, is larger than the black land in the Northeast. Moreover, the area where people are located is relatively warm and can be cooked twice a year, which is more than that of black cattle in the northeast.
Therefore, if you want to farm, the Mississippi River Basin is determined to be taken down.
However, Marin is not short of food and does not need to engage in farming. What he lacks is energy, and what is farming is secondary.
"Energy ..." Marin thought for a moment and suddenly stole his eyes to the northwest of the Gulf of Mexico. In later generations, there is a city familiar to Chinese people-Houston.
Although the manager's brain was ill and talking afterwards, it is undeniable that many NBA fans regard the Houston Rockets as their home team. The reason is that Yao Ming spent his entire NBA time there.
When Yao was playing in the NBA, Houston has become the most attractive city for Chinese people, and is more famous in China than New York.
Marin was still in high school at that time, and often skipped classes to watch Lao Yao playing. He is a pseudo-fan, he does not bird those NBA native spheres, only looks at old Yao. Without Lao Yao, he didn't take a look. Jordan took off the No. 23 jersey, he didn't even know ...
No way, Marin has black face blindness, it looks similar to all old blacks. He recognizes people by identifying facial features, but black people ’s faces are as black as carbon, and they ca n’t see details, so he is blind to black faces ... only Kobe ’s kind of “pointy” Like the special face of Abao on the Avenue of Stars, Marin can remember it. The popular round black face like Jordan, he didn't know when he took off his shirt.
However, Marin's favorite place this time was not the famous Houston of later generations, but the Beaumont 137 kilometers east of Houston ...
What does Beaumont appeal to Marin? Because there is a spindle-top oil field near Beaumont. The Lucas well there is the world's first self-injecting well. Moreover, at its peak, the daily spray of 10,000 tons of crude oil and the spray column height of 50 meters scared individuals ...
Although it is said that the depth of the spindle-top oil field is several hundred meters, with the current technology of the North Sea State, it cannot be drilled at all. But Marin did not plan to develop the Spindle Oil Field now, but took the place first. Then, tell the engineering technicians that there are large oil fields hundreds of meters underground, which is enough.
According to the current technological development speed of Beihai, this huge oil field may be developed in a few decades. Because of the lack of modern oil pumping machinery, self-injecting wells such as the Lucas well in the Spindle Top oil field have become the first choice. If 10,000 tons of oil is sprayed on a daily basis, how many pumping units are worth the work ...
With enough oil, Marin is able to start more single-cylinder diesel engines. At that time, the walking tractor will become a very common agricultural machine. Unlike now, because of lack of fuel, single-cylinder diesel engines can only be used for scientific research, at most for warships, but also small warships ...
Although there is a biodiesel plan, in the future, cheaper petroleum diesel will eventually be used to replace the more expensive biodiesel. In other words, biodiesel is just a transition at present. When Beihai State develops technology and can open wells hundreds of meters deep, biodiesel will come to an end temporarily. After all, the costs of the two are different. One is planted with a lot of manpower and material resources, and the other is sprinkled underground. The cost of the two is not an order of magnitude ...
……
Therefore, to establish a colony near Beaumont can not only look for the Jatropha curcas, but also find the spindle oil field by the way.
The characteristics of the spindle top are still very easy to find-a highland with a smell of sulfur, just near Beaumont ...
Exploration team can find this place first while looking for Jatropha. Then, Marin circled this place and ordered the engineering department to find a way to drill there. How deep can it be drilled, how deep can it be drilled, failing to learn a lesson ... come one day, that self-blowout will spray a lot of oil ... …
In addition to finding the jatropha tree and determining the position of the spindle top, there is another use here, that is-as a springboard for you to enter the North American prairie!
This is Texas, which is the southern part of the North American prairie. Although the climate along the southernmost coast is relatively humid and a bit foresty, as long as you leave the Gulf of Mexico a little north, you can quickly enter the North American prairie.
Why enter the North American prairie? Find a bison!
Before the arrival of the European colonists, there were tens of millions of bison on the North American prairie. That is the source of massive beef and cowhide!
Marin had already determined a war plan to **** women from the Aztec Empire in Mexico. He planned to **** millions of women. Then, he gave birth to mixed-race children with the men in Beihai, as a source of labor for Beihai to develop North America.
However, if we increase millions of people at once, there will be millions of children in the future. So many people have insufficient food. Therefore, at the beginning, the food gap was huge. Even if the North Sea country has a large grain output, it will be difficult to afford the food for millions of surplus people at once.
After all, food was produced by people in this era. The food produced by the 400,000-400,000 strong soldiers of the North Sea State is enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people. Millions of people, or even two million people, are unable to catch up.
So ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ During that transition period, Marin intends to send cavalry to the North American prairie to hunt the bison, kill the bison in large quantities, and make them into jerky as a food supply for the sudden increase of the population.
A bison can get thousands of pounds of meat, which can be dried for one adult to eat for one year. Even if one million people are suddenly increased, as long as one million bison are hunted, the food shortage can be overcome. One million bison, compared to the base of tens of millions of heads, is not much, it has an impact on the ethnic group, but it is still within the acceptable range.
Moreover, Marin will let the cavalry shoot the old American bison and extra bulls as much as possible, and try not to touch the calves and cows. In this way, it will not affect the continuation and reproduction of the bison group. Anyway, those old bison will die millions of themselves every year, it is better to be hunted and killed as beef jerky in the North Sea country. Otherwise, it will be wasted ...
In summary, whether it is looking for jatropha, or looking for the spindle-top oil field, or hunting for bison in North American prairies, Beaumont is an excellent starting point.
Therefore, Marin made a big stroke and ordered 10 expeditions to enter Beaumont. Even, he can give coordinates. Because of the relationship between Old Yao, Marin can even remember the latitude and longitude of Houston and some local natural characteristics. Beaumont is 137 kilometers east of Houston, and there is a distinctive spindle roof nearby ... As long as the expedition looks for it, it should be easy to find the place of Beaumont ...
