Chapter 1196 Sun and Moon Innovation, Earth Shaking!
On modern earth, the price of building one kilometer of cement road is about 400,000.
Depending on the complexity of the terrain and material requirements, the price will fluctuate slightly.
Based on 150 kilometers of cement road, the cost of this road alone exceeds 60 million.
Of course, this is for modern times.
In the wasteland, both materials and labor are extremely cheap.
Like the first step in building a cement road: grassroots cleaning.
If we used pure manpower to clean up in modern times, we would have to pay at least 500 a day for someone to be willing to do this work.
But in Tianyuan Territory, when it was first built, the salary was basically equivalent to nothing. If the village gave out two more pancakes every day, a lot of people would be willing to clean it up.
The other material is even simpler.
As the base material of cement pavement, gravel blocks are everywhere in the territory, and there are even more in the dense forests to the west. According to the current demand for materials, they can last for at least several years.
The output of silicate cement laid on gravel has never been in short supply, and even now the output of the Imperial Building Materials Factory has exceeded the territory's demand, and it has also supplied part of the supply for the reconstruction of the western suburbs of Pingtan Shelter.
There is no shortage of this or that.
That’s why we have this wide and flat cement road!
“The territory is so big!”
Fan Jing lay beside the window and looked out the window, his face full of shock and yearning.
There is also a large area of uncultivated wasteland around the Taihu territory, which is divided into controlled areas by the lord Lao Zhan, waiting for manpower to reclaim it.
But actually?
No one dared to go out too far. Fan Jing himself went out once, but he was a little frightened after being three kilometers away from the gathering place.
Rather than saying that it is a controlled area of the territory, it is actually a wilderness full of dangers.
It was completely different from the land now wrapped behind a warning wall.
Wherever you can see now, you can see the upright 'territory'.
"The existing cultivated land area in the territory is about 50,000 acres, of which there are nearly 600 acres of greenhouses. Even in winter, it can still steadily produce fresh vegetables to supply the needs of residents and surrounding shelters, continuously bringing wealth to the territory. ”
Yu Lingjie was still introducing, proudly recounting the past few months.
In addition to the skyrocketing population, the development of other parts of the territory is also not slow.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Regarding clothing production, two corresponding flow factories have been built in Longteng Village.
With the assistance of semi-automatic machines, hundreds or thousands of new pieces of clothing can be produced every day.
Although the materials chosen are either cotton harvested before winter, fibers obtained through chemical synthesis, and some wild hemp picked from the dense forest.
But compared to other places that still use the most primitive places to make clothes, Tianyuan territory is almost several eras ahead.
Food wise.
Not to mention the area of cultivated land, not to mention greenhouses, not even to mention the large and small stalls and hawkers.
The 'Future Cannery' that was built when the Red Spider Caravan arrived has now been enlarged dozens of times in size, with as many as 300 employees being recruited.
It covers a wide range of business areas.
Not only can it produce all kinds of canned and pickled foods with a shelf life of more than three years.
The raw materials can also be combined with other seasonings to produce a wide variety of prepared meals with excellent taste, providing a taste that is about 90% better than freshly made on the spot.
Hunter, Aldrich and Kevin came once in mid-March.
The three of them only tasted half full, and then resolutely replaced all the nutritious meals in the shelter with prepared meals from the future cannery.
Although from a nutritional point of view, the proportions of prepared dishes may be far less nutritious than meals.
But the taste gap between the two can make people completely forget that there is such a thing.
And the most important thing is that the cost of nutritious meals is already very low, but this pre-made meal can still achieve two-thirds of the cost of nutritious meals.
Based on the current population of 80,000 people in the Pingtan Refuge and three meals a day, the amount of supplies saved is quite significant.
In addition, the rich and diverse tastes and dishes can not only make the residents praise the manager's enlightenment, but also make the shelter's accounts more beautiful.
Why not do it?
Many managers of shelters in the southern suburbs are actually also interested.
It's just that after joining the alliance, the price of the goods is the friendly price, which is stuck on the cost line.
The price now is about the same as nutritious meals, which feels like a bit of a disadvantage.
This is why prepared meals have not yet become popular in other shelters.
However, with this layer of foreshadowing, once the territory opens a policy to lower the price of prepared meals for external shelters, it will only be a matter of time before it captures the daily meal market of other shelters.
No worries about food and clothing.
Accommodation and transportation are naturally no problem.
After several rounds of development, it is no longer the era when dozens of people crowded into Datong Shop.
"The village provides free eight-person dormitories, as well as paid family suites and individual rooms."
"Even if you can afford it, the village also provides an independent private courtyard with three houses, which is comparable to a small villa on earth."
"Of course, I know you want to ask how to stay in the lord's shelter."
"Simple, this has to mention the unique contribution system of our Tianyuan Territory."
The receptionists have long been prepared for high-frequency questions from newcomers.
After saying that, Yu Lingjie was already prepared and started to take out the leaflets from the small satchel she carried with her.
"In addition to the daily tasks that occasionally reward contribution points, anyone who can complete the inherent tasks on the flyer can also get points."
"Get 500 points and you can enter the Tianyuan Dungeon!"
"Dungeon!"
Fan Fuzheng was still thinking about how to use his knowledge in the main competition. He was surprised when he heard this term.
Speaking of Su Shen's shelter, it was a mystery from beginning to end.
After all, when others were still in small wooden houses and small broken basements, his shelter was already made of stone, strong enough to withstand artillery bombardment.
Everyone racked their brains, but couldn't figure out what happened.
As for now, it has evolved into a dungeon, which seems quite reasonable.
"The first person to reach level 10 on each route can receive 200 contribution points!"
After taking the flyer, Fan Fuzheng quickly saw the contribution points he could receive.
Not much, but it is almost enough to get half of the points to enter the dungeon!
In addition, Fan Fuzheng also saw several reward items that he had a chance to get.
For example, if a technology breakthrough occurs, 100-2000 points can be awarded depending on the degree of the breakthrough.
For example, if an outstanding contribution is made to a certain industry, a minimum of 100 and a maximum of 2,000 points can also be awarded.
"It is difficult for others to settle in the underground city, but it should not be a problem for me."
Before coming here, Fan Fuzheng did not have this confidence.
But after learning about the outpost base recently, the lost confidence has returned again.
Especially after seeing the need for an excellent architect in Tianyuan Territory, Fan Fuzheng's desire to quickly gain a foothold has become stronger.
"The next competition is a key opportunity"
At first glance, architecture seems to have no use in wild survival.
But in actual practice, it has many uses.
For example, habitat construction, how to build the most reasonable camp in the simplest way, facing various complex terrain environments.
For example, resource utilization, architecture focuses on the effective use of resources in the design and construction process, and lists a detailed list, so that it can be combined mindlessly according to the public notice.
There are also various small mechanisms and traps for security.
The reason why the Fan family has been able to live safely until now is that they have used these life-saving gadgets.
Following this line of thought, Fan Fuzheng was too lazy to continue listening to Yu Lingjie's introduction, and left it all to the two children and his wife who were interested.
More than an hour later, the bus gradually slowed down.
In the distance, a modern town crouching on the ground like a giant beast finally revealed its full appearance.
If the development of Hope Village is divided into four stages.
The first stage, the initial stage.
When the territory was just established, the only facade of the village was some prefabricated houses made of colored steel, which barely allowed everyone to have a place to live.
As for comfort and safety, there is no need to think about it at all.
Once it rained, the muddy roads in the village were all muddy, and you would be covered in mud after traveling ten meters.
The second stage, the growth stage.
Color steel houses were gradually eliminated and replaced by brick-concrete houses.
The muddy roads also began to be replaced by gravel roads, with a basic village structure.
Different factories sprang up, capable of producing all kinds of materials needed for the development of the territory.
The lives of the people in the territory were no longer as tight as before, and gradually began to improve.
The third stage, the development period.
At this stage, the color steel houses had been completely eliminated.
The gravel roads were also replaced by cement roads and asphalt roads, and there was a complete drainage structure.
The factory was moved to Longteng Village, which further highlighted the focus of the village's life.
The square at the entrance of the village was getting busier and busier, as if returning to Earth.
Even the land around the village was developed in large pieces, and began to flourish.
In the first three stages, the development of Hope Village was not fast.
It took about seven months to rebuild a human village on the wasteland from scratch.
But it was the development of various industries in the early stage that laid the foundation.
Only then did the rapid development period of the following five months come about, driving the entire territory to soar in one fell swoop.
Go straight to the fourth stage, the soaring period!
Today, the area of Hope Village has been expanded again and again, and it has already increased more than ten times compared to the beginning.
The streets leading into the village are rarely wide, nearly ten meters.
The main road is a shiny black asphalt road, which serves as the facade.
The secondary road is a flat cement road with low cost and durability.
Compared with the simple layout of the outpost, the layout of Hope Village is undoubtedly much more sophisticated. The overall buildings are scattered outward in a grid, so that residents can reach their destinations conveniently and quickly no matter where they are in the village.
Just after getting off the car, a group of newcomers were stunned in the reception area.
Looking from a distance, the buildings on both sides of the streets in the village are staggered and the spacing is moderate.
There are small buildings with three or four floors, and bungalow courtyards hidden in the middle of the small buildings.
The overall structure is a bit like a resort, which looks loose and not as tense as other territories in the New World.
However, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway.
When Fan Fuzheng opened his structural vision and looked over, large areas of dark green showed everything.
"The person who designed this place is not simple."
The seemingly messy streets and alleys are actually long and narrow. The width is limited by the terrain and kept within a relatively narrow range, which is conducive to the concentrated deployment of troops in a limited geographical space and effectively blocking invaders.
The high and low buildings are also very useful. The high buildings are naturally good commanding heights, which can monitor the blocks below.
In addition, many escape gaps are deliberately left, which are placed under the commanding heights.
This ordinary small village is full of mysteries!
"I can't catch up!"
The more Fan Fuzheng observed, the more he sighed.
The so-called sitting in a well and watching the sky is nothing more than this. Staying in the small Taihu territory, he can hardly learn anything.
Especially the construction of "characteristic buildings" and "characteristic structures" suitable for wasteland.
These things are almost not studied on the earth. If he wants to make achievements, he has to keep exploring and trying.
But where is the small Taihu territory where he can try and make mistakes?
Those people on the world channel are right.
Only such a large territory is the stage for geniuses!
"Master Fan, I've been waiting for a long time."
The captain of the guard who received the verification message did not dare to neglect it and hurried over.
He gave a look to the little guard behind him and took over all the luggage and sundries in the hands of the Fan family.
"The meeting held by the lord today has started for a while, and there will be another one tomorrow."
"Do you think you should go to rest and wait first, or now..."
"I'll go now, not waiting for tomorrow."
When he heard that the meeting was not over yet and there was another one tomorrow, Fan Fuzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
If the meeting had ended, he would not dare to bother the lord alone with this idea, and he could not help but be nervous.
"You guys take a stroll in the village and rest first, and wait until I finish the meeting, and then go to choose a place to stay together."
"I know, you can go with peace of mind." Zheng Yali nodded repeatedly, and naturally understood the root cause of the family's treatment.
If her man can be valued in the territory, then the future will naturally be a bright road.
But if you only focus on the current enjoyment and miss the opportunity, it will be difficult to find it again in the future.
"Okay, the meeting will be held on the B6 floor of the underground city, please!"
Fan Fuzheng became more excited when he heard that it was in the underground city.
Following the captain of the guard, the two of them ran towards the direction opposite the village.
After a while, they saw the first floor of the underground city exposed on the ground from a distance.
To be fair, compared with the magnificent warning wall, the prosperous outpost base, and the Hope Village just analyzed.
This strongest shelter that countless survivors dream of, at first glance, does not seem to have any magical features.
Or to put it more bluntly, it looks very ordinary.
There is no alloy door several meters thick, and no complicated inspection procedures.
The entrance and exit are just exposed on the ground, and you can even see the shops opened on the first floor.
Is this an underground city?
Fan Fuzheng shook his head and subconsciously opened the structure vision to find out.
However, what happened next made his heart jump.
The ability failed?
