Chapter 371: Those Who Have the Courage to Give Up
This world has a relatively complete salt-making process... Even what we usually eat is not coarse salt, but snowflake salt that has been filtered through brine salt water many times, which is already a very powerful product.
This is a very mature technology, and there is no Mana involved in the process, so there is no need for Yila to improve anything.
However, sugar, which is as important as salt, is very scarce in this world... It's not right to say that, this world is not lacking sugar, but something more pure.
sugar, or ... granulated sugar (modern sugar)
But it's hard to do that cheaply.
There is no sugar cane or beet in this world... I can’t even find a better substitute, leaving Ira speechless, but wheat is the same after all, so Ira also has ideas.
...
"Just like that, wrap the steamed glutinous rice, malt, and fermented mixture in cloth...and squeeze out the juice."
As Ira said this, he looked at the little ghoul who squeezed the cloth very easily. He stared at the group of mage apprentices with rounded eyes, then looked at Tops, and said, "Boil the juice, and it will be ready." A thick syrup can be obtained."
Looking at Tops, who seemed to have some ideas, Ira told Vera, "Enter Mana and boil the juice... Be careful."
"..."
Vera, who had been captured, sighed and stirred the cauldron, while injecting mana into the automation wand to keep the flames boiling... In fact, she can use spells by herself, and let the servants of the Arcane to stir.
However, what Ira wants to simulate now is that anyone with mana aptitude, even those who don't know any mana skills, can make sugar.
Because of the existence of Tops, now that there is no [cutting the magnetic field line] and fuel is relatively scarce, this world has the opportunity to... quickly enter the era of industrialization.
Although there are still restrictions on mana adaptability, I heard that the children born recently all have more or less mana adaptability. With the arrival of disaster, it seems that mortals have become stronger.
Races will naturally find their own way out.
"It's done, it's the simplest sugar."
Saying so, Ira inserted her hand into the bubbling semi-fluid syrup, and the burnt and amber sugar slowly flowed back into the pot through the gap between his fingers, and Mana was quickly in his hand. Stirring, turning the sugar into the color that maltose should have while you are cooling it.
I really miss...
Thinking this way, Yila tasted the taste, and under everyone's curious eyes, said: "It's a bit bitter... This means that when it was burned, the stirring was not enough, and the temperature of the flame was too high."
Vera rolled her eyes at this...
"Don't rely on me, you didn't say before that you should shrink the flame as much as possible."
As Vera said so, she stopped what she was doing, rushed up and licked Ira's hand, then smacked her mouth slightly, her eyes lit up: "Wow, it's so sweet, and it's not the same as honey. The same sweetness, so fragrant!"
In fact, Ira knows that it is not as sweet as honey, but the advantage of maltose is not sweetness, but convenience...fast, convenient, large output, easy to store, and can quickly replenish energy.
"I have no intention of blaming you."
As Ira said that, she glanced at the sorcerer apprentices who came from the Three Towers to help the Demon Lord... These people are the students he applied for Tops, and they are all very interested in [Automatic Wand].
Not all mages can't accept [I will be eliminated by the world]. These students have the opposite idea. They are eager to send traditional mages to the grave with their own hands.
In other words, they are eager to open up the future.
"Tops, I leave it to you... On the basis of the original [Corpse Fragrance...Perfume Factory], build a maltose factory, leave enough work area for the workers, limit the maximum output of the staff, and build a building that can automatically The [Conveyor Belt] that transports objects will do.”
As Ira said this, he looked at Tops and those mage apprentices who seemed to be full of motivation, and said: "Let monsters or other races with mana adaptability only need to continuously input mana to run the factory. .”
This is the first subject given to them.
Now the location of the Demon King's Land is no longer where it used to be, and it has moved a long distance away from the ocean as a whole, and it is not going to continue to produce perfume... Now almost no one spends money on luxury goods.
All that needs to be done now is to produce...
Whether it is a severe cold disaster or other disasters, there is always nothing wrong with a large amount of supplies... As long as there are no [rotten disasters], then sufficient supplies are the best way to deal with disasters one.
Moreover, Yila took a big step, directly skipped the [assembly line], and went straight to automation... If it wasn't for this world, the equipment for storing Mana was really bad and expensive, otherwise he could push the world and move towards Mana ( Electrical) era.
"Little devils, cooperate well with Tops, and eat sweets if you are hungry... Vera, shall we go?"
Saying so, Yila left the temporary and crude experimental field without hesitation, and Vera followed behind him... She yawned and asked, "Yawn~ Where are you going next?"
Ira has been really working like crazy lately...how should I put it?
First, I studied [fired bricks] with Mr. Lime, Senata, Youyou, and others, and then I studied [pancreas] with goblins and insects, and then [animal baby incubator] and so on... Then It's [maltose].
"The manpower in the Demon King's collar has been mobilized, and there is no extra work to do."
As Ira said, even the orc girls were arranged by him to dry dried meat, vegetables, and fruits... Anyway, they probably do this very often in the orc country, and it may happen to be their field of expertise.
Now the whole world, under his call, is preparing for the possible [world-ending disaster] in the future, but it should not be more terrifying and outrageous than the mobilization and cohesion of the Demon King's Land.
Maybe the [Pure Empire], which is completely controlled by the Iraqi faction, can barely match, but the bottom of the empire is mortal civilians, while the bottom of the Demon King's Land is little demons and goblins who can kill two or three farmers alone.
So it's still not far off.
"I'm going to another plane next time. You can go to hell with Satan Ye and Xilina, and bring the underground demon king back to the main plane... I mentioned it in the previous meeting."
Yila said so, then he paused, stopped, then turned his head and said to Vera who was already nodding: "But, Vera, are you afraid of death? Are you afraid of disaster?"
If you want to say whether you are afraid or not, then of course you are.
"With Iraq and you here, I won't be afraid."
Vera replied.
"Thank you for your trust. Although... I don't believe in myself, so I made two-handed preparations. You can go to hell together, or you can go to the Tower of Pure White for secret work..."
As Yila said this, he looked at Vera seriously, and said, "The second-hand preparation, only the three principals and my mentor know, don't spread the word, I actually have a last resort..."
"..."
Vera is waiting for the next...
"..."
"..."
"escape."
Ira said so.
