Chapter 239 Power Workshop
On the other side of the mine passage, you only need to pass through a 4-kilometer factory tunnel to reach the Houshan pasture.

"If it is rezoned, it is better to fully open up the pastures and farmland, but the amount of work is too large."

People now hope that there is no shortage in the city for the time being, what is lacking is advanced tools and equipment, but Lin Guiyao is not in a hurry,
In this drought, he not only gained a large number of people, but also exchanged food and water for a lot of scarce materials and technologies in the surrounding territories.

Although it is not as good as the technologies mastered by the metropolis, after digesting it, it is no problem for Hope City to develop from the farming and handicraft industry stage to the basic industry stage.

"Speaking of industry, it seems that I haven't visited the workshop area for a long time..."

Lin Guiyao has recently broken his heart because of the newly joined citizens, especially the large number of key personnel who need him to "brainwash" himself. It is rare to have some free time today, so he simply inspects the development of his territory.

After going around the Houshan Ranch for a while, he handed over the matter of expanding the breeding of black gold ants to Tie Wuya, and inspected the animals by the way, which is also one of his daily activities.

Ever since the [Breeding] function was turned on, Lin Guiyao embarked on this breeding road of no return after learning from the last experiment that this function could actually make animals with a three-star liking for him become pregnant on the spot.

As long as the animals that pass through his hands, whether it is the humming pink pig or the white bison with an extremely long breeding cycle, all of them can complete the process of conception and childbirth within two weeks.

Especially for white bison, it would take at least two years to complete this process under normal circumstances, but now in two weeks, the entire Hope City no longer has to worry about the lack of meat and milk.

Naturally, there are also disadvantages. The white bison conceived by this method is very fragile and has to be stared at almost 24 hours a day. It has to be fed and appeased. die young.

Fortunately, workers in this process can also do it, otherwise Lin Guiyao would be exhausted.

However, when experimenting with the new features of the system, Lin Guiyao also did an interesting thing:
He also fired [breeding] at the iron-headed gorilla, and it really worked!

It's just that the labor period is a bit long, and I'm still pregnant, so I don't know when I will give birth.

This scene really shocked other people who didn't know the situation.

Fortunately for the pig and the cow, there is only one iron-headed gorilla in the entire City of Hope. How did it get pregnant?

Everyone didn't dare to think about it, but the way they looked at Lin Guiyao was a little strange...

Fortunately, those two armored beasts were both male, otherwise, if Lin Guiyao got pregnant with these two big guys, the name of Ritian would probably spread throughout Hope City.

As for Gabeng, it is also male.

After bidding farewell to Tie Wuya, Lin Guiyao didn't disturb the past years, but went directly down to Zhongcheng to see the changes in the workshop.

Xi Nian, Zhao Ziyue, Shi Hu and the others returned to Hope City two weeks ago. In fact, they did not reach the Chiyun Mountains. Two months was not enough time for them to reach there, let alone search for the rebels.

The reason they came back early was that they didn't need to go any further. The main force of the rebel army had been wiped out by the metropolis, leaving only a small group of troops to flee.

But in this drought, the insurgents who lacked supplies could not last long, and most of them died on the way to escape. It just so happened that Zhao Ziyue and the others rescued an old acquaintance:
Zhuo Yi.

Zhuo Yi was very straightforward. After he was rescued, he didn't ask Zhao Ziyue to go with him to gather the routs. Instead, he patted his chest and promised that if Hope City needed it, he would bring ten people from the territory to help.

This not only shows his attitude of gratitude, but more importantly, he wants to express such a meaning:
The rebel army was defeated, but not dead.

A small cadre of them can pull out the troops of ten territories, and the capital for cooperation is still there!
However, Gui Xingchao's move was useless until the drought ended.

Except for City of Hope and the Metropolis, other places simply cannot get enough water and food, and the limited supply of Metropolis is even more difficult to buy with money. When those territories need to rely on City of Hope, they naturally dare not make mistakes , not to mention that the situation at that time was that the hearts of the people were not in harmony, and no one could beat it alone.

But now that the crisis has passed, they will definitely not be reconciled to their capital being plundered by City of Hope after the aftertaste. They will wait for the day when their vitality recovers and find an excuse to unite and put pressure on City of Hope.

It's just that whether they succeed at that time depends on whether they can catch up with the pace of City of Hope.

Lin Guiyao sneered: "I don't have much hope!"

In front of him is the workshop area in Midtown, no, it should be called an industrial area now.

Rows of five-meter-high workshops have been built to replace the original bakery.

Three or five balls of black smoke were emitting from the towering chimneys. Workers in blue work uniforms were talking and laughing as they entered and exited each factory building, shouting to the strong white bison to send in carts full of raw materials one by one. Then pull out piles of finished parts and send them to the corresponding places.

Humming machinery roared continuously from the red brick factory building, and the temperature in the air was one or two degrees higher than other places.

Lin Guiyao nodded to the workers who bowed to him, walked into a house marked Power Workshop.

The factory building is built very high, and there are five huge boilers inside. Workers are constantly throwing carts of black lumps into the bottom of the furnace.

The naked eye can see that the flames in the furnace are very hot. Whenever the material feeding is completed, a worker will hold a long digging hook and turn it a few times in the furnace material, and then quickly close the heavy furnace door.

A man with slightly bald hair was patrolling, and suddenly saw Lin Guiyao, rushed up a few steps, and bowed.

"My lord, the younger one is the director of the power workshop, my surname is Hua, what orders does my lord have here?"

"I'm here to take a look around. Director Hua, you came just in time. How about introducing this power workshop to me?" Lin Guiyao waved his hand.

"It's an honor!" Director Hua smiled, pointing to the five boilers that were as big as standing containers.

"The core of the power workshop is the five boilers. We heat the boiler, burn water into steam, pressurize it and send it to the flywheel generator, use the water vapor to drive the piston, and the piston drives the flywheel through the connecting rod. The flywheel then converts the kinetic potential energy into electrical energy, so we have electricity!"

"Electricity?"

Lin Guiyao asked in surprise, didn't Gobling say that the generator hadn't been fixed yet?
Regarding his doubts, Director Hua also looked helpless.

"Minister Ge said that the efficiency of this kind of generator is too low, and the energy conversion loss is too large, so it is only used to make up the number, so only five boilers are made to supply this flywheel generator, and the electricity generated is only supplied to the nearby one. The factory building has not been promoted."

It turned out that Gobling did not admit that this thing was a generator!
