Wasteland Development Diary

#181 - Made a small contribution to mankind

Zhou Yi and Xiaofu shared this Celestial experience.

“A three-color gemstone structure, flowing basic units, spherical suspension… I have never seen such a race before.”

The Streamtracer said, “But judging from their living space, they should be a highly independent advanced life form.”

“Generally speaking, when a certain life form develops to a certain extent, it either becomes aggregated or scattered.”

“The first direction is that individuals become highly convergent, the degree of integration and union increases, and the groups are constantly integrated and deeply united, eventually forming a civilization system with high-speed information flow. They rely on the increase in the number of individuals to continuously expand, moving from quantitative change to qualitative change.”

“The second direction is the high degree of individual freedom and scattering. Different individuals of the same type of life maintain distance, and may even not need to communicate at all.”

“These two directions have their own advantages and disadvantages, and in reality, they are not mutually exclusive, but rather leaning towards one direction. Like us Streamtracers, we are closer to scattering, while the humans in this world tend towards aggregation.”

“The Celestials should be similar to the Streamtracers.”

“Otherwise, being in the same space, with their consciousness and information processing capabilities, they can interact with their own kind at any time. It's more like they are used to keeping their distance from each other and living alone.”

“But entering this world, comparatively speaking, their own kind is more reliable, so they will exchange information and have a certain degree of cooperation.”

This was consistent with Zhou Yi's feelings.

The Celestials in the gemstone world form seemed to have no interaction at all, at least in their bodies, each was a private space.

Only when they entered the wasteland world would they have dialogue and engage in group collaboration like attacking Xiaofu.

“Oh? Since the Celestial's body is usable…”

Xiaofu made a suggestion: “Should we get its body?”

Zhou Yi was stunned: “Do you have a way?”

“The Streamtracer's Currentflow technology system is for collecting kindling, including not only the accumulation of consciousness information, but also high-quality hostless bodies.”

The Streamtracer said excitedly: “The Celestial looks like a high-quality advanced life body.”

“How can this be done?”

Zhou Yi expressed doubt: “The Celestial's main body is in a reachable place, and we can still use the Currentlight Instrument, but the place where it is located doesn't seem to be this world. I can only enter the Celestial's body through the gemstone channel.”

“It can be done as long as we create a [Fire Transmitter].”

Xiaofu said, “Simply put, the function of this Currentflow device is to transform our own memory core. When entering the target body, we ignite the Fire Transmitter and completely connect with it. After the fire transmission is completed, we can transmit consciousness at any time and use that body.”

“It's just that the Fire Transmitter consumes a lot to manufacture, and it's a one-time consumable. It will be completely consumed after the fire transmission is completed.”

“I used this method to start the Poseidon号 before.”

There was actually such a thing.

Zhou Yi immediately asked: “How many Light Seeds does it consume?”

“Manufacturing a Fire Transmitter requires 30,000 Light Seeds converted.”

He thought to himself.

If it could really be done, it would be worth it.

“How long will it take to build?”

“It's quite fast, using consciousness keys to build is very efficient.”

“Then build one now.”

“Now? Okay.”

……

Zhou Yi immersed himself in his memory core.

On the outer orbit, the Streamtracer in the shape of a shadow said: “Follow my steps below.”

“First, we need to dismantle one white and two black consciousness keys. You need to agree before I can dismantle them. This may make you feel slightly dizzy, but it's normal.”

Xiaofu pulled up two strip-shaped stone-like consciousness keys from under his feet, built them into a three-dimensional coordinate system, and connected them to the outer orbit.

“Da Zhou, you also make one over there, but it must correspond to the opposite of mine, one black and two white consciousness keys, connected to the edge of the inner orbit, and connected to mine with the same consciousness key.”

Zhou Yi did as he was told and completed this set of procedures.

The consciousness keys connecting the two coordinate systems all changed from horizontal to vertical, moving up and down in this coordinate system, forming a three-dimensional function graph with constantly changing peaks and valleys.

“This is the Fire Direction Axis, the consciousness information output constructed by the consciousness keys. It is the foundation of the Fire Transmitter. The peak represents your large amount of consciousness information, which means you are thinking and calculating. The trough is when you are in the observation stage and have not yet processed and transformed the external information you have obtained.”

“What we need now is to manufacture a large number of these things and assemble 223 Fire Direction Axes to create a Fire Transmitter.”

Under Xiaofu's guidance, Zhou Yi also became busy.

The entire workload was huge. Later, every time he moved a consciousness key, it became very difficult, and even the Streamtracer on the opposite side had to rest frequently, and his voice was full of fatigue.

“Almost, almost, for the advanced life body, let's work harder.”

Xiaofu had a strong sense of conviction in collecting things.

The two of them were so busy that they had nothing to say to each other. They used every bit of time to rest and avoid overloading their consciousness.

I don't know how long they were busy, but a total of 223 Fire Direction Axes were finally built.

“Phew, phew, now there is only the last step left.”

“Ignition.”

Xiaofu paused and said, “Invest 30,000 Light Seeds here to open it.”

“It won't consume it normally, only fire transmission will consume this part of the energy. They will circulate here, and there is almost no loss.”

Zhou Yi withdrew to the outside world and held the Light Nano Box in his hand.

A large number of Light Seeds were converted into energy.

Black and white consciousness began to rise and fall rapidly, like huge waves composed of pillars. They glowed every time they rose, and extinguished after they fell.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but think of the movable type printing performance at the 2008 Olympic Games.

A large number of light spots alternately rose and fell, weaving out a rising bonfire.

“This is the [Fire Transmitter].”

The Streamtracer was relieved: “With this, next time you project your consciousness there, you can directly enter the memory core of that body.”

“Then you can transmit fire.”

“Don't dislike it for being troublesome. This is a good method that has been determined by Streamtracers through practice. It is stable and reassuring, but it requires a little patience when building it.”

Zhou Yi nodded: “Understood, thank you.”

Xiaofu was stunned: “This is the first time you have been so polite to me.”

“Because you really helped a lot.”

“I am you, helping you is helping me.”

The Streamtracer said: “But I thought your advanced life race was the type with a strong desire to rule and conquer. It doesn't seem to be.”

“What kind of race are you guys anyway? What are your hobbies? What do you hate? Do you have any ultimate goals, or enemies and principles…”

Zhou Yi directly closed Unit 2.

Xiaofu is okay in other aspects, but he is sometimes particularly talkative.

The problem is.

You ask me, who do I ask?

Zhou Yi also basically knows nothing about the White Lion, just use it as an heirloom.

……

The following days were calm.

The melons in the fields were successively picked, becoming summer benefits for the employees, or sent to Sandport City for sale or transfer.

In this summer with continuously rising temperatures, the people of Emerald City were cooling off in the buildings or under the dam, eating melons and chatting, and life was more comfortable than ever before.

The agricultural machinery brothers also returned safely.

Iron Horse gave Zhou Yi a detailed report.

“Chairman, Copper Bull and I first went to Agricultural Affairs City to investigate the wheat seeds on the market there.”

“We brought samples of soil, water, and other things from here, and had them tested and matched by agricultural machinery experts there to select the seeds that are most suitable for our area. Then we also need to do some specific breeding learning, because new seeds are constantly being born, and our agricultural machinery must constantly update our knowledge and technology.”

“Then I learned in Agricultural Affairs City that our [Emerald Soup] was a great success, and I saw key reports in the news in Agricultural Affairs City! Agricultural Affairs City has also become one of the agency cities for Emerald Soup! The locals have a very high evaluation of our food, which is great!”

Zhou Yi thought to himself that it was because Coral Port had put in a lot of effort.

In order to be rated as an A-level city, this wealthy port spared no effort in vigorously promoting and publicizing Emerald Soup.

Iron Horse also said: “We have already transported all the wheat seeds back. This is a batch of seeds that are very suitable for our environment. After the summer idle season, we can plant wheat on the 2,000 acres of land where peanuts and sweet potatoes were previously planted, and plant beans on the 500 acres of melon fields. This crop rotation can balance soil nutrients and be more beneficial to increasing income.”

Zhou Yi told it about the Honor War.

Iron Horse asked: “Then are we still planting wheat?”

“Of course we are planting. I'm just telling you about the current general environment, don't worry about anything else.”

“I'm not worried, anyway, I don't understand other fields. We'll just plant the land!”

……

Zhou Yi also contacted Gold Wing of Coral Port through Red Falcon, asking about the production and sales progress of Emerald Soup.

“Mr. Zhou, please rest assured that everything is going smoothly at present.”

“We have made a slight improvement through the food factory and turned Emerald Soup into a more portable form.”

A dynamic picture popped up on the tablet screen.

The new Emerald Soup looks like a piece of wood or a soda cracker.

“The new Emerald Soup has been dehydrated and pressed to become very compact. It will gradually expand when immersed in water. One piece can meet the basic food calorie needs for one person per meal, and it tastes better when cooked in hot water.”

Gold Wing said: “After determining this form, we determined the first batch of 40 city agents, and the cost has also been reduced. The cost price of one piece of Emerald Soup is within 10 Mushrooms, and the market price is set at 15 to 20 Mushrooms, depending on transportation costs.”

Zhou Yi gasped when he heard this.

This price is outrageous.

As poor as Mao Valley Town, the local residents used to eat 70 Mushrooms a day, and 20-30 Mushrooms per meal. Coral Port directly hit the bottom price as soon as it came up, turning Emerald Soup into an affordable instant noodle that people in poor and remote areas can afford, and anyone can buy it and take it home to fill their stomachs.

With their powerful long-distance freight system, they can quickly open up markets in various places for Emerald Soup and send it to thousands of households.

It can only be said that Coral Port wants to progress too much.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask: “Are you really not losing money this way?”

“There will be no losses, otherwise it will not pass the final review of the program department.”

Gold Wing said: “The low-price strategy also has rewards, although the profit itself is very low.”

“Currently, our sales volume in the first month is 400 million pieces, and the total profit is 402 Light Seeds. Your company's share is 201 Light Seeds. However, as the scale continues to expand and the channels and audiences increase, this number will definitely increase.”

“As a daily consumable, the two most important points for food are price and taste. Emerald Soup has huge advantages in both of these points. There are no competing products in the same price range.”

“In addition, the cost of imitation will be higher than ours. This is also the advantage of Coral Port's centralized factory model.”

“In terms of Explosion Mushrooms, we have bought two large sedimentary belts specifically for breeding Sandport Explosion Mushrooms. As long as we cut the hyphae before they have developed to a virulent level, they can be used as safe food.”

“Currently, many food experts are agreeing to increase our rating. As long as we continue to develop, Emerald Soup will definitely become a phenomenal food! It is of great significance to Coral Port!”

Zhou Yi had no doubt about this.

The cost of industrial production is much lower than that of small workshops, and the output is not on the same level at all.

After all, they are rich and powerful, and directly engaged in two sedimentary belts to directly grow mushrooms.

The food industry in the wasteland era is indeed not very profitable. Even with Coral Port as a strategic project for promotion and distribution, the profits exchanged for a large number of shipments are very limited.

It is not difficult to understand why no one focuses on investing and expanding in this industry.

In essence, it is still because humans in the wasteland era are too poor to afford expensive food, and most people have not yet solved the basic problem of filling their stomachs.

This time, Coral Port launched a heavy attack with Emerald Soup, directly dominating the low-end daily food market.

Zhou Yi is still very optimistic about this.

The times will always develop, and the domain lords will promote human growth to obtain more labor. The number of people will always increase slowly. The new generation can drink nutritious and delicious Emerald Soup, which is much better than always gnawing on mushrooms.

In this wasteland era, the company has also made a small contribution to mankind.
