Chapter 506 Agricultural Development
After everyone else left, the study was quiet again, and in the face of Fiona's playful eyes, Don blushed, picked up his teacup to hide it, and then suddenly thought of something important. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Brian, how are you doing with the lens? Is there any news from Klotto's side? ”
The microscope is related to the development of Seiko, after all, Klotto has the foundation of dwarf technology, and if there is progress on his side, Don will not have to distract himself from the microscope.
Brian scratched his head, took a sip of tea, and said, "There hasn't been much progress on our side, but listening to that little man from Nokia, it seems that Master Kloto is making good progress." ”
Don perked up and immediately asked Brian to call Nokia over, he wanted to know what was going on in this area.
After Nokia arrived, he said crisply: "Master Klotto has restored a prototype according to the records and the principles provided by His Excellency Donn. ”
"Prototype?"
"Yes, a prototype of the Master Engineer's glasses!"
Nokia said excitedly: "Master Klotto has been looking through the documents excavated in the ruins for the past few days, and finally succeeded in building a prototype, although it is a prototype, but it already has a direction, and he has tried to use it, he only has one sentence for this - the opportunity for the rise of dwarf technology has come!" ”
Tang En didn't expect the microscope to have such an important role in dwarf technology, and he asked with great interest, "Are Master Engineer glasses so important?" ”
"Yes! It can be said that the Master Engineer Glasses and the Gnome Saber are two indispensable tools for our Gnome Engineers, and before that, we only had the Gnome Sabre! ”
Nokia showed the dwarf saber hanging on the belt, which comes with a lot of professional engineering tools that can be retracted, very convenient, he said: "The dwarf saber gives us the ability to adjust the equipment anytime and anywhere, but the engineering master glasses are more critical, with it we can find the problem in the first time, and assist us in repairing, adjusting and other work, after my precise calculations, with the engineering master glasses, our efficiency can be increased by at least 198.84%!" ”
I don't know why it's 198.84%, but a nearly twice as much efficiency is a pretty scary number, but Donn cares more about one more thing.
"Listen to what you say, master engineering glasses are not just microscopes, do they have other functions?"
"Yes, the Master Engineer Glasses come with an upgradable module, and there are many replacement modules that can be equipped."
Nokia said happily: "With optical filters, we can observe the stability of the internal energy path and the structure and subtle wear between parts, carry out precise operation, with fault regulators, we can analyze engineering equipment at the first time, find out the problems, with micro sensors, we can help lock the fault, eliminate other interference, with high-energy welders, can help us convenient welding targets...... In short, Master Engineering Glasses are very important! And the most basic optical filter is the indispensable core of the master engineer's glasses. ”
It dawned on Don that this optical filter was a head-mounted microscope.
"Master Krotto has recently completed the basic tests, and when the tests are completely completed, he will begin to order the factory to mass-produce the Master Engineer glasses, and then he will produce a batch of trials for you in human size."
Tang En was overjoyed: "Thank you Master for me." ”
With this convenient multi-functional auxiliary glasses, it is foreseeable that the efficiency of the Magic Engineering Research Institute and the existing technology will be greatly improved, and perhaps the mass production of the Magic Pistol will be completed by relying on this master engineering glasses.
After sending Brian and Nokia away, and coaxing Illya to go back with them, Don thought of another very important thing.
It was already the beginning of the month of recovery, and it was the best time to plant spring, and he hadn't paid attention to Ellington's spring planting since returning from Taris.
"Fiona, how's the spring planting going now?"
Fiona looked at Don with a look of resentment: "Lord Lord, you finally know how to care about this matter. ”
Don touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Haven't you been too busy lately, and Girard can't relax on his side." ”
Although Girard's war with Tares is related to Ellington's future, spring planting is also related to Ellington's livelihood and is an important issue that cannot be ignored.
Fiona opened the book and looked at it, and said, "Now that the magic energy cultivator has been fully debugged and overhauled, it is all in perfect condition and can start work at any time." ”
"Our Datang harvester fleet for the autumn harvest was transformed into a farming team during the spring harvest, and it has set off a few days ago, taking away two hundred magic energy cultivators, as well as a large number of Ellington promotional materials."
"Although independence has been declared, because Girard's energy is focused on Taris at the moment, there is not a tight defense line around Ellington, so the farming convoy can go to the surrounding towns smoothly."
"In addition, due to the expansion of the territory, the Caspami Collar also needs a magic energy cultivator, so it is still working overtime in the near future, at present, we produce 1,000 magic energy cultivators for our own use, the fleet takes away 200 units, and there are 800 units left, but according to the current registered cultivation area, there is still a gap of 300 units, and it is expected that it will take half a month to complete the production work."
"But half a month will affect spring planting, so I suggest that the existing 800 units be split first, and 300 of them will be mobilized to meet the cultivation work in the Casparmi Territory area."
"As for the farming convoy, you can set off east, taking the route of the mountain town of Bein, the stone city of Preston and the water city of Paganis."
"His Excellency Garrian's construction team is now between Bein and Preston, and now Ellington can reach Bein on a flat concrete road, so the efficiency of the farming fleet can be greatly improved, but there is no need to worry about time."
Aurelia was a little puzzled: "Why don't you meet Ellington's needs first?" After all, Ellington is our foundation. ”
Don heard Aurelia say "our roots", and said very happily: "This is actually very understandable, because the production of the magic energy cultivator is in Ellington, and the production here can be directly put into use, while the Casparmi collar is different, and there is a transportation time in the middle, which will affect the efficiency......"
"Exactly."
Fiona nodded and explained: "And since we in Ellington still have the help of elemental creatures, there is no magic cultivator, and the efficiency will not be much lower, and after enough magic cultivators are produced, the backward efficiency will soon be replenished." ”
Aurelia suddenly realized: "I see. ”
"But ......"
Fiona closed her notebook, stared at Don and said, "The cultivator is already in place, what about the new high-yielding seeds you promised us, my lord?" If it weren't for your prestige, they would have already started farming secretly. ”
Don patted his head: "Look at me! Forget about it! Leave the seeds to me, these days have passed, and Grandia should have produced quite a few seeds. ”
Fiona asked, "Can you tell me how much more the new grain can be produced?" ”
Knowing the increase in production, Fiona can estimate the grain production for the autumn harvest in advance, and at the same time carry out the next step of planning, the large increase in population will bring huge food pressure, whether it is to buy or expand the cultivated area, you need to prepare in advance.
"According to the data given by Grandia, the new varieties of grain can probably increase the production capacity by 30%."
"Sancheng!?"
Fiona and Aurelia both took a breath of cold air, what is the concept of increasing production by 30%?
This means that with the same cultivated area, more people can be fed than before!
Ellington is a vast and sparsely populated land, about 1,500 hectares in terms of the original cultivated area, and the output is about 1,500 tons, an increase of nearly 2,000 tons!
However, let's not forget that after Donn took office, he carried out drastic agricultural reforms!
The issuance of the pioneer policy, the birth of new agricultural tools and magic agricultural machinery, has injected a lot of vitality into Ellington's agriculture, with the support of Donn, the farmers of Ellington have been pioneering almost at all costs for most of the year, so this year's Arable Area in Ellington has reached a terrible increase!
More than 14,000 hectares!
That's right! Nearly a tenfold increase!
If it weren't for the massive influx of people into Ellington to work in the factories, the corresponding water conservancy projects would not have kept up, and this number would have increased even more!
The area under cultivation registered in Casparmi was about 1,200 hectares, and after the permafrost had melted, Fiona sent an order to allow Casparmi to develop the land as quickly as possible, but because of the time constraints, the increase was very limited, and it had only reached more than 2,800 hectares.
A thousand magic cultivators can definitely meet the cultivation needs of Casparmi's collar, even if it is a temporary expansion to increase the cultivation area, there is a slight surplus.
That is to say, this year's spring planting, the total amount of land that needs to be cultivated in Tang'en's territory adds up to more than 17,000 hectares, deducting the weather, harvest losses, etc., the estimated production capacity is about 17,000 tons, and now the grain production has increased by 30%, which is 22,000 tons!
That's a terrible boost!
Increasing food production means more people have enough to eat, more people have the strength to do other things, and more human resources are available......
The benefits are indescribable!
This is only a 30% increase, if Grantia solves the problem of hybrid genetics and doubles the yield......
It's not impossible, because Grand Druid Yuan's hybrid rice has tripled the yield of 300 kilograms of rice per mu, and it is entirely possible for Prandal's wheat to do so.
Tang En sighed with emotion, the picture was too beautiful for him to imagine.
Tang En came back to his senses and was suddenly stunned: "You just said...... Garion has already built a road? (To be continued.) )
