The winter in the wasteland is like the earth and the sky, and the snow-covered earth and the gloomy sky are connected.

Starts in February and ends in May.

It is now the middle of winter, and the temperature in the air has dropped to about minus 25 degrees, which is extremely cold.

"In the past, the rate of energy provided by burning snow was roughly equal to the expenditure. However, due to the recent increase in population, there has still been a large gap. In order to ensure the heating efficiency in the industrial area, we have temporarily moved residences

The heating temperature in the district has dropped from 18 degrees to 10 degrees, which has slowed down energy consumption. Generally speaking, residents have little opinion."

"Regarding preparations for spring plowing, the Chariot Factory's research and development of agricultural machinery has reached the assembly and testing stage. The machinery that can currently be launched in the first wave is: rotary trencher, rat track plow, shovel thrower, rotary tiller, nail bit

There are a total of twelve types of harrows, cultivators, seeders, automatic spray sprinklers, etc. The list of the second wave of developed machinery is: fixed-point sprinkler irrigation trucks, grain combine harvesters, cotton pickers, compactors, trenching and pipe laying machines."

"In addition, in terms of seeds, players on the farmer route also took advantage of the winter to hand-pick and conduct greenhouse hybrid cultivation on the basis of the original crops, which to a certain extent improved the tolerance of the crops in extremely harsh environments. If there are no special

Unexpectedly, our production in autumn will be at least 15% to 20% higher than last time."

"In terms of scale, the population of Hope Village has now exceeded 30,000, and it is fully equipped with the foundation for expansion and upgrading to the town level. Moreover, we have now expanded two rounds of building clusters, and the space is several times larger than before.

As long as we can find the structural members to build the town's basic organization among the new people, and once these people are trained, I hope the village will be completely new, and it won't be a problem to accommodate another 30,000 people."

"Longteng Village now has a permanent population of more than 5,000 people. Although the number is much smaller than that of Hope Village, due to the business demand there, it is more lively during working days. According to the latest economic statistics

The income index shows that the daily consumption amount in Longteng Village is always between 200,000 and 300,000 iron coins, which is extremely liquid."

"In addition, there are three thousand people in the Fishman Village, mainly engaged in construction, building materials and other industries. By the way. According to the information sent by the fishman village chief, the arrival of spring is also the breeding season for the fishmen. Everything goes well.

By the fall, our number of little murlocs will double again."

"Economic aspects."

Impromptu meetings are often just discussions on a specific link and do not take long.

But the monthly routine report involves the entire territory.

It would take several days just to sort out the tedious data, let alone form a complete analysis report.

After reporting for more than two hours, Qiao Yuansheng stopped and took a sip of water to moisten his throat.

"To sum up our development this month, it can indeed be described as stable and improving. A large amount of new blood has entered and completely revitalized the original internal market, especially in terms of domestic demand. The demand from new people is very large.

Satisfying them will be enough for us to promote industrial development for a while."

"But the jobs here in the industrial zone are almost saturated." Marshal Wang, who had been sitting silently next to him, had time to intervene and said: "If more new people come, the existing factory size in the industrial zone will not be able to accommodate it.

, and blindly expanding production can easily cause material shortage problems."

Without directly answering Marshal Wang's question, Mr. Qiao first turned his attention to Somo behind the desk and asked with his eyes.

"We are all our own people, there is nothing to hide."

Somo tapped his middle finger on the table and spoke concisely.

"A week ago, we opened the black building. Well, it's the one you saw when you came to the territory. Now that we count the time, all the equipment at the research institute should have been repaired."

"Black building?" Marshal Wang was stunned for a moment: "What is that for?"

"chip."

It's ridiculous that a certain country on Earth has frequently issued bans to strictly prohibit the flow of such high-precision equipment into China.

When they arrived in the wasteland, they were directly transported point-to-point into the territory thanks to the magical power of the game.

When the unlockable prompt popped up, Sumo naturally opened it smoothly according to the method of opening it in the future ruins.

It is not a chip production room, but a workshop used to repair various types of equipment.

There are damaged thin film deposition equipment, chemical mechanical polishing equipment, and plasma etching equipment that need to be repaired.

Of course, the highlight of the process is the ‘photolithography machine’.

In the future ruins, the Tianyuan Territory spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources to find enough materials and talents to repair these things and start the first generation of 'chip' production in the middle of the third year of the wasteland.

But now, everything is much simpler.

In addition to the photolithography machine, the territory currently has the ability to repair other equipment, and the materials can also be decomposed from the garbage picked up using the decomposer.

So after entering the building, Sumo immediately used the item survival point to repair the damaged photolithography machine.

It costs a lot, a full nine hundred points.

But in exchange, it was a huge leap in time, saving at least one year.

"Can we make chips?"

Marshal Wang's eyes widened and he stayed in his seat.

This is a term that is not unfamiliar to people on earth.

Especially after being exposed to it in the industrial area during this period, Marshal Wang has a clearer understanding of how huge the influence of chips is.

Traditional electronic components require manual assembly to make circuits, while chips integrate these components onto a chip through microelectronics manufacturing technology.

The emergence of such micro-integrated circuits allows electronic components to be implemented with higher integration and smaller size, thereby improving electrical efficiency and performance.

"Don't be afraid of a backlog of goods. We're done risking our lives. It would be best if we could exchange all our resources for chips and accessories."

Thinking about the scene in the future ruins where human-powered vehicles are popular in the wasteland, there is no need to worry about the lack of sales for this kind of thing.

As long as they can exchange for useful and durable goods, survivors will never be stingy with the resources they have.

"I see."

"Next, I will be responsible for the factory's production expansion plan and ensure that our factory has enough positions to accommodate new employees as quickly as possible."

Marshal Wang agreed obediently, and the lord Sumo no longer needed to be involved in the next plan.

Now that it has passed the stage where the lord needs to do it personally, it is more about holding the general direction.

All right.

It's also partly because Sumo was lazy.

After sending the two of them back to discuss, Sumo comfortably moved the switch under the chair and placed it in a comfortable semi-lying position while sitting in the newly renovated office.

This thing made by handicraft enthusiasts is really good. The use experience in all aspects is much better than that of factory products on the earth. It can perfectly fit the human waist curve and bring the most comfortable experience.

"Master, we have detected that your meeting has ended. Do you need to turn off the active noise reduction function?"

The small square slowly flew down from the ceiling, flickering and swaying in the air.

"Turn it off, I'll almost fall asleep if the noise reduction time is too long."

"OK."

Zero paused, and a little light blue light appeared on the front display screen.

The next second, the office that was quiet just now suddenly became noisy, and the sound of ding-ding-dong-dong came from outside the door.

It looks like a lively vegetable market or a large construction site being renovated.

Among them are the high-frequency grinding sounds of electric saws and the dull rumble of hammers hitting the ground.

The sound of several rollers carrying things came from far to near, making bursts of harsh friction sounds.

Along with the loud and quiet voices, the quiet atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant.

"The current decibel is 97 decibels. Being in a noisy environment for a long time will affect your ability to perceive sounds. If the owner has finished handling official business today, No. 0 recommends that you go out for a walk."

Sumo said with a smile.

"Hey, when did you learn this?"

The little square trembled.

"After learning from No. 0, this is the most basic function of the intelligent assistant."

"Intelligent assistant." Sumo picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip. The wild tea mixed with chopped rice leaves had a unique fragrance.

"Speaking of which, how are you progressing in researching side products that can be installed on personal devices?"

"Well, it has been completed a long time ago, but it has not reached the level of optimization you need."

With the availability of chip manufacturing equipment, the adventurer terminals used by the Adventurer Association in the future ruins can finally be manufactured in large quantities.

Although its performance is not as good as the terminals produced from the modular production line, it does not have those magical functions.

But the advantage is that the cost is low, and as long as there is a network laid out, real-time communication can be achieved.

Of course, hardware alone is definitely not enough; complete software is also needed to adapt the functions.

Put aside the most basic vital sign monitoring function and chat function.

Sumo also plans to adapt the trading function to replace the current cumbersome physical transactions.

As the territory further develops, prices will expand reasonably.

Nowadays, when you make a purchase, you often have to bring a bag of iron coins to pay for it, which is very inconvenient.

Converting it into virtual currency transactions can not only reduce the pressure on the mint, but also facilitate economic activities.

And all these software functions naturally rely on the intelligence of Zero to control and supervise them.

Just create a copy that does not require learning iterations and store it in the user's terminal.
