The railway track repair will take some time, but the manpower available for Qin Yiyi's current population explosion is too fast!

Qin Yiyi originally had only a little over a hundred old, weak, sick, and disabled people. Later, about a hundred young and strong people came, and then several dozen more young and strong people came. When the viscount territory rioted, she absorbed another batch, which brought the total to more than three hundred people. With the addition of this time, she absorbed another four hundred people, bringing the total number of people in the territory to about seven hundred or eight hundred. Among them, there are about two hundred old, weak, and disabled people, which means that the number of young and strong people has reached six hundred.

Keep in mind that this is a wasteland world, where human and orc genes are combined, not ordinary human beings.

Nowadays, an average orc can easily take on three to five strong pure-blooded humans. A stronger orc can fight ten at once, and there are exceptionally powerful ones like Sid, who can easily take on a hundred.

Of course, the tentacle monster is a different story; it's not a normal orc.

This means that these six hundred orcs have provided tremendous strength. They work eleven hours a day (on probation). Those with bird genes can fly directly across the territory to pick up goods, while those with other genes can use their racial characteristics to act as repairmen. Even the most complex parts can be repaired in a short time.

The railway tracks were quickly reassembled and ready to run, but the little train had no locomotive, and no locomotive could be found on this endless road where the railway led to who-knows-where.

They built a simple little train, without a roof, with a steam engine underneath. They made three large carriages.

"This can only be used to transport goods, not people!"

"Why can't we transport people? Even when there are no goods, we can put stools inside so people can sit!"

"But this one doesn't have a skylight!"

"It doesn't matter if there's no skylight. The railway we're grafting is in Viscount Alder's territory. It takes us several hours to walk here and even less time to drive here. The railway carriages will only take a shorter time to get here. At most, it will take half an hour for a round trip. Just imagine that speed!"

"But resources are scarce right now. To activate it, you need crystals or other things, so it's not really necessary to use the train as a means of transportation!"

"But that's how history unfolds. Although conditions are tough now, we can use cargo boxes as stools for short distances. Later, we'll build a human-sized train carriage!"

A half-hour journey, or rather, it can't even be called a journey. On a normal day, it's not cold and it's not winter, so sitting in the carriage isn't a big problem. But if winter comes, it won't be good. The railway is covered in snow, and sitting in such a metal box won't keep you warm. You could easily get frostbite within half an hour!

Winter lasts for five or six months, with three of those months experiencing temperatures below zero.

The wagons were all salvaged scrap, and after some repairs, they were turned into freight wagons. However, they resembled freight wagons but had no roof, so the goods were at risk of being damaged in wind and rain. But now, we don't have to worry about that.

The train carriages were deep, used for both cargo and passengers. With winter still a month away, these railcars were still very useful. They had robbed Olde of his supplies and manpower, leaving him all alone. Countless supplies were being transported over, including quilts, grain, and a number of down jackets.

Unfortunately, most of the grain is highly polluted food, and she has to manually convert it to low-pollution varieties, but that seems a bit...

She was still wondering if it was safe to do this. If highly polluted rations were transformed into low-pollution rations by her and then distributed to the slaves, anyone with a discerning eye would have doubts.

Moreover, Olde.

Olde is only superficially obedient to her now. She can't offer anything substantial to suppress Olde in the long run, so she will eventually be suppressed in return.

She had to keep Ald in check, but she couldn't expose the very thing she relied on for survival in this world—the game system.

Ultimately, she decided not to dispose of this batch of highly contaminated food.

According to Olden's practice of keeping someone alive as long as they don't die, this batch of rations could last for more than five months. But with her current approach, it'll probably only last for a month at most.

"The notice will be issued that we will replace low-pollution grain with high-pollution grain. The daily ration of high-pollution grain will be four liang for people aged 15 to 50, and two liang for people over 50 who are working. This means that the ration will be doubled from the original low-pollution grain."

"In addition, low-pollution rations will be issued every three days!"

That is, the first two days are high-pollution rations, and the third day is low-pollution rations.

At this rate, the amount she still has in the warehouse should last for about two months.

She suggested that the high-pollution rice should be shipped out first, and that low-pollution rice should be stored for future food supplies, since longer storage is better for one's health.

Consuming low-pollution rice reduces the pollution index, which can increase the potential of some orcs in children. In addition, consuming unpolluted rice can significantly enhance the control and activation of the orc bloodline potential within the body.

So why is the royal family able to firmly maintain its high position? They enjoy higher education, eat low-pollution or even pollution-free food, and have strong bloodline genes, which allows them to firmly hold onto the throne.
