Chapter 325 The natural disaster finally ended



Suddenly, there was a vast stretch of mountains towering into the clouds on that mountain range, and at the top, there was a thick layer of ice and snow.

Shen Shuli's eyes lit up instantly.

She didn't expect that the space could move and change the state of the mountains on its own, and now there are snow-capped mountains.

really.

The higher the spatial level, the more it will conform to reality.

Shen Shuli asked Xie Chengyuan to fly the helicopter slowly.

Along the way, Shen Shuli collected all the snow above ten meters from the ground into the space.

The snow on the towering mountains in the space is getting more and more, and thicker and thicker.

Perhaps it is with the appearance of snow-capped mountains.

The temperature in the space is one or two degrees lower than before.

...

...

It is still the best temperature for human and animal life.

Shen Shuli flew around and collected almost all the snow in the uninhabited area of ​​Canglan Country.

Then continue to advance towards Pagan and India.

Along the way, not only did they collect the snow from the two countries, but they also plundered all kinds of resources hidden in the earth.

Especially the Kingdom of Pagan.

The jade veins here are even richer than those in the Jade City of Dayong Kingdom, and the materials are very different.

The jade mine in Shen Shuli's space had just been almost consumed.

She did not hesitate to move almost all the jade mines in the entire Bagan Kingdom into the space and stored them.

These jade mines are enough for Shen Shuli to upgrade the space to level 50.

There are only three days left before the blizzard disaster.

Shen Shuli plans to return to Dayong.

She wanted to clear all the snow in Dayong.

Dayong is Shen Shuli's root no matter what, so she has to collect the snow more cleanly.

Only one meter of snow was left on the ground.

Even if there is another three or two days of heavy snow.

The snow depth will not accumulate too much.

Once the weather clears and the snow melts, there will be no large-scale floods, which will cause more suffering to the people.

Then return to the island.

All the snow on the island was cleared away, leaving only half a meter of snow.

She squeezes the relatively clean snow into snow blocks in the space and stores them in the warehouse.

The snow is relatively clean, allowing island residents to store food in cellars during the summer.

Moreover, the ice cubes that have entered the space warehouse have been disinfected and sterilized in the space, and can also be used to make various iced drinks.

During this month, in addition to collecting snow, Shen Shuli also found several resources in those two countries that had not been collected in the space.

The space has reached level 26.

This month.

All five groups have made good progress.

Xiao Yuxuan and Mu Wanjun have already developed a pencil.

As for other hard pens such as carbon pens, this type of pen requires technology with more advanced materials, which is not possible with the current technology on the island.

But it’s great that we can develop a pencil.

Graphite is needed for pencil refills, and these materials need to be provided by the group that makes the ink sticks.

It wasn't too difficult for the two of them.

The material used to make the pencil holder is bamboo.

They used soft bamboo of similar thickness, hollowed out the inside with spiral wire, and stuffed the pen core with glue.

The craftsmanship is rougher than modern ones.

But for them, it is the best they can do at the moment.

Pencils needed to be sharpened, so Xiao Yuxuan asked the blacksmith at the steel factory to help make a batch of small daggers that could cut through iron like mud. These small daggers had to be managed by someone in a unified manner.

We had pencils, but we couldn't yet make erasers, so we couldn't erase or make corrections.

Moreover, the handwriting does not last as long as that of calligraphy.

These pens have yet to become mainstream.

The main problem is that there are many shortcomings.

You should also not let children who have just started school practice with a brush while using a pencil.

This will only make them spend more time, and as a result, neither of them will be able to adapt, and will increase their resistance to learning.

Therefore, the brush is still the main tool.

As for the brush.

Their group has produced a lot in the past two months.

But the number is far from enough.

More people need to be added.

Su Yunhai dispatched another two thousand people to Xiao Yuxuan to help with the production.

The ink stick that Xiao Yan was in charge of was the slowest progressing of the five projects.

In ancient times, it took at least two to three years to make ink sticks, mainly because the time for drying the ink sticks in the shade could not be shortened.

He has already made a batch of ink sticks, but they need time to dry in the shade.

However, he has developed a batch of inks that are relatively simple to make and use.

Although the color and texture of the ink are not as good as those of ink sticks, it is definitely enough for beginners.

Moreover, the ink is simple and convenient to make and does not require frequent grinding, making it more friendly to beginners.

As for the ink sticks produced, they can be given to people with higher needs.

When the world is stable in the future, they can all be used for trade.

So we also need to speed up the production.

There are many kinds of ink sticks.

There are toners made from red pine wood, and there are also toners made from various oils, and each has its own target audience.

Xiao Yan built many workshops and made a lot of ink sticks made of various materials.

Wait a year later.

Then we can ship out in large quantities one after another.

The brothers Su Yunshan and Su Yunlin were responsible for the production of papermaking.

They have semi-automated machines and have expanded to fifteen operating rooms.

The paper stock is already high.

The inkstones made by my grandfather Su Baogen and grandmother Wang Cuilan became more and more mature with their skills and experience.

The yield rate of their inkstones is getting higher and higher, but it takes a long time to fire the inkstone each time, and the number of inkstones is far from enough.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan developed ink. The ink was stored in ceramic bottles or porcelain bottles, and the brush could be dipped directly into the ink in the bottle, so the demand for inkstones was not very high.

At least enough for teachers.

There is also movable type printing, which was in charge of by Su Yunhai and Shen Yuehua.

Because there are few masters who can carve characters.

They only made twenty sets of movable type.

Eight sets of Song fonts in different sizes, eight sets of Kai fonts, as well as several sets of pinyin letters, Arabic numerals, etc. were also carved.

The fonts were provided by Su Baogen and Wang Cuilan, and are both modern simplified fonts.

I guess there are many words in it that even the educated people of this era cannot recognize.

It is also necessary to cultivate literacy among scholars again.

Leisure time.

They also have to review and study modern versions of textbooks together and compile a new set of textbooks.

It can be said that everyone is so busy that they are like spinning tops and can't stop at all.

However, Shen Shuli left a lot of spiritual spring water for her parents before leaving.

It can help everyone and the working people recover their physical and mental strength, otherwise even young people would not be able to hold on.

Blizzard disaster.

It stopped on time at midnight on the night Shen Shuli returned to the island.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The natural disaster is finally over.

Early the next morning.

The air temperature has obviously warmed up a lot.

Shen Shuli took out a thermometer and measured it. The temperature had returned to minus thirty degrees.

It was more than a little warmer than the previous temperature of minus 40 degrees Celsius.

Su Yunhai organized all the people to stop all work and dispatched everyone to clear all the snow within the activity range of all people in the three bases.

This day.

Su Yunhai directly overturned the previous calendar because the previous calendar had been completely broken by natural disasters and could no longer be used.

And today is a new beginning.

He designated this day as January 1st of the Gregorian calendar, New Year's Day.

The first day of the first lunar month is designated as the Spring Festival.

The day before the Spring Festival is designated as New Year's Eve.

Then a new calendar was introduced and people were asked to follow it.

The algorithm for the new calendar was provided by Shen Shuli.

The new era name was named Huaxia.

It also introduced a seven-day week and a four-week month.

There are also new time concepts of day of the week and week.

You can say that.

This is a major reform for the people of the entire island.

A year and a half has passed since I fled the famine.

They have never had a lively New Year's Eve.

Su Yunhai notified all the people.

On the Spring Festival, the island celebrates a lively New Year, so this is the time to start preparing.

Su Yunhai and Su Yunlin, who were in charge of papermaking, had people make a batch of thickened single-sided and double-sided red paper overnight so that people could use them to cut window flowers and paste couplets.

Use red to add a touch of color to this devastated world.

Shen Shuli is still thinking about holding a lantern festival.

This festival was planned by Shen Shuli a long time ago.

It is also a festival that all men and women on the island have been looking forward to for a long time.

This is their festival to get rid of singleness, so naturally they attach great importance to it.

After three days of clearing the snow, we finally cleared all the snow that was in the way.

When Shen Shuli was clearing the snow in front of her house, she built a huge dog that looked particularly lifelike.

This caused the children on the street to go home and ask their parents to make snowmen for them as well.

Not long.

Almost every household has one or two snowmen of various kinds in front of their doors.

The children's laughter and joy filled the entire residential area.

Su Yunhai directly notified all factories to take a holiday, and all work including the preparation of pens, ink, paper and inkstones was also stopped.

Even the people at the shipyard, salt factory and military camp were notified.

At the same time, ask someone to make the new calendar into a beautiful wall calendar.

The patterns on the calendars are all ready-made patterns that Shen Shuli found from the books in the space, and the style is all traditional Chinese painting.

All paintings are selected according to the month as suitable illustrations.

Then the calendar was copied using a copier in the space, but it was not made of paper.

The current technology of paper mills is not capable of producing the extra-thick paper used for calendars.

Shen Shuli chose durable fine cotton cloth.

After use, these calendars can be reused and the patterns on them can be used to make clothes, pillows and other items.

Nothing will be wasted.

Shen Shuli only copied 10,000 copies.

There was really a limited amount of materials, and there wasn't much ink in the copy machine in her space, so she couldn't use it all on this, otherwise she would definitely give a copy to each family.

If all families had access to a calendar, they would be able to adapt to the new calendar quickly.

But it is not possible yet.

Because many people don’t even know the numbers 123, so even if they are distributed to them, they won’t be able to recognize them, and it would be a waste to just leave them there.

These 10,000 books will be equally distributed among three bases and one military camp, and used as rewards to those outstanding, hardworking and capable workers.

Chen Shuli invited a group of young people to help decorate the base with various beautiful and exquisite lanterns, colorful ribbons, various artificial flowers made of scraps of cloth and other decorations that had been prepared in the past few months.

They also had a large detachable stage built in the central square of the residential area.

This stage is used by people who can sing opera to perform during the Lantern Festival.

It not only livens up the atmosphere, but also allows many people who like watching plays to watch and relax.

People knew that the Lantern Festival would be held in ten days.

All the men and women who were excited offered to help.

Shen Shuli naturally accepted everyone who came.

In just three days.

The white base becomes colorful, and the festive atmosphere is everywhere.

Not only did they decorate the residential area of ​​the base to make it lively, they also simply decorated all the factories in the distance.

Not only Base No. 1 holds the Lantern Festival, but Base No. 2, Base No. 3 and the military camp also hold Lantern Festivals.

Each place takes turns to be the host for one day.

That is to say.

The Lantern Festival will last for four days.

The official roads between the four bases have already been built.

There are wide official roads for travel between them, and Shen Shuli also took out all the carriages and horses in the base.

The first day of the Lantern Festival is hosted by Base No. 1, and people from other places can take the shuttle carriage to participate in the feast.

It starts after lunch and lasts until eight in the evening.

The next day it was the turn of Base No. 2 to host the event.

People from the other three places can participate.

In other words, if singles don’t find someone they like on the first day, they will have at least four days to choose.

If you don’t find a suitable partner within four days, you will have to continue to be a single dog.

After the Lantern Festival.

There is still one month left until the Chinese New Year.

If you find someone you like, you can take advantage of this time to get married.

We were a couple during the Chinese New Year.

You have to know that there are 1.2 million people on the island now, and the total number of women is only about 200,000.

This also includes all married people under the age of thirteen and those over thirty.

If this part is removed, it is estimated that there will only be 100,000 women of marriageable age left.

On the entire island, the number of single soldiers alone exceeded 300,000.

This does not include the 100,000 soldiers snatched from that dog emperor Xiao Yuqi.

Besides.

Except for the soldiers.

There are still many ordinary people on the island.

Among them, there are definitely quite a few singles, widows, divorced people, and old bachelors.

With this ratio, it is estimated that several men will force their heads to fight for a girl.

Shen Shuli felt her scalp tingling when she thought of that scene.

But there is no way.

In order to promote the development of islands, this problem must be solved.

The proportion of women is still too small!

But Shen Shuli had no other choice.

She couldn't bring all the women in Dayong to the island!

You know, there is a shortage of women in the whole world nowadays.

Because women are the ones who are consumed the fastest in the various natural disasters in the past two or three years!

In this environment, they would have been labeled as money-losing goods, cheap girls, worthless and other bad names.

All families like boys.

Many baby girls are killed by their families in various ways after they are born.

Even if they were kept, girls would not be fed too much or carefully at home.

Even a pregnant woman will probably not be treated well by her in-laws until the baby is born and the gender of the child cannot be determined.

I guess I have to go to the fields to work three days after giving birth.

When faced with natural disasters, women who have been hungry all year round and are malnourished are definitely the first to be eliminated.

There are even horrific and inhumane situations such as cannibalism.

Women must have been the first victims.

The natural and man-made disasters that women have to face are definitely ten times more than men!

The number of women who survived was naturally very small.

Other places also need women for harmony and reproduction, and Chen Shuli cannot bring women from all places to the island.

In the few days after the snowstorm ended.

The temperature has been slowly warming up.

Finally it remained at around minus twelve or thirteen degrees Celsius.

The snow on the mountains has melted a lot, but the frozen rivers are still covered with thick ice.

Chen Shuli specially ordered people to clear all the snow from the two large rivers next to the residential area.

The ice on the river is three meters thick, which can be used to add an ice-skating entertainment activity.

It allows couples who are attracted to each other to date on the ice to enhance their affection.

The Lantern Festival is getting closer.

Su Dingan seemed to be getting more and more impatient.

Shen Yuehua had already noticed something wrong with her son.

She had asked her third son a few months ago if he had someone he liked.

But he kept hesitating and making excuses and refused to say anything.

But ever since the Lantern Festival preparations began, it became clear that something was wrong with this little guy.

Seems a lot more anxious.

As someone who has experienced this, Shen Yuehua of course knew that her son was worried that the person he loved would be snatched away by someone else.

The island is now full of competitors.

The secret competition had already begun when preparing for the Lantern Festival.

Each of the single men who are excited already has a woman they like in secret.

Using the excuse of preparing for the Lantern Festival, he frequently appeared in front of the woman he liked to win her favor.

Su Dingan can see every day that the person he likes is always followed by dozens of competitors.

"Third brother, why are you daydreaming? Tell mother quickly, who is the girl you like? The Lantern Festival is coming soon, are you really not afraid that the girl you like will be snatched away by someone else?"

"If you tell me, I can help you with some advice and prepare things for your wedding in advance. The New Year is coming soon. Don't you want to marry a new bride before the New Year?"

"Or is it that the girl you like has flaws in character or other aspects, and you don't dare to let us know?"

Shen Yuehua was really anxious.

Although many families have long wanted to marry their daughters to the Su family.

But she still wants her child to have freedom in marriage and let him choose someone he loves to live with.

But the third brother is so stubborn that he has kept the secret till now.

But she was busy on weekdays and had no time to investigate which girl her son liked.

Shen Yuehua was really worried that the girl her son liked would be snatched away by someone else.

You should know that there have been many men secretly showing their affection to the girls they like.

If two people are attracted to each other, they can use the Lantern Festival as an opportunity to express their feelings.

By then, others won’t be able to intervene even if they want to.

Su Dingan finally mustered up the courage, and said to Shen Yuehua with a blushing face: "Mom, um, the person I like is Qi Yaya..."

"Although she is also from Dayong, she is not Han after all, and her family is still in business. I have always been worried that my family would not agree, so I have never dared to speak up..."

Qi Yaya is a good friend that Shen Shuli made in Yucheng. Shen Shuli often invites her to her home for dinner in her free time.

I also often visit Qiyaya's home.

Shen Yuehua still likes Qiyaya very much.

She is pure and kind-hearted, and is well protected by her family, so she has no evil intentions.

If Qiyaya also likes her son, then Shen Yuehua will definitely let her son marry her in a grand manner.

"Son, you have good vision, but I have to ask you, what is Qiyaya's attitude towards you? Don't be obsessed with her here, okay?" Shen Yuehua suddenly thought of this question and looked at Su Dingan anxiously.

The truth is that I never see my son and Qiyaya having much contact on weekdays.

But Shen Yuehua didn't know.

Su Dingan usually looks for opportunities to play with Qiyaya outside.

Almost never reveal any clues in front of family members.

There are so many little thoughts.

When Su Dingan thought of Qiyaya, a tender look unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

He said confidently: "Mom, you underestimate me too much, don't you? I'm sure Qiyaya likes me, otherwise she wouldn't come to play with me so often."

"Besides, my son's figure and appearance are definitely among the top ten, if not the best on the island. Qiyaya must like my son."

Su Dingan has been in contact with Qiyaya a lot during this period and has also tested Qiyaya's attitude.

Qiyaya was obviously interested in him too.

As long as he makes a private appointment with Qiyaya when he is not busy, Qiyaya will definitely come.

However, when he thought of something, Su Dingan's expression immediately fell. He looked at his mother nervously, feeling a little conflicted.

But he still expressed his concerns.

"That mother, but there is a problem, I think it may be a bit difficult to deal with..."

Shen Yuehua was originally very happy, but when she saw her son's expression suddenly change, she worried that something might happen and her heart skipped a beat.

"What's wrong?"

"Qiyaya's father knew we were in contact, and he once talked to me..."

"Oh, what did he say to you?" Shen Yuehua hated people who left their questions unanswered.

She rudely knocked Su Dingan on the head and said through gritted teeth, "Hurry up and finish your words. Don't let me keep asking you. Are you looking for a fight?"

"Oh oh oh!" Su Dingan covered his head in pain and shrank his neck, and quickly explained.

"Qiyaya's father told me that he wanted to find a live-in son-in-law, mainly because he and his wife only have one daughter, Qiyaya, and they have never thought of marrying her off."

"And Uncle Bater is going to give all his property to Qiyaya to inherit."

"Qiyaya's mother's family also has a property that Qiyaya wants to inherit. In order to protect Qiyaya from emotional hurt and grievances, they clearly stated that they want a live-in son-in-law."

"He said that when the world is peaceful in the future, he would let Qiyaya continue the jade business and pass on the family business..."

"Mom, this is also my biggest concern. I know you definitely can't let your son become someone else's son-in-law, but your son really likes Qiyaya!"

"Mom, what should my son do?" Su Dingan's hands, which were originally holding his head, began to pull his hair unconsciously.
